thanks for playing!
bummer about those visual bugs! it is, technically possible to play a legal hand of....6*4 of the same card (5 per 4x Rat Swarms, and then the 4 that start in the deck) and although that particular situation is pretty unlikely, a single Rat Swarm leads to 9 copies of the same Rank in circulation... all that to say: it could still have been a bug LOL. I really appreciate you playing and leaving bug reports, it helps a lot!
I can see where you're coming from on the theming - after playing these other Jam games, I definitely could have leaned into the loop theme more!
