I´ve decided to try speed running this game. Time starts when you click hit for the first time and ends when the final opponent´s health reaches 0 my pb so far is 9:26.62
I want to preface this saying I absolutely love this game. All of the card combos are great. The only thing is that needs to be improved is the ai. The 2 of note are necromancer never uses the grave card ability even after he busts, and the bouncer if he only has a 21 and 10 will hit again if the 10 shows up first even tho that is a guaranteed bust. What really pushed me to make this comment though was against the janitor (who on his own already makes kinda strange key card locks) drawling hall pass and then busting with the card supposedly revealed to him by hall pass. Again the game is great it could just use a bit smarter of an Ai especally with later fights.
Truth be told the car felt very much like tank controls, which is what made the game so good. You are very weak in this world and the game portrays this perfectly.
btw i absolutely love how midrena looks when he gets upper cutted especially in the combo attack. keep up the good work! i would love to see this become a full game. :)
pps: whenever you get knocked down the enemies keep fighting which can lead to some cheap hits along with looking weird also i refought xerneas to see if that would fix the bug and decided to see what it looked like when you got xeneas down to zero without a combo attack and honestly i really like the idea of xerneas being the final fight (maybe toning him up a bit in difficulty to) and making it every time he was knocked down without a combo attack he would just get up with lower heath to make it easier for a combo attack kill. You could even add a message from someone outside of the ring saying something along the lines of "You need to hit him with something harder to keep him down!" so that there is a way for players to know what they need to do in game.
ps: after typing this i went back to the slime planet to make sure my opinion on midrena was correct and it put me back on the broken planet as if i beat xerneas
I am just saying this because i like this game and really do want it to succeed but there are a couple things that do need to be fixed. For starters I do like the idea of xeneron can only be knocked out by a combo punch. It reminds me of the how bald bull works in the rematch of mike tyson's punch out. The only thing is the fight should be balanced round it as such. The main thing i ran into was that after beating midrena (who is a much easier fight than the first 2 as it is super easy to get hits on him and out damage him) i was placed on the broken planet as if i just beat xerenas and the next planet didnt unlock.
lion heart dosent drawl you extra cards if your empty likely because it checks at the start of your turn and the first thing you do is draw a card meaning it never works unless your webbed
So i was trying to get a better spawn with the librarians by leaving and reentering the room, but i kept getting them in spots where they were exactly one away from walking into my line of sight. curios i decided to forfeit the run and see what was going on and discovered this cursed room
i would say potion of invisibility with purple slime brainstorm and dragon scale works better because you will always get the money spent making it back and have a 2 out of 3 chance of getting an extra 280 as well
the only change i would make is make there be more of a punishment for falling off of all the platforms because it is easy to just fall forever racking up points
i figured out what it is and overall i feel like it would have been a better idea to have it be swamp and desert. Overall i feel like the game would be better without the discovery mechanic but at least all of them are easy to figure out. Im assuming the creator changed it because of it being difficult but i feel like this could have been fixed by having the recipe swapped 2 pyramids with a swamp in the middle
