Hello VAs! We see you!

We have a ton of characters we’ve yet to cast as we work on the beta and get some audition write ups ready, pretty much all of these champs are going to have to find their voice soon!

So keep an eye out, Scryers 🧿

More #cardart for #IsekaiShowdown and @scryingeyestudios.bsky.social!

This is "Ceviche de Pulpo" (Octopus Ceviche), a traditional dish from Peru and Chile! It consists of chunks of octopus, diced chiles, thinly-sliced red onions, marinaded in cilantro and citrus juices.
#indiegame #gameart #foodart
A glass cup, filled with chunks of octopus, diced serrano peppers, fresh cilantro, and sliced red onions, sits on a wooden table. Beside it sits a whole lime, a lime wedge, a hibiscus flower, and Chilean bellflower (the national flower of Chile). The background shows a sunny beach, with rolling, blue waves and a rocky promontory in the distance.

Customizable card backs have also been made!
We're aiming to have 7 card back palettes to choose from hopefully for the demo.

Here are some of the examples below

Been a minute Scryers.

We have some updates - 5/1/2025

Walter is now in playtesting - he follows Carmen, Clarissa, Fernando, and Silas
A single player in-engine demo is in the works. So far we're running mirror matches with Carmen with the additional champions to follow.

Hello! I am a Director for a game in VERY early development called Isekai Showdown. I am working with my other director @sheikaharts.bsky.social. Our team makes up @scryingeyestudios.bsky.social!

Our goal is to create a game that simulates the vibe of fighting games in a card based combat system!

✨Welcome to the Byway, Champions✨

No. 01 - Carmen Cardenas
Homeworld: Chile, Earth

A girl from a humble universe, Carmen might seem like underdog in the Astral Tournament, but she's more than capable of going toe-to-toe with the superhuman.

#IsekaiShowdown
A young woman with tan skin, blue eyes, brown hair pulled back with a scrunchie and bright yellow bangs. She's wearing blue and yellow athletic wear and has her feet in wraps. A deep blue banner to the right reads - No. 01 Carmen Cardenas

Oh hi influx of new people!
I'm Gaige, I'm a queer, 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him), character designer, illustrator, game dev, and disability advocate (Multiple Sclerosis).
I'm currently working with @scryingeyestudios.bsky.social on Isekai Showdown - a card game that's also a fighting game! I hope you like my work 💗
A young woman dressed in blue and yellow athletic wear. She has hibiscus tattoos on her shoulders and a wave tattoo on her side. She has dark hair and blonde bangs, pulled into a ponytail. She seems to be sitting beneath the surface of deep, open, ocean water, looking up as light shines through the water. Two women laying head to head in a field of glowing white lilies. The first is a younger woman with sleek, dark violet hair pulled into two long twin braids. She is dressed in maroon techwear and holding a handmade stuffed elephant. The other is an older woman, dressed in a red, black, gold, and white habit, appearing to be a lady of the cloth. A slightly older man with cropped black hair, dressed in a black, dark green, bronze, and red uniform, gearing up to swing a heavy twin-bladed sword in an attack. A young woman with white hair dressed in a punk-style, cut up, sukeban school uniform, holding a baseball bat with barbed wire around it. She's sliding back as if deflecting an attack.

"Then what is it?"
"Just water."

Carmen, a young, tan woman with blue eyes, hibiscus tattoos on her shoulders, dark hair and yellow bangs pulled into a ponytail. She is wearing a blue and yellow swim top and has a few bandages on her face. She is sitting just below the surface of what seems to be the open ocean as air bubbles surround her. She has a reflective expression.

Now that our Core 20 have their key art done for the alpha, I've moved to the remaining 20 champs (which we'll need considering 5 are being playtested and balanced rn!) It's been fun stuff :3 so here's Daiyu and Katarina!

More Key Art for the alpha characters for #IsekaiShowdown
CO-13, Malis, and Vivian were 3 characters from the very first stream we did that sparked this whole game project to begin with so it's cool to see how they've grown up!
#CharacterDesign #GameDev #TCG
Key art of CO-13, a cyborg character dressed in white, ice blue, and black techwear. He's covered in mechanical apparatus and gauntlets that emit a bright electric blue light. Key illustration of Malis, a warrior woman dressed in lose fitting and flowing gold and purple garments. She is also equipped with a pair of arm blades attached to her gold gauntlets. Key art of Vivian, a curvy and playful plague doctor witch. She's dressed in a risque purple and black outfit, large patchwork purple witch hat, and holding glowing pink and green potions.

Sanguine, sharp, and stunning - Tatyana Malakov is a calculated monster hunter, blood magus, and one of our core champions ready to join the rest of the Astral Tournament's roster 🩸

#IsekaiShowdown
Key art of Tatyana Malakov - a young woman with long, straight cut, dark hair, red eyes, and runic tattoos under her leather armor. She is gripping a scythe with a lunar motif in one hand and summoning a swirl of blood magic in her other hand.

Huh...a lot of people really did not care for this take! And that's fine, you're not obligated to stick around 💗

To those that did, though? We appreciate you and hope you like our very human made anime card game!

Now, more than ever, we feel that human made artwork is really important to stress in games. A lot of care, effort, drafts, revisions, and hundreds of hours of work has been put into all of our characters, and it would be a disservice to the team and to the players to give them anything less 💗
A splash illustration of a core group of characters - Carmen the protagonist, Walter the gambler, Keiko the street punk, Abigail the magical girl, Fernando the luchador, and Silas the vampire cowboy (who is out in the daytime shshshsh be quiet if Astarion Baldersgate3 can be out in daylight with magic so can our magic vampire cowboy), all gathered around Carmen, telling a story on a graffiti covered wall that makes references to the other characters. An illustration of Keiko, a sukeban, dressed in a navy and red, cut up school uniform with punk accessories. She is holding a baseball bat and sliding back in a defensive stance. A key art illustration of Sister Victoria, a battle nun clad in a black, gold, and red habit, holding on to a mace that acts as her censer, dispersing deep violet incense. A key illustration of Abigail, a magical girl with pink hair and a white, blue, and gold regalia, readies her rose rapier for a strike.

Hey Scryers,

So we've had people reach out to us in the past few weeks who are interested in joining the art team, and while we love that, please do not submit portfolios that contain GenAl images. Human made work is very important to our art team so we just want to make that clear.

Thank you.

Good morning Scryers!

While we’re chipping away at the alpha testing, we have once again decided to open the Isekai Showdown community discord to the public! We’ll be doing most announcements there first!
(Also any N/F/T solicitations will be banned! We don’t do that here)

We're a bit slow on the casting atm, because we're currently working on importing the build of the TCG into the Alpha for playtesting/balancing, so we've all been a little quiet because we're so so preoccupied!

Finished Abigail's Key art today for #IsekaiShowdown
She's our designated magical girl character and I absolutely loved making her design 🌹

#characterdesign #TCG #gamedev
Illustration of a magical girl archetype character. Her skin is dark, eyes are aqua, and hair is long and soft pink. She is dressed in a white, gold, and light blue military style magical girl gown with a small red and gold crown floating over her head. She is holding a rapier with a rose shaped hilt as if she's about to strike.
