    I started making a card game based on characters created by me and my brother about half a year ago, and after watching your video tutorials on the game crafter and learning how to publish a game, I had finally brought characters that used to only live in my head out into the world. You’re a fantastic inspiration to creative people out there, keep creating man!

    Heads up, TGC's poker size are 1mm longer and wider than other standard size TCGs (Magic, Pokemon, etc). They will still fit in standard size sleeves, binders and deck boxes but might a tighter fit than usual. I can put my cards in Dragon Shield Mattes no problem but they are not as smooth as with standard cards.

    Hi Zack, just something quick I had spoken with someone at the game crafter a few months ago, it is possible to do a booster pack with 17 non holo and 1 holo cards. when creating the game you set up the normal booster pack then embed a custom game I to that pack and create a holo poker deck, simply select 17 cards in the non holo deck and 1 holo in the embedded deck, and you then get a booster pack with has non holos and contains 1 holo just like pokemon, yugioh etc, but it does bring the price up significantly

    To put foils in a deck. Create a non-foil deck then, make a foil deck. Only put them in 1 package (Tuckbox). Although I do not recommend using foils what so ever because, they're surface get scratched super easilly and they are of poor quality in general on tgc.

When you publish a tcg pack for example the game crafter will take $5 and u get $1 (pack is $6) do u have to pay them $5 to publish it before hand or when someone buys ur product the game crafter will take 5$ of the pack and u get $1

    Hey Zack! Firstly, great thorough explaining of how to use the website! I actually just officially made my first product of my TCG and even made a couple of sales recently. I have a quick question if you’re able to answer it. I love the idea of having holo cards in booster packs like other tcgs, and I know TheGameCrafter has the option for foil cards. But I do not know how to be able to combine both regular cards and holo cards in a single booster pack. If you or anyone else could help that would be extremely helpful! Amazing video as always zack! Keep up the great work and have a great life!
