This witch is so cute ! ๐Ÿ’–
The game is nice and works well. The additions are original and a real plus to the genre.
Would have love to see the card better as you worked on their design.
And your idea of implementing tool tips next on the different buttons instead of a big block of text is good.
Congratulations for your second jam participation, good job ๐ŸŒˆโœจ

A really cool arcade RPG adaptation of Blackjack with a Halloween setting! I really enjoyed playing it and trying to come up with strategies :)

The music is giving me spooky berlin club vibes which oddly goes  really well with the gambling aspect of it lol. The reaction style witch reminds a lot of the spooky casino in Ni No Kuni - it's a really fun way to convey what's going on in the game!

Not fully sure when the game is over though so  maybe having multiple levels with different opponents or some other explicit type of progression would really hook the player seeing as the loop of playing already goes so quick and is inherently fun. 

Well done!

Nice take on the genre with some nice addition. 

I really liked the art on the witch!

Not usually a fan of big wall of text to learn the mechanics, but it seemed necessary and wasn't too bad.

Good job!

In an ideal world, I would of added tooltips when floating over the abilities but didn't have time or the knowledge to implement in time. Thank you for playing!

Interesting character, a cross between a witch and an Octoberfest maiden.  When I saw the name Black o' Lantern, I wasn't sure what to expect.  Good job with the Blackjack game.  I guess I'll need to go read to find out what those other options do. ( transfigure, spell, dispel, and trinket ).
