Dude this game is insanely well polished given it was made in 4 days, fantastic work!
So good and polished. It is a bit slow for my taste, but that's probably just personal opinion. I've got no idea how you guys managed this in 4 days.
Amazing game! The level of polish and amount of content you were able to achieve in the short amount of time is insanely impressive.
Fantastic game! The matches were intense and the cards were so unique, great job!
Beautifully done. Perfect blend of inspiration from Inscryption, Slay the Spire, Balatro, and Gambonanza.
Strongest strategy to pull off:
1 ... Summoner King: Nudge king and summon pawns
2 ... Call of the Hero: Swap king with opponet piece (best king) -> then flee
I can't believe this was done in such a short amount of time. I also make roguelikes and this is what I strive for lol
this game is crazy, slay the spire vibes. id pay for full release
I thought was a fun idea and loved the graphics for Death. He moves so creepily. Interesting gameplay concept.
WOW! An Inscription-like chess-themed game? In this economy?
Amazing work, the art direction is :chef-kiss:
Your game was great, I loved the aesthetic and the mechanics around it, Chess + Card Game, damn that's awesome. AWESOME WORK!!!
Really nice idea
It's a bit much to take in from the start, but it's oozing with style and it got me into it. love that you can see those skeleton hands. well done!
One of the best game jam games I have ever played
Real cool game, love the art direction, it's really beautiful!
Really good game, it gets really addictive when you start to get used to it !
One of the most addictive games I've ever player. Congrats!
This game is actually addictive I lost all track of time while playing it and getting pawn builds so powerful i had to try only using one as a challenge 10/10
Wow, that is insane to get it done in such a short time. Well polished, fun game design, really makes you really want to play more. Definitely can see it being expanded further into full game
easily jam winner
