Thanks for playing! You are 100% correct about the balancing of the game being off, that's something I wish I could have spent more time on. Hero groups with all mages can easily wipe out a whole party and most groups of 4 (on hard) will destroy you, unless you can stop them from attacking. I had planned for the teams to alternate attacking but never got around to it within the jam time. As you mentioned, the mana is also not super clear so I'll add a small description of how that works to the page so people don't have to play guesswork. Regardless, I appreciate the kinds words and commend you on finishing your own jam entry ^_^
