This game was quite fun! When I first played , I forgot how to play Blackjack :) But then once I knew what I was doing I really enjoyed it! Of course sound effects would have been nice, but I still enjoyed the game! Some things of note was that you could get absolutely destroyed from a combo of a small max point threshold and a plus three card from the opponent. Essentially, there are some combos that work, and some that definitely don't, but I really like how some cards aren't technically balanced, mixing up the game enough that you have to strategize on the fly (as best as you can with Blackjack) and that's cool! However this also leads to some cards screwing you over a bit unfairly. Overall, this is a really cool spin on Blackjack, even if sometimes you can get royally screwed by RNG. Nice Work!

when i was balancing the cards, i tried to put different strategies into different suits:D
also the idea was to focus player on the bets, like if you have a bad hand — you can just pass and don't loose more money😁 but, as far as i understand, it doesn't work well🤔, on the game design side, technically it works ofc:)
oh, and about, yas, i really wanted to add them of course and this task was the next in my todos! but it was 3am here, when i finished the game, so maybd i kinda burned out with this project a little (ironically), and just wanted to go to bed, as soon as possible:,)
thank you for such a great feedback!<3
This is actually so fun I could play this forever! I’m actually downloading the android apk so I can keep it on my phone! It’s so chaotic and I love it :)
