This is a very complex game for a 50 hour jam. Nice job.
Thank you, that means a lot! We had a lot of work to do during the weekend,.
very nice polish work. Great concept, I do however feel like it is too hard considering how little time people spend on gamejam games. Also I died and have no idea why :/salty
Nice good! Mechanics are a bit confusing but I liked the art job!
This is a really awesome game! The tittle is great and the game is jam packed!
Awesome job!
It was really fun to play! I enjoyed being board instead of the player in this tabletop game.
PD: Loved the game title too
Thanks. :)
I have not yet rated the game as I am struggling to play. I've literally pressed every button on my keyboard but the "This mad Alchemist" message will not go away. I was trying to play behind it but was just confused. Even at full screen I couldn't read the buttons in the bottom left hand corner, I could only see the tops. The game looks beautiful but I unfortunately can't play
There Is a next tip button at the right top corner of the game. You should also check your Windows screen settings, where the scale option should be set to 100%.
We would be glad, if you give it a another try And leave the rating!
Thank you! That did it! My screen was at 250x, which is what windows recommended it to be. Before I couldn't see the 'next tip' or anything but the nail of 'next turn'. A really fun board game with lots of strategy both short and long term. I liked all of the various things that needed to be balanced like radiation and toxicity. A very fun experience all around!
it was quite fun to play. I was a little lost at first but I quickly took my ease. The polish is quite impressive as well as the number of assets, big gg to the artists and the team in general. I can't wait to see your next creations
Thank you sir!
Took forever to download! Enjoyed the concept and presentation a ton. I would've enjoyed the pacing to be a bit quicker. I got the good ending once but am not entirely sure how ha!
We are glad the long download didn't discouraged you and spent a nice time with our game, thank you!
Aesthetically this game is pretty much perfect in my opinion. The visuals as well as the sound design are beautiful and fit the game. As others have already said, the game has a few balancing problems though and a playthrough can take way too long. Obviously this is something you can't really fix in only two days, if you already put this much effort into the rest of the game, so this is only a tip for the future. And despite that, it is still very fun to play and probably one of the best games I have played so far. You really did a phenomenal job here.
Thank you so much for this comment.
That was the prettiest and most polished game I played from the GMTK 2022, by far!
It is really amazing what you all did in 48h! Great team work!
I loved it!
EDIT: By the way, it would be nice if the game had a windows port. The game took forever to download on my browser, but I totally get it!
Wow, thank you for your words!
It was hard 48 hours, but for these comments the work was worth it! Thank you.
Really Nice Game Amazing Presentation Art And Sound Design. Love It. Great Work!
Thanks for the feedback!
I am not a card game type, but this one I like. Excellent presentation, excellent idea to implement it as a board game resembling actual board games I played as a child.
It's always nice to hear that our game mechanics likes people who don't like them in general!
Presentation is top notch, especially enjoyed the alchemists sounds haha! Quite complex but the instructions were good to solve that. The gameplay on the other hand just didn't feel fun quite yet to me, too many times it felt like the cards I have don't do anything I want them to do so I just end up doing mostly random stuff. And even with the reduction cards it felt the progress I made was much too slow to keep me interested. Maybe with enough tweaking and balancing it could become quite interesting though, just need to keep the randomness at an acceptable level.
Thank you. Yeah we had very little time for some card balance. Maybe in the future. :)
Way too many tutorial pop ups for me, I did not read them after the 3rd or 4th pop up and still understood enough to play the game. I had a good time with it drawing cards and placing them down. I was able to win after like 3 turns which I find funny considering some of the comments of people getting stuck after multiple tries. Nice entry for GMTK!
Thanks for your feedback to tutorial and we are glad you enjoyed the game!
I loved the background music and the occasional crow sound!
'caw, caw'
Glad you like it 😊
the game is beautiful! but unfortunately I can not play the size of the menus even in full screen is not suitable ... it's a shame ... ;(
Hi, we are sorry for the bad experience. But we figured out it's about the scale settings in the Windows screen settings. It only works nice if 100% scale is set. The others are not working well.
We would be glad if you give it a another try and enjoy the game!
Hi! okay I would like a new version so I can still test your game after the jam :)
Fun game I really liked it
Thank you! We did our best during the weekend and it wasn't easy for us.
Cool visuals and an interesting concept. SFX were nice too.
Thanks for your feedback! We are glad you enjoyed our game.
Thank you sir!
So much fun! Concept is super cool!
Thank you a lot.
Really enjoyed the concept and the art style.
Only issue was in about 20 minutes I only drew 3 cards that reduced potion making.
Thank you. Yeah there might be some problems with player cards. Not enough time :D
