I loved how systemic the game feels. Had fun crunching the numbers. Solid entry, good job!

I posted on your itch.io page, but here is some feedback: * This is surprisingly quite a lot of fun * Training does not take the 10g it's supposed to * Fast-tracking text often makes me click on some option, which is kinda annoying

@eldar Hi eldar, thanks for your playing and feedbacks! The gold issue and button issue has been fixed now. I'm gald that you think it's fun.

Very solid game! The UI is clean, dragons have graphical variety and the system feels robust. I especially liked the talking sound. I think music and some sounds would add a lot to the game.

No towns ruined. My tactic was to pump up offense - and it worked! I think the poor dragons need a buff. I barely took any damage.

Really good work. The talking sound is fun, I'd have given score for audio if you allowed.

Sometimes had issues with not being able to click the dragon while I received damage. That was the only issue I had, other than that, cool concept!

Cool game! I fun playing it. Unfortunately after a while it got too easy to defeat the dragons.

I liked the text sounds a lot and didn't run into any bugs or issues. I went from too weak to fight the dragons to way to strong to lose to the dragons really fast though. Cool looking dragons!

Like many others have said, it gets easy pretty quickly. I also didn't even bother training anything other than strength and just fought dragons over and over again without doing anything else, since that is what got gold way quicker than working. Just fight dragons and occasionally smith. It also eliminates the entire stamina loop.

Also, I wasn't sure if it was ever going to end. Maybe a deadline of a final dragon or something?

Also, you typed DRADON EMERGENCY instead of DRAGON EMERGENCY :)

I liked the main loop though. I wish there were some more interactions between all the different elements. Maybe rebalance it?

I am very jealous of your speech blip sound effect. I'd be really interested in seeing a write-up in a blog post about how you managed to make it sound so good.

I'm not a big fan of clickers in general, so I didn't stick with it for long enough to actually kill one of the dragons. But the animations were very smooth and the whole thing felt very polished. Good job!

The gameplay loop got easy quite quickly, which is just a matter of balance, and I accidently clicked on a few options sometimes and wasn't sure if they actually went through or if I lost a day or not. That being said, this is pretty fun! I liked the variety, it was simple, easy to figure out(I immediately knew how to play and what to do). Good job!

This game was super fun, and with some more content could definitely be a fun full release

eugenik 2020-10-07 04:14

Enjoyed the story and atmosphere!

jamster 2020-10-07 10:45

Why did I keep playing so long after it was easy? Lol, the game is hilarious and sneaky fun

orange-oceans 2020-10-07 16:09

Such a simple and nice game!! I almost ended up playing more and more, even having other things to do!!

ltyrosine 2020-10-09 20:36

Fun little game. Trained only ATK and smith only weapon, beat dragons like flies 😁

Why I have to work if I will fight a **dragon** for the city in few days??? 😁

Nice work!

Little relaxing game, I like shock intro by 1st dragon and then you have 2 weeks to grow stronger, but after that it become too easy, I'm not sure if DEF or HP mattered at all, may be make Dragons progress on exponential curve or something. Overall, very cute game.

zjones 2020-10-19 19:42

Ilike the concept i think this can be a fun type of rpg if more combat elemtn wher enixed in. ITs very easy to beat the dragons if you put everythign into attack i like the time managment concept . Overalli storng game that can be a great concept i defentitly would recommend expanding this

dane-tesla 2020-10-25 12:20

Good one! Very relaxing and calm with bursts of rapid clicking in-between xD It was super cool! Tho As many people mentioned, it gets really easy if you train attack and weapon only.
