This is a very well designed and polished game. The idea is also very creative. The animation and particle effects made the game super juicy.

One detail I really admire is that each card is unique hand drawn, even the same +3 cards have different drawings. 

It shows how much heart the dev has put into this game. Great Job!

Apparently made one of my friends mad but it was fun overall

This was a totally engaging game that made us think about algebraic equations and numbers to strategize and deck build! Fantastic job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! It was a blast to watch you guys play!!

Phenomenal entry with one of the most creative uses of the premise that I've seen. What a way to make math fun!

Submitted(+2)

I'm going to need to  come back here to finish this game off soon, what a wild ride! The effects of the boss introductions were incredible and the general vibe is perfect!

ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE! I love the music, the bosses feel epic as hell and since I’m actually not that bad at math, I even get to do some skill expression LMAO

Edit: You made this in LÖVE?!? THAT’S SO COOL!!!

Developer(+1)

Holly! That is the highest score so far! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and yes Love2D was great to work with! For a UI heavy game like this I think I will prefer it over more traditional engines any day.

i love math card games and this absolute gem of the jam!

Very unique and very challenging! Best card game of the jam so far.

Only criticism is that some of the UI text is small and thus hard to read

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and the feedback! The text size does seem to be a common pain point.

Super creative! Could use some kind of tutorial, but once I got the main mechanics, I managed to get very far (Round 30+). Though I still don't completely understand what the bosses do.

Developer(+2)

WOAH! Impressive!! A proper tutorial and more clear, polished  bosses will definitely be included in our post jam update! So hope to see you then too! Loved your take on theme as well! Really creative! 

Submitted(+1)

The bossfights are CHILLS! Get over your fear of maths and play this! I just press random cards and it works out anyway!

Developer

Hahaha happy to hear that we were able to make math fun for you!

This game is great. Super satisfying hitting a massive divide to go from a high number to almost 0. Also the music is such a banger. I was vibing the entire game. I think the normal song kind of shares a leitmotif with the boss music? Actually fire. We need a soundtrack upload. 

Great work on your submission.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you!! Great catch on the music, the normal and boss music do share the same motifs! We started with a big song concept around the idea of countdown then developed multiple genres for it. 

We are unsure of any soundtrack upload as we dont really know how to approach it at the moment. But we will definitely consider it while working on the full release version of this game! Thank you for the kind words!

THIS is absolutely incredible. I loved playing it so much, that now I am addicted. Who knew maths could be so fun? So polished, music fits to the gameplay perfectly, everything balanced, how did you do this in such a short time??? Anyways, I got to 135889. Is that good? :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your kind words! It took a couple of sleepless nights and 135K is pretty good!

Submitted

The game is absolutely cool and addictive! Congrats on such a great submission!

Developer

Thank you!!

Submitted(+1)

Ok, I didn’t understand anything at first. But once I did… boy, it became so addictive! Nice game. I’ll probably replay it!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!! Hope you'll look out for our update after the jam ends! Do be warned that it might become even more addictive :)

Got to the 2nd boss, failed use the new card correctly. Had a lot of fun. Nice work on the juice. 10/10 would play again.

Developer

Thanks, we spent a lot of dev time on the feel and it seems it paid off
