the style is SOOO CUTE. it reminds me a little of adventure time, or that era of cartoons!!!!
Thank you! Lots of inspiration from that hehe!!
I LOVED this one! The difficulty was hard but not too hard and the art?? I'm BAFFLED by how high quality the art is and just how many types of enemies are here! Amazing!!
Thanks for playing! :)
Ohhh, I liked that! I've never played an auto-battler before, but I liked it (especially with the roguelite element to it)! There's not much for me to say. The art is great, the music is charming, and it's just challenging enough. Loved it!
Thank you so much!
Fun battler. Very cool art, animation, sounds, and music. Great job!
Thank you!
I liked it a lot! The art is super nice, and the game idea is really cool — it was a lot of fun! The KFC bucket was a genius idea!
If you have a moment, I’d love if you could check out mine too!

Watch the gameplay on YouTube:
Thank you! Checking it out now :)
Not the Spicy Nugget turning into KFC buckets. Favorite character btw. Super fun game! I enjoyed the autobattler aspect!
I love him too! Thank you for playing!
This is a very cool game that can definitely be used as a template to build a bigger game out of. The artwork looks really good. With more variety in enemies, upgrades, etc. this would have high replayability value.
Yeah it would be cool with more enemies! Thank you for playing :)
Nice work and this artwork <3 ! i love !
Thank you!
AMAZING! I was hooked from the start. Very polished.
Thank you!
Awesome artwork! Very solid auto battler with roguelike mechanics! Could definitely see this expanded into a complete experience with more upgrades and unlockables with each death! Very cooll!
If we had more time it would be cool to have more enemy types! Thanks for playing :)
The art style and gameplay is actually crazy good for the time you guys were given.
Like others have said the gameplay is super smooth and I hadn't encountered any bugs or issues.
Super well done, amazing job!!!
Thank you so much!
Incredible work, Had me hooked the whole way through. Smooth gameplay, no obvious bugs, and a fun loop. Wish there were more upgrades for souls.
Thanks! We really wanted a more fleshed out upgrade system too, but it was the main thing that had to be cut in the short timeframe.
Loved the art style, creature design, and humour of this game - especially Sir Loin and the Spicy Nuggets ❤️🔥
The progression loop of upgrading through attempts was also really well done to keep me invested as a player to try and defeat all 15 rooms - awesome work to your Team ^_^
Thank you so much :) Spicy Nuggets was probably the funniest to draw, so I'm glad he's getting lots of love.
Love this!
Would love if you could check out my game
Thank you! Will have a look :)
This is the longest I've played a game in this jam, so kudos to your team! I love the art style, and the names of some of the enemies (Tempaws Fugit is genius, whoever thought of that). I would love a way to skip loot, or have currency as an alternative, as I felt I had a pretty good team but ended up just filling my bar with random creatures because there was no way of skipping.
Ultimately great job though!
Agreed! If we had more time it would have been good to see your current collection during the looting phase so you know what you have for stocking up for future runs as well. Skip loot and currency instead would've been good options!
Addicitve game. You did somethig really good there! Though, I felt like I got OP quite quickly - increase the enemy's difficulty ramping perhabs. Though, balancing is a lot to ask for a 5 day jam. Awesome work!
Yeah we wish we could have done a bit more balancing! It's good that you found the OP build but also not as fun as it could be if you did! Thank you for playing.
Creative, funny, visuals and music went well with the vibe, entertaining, defiantly keeping up with the theme 10/10! This has got to be the best I have seen from this game jam I could not put it down well done!
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're glad people are enjoying it :)
Got absolutely addicted, I love everything about this, I'm a sucker for caves and introverted evil wizard guys. The play on words for the title, the chicken turning into fried chicken when they die. Truly creative and amazing, especially given the time frame. I can't wait to see more!!
Thank you so much, the time frame was very hard haha - wasted two days just thinking! Glad you enjoyed and finished it!
This is so much fun!! This is the sort of thing I can play for hours haha
Love the art style so much!! Good job!
Thank you so much!
Very cool auto battler with some interesting mechanics and nice visuals, love the replayability too.
Glad you loved it! Thanks for playing :)
