  • This is a really compelling card game, I like the idea of exploring a 3D world mixed with the cards. However, I cannot find a reference to the alchemy portion of the theme, even in your GDD. But I did really enjoy the use of shadow puppetry to indicate was card was being played.

This is a cool concept for a deck builder game. I liked the way the game moves through the mushrooms and the way you pick different paths. Fun use of shadow puppets too!

Really unique idea with shadow puppet combat, nice! The gnome making the shapes with his hands was hilarious as well!

Very good base for a deck builder.  I love the theme and the goofy sound effects.  The upgrade menu was really neat.  Great job!

I liked card games, really cool us of the mechanics. Brought back the feels from Yu-Gi-Oh for some reasons. If you are still going to work on it, can't wait to see what you will do with that!

Look forward to a steam release ;)

Very clever using shadow puppets! And using this type of camera in a card game made me feel more immersed with my gnome. I will be gnoming my chums. Lovely game!
