This game was very creative and I loved how simple it was to understand! Phenomenal game!

What's not to love about a cute goblin boppin' on their enemies? I really appreciated the simple controls. Also, the little dying "ah!" noises made me laugh. Overall a great time!

The idea was creative and executed well, but most importantly, the gameplay was fast-paced and actually quite enjoyable! Music's a banger too.

Great fun!

Spent >30 min and would go for more. Great potential to expanding the game and mechanics

Very cool, feels inspired by Gladiator Arena game.

Got the boss!! I wish there were more options now xD god I looped around so many times, but once I explored all options it became repetitive until I killed the boss : ) but nice job, I spent quite some time on it ^^

Yeah, we also made the 6 and 7 loops way too hard, so the risk was not worth the reward. We have a build ready with these fixes, but will have to wait until the jam finishes.

Submitted

exactly my thought

Developer

thanks we will be updating post jam and have a ton of more content on the way!

Submitted

Really great. Wish there was more to buy. You should also add an auto loop button, for that idle/clicker vibe.

Developer

The Idle mode is already developed and waiting for the jam to finish so it can be updated.

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

The polish on this game is great although I wish there was a fast forward button as the gameplay is a little slow and starts to drag. That said the game is fun and a good semi-idle game.

Developer

Hi! If you press S you can speed up the gameplay.

Submitted

ooh, I good to know! Will play again if I have time.

Really fun loop. Meaningful decisions to be made about looping or investing in stats, so great bite-sized strategy. I do wish I could know more specifically what the stats / strengths / weaknesses were for each unit so I could plan better though. Overall, ton of fun that I ended up playing for a long time!

Developer

glad you liked it. We are excited to continue development as well.

This was satisfying and great! The final boss was hard, but the time I won I had so much health left lmao, I may have over-prepared after my ruinous losses...

Well yes sir, I do like gambling.
This is a very well made idle battler. 


Thoughts for expansion:
- More levels (probably obvious)
- More songs (The current one is good but with a repetitive gameplay loop a variety will shine)
- Individual character progression (raise the stakes!)

Well done!

Developer

thanks for the  feedback. yeah we are working on scope plans long term now. but all of this is on the board for next so dont worry!

Submitted

Super fun! I have no idea how to tell which units are better at what, but loved the tension of running another loop

Submitted

Cool game! Loved the upgrade mechanic and the "don't upgrade for more rewards" mechanic as well, I wish there was a way to see what the difference was between each goblin!

Artstyle is pretty good!

Great Job!

Submitted

Cool game, really nice interpretation of the theme. I enjoy the risk reward and measuring how strong, you are or pushing on, although losing all my gold when i get greedy makes me sad ;( Overall really cool! Would like to see a little UI indicator for game speed. Thanks for making it

Submitted

Really well made and polished, a solid enough idea that seems easy to expand upon 

Submitted

Wow! Excellently polished execution and great gameplay loop. This is so impressive!

Submitted

Clean, polished, minimalistic, and satisfying! I really enjoyed it and would love to see more levels!

Submitted

FIREE!!🔥

Interesting take on the theme. It was fun to upgrade and the art and sounds were good!
