Combat By Trial is a deck building auto-battler with a litigious twist.
The game was made for the Github Game Off 2022 game jam,  the theme being cliché.

Made by:
Aidan Sean Tesselaar - Game Programming
Sam Craske - Infrastructure, Backend Programming
Will Harder - Music

Source Code

Create a deck of 7 cards with your available funds in the Discovery phase, then watch as your legal offense battles somebody else online in the Battle phase!
Cards are played left to right, and the player with the highest value card in their first position goes first.
These cards have abilities that typically modify your/the opposing council's Credibility directly or interact with evidence and witnesses to do so.
The more credible lawyer at the end of the case is declared the victor!
