- The less is more mechanic really shone with the blacksmith upgrade system. And my goodness, Kobold mode! :D

I see, I'm famous now! Of course I remember you as well, pretty sure you won the last one. xD
Sorry about the bug, unsure what causes it and I cannot replicate it at all while playing. And I also messed up the downloadable version due to rush, so that's not available either. :/
But still, thank you for playing and for the kind words!
It took a while to figure some things out but the reward was well worth it. great game!
What fun!!
Also, the "I didn't make a reset function" message is super relatable.
Ahh this is so well made and I'm a sucker for managing little guys. The art, music and feel are all so cohesive, really impressive work.
I'm a sucker for deckbuilders and this one was no exception, fantastic game! Really impressive how much you did in such a short amount of time. My only critique is how quickly the player is overwhelmed by numbers during the rest section especially in the beginning. Later on I got the hang of what was important but even then the sheer number of options is just a bit overwhelming and I kinda just wanted to get it over with to get to the battles. Maybe an optional automatic assignment button would help out to alleviate this issue.
I also got to the dragon but for some reason I suddenly couldn't click anything anymore, was working fine until then idk what happened.
Other than that, amazing jam entry, great job! :)
The gameplay is great it has some very good strategy elements, my only critique is when assigning equipment or the blacksmith It would be nice to have some obvious indicator of what is equipped without having to hover over the character, some icon, or similar. overall very good.
Gorgeous. I just can't understand HOW WAS IT DONE IN 9 DAYS. The little details of your troupes holding their weapon, the weapon changing with the upgrades, the details with the status of the troupes, really, this game is amazing for a game jam project, I can not do 50% of it in such a short time.
The game have a lot of content lol. The graphics are amazing, and the gameplay is very complete.
Congrats!
It's a great job!
So good, It was difficult at the beginning, but them I could understand the mechanics, great work! keep doing it <3

Great idea to have an army of Nuddles and Puddles going on a dragon hunt. I enjoyed “baby-sitting” them very much. It wasn’t too hard to defeat the dragon, though. The level before last also felt not as challenging as the first levels. But it’s a minor thing. The animation of the army is super. Everyone was doing something different, and that felt awesome. Another idea came to mind: to have the ability to send a scout ahead and see/spy which enemy is going be next.
Great submission! I loved managing a big army and it very much fit the theme to be upgrading by reducing our overall numbers. The art was cute and overall solid gameplay. Enjoyed all the way to the end.
This is a really cool game, I love all the creatures! Nice concept as well and it's great with the theme!
For now, it's the best game of the jam I've played :)
There is room for upgrading this awesome game, mostly in UI - right now upgrade management can be a little bit boring, but overall it's really cool.
Good stuff! Made it through on the first go, and really enjoyed it the whole time. Same comment as the previous one, I liked the whole "sacrifice your soldiers for better stuff" mechanic.
That was a pretty good Slay the spire like with a twist to "sacrifice" your soldiers. Loved the cute art style. I won at the end and was stuck but it doesn't matter. Well played!
