I really liked the cards, how they worked and the strategy behind them in turn based battles.
I think the mechanic was well made and really fun to play.

In case it helps, maybe there's some minor bugs like placing cards over other cards (see screenshot below).



I think any bugs are minor and you did a great job.

Wow, you did a whole deck building game in this short period of time, amazing job! it feels very polished and the pixel art looks great (especially the kaijus)! I was struggeling a bit with reading the kaiju and was wondering why it sometimes wouldnt get damage though ;D Also stumbled over a small bug I think (or maybe I missed something): I got a unit back on my hand after equipping it with the "goes back to hand" effect, but I wasn't able to replace it on the board, although I had enough energy. But other than that, really, really great game!

Very nice work!

I liked how the difficulty curve grew. Each new boss was challenging, but still winnable with proper skill. For a jam game, very good balance. Had a lot of fun when I could collect ~28 damage for a unit (put building x2 damage to a unit with 7 damage and still double damage on top), but that's not the norm, it's really luck (couldn't repeat as well)

Nice work!

Great game with lots of potential. UI was clean and pretty understandable (though enemy intentions were a little hard to notice). Lots of cool mechanics which seem to be a mix between numerous roguelike deckbuilders.

Obviously it was made for a jam so don't expect super cool card mechanics but would be nice to see card combos in the future that can work together in creative ways.

Holy cow great work! I did not expect to play a full-on card battler during a game jam! This gave me Inscryption meets Into the Breach vibes. I think it was a genius mechanic to have your discarded cards turned into "scrap" to fuel ability cards. Ditto with having all cards leftover at the end of a turn scrapped so that you start fresh each round (even if my inner MTG nerd died a little each time I had to discard a powerful card). The art was really fantastic, and the UI/menus were silky smooth. 

Though I did have a hard time at first understanding why some of my units weren't doing damage, and what the Kaiju's moves were going to be. Even after learning what the shield and the plus/sword meant, it seemed like the units that took damage was random. It also took me a second to figure out where my scrap counter was at. Finally, and it's my inner MTG geek saying this, but I wished that the Kaiju didn't have trample even if it makes complete thematic sense. Justice for the hunters!

I had fun killing Ragnarok, thanks for making this!

Thanks a lot for your feedback. As a MTG nerd myself i discussed about that trample also with my no MTG nerd partner but we ended up adding it to make it more challenging. Normally i would say you "read the card explain the card" but in this case we had troubles explaining the game and there are some mechanics hidden and not well explained (like scrap, armor, etc), people that never played a card game are having a bad time understanding some concepts that for us are natural like attack and defense. So im glad a card game enoyer like you had a good time. Thanks for playing and killing Ragnarok to keep us safe

Thanks a lot for your feedback, in fact i discovered the game "works" in mobile pretty well, at least you can drag and do everything, but of course the interface was not intended to be working that way. Thanks!

Fantastic entry and probably a great idea for a full-game! had a lot of fun playing it! Really well thought out!

Developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback, fullgame is a hell of a challange but we are considering it, at least to include more features in a more complete post jam version. Glad you liked it!
