Card Stasis Prototype
A small prototype made over the weekend to test out an idea that mixes Parasite Eve with Slay the Spire. Dodge enemies and bullets in real time while charging up your act gauge to stop time and play some cards. Somewhat of dodge-em-up, but turn based when you attack (like Undertale? kids know what that is right). There's only one battle, but has a complete victory/death game loop at least.
Lot of things I want to do with this prototype, but the basic idea is there. I think it needs actual enemy AI to make the defensive/healing cards more viable. Of course more card effects and different enemy scenarios would also help.
Note: Known invincibility bug that prevents you from dodging, didn't have time to fix it but it is known sorry!

This is a pretty fascinating concept. I really want to see more done with this.
Very nice concept! It was very interesting to figure out how to use the cards, such as teleporting into close range to get the most out of the slash cards.
