Blackthornprod always creates masterpieces on an artistic level, GG Noa.
Yo, really creative use of the theme. It was interesting to play a dice and card game at the same time, essentially. Art and audio are also top notch again. Only wish the narrative was a little bit more more explained in the beginning. Why am I doing this? Who am I? Why do I have these dice?
Lol, the second I saw the thumbnail I recognized the developer.
The game looks and sounds amazing as always, I especially love this game's style with lots of black and grey. Unfortunately, the gameplay is a bit lacking. There isn't much instruction on how to play so it took a while to figure out. Once I did it was more interesting, but it feels impossible to really do anything without being super lucky. Sometimes the only cards available will be self-hurting ones so there's nothing I can do. I would suggest maybe having a safeguard against this in the code or something. Also, it would've been nice to see a representation of the moon's health so I can see my progress. But even with the questionable gameplay, the graphics and audio alone make this game really good.
Amazing visuals as always :)
It took me a moment to understand the mechanics but I managed to extinguish the moon
Overall awesome production
I relay like your art style. Game look really good and it's polished with juicy sounds effects and climatic music, but lacks content and from the beginning I didn't now how to play.
The art is out of this world { maybe on the moon }
The gameplay however seems very interesting, I played around for a couple of minutes trying to figure out how to effectively play but sadly I didn't get the hook. That Art tho... oh my, so good.
Absolutely stunning art and atmosphere. However I approached this game as an interesting puzzle when you need to manage your health, mana and dice, but it's very hard to, when you're constantly loosing health.
I liked the game! However, the buzzing noise was really annoying. For a second I thought it was my PC fan.
Nice Art looks really good. But not able to win the game.
Really loved the art and effects.
Note : I am one of your subscriber. I really like your arts.
The atmosphere is incredible. Took us a while to figure out how it works but we were so immersed the whole time we enjoyed every moment. Super cool game. Super cool world.
Cool visuals but the gameplay isn't much enjoyable :/
This game has good art and great game-play but I may need a tutorial on this.
Looks great as usual, but the gameplay is really hard to understand at first (I read description on the page and in game tips but still was struggling to understand how to play) but it gets more clear after a few tries) Glad to see you here
Pretty cool game! Presentation is amazing, but gameplay is not that great. Took a bit of time to understand what's going on and what is my goal. But it's still a good game!
Very cool, I enjoyed this one a ton.
Fantastic aesthetics as always from blackthornprod games.
However, like others said, it was a bit confusing starting out.
other than that, great submission.
It was hard to understand the rules at the start, but once I understood them, it was very fun. I really like the aethetics and the music and sound help too. I also loved the art:)
I was really frustrated when playing in the beginning but as soon as I understood the game mechanics it became really fun to in rapid succession spam out different cards like I was having the greatest turn in a card game. Beautiful game design and sound design. Really simple but incredible presentation. Would recommend!
Havent been able to win yet, but the aesthetic is neat. It's a bit difficult to read the guide since most of the assets are just as dark.
