Hi Belbeeno!
Thanks for playing, and passing along this encouraging feedback! As a fan of deckbuilders, I'm glad to hear the game landed for you!
We're super keen to keep working on the concept post-jam. We're excited to improve and build on the systems that we've got set up, and would love to explore some of the ideas that we had to shelve because of time-constraints during the jam.
You'll be happy to hear that we had some awesome concepts for branching paths during exploration, and a progression system that would extend across runs. Our original concept was to have a third deck in the mix; one that would be persistent across runs, and would draw a selection of cards that would represent a base build for your character on each run. We landed up shelving this character deck so we could focus on the combat and exploration decks, but would love to explore the idea in the future. Would be cool right?
Thanks again for playing, and for the encouraging comments!
