Blosharper: Battle of Blossoms is my roguelike deckbuilder built around Korean Hwatu cards. You assemble scoring combinations, use trick skills to change your options, and try to beat each roundโs target. Its card-shark noir setting frames decisions about your hand and the skills you build around it.
The game is built with TypeScript, HTML, and CSS. Cards, menus, and the table are DOM elements; Vite builds the application, and Electron packages it for desktop. It is a shipped game made with the same tools I use for the web.
Tools developed alongside the game
- byteguard packages JavaScript bundles in a binary format to discourage casual inspection.
- headerless removes selected binary-asset headers during builds and restores them at runtime.
- stovesdk.js provides unofficial Node.js and Electron bindings for the STOVE PC SDK.
- l10n-c helps people and coding agents edit and check locale files.
The gameโs source repository is private. These four tools are public and MIT-licensed.
