ANIMAL JOUSTING

========================

Animal Jousting is a party-style card game for 3-5 players. There are 5 types of cards:

Mount -- your jousting vehicle. Can be S/M/L and gives you POWER.

Rider -- S/M/L, can only ride on mounts their size or BIGGER. Riders have 1/2/3 INTELLIGENCE, as well as a weakness and a strength.

Weapon -- Requires 1/2/3 Intelligence. Grants POWER. Will be of damage type Poking/Distracting/Food

Draw -- drag onto the discard pile to draw more cards

Buff -- single-use combat buff

If your character is weak to your opponent's weapon, you get -3 POWER.

If your character is strong to your opponent's weapon, you get +3 POWER.

If your opponent is strong to your weapon, they get +3 POWER.

If your opponent is weak to your weapon, they get -3 POWER.

MAY THE BEST JOUSTER WIN

(Sadly we ran out of time before getting the actual joust animation working, but the game should be playable and winnable).

========================

post-compo fixes: just a few crashes and typos. memory is kinda leaky (I think it's the tween engine I use), so I lowered the win condition to 7 wins instead of 10

BONUS: added a post-compo print & play version into our github repo just for fun: https://github.com/SimianLogic/ld32-animaljousting/blob/master/card_exports/Animal%20Jousting%20Printables.pdf
