Who's the Boss Now? (web)

Who’s The Boss Now?

Who’s The Boss Now? is a reverse deckbuilder roguelike inspired by Slay the Spire, where you are the boss defending your lair — whether it’s a dungeon, crypt, or ruined castle.

Knights, adventurers, rival bosses, and “heroes” invade your territory seeking gold, glory, or revenge. But just because you’re the boss now doesn’t mean you’ll stay that way. Build your deck, position your defenses, and destroy the raiders before they destroy you.

⚔️ Features

• Tactical Positioning: Move between front, middle, and rear stances once each turn to shift your block, damage output, and strategy.

• Static Positional Buffs: Each stance offers unique passive bonuses (and penalties), encouraging adaptation.

• Mouse & Touch Friendly UI: Built for seamless play whether you’re clicking or tapping.

• Modifier & Status System: Cards and positions now apply consistent flat bonuses. Damage and block scale dynamically based on your current stance.

• Improved Animations & Visual Feedback: Includes tween-based movement, walk cycles, and hit animations.

🧠 Known Issues (Current Jam Build)

• Some card effects are still being fine-tuned.

• Single-target cards require precise selection; missing your target will still consume mana.
