What it does
On reveal: The first card you play next round costs 1 less.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 2003
An electronics retailer in Niwot, Colorado, that makes and sells microcontroller boards and breakout boards.
Nathan Seidle built the shop's website over a winter break while a student at the University of Colorado Boulder and launched it in January 2003. Its products are open-source hardware, and in 2011 it formed an education department for local schools.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2003 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2003, then plays a short scene. Want SparkFun Electronics in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
