Liked the idea, but it feels kinda unfinished (as usual for game jams). Nice art!

While not really a bad game, I feel it was too short and broken to reach it's full potential. There's only one level and the fact that you can make unlimited transformations until you get the strongest cards removes any challenge.
It's a cool concept and I'd love to see it expanded upon.
I enjoyed the concept :) sadly there is only one enemy and it's done :( need more
Cool game, however there is too little content/variation for the game to reach its potential.
There was a good idea here, but it was too limited to be any fun. Different enemies and levels, and different abilities to counter and defend against, and you could turn this into something good. Graphics were simplistic, but nice.
Overall I liked this entry. Although I felt there was really very little here even for a compo.
Conceptually, I think something like this could make for a fun game if it was finished.
Like everybody before me, my only complaint is lack of content. The music and art are good, it's just missing more enemies and transformations to make it feel more complete. Good work otherwise.
The game is a little bit short.
Cool idea but too short
While being a very great idea, the game was sadly too short. I hope you get to work more on it.
Cool idea :)
Doesn't want to start. The screen appears for a short moment, then closes without showing any messages. My specs are: Windows 8.1, JRE 8 update 91, G3258 CPU, GTX 750 GFX.

Could you, please, try to launch the game from the command line and post the output it gives? You can do that by opening command line, moving to the directory with the game and executing "java -jar MorphBrawl.jar" command.
Short, but I liked the concept!
Not bad but REALLY short!
The idea is really great.
I love the idea but it was way too easy to beat the enemy. It seems as if I don't have to think much to win. Still, a pretty good idea and could make a good game when polished.
Unforunately the game does not start. Running on OS/X

@thunderklaus
Thanks for the information, but unfortunately I'm not sure how can I fix that. Though I'll try to get my hands on OS/X and experiment a bit
As others have said, too short :( I wanted to play more though so that says something!
Cool game, a bit short though.
The mechanic is really simple but can have a lot of depth if it's explored further.
You should really add some more enemies and maybe some more cards to the game :)
Pretty cool. You have a nice battle system set up, however as long as you're not stuck with just human form you're gonna win always, and you could just keep turning down cards to get a card that was the strongest
