Super fun game, I'm a huge fan of rouglike cards simmilar to Slay the Spire, and this felt good playing. Keep it up!

Wow, this is so addictive. I need more circular pigs 🐽

Incredible art!! I played it but with those screenshakes I had to quit (My headaches with them). It's a pity because it's a great game.

Submitted

Very nice game! I'd love to see a full version of this! I love pace of the game and how it makes you make snap decisions! How did you get the custom Godot load screen?

Very nice visuals. Good soundtrack. Surprising variety of enemies, many of which require distinct strategies.

Cool fast-paced card game! We had a simmialar idea for our previous jam but I haven't uploaded it on itch yet 😅😅Basically, you were driving a car and had to either play speed boost/fuel cards or discard (through the window) the trap cards as fast as possible. It's so cool to see that we landed on a lot of simmilar design decisions (distinct color per effect type) but we also had our specific things (you handled combos better than us, in our game it was just even more speed, but we also had "fake" cards that looked simmilar to the real ones in order to trick you)
Overall great game, sorry for the yap I just love weird card games!

Fun game, but sometimes (with the special suprise deck atleast) you can get a chain of non-combat cards and you kind of die as the enemies get to you. Cool art and monsters!

I had the idea to always make 1 battle card by default so that this situation would not happen, but I didn’t have enough time. And desires, to be honest. But you are absolutely right, there are scenarios when a player can completely lose due to circumstances beyond his control. It's good that there aren't many of them. 

Anyway, thanks for playing!!

My fav game so faar - Really fun core loop and i its strategy, but you need to be quick because of the combo mechanic 

Submitted

I love how intuitive the controls are. I'm not a deck builder gamer, but this made me enjoy the genre! Excited to see where this goes!

Submitted

great take on the theme of the jam! would be interested to play a polished version of this game

Submitted

This was really fun, I'm probably gonna come back to play this more.

Submitted

Excellent art style! Enjoying gameplay. Well done

Very fun game! I really like the concept, having the combo on a rapidly decreasing timer forces you to act quickly which make it really fun to play.

However I found the game to be very easy, you quickly become very powerful and one-shot everything. I think the game would need more enemies like the mirror or less damage cards to balance thing out. (edit: note that I only tried the aggressive deck)

But still, great potential!

This is incredible. I see this becoming a full game for sure. Well done guys!!!

Submitted

The art is stunning, the idea is brilliant, and the countdown system—pushing you to keep the streak going as long as possible—is just incredible! GG guys!

Pretty addicting game loop! A game about both strategy and reaction. Awesome character designs too. Good entry!

Submitted

fantastic job. As far as game design, the living mirror was a great inclusion. The combo counter also being a multiplier on the actual outcomes and not just like a counter for points is very fun!

Submitted(+1)

Fun.  Not sure what I'm supposed to do when my next action is a powerful spell and there's a mirror on both sides.

Submitted(+1)

Discard it?

Developer

Mirrors die instantly if pushed. You can cast a card to push back, saving the counter

A fun and hectic twist on a deckbuilder roguelike!

Love the idea of the game and it felt balanced if a bit basic with the way the card works, but that might be the nature of the frantic vibe you managed to achieve. Hard to have too much complexity while also encouraging the player to make quick action :) 

All in all a very well thought out and executed game !
I mean, who can say no to living the fantasy of a frantic spell-flinging goblin?

Fantastic work :)
