This game looks amazing. Excellent graphics. I recognized the tune in the intro from soundimage, good stuff there.

Character models look great and have a ton of personality. They have different poses for their various states, actions are clear and don't last too long, and even the backgrounds look good without being distracting.

Selecting and playing moves is a little janky. It doesn't work the way the tutorial says it should. In order to use a card I had to:

1. Click the character I want to perform the action with
2. Click the card I want to use
3. Click the target for the action
4. Click the card again

I recommend finding a way to drop either step 2 or step 4. I can see that you're trying to make it easier to see the full text of the card with this method, but it's just not intuitive.

Kinda funny that Chameko, the "Dark" type character, is brightly colored. Seems a bit counterintuitive. I guess it's a Naruto-esque reference?

I didn't know I needed to right click to move on the overworld. There should be a popup or tooltip for that.

I didn't realize that right click cancels a card selection until I tried doing it.

I really like that the type chart is accessible in battle and that you can see the enemy's type by selecting them.

It's also pretty cool that you can see the "types" of the cards each character is holding. It helps with strategizing.

Some enemies attacked Tetsuko and made her go into her "exhausted" animation. I used a card to refresh her but it just wasted my move. Either there's something not working right with the move or states need to be communicated better.

Cards mention doing X number of damage but health indicators in the top of the screen are presented as bars. I think segmented health bars like the presentation in the lower left would work better with numbers this low.

Another thing that could help improve the UI is displaying the types of each character in the box that displays their name, HP, etc. I know you can get that info by hovering over each character, but it would reduce the amount of mousing around that I need to do and would make it easier to understand the battlefield at a glance.

I like that I can adjust my deck in between battles.

I like the UI for deck adjustment overall - I can see what cards are in each girl's deck, I can see their special attributes, I can even review what each card does pretty easily. There does seem to be a little bit of an issue with how I would expect to move around the screen for adding and removing cards: I want to click the card I want to remove and click the button at the bottom of the deck to remove it, but that's the "Add card" button; the "remove" button is under the card preview. I understand why it is the way it is and it works well enough, but I feel like something about the flow of adding and removing cards needs to be adjusted to make it feel right.

When presenting new cards, there should be a way for the player to review what those cards do. Maybe instead of presenting them in the compact "in hand" format, show each card individually side-by-side?

I would like some additional popup or way to get info on the different states like "haste" so I can understand what that means.

 - It's a little hard trying to target this enemy. The hitbox for clicking it needs to be bigger.

One thing that I'm going to nitpick is the motivation behind these characters. Who are they? Why are they magical girls? It's not explained well in the game. Just a little more backstory at some point (either in the intro, scattered through the game, or both) could add depth to the story.

=Summary=

While I didn't have enough time to play through the full experience, what I did see I liked a lot overall. There are some heres-and-theres to polish up, but overall this game is very well done.

I had a blast playing Tricolor Wonders. It is a very polished and nice looking game, complete with transformation animations and such. To be able to reach this kind of level in only a month deserves high praise. If I didn’t know, I would be very surprised if someone told me that this is a game jam game; if this was released on Steam right now as a full game, I wouldn’t even question it.

Having some exploration bits to pick up some cards was a pleasant surprise; I like the fact that each girl is unique and different (and can even pick up items for you), and I noticed the faster running speed on Chameko. I played until the end and defeated Elizabeth because it was very engaging and enjoyable to play. Changing my deck to prepare for fights, before and in-between feels good and there’s a good amount of planning and strategy involved. I also appreciate some of the puns and references.

For criticism, it could use better writing/story for a more proper goal or motivation to defeat the monsters. It needs a little more emotion. Although few, the Elizabeth voice lines are quite distracting for someone who understands Japanese; it needs to have some relation to what is being said or it will feel disconnected. That being said, the others are great. Each girl has a passive ability, but this is only shown during the rest sections between fights - which made me confused why Chameko’s cards are suddenly different at first. It should be shown in the inventory menu. I also feel that the 2x damage needs some balancing, some cards that deal high damage basically become un-defendable/insta-death for both the player and the enemy. Try fine-tweaking them like 1.1x, 1.2x, etc. The total immunity can make me feel like a god just because my character is of a particular type. In terms of UI, there needs to be a clearer indication when a girl is exhausted or downed, because my eyes are on the cards most of the time, it’s hard to notice the animation or namecard at the top. An extra touch to pull the card out and make it on-top on hover would be nice too, so I don’t have to select it to view the full text all the time.

Overall, I genuinely had great fun. Amazing work!
