The Un's Stable by Kongo
Howdy!!
Welcome to The Un's Stable. Uncle Un is an old farmer who needs help with his animals. The job is to keep animals populations stable. If any of animals go extinct Un will get mad for sure.
The game is a turn based strategy with auto battler feature. Each turn animals will inform player about their move plans that will be executed on the next turn. Player can use cards to perform actions that will impact those decisions. Prevent destabilization from species extinction by keeping at least one animal of each species alive for as long as you can.
Oh... can you also finish any of quests that Un left for you? Those surely are pretty when they get some colors.

GG has you, great games!
:purple_heart: :dart: :frog:
EDIT : I came onto a bug : a cow killed a chicken and it said my pigs went extinct because I used hex on my pig few turns ago. nothing too bad but I think it's useful to point it out
With more objectives and stuff that can happen, this could be a mobile game already now
Love the human singing and making animal sounds in the music, which is great overall.
Also the art style is very well done
@beats That's true! Actually we added the movement priority a few hours before the launch and overlooked explaining the movement order to the player. Definitely a thing to add post-gamejam :)
Quite an interesting take for simulation. I find the 70% threshold the hardest among the quests. I think 50 or 60% will be easier. I tried for 10~15minutes and I couldn't get even one of them.
The Entropy card sounds like a good idea, but when I clicked it, I immediately regretted after seeing the result. I ended up throwing the run due to it. Oh well.
Anyway, great game and good job on the implementation.
I didn't expect that many animals from Entropy card!
Honestly, i love everything about this game.
It's so engaging it feels like a game that's someone worked for a year atleast.
It's the best game from this jam so far, and i bet that won't change for me!
Not much to say except: Really good job!
And the music 😍
Great job
I've made it to 12 days :smile: The concept is very unique, the graphics and sfx are very polished. What i like the most is the fact that you've put in a lot of effort in explaining the player what to do and how it is working. Therefore i could jump into the concept right away and try some stuff out! Really one of the best games i've played so far.
Original concept. I only got the cow killed by chicken and 20days on the farm achievement. I had hard time trying to split my only group of pigs (5 pigs killing everybody). Finally the chicken died day 58 (^^"). Impressive game (^^). Good Job.
Amazing job with the game. The animals look so cute, and the soundtrack... just sooo good! The tutorial is also a welcome addition. I finished at day 34. Unfortunately I couldn't get all of the achievements in one go. I need to try it again! It was pure pleasure to play! *oink*
On the gameplay side i thought it was overall pretty solid, though maybe a little too much dependent on luck at time ?
Love what you did with the title, wording on the page and overall vibe around the entry ;)
Thanks for making it! It was pretty fun <3
Managed to get the 70% chicken achievement along with "chicken vs moozilla". Ironically, the chicken were also the first ones to disappear!
I don't know what else to say. I'm stunned.
(Btw the music is the best. Oink, oink, oink!)
I always love turn-based games, farming games and card games. I can't believe you guys have made my ideal game realized.
The game experience reminded me of another great game Into The Breach. I love to play your game again and again.
Thanks for making it!
Absolutely loved the game. Great job all around! Super cool game :D
Good luck!
Uncontrollable and yet you have it somehow under control.
Congratulations on the superb game
I wish there be a restart button, to use it when you see that you are going to fail
The pixel art is perfection well done.
I could see this being a great mobile game that I log into everyday please do something great with this foundation!
Edit: Good luck on the over 100 ratings you are so close!!!
Gameplay does get a bit stale after a while. I got up to 51 days and then stopped :)
Its pretty difficult though ^^
Its like a crazy puzzle game that is awefuly hard to master and totally chaotic at times. I had a super strong fox group and I always tried to keep them away from everything :D
