It grows linearly but it should start slower and escalate more later on. People complained for it being both to hard and to easy for this reason I believe.\n\n@lagrume-masque Thank you :blush:  It was a very late addition, but well worth it, glad you liked it.\n\n@twobythree Glad that you liked it :smile: , and I do agree about the music. I wanted to make a soft theme for the main menu and a more intense one, but didn't have enough time and ended up just using the main menu theme ingame.\n\n@a-coltzz I agree, audio isn't my strong suite, but I felt like anything was better than nothing, here's hoping it didn't hurt the experience :sweat_smile:. \n\n@kunonooni Thank you I'm glad to see that you think so :blush: I hopefully intend on expanding on this game, it was fun to make and I am very happy to see everyone's feedback. And yes I explained most things badly :sweat_smile: But priests basically heal you since any unit that you don't attack or defend with adds to your HP, but Priests add the most.\n\n@victorcrafty Thank you, and yes I tried to distinguish game important text in red, but overall the game has way to much unnecessary text.\n\n@pawciu I think stacks is a better term true. This matters the most for hoplites since you can lose some of them during attacks. To be honest the numbers aren't perfectly balanced, however with play testing it is possible to reach level 300+. It is my fault for not explaining the mechanics too well.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Vinay Rao","author_uid":"1132702","time":"2019-04-30T22:56:22Z","epoch":1556664982,"modified":1556664982,"text":"Quite a fun card game.  I rather like the upgrade and health regeneration mechanics.  I missed out on the upgrade mechanic the first time I played, but the second time I played, it felt pretty good.\n\nThe trumpet fanfare, while nice, is a bit much after 72 rounds, haha.  I think both our games ran into a repetitive audio trap, but at least your game wasn't quite as ear piercing as mine.\n\nI think a display for ones' current health and regeneration would be handy if you continue development on it.  It's difficult to tell how much health I will lose from playing a card or taking a hit.\n\nI think this game has a lot of room for expansion, which is pretty cool.\n\nOverall it's a pretty original game, and fun to boot I like that.

And I do agree about the audio :joy: Music isn't my thing but I still enjoyed making it. Also I do agree that the UI should offer more and better feedback for actions and decisions. And for the health I do agree, but fun fact I initially wanted health to be limited to the size of the health jar, but forgot to code the upper size limit :joy: , so yes that should be part of the UI.
