Featherlight Card Game and similar items

Pauly the Potoo bird has fallen out of his nest! Slightly dizzy, Pauly regains consciousness on the floor, surrounded by masses of shimmering feathers. In Featherlight, you help Pauly put his collection of feathers back in order, ideally scoring more for your assistance than anyone else. In more detail, each feather card in your hand can earn you points, based on what's in your hand, and which feathers are in the nest at game's end. Each feather color has similar scoring conditions, with slight variations from feather to feather. Some may want feather sets, while some may want odd or even numbers of feathers of a certain color. The more complex the card is to score, the more points you can earn. During the game, you swap cards to affect both your hand and the central nest, perhaps taking a card an opponent wants, perhaps bluffing desire for a card so that someone else takes it, thereby revealing what you actually wanted. The game ends as soon as the last card is drawn from one of th What makes Featherlight unique is the shared nest. You're not just managing the cards in your hand but competing with your opponents to manage those central cards that affect everybody's points. Maybe your interests align, and you can keep the card that you want available. Maybe you take the card your opponent desperately needs. Maybe you can even bluff an opponent into taking a useless card, revealing the card you needed underneath it! The game ends as soon as the last card is drawn from one of the two draw piles. The player who drew the last card still gets to finish their turn, then the final scoring takes place, based on the final nest arrangement.
