I like the card game idea and the graphics looks good! Great works!

guadalupe-murgo 2024-10-07 16:40

I loved the music and the sound effects in the battles, the menu also looked very nice. you did a very good job! :)

arkatme 2024-10-07 16:41

Is this using AI art? It looks like AI art.

tsukigan 2024-10-07 16:50

I like sound. But i dont know what card i should play to win fight. Would like to see card stats and abilities before i start drag them

qiqiqi 2024-10-07 16:56

Like it! simple but fun strategy

kenjimarcio 2024-10-07 17:19

So cool man! It's always great to find card games in a JAM. I can imagine this game in the future with other decks and new strategies using the effects of the cards. Really cool!

dzejpi 2024-10-07 18:28

Beautiful art! Took me few tries to figured out how to stack cards, but once I did, it was quite fun! I love the sounds, it's obvious that they too were made by mouth, like in my case, haha. Well done, nice game!

ulysselenglen 2024-10-07 21:10

I liked playing, pretty challenging, could not quit till i won vs the AI !

cyphix 2024-10-07 22:18

Very polished and complete package. Definitely a good start to an ongoing project potential here.

helloworldnoob 2024-10-07 22:56

the game is like slay the spire wrapped in tiny creatures

dywanix 2024-10-08 00:19

I really like artstyle and gameplay. Lovely card game!

stormburpee 2024-10-08 00:21

Thanks everyone for your great feedback so far! Much appreciate all the lovely comments, thanks guys <3 I've gone through and tried out all your games too, and left some feedback and ratings, you guys have smashed it.

Cool, really like this game.It took me a while to figure out how to play, but it was worth it

kivade 2024-10-08 01:31

The sound effects made me giggle and the concept seems super addicting. Can't wait to see more of it in the future. Will be sharing with my brother who loves virtual card games.

daminator4113 2024-10-08 01:58

Really cool card game (I'm not very good at this kind of game ๐Ÿ˜…), the sound and visual effects were fun :D

cookieh 2024-10-08 06:43

Very fun game. Though was hard in the beginning, especially since its hard to read what cards do, maybe having a bigger zoom on a card would help. But still ended up playing a few rounds to try and get more wins

sviborg 2024-10-08 08:16

This is a really cool card game! ๐ŸŽฎ The graphics look amazing and the sound effects add to the atmosphere. The mechanics of the cards were a bit hard to figure out at first, but once I did, the game was really fun. I wish there was an option to see the details of the cards before playing. Great work for the jam and it will be interesting to see how the project develops! ๐Ÿ‘

prussichger 2024-10-08 14:42

This could actually make for an interesting game! I didn't watch the tutorial, but I understood everything during the game itself

kirass 2024-10-08 17:33

Cool idea! Super!

grut607 2024-10-09 00:09

Pretty cool, I liked it. I really liked both the visual part and the mechanics.

leo-leo 2024-10-09 02:09

Nice game! Like that we can try to build combo over more round, I would have liked to see more of that, with maybe the enemies doing the same. The art is nice and fit well, the audio is funny too. Only complain is that it is a bit hard to read the effects on the card (also the full screen and tool tip on placed units did not work for me).

jake-g 2024-10-09 06:01

I had a lot of fun with this game! The card mechanics were straightforward and not convoluted. It left me wishing for more levels after it ended. Nice work!

runningopenloop 2024-10-09 07:18

Good game little. Great art. Enjoyed as the game as a board gamer. However it was difficult to know what the powers of the card I was playing being new to the game... If I put someone in line, then I could read the power on mouse-over, but then couldn't retract the card. Also, improved ability to order my attackers. Once I filled up all attackers, then I couldn't move them around at all.

mrmaico 2024-10-09 14:10

I have played a lot of Super Auto Pets so I did not need a tutorial. Really enjoyed this entry. I played it twice. Never won the first round though. :D

martingonn 2024-10-10 04:58

Very fun! I didnโ€™t need to do the tutorial. Great music, characters and graphics!

googlefrog 2024-10-10 05:13

Fun game. I skipped the tutorial then played a few rounds to try out different things. Keeping your living army from round to round is weird, but works pretty well. The music and sound effects are great (ant). I think there might have been a bug with on-death effects not triggering.

manabreak 2024-10-10 06:27

Like others said, fun little game! It's surprisingly tugh, I didn't beat any rounds :)

the-quinnzite-mushroom 2024-10-10 06:32

It's really fun. I managed to win once, the best combo seems to be using a queen ant and other ants. I would love to play a fully finished version of this game.

