Fun! Your next attacks shoots bombs + regenerate your energy to full + shoot 4 bullets x times is a bit too powerful. The cards that don't cost energy are just very strong in general because you redraw immediately.

I don't love the cooldown system. Having to wait to play cards feels bad. I'm not sure that cooldowns are even necessary when you already have to wait to restore your energy. Feels like you could remove energy or remove cooldowns and the game would be more fun.

Those are not cooldowns, that is you restoring energy! If you look at the top right, you will see a number of dots, and that is how much the cards cost. If you don't have enough energy, you have to wait until you do. Hence the restore energy card.

oh that makes a lot more sense. i understood how energy works, i just thought there was also a cooldown mechanic happening.

seems like it would be better to just have that radial energy restoration display over your energy tracker, rather than on each individual card. as it exists now, it's a very confusing ui

Hm, I find it quite intuitive, vs. having to look back and forth between the energy tracker and the energy cost of all four cards in real time which sounds unnecessarily difficult. But interesting to hear another take on it. The ui is still a work in progress.
