Cards

Cards are the core of the demo. Every card references a Skill that runs when the card is played, and the three card types differ in how that Skill behaves.

How cards are built​

Every card's Skill points at a small Repository of Stats composed from a shared library in Stats/Cards/General. Generic Keys such as Damage, EnergyCost, Block, or CardType are filled in with reusable, pre-named value Stats (Damage_6, EnergyCost_1, CardType_Attack, and so on). A small set of generic Effects — AttackDamage, Block, EnergyCost, etc. — read those Keys dynamically and apply them, so the same Effect is reused by every card of that kind; only the composed Stats change per card. Cards that need something the shared library can't express add their own Effects and Stats on top, described in that card's Implementation section below.
