Cute art style
Our games look pretty similar! Even the same base art pack and with chargeable abilities, just different genres. It's cool to see a similar take on the theme that turned out so differently.
I really enjoyed the game. I'm not really one for the match-three genre, but adding the chargeable summons/abilities makes it a lot more fun for me, plus the adventurer moving along the top with a health bar.
I really liked the polish in this game with the sound effects and animations upon matching, very satisfying. And the ability to summon boss minions was really cool too, though I was never quite able to fully charge the boss summon. Nice entry!
I LOVE the artstyle! Goog implementation of the theme. Nice work!
Well done! The final boss mechanic wasn't quite clear from the beginning but i figured it out by room3. too bad boss upgrades don't carry over to the next level so connecting too many at once is a waste
Thank you for your feedback! About the carry over of the next level. I will change that in the future but was worried, that this will make the game too easy. And there was not enough time to rebalance the numbers.
I had fun playing this. The sound effects are really satisfying.
initially I didn't figure out how to play it, but once I got it becomes really addictive to me! Well done! Maybe some music could give it more atmosphere :)
Amazing game please make me stop
Really fun game; with some usability options and a clearer set of instructions, this could be a great game to expand on! I got very invested in this and was genuinely disappointed when it ended after four levels, really great stuff.
Thank you a lot! Do you have any suggestions for improving the usability?
At first I didn't understand how the mechanics work but once I got it, it was very fun =)
Thank you and also that you keep trying to understand the game! I will think about how I can improve it. I will play your game on Thursday, when I am back from the business trip.
Satisfying game! Great work!

Great game, had lots of fun -- feels so good chaining several monsters and see the hero take damage!
