You received lots of constructive criticism on the mechanics already, therefore I will refrain from repeating any of it, simplification and tutorialization will do the game very well. Otherwise, as an artist, I adore the limited color palette you went for and how the player contrasts the enemies so clearly! Great animations and the UI has lots of potential. I can see it as a turn-based game tbh! Maybe not enough spinning for this jam. The UI seemed to be bugging or falsely positioned at times, just as a heads up. Great job!

What a creative take. First off: i LOVE the tutorialization. The writing isn’t overwhelming at all, everything feels digestible! The UI was mentioned by somebody else, it truly feels like..a little LSD trip in the best way possible. I adore the art and claymation, how in the world did you import that?? My god that must have been a hassle with the time crunch of the deadline. Really admirable work, I adore what you made! In connection to the jam i would have loved more spinning 

Adore the concept of your game! Personally, I found the wheel stopping to be a little unpredictable, so indicating it more clearly would have me use it far better hahah! As an artist that is what I will comment on in most detail: I love that you incorporateed a sea theme, and I must say it was the clever title that made me want to play the game! The art is lovely, UI a bit old school in style but it fits the pirate game aesthetic! A little window listening the level of hit (from safe to critical hit)  could be very useful, and maybe have more mercy on players by making the green parts easier to get to hahah! I must say I wasnt quite sure how to "attack" the bosses, per say, but I knew how to survive for...a couple of minutes. Really cool game concept, it could benefit from more tutorialization, but overall I hope that you are proud of what you accomplished! Great job!

Wow what unique mechanics! I agree with most all feedback which you have already received, mainly the health of the player and speed of movement. If you take your time to come up with a proper story for immersion and flesh out the mechanics, I can absolutely see this turn into a long-term project. Again, really unique, and the timeframe is crazy!! Great work, truly. P.S.: adding settings for volume would be a great addition heheh

Ahahah how cute!! Loved the intro and the UI would be ideal for a mobile game! As an enjoyer of turn based games I did understand the mechanics, though its clear that everything is still in the works. The score when i died was not accurate, maybe a preset text? I adore the concept! The boss designs could be made more powerful/interesting story-wise for immersion, and if you find the time to add morre hero characters I can absolutely see the game do great! Don’t let go of this project!!

Great game!! I must admit that I was not entirely able to understand the connection of the slot machine to the boss rush, but I adore the art and animation sooo much! The plot is lovely and environment top notch as well! I would adore if you made the tutorial less text based but more guide based, for example the wheel host pointing at what you have to click and explaining with a chatbox! Really cool atmosphere, a couple of cutscenes could do great as well!!

Great art! As an artist, that is usually the main thing I keep my eye on, and I like how you executed the idea! When talking about gameplay, the music didnt loop for me, unfortunately. And i shall give the very common advice of tutorialization, even if just through an entrance level with a dummy. A death screen would also be great, maybe multiple lives? But that is a purely subjective preference. Great work for that very short amount of time!

Watched swagshaw play your game and now after playing it myself i adore it even more. Im way too much of a cozy gamer to win the game, but god do I love the artistic direction you went for. peak.

Absolutely adore the art of the game! The mechanics make precise shooting a little difficult for the first boss, but I adore it nonetheless. Well done! Some more music and immersion elements could really boost the experience, alongside fixing the sprite scaling situation ofc

sweet style, artistically! some more story elements would be beneficial, alongside different attack types! the environment could potentially reflect the boss a little more clear. Just a couple of suggestions. Great job!

I clicked on the game because the art of it definitely caught my eye! It seems that in the web version, some radial attacks cause everything to lag significantly, which is so sad bcuz I would’ve loved to keep playing!! you absolutely incorporated spin into your game. I feel your game could benefit a ton from more story elements and tutorialization if you want to refine it in the future. Well done!

I don’t appreciate copying existing games for competitions, but I assume you chose to do that with comedic intent. It took me a bit to understand the boss fight as my brain was stuck in balatro mode, an association disadvantage for sure! With bigger boss designs, the card game/fight concept can absolutely carry potential

Hiyya! Unfortunately I wasnt quite able to understand the mechanics due to the lack of tutorialization but I see you had an arena card fight concept in mind, which absolutely has potential if you were to want to develop it further. Curious to see where your journey leads you!
