Quite a cool game; try making some better graphics, that smooth together better.

@Arcus Thanks for the feedback! This was a solo project and my first game jam so I think I overextended a bit mechanically and had to use my placeholder art in the final product. Besides adding more waves, art and sound are the main changes I want to make for a commercial release in the future.
First jams can be confusing; trying to find the right mix between design and programming can lead to over ambitious projects, or over-engineered minigames.
@arcus Yeah, I didn't realize how overambitious my project had become until halfway through day 2 and at that point simplifying the mechanics to remove card combos would have been boring, so I opted for mechanical depth over polish. This was a lot of fun so I'll remember to keep my ideas smaller for future jams. What I really wasn't prepared for is the drop of productivity when you've been working on the same game for 6+ hours in a row and you start to lose concentration.
