Game description
Memory card game using endangered animals' spirit to defeat an evil soul who's corrupting the forest.

The memory game was inspired by the concept of having to reveal secrets to play.

At the same time, the narrative is about finding the secrets that this shadow hides from you, and understanding what this means.

Small Palette

Limit your colors to 4

Cheat Mode

Let players break the rules with things like infinite lives or invincibility

Really loved the graphics and visuals and that eerie haunting music was a very nice accompaniment.  It was difficult to read the cards and I know there were a lot of them but if they could have been a bit bigger then my old eyes might have had an easier time. I'm sure the game will do well in the jam - well done to you on a good submission.

Small Palette used is very good! It forms a unique style, which reminds me of blood, mystery, and darkness! There are some games that test memory and luck.

I’m absolutely thrilled with the gameplay concept and visuals! It’s simply amazing—I adore these slightly eerie designs that create such an indescribable atmosphere. The way you’ve worked with a limited color palette is stunning! The music and overall ambiance are wonderfully eerie yet oddly soothing, fitting perfectly with the setting. This is a fantastic game, and such an original take on the theme truly impressed me!

I liked the artstyle and overall theme of this game.

Thank you!

Very interesting and meditative game! Beautiful cards. I didn't quite understand what kind of strip appears next to health. Having guessed the paired cards, the animal still attacks. I didn't see an answer in the information window as to why this happens.

Thanks for the feedback! We’ll take note of it. The point is that the boss attacks in every turn, and you have to act consequently (kinda like a pokemon fight)

Really interesting game! Loved the art style and colors. Two critiques I have:

1. Something about the art for the cards makes it hard for me to see them. Not sure if it's just a lot of detail in a small space or maybe it's just me. Love the art, but maybe reduce the small details to not make it overwhelming.

2. Not sure if this is a bug or feature, towards the end of the round a few cards flipped over that I had not touched then the flipping animation played again after a few seconds, but I was still able to see all of the cards. 

Overall, great job! Very creative game play and use of the theme.

thanks for the feedback! about 2. I think you encountered a special card, which flips two cards so you always know where they are. Your game was awesome btw

Great art that perfectly matches the color palette for the optional Jam mission. A very entertaining way to do turn-based combat.

The wiki idea was great!

Art and ambience are gorgeous. I love dark forest / corrupted nature settings, and cool monster designs. The gameplay was a little hard to understand, but once you do it, it's really satisfying trying to remember where are the pairs and guessing when activate it.

Great job, compas!

The art direction of this game is insane, it reminded us of Over the Garden Wall and that's always a treat! <3
Also love the detail that there's a wiki, games should go back to those, they are so welcomed. Great job!

Very nice art of the game, I found myself unsure if the turns were timed or just based on my moves. So either way, I ended up not thinking too much and shuffling random cards until I just died. the small palette works well aestethically, but my smooth brain cant rememeber well without colors. Great game, wish we could just type "kill" to extinction irl
