My Story
As an amateur game designer myself, I wrote Card Creatr Studio to fill a need that I saw: a simple, fast program to design, store, and print cards for playtesting. Powerful programs like InDesign require hours of studying tutorials, and drag-and-drop programs like PowerPoint require a lot of work to make changes to your template or design. I hope that Card Creatr Studio helps fill the void in between.
