Put the exe in a .zip or else Windows warns people that it might be malware
The board feels off-center since it's so far to the right. I think it would be better centered with the books as an element that can slide in when moused over/when they are activating
For some reason the score, goal, money, etc. is harder to keep track of compared to Balatro. I think all the UI fonts being the same with no visual priority is making it hard to keep track of the more important parts of the HUD. Also because the score just increases by however much instead of visually counting up above the text
Oliver Twist gives me no information about if/how much its effect is applying -- Oh, it does but it'd be way more useful if I could see it at any time... No, actually its only telling me how much its increasing... I think? It seems to count drawing new tiles as a discard so it could be only going up to 1.4x even though I think I'm using it correctly
Macbeth changes the game so much I'm surprised it's an uncommon. I would probably make it do that conditionally or something. That being said, the most fun I had with the game was setting it up so I'm just making words on the board that get removed instantly and can then move on to upgrading the spaces and tile I'm using to make words instead of playing real Scrabble
Money is so tight that I don't believe there's any justification for buying single tiles for around half the price of a book
I don't feel like I get many choices in the first shop because money is so limited
Performance doesn't seem to affect payout or the next round which means that you could spend board space trying to make too good of a word and (if you don't have a board destroying build) you'll have wasted space
The most interesting parts are when you get a build going and can afford to make choices or save money, but early game just feels like Scrabble which I find boring
I skipped the tutorial if any of this seems uninformed
