Amazing submission! Seriously, this is so good! Really unique and clever and fun, and the artstyle and color palette are great!

the game is really fun and I absolutely loved the art style! very well done

This is actually super fun concept. Building process was super, while bit hard to initially fully grasp how all the stats will work in, it was just exiting to see the result for whatever twist of nature you created. And the actual battle part was great too. My first playthrough was a travesty, none of my monsters could basically attack or died from one hit, but that is on me for being a bad builder, but it was comedic to realize how cruel an existence for some monsters can be. Second time went better. The only thing I wished was little clearer indicators of how many things you can do in your turn, whose turn its going to be next and things like that, but I'd not say those hindered my experience. After all, I didn't mind just messing about when the graphics and music was so good. So great work here!  

Quite a unique and engaging experience! The monster composition is a bit rough, but once you see it in practice, it makes some sense. There are some elements here that I really, really love, like the speed-based initiative system, and the small board, but other parts of this are kinda rough, and it's likely a product of the very condensed development period. That monsters can't "flip" to face backwards is one of them. I had one monster who just became useless at a certain point because he was too deep into the map to hit anyone. As well, HP and Dam are significantly more powerful than speed, which results in some strange losses in utility for "fast" monsters. The music jams though, and the sfx all feel appropriate, if a little lacking in diversity. The art style is also great. It'll be sweet to see more parts and levels added to the game in the future, as well as more tracks to the OST and might I suggest unlockable shaders that will totally alter the color pallete? Just a thought. Anyway, I thought this was great! Excited to see what you come up with next!

OHHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD, I LOVE THIS GAME... ITS SO AWESOME... I LOVE THAT IT ALLOWS ME TO GENERATE MONSTER...

its weird that i love this kind of games even though... ya know... its  abit messed up!
but i really love this kind of games... 
its TURNBASED, ALLOWS ME TO FUSE MONSTER..
CHEF KISS!
Would play again!

Really enjoyed the visuals of the game as well as the gameplay itself. The core loop is really solid and could be a really fun concept to expand upon. Really liked it.

The graphics are excellent and colour scheme reminded me of 1950's comic books. Audio is good. Building monsters was simple and fun. Battling is fun too. Very well made game!

The presentation for this game is really nice. I really liked the monster building system. Lots of options even to start, and the assembled monsters with there parts were really well made! I did like the semi-chess-esk movement and attack style of the battles, though, I think I encountered a bug where one of my monsters had both a -3 attack and -3 movement and was effectively useless, but when I looked at that monster again in the monster editor, their stats were much higher.

Over all, solid game! Very nicely done! If you’re interested, here’s a link to my stream of the game to terrify you this Halloween season!.

I really like the many different options you have as a player, the idea of creating monsters and let them battle is very well implemented here

This is a really good concept which resulted in a unique game - and the aesthetics are perfect for this time of year. While I also had a hard time with the controls at first, it didn't take too long to figure it out. It's very impressive how much you were able to develop in a week. 

Impressive visuals and overall vibe. For me the controls were very frustrating, a lot of times I could not understand what I am looking at. It was hard for me to enjoy this otherwise beautiful game. 

Props for doing something so ambitious in a week, but it needs a lot of playtesting. I loved the creature designs and the music, congrats for the team!

A good concept executed very well! The animation is great and it is impressive that you had so many parts for the time allotted.

Really enjoyable! I love strategy games and this one is no exception. Very cool design and gameplay overall.

this game is crazy developed for a one week jam. the art itself with animation and the different bodyparts in different positions, I can't even imagine how much work was put into this. congratulations, this is truly an outstanding game from this jam

I think the character creation tool is a genius idea and it was fun to see my monstrosities in action! The graphics are also top-notch *clap* 

I know it's a game jam game and there's not enough time to polish everything, but if you decide to develop it further, some floating damage text and sound effects for the attacks could enhance the experience! A sound effect and text to tell whose turn it is could also be nice! :)

For me, the music felt a bit too intense for the game's feel, but of course, that comes down to taste.

Overall, great job;  you got a lot done in a week!

Huge props to the artist(s?) behind this game! The aesthetics are fantastic! I'm a fan of the turn based gameplay and I think it's a really cool idea to Frankenstein together a team of monsters and how that affects their stats, movement and attack options. Really impressed with this game and I love how it captured that spooky cute vibe (a personal favorite aesthetic)

I was a little confused by parts of the UI, which I read in a different comment was one of the last things added, so I understand it's not going to be perfect :) but here's where I got caught up in case you plan on updating things after the jam:
so after I placed all the parts, I wasn't sure if the create button would solidify my creation or create a random monster. And then once it was created and the monster icon was above the create button, I didn't know if I should leave it there or drag it to the bottom. I also wasn't aware I needed 3 monsters until going to the next screen and had to go back, so perhaps prevent the player from leaving the monster creation screen until they have the minimum and ideally make it more clear, such as making the first 3 monster boxes a different color etc.

As for actual gameplay, I think the addition of VFX for hitting enemies would go a long way. I wasn't sure if missing attacks was a thing, so I kept checking enemy health to see if I hit and actually dealt damage. I think what speed does could be clarified a bit, I assume it's initiative but it could be accuracy?

All in all pretty fun experience and I hope your team continues working on this because I see a lot of potential :)

I was a bit surprised once I launched the game, didn't expect this. Real fun and the aesthetics are incredible.

A small thing: Somehow on the borders of the screen, the grain effect is like a little bit more intense depending on the color is behind. It cause me a little of motion sickness sometimes. No big deal but just a small info since the art is top notch!

Really enjoyed it - a super novel submission and great aesthetics!! (And sound/music!) 

Really cool I didn't expect to see a turn based battler on the ScreamJam. I love it, the aesthetics were topnotch and the multiple parts gave so much replayability 

Really cool, unsettling atmosphere! The mechanics are interesting, though it takes a while to understand them. The instructions were hard to read because of the blur and dark edges.
