Simple and super fun! Though I noticed you can pretty much breeze through it without too much thinking. Might be worth tightening up the difficulty a bit?
that's definitely on the roadmap if we keep building this project. the final 24 hours was a mad rush to implement more cards. when we noticed it was a little easy, we agreed too easy would be more fun than too hard.
I'm finally out of debt! QAQ
Really fun concept and great execution. I liked it. Good job.
This was a lot of fun, very addictive ;)
I'd definitely come back to it with a bit more polish, keep up the good work <3
High Score: $22400
I paid off my debt!!
I love how snappy the game is. I feel like it was a good choice to not have animations, because it would have slowed down gameplay? My only critique is that in subsequent runs I wanted to quickly slam cards and, without iconography, it was difficult to skim for cards I wanted (I needed to read the whole text each time). Overall though I adored this game; it was unexpected how quickly I got invested LOL. Great job!
Icons were one of those items on the to do list that we just ran out of time for, perhaps in a post jam update. Thanks for playing and the feedback!
Interesting game concept ! I'd say what the game misses is just more polish and more juice with the interactions, other than that it's very solid
The concept of using your time/life to pay for game-actions is new in a card battler I believe. I think the short time of the jam got to you, but you should definitely continue to concept!
Interesting take on the score-based rogue-lite
About 6 moves in I started understanding the depth and strategy I could start pulling and I realized that if I let myself I could keep playing this for hours trying to get a good score. Really cool idea and well done!
super creative interpretation of the theme, loved the concept. The gameplay was enjoyable (won on my third attempt 💔)
I am rich!!! Thank you for your game, very creative idea, i would love to see how this would expand to a full game!
Score: 44800
Very fun and creative! My poor decision-making unfortunately leaves me in eternal debt, though...
Really fun! I ended the game with $274800 in profit because I picked up tons of odds gods, #s for #s and second leases on life
The idea is great. It was a lot of fun to try and make as much money as possible once my debt was paid off. I wish that it was a little more apparent what is and isn't firing when you make a purchase because them all appearing simultaneously over the text of the cards was too much visual noise to parse.
Great take on the theme.
This was a great little game that I feel horrendously bad at. I can't tell if that's on-theme or a skill issue on my end.
It's certainly unbalanced but it is winnable!
The concept is playful and fun, also the glowing effects look impressive. Maybe it would be better with some nice graphics added to it.
Very interesting and fun concept for a game!
A really cool idea! It makes you think and really engage with the concept. A fantastic take on the theme. It would be incredible with better graphics and sound. Instead of pasting the story onto the main menu, perhaps dialogues could have been considered.
