Nice surprise to find this today! We need a new playable app now that some of the other choices are not updated to handle Innistrad flip cards.

I've got high hopes for this. Looking forward to playing with it over the weekend.

The screenshot is very attractive... I'll fool around with it when I get home and maybe convince a friend to jump in there with me.

I have high hopes too.

Overall this app is really working well. I love the way that the Innistrad cards Transform. It works flawlessly from what I've seen so far.

Would like to have the opponents cards shown with the lands on bottom & creatures on top, near the phases track like it is for the current turn's player on his computer. As it is now, I have to put those cards opposite this for them to show the same thing, the lands on bottom & creatures on top of the window.

I know not everything is included with this but I tried to setup a connection with my LAN, but couldn't connect. I'm guessing that for now, we can only play at the VP server where I have been connecting to for these tests. I want to be able to host my own games as I did with MWS. If I'm wrong and this has been enabled, can we get instructions how to connect to our own network?

As for the card UI, would like to see a Morph option to play those type of cards to table from my hand, meaning I can choose to play the card face down but still see the info of the card without having to turn it over so my opponent could see it.

BTW, I'm conducting these tests with my Mac Pro & Mac Book Pro both running Parallels & Win XP. I also tried it on my Windows 7 machine too. All connected at the lobby of the VP server & all of them worked just fine.

I'm looking forward to what comes next. Meanwhile I will keep testing & posting when I come across anything relevant.

Great job Det!

Is it possible for your program to recognize Goblin Hero's pics from Magic Album? That would be nice.
