As the Theoi , you can change the human world simply by playing various cards.
Look at those tiny things fighting with each other, you can both make them stronger or weaker:
Is it a grape or a comet? Let them become too scared to fight. Remember those fat thighs on those altar? Give them some strength, let them feel your answer to their pray …
But remember, you are fed by the Faith of them. Try everything you have in your hand. And enjoy every whisper of worship, as weapons clash.
Which one should win? Παν μέτρον άριστον (“Moderation is best in all things.”)
For you, it does not matter which tiny human wins the war. Your goal is to gain more Faith before the battle end.
Use Faith to choose a card and drag to one side.
Influence the war situation by using the chosen card (changing speed of the resource recovery, and the strength of soldiers etc. ) The one endured your effect would provide you with Faith.
Believe you have known what to do: Chaos & Balance
Your game has really cool visuals! The amount of time it took for the cards to take effect on the battlefield did make me feel like I was more distantly involved in the struggles... until giant centaurs came out. There are some neat ideas here!
This is a really cool take on the theme. Having humanity be the tiny creatures from the perspective of the greek gods is something I never would've thought of. I really like the take on winning where you don't want either side to win and want to try and balance the conflict as long as possible. Really highlights the futility of war. Great entry. Well done.
@zhuub，Yes, the current game strategy is the direction we need to adjust, as the balance is a bit difficult to achieve. Additionally, the scoring system for negative cards and effect cards is different. Therefore, the use of positive and negative cards will vary depending on different battle situations.
Love the visuals and overall theme, they really stand out. I think you need some more variety for the gameplay loop though. More sprites would be cool too, but I understand why that's difficult.
Really unique idea and the execution is solid here. I am curious to see how this would work out in a non-jam version. It would probably be a slower game. Great art and sounds too

Not much strategy to the game though. You play positive cards on the side that's winning, and negative cards on the side that's losing.
