Use of the limitation
When I saw the limitation, I immediately thought of roguelike deck-building: you only have one life, and if you die, you start over.

It made my day to see your video. Thanks for taking the time to play my game!

Submitted

no problem & glad you enjoyed! 🙂

I really love this! I love balatro, slay the spire, this fits right in. 
Great execution in just 2 days as well. 
Hats off!

Developer

thanks!

Actually amazing, love the art, concept, and it plays really smooth

Having the hand context popups was a great touch, made it a lot easier to understand. Luckily I understand the poker style, but that just made it even easier to pickup--suits were a bit hard to distinguish at first, maybe establishing some suit names would help?  This is so awesome though, and I'm not really even into card style games! Slay the Spire is the closest I get to card video games really--well done all around!!

Super impressive! 

Developer

Thanks!

Holey Moley the level of polish on the game is incredible! The animations on the cards is really awesome, I like the sound effects, music and art a ton. The game is really beautiful, and you really built in a good amount of progression and upgrades it seems.

Developer

Thanks!

The art is really well done and the concept is novel. The strategy felt a bit broken as I often was just throwing away as many cards as possible to chase a royal flush. I also wish the UI for the suits was more clear, it was difficult to tell what suit each card was as they blended together.

Developer

thanks for the feedback! yeah suits was a bit unclear.

This game is gorgeous! It also ended up educating me on the possible plays in poker, which is nice.

This is a fun mashup of Slay the Spire and Balatro. The sounds are oddly familiar? Overall, there is definitely room to expand here and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! 

I previously searched for music on Pixabay, and some of it has probably been used by others as well.

the graphics is soooooo good but i only got highguard cards and don't know how to attack just to block

It requires some knowledge of Texas Hold’em. Some of my friends who haven’t played it have run into similar confusion. 

Which means my game’s guidance and tutorial need improve.

I didn't know IT was based from a real card game but I only know how to play uno

Great game! Very fun and visually stunning. I love games in this style. And to think that this work of art was created in 72 hours. I wonder what kind of masterpiece would come with more time.

Developer(+1)

I’ve also thought about what it would be like if I could modify the deck or add a lot of new relics, but maintaining a long-term project is too demanding, so I probably won’t expand it further—haha.

Submitted

That's a shame, but I totally understand.

Submitted

This is a well made game, with good gameplay and amazing art and all under 72hrs. I'm surprised very few played this, judging by the amount of ratings.

Submitted

I love card games! Here are the pros and cons:

+ Fun mechanics

+ Beautiful graphics

+ Good interpretation

- I don't understand how this relates to deep
