character ideas for Cardball.

the basic idea of cardball is that it's a "four card tcg" that simulates a two-on-two basketball game via trick-taking with playing cards. win tricks to earn steps. finish a round with a 2-step lead to get a basket, or a 4-step lead to get a dunk.

yes, penny is here just because I want her to say "get dunked on" at some point.

Absolutely stupid, but has that chic nerd energy that I absolutely dig. 😆

I'm not going to spend any money on it, but I am very glad that this is a thing.

It strikes me that anyone done an art challenge like #FediArt52 or #Inktober52 could save up their images and print a deck of playing cards at the end.

* I've been quixotically designing a vector font in R for use with R's `fillStrokeGrob()` to make #PlayingCards indices and pips
* One reason to make my own is that I couldn't find an existing playing card font which had matching (narrow) #Chess symbols so I've taken a stab at making my own.
* I've been experimenting with rendering the horse representing a knight from the front
* Also tried to make the pawn, bishop, queen, and king look okay when used as a meeple's hat in a face card image
