Nice game! Lots of content. I assume it's basically all free assets, but put to good use! Had alot of similarities to our game and at one point we actually were kind of going this direction as well. Then dropped it to focus on the main idea. :)
Yes, you’re absolutely correct! Apart from the attacks and UI elements, which were quickly made (a full day of drawing and tweaking), everything else was more refined or was good from the get go.
