Great game, feels like it was made by a professional team outside of a game jam. The visuals and cutscenes are gorgeous. Everything is perfectly put together. Potential winner.

The opening sequence is on par with AA game. The card based strategy gameplay is good, although a little imprecise for troop placement. I love the sound effects that play when you mouse over menu items. Great game.

fun stuff! Really liked the art and all different abilities! Those birds were annoying XD

The game is quite fun and the artstyle is just the best! The storytelling was great and the voice acting with the opening scene just felt the absolute best, truly an immersive experience! The game would surely be great to play with an endless mode I think. 

Kudos to the team!

Amazing graphics and cutscene. The card explanation popup is not always readable if you're not playing fullscreen. Building up my army was fun. I think the gameloop / card mechanics need a bit of tweaking because you can easily win without much thinking. Great entry, awesome job!

Beautiful game and insightful gameplay.  I would suggest giving the cards slower and it seems like the card explanation is not always available.

The opening scene was amazing and the voice acting top notch.

Really impressive work on the intro cinematic, I was a bit confused at first how to play but slowly started to understand after a while. Was a very ambitious game and I enjoy the work that was put into it.

I am most impressed by the voice actor and cinematics here. Perhaps this unique asset has lent itself to the visual theme. Most impressive indeed.

However, I thought I was still looking at a scene playing out while cards were piling up. Once I figured out my role in the game, I flung them like nobody's business. This seemed to be a winning strategy.

A great credit to the creative work done here. The game itself needs a little extra polish, but it's otherwise a strong entry.

the visuals, the mechanics, the implementation, intro and outro everything is perfect, i only wish it was a bit more challenging!

This is the best intro i ever seen on gamejams since 2 years, Really great Job,  i love it! I add this entry to my collection, i hope you start a real game soon, your team synergy feels great. The game is really polished,  perfect animations, the art is insane, you will inspire me in my next projects ! i like the dark lion. Thank you

Amazing graphics. The gameplay is well balanced too. Voice acting added to the narrative. There were minor bugs, when using the UI too frantically, but nothing too serious. I only missed one thing: ability to read the card’s description - not really possible in the heat of the battle. Fortunately the cards were easy enough to learn and use reasonably efficiently :)

2 fully voiced cutscenes!? How this game is free I'll never know lol. Incredible success, not much to critique, though I did have a few issues. There's not a pause button as far as I know, and when you have 7 cards, the tooltip for the 7th card goes partly off-screen and gets cut off. Regardless, this is incredibly well done and I love pretty much everything about it!

Absolutely stunning. Huge team - amazed at what you all were able to pull off.

wow! the cutscenes blew me away. Amazing style and fun gameplay. 5 Star game for me.
maybe i am a bit biased because i am from greece :D
I managed to beat the game, this is my final score.

This is a masterpiece. Would love if it became a full game sometime and would definitely buy it as long as a bit more content was added to just make it last a bit longer.

Submitted(+4)

I was blown away be the graphics and audio. The way the card effects play out is really satisfying. For my myopic eyes the font size of the explanations of the cards were too small, though. And because of the real chaos of the game I was too anxious to pause and read them. So I just spammed effects which was fun but I couldn't form any strategy.

Great visuals and audio. Overall super solid entry, great job!

I'm sure you will be able to publish a successful game on steam if you keep doing stuff like this! This is one of the cooles gamse I've seen in a jam.

If I had to give some feedback I would add a visual sign of where the soldiers will appear on screen, like a range or area, also for the thunderbolt, sometimes I don't know where things are gonna fall, and which enemies they will attack. Also the birds are so hard to kill when I don't get any archers or thunderbolts.
