Awesome idea I love the meta ness of having to crunch your team members in a game jam game lol. It took me a sec to figure it out but once I did I really enjoyed the risk reward side of things great job! The art style and little animations were great too.
I loved this game! The gameplay was super fun and the graphics and music made everything even more exciting.
Wow, that's a very complex game to make in one week-end :o Also took me one run to really grasp the concept, but it's really fun! Very flavorful and polished. I tried 3-4 times but could never beat the dinosaur, so frustrating :laughing:
What a nice blackjack hack! Very visually appealing, I love the testers and the characters on the cards, it's all so charming! The theming is smart, very meta, very cute. Everything about the visuals is incredibly polished. And this is such a complex game as well, there is so much work put into this!! You did an incredible job.
Some mechanical/game feel feedback: Adding cards to the deck was slightly weird as is because you add cards maybe twice or thrice in a run, so you can't really build any synergies. I did enjoy getting a holiday card once run, really strong, felt good. Not being able to check the deck was slightly frustrating, because you can't really make informed decisions when calculating risk/reward with each draws or when adding cards. The malus of poor management felt rather opaque too, and it was frustrating that it would add bad cards to my deck while I didn't see what I was doing wrong - bad cards that made me lose, and it kind of felt like I had had no control over it, which felt kind of bad. I'm slightly frustrated overall, but it's mostly because I crave for more now that I caught a glimpse of what this game could be.
Clarifying those elements, maybe adding slightly more control to them, a way to earn money, maybe a shorter card-addition cycle/some ways to have more control over the deck, and well, I'd buy this as an actual blackjack roguelike deckbuilder now! Even if it's short, like, it's not that far from something I'd actually buy for maybe 2-5$. Thank you for this great entry!
This game is really good, good art, fun gameplay, the theme was there. It was a bit hard to read the cards, a simple way to solve this could be when you click on a card it will show up in larger scale, but it is a small thing that does not drag down the game.
So I really loved this game when it comes to the creativity. I see you probably have experienced some production and us who did as well just know how it feels haha. Loved the mood, loved the simplicity, graphics. Just a really good simple game! :)

There is a bug: If click "Send to playtest" when some cards are moving, they'll stop and stay at the place.
This one is really fun. I adore the style and the music is so chill and really hits the right vibes. This is a really good job!
Love the art style!
Very nice idea! Needed a moment to understand the game, some kind of ingame help text would have been good, but after that I enjoyed it. :) The art is very nice too. I like it!
Just a very small note though: The game doesn't scale correctly on an ultra-wide screen (2560x1080). It uses the full width of the screen, but cuts of the top and bottom of it.
I liked the game, it's very luck-based (I have hilariously bad luck) but it feels fine. It has a few bugs, for example if I used the game planning card and passed, I got to see the top card of the last deck (before it was shuffled) and It was a bit annoying. Otherwise a great game, and I managed to beat it in 5 tries, so I'm pretty happy with my luck :)
really fun. I loved the art and the crunch moment with the pitch up thingy x)
Wow, this was a really fun entry! One of the highlights of this jam for me, for sure. the idea was simple enough to pick up quickly, but took some thought to master. (I did manage to beat it!) I really like the art here as well- the cards especially were fantastic, and everything felt like it fit together perfectly. If I had to give one piece of critical feedback, it's a tiny bit hard to read the effects on the card in smaller resolutions, or without fullscreening the game. Thanks for a fun game!
Really great job with this game! The art is wonderful, and I had a lot of fun playing. Very creative! ♥
I love it! So fun :)
Interesting concept! Loved how the music sped up during crunch time. I wasn't sure how I was going to lose until I ran out of money and went bankrupt!
Graphics are great!
Would be neat if you could get some upgrades other than new cards to your deck, like being able to increase the top number of the stress counter.
Nice twist on blackjack! Love the code descriptions on the card effects :D I feel like the red cards got introduced a bit fast, the moment I got the first one they kind of piled on me. The art is great all around, nice unified look!
Great idear, great music, great graphics. Just great :thumbsup:
