A vs yourself card battler is an idea I've never heard of before. Made strong cards a liability - that's cool!
Great job!
Really cool strategy design. There all some flaws tho - I can pass the turn without using anything to cancel buffs the opponent had in play. Then I was just like Attack, retaliate. Wait to be attacked, pass turn to expire retaliate in enemy. Repeat. Nonetheless I think it is a great concept and I would like to see a complete game with such mechanic. The game is really polished also
That's REALLY cool. I love how much strategy can go into something like this. Art reminds me of an old Commodore game. The simple depth of having attacks that deal different damaged based on whether the enemy is armored adds just enough complexity. This is awesome.
pretty peak, i love the idea
This was very cool! Crazy that you made something with so much complexity in 4 days! Also I love the art.
So creative!! The strategy of thinking about what you do to the enemy knowing that it will come back to you is insane! I managed to win the game after some tries, it's very addictive an fun.
There's a cheese strat in which you can just not play any card and end a turn to make the enemy loose the shield if you've played a "gain 10 shield until the end of your turn". This could be fixed by restricting the "End Turn" button to at least playing one card.
i fear i am not the best when it comes to strategical games but i looooved the colors and the artstyles so much that it made me want to keep at it until i started to make some progress!!! very fun and enticing game.
Fire emblem taught me how to win this game long ago with endless defense until they kill themselves basically. great style and idea though and it feels good to play!
Simple card game with events. I loved it! I'm keeping it since I'm into war games, and the mechanics are great. Make it for two players please ;))
I agree with the other comment that playing very defensively does seem to be by far in a way the optimal strategy. I think the base concept of the game is really solid and could be expanded in a lot of fun ways (e.g. forcing players to play x cards in a turn, allowing players to customize which cards they use). Overall though, this was a very fun game!
Pretty cool game! Pretty interesting to play around with
Pretty tricky! Really cool concept, I love the style!
That was fun. I feel like the game was a bit overly defensive, if you just played safe, you were assured to win eventually. But the UI worked well and the sounds were appropiately chunky!
