I agree with some of the comments I'm seeing on here already, this is really easy to pickup and I already like the direction you're going in with the content. It's not too complex and yet there are enough elements present already where I find myself having to think through decisions to try and save my party members. Really great work here, looking forward to seeing more!

Incredibly easy to pick up and play, and with a solid amount of content and strategy involved. It's rough around the edges obviously, but all the potential is there. I'm excited to see what you do next (be it an update or a new project).

This is a pretty cool game! It's pretty fun with all of the options between party members and abilities. Surprisingly well balanced for all of the possible combinations too

very cool & well designed game! 

Pretty cool so far, love the references lol.  Excited to see more

10/10 game hugely recommend

interesting game so far. i managed to kill one enemy and then died. how do i grow my party? do i have to clear the map? 

also i make YT videos about itch games like this one:

do you want your game reviewed in my next video???

Yep. Once you clear the map of enemies you'll move on and can then upgrade your party. 

Feel free to include it in your video.
