KAG Steam Trading Cards

Its been a bit since KAG was released unto steam. A lot more players have bought the game, fallen in love, and so on. It seems only fit that with the options KAG now has with Steam, wouldn't it be a cool idea to have some trading cards?

Simple idea:

Have the community come up with some ideas for trading cards. Ones like Knight, Archer, Builder, Bison, Shark would be great. Rewards for collecting them all could be community created too. A theme making contest could be held or something along those lines. As for the emoticons you get as a reward, well thats pretty obvious in my opinion.

Also, if I remember right, every card sold on the community market has a % taken out that is given to Valve and the creators of the game. So not only does it provide advertisement of the game, it brings in a bit of money too.

Thoughts and ideas?

Don't see why there shouldn't be trading cards, good idea.

 

I thought the "Suggestions & Ideas" category was for In-Game suggestions only? All of the suggestions listed in the "List of Suggestions" thread are in-game suggestions. Thought that this would be best left for general discussion.

 

It would be cool, but I think Valve only lets bigger games have cards.

160 Games according to that link.

But when I search which games have it using steam advanced search it comes up with 443.

When scrolling there are many many games I have never seen before.

 

I dont know, but in the end, the cards won't happen unless the devs choose to do so.

 

Just checked and the Devs get 10% of anything sold on the steam community market.

 

It could be possible.

According to Steam Trading Cards FAQs-

I have a game on Steam, how can my game participate?
"Contact your Steam Account Manager for details on how to get your game into the program."

Even so what art direction should the cards be?

Pixels?





As seen from the main site.

These are humorous for the record.

Comic style similar to KAG web-comic by xiaojin67?

Or use the existing art from KAG Banner?
Like the promo art you see with the knight, builder, and archer on the main site.

 

I'm pretty sure Geti already said somewhere on the announcements they were working on it.

 

Instead of adding Steam Trading Cards to the list of things the devs need to do. Why not just let the community do it? Backgrounds, emoticons, trading cards, and so on can all be made by the community. Then everything else is left up to the devs, which really would only be getting steam to approve it and the tasks that go along with it.

 

I totally agree.

 

True tho.
