Nice job, I liked it, although the player character gets overwhelmed quite easily. The camera moving around and focusing the enemies really sold it for me. One thing I'd like to add though - Why can enemies spawn right next to me _and_ hit in the same turn? D: Seems a bit unfair, but alas, not a big deal!
How neat! Pretty graphics, right on theme, and the "talking" gimmick was also very nice. I will say that, once like... 10 monsters or so are on your screen (i am not the fastest typer) it gets _very_ hectic, and I found it irritating to not be able to finish some monsters because their LONG names were covered by the shorter ones that sprint at you... The music was also not... my cup of tea, though fitting. I didn't reach it, but, is there an end? Will have to give it a few more tries eventually :)
I liked it, the music is really nice, not too short, could've been longer, but I'm a sucker for any music with good rythm and/or percussion instruments. In terms of gameplay, it felt very stiffling to not know what summons you could get in a level, would've been nice to have a set amount of cards visible from the start, more than once I was stuck right at the end because I used 1 dragon too much or 1 tp too much. Graphics wise it's decent, it feels like it's its own unique style and for a gamejam project it fits right in. Nice job!
