  • Hi there, thank you for participating in our jam! Since the game isn't downloadable, I'll just be going based off the description. I have a few questions about the gameplay, such as what is the point of choosing a copycat when the mimic affects its stats? Do copycats start out with different stats or moves, like if two different copycats pick the same mimic, how will the stats and moves be affected? Or do different copycats have different mimics to choose from? Or does it just change what they look like? Is there a point to the low attack if players are just going to spam high attack until their PP runs out? And why would the player ever want to skip their turn? The UI on the selection screen is a little bit non-intuitive. Is there a reason for the extra "Add" button on top of the "Done" button? You could just have it so the player clicks on the character, then the mimic, and then have them press the "Done" button. I think the concept is interesting, but maybe not very replayable as a 2-person game. I think the "cut arcade mode" would be more fun, especially if further fleshed out.

Hello! Sorry about not including the game, I thought I included it.  Anyway for the questions, I have been working on the game after the jam is over so some stuff may not be accurate to the game description. The Copycats have there own stats and the mimics change the stats based on it.  BB Players can multiply the strength of  a character. Clouds are quite slow so it would decrease the speed of a character. The moves depend on the mimics, the copycats don't have their own moves. Copycats can become any mimic. To have good stats you have to choose the right combination. Each copycat appearance of the mimic is different. The low attack is just an option if you don't want to use PP since the specials take up lots of PP. I am not sure if I answered that question correctly.  Skipping a turn is needed in case you can't attack the opponents. Though now that you brought it up, I might just remove it. It's more helpful to just defend. It was really only helpful for testing. The add button adds a character and mimic once you select them. Selecting Done is when you finish selecting your team members. I am currently adding a computer player and the arcade mode so it won't be just a two player game.
