Really impressive game! The combat itself feels good, the classes are nicely distinct, and the whole trust and betrayal system is a great fit for the theme. My cleric apparently decided she liked the enemy team better during the second fight and started healing them and attacking my mage instead, which got a laugh out of me. :-D

The presentation is fantastic too. The character art, UI and overall polish are way beyond what I’d normally expect from a jam game.

My main issue is the length of the fights. Everyone feels like they have a bit too much HP, so battles tend to drag on longer than they need to. Cutting that down by maybe 20-30% would probably make the pacing feel much better without losing the tactical side. I also wasn’t completely sure I understood all the finer details of the trust system, but the core idea works really well.

Very impressive overall.

Incredible, visuals, audio and idea! I could not find much utility in some abilities, for example the fighter's war cry, because lowering your party's trust can be incredibly dangerous. But other than those few, the game was pretty well balanced. Great job!

Cool game! Great job! Love the visuals!

Very good visual. but the HP maybe too much. it make a round become too long.

Visuals are insanely polished and it was impressive the work you guys managed to do with a team this big. It was frustrating how long the enemies were taking to die, though. I don't know if I missed something. Other than that, amazing job!

It is an amazing game done by a whole team and you can tell.
 
I see the inspiration from other games and how it was placed efficiently on it.

Amazing how much you managed to achieve in 7 days.

I love the character art and the game feels good!

It definitely has potential to build upon!

Wow, very impressive. I was not expecting such a thorough system in just a week! The art was great too; great job! 

Good job, beautifull art and audio, gamep play was fun, I love Darkest dungeon alike. The text boxes with the tutorial could be slightly better, though.

Nice take on the theme, and it adds quite an interesting factor to the combat. Sometimes the enemy lineup can be so strong that my party gets wiped out pretty easily. Really impressive work overall!

the audio and visual presentation is really great.

Really loved the art!

The music and art are very high quality.

The design aligns well with the jam theme and deals with an important factor for groups of mercenaries that isn't explored enough. I would like to comment however that equating payment with trust is oversimplifying it. That is acceptable for a video game, of course, but just pointing it out. For example - if I pay someone more than they deserve (not fair) probably everyone would get suspicious (less trust). 

There are a few technical issues I noticed:

• Does the portrait position indicate who is on the front line? If yes - it would be great to be able to modify it. In my situation the mage was at the front and was most frequently attacked.  Which does not make sense to me because I also hired a heavy but his portrait was at the back.
• It's not clear how to use the convince action - I assumed that it would work the same way as the other special abilities...
• The payment tutorial screen should disappear if the Pay button is pressed

I'm a fan of tactical games so thank you. Good luck!

trust can be increased and decreased in veries ways <=== various

overpaying increased trust <=== increases

Great submission! The mecanic of trying to convince enemies to join your team is a great idea, the combats turn out well even though i hav'nt understood everything, the artistic design is on another level, it's really immersive, the charadesigns are awesome.

good game
