I like the concept. felt new to me. a bit of explanation at start would help me understand it better.
Thank you! Totally agree on the explanation part. Barely managed to get what's there working in time, but I want to work on some sort of tutorial for after the jam. Any suggestions on how to make it? I always feel like it must be complicated to get it right😅
I like the decision space of this game. Its not as easy as picking what you want, you have to pick what you don't want to happen at the same time. I did have a hard time with the font chosen and i think with some styling this game can look very polished. It definitely needs some sort of tutorialization and perhaps some visual feedback during a mission to communicate what's happening. Idea is good, game jam time probably put a plug on how polished it could be.
Thank you for playing and commenting!! I'm glad to know you liked that part of the game design!
As for the font, may I ask which one was troublesome? Was it the one in the cards or the one in the UI? For the cards, it was hard to find something that could fit names and be fully readable, so the whole thing might need some redesign to fit things better
About everything else, totally agree. Some things I wanted to do but didn't have time. I'll try to work on an improved version, having all these in mind :)
I like the challenges the game presents and I was excited to play and try it out. However, I don't think the game gives the player any options to overcome those challenges. I didn't feel like I could do anything but play cards with high reliability. And even then, I still got betrayed.
Thanks for your feeback :) Noted
Hi, thank you for trying our game! There's some strategizing that can help you win (other than the one you tried), but it's true it's left too much to luck.
I wanted to make something more balanced, with a couple more features that would've added a lot more play, but sadly I wouldn't have managed to code it in time.
About still getting betrayed... it's kind of intentional for the theme and the game's lore/context. It's supposed to bug the player a bit. I understand the frustration, though. If you want to share any other feedback or ideas on how to improve it, they're very welcome!
cool game, really fun but took a while to understand the rules.
Noted! Thanks for playing and for the feeback!
Thank you! Any way you think we could improve that? Is there anything we can add to the page to help other players?
before the game starts you could put a instructions and rules pop up.
