Unicorn Dragon Battle !

Simple idea. Excellent execution. I love that it adds a new element to Rock Paper Scissors. Really makes you examine your opponent's motives more closely.

  Thanks!! We weren't sure if it was actually fun, until we finished MVP, and saw that it does actually take some skill and psyching out your opponent to win...

  I played it the whole drive to work. Don't worry, I was carpooling. ;)

The game looks good but the play seemed slow or disconnected. It took me a little while to realize that the countdown was involved. It would have been better to jump to the results as soon as each friend selects their play. It was also confusing seeing both player options on 1 page.

  connectivity issues, counter, and making the selection right away were improvements we made after playtesting a bit, though the changes didn't make it in before the submission deadline! >_

The characters are cute and the UI is very easy to use. However I did not notice the health bar until I had used it a couple times so that could be more apparent.

  thanks for the feedback, yes, styles did fall to lower priority nearing the hackathon deadline.
  in fact, the healthbar is broken on safari/ios !
  if you want to play the fixed version with your friends, you can play the updated (styles and safari fixed) version at http://dragons.gomagames.com

The meta in this game is real!

  thanks for the feedback!

  we didn't provision much time for enough playtesting before the deadline, so i was worried that there may be cards that were imbalanced. After playing against my wife many times, the game seems to be balanced enough! and wow, you think you know somebody...

So much fun!!! Takes rock paper scissors to a whole new level

  oh thanks! ^___^ i worked hard to make the layout flexy for phones and desktops. still working on css flashiness on the post-hackathon dragons.gomagames.com version

Needs instructions or a tutorial, unsure how this works. Couldn't make the pre-deadline version do anything interesting other than selecting squares.

  Agreed! thanks for the feedback. Yes we'll definitely add some instructions and tutorial on how to play the rock paper scissors game.
  If you were able to select more than 1 of the squares then i'm sorry, that must be a bug that we couldn't catch in time.

Cute and stunning art style and really simple and clean UI, smashing work! I think the fact that you can see the power-ups your opponent has truly does add to game strategy in a fun and inventive way.

  smashing work! :D

+ great graphics, simple to share and start the game
- what is going on? What cards can I (should I) click on? This was very unclear.

  thanks Gleb!
  I agree, once the game starts, there is no guidance for the players on what they can/should do next. We will be adding clear instructions for what the player can do once the rock paper scissors game has started.

The game, UI, and characters look good. That said, I have absolutely no idea how to play. I could click on characters, but it wasn't obvious if it did anything. I think the game is missing some user feedback to let players know what they are doing. I could also use some instructions on how I am supposed to play, it is very non-obvious to me. I was able to tie the game, but I have no idea what I did to tie the game, and what different things I'd need to do to actually win. I also tried your latest version just to see if it had some instructions, but I was unable to join a game I made in another browser. Good job getting something working, though, it definitely looks like a good start!

  yes we will be adding clear instructions on how 2 players can connect and then play a head to head game of rock paper scissors.

  Ah, it wasn't even obvious that this was rock paper scissors. Now that I've seen some other reviews and your reply, I see other people weren't as slow as myself, but if I missed it, other people will miss it too.

I'm not sure if there was something else i had to do but the counter sat at 0 and nothing else happened
