Cool game! Very nice aesthetic, the backstory keeps you going. But once the monsters started roaming everywhere, I couldn't see a way to win. Still enjoyed playing it!

Great artwork, bit of a shame there are not many animations to really bring it to life but even still, there is plenty of charm and colors that work well together. I like the progression system, gives me Settlers of Catan vibes with the resources and building. I think some more intricate choice making would add some replay value but that's probably not really what you were going for. Nice job!

Submitted

I really liked the concept, sadly the game was way too hard for me and i couldn't finish it :( 

Submitted

Great artwork. More control over the character would be nice but I understand thats likely not the style that u were going for. The sound effects are great. Well done!

Submitted

I don't know if the monster spawn is random, but I got very unlucky in 3 runs :( 

I wanted to finish it cause I think the narrative idea es very cool and in my lane, but got bankrupt everytime :( 

Submitted

The Morrowind reference isnt lost on me! Game looked (visually) great, but unfortunately i couldn't beat it. I'll probably come back and try later

I am impressed with the artwork, fantastic job! Those spells were well animated! Having to fight the monsters instead of picking up supplies and not being able to do both felt like a net negative to the gameplay. I think being able to at least pick up half the items you would if there's no enemies there would make those fights feel worthwhile and not as punishing since they're random. Nevertheless, nice work, the game feels complete!

Very nice artwork and animations on the fight scenes, am missing some animation on the player character walk and idle.

Submitted

had a hard time reading the text and the game was cut of on the sides :(
the art style so soooo amazing, well done!

Submitted

nice loop and art direction. Cool concept. that text as though. Sorry I am sure you got the point :) The balance was actually good compared to most games in jams. The art was nice so felt weird with no animation there. Nice game overall

Submitted

First thing, the font was very hard to read!
That being said, interesting entry! I was very, very confused during the first loop but things started making sense in the second one. I think removing the limited time mechanic would be an improvement. I was able to build the portal once, it got too expensive for me after that...a little unbalanced, but that's to be expected from a jam game. All in all, I enjoyed my time with this one.

Clever and fun design! Good luck to you.

Submitted

Nice game, as some others have mentioned the text can be a bit tricky to read but I like the idea and I'm impressed by how much you managed to achieve in such a short time, well done!

Submitted

That's a nice game! Art is beautiful, mechanics are interesting, funny references to HOMM and Morrowind! I enjoyed it, although the balance is slightly off and font is difficult to read. 

Submitted

Great strategy! I like the art style and the implementation of the theme. But I can say that the text is difficult to read because of the chosen font.

Submitted

Really creative idea.  The gameplay was a lot more interesting than I expected it to be and I had a lot of fun.  My only issue is that I found the font pretty difficult to read, but that might just be me lol.  Nice work!

Loved the game! The loop is super catchy and I can see myself spent a hot minute playing this type of game :)

Submitted

A very nice take on the theme! I like how gameplay is both simple and captivating and gets you immediately dragged into playing more and more loops... 

At some point I felt as I have too much of fire and stone supplies compared to other resourses, but it was probably intended and my own problem :D 

Submitted

It drew me in for sure. Something strangely calming about the whole thing.  Thanks for making!

Submitted

Very cool concept. It’s very addicting!
