Blob Farmer by Atahan
Tend to your blobs while building your deck.
Play with the mouse
game has no audio :(
Also on itch: https://atahan-itchio.itch.io/blop-farmer
Basic game loop is: 1. Draw 2. Play cards to tend to/make/sell/improve blobs 3. Next turn, draw more cards, blobs hunger 4. Every 4 turns its night time where you can buy better cards at the market 5. Upgrade the market to unlock more powerful cards 6. Repeat
I made some bug fixes after submission:
Version 1.2: - fixed cat card being actually "once" - Food now "spoils" overnight because sometimes food gets stuck in places not reachable by blobs - Fixed butcher cards description. Now bigger blobs drop more food - Fixed transmute card description - Fixed merchant blob reactions - Fixed refresh shop cost - Fixed card costs text
Version 1.1: - Fixed the "card remover" never stopping removing cards - Fixed game soft locking if a blob sees food while merging with another blob - WebGL performance improvements (I had SSAO enabled for some reason lmao) - Fix Create Blob Icon colors - Fix blob sell multipliers

Slay the Slime Rancher?
Some game breaking bugs hold it back:
- the sell card sold multiple played cards in a row. Sold my whole deck.
- when after the merger token a food is eaten, the game softlocks
Didn't even realise the game had no audio. Only after I read it^^
Some audio would have helped a lot, and selecting the cards was super frustrating.
I am not entirely sure if there is a bug when you draw cards or if it is intended that you cannot play all your cards.
Some music and sound effects would have really been nice!
Nice job!
Maybe I have not seen the value of the card, but the "marketing +10$" seemed very weak compared to other cards. You could still buy it in the advanced shops, so I guess it can't just be a "trash card".
It's nice that you can direct the little fellows by clicking near them.
The visuals are very clear and the player has a good overlook thanks to the UI. The blobs have a nice personality, I liked them a lot. :)
