What a silly game lol. I'm pretty bad at poker but I still found it very fun! Lots of combinations were possible, too.

Developer

Yeah, don't worry, I found the bot pretty tough to keep up with in terms of point count as well. Even though I gave it a very simple-minded strategy, I think the fact that it perfectly spots every flush and straight makes it a strong contender, especially if you're not scrutinizing every hand carefully.

so fun! i have no clue how to play poker but this game taught me a lot, next time i play i'll pull out some gather the magicking cards for extra points lol

Developer

Thanks! I really wanted to have some kind of deck-building system, or a "create your own rule" system for each card, but that was WAYYY out of scope lol

Neat little story! I had trouble understanding how to dismiss the dialogue boxes at first. 

Developer

Yeah, that's one of those little things that slipped through the cracks while trying to get the game to a playable state before the deadline. I definitely would've added a "Click here to continue" in the corner of the dialogue boxes or something like that. Thanks for playing!

Developer

Update: Music should be working now, and I also changed the Play button so that it doesn't do anything when there's nothing in the play area, so players figuring out the game don't get penalized for clicking it at first.

I liked it, not sure if you can win, but it's pretty neat, wish wild cards would work in runs though

Developer

I wanted to add a win condition after that final big card gets played by the opponent, but unfortunately didn't have time. So no, there's no winning, currently. I may expand on the idea in the future, though. What issue with the wild card were you having, though? It seemed to work when I tested it. The sorting is just janky.

Never mind, I totally goofed. Your game is fine. I had to look at the poker rules

because I play Rummy, and I thought 3 cards of the same suit in sequential order would

go together, but I was wrong, sorry.

Aside from me not knowing how to play poker properly, your game was very fun

Fun little game! I’ll be sneaking a playset of Exodia into my next poker game too.

Thanks! That was actually one of the things we wanted to add, but didn't have time. It was originally going to be the "I Win" condition at the end of that first pass through the deck.

Developer (1 edit)

I'd like to apologise for the sound issue in the web build.  I've made some mistake that's going to be fixed tomorrow.
