Very cool idea! Also a bit complicated a bit for me :) Is this game fully random? And why bush kills dog? :)
Well, the dog is just very curious about what's in the bush and runs away from you!
Oh, cool idea!
Very cool game, I don't know why but it somehow reminded me of buckshot roulette. The art's nice and gives me a sense of nostalgia somehow, nice!
I love card games, really liked the visuals!
The card hover feedback was super satifying! (if i'm nitpicking, it's missing a small sound on top of it but it's really great!) The game has great visuals too!
Thanks for the rating! I couldn't find a suitable sound for this, but maybe I will be able to later :)
Very cool setup and concept for a card game. Enjoyed the aesthetics of the cards and all the sound effects!
I found it a little frustrating to effectively be playing against RNG, as I felt a little unable to deploy any strategy beyond card-counting. For me, it's that strategy that makes me enjoy card games, as otherwise it's not really my genre. Also, I couldn't understand what the powerups did before using them which made me throw them away multiple times, haha But perhaps I missed something regarding both of these points?
Great execution!
In the future, we want to try to make it so that you can apply some strategy. Now there are items such as binoculars, which opens a random enemy card and an evil eye that shows the current hand of the enemy. At the moment, this is the only thing that will help you correctly arrange the cards. Well, you also need to remember which cards went and calculate your actions! Thanks for the rating!
game art and sound are perfect!! I totally enjoyed it.
Simple controls, simple cards and concept. The visuals and audio certainly create a sense of calm. Got a few bad rounds of rng and lost everything haha. Great job!
Thanks!
Super polished card game especially impressive for just a week of development!
The art style was absolutely stunning and really helped set the mood, along with the music (was very soothing). All the animations and card effects looked amazing! I loved how easy it was to pick up, but there was still plenty of depth to master.
The only thing that bothered me was I couldn't move a card once placing it down but after I learned that I just had to be more careful before placing one and it was a tad bit hard to see the cards at night time.
Fantastic work! I could easily see myself sinking hours into this.
Thanks! It's nice to hear that you liked it
I just spent 17 min playing this game 😂. Very addicting and very fun. I loved the visuals and the sounds are well done. Greate job.
(Edit) there is a small problem when it becaumes night time the whole screen becomes dark and the UI becomes a little hard to see. I think it would be better if you make only the background become dark.
Thanks for feedback! I'm already working on lighting for the night! It will be in the game in a future update.
I don't really like card games, but it's an amazing job. The art style is very pleasing to the eye, the music and sound effects are excellent. I was stuck for about 20 minutes. One of the best games on this game jam!
Very cool deck game, really well balanced, the artstyle is beautifull ! Wel done :)
i am 56th
Though the animation is simple, it's the smoothest thing I've ever seen.
Also, love this game. Nice!
OMG! Absolutely blowing my mind! This is a very cool game—I love it a lot!
Woo Sheep! Great game and haven't played any card game so far in this jam. I liked it.
1stuff need some intruduction for player in shop
2 player need more infomations to decide which card to put ,
game art and mood is perfect!!! love this game so much,really wish for a better version
Man this game reminds me of Buckshot Roulette where I really have to think of the odds of the wolf or the grass showing up, great game man keep it up <3
A really polished game. Great job! If you could save the game that would be great.
Very interesting concept. It felt like the game was too much favored to chance though, and it was unclear what the items do. Art is nice, and the game has a cool vibe
Really beautiful art, so many of my sheep were eaten :( But very cool
