Monster Sanctuary by Erfeo

[raw]
made by Erfeo for LD33 (JAM)
This didn't come out quite as good as I hoped. It is superficially complex but the depth of what you can actually do is quite limited. The only interaction is choosing the combatants.

There is no win-state, you should just try to survive as long as possible.

I like the idea of dungeon-tamagochi a lot ! Too bad there aren't more interactions or clues about the choice we make

Fun idea but it got repetitive fairly quickly. By month 15 it was clear I was going to lose but it was just a battle of attrition as to when.

You're right about 'limited' actions, as it's quite boring to look at the characters fighting. Glad that the graphics kind of make up to it.

The idea is cool and the game is nice, but it's a shame that there is no music or sound. :/

What a strange Idea, I liked the story, but the gameplay could be enriched by more choices for the player.
Well done.

Besides having no music, I had a ton of fun with it! A little more content and it would be a pretty amazing game!

Cool idea. Definitely worth exploring some more. I dug the art too.

Nice mechanics! Poor Theodorus..
This may become a really interesting game if you add some more interaction.
Also, I tried to predict the outcome of battles just by calculating Enemy defence - my attack vs My defence - enemy attack. Was glad to see that it has more depth than I thought.

I really liked the narration in the beginning.

Really liked the setting, idea and execution. You should definitely expand upon what you've done here. So far so good!

Really, really good Game, even if repitive. The only thing it is missing is music.

But i survived only for 7 months :P

It felt like the game play should evolved more over the duration. I managed 12 months.
