Not a bad game! Reminded me a lot of vampire survivors, easy to get into the gameplay loop

Nice game! If you have a moment, we'd love for you to check out our team's project too. It's called "round-and-wound" ,  hope you enjoy it! -->  /jam/gmtk-2025/rate/3780863

A little confusing to get started.  I killed myself in the starting lobby with a self arcane loop.  Then I tried playing for real and I think the gameplay has potential.  It's clearly unfinished with missing artwork, and the skills could use some explanations, but I would definitely want to play a fully fleshed out version of this game.
