Did you use any pre made assets?
SLSO8 Palette - https://lospec.com/palette-list/slso8

Did you implement the Mechanic?
yes

If you did use the Mechanic how was it used?
The mechanic was implemented through a chain-reaction rune system.
When a Dracoyle shoots a rune onto a tile, it triggers interactions that spread to nearby tiles, enabling combos and tactical setups.

Did you add the Object?
likely yes

Please explain the premise of your game, how it works and what to do.
Dracoyles is a fast puzzle-strategy game where you command magical gargoyles (“Dracoyles”) to shoot elemental runes onto tiles.
You click a Dracoyle, choose the target tile, and create chain reactions to clear the board or reach specific objectives.
Each rune behaves differently, creating tactical choices on every shot.
The goal is to complete each level with the fewest moves while mastering rune interactions.

Will you join one of our jams again?
possibly

Theme Selection
Main = Fantasy - Dragon

Some inspiration = Snow, Darkness and Low Magic

(low magic is not implemented yet, but the dracoyles must have a limit on how much times they can shoot)

Did you come from a collaborators community?
no
