That was an incredibly well done and fun game! I think what really stands out to me is the art, it's incredibly well done, some of the best I've seen in the entire jam! I also really like the turn based combat and choosing the best attacks to use. The cherry on top is the parry system, I always love games that implement those and it was fun to use. Great job on your first jam!
Absolutely amazing game! I love the art it so well done! It feels very polished and its so much fun to play! Amazing job!
Some music and SFX would certainly go a long way though!
Excellent art and presentation! Though I don’t usually gravitate towards turn-based combat, I like the stamina conservation that’s baked into the combat. I can easily see this becoming more important as the game goes on, where more powerful attacks may be needed, but each one can take up a significant amount of stamina, thus requiring more strategy.
Fo me it's the art, just awesome. Good job!
Art style is amazing, and the upgrades and encounters are so creative! Become the one true gambler
your dog Terry could've done a better job since there is no sfx but he's a cool dog anyway. Liked the turn based combat and the graphics. A tumor that wants to help? Thanks
Love the parry mechanic! Very satisfying to hit. The art is really good too.
The best dungeon crawler like game ever!! I cant believe this all was drawn by one guy (and his dog Terry) in such a short amount of time. IT is very polished and fun!
Wow, for a first game jam this was an absolute blast! I loved the mechanics and the visuals are incredible, and just as I thought the game just had 2 enemies you surprised me with that bulky one LOL
I've gotten no bugs, but I think the game is lacking music and sounds (atleast I didn't hear any), it would make the experience even more enjoyable :D
Hello, thank you for playing! I've teamed up with my dog, he was meant to do the sound effects but ultimately fell shot :( Since it was a bit hard for him to google stuff with no hands
great art and great controls pretty cool game
The art and animation are excellent, could be a bit faster paced and the humanoid enemies could use another frame or 2 to telegraph.
Thank you for playing, will definetly do more complex attacks and combos if I do decide to continue with this project!
the art/animations are so well done, it's so impressive specially for a first game!! I tried playing on both browsers but i couldn't make the sound work idk if it was a bug or just not implemented but it would be nice to have some sound feedback in the battles as well. Very great game and i think I'm somewhat of a gambling enthusiast myself too :)
Hello, unfrotunately since it's my first finished project, it was held together by glue and sheer determination. The audio system would cause sporadic crashes for the web build and I didn't have the time to fix it in time :( Thank you for playing though!
The pixel art is so well done. Amazing job!
If you continue development, it would be really cool to have more challenging battles, with enemies that combo you/enemies with tighter attacking animations. I like the idea of a slay the spire with time-based parries SO MUCH. You got the core of a very very interesting game. AND with this quality you are new to game jams??
Congratulations!
