Cool to see it was made in scratch!

Thank you! Gambits were the #1 thing I wanted to implement. Big fan of Unicorn Overlord and I think the gambit system has a lot of potential as an autobattler!

I've done an online card game before + plenty of networking stuff at work, so implementing the online mode was the smoothest part of the jam! (~2 hours total to set up a simple python server with FastAPI + MySQL db and throw it on GCP)

I like the world map! I appreciate the WIP pages, it gave a pretty good outline of what this game wanted to be. 

The audio is definitely one of its strong suits-- It's neat that my punches were sync'd to the music, and I think you have something that you could explore there when you implement the active skills-- (MUD + Rhythm genre???)

Great job!

-It seems like I can keep fighting the monster after reaching 0 hp.

-I don't see Mud School on the world map. Where's my home-town?!

Thank you so much for the constructive feedback!

I agree 100%. I wanted to show the character portraits and little sparks/vfx on attacks! Alas not enough time. I struggled with UI/placement this jam, there's a lot of info at once, so sizing/placing it reactively was awkward and time consuming. I'll be looking for (or making my own) library for UI. I tried LUIS and it wasn't for me.

The puzzles were satisfying when I knew how it worked and the minimal aspect was visually powerful. It felt like a puzzle box! Presentation overall is great.

I was also confused by level 1 (clicking+dragging)-- I see you addressed this in the comments, but adding a one-time notice in-game for level 1 or just mentioning it on the itch web page.

Thank you!

Very charming animations!

Looks like I get an error on Firefox (same as Jukio). It worked just fine on Brave though!

Thank you! I always thought asynchronous autobattlers were neat. Implementing the client with LuaSocket was easier than I expected!

Thank you! I was hoping to get around to adding equipment/level ups between rounds in the Challenge mode, but there's only so much time in a week!

I used Cursor :) 

I hate UI and UI hates me, so I outsourced most of the widgets to AI-- at most, I handled size/placement. At first it was a static box just printing out the last 10 actions in my `allLogMessages`, but it did a pretty good job adding the scroll feature!

See attached.  Full code for my `widgets/scrollbox.lua` and the necessary code to use it in the simulation: `states/battle.lua` (see HUMP gamestate)

I might post the full source code later.

Coolant is OP! Heroes never give up!

I like the colors+patterns it creates when you get to bullet heaven territory. Would be cool to see a shader trail for the lasers or maybe another color thrown into the mix!

Really fun concept. Nice!

Beautiful presentation!

Nice! Is there a way to reset the level?

Nice! Its fun to bash into other planes

Sound effects + visuals are great!

I like Battery Man's smokes

My best score was 5.02!
