Even though the game is unfinished, I had a lot of fun playing it. Perhaps you could make a post-jam version sometime in the future?

The game did lag quite a bit in my Firefox browser, though.

The concept seems interesting, but I got stuck in a dungeon room with no functional exits.

Cool game. The controls are a little clunky, especially the combat, but the art style is amazing!

I ended up being stuck on a "dungeon" (?), where i was unable to find the enemy.
I wondered why the chests were lootable, even though the enemies were still alive.

The first (and only) enemy, i could find, was stuck behind the black background, only his hp-bar was visible.

I did not quite understand the features of the cards, i just won the combat by randomly smashing the buttons.

The music and art is great, and i bet a "finished" version of the game could be fun.

I'd say some kind of tutorial would be nice, as the combat system is confusing, atleast for me.

We are going to patch and work a bit the game to add missing assets (character, monster, boss, portal etc).
