Its very fun for what it is, with a little polish and graphical enhancement this could make a very solid game as it has a lot of potential for expansion, like imagine adding a story for example. like i said many possibilities.
But my experience did come to a halt after fighting a battle in which neither sides could kill the other. So one suggestion from me is to maybe make the "give up" option more forgivable, like a debuff and not a full "back to square one" type deal.
But other than that, very noice.
I could easily see this becoming really popular! I love games like this where you can raise and collect (and, in this case, merge) little creatures.
I also LOVE this dark fantasy pixel art style you decided to use. While a lot of those kinda games are more cutesy and inspired by Pokémon / Tamagotchi, this game is more unique with it's art style and also a more grim story.
It's giving a mix of Darkest Dungeon and the lesser known Monster Girl Manager.
I agree with yonodusk that it would make for a fun mobile game. Idle games are also a "guilty pleasure" of mine, not just on mobile but just also in another window on my Laptop while I'm doing something else, so I'd say I'm in the target audience for stuff like this :D
All in all, I see potential. The game would need more polish, though. Just like yonodusk I also couldn't figure out the spells and sometimes the fights get stuck in endless loops. I'd look forward to play this more once it has more content though!
Thank you very much for your comment! I am very glad that you liked my idea, I am pleased to receive such a nice feedback!
Maybe in the future I'll take the development of this game seriously!
I tried using spells but clicking them doesnt (visually) do anything, unsure if they are put into effect.
This a fun little game! It's a bit of a clicker? game. I like the aspect of having multiple creatures, theres some balance issues but as a game jam it's not the focus
I don't like I lost all my progress by clicking giving up. I feel like if the unit had lowered stats it would be nice, but I lost a unit that had considerable stats and some skills and I didn't want to play anymore
Overall I like it! Could be really fun mobile game
Thank you for your feedback, I am very glad that you liked my game.
Well, the bastard inside me wanted to destroy the chimera in the event that you decide to give up. Maybe I shouldn't have listened to him :)
