Great job. Rolling and getting a new weapon is nice especially if it is the railgun or grenade launcher. The main menu is also epic where you can shoot the glasses and other stuff. Well Done!!!! :D

Wow, great game! I played a fin twin stick shooters in the jam and always had issues with the controls, but here using the mouse to move + shoot feels great. It’s random, but you have just a little bit of extra control over your fate that feels great. Congratulations!

Had an absolute blast blasting poker chips and cards!

Great use of theme, great tie-ins, and everything is related to something casino-esque!

I love the animations, and even the controls! The game gets a lot easier once you start memorizing what faces you want to land on depending on how many enemies there are (usually 5-grenades and 6-laser are the best).

I also love the knockback you get from using any of the weapons so that you are randomized again, and you can either chance it, or try to finesse it to a number you want/need.

Its great that the relative power of the weapons are stronger the higher the number of pips!

I also love all the feedback and the juice of the game, but honestly, pump that up to eleven! I want to see bigger explosions and more screen shake! gimmie gimmie

Overall, beautiful submission!

(P.S. Could use a boss 😉)

I don't know how you've managed to pull that off in 48 hours, i love all about it. Crazy good job!

Hope you enjoyed the jam!

That production value!

Most of my feedback is the same as others, so I'll point out something random. The typographic design and font choice might be better if you chose something closer to the numbers and letters on the table. That would give a more cohesive feel to the stuff happening on the UI layer to what is happening in the game.

Great job, the fact that you did this in just 2 days is amazing

I really loved that game! A lot of submissions tried to do the "roll for a gun" thing, but the way you implemented it is clearly over the top! The weapons are fun, graphics are good, the fact that firing will force you to roll is so smart. Really great game all over!

ayyyyo this game slaps , dman it's one of the jam games that I enjoyed the most, really unique way to interpret the theme, love that card walking animation , did you made those by yourself ? , one suggestion is  the gun equip time is too high , and when enemies gang up on you in corner then it bugs out I think , because it was not equipping any weapon, that could be fixed. but I had playing it, please develop this further into a full game.

This game was quite literally a Blast! Fun and simple core gameplay loop and it nailed the "Just one more go" vibe. The available weapons were great too, only note I have is having some way out if your surrounded like a high jump
