I love the sprites, very cute! After a while enemies stopped appearing and I wasn't sure what to do. Nice concept and game!
I got 15 out of 20 units inside and the waves stopped coming. I guess that means I win? I like the upbeat music in this game. It was fun casting spells and protecting the castle. One suggestion for improving the game is to increase the frequency of the monster waves. Also, tool tips for the spells would help. Overall, a fun game.
@sillyman987 @shores @gamebuilder we fixed our first version of the game, now it works properly :)
very nice art and cool sound effects. Pretty solid entry.
Cool little game, sometimes it was hard to get the info about the spells, it would just flash on screen.
The graphic works well with your game and music! Bravo! Sometimes enemies stop at the last line and not disapear.
one of the problems is that mouse hover hints don't seem to work correctly - sometimes they just blink, sometimes no matter how slow i move the cursor to check the unit or wait the hint won't get shown. the concept seems nice, but the execution is a bit chaotic, due to usually missing hints. I did manage on third attempt to get the demons to occupy the castle.
Note - play and rate some games, guys, don't be surprised you have only few rates - you still have some time to move up in the list for people doing last attempt to save games from the danger zone
Interesting little puzzle game! One bug I noticed is that when I moved my cursor even just a little when hovering over something, the info window disappeared, so I had to move off of the sprites and back on to see it again.
This is a really interesting idea! I like the way the different creatures interact with each other. Just wanted to echo @stanroy's comment that sometimes spell descriptions didn't pop up correctly. Otherwise, very enjoyable!
A cute little game ! I liked burning and freezing creatures !
Wow, cool idea and gameplay. Also nice artwork
Nice entry! Loved the music and the art. The whole idea was nice as well, fits the theme nicely. Only issue I had was that sometimes dialogue boxes were not appearing when I hovered over enemy or spell. Overall, great job! :thumbsup:
Game is amazing.
Element stuff is insane and I wish there were more space to experiment with these spells and combinations, but I know that jams are hard. Hope you will continue developing this mechanic.
Music gives strong tetris vibes, I like it.
Overall - interesting ideas, fun game. Good luck!
***A really nice game with fun mechanics and fittings SFXs***
The only issue is the **lack of unicity** in the monsters: _with the only exception being the vampire_, the monsters type or race don't really matter at all, they're pretty much the same; the vampire instead makes you think twice, his """"""passive"""""" makes him unique
Maybe some post-jam updates with **skill trees**, different **maps** which change the grid and add permanent objects ( for example an hell map with volcanos that erupt and burn near enemies ) and some sort of **campaign gamemode** to make the game much longer
The game is really good and ,with some polishing and a huge update, could become a great commercial game
Keep the good work up!
This is a really interesting game idea. The graphics are pretty cute, but I did have some issues with the UI staying in place. It kept flickering and hiding, so it was hard to tell what each item did.
Fairly well done, I had fun playing it even though I lost horribly to the monsters haha
This was a pretty fun little game. I like the graphics and music a lot, and the ending screens were a nice touch.
There's an issue with displaying text as others have noted, and I also saw this rare bug where an undead moved onto another character's space (upper left corner):
two characters one space.PNG
Not a real big deal, but I thought you might want to know in case you do a post-jam version with bug fixes. Overall great job, and I hope you can get enough ratings before the deadline!
Really fun and easy to learn as I played. I feel like it combines match-3 mechanics with auto-chess. I love that all the monsters fight each other. Great game!
Oh, I love this one! The art style is super nice, the music is awesome, the sound effect are funny, and the game mechanics are pure fun! I got all 4 endings! Great game! I wish there was more :)
I liked the different endings a lot! Also the SFX are pretty good. I first though no enemy should reach the castle but after a while I tried to figure out what party will have what effect. I enjoyed it a lot :D
Very nice strategy game! Love the different effect of each spell forcing you to adapt depending on the spell available! Excellent graphics and sounds. Great entry!
Really interesting game ! I had fun to play. I liked the possibility of choosing a race and saving it. skills are quite varied, there is strategy in how to save people. Really cool ! (please help us to get 20 rating too :D) Keep it up ! ;)
Super nice! I've try to save the three races on different games. Fun!
