C-A-T-C-H
- Use arrows and Z to make selections.
- In the overworld, the roll of the dice tells you how many tiles you must walk until the next encounter.
- The color of the tile you land on determines the encounter pool. There are 5 sets of 4 monsters.
- In the battle, you have to bet some of your HP to attack. Depending on whether you win the letter-catching minigame, the damage is dealt to either the enemy or yourself.
- The minigame has you (the red square) collect letters of a given word. Note that only the next letter of the word can be collected; colliding with any others causes the minigame to fail.
- Once you've caught more monsters, use the Z key in the overworld to swap your active monster. The last viewed one will be used in battle.

I really enjoyed the vibe! :) The rules were hard to grasp at first, but once I got it the mechanics were fun to explore.
This game is awesome! It's just absolutely oozing with personality. The mix of bullet hell with monster-catching works tremendously well. The style and mechanics of the game feel like the kind of twist verysoftwares fans have come to appreciate with these projects. There's certainly a lot of strategic depth here for how simple and easy-to-grasp the gameplay is. It feels odd that there's no reward for defeating other monsters, but it's understandable as this game was made in less than two weeks. Well done!
this is still one of my favorite comments on itch. thank you for brightening up my life!
Of course man! The praise is well deserved. Keep it up!
