Hey, glad to finally play this one! I am happy to report that it did not make me nauseated while playing, so hooray!

I think this is a good proof of concept, and it does some cool things, but just missed the mark for me. I really like the idea of cycling through different attacks and being able to deck build that set. However, all the numbers and stuff on the cards felt like there was too much going on and I ended up spamming through my cards hoping that they did stuff. Generally swords are close, guns are far, and anything else I should just use immediately. It was a little weird gameplay wise to get a deck full of sheaths and whetstones. For a jam game though, this is all minor stuff. A very good entry still!

Great job on this one and keep making cool games!

Could do with instructions, I don't know if I was doing it wrong or I was bugged but I didn't seem to be able to attack most of the time and after a death the mobs were on me before I could get oriented and look at the cards I'd drawn and then I died.
On top of instructions it would be good to ease the player into the mechanics of the cards and the different abilities and possibly costs? It looked like they had costs but it wasn't clear

It did take me a while to pick up that I could use Mouse 1, 2, or 3 to cast my cards instead of stretching to #1, #2, and #3 while moving with WASD. Once I understood I could use the mouse (despite the keypad icons above the cards) the game became very enjoyable.

Also, the minute I wished that there was another enemy type one of the ones that could shoot spawned. So nice work there.

The music and sound effects and feedback were spot on.

I think you should polish this one up. I had a ton of fun.

Played and rated. An amazing submission. My playtest score is around 56k.

Pros

• Outstanding visuals
• Great Sound effects and Music
• Fun gameplay experience
• Theme fits perfectly
• Highscore panel at the end to compete on the leaderboard

Cons

• Deck shuffling randomly makes it hard to keep track of what skill we can use

Overall an outstanding submission to me. I don't see any negative points besides the random decks from my experience.

This is really good, feels good, plays good, really amazing great job guys. Music and sound on point.

Damn this was really great! The visuals and the punch of the combat. Did you take inspiration from Devil Daggers?

Bloody amazing.

So fun and fast, really starts to flow.

eventually I did start kinda spamming without much thought but twas really really fun!

the critic. I could tell what any of the numbers on the card did, I eventually figured out that the yellow was shots (I think?) would be nice if the mouse unlocked on death and you could hover over cards for tool tips and what not. Or maybe I just missed a screen where it told me? not sure. but either way considering how much you did and how well you did it, its totally fair you didnt have time.

Something that kept breaking flow a very very little was running out of cards then having to find out which hand the card was in. Very minor but it would be nice if when your out of cards it would play the next available card rather than do nothing. IE if your left mb card is empty and you click it, use the middle mouse button, sort of deal. very very minor.

Such great work
