I'm not really sure why I lost when I did though. Seemed like I lost due to not having enough attack, although the only instruction I read said you lose when you run out of power. I also didn't understand why I can't attack something on the first turn it comes into the play lane.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"automatonvx","author_uid":"1004125","time":"2017-07-31T12:09:39Z","epoch":1501502979,"modified":1501502979,"text":"Interesting game, took me a little while to figure out what was going on and what the power and attack on the right meant, maybe some labels would help for those not familiar with this style of game. With a little bit of UI tweaking to make it easier to understand for new users I think it has a lot of potential. Fun.

It took me quite some time to figure out what the heck I was doing, but eventually I got the hang of it! I think. Maybe. Once I got used to it, though, I found it to be pretty goshdarned interesting! Ended up having two rows hogging a sword each with 0 discovery, and the third row having full discovery so I could see all threats in the future. Learnt that was a bad thing though when they were sitting in my 'inventory' and debuffing me... If there's a way to properly explain the mechanics to a new player, I'm not sure what it is, but I hope you find it~","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"dracominer","author_uid":"1010083","time":"2017-07-31T19:33:59Z","epoch":1501529639,"modified":1501529639,"text":"The game was a bit odd for me. I found it difficult to understand what I was doing and why I shoudl be doing it. If you coudl establish earlier on what actions that player needs to take and then set up why they should make them, the game would be much better and easier for people to try out.

Your base attack is 0, and some things require a certain minimum attack. The red X indicates that you are not strong enough to defeat it, and hence unable to act on it.\n\n@oxrock @justinooncx @dracominer\n\nYes, the tutorial\/teaching could do with a lot of improvements - I'm thinking a tutorial level with everything preset, and dialog teaching how to play. Some UI improvements, such as bringing description towards the item itself, could also help :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ToonTeamJ","author_uid":"1013606","time":"2017-08-01T17:21:31Z","epoch":1501608091,"modified":1501608091,"text":"Interesting, though it does take some time to learn.