loreshka 2024-10-10 07:27

very cool and funny game!!!

magicstunts123 2024-10-10 07:32

Really funny game! The artwork is great and i love the card mechanics!

esstormmoonly 2024-10-10 07:34

I love the card design. But I need to pull the card out to know how cards work.

damien-black 2024-10-10 07:37

Awesome. Well executed. I love the sound effects. Art is suuuper cute. I'm sad to say that I can't read the text at all. Is there a wat to select a card or zoom in that I'm missing?

dan-nik-sg 2024-10-10 07:41

It is fun to play, beautiful visuals, some special mechanics for the creatures which is cool as well. Nice effort for making it alone!!

an405 2024-10-10 09:26

Soo cute!! Feels complete, i love it

joshua-reumann 2024-10-10 09:32

Really nice game art and audio and gameplay. I enjoyed it and it feels pretty complete for a jam game good job ;)

iaroslavik 2024-10-10 10:01

Nice, I really like it ๐Ÿ˜Œ

pimping 2024-10-10 10:04

Like the realization of idea and graphics and card game idea, definitely high rank

sykisu 2024-10-10 11:56

A little repetitive, but with enjoyable gameplay, all that's missing is booster openings and it's addictive!

futaibu 2024-10-10 11:57

The way the little creatures fight each other is a lot of fun

pierre-marie 2024-10-10 12:02

I really like the card game idea, it works really well!

I do have a few minor comments, though: it's hard to see the cards, and it would have been nice to have them displayed large on the left-hand side so that you could read them properly! (Especially as the full-screen mode doesn't work itch io :') ) The balancing at the start is perhaps a little odd, on one game I end up with just one enemy, on another with 4, including one with 2 attacks and 4 hearts, which can be very frustrating.

But there's a lot of potential here!

alem26 2024-10-10 12:16

Really fun Super Auto Pets style game! The sound effects are 10/10 and a lot of content for 1 dev. Really enjoyed playing it and did not encounter any bugs (besides the odd screen ration when playing in Browser).

thechadrampage 2024-10-10 14:14

Awesome Style!

plasticsword 2024-10-10 15:29

Fun simple gameplay, will there be a multiplayer update?

deantwotwo 2024-10-10 15:47

Cool! Very similar to Super auto pets! Can't wait to see how the heartstone + super auto pets combo will end up creating something new and fresh to the genre! Would've love to see the carts a bit better, right now they are a bit hard to read and the font was a bit small to! Would be nice for the card to over to the center or come to the foreground :)

erasemenot 2024-10-10 18:02

Had fun playing it. I wish I can see the enemies beforehand to know what cards to play.

vipaka 2024-10-10 18:15

The cards were not always playable, and I'm not sure why, maybe I was confused about a mechanic? The art was fresh and the music was energetic, and that helped make this game as charming as it was. Well done!

laywelin 2024-10-10 19:30

I loved the vibe and I can't wait to see a multiplayer update to challenge friends! Visuals are fun, sounds effects are working super well to setup the vibe.

UPDATE: I checked your stream replay and I'm a bit curious about the art being so different from saturday afternoon to sunday morning and done off-stream. Did you use AI to generate it, or was it done by someone else? If it's AI it would be better to be upfront about it.

daria-toni 2024-10-10 20:05

The game looks great and cute! Making a card battler for jam is a very risky business in my opinion, but you did it, that's so cool. Plus for the art style, sounds and music (which often stuttered, but still made me happy). The minus for me was the fact that I can't see in advance what my opponent will be doing. Mostly in such games it is visible, that's the whole point; then you can prepare properly. In this case, I was just preparing for random events. But maybe that was the idea?

sofia-miglan 2024-10-10 20:24

Very high-quality and pleasant graphics. I want to endlessly look at atmospheric backgrounds and cute little characters. It seems to me that you have a great future with such beautiful graphics. There wasn't enough UI, but you didn't have much time. I like the idea of the game, it's simple and fun, it's not boring and I want to play it. The sound effects are funny. I hope you will have cool projects in the future, good luck to you!

alejo-salvador 2024-10-10 22:24

I really liked the concept of the game but obviously there is a lack of content. I was a fun demo game though

forshley 2024-10-10 23:26

is this graphics ai?

sharky3188 2024-10-11 03:39

A cool game, very much similar to something like an auto battler. I'm not sure if all the cards were working as intended? After the ant died it was meant to give health? but i don't feel like it ever worked. Some of the battles felt a bit overly random, i didn't really have much chance to strategize and i would make a build for it to totally fail because of random chance. Overall though, really nice presentation, the card designs and graphics really came together very nice. The audio was great and with a bit more polish i could picture this being a very fun game.

imberny 2024-10-11 12:32

Pretty cool! It's very hard to see what the cards do before you play them. I'm impressed you managed to make this while streaming! That requires the kind of multi-track brain I simply do not have.

