Unique entry! The fight was not too cruel and not too easy. I liked it a lot!

The depth here is crazy. I love how many cards there are, it really helps make the runs feel unique. The boss battle itself is also really good. I like how it combines a lot of the things about the other ships and mashes them all together into one big enemy. (or three, technically) My one complaint is I wish there was some way to heal yourself.

The ArtificerReally fantastic entry here! I definitely see the inspiration from both Slay the Spire and FTL, you've really built off of the ideas of those games so well. I'm curious how you got the balance to feel so good in such a short amount of time, a game like this does not seem easy to balance properly.

Ad InfinitumYou blew my mind with this one Loten! congratulations on such an amazing and polished game, you truly pay homage to the great games you list as inspiration!

Acid SewersThis is wonderful! I love Slay the Spire, and this felt just as fun to play! Really enjoyed checking out all the cards and trying different builds. The boss is balanced and was a nice challenge. Great work!

Shotgun ExorcistHad a great time with this on stream and came back today to finish the boss! I don't know why I didn't hit continue on stream and have a second run at the boss. I think I just assumed I had to start over. Love the balance, the different card interactions and the surprise with the boss at the end. It's crazy, because this round was all about making a boss fight, but I was so engrossed in the game I forgot all about it, so it came as a surprising delight! Excellent work.

Mops and BotI've tried (and failed) to make my own asymmetric deck-builder before, so I am very impressed by your implementation. One quick suggestion is to preview the enemy's intention like they do in Slay the Spire, as I think it adds a lot more strategy and depth to the gameplay. Other than that, great game with great synergies, had me play through twice to try out the different fun decks.

UsurpWHATTTTTTT!!!! This is amazing! i love deck builder games (never played a digital version of one though) and this was so well made! All the variety and synergy needed in a deckbuilder! Brilliant entry!

Gladiator BeatsReally well done ! it was so challenging but satisfying, you really made me think about every one of my action x) And I really appreciate the fact that if you die, you don't have to restart everything, and you get a chance to get a better deck. Great job really impressive!

SweetLand Boss RushI have a secret weapon; I work nightshift. I spent a lot of time coding and had to cut out a lot of features, leaving me unsatisfied with the result. However, reading your comment has made it all worth it. Thank you for your kind words, they put a smile on my face. I'm excited to see your playthrough and appreciate that you streamed my game.
Amazing! Everything is done so well, had a really great time playing it

one-eyed Pete vs The KrakenGreat deck building space battle game. I enjoyed the whole thing from choosing which cards to select and then using them in battle. Very well done.

Full Retro PanicI'm a sucker for rogue-like deck building games and this one did not disappoint! SO GOOD. Two rounds in a row you get five stars across the board from me haha. Would absolutely play more of this.

My Last 3 Brain CellsI feel that haha. It's hard to feel satisfied with only two weeks to make it work. But besides the fact that you keep picking genres I really like this one really just came together well. Sill so far this is my absolute favorite for the round. Felt less like I was judging an entry and more like I was just playing a good game.
