I really like this!
The character design and gameplay are both fantastic.

Ah thank you so much for your kind words! There is still a lot that can be built upon this as a concept and It breings me joy that you enjoyed the vibes in my adventure!
~ Reading your comment left me feline great! Thanks for pawsings your life to play my game, meow!
I'm enjoying this game! I did run into quite a few bugs, but nothing gamestopping. Though for me the characters were mostly just purple blobs, so that was a let-down. Only Cthulhu actually rendered properly for me in the browser. 
It's an interesting take on rock paper scissors. When I first grokked it I thought that it wouldn't be fun, but it's a compelling little mechanic, and I started to feel like certain enemies had patterns of choosing certain moves rather than being completely random. Am I right on that?

I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the game despite the issues! The purple blobs are VERY strange due to the game being primarily black and white. I might suggest downloading one of the downloadable files for your operating system and seeing if the issue persists.
I'm happy to hear someone reference the battle mechanics as the classic rock paper scissors. I had planned on combing resources to your attacks for enhanced attacks and adding additional columns for challenging enemies.
Sadly all the enemies run on the same logic and don't have specific patterns. However, they have access to more health & will sometimes prioritize using it. Adding additional combat styles would have been better.
Thank you so much for playing my game :) ~ meow
Np! I had an interesting bug that only showed up for me in the browser. Certain levels weren't loading but some were, seemingly at random. It turned out that the code that loaded the levels had the incorrect node(or scene) name. The capitalization was off ("Level1.scene" vs "level1.scene"). Godot didn't break in the editor on that, but when compiled for HTML5 it did break. It was a weird bug to figure out.
Idk if that's your issue, but it's weird that Cthulhu rendered fine for me.
Sadly I can't try it locally because I'm on mac.
Hi! Thanks for playing ~ This was the biggest jam I have attempted in terms of scope, but it's great to see it received well! The art style was designed right at the start & helped me to focus on the final goal!
As for the combat, all enemies follow the same logic, with health and healing being the only difference. There were plans that the enemies would have different elements & you would combine resources with your weapon to make elemental attacks & then you could pick and use resources appropriately.

Aww thank you so much I really appreciate that a lot! I wish I had a bit extra time to explain the mechanics of the combat.. but hopefully its easy enough to figure out. :) The UI could of been a bit better at explaining the controls. :) Thanks for flying by! ~ meow.
