I really like this idea. 
I think the UI holds this one back the most. I clicked a handful of different times, and didn't get the results I expected. If you flush out this game and polish it, it could go wild!

What an interesting concept for the game jam! Just some suggestions for improvement:

  • It would be good if there are some special cards. Exp: Poison (poison enemy and deals x damage to the enemy), Burning (same as poison), or some skill cards like turn speed x2 so your unit will perform the action twice before the enemy perform once etc.
  • Unlock different cards after each battle. After defeating an enemy, allow player to choose maybe 1 out of 3 cards and they can use it for the rest of the battle etc. This introduce progression and the more you progress, the stronger you are and maybe you can combine different moves to make combo etc.

Overall, its a very nice game with amazing idea and you did a very great job!

Nice game! I could have used a little more variety in cards or been able to more freely swap some things but great idea non the less!

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you liked it! Yes, it is in our plan to create more cards and mechanism!

Fun game - could see this as a mobile title

Developer

Thanks! Glad you think the core concept is fun to play!

What a lovely idea! I absolutely love the art in your game! It's a bit of a shame that the start menu feels a bit unpolished, I think themed UI buttons would have made a world of difference in terms of the first impression. The timer slider could also go from 0.3 to 2 secs instead of 1 to 5, 1 still feels a bit slow, especially when battles drag on :) That said I really like the idea of the game, and I hope you develop it further.  Keep up the great work! 

Developer

Thanks for playing the game and leaving the feedback!! I am glad you like the game idea and surprised that you found 1s is still too fast LOL. When I test run it, I had to enable a debugging pause button xD. We are planning to expand the game content and revisiting design after this, and also seriously consider all feedback! Hopefully, we'll bring y'all a full game in the near future!

It's an awesome concept! I'd love to see a full, more polished version of this game! Overall I had fun, it is a bit junky from time to time but it's a good game :DDD

Developer(+1)

Thank you for trying this out! Glad you liked the idea. Yes, we came up everything from scratch in a short time and didn't have time to fit in many planned contents. We do plan to fix all the bugs and expand the content after the voting period!

I like sound when slashing and mechanic not difficult to understand.
If possible, can you please vote my game and leave a comment too.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and leaving your comments! Sure I will find some time checkout your game today. Btw I really like you art from the first glance. It reminds me a lot about Risk of Rain and The Bindings of Issaac!.

Felt very slow to me, but I hadn't realized what the speed dial actually did for a while. Even past that, the gameplay admittedly feels kind of shallow with everything revolving around the same few basic cards, and only being able to attack two times a turn at most (strike + rewind) made fights take a while even with the speed-up. Good art with some fun ideas- if you want to do anything with it after the game jam, it could make for a pretty good deckbuilder. Some SFX would go a long way, also.

Developer(+1)

Hey thanks for trying it out and leaving the feedback!! Yes you are absolute right about the potentials of growing the card deck content. This is our plan as well! We plan to revisit the design, add more cards and a lot of contents after this!

Creativity: Awesome idea, and well executed

Enjoyment: Fell good to play, and was easy to understand after you get the hang of it

Narrative: Has some, but is lacking any depth

Artwork: Awesome! Looks great

Audio: Music is great, but some SFX would be nice to break it up. 

All and all, a fun game, but there is some room for improvement. However, the dev set out to create a game, and they accomplished that goal. I'd give it a 7/10

Love the game. Wish there were like slashing sounds

Developer

Thanks for playing and leaving your feedback! Yes we didn't have time to add more SFX during the jam but it is definitely our plan when actually completing and polishing this game next!

Great artwork and cool concept. I literally got stuck in like a ten minute loop on a single battle though LOL I must not have understood the mechanics correctly

Developer

Lol very glad to hear you like this concept! Thanks for playing and leaving the comments. Yeah, the current card deck is pretty simple, so you might likely have to fight the enemy multiple rounds to win lol.

great game! my game shares some mechanics with yours, but takes a different approach.

Developer

Thank you for trying it out! How fancy we share the similar idea. I will find some time to try out your game today.
