Fake Trading Card Game

Being a One-Punch Man fan, I simply had to create the legendary FTCG card Punchito 🤜💥

One year ago this project was just a spinning trading card in three.js. I built the first animation in @v0 out of pure curiosity: “Can I pull this off?” That experiment turned into a whole product — catalog, profiles, public pages, a CMS, wallet integrations, and a design system that kept stretching every day. AI helped us iterate faster: trying new styles, improving the spin, speeding up image loading. We hit limits too: holographic effects were too heavy for mobile, 2D cards felt too flat, and tools wouldn’t let us swap textures the way we needed. We asked @splinetool for API texture swapping — and they actually shipped it. Then @ilyakazakov rebuilt the rotation with a newer GPT model and suddenly our cards had real thickness. We pushed the new version live and it just felt right. Yesterday I was fixing a couple of bugs and noticed the preview still lagged. Switched image loading to async (again with a nudge from AI) and the cards now appear noticeably faster. All of this from one simple question a year ago: “What if I try to make a spinning card?”
