Unique Rogue like fast based battler. Once you get into the motion its as simple as building your combo and hitting the right enemies with the right spells. Enemies like the mirror really help mix it up a bit and keep you on your toes. Great Job!
Very fast paced and fun! The combo thing really gets my adrenaline running lol
It's pretty neat. Got munched by the mirrors but it seems like the combo counter is a placebo as the enemy health doesn't seem to increase! Guess it just feels good to spam left and right
How can you possibly make and balance a deckbuilder in 4 days???? It's all so clean! Very best of luck to you!
Really fun! A bit difficult when the mirror showed up, but otherwise great!
Really cool game! I really like the time mechanic implement in a roguelike deckbuilder! I think the first levels were a bit too slow/easy, but enjoyed it and the unlocks and whole different levels were very impressive to have built so quickly!
The art looks amazing! And it feels really nice to play. Its easy to get into a nice rhythm with the game :)
Great job!
The art on this is stunning, and the decaying combo counter makes every turn feel tense. Managed to heal an enemy by accident more than once, so targeting could be a touch clearer, but that's me being picky. One of my favourites this jam!
Check out my game if you get a chance, a chess roguelike called Final Gambit: /jam/gmtk-jam-2026/rate/4813276
I played this game yesterday but forgot to vote… I was a bit clumsy at first, but once I got the hang of it, it became very fluid and fun. It’s also visually impressive.
Didn't really know what I was doing, just casting green on myself and the rest on the enemies but I had a great time! Thanks for making this fun game, the art is also really nice!
Amazing artwork! loved the mechanic of the game, maybe make it simpler first and then let it be more difficult.
This was a lot of fun. The balance of staying powerful but not so much you kill yourself was hard to manage yet rewarding. And it goes without saying that the art is spectacular too!
Very Good, Its just I suck and I keep on accidently using the damage cards on myself, and the heal cards on the enemies. Great game
I had a lot of fun!! nearly did it on my first run but died right at the end :,)
congratulations, this is a really solid game!
Art and gameplay is on point ! Very nice overall, especially like the idea of being able to play one-handed using only the arrow keys ! Very well done :)
This game is insane! The art is amazing, the gameplay is engaging. The sounds fit great. Everything about this is amazing! You've outdone yourself. I think this has great potential.
Even as someone who don't like deck builders i liked it
It feels like vampire crawlers, in a good way. Fun mechanic!
I'm a huge fan of vampire crawlers, and wanted to recreate the same experience, but "differently". I'm very glad that someone saw what we were inspired by :)
visually appealing and fun for a while, not sure if your decks change later on, I didn't get that far
Great submission, fun game
For me, this is the best concept of the jam so far. Extremely interesting gameplay! The only real downside is the lack of meta-progression
