A 2.5D dungeon crawler focused on a risk-versus-reward mechanic. At key points in the game, you'll be forced to make a "Would You Rather" style choice: you pick a helpful buff ('cookie'), but it always comes paired with a random, gameplay-altering debuff (the risk). Your success depends entirely on your ability to adapt, as the debuffs are designed to fundamentally change your strategy. The game provides the challenge of making these choices blind, with no knowledge of the enemies or challenges that lie ahead. This creates high replayability, since the combination of buffs and debuffs makes every run a unique and fun experience

Really interesting art direction and fluid gameplay! The card choices with the modifiers works really well too. I just wished it had more levels, but I get the they didn't have much time considering the deadline!  Awesome game overall, congratulations ( -u-)/

Thank you so much for your understanding and for all the kind words! Everyone on the team gave their best, and I’m really glad that it shows in the final result. Thanks a lot for playing ♥

Just finished the game ,Love it, I find it decently challenging ,Art and sound is very beautiful so props to the artists and composer , however some feedback :
- I dont see how this game fits the theme

- Get Boring Quickly

- When the VFX pop up my game stutters.

overall good game !

Thanks for testing our game! Regarding the theme, we tried something different. The idea is that the player's choices grant them a 'cookie' (a buff), but they also take a risk in the process (a debuff). These debuffs significantly influence the player's playstyle, which is where the real risk is. They don't know what challenge awaits them or the types of enemies that are yet to come.
