Interesting mechanic. I know it's a game jam but a clear tutorial would help clear things up a bit, especially for those who don't play a lot of card games. The audio and music is pretty good

I liked spawning things with cards. I focused to just do that on home base and to buy booster packs.
The game was a bit too complicated for me to succeed. But I really liked two things: The "fighting mini game", as it adds some action to the game. And second, I find the art-style of the cards really charming!
I'm not sure what to do, but I like the animations and art graphics! Card games can get too complicated for me. I like it though
I really like the concept of this, but there were a bunch of small things that kept me from having as much fun as I might have.
1. I didn't like having to do the weird clicking each time I wanted a booster. 2. Having fights off screen that I couldn't see/wasn't notified of just felt bad. (I didn't love the input mechanic either, but it felt bad to not even know if my dudes were getting clocked.) 3. I really disliked how I had to click outside the summon circle with shuffle. I felt like if I clicked it at all, it should have just shuffled immediately.
Wish you could see the whole game area without scrolling (there were already enough other things to keep track of) but fun concept!
