As someone who has played a lot of go, I really enjoyed this! The concept is fun and the characters are cute . Would put dozens of ravenous hours into a full version if it was ever made.
like many others i am also bad at weiqi in a way that is possibly ancestrally disappointing. was really feeling the bomb collar and the spirits of my forefathers on my neck. 10/10 would play weiqi with yinan again
i loved this game so much! the characters are so fun and their designs were so cute, i just had to draw them! i love them! i drew this in like 20 minutes on a notepad lol
i would say more about the gameplay but i'm genuinely so trash at weiqi its not even funny
This speed dating game's kinda peculiar... And when did Washizu become so cute and nice?!
This is an amazing game. It's very polished, like a vertical slice game demo. I could see it being a new entry to the board game roguelite subgenre in the likes of Balatro and Aotenjo. I love the characters' designs and interactions.
I had to try 3 times to beat it because I'm not good at strategic positional thinking. The upgrades were very nice for me for a beginner like me to power through difficult starting positions and made the experience more enjoyable.
I used to play go a long time agom, so I was able to beat this first try with plenty of moves left to go, especially when I got the upgrade where remaining moves convert into life points for the game.
I think this could be expanded upon and turned into a more full-fledged baduk roguelike. Really cool proof of concept with a nice execution to it. I particularly like the animations at the start of each match, where Yìnan places multiple stones, while the board is shaking with some fun and frantic animated effects going off at the sides of the screen.
I also really appreciate the names with the tonal indicators. Very clearly this game was made with a love of weiqi. I really hope you can expand this into something larger and truly special. Best of luck to you, and thanks for the game!
I love go and have always wanted to play puzzles to get better but keep getting bored. This is such a fun twist to go puzzles with the theme, music, art, and upgrades. The AI is also hard enough that it punishes dumb moves but lenient to let me try out risky moves and let me fix bad moves.
I tried playing weiqi a few days ago and couldn't wrap my head around having living groups, so this was pretty timely and really helped me figure it out! I hope they'll keep playing together without the bomb collar too.

Loved this but how did you manage to make a so polished game in 4 days?! It feels like a complete game already

This was a blast to play. So much so, I got sad seeing the countdown collar near 100! I'm definitely going to be replaying this more in the future!
