How does your game fit the theme?
The game centers around a phoenix. A phoenix is a mythological bird that burns itself to ash when it gets old and is reborn from the ashes, hence an end is a new beginning.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

Interesting concept, but really hard to get used to the rules.

Looks like an interesting card game. I imagine quite difficult to make. As you do need to read the rules and instructions to play it, I would suggest an in-game tutorial if possible. Somehow, break it down in to mini games and gradually build up the complexity.

As i don't like pandemic, forbidden island was pretty solid board game and i like how u used mechanics from this game to yours. Unfortunately, from 2. turn i couldn't draw cards and complet objectives. Anyway, im impressed with what youve done, good job!

Looks nice, but I had no idea what to do. I read the How To Play but that was a lot of text to remember. Tutorial?

This game is just like Forbidden Island! This was pretty cool that you could put all this together! A little more time and polish and this would be awesome! I will say that after a few turns it stopped drawing new key cards for me so I was kind of stuck, maybe I missed it in the instructions but I couldn't re-shuffle the discard or something! Overall pretty solid!

This seems really cool.  I wasn't able to fully understand it though.  There were a lot of text instructions and I had a hard time following them.   I didn't hear any sounds either, not sure if that was just me.  I love the concept and it looks like a ton of work went into this so I commend you.  Just seemed a little over complicated, or at least sit was tough to grasp.
