Had a lot of fun playing your game on my stream!
That was for sure a Crumbling Location. I had a couple of goes at level one but never made it out - 100 orbs seems like a steep price even if you trade in some for more spawns. Had fun though gambling on walking over slightly broken spots and hoping I'd be able to get back.
Might be a good idea to zoom the camera back a bit because sometimes I felt I was a little too close to the edge of the screen and couldn't really see where I was going.
Really cool game , Cool concept Great job on the submission
lol why do I always look into complicated game concepts when such simple ones work so well ?
Sure it could use a bit a polish but still surprisingly fun !
Cool concept, I would add camera smoothing and reduce the number of bowling balls needed to get to the next floor. When I saw 100 needed I was like no way am I gonna get that many and survive! I did a lets play on my Youtube channel @Travh98_
How to make a game fun with no animations whatsoever? You make Merchants and Monsters. Great presentation with fun dialogue, and the wildcard use is pretty clever there! Great work!
Interesting game with a massive usage of the crumbling location wild card. Rather fun!
Also that song is so absurd, I love it. Did you make for the game or got it from somewhere else?
Great job with the wildcards! The art was simple but effective and well stylized. This was super fun to play though a bit challenging. Those ogres kept giving me a hard time. Great job on the submission!
hard but fun :)
Made a change right before deadline to try to make it actually beatable: hopefully that didn't break anything. I know it's still probably too hard, but hey, it's hell!
