Got a blackscreen, with hearing the "Chronocards" voice in all different pitch levels... Can't really click anything. I run windows 7 x64.

Seems like a little card game parody. Not much replay value but still enjoyed it quite a bit!

A 10 second card game? That's madness!

I didn't read the card effects, but somehow still had fun with it. Pretty cool.

This is the first virtual card game that I have actually enjoyed. Very nice take on the theme as well.
Never got to see the cat in the screen shot though...
So yeah, it was great fun, but relied a bit too much on luck. I didn't really notice that when I was winning though, because then it was of course because of my awesome strategic skillz ;D

I'm not sure if I'm just dosy, but I really couldn't work out what to do!

Pretty nice fast-paced card game, which is not something you hear everyday, really nice!
Although playing an entire game "in 10 seconds" is a bit mental, but surprisingly fun

I err, had no clue what I was doing. I mashed keys and won. If I did nothing, I lost. Is this a life lesson?

Wow that game is quite a challenge, very hard. I did manage to win once, but I think it was pure luck (it's a card game after all). Some nice elements, but I miss audio, it would probably bring to a whole new level.

Says something about a dll missing and it doesn't run.

A game with time as a resource? That's a very intriguing concept. I am not sure if a card game was a good choice though - I have no time to read my cards, so I mostly just mash all the numbers and then space.

A tabletop card game with keyboard play? You sir or madam win the cookie!

The 10 second limit seems a bit fast to get to know the cards at first. Perhaps another mechanic whereby you get a chance to review what you have in hand before the game starts.

The pause and add time cards are truly good played at the right time. yay!

I am duly impressed you got the rules engine down, and dig the programmers art.

I like to see this evolve with nice card faces and a table image.

Fun game. Seemed too fast paced for any real strategy.
