A native PS Vita port of Card Wars: Adventure Time. Originally released for iOS/Android and shut down along with its servers, this port was meant to get the PC Port running on Vita hardware for a bounty.
Built with Unity 2017.4 (PSP2), based on the PC port of the decompiled game.

v3
- THIS IS A MAJOR UPDATE WTH MIGRATION TO UNITY 2018
- Game rebuilt on Unity 2018 (from 2017). This resolves prevalent GPU crashes
- If there are GPU crashes, please make a GitHub issue. I've tested this build for multiple hours on end and have not experienced a GPU crash. Feel free to make any GitHub issues about potential improvements and bugs too!
- Performance/Visuals fixes
- Boots up slightly faster due to unity 2018.
- Reduced stutters everywhere: game rescanned asset files way too often... (card frames, battle effects, spells, floop abilities, summons).
- Preload common battle effects, card art, and quest maps in loading screen.
- Card Box / Sell Cards menus optimized much better, a bit of lag with multiple cards on screen but greatly improved compared to performance previously, it actually is manageable.
- Quest map opens a bit faster and finger scrolling is slightly more improved.
- Boot music no longer crackles while the game loads.
- Attack effects no longer linger for a couple seconds on screen after damage.
- Card Wars splash screen now in place of Unity splash screen.
- Capped more particles to increase performance.
- Gameplay fixes and additions
- Face buttons (✕/○/□/△) now work in the timing minigame alongside touch.
- Fixed daily gift claiming not saving.
- New options in settings: MSAA 4x (anti-aliasing, restart to apply), prioritize timing (blacks out the 3d environment during the timing ring to reduce stuttering), 30 fps cap (don't know why I added this), toggle to disable camera shake, and an option to erase the save.
- Stamina fix: the heart now shows ∞ so you can play as much as you want. :)
- A small "Saving..." indicator appears whenever the game writes your save in the bottom right corner.
- Daily Gift fixes
- Real time clock now works with daily gift claiming.
- Broken timers from older versions can fix themselves.
- Rebalanced the reward wheel to actually be engaging for an offline game.
- Extra spins now cost 5 gems (was free on accident, oops).
- New players start with 500 coins and 10 gems.
v2
- To Do
- Reduce stutters in menu and gameplay caused by UI
- Make a menu to toggle anti-aliasing and other future performance/graphical settings
- Fixes
- Mitigated touch input loss during gameplay
- Fixed battle music not playing in Fionna & Cake quests (and a few other affected tracks)
- Removed invisible button in top right of quest map.
- Reclaimed 26MB of memory (headroom for more texture enhancements in the future)
- Upscaled more textures
- Turned up audio sampling rate (should sound better)
- Anti-aliasing enabled (MSAA 2x)
- Capped particles (reduced stuttering and mitigates chance of GPU crash)
- Minor performance improvements during gameplay
- Known Issue
- Very rare GPU crash that occurs as a result of GPU driver not responding to a call made from the game, (most likely cause is the game's GUI?)
- Happens very randomly, usually after several hours of playing on and off. (actively trying to find the root of this, I will be working on fixing this as my main focus)
- Saves are safe from updates! You don't need to worry about save data when installing this new patch and vpk.
