Cute game.  pretty easy to get a run of bad luck and have several turns with nothing but zeros though.  

Submitted(+3)

Looks really wicked, and plays slow, but i'ts pretty good. gj

Submitted(+1)

the battles are way too slow

pretty original idea but i think the connection to the theme is too loose

reminds me a lot of dicey dungeons

This is very much the type of game I love to play. Would love to see this turned into a full release. Great concepts. Definitely I feel is lacking is conveying information to the user, although this is always difficult in these short format games. 

The interface for dragging new pieces onto the wheel is super neat. My feedback would be to increase the pace of the game, allowing users the make impactful decisions at a greater rate. Thanks for making this game, great submission.

Developer

Thank you for playing! Yeah we unfortunately didn't have time to add a tutorial in the game. The battles tend to drag on a bit when healing is involved so a bit more agency during combat might be nice. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+2)

Really interesting idea! Clean visuals and overall very polished.

Developer

Thank you! Glad you liked it.

Just a fantastic game. The whole idea is great, the design is fantastic, and there's so many places to go with it. Only feedback (given in person) is changing the colours around.

Developer

Thank you very much! And yes, the colours could be more logical haha.

Developer

Thanks for taking your time to play the game on stream, really apreaciate the feedback :)!

You guys should be so goddamn proud of this game. It's so good.

Submitted(+2)

I really like the wheel mechanic I think you should expand on this

Developer

Glad you liked it, yeah it would be interesting to see how far you can take this mechanic

Submitted(+2)

cool game, nice concept and especially art! good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

Submitted(+2)

This is a really unique concept, and super cute. You pulled this off really well

Developer

Thank you! Delighted that you found it appealing.

Submitted(+2)

Love the art and the concept! 

Developer

Awesome, thanks for checking it out!

Submitted(+2)

Reminds me of pokemon duel, it could be expanded into a bigger game. Good work!

Developer

Cool, glad you think so!

Submitted(+2)

Nice take on the theme, and I found that the risk and reward factor for taking pieces was just right. Many of my battles lasted a while due to healing or simply hitting a brown 0 piece, but there's a ton of potential for other pieces that could make the gameplay loop even more chaotic and strategic. The art is great, and I really liked that all of the enemies were unique and fit together extremely well. Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah right now battles can last forever thanks to endless potential healing haha. Adding other pieces and mixing in new mechanics would be fun to try, glad you found potential in it!

Submitted(+2)

Great presentation! I like the ability to customize a lot, and the options are really thoughtful. The battles can be pretty tedious when both sides have healing. I had one battle where I must have done 50 spins and we were both back at full health. Something to do during the battles or way to speed them up would go a long way. Thanks for sharing!

Developer

Thank you! Yeah those heals can make battles way too long sometimes. Great feedback!

Submitted(+2)

Love the art for this! So cute

Developer

Thank you ^^

Submitted(+2)

The graphics and sound design here are great! I love the option to 'charge' your spin – adds a little bit of skill to an otherwise very random game. Customising your wheel was very nice too. Overall a really a great concept and well designed game!

Developer

Thank you very much! Charging and customizing are the only ways to affect the otherwise random battles so I'm glad you like those mechanics!

Submitted(+2)

The art/graphics are really cool. I feel that the gameplay is a bit static/repetitive, but other than that, it feels really good.

Developer

Thanks for checking it out! Yeah I can understand that it feels repetitive as you really only do one thing over and over, thank you for the feedback!

Submitted(+2)

Very fun game, i'd love to see how far this concept can go. Great work!

Developer

Awesome, thank you!

The idea is good but it's a bit bland, maybe let the player have more impact on the wheel and some feedbacks.
With some adjustment, it should be a nice game to chill !

Developer(+1)

Yeah we did not have enough time to fully balance the gamefeel with player interaction / keeping it random. Thanks for playing and hope you enjoyed it!

I understand, it's so frustrating to not have time to implement what we want !

Submitted(+2)

Cool concept and great execution! The art is also great :D Could be nice with some form of constant damage so battles don't take too long, but that might just be because I added too many heals :P

Developer

It warms my heart to hear that you liked the graphics <3 Yeah we sure could have balanced the game more, such as removing 0 damage tiles and lives.

Submitted(+2)

This is very Dicey Dungeons inspired and I love it! :D The wheel might sometimes be a bit too random, but it's really nice! Died at the last monster though :'( Nonetheless REALLY COOL! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking out our game, we didnt have reactions as awesome as your game but im glad you still liked it ^^! Did you know that we have a second board after you beat the first one :o?

Submitted

Wow really! I wanna see that second board! Back on the grind! ^^
