I like how you incorporated gambling to a turn-based combat game like this!

I played this quite a bit longer than I expected, took me a minute to get the idea but then once I did, it clicked, it just felt really fun and simple, I think this is a perfect amount of gambling, where you can still succeed if you don't want to play risky, but should you want that extra damage or shield then you may want to see if you can actually get that final token and go for the boosted damage or shield, also the music is really good! Certainly fit the vibe! I can't really give any criticism as it's just a solid entry, well actually I would of liked an end goal or a score to give me an actual reason to keep going. Really great job, I had more fun than I expected!

Really good job! Like a lot of the other people who've commented, I really enjoyed the combat system. It's a really novel and cool idea, and it makes for a really fun game. My first run I chose rogue, and then I think I played for at least 10 minutes straight before stopping to try the other classes. I had a good time, but without some kind of win condition or scaling to enemy damage & health, there doesn't really seem to be an end to game, making it feel a little incomplete. Overall, however, it was really fun and it was a really great game!

Wow, I definitely did not expect anyone to play more than 5 minutes, I almost feel bad for not taking more time to balance and put and endgoal into the game. The enemy encounters are now spawned in at random, but I was thinking to put 'the BAKER' as the final boss to indeed give an endgoal. It was just a jam game, but I am considering to expand it after the jam to make it into a fuller version based on all your feedback. Thanks so much for playing and commenting!

The mechanics in this game is so unique and creative. I love that you designed various starting tokens for each class, make the gameplay feels rich. I chose the old man at first and didn't really understand how to play, but after I replay it and switch to rogue, things became clear and fun. Maybe I'm just not ready to become a cool old man :(

Haha the old man is becoming a community favorite! It was actually my test class but I thought it was funny to keep it in. His years of experience gave him a lot of HP and all his hits are crits! You were right that it actually could confuse the actual intended gameplay though. Thanks for playing and for your feedback!

I really like the concept behind the battle system here. This one could be expanded after the jam to have an increased difficulty curve and potentially higher risk/higher reward. But I think the general idea you have here has a lot of potential

I liked the concept of the going bust as you draw and deciding - should I attack now, or try to boost my attack. I feel that this is a great wee mechanic you've implemented.

Needed a bit more 'reward' through the game. Seeing some enemy attacks reducing your 'bust' level or maybe only allowing you to draw 2 cards or something would be a very simple addition. As you can tell - I am into this simple roguelite mechanic you've got.

Great wee game jam submission - kudos!

Hey thanks for playing my game! You have some great suggestions. The rewards part and the actual building your bag didn't make it in the jam version unfortunately. I was planning to add some more interesting enemies then just plain 'damage dealers'. I had some plan of having them interact with your bag in some way by adding blanks or more heat generators for example. Your suggestions sound like really cool implementations for some boss mechanics! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing my game! Indeed, balancing is something that went out of the window due to time constraints, I did tone down some characters a bit, but didn't take the time to fully balance it. Thanks for trying it long enough to find out you cant die!

Very fun rolling/drawing mechanic! It did seem there was no way to lose if I rolled correctly as the rogue. With more time perhaps consider adding a means of exiting combat to upgrade character and fight stronger monsters.

Thanks for your feedback! Yeah indeed the balancing is off in this version. Thanks for your suggestions, I was indeed planning to add some monsters or something that somehow interact with your drawn tokens as well, but it didn't make the jam version. Thanks for playing!

Cool. It’s pretty simple but fun. I like it.

I’m not sure if it’s my browser, but the display looks a little glitched out for me.

Launching the game for the first time I made a naive mistake of choosing the old man...

Interesting gamble combat system, it definitely has a lot of potential and could be expanded on.

Keep up the good work!

the old man is secretly quite strong though! All his attacks are crits and due to his long lifespan he has a lot of hp! Thanks for playing my game, hope you enjoyed it!

This is an absolutely brilliant idea for a combat system. While the implementation is a little basic, I could see this idea being expanded into a truly awesome and unique game. Great work, and I love your interpretation of the theme!
