I can't believe you made this in 4 days! Extremely impressive, so nice to play, I not only wanna return to this game after the jam but 100% will be following what y'all do outside of this. Wonderful game.

Very unique art style i really love how this game looks with the mix of 2d graphics and irl shots!
Hey, thank you so much for the feedback, really glad you liked the game! :)
Really sorry you also experienced the purple dot bug, thank you very much for letting us know. We are going to try our best to solve the mystery of the purple dot, and hopefully have it fixed soon after the jam in the next update. :) Thanks again!
This is such a cool and original idea! I was enjoying it, but couldn't finish unfortunately due to a bug where instead of rendering certain cards, it shows a purple dot (circled in the screenshot below - I censored out the spoilers ;) ). Great job though! I'd love to revisit it if you update it later.
Hey there! Oh no, I’m really sorry that happened during your play through! Thank you so much for letting us know about it and sharing a screen shot of the problem. We are going to be updating the game shortly after the jam, so hopefully we can fix that bug along with a few others that have occurred. It’s the first time we have seen this problem, so thank you very much for sharing!
Hopefully you can have a bug free play through next time! :) Glad you were enjoying the game up until that point though!
Thank you very much! :)
Super impressive game! Great use of video and thought the graphics and everything fit very well.
Mustic was great, cute little mini games, awesome job!
"Wow!" Was my first reaction when I saw this come up on the feed. I was really surprised to see an FMV game (which I absolutely love as a genre) in the jam. Needless to say I was not disappointed. This game was awesome and every part felt really well crafted! The camerawork and acting was all stellar and it's extremely impressive that all this was made in under 4 days! Excellent work and I can't wait to see what else you make in future!
I could only joking about FMV game for a jam, but this id real, well done!
This is insane! Completely different from anything I have ever seen before. Super cool!
Very unique type of game for this jam! Though I think I may have accidentally skipped some stuff - I was able to guess some of the card pairs pretty easily (I didn’t even use the glowing crystal in the cave). I think it may also have been good if the “scale” theme also affected the gameplay somehow - maybe the cards could change size to affect their power?
But it’s still a really interesting and novel take on the theme! Well done.
Wow, what a gem! Amazing entry. We're definitely saving this to play through it later. 1000 points for creativity! We might have cheated a bit and used the hint to get through the first puzzle
Nice job!
This is such an interesting take of a game's visual, it's very cinematic and cool, well done!
Being someone who cant draw cool graphics for a game, I find “using real world actors and scenes” an amazing idea. Plus, bonus points for the acting. Theming is on point, gameplaywise is not quite my style, but still pretty fun. Congrats!
I love the artistic direction in this one! very original. The filming is great :O
Was this really all filmed and programmed in the last 4 days? that's pretty awesome. The cinematic quality is really high and incorporating them with the fantasy graphics was really neat. I'll have to come back to this later.
I love the use of film, photos, and digital art. Super original and unique! Very fun to play, and the puzzles were super cute and fun to play with. The music was amazing, I found myself singing along and bopping to the beat. Nice work! <3
Yooooooo, you're the guys who made "Static Echoes" for last year's Scream Jam! I'm very glad to see you guys join another game jam and create another wonderful game! That being said, I had a pretty good time playing this game. The way you combined FMV into your games never ceases to amaze me.
