Use of the limitation
In my game the limitation is incorporated through a coin flip the player can do, which then determines whether the card they get is a positive or a negative trait card. Luck plays a role to make the coin more than just a simple 50/50. The goal is to survive as many waves as possible, getting special cards and avoiding bad luck!

solid entry, i really liked the visuals and the music : the concept is very efficient when it comes to the theme of this jam ! nice work
Thanks so much! Really glad you enjoyed playing the game. Happy jammin!
A very enjoyable game. I managed to buy all the cards and make it to round 200, as I found focusing on health early on helps in having longer runs. It wasn't clear at first if luck was having any impact, but did become very clear once it got higher.
It wasn't really clear what shuffling the deck does though, and since that was the only thing to use luck on, it becomes almost impossible to lose at max luck I feel. Additionally, I feel like the special cards should have different prices, as some seem to be stronger than others. I also felt like felt like the price to buy health was a little too high as you can easily gain health just through playing, if you choose to.
Overall though, its a very solid card game.
Thanks for playing, I'm glad you had a good time! Amazing how you got to round 200, seems like you found the strat! :)
I appreciate the advice, the game could definitely do with some rebalancing. I'm thinking to update it now that the jam is over so ill take those into account. Keep on jammin!
Hah, enjoy this music, fun game)
Thanks a lot! :)
I really love the pixel art style! The game concept is great,awesome job!
Thanks so much, really appreciate you enjoyed the game!
Very fun game :D Definitely one of my favorite ideas in the jam so far! It was very well executed, too. Keep it up :D
Thanks so much! Really glad you had fun with it :)
. . . Took me 85 turns to buy 1 card . . .
Oh wow, to be fair the balancing is definitely something to improve on but congrats on getting to 85 that is super impressive!
Thanks for giving it a go!
I hate that raccoon... I got him each time he appeared and he ended my run at round 23 T-T
Cool little game :3
Thank you! The raccoon is definitely a little menace XD
Round 23 is good, thanks for playing!
It's so cool!
I love the mini arts )
And the idea of managing the resources with random and luck is nice and play well.
Also the store refreshes the basic gameplay - nice decision!
Really appreciate it, the pixel art took some time but it was worth it! Thanks for giving it a go!
The idea is very cool! I enjoyed playing! The graphics of the game is very cool, correspondence to the theme and the limitation is there, and they are competently adapted! Very cool game (Played 25 rounds :D)
Thank you for the kind words! I am super happy that you enjoyed the little game I made, 25 rounds is very good :)
Wow, so simple yet so addictive, definitely one of my favorites, you did a great job!
Also, I was able to buy the whole deck so I guess I 100% it hehe
Thank you so much, I am super glad you found it fun and enjoyable! :D
Way to go! I count that as the true 100% so congrats on surviving for so long (sadly there is no achievement). No doubt you were in the high round counts
Really fun but getting food was really brutal
Thanks a lot! Definitely the hardest part of the game
Fun game, the art for all of the cards is really nice! I struggled to accumulate food but felt the game was pretty forgiving with respect to taking my health :)
Thanks so much! Yeah the early game is quite brutal, glad you had fun with it though. :)
Great work! I need more luck though :D
I really appreciate it! Definitely tough to get started when its early into the run but glad you enjoyed your time!
Love it. Had to take all of my tactical skills to play. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for giving it a go, glad you enjoyed it! Hope you made it far!
Cool, pretty hard. Feels like those odds are stacked against me!
Thanks for playing! :) It can be quite difficult, as the early game is a 50/50 coin flip but becomes a bit easier as you progress
