Collect The Dragoons

I liked the catching mini game, the overworld was just too large and the player's movement speed too slow. I think I collected all the dragoons in the forest area and closed the game a bit early, just because it took so long. Music was great, art was charming. Solid entry given the theme!

Neat monster collection game. I liked the catching mechanic, but I wish there was a bit more variety, like maybe different monster types had a different shape or a different spin (pun intended :D) on the emchanic, so it's not just the same square over and over. Regardless, this game taught me that my reaction time is maybe not quite as good as it used to be >.>

I wish the walking speed was a bit faster, or the maps smaller, since it takes a long time to get around.

Lastly, daaaamn, that cave music slaps!!

I found this game very charming, and it reminded me greatly of all the monster collecting games out there (Pokemon, Digimon, Monster Rancher). I love that you know what the race of monsters is known as (Dragoons) from the title. If not for that, I would have just called them generic monsters.

The catching minigame was interested and could probably be more varied without the 48hour restriction.

The window for being "successful" in the minigame felt a bit too small though. Once you get in the rhythm it's fine. But with no escape mechanic and if you were "okay" at the minigame, you'd kinda get into a loop of goods and bads that kept you stuck for x amount of time before you either fail or succeed, and then have to do it all over again with the next monster.

Nice game! Reminds me of Pokemon.

I like it! Cool idea, and I like the solution for " catching" things (although I'm horrible at it). Keep it up, be looking forward to seeing what you do next time too!

This is a cool game. The capture system is a great skill based mini-game, and sometimes I played the battle simply to hear the awesome music. The art is ok, but the monster designs are great. The overworld felt a little shepherded in, but that's all right because of the amazing minimap system. It's really hecking impressive, though I wish it was a toggle rather than a hold. I would also love it if you could explain the objective - catch 'em all - a little better. There is also a problem where you can miss every monster and still clear an area - maybe you can make them respawn somewhere random when you lose? Anyway, I love the quantity of content one gets out of this. It's just satisfying to move around the tile-based system and catching monsters even more so. Would love to see a more complete version.

Not sure how to go back to the menu, Esc goes back there, but doesn't let me to choose map again. Also, in caves one monster was bugged and I couldn't start catching it for some reason. Music is amazing, I love it! I like the game, kinda simplistic "combat" which I would compare to Pokemon GO, but still fun.
