Monster Madness

I'm getting jealous of great artworks of Jam games... Is it for android (since it's a jar). Again, the graphics is really cool. Board game has some learning curves. To make the battle scheme works more interesting, I thought about https://mekagem.itch.io/regxkcd . Might be helpful for expanding the battle logic.

Wow this was really cool! There's some nice strategy and depth to the game, but also still easily approachable and fun! Graphics and music are nice. Great job, well done! :)

Very nice card art! Are these handdrawn?

Nice artwork and listenable music. From perspective of game design, it lacks some deeper mechanics -- it's just too simple and too random (as it really depends on which card player gets). But all in all, good job.

@shrekshao: Oooh, you just completely ruined my Ludum Dare reviewing with that xkcd-inspired game... Thank You!

Very nice idea! Follows the theme very well. There's a lot of potential for depth here, although the mechanics aren't fully explored. The artwork and music is also very nice.

This is a totally under-reviewed game. After I actually took the time to read the instructions and understand it, it became a quite cool experience.

Good job on the mechanics and the awesome graphics!

This is really clever! I didn't get what was happening in my first game, but then I remembered the theme, and so I realised that stacking monsters is bad! I'd been stacking my own monsters, and wondering why they were all bad. Really enjoyed the second game, though. The card art is nice!

Hi @wakka2 ! I put these together in Adobe Illustrator :)

Took me a little bit to fully understand the mechanics but I dig it. I play a few card games but I haven't seen that stacking mechanic before. Fun game.
