Ayyy Leon makes another appearance! He's got his egg and I've got a new card. Nice submission!

@trsthstrs thx! I wanted to add animations but ran out of time. Having the creatures run around is actually a really good idea and something I hadn't considered :D

Fun idea! I like both trading cards and point & click adventure games, so I enjoyed it a lot even though it's short! Plus, short isn't a bad thing in a game jam - it's nice to have a successful ending.

Cool idea for the theme. This was a nice and short point and click puzzler. I love the concept of trying to capture creatures from playing cards that are hiding in your house. Overall I think you did a great job, nice work.

I liked the click and point style of the game. It was cool seeing the cards get their monsters once you gave them the right items. Decent little game, wanted music and sounds though. Would've been cool to hear each monster make a sound once you collected them. Also, nice having a beginning and end to the game.

Cool Game wwith the right amount of hints in the cards. It was fun getting to find all of the creatures on the cards and make them happy in different ways

It has a strange sense of humor, as I like.