Edit: I hope you added an invisible button over the hyperlink in your menu *simply* to track how many people tried to click it without actually opening the web page.

sutt00 2024-10-11 18:19

The music and art is dope. The heart of the cards is flawed. They are not readable when they are in your hand. When you pick them up, the text blurs, so I had no idea what i was doing. For reference on how to display the relevant info well, take a look at Slay The Spire (best card game I've ever played).

haro 2024-10-12 12:55

Such a funny and cool card game, well done! I liked it

desibragg 2024-10-12 20:58

๐Ÿ˜ The sloth is my fave! Also great music! Awesome game!

josep-valls 2024-10-12 22:47

Really nice game. Unfortunately it was very difficult to read the text on the cards and fullscreen didn't work for me. I had to learn some of the specials by trial and error. Also, knowing what the opponent will play may give some more strategy around what you want to do or cards you may want to save for later.

oduvan 2024-10-12 23:16

Great start! The concept is strong, but I agree with others that itโ€™s tough to see what some of the cards do before you play them. The music and visuals were really well done, though. With a few adjustments to readability, this could become a favorite!

jj-cruikshanks 2024-10-13 03:45

Fun game! Great foundation to an autobattler, looking forward to see what you add to it! Biggest complaint I have after 5 matches is just that the text on the cards is really small, it'd be nice if when you hovered over then, the card would get bigger (kinda like hearthstone)! Great game overall

lunaria-rava 2024-10-13 13:21

The cards are quite difficult to read on the bottom, figuring out the text is near impossible. I also had problems spawning the pets, it seems like there is only a very small area where the card must be dragged to successfully turn into an animal.

Also, joining others here, the graphics partially look very AI-ish

munchie-games 2024-10-14 08:32

Audio is great. Love the little bug sounds, and the music is a vibe! Also nice 2D art

arcadeeleven 2024-10-14 13:32

Nice little fighting game, nice work in the jam timeframe. Well done !

vhalenn 2024-10-14 19:05

This is big obvious AI graphics while at the same time not saying it and Opting in the Graphics category.

cliff-coffee 2024-10-14 22:06

Looks very pretty. Gameplay was engaging, but my favorite part was the voice acting during attacks. Checked your stream out a bit but didn't see where you made the background, just the critters - if you made it I would have loved to watch that. I see some comments about the AI background and start screen, is that true? AI "art" makes me upset so I guess I'm just hopeful its not.

exa 2024-10-15 07:43

Nice game,very interesting plot!!!!Nice job!!!!

doraemon 2024-10-17 07:05

Great game! love the graphic, awesome job!

transkuja 2024-10-17 16:15

Really cool game ! I love the visuals and the reflexion behind playing your cards and placing your units Would have been great to see the enemy units for the next round to prepare better, or at least have hints :smile: Loved the game !

lllarso 2024-10-18 18:00

I had fun beating the game. Some parts had a nice polish to it, like the "moving" cards for example.

But unfortunately I also think the graphics are not "self-made". Either you used an AI or premade assets. I actually watched parts of your stream and all big graphic changes happened off-stream (the background and the animals). If someone here asked you about "the visuals weren't made by you", you ignored the message. Why not just say you did it? I have no evidence against you, it just feels overall very fishy regarding the visuals.

In this screenshot of your stream there are assets, which you used for the game like the hearts, crystals and swords. Why are there so many of them, which weren't required like the calender for example? There was not a lot of time, so why making elaborate assets, which won't be in the game?

Screenshot_Colony Clash.png

Then you're LD-title screen, which is also very elaborate doesn't really fit with your In-Game-visuals (the style of your critters are not coherent). Colonist Clash.jpg

I hope you can put light into this situation, because right now I can't rate your game properly.

helperwesley 2024-10-24 21:35

Adorable art and solid gameplay, but it was basically just super auto pets, so I couldn't give full points for innovation.

pachino55 2024-10-26 03:02

Woah so cool! Good job
