This was an enjoyable card game 😀!

GAMEPLAY
The game concept is solid, and visually, everything looks nice! Controls for picking up and placing cards work well, and the overall experience is enjoyable. However, occasionally, it's unclear how to use a card or what it does. Tooltips on the cards could be a helpful addition. Although I didn't manage to defeat the Grizzly, the game was still fun to play. As I read somewhere. Some random events or RPG character building could be a nice update.

GRAPHICS/ART
The animations and cards and UI look good and clean.

AUDIO
The background music and sound effects are enjoyable and add to the experience.

THEME
The theme is incorporated into the game.

Overall, a fun card game that could be made even better with updates. Keep up the good work💪!

Thanks appreciate the feedback! For sure some more work on what cards do. I’ve been going back to things like Slay the Spire and see the cards are clearer on what they do with less text. Just need to wordsmith things some more and add some kind of colour or graphical help.

Visual and card manipulation are really well done. I'm a bit confused with card effect, card with effect on all only seams to apply to one predator. On my first run i trid to understand the real rules of each card but after two games i'm still not fully understanding what's happening. The concept is really feating with the theme. Congratulations !

Thanks! I had to squeeze a lot of text into the cards without making it too ugly so need to look at effects on single predator vs. all predators maybe with an icon or something. Thanks for playing!

The game looks stunning and is very complete. Well done. Fun to play. You've used AI for the graphics which is perfectly fine, I'm just not sure how to rate. Maybe you can use different colors for the types of cards (for example red for attack, blue for healing.

Okay thanks for the feedback. Not much to the controls. Click and drag on the cards to play them against predators.

Hmmm, not sure what I’m missing about the cards as they should explain the context. Of course knowing what they do is easier when you wrote them. I tried to keep the text short without getting into a long explanation but maybe adding tooltips that had a longer description might help. There is an end. After about a dozen or so rounds you’ll meet the Grizzly Bear. Beat him and you win the game. Thanks for taking a look at it!

Fun card game! The sound ambiance with all the animals made the game feel alive! I got bored of it at my fifth game, because it was the same thing over and over

Sorry you got bored with it. Will have to figure out how to make it more interesting, maybe some kind of RPG system to build your character up. Thanks for giving it a play!

Sebthebeast90Submitted364 days ago(+1)

Yeah! Building your character or having new species in your ecosystem!
