im not a deck building game sorta guy so it's kinda lost on me, i hadn't a clue how it worked, but it looks great, and a way of figuring out hwat each card doies would be cool. good job.

Developer

Thank you! There is a description of the cards in the bestiary!

Nice Game

It was not so clear what items do. And why are foxes on my side, the second turn?

I like the aesthetics and the idea to make a cardgame =)

Keep it up

Developer

Thanks! If the fox eats a sheep, it will sneak into your deck. If you don't get rid of it, it will continue to eat sheep right from your hand after the turn.

Very well made game! I liked the overall aesthetics and the colour palette is gorgeous!

There's lots of little detail in the animations as well. Also it's the first card game I've tried here so it stands out!

My only confusion was it wasn't clear what the items did, and I couldn't use the needle. A tooltip or description for the items would do so much to explain what they do!

Still, that didn't impede my enjoyment of the game at all. Great job :)

Developer

Thanks! I don't know why I didn't add items to the bestiary, it would have taken at most 3 minutes ahaha

Submitted

Soooo just out of curiosity, what does the needle do? It injects all the sheep with a super serum and allows them to defeat the wolves and fox right?

Developer

After the 9th day, a demon will appear who will turn sheep into zombies, which will not bring money until you cure them with a syringe!

Submitted

So that's what the zombie sheep in the bestiary is for... Danggit, I thought I could create my army of super soldiers.

Developer(+1)

unfortunately there will be no army hahaha

Nice game, i really liked the concept of the game and the visuals i ended up with day 3

Keep the nice work up hahaha :D

Submitted(+1)

Like the visuals and like the idea actually a good one but this may be the third game that I played within this game jam with the wolf sheep and cabbage combination. 

Submitted(+1)

I like the art style and the animations! for the actions! The game has a nice ambience and the main mechanic is interesting. The cardsget a bit hard to see in the dark, I think keeping a light over the play field would be nice.

(Btw for your youtube video if you have the SharedArrayBuffer support option on for your game the video wont load on your itch, but you can still link it in your description)

Developer(+1)

And I thought it was visible normally, but apparently not.. Thanks for the information about YouTube, I didn’t know about it.

Submitted(+1)

It is a nice game. The only thing that will make it more enjoyable is that you can light up the cards when it is dark because it is kinda hard to see

Developer

I will definitely add lighting! Thank you!

Submitted(+1)

A hard game for me since the RNG is not on my side. Need a description for the item since I don't know what it did until I press them.
Great game and Nice Job!

Developer

Thank you! Later I'll add description for items in bestiary!

Submitted(+1)

Really polished, hated seeing my sheep taken by the wolves :( I didnt really understand what some of the items did but i still think its very well done.

Developer

Nature is cruel :) I'll have to add information about the items in the future, thanks!

ps: I found a bug where my cards won't show up

Developer

Thanks! Eh.. if only I knew why this bug appears)

Submitted(+2)

This game has been one of my favorites of all the ones I've played so far. Really polished and addicting to play, it really feels great to manage all your cards and items. 

Developer

Thanks!

big fan of card games, really enjoy the ramp up and how basically it also makes me manage a budget while deck building, definitely going to come back to this~

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted(+2)

Good effort to get this finished in a week! It's really polished, and the mechanics are solid. It took a bit to understand, but these kinds of games always do for me. Once I figured it out I really liked it. Very unique. Well done!

Developer

Thank you, glad to hear that you liked it!

Submitted(+2)

Card games are always more work than everyone thinks. Great work on this one! 

Developer

Thank you!!!

Submitted(+2)

Imagine this, out of so many options i put in Trap, Sheep , Trap and the enemy had Plant, Wolf, Plant! hahahah that was so mean!

Developer(+1)

They are just very cunning :)

Submitted(+1)

That was so enjoyable! My poor dog got messed up by a bush. Unfortunately, when I got to do the fourth day, my deck didnt spawn and I couldn't play anymore. Super fun though!

Developer

Thank you! The bush was very interested in the dog. But it's a pity that you caught this bug!
