    LÖVE is an awesome 2D game framework for Lua.

  • Godot Card Game Framework

    A framework which comes with prepared scenes and classes to kickstart your card game, as well as a powerful scripting engine to use to provide full rules enforcement.

  • Godot [0] is super intuitive, so I recommend it wholeheartedly. And then you ought to look at the Godot Card Game Framework [1], which I've also used for a uni project.

    The author has a couple of examples (check their Github repo), which you can play online [2][3]. Also, join the Discord (check the repo for a link). The community is very friendly and helpful (just be sure to learn Godot first, though).
