The auto movement totally kills this game. Your party constantly separates, you start clicking on one group of enemies and your party heads toward a different one for no reason, and there's no way to back off to use a potion to heal characters. At first I was like, "Holy sh!t! An idle game with a purpose?!?!" and now I'm just frustrated and let down. Everything else was so good idk why you included this mechanic. Btw, the autoraid button doesn't do anything as far as I can tell. On or off your warrior just blazes across the screen triggering multiple spawns.

Ooh that's bad. I enjoy the auto movement; yeah they aren't really smart right now but I should be able to improve their brains a bit more :) Thanks!
This is genius in production quality but it's no idle game. Your team can't die in an idle game. It is a weird clicky game that doesn't fall in the idle category and instead innovates with some strange new ideas that may not feel cohesive to some players.
laFunk responds:
Mmm you are probably right, I'm really not an expert on Idle games, but I think that category fits ok. It was that or calling the game Tamagotchi Sword lol
Out of all the idle game genre I've played through flash games, mobile games, etc. This is one of the most interesting one! At this stage of the game, right now is alright. The game has potential, especially with this kind of concept. Sadly there would no longer have any updates, as it's said on the description.
The only sad thing about this, is that it's really that short, excluding the reset button. A total of 7 kinds of stages only, seemed a bit too short. That you'd only have to achieve solely like a power gaming kind of play. Some items are already quite useless for the Soulbound combinations. Not to mention how ridiculously high it cost to combining items with a range type of weapons, most probably the cost of increasing the range. Made me abandon that kind of weapon and create a much more better one.
But despite that, the game really is enjoying. Already had my 10th reset, and 1 full reset (data reset) just to play the whole game again. Hopefully It'll be all covered up, through the many updates yet to come. That is if the creator of the game is willing to continue about it or at least make a better sequel of it :)
laFunk responds:
Hey there! There will be more updates! Just not as big as adding bosses and the combinator were. There are now 8 stages :) The Invitation Ticket will send you to the last one. Thanks for the feedback!
Super fun game. Just wish it was longer!
Was going well, then I kind of broke the experience with some apparent "cheat" keys :(
