How does the game fit the theme?
The game features gambling with your Player's stats. That can most definitely go wrong. It can also go pretty well though.

Save YourselfIt took 2 attempts for an invincible strategy. Pump in luck > 100 and you become invincible! It's a very cool concept, like in the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

If We Had Another ChanceGreat idea. I would love to see more games experimenting with this idea of gambling your stats. I think it could work well in a lot of genres. Definitely something that I could see being the main hook of a larger game.

Nowhere to beI had a lot of fun playing The Gambler. The risk of loosing it all on a pitch and toss is great. The player tossing cards(??) was a nice addition. Simple and effective.

Battle ArenaGambling stats is one hell of a great idea! Cool art style, beautiful background art and fun gameplay. It was hard to understand where the player should be located to dodge the bullets, but the gambling part made me play it again and again. Great!

Three Little PigsCool game, would be nice if I could shoot the other way by just clicking that way instead of having to turn my player around
