I really like the visuals! Unfortunately the game seems to crash every few minutes (seems to happen when I click a character then click on a tile to move) and I'm not able to see how it plays out to the end. In any case, I could see the strategic gameplay elements being fleshed out to make a compelling, atmospheric thinking game!
Hi, that means a lot! Yeah, we, unfortunately, didn't get to fix the frequent crashes and had to release it as is. We are planning to update it and have it fixed by the end of the jam. Would be awesome if you'd try it again then! Thank you :)
This game looks and sounds amazing, unfortunately, despite reading the game page it was a little hard to tell what was going on. Also I, unfortunately, ran into a crash about five minutes in. Other than that, this is a great submission.
Hi! We're glad you enjoyed the visuals and sounds.
We sadly had to publish it before being able to fix the crashes. We already have it fixed and are planning to release the updated version right after the jam ends. Thanks again!

Game looks incredibly good and audio fits well! That's a lot of work here done in 10 days, congrats. Just a bit sad cuz I got multiple game breaking bugs (crashing it) after a few seconds of gameplay, when interacting with things.
yeah we were trying to work that out up to the last second.
think we got it mostly worked out. will be updating after the jam is over.
thanks for the kind comments!
Graphics and overall style is what captures your attention right away. Unfortunately, crashes happen often :(
But for 10 days with just two people — solid result!
Suggestion: maybe highlight a charachter in UI who's turn it is? I can't right away recognise what character this is comparing with the description page. Really hope you plan on to apply some polish, as I'd love to return to it later!
thanks!
thats a good idea for the character ui for turns. will probably need a flashy animation to bring the player's eye to the character.
will be updating the game after the jam is over with bug fixes and some graphical polish.
I'd absolutely love it to come back to it, mate! And good luck with your work! :)
its a really great game(i think), my 2 brain cell aren't compatible with this yet :(
Don’t worry, it’s a pretty tough game^^’ Just try and explore the different kind of tile interactions, you’ll get it eventually! We hope you still enjoyed it.

Overall though, I love the atmosphere and the graphics, especially for the storm, look incredible. Unfortuantely I was never able to get further than 1 or 2 full rounds without the game crashing so I feel like I'm missing out on some of the really good parts of the game. But overall I really dig it and would love to play another version once the bugs are patched.
hey thanks for the input! we definitely know its super buggy in this stage and have fixed some of them but cant update it. will be releasing an updated and more rounded out version once the jam is over.
thanks for liking the graphics!
This is so clean, and the aesthetic is beautiful. It’s pretty fun too once you get the hang of it. Awesome work!
Thank you so much! It means a lot.
thanks sam!
we appreciate the kind words
