I like how when you move a monster past someone else they sort of shove the other out of the way. Would have been nice to have more than one action per turn, maybe, so you could set up more complicated strategies?"},{"author_name":"Robot Souls Games","author_uid":"42084","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 2:37am","epoch":1440469920,"text":"Pretty good.

Great attention to detail and polish - initial camera work helped set the mood, and the power meter \/ arrows made for a satisfying experience. After trying out the &quot;move&quot; action once, I ended up just going with &quot;attack&quot; for the remainder of the game :)"},{"author_name":"AntonyBaasan","author_uid":"20288","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 2:34pm","epoch":1440512940,"text":"to Pilly: :) Yes, we have to do something with &quot;Move&quot; action, to make it more useful.

You should maybe combine it with the attack action? (by having an exponential jauge of power, the monster could move with low power and attack with high power)"},{"author_name":"TheSambassador","author_uid":"3936","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:43pm","epoch":1440527880,"text":"Pretty cool!  Seemed odd that there was so long of a delay between hitting space to set power and actually shooting.  Needs some UI feedback there.  The music and graphics were great!  Moving was pointless, seemed better to attack 100% of the time."},{"author_name":"zanenga","author_uid":"34576","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:46pm","epoch":1440528060,"text":"Very cool!

Specially in the beginning."},{"author_name":"Kakureta","author_uid":"50287","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:48pm","epoch":1440528180,"text":"A pretty fun game and an interesting concept!

It's interesting how all the monsters start completely aligned, as if it were a game of chess, and then it's just mayhem. I don't really see the point of using &quot;Move&quot; since &quot;Attack&quot; is more effective in every single way.\r<br\/>Would be nice to have a basic AI so we could play single player.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Great job nonetheless, I had fun!"},{"author_name":"wavegunner232","author_uid":"57052","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 6:58pm","epoch":1440528780,"text":"fun but you need 2 people. that's my only complaint"},{"author_name":"Code Medicine","author_uid":"45794","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 1:09am","epoch":1440551040,"text":"Cool entry, its a really interesting take on a board game.

Music was spot on, mood was solid, unfortunately I have no friends to play with so I had to beat myself up.  Gameplay felt a little slow in response time, wouldn't mind seeing different monsters use different abilities?  Think you could expand this and make a real game out of it."},{"author_name":"AntonyBaasan","author_uid":"20288","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 2:15am","epoch":1440555000,"text":"Thanks for the ideas guys.

At some point I wasn't even using &quot;move&quot; anymore, only &quot;attack&quot;. It was easy for me to control the attack intensity.\r<br\/>If you really want players to need to use &quot;move&quot; you could maybe set some energy cost and make the &quot;attack&quot; cost more energy??? \r<br\/>Anyways it's a lovely looking game!
