Connect 4 with a storyline. Why not. 

The music I liked alot.

Submitted

Interesting concept, cool story and the art was awesome. Pretty cool twist on the game. I wish there was a way to replay owl on the third round without having to replay the whole game. It was certainly a challenge to remember what patterns you and your opponent can use.

Dude, really great submission! I loved the story, and the art was superb. I also loved the unique twist on connect 4! It was really fun and challenging to keep track of all the different patterns you and the griffin could use. Honestly I have nothing to complain about, just a really well-made game. Good job!

Also, maybe you could check out and rate my game? :)

Great game! Had fun playing it. Well done!

Super cool use of the theme and interpretation of connect 4. Great work!

Submitted

This was an excellent game! I really like how you turned connect four into a battle puzzler. The gameplay was really fun and the AI was smart with it's placement. The art style is the icing on the cake, felt like a storybook. The Phoenix was a great idea to go with, fits the theme perfect. My only complaint is I was looking forward to fighting the last guy but the story just ended there. Would have been an epic conclusion. Overall awesome work guys, you nailed it!

do my little "played-over-100-entries"-tired eyes  FINALLY  see a wonderful marriage of puzzle and story here?
ALAS! my favourite type of game - and so wonderfully done.
i'm very impressed with this simple but elegant mechanic but also the beautiful art!
I'll come back to it to finish this - definetely!

I really like the artwork and concept! I couldn't get past the Griffin though, he was so strong! He KO'd me in 2 hits, while my 2 hits did about 10% of his health.

First of all the phoenix is my favourite animal, I even have a tatoo from it :D and yeah... pheonix games and stuff :D

It was sooo fun to play this game! I needed like four games to finally beat the griffin! Pleas make a real game out of it! I wanna beat the thunderbird :D

And the artwork was amazing!

Submitted

Nice take on the Connect 4 set up.
Could do with a little more clarity at the start, but I soon figured out the shapes I needed to make after a couple of goes.
This concept is great though, and could easily see this turned into a mobile game of sorts, building in difficulty over time and levles.
Great work!

Submitted

Nice idea for a game. I would have preferred the pattern to change each time you do perform one, but that's ok like this too. And it is a little bit too difficult for my taste :)

Submitted

a unique, innovative twist on an old puzzle concept. 

great 'Am i supposed to lose here?' moment

Submitted

Beautiful artwork and very unique take on the theme. I was confused on first, for some reason I didn't see the combos at the bottom, but then it clicked and was off and running. Really well done!

Submitted(+1)

Kinda took a while for me to understand that I had my combos and enemy had their combos.
I guess to wish that every combo was available to the one getting it first.

But I spent a lot of time with this game, it's incredibly fun and very well done :)

Good job :)
