Wowee, the polish on this one. It's short, but it's a full-on game, with its own style and gameplay loop and AI and everything. It's fun to play, and it's got nice music, art, and strategic depth. Really well done! (Don't act like plague rat isn't a god amongst men)

Best game I've played so far! Really well done! It would be nice to be able to remove those pesky squirrels from my deck.
Love the vibes and the art style! Gameplay is great and I love how it feels quick and snappy. Fun game, it took me 2 runs to beat. The only critique I could have is having *more* everything - cards, levels, enemies, etc. I think that's a good sign for a takeaway from a game jam game.
Artistically fantastic, I can definitely see the Inscryption inspiration and overall charming.
Really love the artstyle and the post processing effect, noticed you changed the name to feel more like a wizard name than just "Morgan" haha, great sounds and VFX upon killing creatures and taking damage
Plague Rat ftw!
Placing would be better if it was let go of mouse and let you undo if you made a mistake, having to move mouse away feels awkward and takes away from the impact feel of placing a card sadly

Keep it up, looking forward to updates :)
I think not being able to undo is a preference, and you'll get people liking and others disliking it, maybe have something like 1 undo a game, or even incentivize not using it somehow - maybe they get something a little extra if they don't use it, not something that would break the game though, I do think that making the placing smoother, via let go of mouse button is better overall though
Good art and ambience. I second that it's too easy for a strategy game... and the opponent seems to run out of cards, so at some point I face a empty field. I also wish there was a way to take back cards placed on your turn (undo?).
The vibe of this game is excellent. Even with this short experience, I feel pulled into this world. Great art and effects, and love the punny names!
Was fun to playtest this, Killer Whale still my favorite card :)
Hey Professor Monkee! I'm happy I got to playtest this early. Great job on the game!
Original art style. I love card games, so it is in the top of my list for this JAM!
Love the art style! stong inspriation form inscription but it has it own uniqe flare and identity.
I will be back for more, my first run was a poison heavy very fun!
Sidenote: I seem to be getting stuck on a mac and firefox on the second screen! but i moved to google chrome and it seems to work fine!
A very well-made and complete experience with a cool wizardry theme. The music, UI, card design, and gameplay were all done really well, and the music was subtle and very fitting of the atmosphere.
My favourite part is definitely the art of the game, simply perfect.
The only issue I encountered was the game's difficulty being far too easy for a strategy game, though maybe I just got a lucky run.
Outside of that, a pretty fun short card battle experience!
