It's fun for a bit,
one big problem that I had is. I became stuck in the tutorial at the: "place a unit at the left side of your dragon." I tried it a couple of times reseting the tutorial and all skip a turn, but it doesn't work for me. (Using google chrome)
Pros:
- It's fun
- Graphics are cute
- Music is nice, doesn't get annoying
- Most likely more fun in a higher resolution due to better view.
- Interesting concept for a low res game
Improvements:
- Tutorial gets stuck for me.- The card deck hitbox need to be more clearer, sometimes it just doesn't seem to drag it out and place it.- The card under the next turn button is the most annoying one in my opinion as it sometimes cause me to skip a turn.- Attacking/walking seems to be a bit weird as it sometimes refuses to do the action even with the right amount of mana.- I can only seem to place one unit per turn and one spell. Meanwhile the enemy places 2 to 3 enemies per turn.- Dragging units doesn't always work, even with enough mana.Update: All problems that I ran into have been fixed with the newer version.
Thank you for noticing the fixes! And thank you for pointing them out in the first place. Without you, they'd still be in the game.
Awesome game, looks really fun and with lots of possibilities!
Thank you very much! I really worked a lot on it, so I'm glad you enjoyed it.
A small suggestion I have for after the jam maybe is to be able to exit fullscreen to like be able to move the screen(?, kinda weird to have to play at my secondary screen
Done! Press F11 to toggle fullscreen on and off.
