How does the game fit the theme?
Every round, all players see the same cards and pick at the same time. The high-value cards are tempting, but if a rival(s) grabs the same one, the points get split. You have to guess what everyone else is going to do, so you question whether or not do you trust them to pick something else, or are they just as greedy as you?
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The applause is a stock sound effect, but everything else was made by the team.

It's nice and simple. Kinda easy if you go mainly for the bigger numbers but I enjoyed playing it.
Very easy to pick up and fun to play, just wish there were more rules as I feel like I mastered the strategy too quickly! Amazing art as well, great job to all involved!
Simple, effective and charming = very good! If the turns first had each player choosing and declaring their choices (telling the truth or not) and then, only after this phase, revealing their actual choices, this could lead to a interesting tabletop game taking on the prisoner's dilemma. Nonetheless, very good entry!
Good implementation of the theme. Simple, clear, nothing superfluous, well done
Simple but honestly really fun!
I love the character designs they are adorable!
Fun game, but it's really really really simple. Like UNBELIEVABLY SIMPLE. I beat the game three times in a row ( first try ), and I wasn't trying to win the first time. Other than that, I liked the art and GUI.
I really enjoyed the perspective of the game and the characters. It was a lot of fun! My luck was so weird though — all three times I played, I somehow ended up with the exact same score as everyone else 😂. Overall, great job! I’m looking forward to the updates after the jam!
Super easy to understand and jump into immediately. Good execution. Not super tightly fit to the jam theme.
The most interesting aspect of rock-paper-scissors like guessing systems is trying to understand and outthink a human opponent. So with bots, they need to have some sort of human tendencies to make this more than just a random guessing game. If they do have tendencies and habits, it's hard to associate playing patterns with the other players because it's not easy to tell who picked what card.
Overall, really solid entry and one of the easiest games to jump right into.
this is so cute! I hope it gets like a couch co-op or online multiplayer feature so we can play with friends!!
