Hello, cadets! A new game build is hot off the press, updating the version of our engine, Godot, and the plugin we use for Steam integration. This update should fix the bugs some cadets were experiencing, where the game would start with a black screen. The latest stable build is
The Takara Cards soundtrack is finally available for purchase. Enjoy the wonderful songs composed by our bard, Bruno Ito, for a small price: View game page See you later, Cadets!
Greetings Cadets! Today's update brings several new features! Steam trading cards with beautiful concept art drawings and paintings Steam Leaderboard support For each character created, when you finish a jump (combat), your accumulated score with this character is sent to Steam.
For each character created, when you finish a jump (combat), your accumulated score with this character is sent to Steam. If the score is higher than your previous score, your position is updated in the Leaderboards.
There are currently two Leaderboards, one for Normal Mode and one for Hard Mode.
Access the in-game rankings on the second-to-last page of the Manual.
This feature was being tested for some time in the game's Open Beta, and many thanks to all the cadets who tried it out!
We've also added a page in the manual (the last one) with game statistics. Many of these have already been accounted for since Early Access!
While creating your Cadet, you can click on the Dice icon to choose the race, appearance, and reputation randomly.

More improvements to the game are in the pipeline, but I wanted you guys to test the score support first. :)
Many thanks for all the bugs and comments left on the forums.
See you later, Cadets!
After a long testing period, I've released the update in the open beta for all Cadets. It improves the game's stability during combat, among other things. The detailed list of changes is below: I've also updated the “old stable” channel with the previous version (b.107). I'm alre
The detailed list of changes is below:

I've also updated the “old stable” channel with the previous version (b.107).
I'm already working on more improvements and new features for the game inspired by some feedback from the community! :)
Until then, Cadets!

Since the last update, I've been improving the combat memory management, especially the part dealing with destroying the units.
I did this to improve the worst bug found so far: The game's soft-lock during enemy turns.
I've been testing the build with this fix for over ten days now, and the results are promising:
I've already completed the game three times and not only has the bug not appeared, but I've also noticed improvements in some systems (especially when many things happen simultaneously).
I've put build 108 with these improvements into the Open Beta. This build will stay in beta for another ten days in testing until they were made available to everyone.
Other bugs and improvements have also been added:
If you find any bugs, please report them in the forums. :)
While we test this build together, I will turn my attention and time to further improvements, inspired by your feedback.
Thanks for all the reports, Cadets!
Hello Cadets! In this update, we have the following bug fixes: Fixes for the Endless Mode map not activating/appearing at the end of a run. Fixes for cards with usage limits being able to be used in certain cases. Temporary translations for some missing texts in Russian. Thanks f
Hello Cadets!
In this update, we have the following bug fixes:
Thanks for playing and for the detailed bug reports.
Until the next update, Cadets!
Hello Cadets! Some wingmates have been experiencing bugs that “soft lock” the game, especially during a clash with the Dragons (inside the mothership). I've reversed some parts of the code that could do this in this build. I've also been investigating other (rare) cases of soft l
Hello Cadets! In today's update, we have more substantial improvements to the game. Starting with changes to how a Jump ends: A jump now ends automatically when the number of ENEMY units (Dragon Drones) reaches ZERO, ignoring Meteors and other units in the board. The player will
A jump now ends automatically when the number of ENEMY units (Dragon Drones) reaches ZERO, ignoring Meteors and other units in the board. The player will also receive the “CLEAN JUMP” Rank bonus even if there are Meteor units and the like on the board.
In addition, when a combat ends automatically, all the Scrap units on the board are drawn to the player's ship.
These combat changes take away the boredom that some cadets felt at the end of combat.
You can now choose which reputation to change, but Cursed reputations appear to change only if the gods have MERCY on you. ;)
In addition to the bugs fixed in some Ork cards in the last update, I've made some changes to their starter deck. In addition, a new Ork Maneuver has been created: Orks Sword, a frontal electric attack similar to Jump Shot.
Details on the changes:
Hello Cadets! Some fellow orks have encountered problems with their ships, especially their damage and jump systems. We've decided to release a quick update to fix these: The Staff ship's weapon, Mana Turret, now deals damage on the Tile (as it should). Fixed bugs where players c
Hello Cadets! Today we have just a small series of bug fixes: Attempt to fix a bug that prevents players from switching languages. Attempt to fix a bug that would crash combat. Fixed bug where Fair Trade card would not exhaust when used. Unicorn Cargo Delivery achievement now unl

