How does your game fit the theme?
The game revolves around getting rid of your deck (or to put it another way, counting down the number of cards in your draw pile) before a clock counts down to midnight

I like the idea of this game. I do feel the fact that the only goal is burning through your deck makes the optimal strategy a little obvious; just draft the cards that will eat up the deck fastest and keep playing them until the game becomes unwinnable. Still, a deckbuilder is an ambitious direction to go for a jam game. I'd love to see what you do with this game post-jam!

Brrreak it DownUnique interpretation of the theme. I really liked the game's atmosphere and art! Unfortunately I ran into a bug where my last card vanished but the clock kept ticking :(

Kill the Count!tbh I suck at card games and getting the rules. This still was a very cool idea. The atmosphere and the music were really good. I liked what I played

Holy Sheet!You know, I also thought about the Doomsday Clock while we were brainstorming our game 😂
I like the planning ahead you have to do and thinking through the possibilities of what will happen when you pick a card. If the UI were cleaned up a bit and more interesting cards/variety was added, this would be a lot of fun. Good job!

Lost Cycles - Post 4The game's pretty difficult for me, but i like the artstyle especially the color choice! Red and yellow are a really cool color combination. I like the combo when the cards are automatically discarded but i wish it was faster, but other than that it's pretty well done! Good job!

In Split Second (Game Jam Edition)Liked the idea of basically milling your deck. Lots of things could be added for high risk/reward. Tho I would not put the cards on the clock as it doesnt allow the player to see how many steps they have left on the clock when you dicard a high amount of them.

ChronoShipI had the cards fall on the clock to try to add some visual interest so you weren’t just looking at a big yellow circle the whole game, but I do see how it could clutter visibility too much later on. Maybe if i have cards show up in the background behind the clock in future I could get the best of both worlds
I like the creativity but got quite confused on what I was doing and how everything worked. With some polish I think it can be really fun

Ring out the yearLove the concept, really cool to see how cards play off each other and it was fun to try and create good combos. Great music, it really fit the style of the game.

Capturing MemoriesWhilst the art is fairly basic, the concept and creativity are very strong. Really fun idea and engaging deck builder. Nice work

Bowling For HumanityI was also a little confused as to how the gameplay worked with cards adding/discarding. The art/music was cool
