This was really good! I actually found myself focusing on beating it and liked that it had multiple levels that progressively became more difficult. I would've liked some music in the background, but the sounds effects were really good. The numbers being very clear and the background changing to yellow and then red to indicate the stability of the ice was a really nice touch.
I enjoy a good card and turn based action game, so I enjoyed the gameplay of this, even though I struggled to see how this fit the theme of "Unstable". I played the updated version and I did find the tempo of the explanations, choosing cards and actions to be a bit too fast paced for me. I found myself a little confused at times, trying to read and watch the actions happen so quickly. And while I like the animations of the movements, it felt off since they didn't seem to fit the simplistic art style of the rest of the game. But if you update the art to match the animation/vice versa, I think it would look really good. You published it as an unfinished game, but I think you're going in a really good direction!
I really love the art for this, I'm an absolute sucker for pixelated game art! The sounds were awesome and the music worked great for your Halloween theme too. It was super cute! I like the stats you can see, like how many candies were submitted too. I think this was a fantastic start to something more. I hope you add more stuff to this and release it as a more developed game. I loved this!
