Okay it took me about 10 minutes to understand the UI but when i did i had a fab time! Really dig this interpretation of the theme, especially the combination of shop and dungeon crawler. Loved all the different icons for magical artifacts youre stealing too 💪

the art style is nice but the UI is a little buggy (the reset button after you lose don't work for me) and I would've liked a tutorial at the start but its expected in gamejam games.

the turn based movement was good but maybe next time if you're doing it make it a little quicker

Lofi with retro console graphics is a great aesthetic!  For the UI scaling issues, you might be able to fix it (without violating gamejam rules) by going into the Edit Game tab under your dashboard and turning on "Full Screen Button" and "Allow Scroll Tabs."  One of those may help.  If that doesn't, try increasing and decreasing the window size to see if it will force the UI.

I think the GUI is scaling incorrectly, but I could still play. Very innovative concept. I would love to see how you update it!

thanks ! yes the GUI is quite bugged :(

I can't understand how to play. Maybe the interface is bugged but I can't for the love of god understand what I should be doing.

hi, i understand that the game might be confusing. here are some clues : on the left you have to move the little black and red character (the thief) and mange to collect objects avoiding the wizards. in the right top corner it's the shop, you click on the client to see what they are looking for, if you have already collected it, you can sell it by clicking on the item in the inventory in the middle. Hope it's a bit more clear now :)
