Wow thank you so much for your thorough depiction of your experience with our game :D
I agree - the icon design wasn’t well executed, and having made those icons myself I can say it was my failing alone.
That being said, I do think if I were to remake this at a higher resolution, the icons would be greatly improved by that alone.
Excuses aside I think the system worked out well and felt fun and compelling, I’d love to explore this mechanic more in the future to see how it can be improved and refined.
Thank you again for playing the game, and for your thoughtful feedback :D
