We have a single player 'versus AI' option on the main menu...\r\r@sugarbyte - thank you very much!\r\r@xdegtyarev, thank you for your feedback!"},{"author_name":"muramasa","author_uid":"30442","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 3:49am","epoch":1398743040,"text":"I experienced a whole lot of bugs. From texts that never left the screen ("Choose a...deck", it was behind the enemy creatures), to misplaced cards, until the AI decided she would do nothing, locking the game. Also I think that you should add a Back button at the connection lobby. If I want to go back to the selection screen, I have to reload the page.\r\rNow talking about the game. I loved it. It breaks some paradigms, and it's pretty tactical. I would like to play it with way more cards and stuff, and against people. I hope you people continue developing it."},{"author_name":"Exeneva","author_uid":"21296","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 3:50am","epoch":1398743100,"text":"@muramasa, thank you for your honest feedback! I'm aware there were a lot of bugs we weren't able to fix before the submission deadline, and I have them on my task list for fixing in the near future.\r\rI definitely do plan on continuing to develop this game post-LD!"},{"author_name":"TeamPurpleDolphins","author_uid":"37395","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 4:25am","epoch":1398745200,"text":"I'm jealous of your team's artistic talent.

However, the tutorial was a little unclear and as a result the rules seem overly complex. I also had an issue with cards in my hand enlarging so I could see them but then not decreasing back to a normal size so that I could continue to play. Overall a very good effort if a bit unpolished. Well done."},{"author_name":"camlang","author_uid":"34675","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 12:52pm","epoch":1398862020,"text":"Great artworks!

It does defy some conventions of card games, which I really appreciated. The tutorial is long, since it's a meaty part of teaching someone how to play. I would suggest highlighting buttons\/areas that the tutorials are referring to so it doesn't seem like text just talking to you. I'm not super great about being patient enough to sit through tutorials, so it took a lot of effort to focus on what it was telling me. (I'm that kind of person that would rather jump in and learn how to play during board games than to sit and be told from the rulebook!) I think it has great potential! Great job! :)"},{"author_name":"MithosKuu","author_uid":"34614","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 7:47pm","epoch":1398886920,"text":"Looks good, something I will definitely play with friends"},{"author_name":"McFunkypants","author_uid":"2297","time":"May 4, 2014 @ 5:32pm","epoch":1399224420,"text":"Looks great!"},{"author_name":"McFunkypants","author_uid":"2297","time":"May 4, 2014 @ 5:32pm","epoch":1399224420,"text":"The art is great!"}],"images":["ld29\/21296-2c60e5f0688cf58fa83252530b003f35.jpg","ld29\/21296-98cff68a774fff26ce64845b6e899a62.jpg","ld29\/21296-e7ecf29931d1ba076a8ea2fa605638ee.jpg","ld29\/21296-0a24a246f52bf83db0d8baed11b64b13.jpg","ld29\/21296-be7a3048d59e1bf1a5e0fc7fddd27705.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.zems.com\/alpha\/v001\/","text":"Web"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"20598","g_author":"21296","g_event":"LD29","g_eventkey":"22","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"20627","g_title":"Zems Online CCG - Beneath the Sea Edition!","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"482","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/21296-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/21296-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/21296-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/21296-shot4.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/342546\/21296-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"A board game\/card game hybrid that features a single player vs AI (with built-in tutorial mode).
