How does your game fit the theme?
The original interpretation was about when you combo off in a card game and start looping through your deck. That was a bit abstract so we themed the narrative around a time loop too to be safe.

I spend
onetwo hours on your game instead of reviewing other game jam. I hope you are happy about yourself.You must be evil to put a leaderboard on such an RNG based game.... but I love it and I will appear on that damn leaderboard someday.
Amazing game, why do you have so little rating :') I hope you'll be showcase in the GMTK video, definitly a gem of this years game jam. What a clean incremental builder implementation :o
Oh.. Everything is so polish I actually forgot it was made in only 4 days... Great art (do you hear n*****do ninja in the roof..?), great soundtrack and engaging game. dunno what else I could add.
Edit: I cracked the code :p
I love this. This jam was so good for a deckbuilder, and I think you killed it.
Wow! This was really fun! I had trouble in the beginning until I realized what the power-ups were lol.
Nice one! I’m impressed at the folks getting sub-40 loops
I enjoyed this one a lot. Sometimes i had cards get behind each other but that was the only bug I found. Thanks for sharing :D
Really fun and interesting game! Found it a little slow in the beggining, but as soon as I understood how powerfull the powerups actually were (instead of buying new cards) I was totally rolling. Great work!
Wow!! I like the idea. Reverse zelda is real. Also escape from matrix idea is good for loop concept. I have a weakside for card games, because I work on these games too. If you want to try other games, pls feel free to try our game Loop Cuisine.
Great game! Addictive and interesting
This is definitely the game I’ve spent the most time on. Didn’t expect to get so hooked on it. Still didn’t get close to 26 moves. The leaderboard is a great addition. I don’t think I would’ve spent nearly as much time if it weren’t there. Good work on the game, loved the simple concept with some replayability.
This was such a fun game! I completed it for the first time in 69 loops (nice). The game loop is so fun and it just makes me want to keep playing and get a better score. I also love the visuals and the concept gives tears of the kingdom with the glitch text and the Link-looking hero.
Very enjoyable game ! Love it !
Truly incredible ! I think it's the game i've played the longest so far, and I'm 99% sure I will play it again to beat my score (the leaderboard was a great idea).
This one is a total banger - great idea, great execution, and super polished and cohesive. Incredible work!!
This was absolutely good, a nice casual but engaging game. A bit like balatro jn the sense that it had cards and suddenly removed an hour from my day :]
Great game! I like how it combines the "matrix style" with the more cozy setting, and the main loop is very engaging! Only nitpick is I wish the card upgrade animation was a little quicker, but since you can keep taking actions while it happens it's not really a big deal. Well done!
Fantastic Game!
Finished it in 70!
Loved the game loop, really makes you think on how you can improve.
I would play this again to find the best strategy
Okay, I played this a ton almost 70 attempt just cuz I wanted to see the final animation and break strategy. Good gameplay loop and addictive! Nice job.
Great game, it was very fun to break the pig,
Your game is sooo nice I spend so much time
Thanks, the artist really smashed it :)
