Nice work, I like the simple pixel-y art style and music. The core gameplay idea is nice, but I was also affected by the bug where it was sometimes showing the wrong cards/not all the cards.
Fun game! I included it in my Chip ‘N Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
I really liked the idea behind this game, using synergy to combine card attributes to give yourself a better outcome was a great idea. I found the white things a little too small, but thats really just looking at balacing the game.
It was actually a relatively late addition @finalcoke made to be able to squish the bugs with the mouse and it's brilliant! Had sort of planned to give the bugs slightly bigger detailed sprites, but prioritizing certain mechanics probably played better it's favor.
Thanks for the feedback and for hosting a fun jam!
Really nice game! For picking the cards for the second level i picked up all the 18 cards not knowing that it will carry forward till the next round(or was it a bug, i don't know) i couldn't complet wave 3 since i had just one sprinkler, food and liquid nitrogen. Otherwise the audio and gameplay was excellent!
Yeah, there's a decent bug with the building ATM. Hope to fix it after the jam.
Thanks @Jamail did an awesome job with the music and sfx and @Ranyo7 pulled out the stops for our lovely menus and critters!
The game can be a bit weird if you get a wrong hand (like you start with the cards who cannot stop the bugs), but considering it was done in 2 days, this is a very good job! Reminded me of Plants vs Zombies :D
I like the sounds and the "tower defence" aspect of the game.
Getting a dead hand in a card game does really suck. Maybe adding a muligan option for the first hand would be good. Unfortunately the deck building part is kind of broken, but hopefully it'll work a bit better with a short update; there's so many cards that are in the game but can never show up :'(.
Thanks for playing and giving your feedback!
Creative use of the theme and good gameplay. My main criticism is that a lot of times it feels like you don't draw the right cards for it to even be possible to defend the deck (e.g. if you just get one sprinkler and no other defences).
That's due to one of the biggest bugs :'(. In between each level, you're supposed to get new cards added to your card pool and be able to build up your deck to have higher chances of pulling the cards you want. I hope its a a quick fix we can do after the jam since it's working pretty well in the editor, RIP
Thanks a ton for giving feedback!
This game is really good, exepect it does not fit the correct aspect ratio
Interesting, we tried to make it work on the windowed standalone resolution. But it doesn't scale to fullscreen well probably. That'd be a good post-jam-fix, thanks for the feed back! Glad you enjoyed it!
