Cool game. I played it around 5 minutes trying to defeat him.Graphics aren't bad and audio sounds good.Also the game fits the theme.Good job!

haha cool graphics and fun gameplay. Definitively nails the theme! Congrats on the entry

The game gets a little tedious. Having the devil actually talk with vocals and have varying dialogue would have made it more engaging. I liked the artwork and the music was good.

I had fun playing it for a while. Does get quite repetitive, but I geuss thats hard to solve in 48 hours. Good job on the polish and the graphics. Works well.!

Really cool idea and match the theme very well. I like the graphics and music a lot.

Nice look to it. A bit too easy to get huge life span maybe, was hoping for maybe some more mechanics into it. Good work!

The idea is good to bet with you life. Something that could be interesting is to bet with more life. The maximum of 50 years is too low.

simple but nice game! played to the end.

A nice game which fits well with the theme. I ended up with 900 years in my first playthrough :)

@julienlussiez - in testing I was racking up a lifespan well into multiple centuries even with a 50 year max bet - how long do you want to live for anyway??? :laughing:

Nice game, but can be a bit repetitive and there is little incentive to take risks with the amount of life that you bet. The music is nice and simple, and the animations are good, as well as the connections to the theme. Can be seen as commentary on the effects of real world gambling.

julienlussiez 2019-04-30 23:30

Haha, yes it's true. But at some point, I wanted to bet thousands years of my life, it sounds crazy.

Nice little game! Gets repetitive after the first 10 cards or so, but it was enjoyable till then

lola 2019-04-30 23:35

Haha j'adore ce jeu, simple et efficace, l'hud est propre, l'ambiance et la musique sont cool, tres chouette !

zubspace 2019-04-30 23:36

Works alright. I like the simple howto inside of the game. Would like to play this in irl in Vegas.

cnatalo 2019-04-30 23:37

Pretty cool, i tried to stay with 666 years at the end of game. I hope you add later more mechanics into it! Keep with good work ;D

dani-desa 2019-05-01 00:30

Cool I reached 1146 years!

Love the mood and and art style. The gameplay felt a bit too easy, like a lower stakes black jack since you are able to bet lower for lower confidence and bet higher for higher confidence guesses. Nice entry

20 cards to go and I'm already looking forward to another 300 years! Nice little higher/lower game with catchy tune.Screenshot at 2019-05-01 19-36-57.png

raphael-maia 2019-05-01 21:50

simple and interesting concept, i totally owned that devil though

oivin-f 2019-05-02 17:04

Got up to 900 years. Pretty fun idea if a little repetitive after a while. The devil should start cheating when you get the better of him!

meskaline 2019-05-04 10:15

Nice and neat game. Clean graphics and straightforward game play and theme adaptation. GJ!

deathbysnail 2019-05-05 22:48

Cool!

solah 2019-05-06 19:20

Good game with a good mood and music but it is too easy to win and it's a bit long to draw all the cards.

Good job anyway :)
