I don't know whether you check my game page or not but yeah I didn't make tutorial because the time limit is pretty tight, my game has like 16 skills if we total them all its actually 46 (if we included style moves as well) making tutorial about them are likely took a week and again I don't have the time, I even missed one boss.

But of course I aware about that and leave a guide or instructions on the game page about how to distribute the stats, explaining all skills description, game mechanics like special attacks, Crystal Support, and many more, I actually planned to put these too in the game folder in case someone missed it but the upload is already locked.

Anyway thanks for giving my game a try!

As for the tips, if you felt like the first boss movement speed is too fast then try to use Earthquake skill, it will messed the field but it's also slowing the boss down, and look for the Crystal as it can heal your HP/MP or provide buff, they randomly appears on the field but does not vanish until you get them, they also reappear in like around 10 second(you will hear a sparkling SFX whenever they appear), it's sounds cowardly but feel free to stalling when you're in a pinch.

For the second boss... Freezing her with IceDozer work wonder but she sometimes can counter IceDozer so I suggest to build up Stylish Meter to Savage and spam her with Ice Fang(Special Version of IceDozer), the freezing time increases due to a location and weather being either snow or snowstorm but of course your freezing time is also increases so avoid or parry her Ice Lances otherwise you will be the one going down.

Once you beat the 1st and 2nd you are already a skilled so there's no tips for 3rd and the last boss.

So I've given it a second go, and all I can say is its too complex for a jam game.

I won't say being complex is bad, only in this case it feels like I'm going against what's meant to be end game level bosses as a level 1 player. And I'm not talking stats. Ok yes, first time I played I didn't even know I was meant to use the stat stones and would constantly die in 1-2 hits. 

But even with better stats I don't 'understand' when or how to use my skills and my fingers are simply fumbling to hit the right keys at the right time. Its a simply a skill issue, or lack of skill to be more precise.

I won't say its a bad game now that I have a better understanding of what you were going for; but I will say it has a very steep learning curve that would better suit a longer more narrative driven game that gradually eases you in, slowly introducing new skills and mechanics as the game goes.

That's fine, this is my first jam, I never joined one before because most of them only last like 3~7 days which is impossible for me to compile the running prototype.

With zero experience obviously I don't even know what I'm doing and give it a go when I saw this jam last for month.

Anyway thanks for the feedback, I'll use it for the future reference.

For your first jam it is a good attempt and I can tell you put a lot of effort into it. Everything is a learning experience and we learn best from our mistakes.

This is my 10th or so jam and I'm still learning things from mistakes and oversights of my own.

You've got to start somewhere.
