I like the art and concept. Once I got a feel for what I was trying to do, it was fairly fun and enjoyable. I liked how the slimes really shake up the gameplay/strategy too. The only thing is a little more of a tutorial message at the start would be nice as I originally couldn't tell if the wind spell was my healing before I realized I was supposed to push them towards the center.
Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed it ^^ we'll keep in mind making a more through tutorial in the future ^^
that bad "players" hurting monsters :C they just want to live!
great spin on this years topic, good job!
exactly! to be denied life, just for someone else's EXP, truly scandalous!
and thank you!
Challenging and fun game!
I like the different monster variety and the wind spell it adds a fun layer of strategy to the game play!
I also like the pixel art, very clean and appealing.
P.S. I got a score of 35
not a bad score, you tied the score from the screenshots!
and thank you!
Heyya!
The idea is very similar to mine but executed way differently. Very interesting and fun interacting with the different animals ♥
i thought the same thing when seeing your game haha
and thank you!
I really like the idea. And while the roles are reversed it is similar to those herding mini games (e.g. in Zelda TP) but also gives those a twist. This is making the game familiar but unique. Even though the (very cute) monsters could be more intuitive.
Nice idea, it goes along well with the theme! Maybe the gameplay is a bit repetitive and the monster behaviors are not very intuitive, but overall I like the charm of the game, especially for the very nice graphics!
thank you! making the monsters more intuitive is definitely something which we didnt put enough effort into
I really like how each monster has their own moveset and you have to do something different for each type to heal them. Very cool game
Thank you!
Cute game, love the art!
thank you!
