Very fun game, played it for about an hour. Managed to kill the boss in 6 minutes on a run where I had 10 dynamite sticks ahah. Changes I'd make would be adding sound effects and maybe a longer soundtrack. But overall a very fun game.

Really fun and interesting game! Although I'm not good at it at all, I was still able to have a great time with it. As others have mentioned, it takes a bit to get used to the controls, but once you do, I think they work pretty well. I'd love to see how it looks after a bit of polish. Super impressive work, especially with Pygame!
I can't play the game, I can't find the download button, and neither run on browser
I apologise as i am on linux, and cannot play your game! if you make a linux build, however, i would be happy to play it!
Just use wine. sudo apt-get install wine(Debian based distros) sudo pacman -S wine(Arch based distros) in arch you have to enable multilib. If you can't install wine, just run the source code with python and pygame. to install pygame in linux, first install pip and then use `pip install pygame` in the command line
Hello there! The game was a bit confusing at first, but when I got the hang of it, it was actually quite fun. The "Escape" to open your card menu and "Enter" to select a card were a bit difficult to reach on my keyboard. I think "E" and "Space" might be better, as they are closer to the WASD keys. But overall, the game is pretty good. Using the cards to attack, teleport or jump is an interesting idea, I like it, and I think there is a lot of potential in this game. The art was pretty nice too. Well done!
Hey! Played the game for a bit and I can say there is a lot of potential in the idea you are working with here. The game can feel a bit oppressive at times with weapons being somewhat scarce and drops being random, but I really think the idea can be polished into something really interesting.
On a minor note, the movement in the menu feels a bit clunky with the movement inside it being reserved to A and D, I miss being able to go down a row, but this is just a nitpick.
Heyo! I saw your posts in the Community tab and felt your excitement :)
The game is a great effort so far!
I highly recommend looking over the controls. Using WASD, ESC and Enter was a bit confusing.
The Artstyle is cute! These arcady-type games with different weapons are one of my favorites.
Keep at it!
So far i couldn't beat it.
Some runs i have enough gun cards to actually defeat enemies, some runs i excluseively get teleport cards, that dont help much :)
For Controls maybe try out:
ESC (or Right Click?) => Bring up Card Menu
Click or Scroll to Select
Use Card with Left Click
Since you aim with the mouse, pressing Enter means taking your hands off WASD or the Mouse.