Over the last few days, I've been collecting feedback from various players, both on the forums and in Reviews (good or bad).
Many thanks for all the criticism and comments, here are the first improvements based on your feedback.
Two new graphics options, one to change the resolution of the game in Windowed mode and the other to darken the effects of the game's transitions, which burn the eyes of some Cadets:
I've also made improvements to the “Steal” mechanic of the “Thief” reputation:
It should now be easier to play the card over the reputation. In addition, I've made some small balances to the mechanics, including it being easier to steal now, but with a limitation of only being able to steal once in a given sector (it resets if the cadet goes back and forth in the sector).
Balances have also been made to the Reputation Exchange mechanic, so that it should now be more difficult for a “Cursed” reputation to appear in the exchange.
Last but not least, the Achievement related to issuing an SOS should now also unlock when Ejecting from the Ship.
This game was made by a tiny team of three people (me being the main developer) plus the musician, and with very little money. That coupled with the fact that the game didn't sell well during early access should give you an idea of how much care and hard work we put into it.
Many thanks to all the positive comments and criticisms given to the game!
Take care and see you in the next update, Cadets!

I've been eagerly anticipating the 1.0 launch of Takara Cards ever since I first laid eyes upon it. Its neon-stained, '80s retro-futuristic style immediately caught my attention, and the pitch of a tactical deckbuilding space RPG about chasing a band of thieving space dragons secured my interest soon after. After nearly two years in early access, the full release of this card-battling roguelike is finally here, and developer Post Mortem Pixels has a big Steam sale discount to celebrate the launch.
Takara Cards is finally out of Early Access, check out our launch trailer: It's been almost two years of Early Access , with dozens of updates of various sizes, all heavily influenced by our Cadet players! The game has changed a lot during this time and we can only thank our play
It's been almost two years of Early Access, with dozens of updates of various sizes, all heavily influenced by our Cadet players!
The game has changed a lot during this time and we can only thank our players, and our Publisher:
Grab the Games!
We're offering the game at a heavy discount to celebrate the launch and a new update that supports Steam achievements!
We are still in the process of revising the localizations and updates with language fixes are still to come, as well as balancing updates and minor improvements.
There's usually at least one game in early access I'm waiting on the full release of before I try. At the moment, I'm holding off on anime finance sim Stonks-9800 . But it's easy to miss a release when there are so many games coming in and out of early access all the time, often
There's usually at least one game in early access I'm waiting on the full release of before I try. At the moment, I'm holding off on anime finance sim Stonks-9800. But it's easy to miss a release when there are so many games coming in and out of early access all the time, often without advance notice. So let me give you a heads-up on one of them: board game-esque deckbuilder Takara Cards, which leaves early access on January 17...

Hello Cadets! The first batch of new languages is here! Takara Cards has been localized for the following languages: French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish, Thai and Turkish! The interface has also been adapted to accommodate the new localizations and has al
And speaking of Steam Deck, we've updated the engine (Godot) to the newest version of the 3 series (3.6) and with that Steam Deck support has improved even more.
Minor improvements and bug fixes:
Some translations are still being done but will be added faster, as most of the adjustments needed to support them are already in place.
I'm also working on Steam integration and translations.
The game is almost ready, thanks for all your support! :D

This update moves the game to Godot 3.6, with minor improvements and fixes:
Remember that to access this update, you need to participate in the open BETA by going to the game's properties on Steam.
This Beta is already more stable than the main branch of the game, but I decided to wait for the localizations to finish before making it final.
Thanks for all the support!
Another update to our Open Beta: We've added the last songs needed for the game's release: the Orks' combat music! In addition, French has been added to the supported languages. Known bugs: French and Italian have some bugs in the icons in some texts in the game, causing the icon
We've added the last songs needed for the game's release: the Orks' combat music!
In addition, French has been added to the supported languages.
French and Italian have some bugs in the icons in some texts in the game, causing the icons not to appear. This will be fixed by the final release of the localization update.
Until the next update, Cadets!
