For those of you who don’t know me yet, hello! I’m Alvin, the creator of Champions of Miyandir (CoM).
The idea for Miyandir started all the way back in 2009. It began as a world building project, then developed into a full IP, serving as the basis for other personal projects, such as illustrations that I shared on DeviantArt back in the day. I started learning programming near the end of 2019 and used my newfound skills to start coding CoM, a card game based off of the IP I had started in 2009.
One of the big reasons I created CoM was born out of an experience I had years ago. It happened during a time when I was becoming more and more frustrated with the decisions being made by the company developing my favorite card game. It was clear that they were driven by increasing profits each year, rather than by a desire to make a truly good game.
Things got worse rather than better as time went on, and at some point, I realized that my once favorite card game was no longer the game for me. It was a sad realization, but at the same time, I also realized something else: I didn’t have to passively accept the way things are; I could be the change I wanted to see.
Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to creating a card game that’s built upon real passion for the art form and a desire to delight players.
If you, like me, are tired of power creep, bloated card pools, and excessive financial barriers, I truly hope you find joy in playing CoM. If you’d like to play test our alpha, or if you just want to support the game and learn more, we would love to have you over on our Discord server. We’ll be releasing the alpha very soon, and we’ll announce it on Discord as soon as we do! Hope to see you there.
—Alvin
