GameDev.tv Game Jam Submission: "Fate of a Dying Star"

Theme: "Death is only the Beginning"

You are a forgotten god that is about to be subjugated by the Elder Gods. You will prevail against them only if you can ascend into the pantheon of the Elder Gods yourself. Only then will you show them how powerful you actually are!

Disclaimer:

I was unfortunately interrupted due to a death in the family. I had to rush the upload. I was unable to play test before a bunch of last minute changes to add a rushed tutorial.

I was not able to put in the auto-draw system or restrict burning cards.
