[Playtesting Request] Spirit Guardian — Tamagotchi meets Slay the Spire

[Playtesting Request] Spirit Guardian — Tamagotchi meets Slay the Spire

We're looking to get some feedback for our next game! The game was created for the Uncrank'd Pre-Summer Game Jam, but we really like what we have made and want to keep going with development and turn it into something a little bit more.

Spirit Guardian is a turn-based roguelite virtual pet game about raising young forest spirits from hatching to adulthood. Train them, care for them, and watch them change depending on how well you nurture them.

During the day, prepare your spirit through training and care. Build up the stats that will help them survive once they're back in the wild.

At night, the real adventure begins. Face monster encounters, discover random events, and uncover hidden treasure.

After a handful of days, your spirit will transition into its next Phase. Guide it through all 3 phases and it earns its place in the wild. But if the journey proves difficult, it will need the safety of a spirit sanctuary to call home.

Here is a link to our itch page that has a downloadable build: https://flywheel-games.itch.io/spirit-guardian-game-jam-edition

Do you like the game? Thoughts on spirit design? How is the balance for you? Is the game manual clear? Is unlocking cards and filling out the encyclopedia enough motivation for you to do multiple runs? All feedback is welcome. 🙂
