I really enjoyed this one and it is well implemented and well thought out amazing job
Smart take on the theme ! I love deck building games, so hit the spot. However, what does "Brooding""means ? Happens every single turn !
fascinating card mechanics, i really liked the concept of the negative cards and the anxieties they represent weighing on the mind of someone trying to impress on a first date. a lot of the rules could have been communicated better within the gameplay itself, like the conversation topic, or when brooding triggers. neat overall to see the interactions of a date represented in such a way though!
This was a fun concept! Turn-based conversations like this are an underexplored type of storytelling mechanic so it was cool to see in a game jam. I like how the cards that align with the date's interests get bonuses. The motion graphics also made the game feel pretty polished. I don't feel like I fully grasped what the right strategy was supposed to be for handling the bad cards. I also ran into a bug where I couldn't select another date after the first round. Overall, it was a really good entry. I'd be interested in seeing a fully fleshed out version of a game like this!
So lovely at style! Bit I completely failed my date
Lovely concept, with some very interesting card game rules! Loved the single discard use and the $3 that you have at your disposal, it would be super interesting to see some deckbuilding elements, cards that plays with those verbs. Had a hard time with Angela after 20, I guess this was the worst date I ever had. Congratulations on the submission, great work!FinalHand.png
I'm amazed that you managed to realize this idea, the graphics are perfect and the gameplay is nice.
Wow! This is very clever. I wish i could see the description of the girl i picked throughout the battle, i cant recall if there any topics to stay away from other than the minus cards. Very cool game!
I love the concept of dating and summoning your pickup lines lol, but I somehow spend all of my money and then've gotten a grab a meal card resulting into a game crash, Good game over all I love it its great! Keep it up guys, maybe add some sound effects, but overall congrats!
Very creative, and it was fun dating various beautiful gals. Sadly it froze when I got 23 points with Tina. Not sure what happened — perhaps it is just low memory on my system. Regardless, this is an engaging game — well done.
Well made and fun game! The difficulty balance was just right, it was difficult but not impossible. And it was always very clear what was going on and how the different modifiers interacted, thanks to the nice animations. I also really liked the theme and mood of the setting, there were hints of a fun world of witchcraft.
Really had a ton of fun you should be proud! Game play was really enjoyable, with a few polishes here and there it would be steam ready!
Really beautiful game with a fun concept! I can't tell if it's hard or I'm just terrible at it but either way I want to play more and get better at it!
Took me a while to work out why things brooding kept appearing, and also wasn't clear that I was supposed to date one person until the heart was full rather completing one date with every person. Although this was mostly due to a glitch where I tried to click on a person for a second date and the whole game stopped working :disappointed:
Once I got the hang of it though, I managed to work out a few strategies to be successful, making sure I saved my Discard for the right time, and sometimes tactically used negative cards to make sure the hand I was discarding contained as many of my negative deck as possible.
The biggest thing I think this game needed was some music, just something inoffensive that might play in a cafe, because the silence didn't really fit with the rest of the vibe of the game. But that's mostly just polish, so otherwise you did a great job with this!
I uploaded my playthrough to YouTube, I hope it's useful to you in some way!

Very cool concept! The balance needs work however, as I understood after my (miserable) first date that I just had to never play the "issue" cards and let them stack the brooding modifiers. I'd have liked to see more retorts from the witches too! Great work.
