Disney strikes again, shuts down Lorcana Pixelborn webcam-organized play project

Bulgarian game dev Pavel Kolev, better known as Pavel, the creator of Disney Lorcana Pixelborn, was shot down by Disney a second time in less than a month—and the community isn’t happy about it. 

Pavel’s creation of Pixelborn before the release of Disney Lorcana‘s The First Chapter was a life raft for many players who couldn’t get their hands on physical cards due to printing and shipping issues. Heading into the fifth Lorcana set, Disney decided Pixelborn shouldn’t exist and asked Pavel to shut it down. The Bulgarian game dev complied without a fight and spawned another idea called Pixelborn Connect, a webcam platform featuring ranked play among players who already own Disney Lorcana cards. Disney quickly reached out to Pavel and “advised him not to proceed with the project or make it public,” according to the game dev.
