Awesome art  and music

Cool music and nice game. Some more animations, even simple ones, would go a long way. Also maybe choose a good font to make it fit with the rest of the look. Good job!

Congrats on the game! I really like turn-based games in this style. I just found it a bit easy — I managed to banish on my first try without much trouble.

If you have a moment, I’d love if you could check out mine too! Play it here: https://kaijota.itch.io/graverun

I loooove the art! 

The sprites are so cool looking and the background with the shadows is super cinematic!

The concept for the combat is pretty cool and unique too!

Super impressive for only two days of work!

I managed to banish the creature first time, then struggled to do much damage on a second attempt. Being able to target who to heal (or wake up!) would have been good. How are my adventurers so rubbish, and yet the monster so accurate :D ?! I'd love to see this fleshed out after the jam and what you can do with it.

It's entertaining, but yes I would have loved to see the actions all animated out somehow. Music was fitting. I don't think it looked like your screenshot on my monitor, the health values were covered, not sure why.

It's a bug! I didn't account for different resolutions while making this, unfortunately. Going to make sure to keep it in mind for future jams, but lesson learned :)

Of course steven failed med school when I neede himXD(. What a fun game. I banished it on first try, I think you could reduce the overall HP players and the creature have to make it more interesting.

If you have time, please also feel free to check out the game I worked on, it would mean a lot.
