I really enjoyed ZAR. The comic book art style looks great, the music is pleasant, and the core idea is clear and engaging. It feels a bit like Balatro, but with dice, and there's plenty of room for cool mechanics. I've only beaten the first boss so far, so I definitely haven't seen everything yet, but even at this stage it already feels like a solid, polished alpha. The only thing is that the pacing can feel a bit slow at times when you're rolling and resolving all the dice, but that's also part of the charm. Overall, everything is already at a really good level. Best of luck with development and the Steam release!

Thank you so much! We’re still at a very early stage of development, so feedback like this is really valuable to us.
We’ll keep improving things like pacing and overall game flow based on player feedback as development continues. We’re especially happy to hear that you enjoyed the core mechanics, as that’s the foundation we want to keep expanding with more mechanics, synergies, and content.
Thanks again for playing ZAR and for the kind words!
