Thanks for coming by anyway! Yeah, I was gonna just not submit since it wasn't really playable, but decided I might as well, since I bothered to spend all that time working on it already haha;
And yeah, the whole thing is basically just a digitised board game! I've been toying around with board game design recently, and with bringing more design ideas from board games into video games. Most of the mechanics are nabbed from existing board games here and there moreso than video games. I was thinking I might have a go at a physical version if this prototype came out well, but to be honest I think it needs a little more time in the oven so to speak ;)
If you'd like to check out an actually playable version, I did eventually get around to hooking up most of the loose ends I'd left hanging in my Jam submission. Still rather clunky, but you can play it here: https://wrygondryn.itch.io/court-of-pastries-post-jam
