Oh wow I haven't seem a game do cards and the cell idea. That was unique. What a great concept. Hard to grasp but it was great to go check out.

Thanks! Yea didn't have enough time / capacity to combine all the tools but definitely still working on it to make something for full release if possible!

I'm a bit confused about the gameplay, but the art is nice and I like the animations at the beginning, well done :)

haha didn’t have the time to tie the cards properly to the vein systems so game play is a pretty weak right now but hopefully we’ll fix that with some updates soon! Thanks for checking it out!

I don't understand how to play. There's no indication about what is happening or what to do. I use the cards but I don't see any change.

Developer

appreciate you checking it out! Yea not enough time to tie it all together but wanted to get something up still! 😅

Couldnt grasp on anything from the gameplay. The game doesnt communicate in any form if an action from the player is really doing something. 

I didnt get why the game punish you when you use an invalidated card. And I thought that the bandit card would create a bandit on the map but i cant tell what really happens.

I liked the music though. I know that the game is supposed to be like a minion defense by creating the new minions like tha blue ones, but when i have zero cards i cant do anything but wait for the game to finish, and i waited, but it didnt happen anything xd

Thanks for the feedback and taking the time to check it out! Unfortunately we were a dev short to tie it all together but definitely gonna keep working on this and get the cards actually “working” with maybe some Wario-ware like placement ux experiences
