Hello TarValon.Net!

I'm very excited to announce that we are hiring for the TV.Net Card Game Development Team :dance

So what does that mean? The Card Game Development Team will be a 12 month position within the Department of Marketing.

All members will be invited to brainstorm and develop all aspects of our "official" community card game. We don't know exactly what that will look like that but if you enjoy playing card games/board games or just enjoy being creative this team is the place for you. The Graphics Development Team will be developing the graphics so there's no need for you to have any design skills.

Duties and Responsibilities
  • Develop cards and game play for the TarValon.Net Card Game.
  • Test and challenge the cards throughout the development process.
  • Promote the TarValon.Net Card Game within the community.
Expectations
  • Actively engaging and participating in the Card Game Development Team forum.
  • Must be able to work to a deadline as this project will only run for 12 months with various development deadlines along the way.
  • Be tactful and considerate when discussing ideas and suggestions from other members.
Time Commitment

Must be willing to spend ~4 hours a week at this position. The ability to check on the Card Game Development Board on a regular basis (at least once every other day) is a necessity for this position.

Qualifications
  • Must have been a member of TarValon.Net for at least 6 months. Open to any rank; citizen or above.
  • Must be able to work collaboratively in a team environment.
  • Must enjoy card/table top games.
How to Apply

To apply for this position, please send an email with the subject “APPLICATION - CARD GAME DEVELOPMENT TEAM - YOUR NAME” to marketing@tarvalon.net and keeper@tarvalon.net detailing your interest in the team, any ideas you have for the TarValon.Net Card Game and why you would be a good fit.

Applications are due April 16, 2021.

If you have any questions regarding the hiring process, job requirements/expectations please feel free to ask them here or contact @Aleita Taviah directly via PM or email (marketing@tarvalon.net).

Ohhhhh. I remember when Valo had something going on a card game that was kind of based on MtG. This is exciting!

I'm super excited about this! I wouldn't be a good fit for the development team but I'm sure I'll play the heck out of it when it is finished! :D

Will the game be used as an official product that we share/sell with the greater fandom, or more of something fun for us internally?

More for us internally! There will be more information coming once the team gets to work. ;)

The focus will be on TarValon.Net rather than exclusively Wheel of Time. :pleased-1:

I have a question about this card game. What type of card game is it? Is it more like Uno, Magic: The Gathering, or Cards Against Humanity? Based on the previous card game, I am guessing it is closer to Magic, but I thought I might as well ask.

I'm honestly so excited about how much people are looking forward to this!

How this will all look in the end will depend entirely on the team that works on it, it could look similar to the previous incarnation or completely different. So if you're interested in being involved please put your hand up :pleased-1:

Why is there a 6-month membership requirement? I'm not sure what purpose it serves. New members could still provide useful graphics and game development skills, and more experienced members could balance that with site/culture knowledge.

For the first few months of a member's time here, they are getting to know the site and the community, which is what they should be doing. They are getting their bearings and still deciding whether they want to stay here. Members who have been here for 6 months have a much better idea of whether they will still be here for 12 more months to commit to this.
