  • Artistic style is very cool. Interesting idea to combine animal crossing with boss fights. was unable to cast spells, took a long time to figure out that I had to hold E to dig up resources. Theme wasn't prevalent enough for this game jam.

Cool concept, I like the idea of gathering ingredients at night and then fighting during the day, but I struggled to understand how to interact with the game to really have fun. I seem like you have to draw runes ? But it was really hard cause my cursor didn't line up with where it was drawing. Also when I did draw the shape it didn't seem to have any result, bit of a shame cause I'm sure if I could understand that part the game could be quite fun. Congrats on finishing your game, it does look quite good visually and perhaps some other players will understand it better then I did. Good job overall!
