Hearthstone Minion Generator
A downloadable generator
A generator for "balanced" Hearthstone-minions that uses Kate Compton's Tracery language.
Written in Python 2.7 with the Tracery Python-port, this generator generates a minion name, stats, card text, card class, and minion tribe each time the code is run. The card text generation covers a large variety of effects found in Hearthstone, from various Battlecries, Deathrattles, Passive Abilities, and even Cost-Reduction effects.
I wanted to output the generated text to a file or image, but time- and difficulty-constraints prevented me from doing so. (The screenshots shown were created through http://www.hearthcards.net/ using the stats generated through my code)
An attempt was made to keep cards from being nonsensical, but since it's a random generator, that is not always the case.
Created by Joe Crimi for ProcJam 2018 in WPI's CS525 Computational Creativity & Procedural Content Generation class.
