После каждого проигрыша хочется попробовать снова. Я так пришёл в себя только после 5 попытки пройти 7-ой день.
Хотя меня преследует ощущение, что чего-то не хватает или всё играется слишком просто, мне всё равно нравится.
В общем и целом, получилось очень достойно.
Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad that you had fun :D
Yeah, it's true, the game relies more on luck than skill. But at the same time, with its slot-machine-like coin mechanics, it has that addictive effect.
I wanted to add more features like jokers from balatro but that would be too much content for 48 hours. So I focused on polishing over deep gameplay mech
Yeah, it would be better, but as I said, I decided to focus on polishing
Because initially I wanted to add jokers or coin abilities but it's too much for 48h
Because the demon is a collector, debt collector
And the metaphor of devils bargain
Но да, поработал очень чтобы игра ощущалась хорошо
Can I hire you as creative director? haha
Thank you for your feedback! :heart:
Anyway very good game, I like the ambiance and everything feel so polished. I'm not sure of what the coffee option do but it seems that everything was going better with it, but maybe a placebo effect :laughing:
Anyway, very good game, looks to me as a solid candidate for the top !
I think ill some more content for post-jam version -jockers, new coins and etc when will have some free time
