Got a crash on level 7 I think when opening a chest and an enemy occupied that square in same motion. Got an error message I tried to screenshot but did not get it.

Would be nice if settings stay when restarting the game.

Mouse sensitivity changed from windows settings so it was a bit strange to move around in the the menu and game.

The gameplay is very fun and I like how it incorporates the dungeon into the combat even though it is card based, well done. The combat feels engaging and it is fun to figure out tactics on how to fight the enemies in the best way.

I think the enemies could be a bit tougher, and the game could and should be expanded to be longer, but for the jam it might be ok as a short demo. I never understood that I fought the boss. Maybe I missed something, I did clear the game and win though.

Some cards did not act as I expected during the fights though, so maybe make that a bit clearer. Sometimes I killed enemies that had a lot of health left which left me baffled. I never understood if there were an end to the draw deck and if there was any drawback in just reshuffle to get the cards you need.

The graphics looks awesome and I really like the theme that it uses. Some text is a bit hard to read but it works.

Good Job!

Card games are always so tricky to implement in other genres I feel. While I'm a Gwent fangirl until the day I die, this was absolutely brilliant.

Already stoked for your post jam update with some more card variation. I would love to see an additional progress based mechanic introduced that would allow for the player to create a build or deck specialised around a certain type of abilities or playstyle. I understand that is an enormous undertaking and very aspirational, but this is really such a great foundation!

Art was beautiful, sound was excellent (bit loud, but you know that!). From what I can tell you're already addressing everything I have to say in the post-jam update and therefore there's really nothing more I can add.

Wonderful entry, thank you.

I loved this game! How do I get more of it?

This is great! The card mechanics are fun, cards interacting with the environment surprised me and was exciting to discover by chance. There is enough card variety for the time within the jam and had some synergy (blast wand + wisp arrow was fun). Grappling hook was really fun! The cloud UI button effects are really nice and I love the art style. This is my favorite so far, I would love to see this as a full game!

Quite a fun game - I didn't make a particularly specialized build (and kinda only barely squeaked past the finish line), but I could see the key cards that would let one do so. The aesthetics were both pretty and coherently cohesive, and none of the level themes overstayed their welcome. This is one I could actually see myself replaying.

About the only 'critique' I have is that I think at one point I killed a chest with a wisp arrow, and I'm not sure if that's intended?

I recorded my playthrough-you can watch it if you like:

Card battle? Nice! I hope default attack means I hit enemy with deck of cards instead!

Fun thing - last boss teleported from me with me poisoning him just before that, so when he appeared again - he was almost dead and died next turn. Slightly OP!

Loved how smooth combat feels. Wisp arrow (well poison one too) is slightly overtuned for many sittuations. You can aggro any mob and run behind few steps for clear shot from the passageway. But perfect tuning in a game jam? Impossible!

Art is gorgeous and sounds were spot on too (after I adjusted volume). Very polished game.

(Final screen made me giggle)

Thank you for that experience :)

This game is so Cool!
The art style is so pretty.
I mean it's a card game it's wonderful!
The combat system is cool and there are very cool card effects. I like the combo of the wand attack and the arrow that deals damage based on distance.
The sounds were so loud that I got scared when I opened the first chest XD.
Maybe you could add the possibility to reshuffle the discard pile into the deck once is over, and remove the draw so you have to manage the hand time by time.
Because finishing cards in a card game doesn't feel so right.
I really liked it, Good Job!

Great game!  I love the visuals, really nice use of simple pixel art and a bit of depth, and nice colors.  I made it to the end, killed the head priestess with poison, which felt cheap - I love that she respawned after some damage, it would be good if the poison cleared at that time too, I think, as once I managed to land a poison on her, it was over ^_^.  The destructible terrain was cool, and a surprise, though I didn't notice anything special that could be done with it (was there a chest hidden behind a wall to blow up anywhere?).  The writing at the end made me laugh =).  Also, almost goes without saying, but combat was great, I love deck building, and I felt like I often had interesting choices (and was always the wrong number of steps away from an enemy to do what I wanted ^_^).

You should make this into a full commercial game.
