Would be fun against a human player. I would've preferred solid colours to the noisy background, but that's just me. Great job!"},{"author_name":"Pinpickle","author_uid":"1179","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:03am","epoch":1418104680,"text":"It is quite a confusing game, but I've never been much for card games. I feel like a good deal of thought has gone into the mechanics so kudos for that, and the programmer graphics are fantastic.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Still, I found myself randomly clicking and watching numbers change even after looking through the tutorial. It's quite hard to read the resource consumption stats in the card preview."},{"author_name":"Samm","author_uid":"44022","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:04am","epoch":1418104740,"text":"I liked it, theres some balance and rules issues potentially, but a solid idea.  Plus, it would totally all fit on one screen if I didnt have so many cards."},{"author_name":"purezero","author_uid":"24478","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:19am","epoch":1418105640,"text":"good idea good thoughts and strategy, and looks like lots of work. I just don't like the game itself sorry."},{"author_name":"calavera","author_uid":"45053","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:32am","epoch":1418106420,"text":"Fun little magic clone, it takes too long to complete however because you have to destroy EVERYTHING and unless you were lucky enough to get a bunch of ballistas at the end thats going to be 15+ minutes of destroying their land with nothing to defend it.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It was almost worth it just for the ending SFX =P"},{"author_name":"sirikan","author_uid":"33950","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:33am","epoch":1418106480,"text":"Spacedoubt: I actually had a solid background to start with but thought it was to boring. Should have stuck with it huh :p. I am considering adding that in later on if I can find the motivation over the xmas holiday break.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Pinpickle: Yeah I should have made them a bit bigger and in hindsight I should have added stats on how much resources you consume and generate each turn.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Samm: yeah i struggled with that a bit. I think it might actually have been better if i made the whole table pan with the mouse rather than the individual sections. As for the balance I tried to tweak it but ran out of time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Purezero: no need to apologies any feedback is good feedback. :)"},{"author_name":"NoahbroCZ","author_uid":"45415","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:01am","epoch":1418108160,"text":"Great card game, but sometimes I forgot to draw card from deck :D.

Though getting a frosty snowman probably helped.  It does say PlayER again win you win, but maybe that's some meta concept I didn't pick up on :)"},{"author_name":"sorlok","author_uid":"28370","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:13am","epoch":1418108880,"text":"Interesting mechanics. Found the fonts way too tiny, the music (sorry!) was really distracting to me. The combat was interesting too, and overall it was a good game, but it felt a bit unfocused in terms of what kind of gameplay flow it was aiming for."},{"author_name":"kierygeek","author_uid":"45726","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:19am","epoch":1418109240,"text":"I don't usually play computer card games, but this was really fun!"},{"author_name":"davient","author_uid":"40961","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:24am","epoch":1418109540,"text":"The game mechanics are good. But either unbalanced or the AI is very poor as I can annihilate every time.  Would love to see an updated balanced\/multiplayer version. Maybe just make the town hall the VC, and add extra defense perks."},{"author_name":"GAFBlizzard","author_uid":"12278","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:48am","epoch":1418110980,"text":"Very involved system for only 48 hours, nice work.  I thought the game was going to be super confusing since I did not really follow the tutorial, but then it made sense and I won the game after a while.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I'm not sure if the tower is bugged though.  It says it is a defender unit, but I seem to be able to attack resources past it."},{"author_name":"ElBatanony","author_uid":"35385","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:53am","epoch":1418111280,"text":"I like the game and the idea, but I never really did understand card games that much.
