The game is super cool, I was a little frustrated with how the combat mechanic worked, but it definitely was fun. Super creative

Developer

Thank you for playing and the feedback:3

Submitted

I loved this game, from the idea to the aestethic, i would like to see this game on a mobile store because it would be on my phone for sure. I cannot wait to see how you can improve it

Developer(+1)

Thank you for loving it!That means a lot to me!I'll try to polish it better in the near future~

Submitted (1 edit)

The idea is really cool and I could really see it become something impressive with some more polish! However starting from floor 2 the difficulty really spiked, and there also isn't really much the player could do as their chosen card.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!I'll polish it better after this jam!

Submitted

The visual art and music are charming! However, the gameplay is unbalanced, the most balance I get is 5 vs 3, and most of the time I just get one character, which is the player, then get completely destroyed.

非常喜欢这个游戏, 但一打三太难了(Showing off little chinese that I knew seem seeing others people rate it in chinese XDD)

Developer(+1)

强度其实不完全和人数挂钩,武器也挺重要的,不过这两方面都很容易被对手的碾压就是了哈哈,确实是没配好牌组,后续我应该会再调整扩展一下的。谢谢喜欢!

Submitted

为啥一轮下来一个角色都抽不到啊!只能被对面几个大只佬狠狠拿下...  

游戏概念很好!如果平衡再做调整,能让我自己组卡组就更好了!

Developer

抱歉抱歉,实在没时间调整平衡性了。原定是要做肉鸽和配置卡组的,还是太高估自己的效率了,最后只是勉勉强强做到能玩就截止了。后面我考虑再完善一下哈哈。

Beside all those unbalance card draws, one thing I would like game to do is letting player choose direction to attack. I can't hit and run since the characters will attack the direction they are facing, which means when I run back, the character attack the back, not to the enemy direction. This makes the mechanic "control the character" become useless, since it doesn't bring any actual benefit.

That beside, game is great, cool mechanic! This game has a lot of potential after fixing all those things.

Developer(+1)

I decided to let player attack where they are facing consider to keep the control  as simple as possible.That do  make the characters hard to control..I 'll reconsider the controls.Thank you for the feedback!

I love deckbuilding and the cards are all cute +o+
If we don't have 3 characters from the start it's very complicated to win the game is a little too rng but that's normal in deckbuilding XD

Developer

That 's normal if I had time to finish the deck-building part of the game haha...Thank you for playing and the feedback!

Submitted

grate concept but the game isn't balanced when it comes to card draw, you need to draw a weapon an a character to attack, something the enemy always have but the players doesn't  

Developer(+1)

You are exactly right.I was too careless when configuring the enemies's decks.Thank you for playing and the feedback!

Really fun and great presentation. I had a few times where I kept drawing health items when I had no characters left alive so could do with a bit of tweaking.

Developer(+1)

Adding the health items was the biggest mistake I've made in this Jam haha, Thank you for playing and  the feedback !

Submitted

Its fun but a bit hard to play

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Really good concept and execution for such a short time, but like the others have been saying, if you don't get enough character cards, or if the opponent swings faster or out ranges you, you're out of luck. But with some tuning this could make an interesting full game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback .I realize the difficulty and luck problem.And thanks for playing!

Pretty fun game but winning all depended on how many character cards you got at the start.  

Developer

Yes I did not balance it well.Thank you for your feedback!

Submitted

I like the idea of switching between a card and action game, but it was a bit difficult to play.

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Really fun and hard

Developer

Thank you for playing !

Submitted

really enjoyed the concept, but somehow the players do not attack in second phase.....

and like others said difficulty was high. XD

Developer

I'm sorry for the bugs and lack of difficulty balance.It took too much time for me to complete the basic game flow.I'll try to do better next time.Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Great job, game flows really well (other than the difficulty but what can you do in 48hrs). Love being able to mix and match base stats and weapons although base attack types were a bit misleading, I chose an archer to be ranged then it was melee which killed a run very quickly haha. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Hahaha that's another point for "roles reversed" theme.The detail of combinations by roles and weapons can be better if I have more time to adjust them.I'm really appreciated to see you sharing you play experiences.Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Good concept, very good execution !

This has a lot of potential.

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Love the idea and the implementation! Besides the difficulty, it's a very enjoyable game.

Developer

Thank you  playing !I regret for the miss of levels' difficulty design .It's glad to see that you still enjoy it~

Submitted

Interesting approach to the theme, quite good mechanics also, like it :)

Developer

Thank you.I'm glad to see that you like it~!

Submitted

That's a fun game mechanic... build the deck, then play as a card! I got a few challenging rounds with only potion and weapon cards, I guess that's fate! haha! Well done for making such a complex game in 48 hours! :D 

Developer(+1)

I considered to ensure at least one role card for the fist draw phase but at last I ran out of time and end up with many regrets hahahaha. Abd thank you for playing!
