The art is great, as others have mentioned. I guess the card gameplay itself has been uploaded after the jam deadline like you mentioned, so I'm not sure if it counts but, I kinda didn't really understand it very much anyway. I got stomped in my first few matches because my hand would eventually fill up with 0 atk / 0 def (or 1 atk / 1 def) cards and it felt like the enemy almost never had those, haha. Maybe it's a skill issue
The visuals and audio make for a great atmosphere, this is a really cool skeleton for a game that has a lot of potential. I'm not sure how it follows with the theme (and I'm not sure if it's an incremental game?) but for what it is, it was a pretty neat little experience (at least in its current state)

The game looks really good, the art is amazing. I wish we could see more of what the game would be but I understand that the game jam time is short.
This has a very neat feel, but it's not really on topic for this jam.
The card gameplay kind of works, but even after having won, I'm still not sure exactly what's happening. I see that after playing 3 cards, the opponent does too, but is there some kind of MtG/YGO match-up happening where one card's defence blocks another's attack? Some more visual communication with how a turn is being resolved and the effects on each player's health could really elevate this game. There's also no reason (as far as I can see) to not simply play your 3 highest attack cards every turn, which makes the 1 attack/1 defence cards essentially useless. Saying all that, the art is really nice, and I'm curious about the world itself!
