Working on some isometric procedural generation.
This is a large map (100x100) with 64px x 48px tiles.
I start with Perlin Noise based placement.
Then I highlight separate regions.
Then a couple Cellular Automata passes.
Then culling small regions.
Then connecting final regions

I've developed a card library for ExcaliburJS.
And I'm now using it to make a bare bones draw poker demo.
Thanks to @kenney.nl for the card assets for prototyping my library!
