Really neat to see someone submit a game similar to great deck builders like Clank, Dominion, and Thunderstone! Animations for the cards were really slick as well! Only gripe I have is (and maybe i was doing something wrong) I felt that I had to click the card, then then enemy, then the card again in order to attack. Otherwise, great game and great work! :)

Absolutely delightful! Would've liked a visual effect for the stuns and maybe some of the cards but it's surprising to see a deck builder in such a small jam! <3
I played for about 2 hours, you should be proud that you've managed to create a game that engaging. I died right at the end though! With a New Game + option I would've gone right back I think, or with a bit more variety. This is not a criticism, but an encouragement to keep going and develop this!
I actually built a strategy around heals and stuns and each colour having a role, surprising depth!
This is amazing, the art style, the game mechanics, the aesthetic, it all gels really well together to make a very relaxing game! I would suggest totally continuing to develop this idea further and you'd have a marketable game. Some things I'd do to improve the game would be allowing the player to sell cards from their inventory (since it's a bit rough when I want to sell my inventory cards to buy a new shop item but I can't select cards from my inventory to sell) and maybe allow the player to keep mana between turns instead of resetting it. I really enjoyed this and I think you did an amazing job on it! I look forward to your future projects and games.
