super creative, i dont ever look at controls or 'how to play' section so after my first playthrough I understood what everything did and how to play and I will say this was awesome and tons of fun
Not gonna lie, it’s a bit irritating that everyone is comparing it to Balatro when it’s a lot more like what came before it: very, very good solo card games, like Regicide, Scoundrel, etc. I’m willing to bet the designer is at least aware of that design space, if not downright adept at it.
Impeccable, right up my alley, the kind of card game that justifies its digital form by adding enough depth, variety and digital bookkeeping. LIKE BALATR-
Loved it. Though I wish there was a higher resolution version for the Steam release. I would've been ready to buy in that case. The text and some icons can get difficult to read. The perk icons have too little space to even be discerned imo. Despite the depth this version has, the pico-8 format still gives the game a prototype vibe. I might be alone in this opinion though so idk
Gameplay-wise, I got stuck on the 3rd floor with a single enemy and no attack points left. All that was left was to reset
Game has surprising amount of depth and atmosphere. Great work

Love this game once I figured out the rules.
How are you going to make this a bigger Steam release if Pico8 cartridges have a hard file size limit of 32k?
The Steam release is not using PICO-8 at all, it's in a new engine, so no worries about size limits this time :)
Interestingly, even the PICO-8 version wouldn't fit in one cartridge - it actually takes up four!
VERY cool. Can you talk about which engine you're going to use?
I cant beat this game for the love of me even in forgiving mode
This game is addictive. Can't wait for the steam release!
Should have something to show on that front pretty soon!
This is sick. I actually struggled to understand how to play at first (my fault entirely) but once I got it, it was insanely fun.

neato
This gotta be the best game I've ever come across so far on itch. What makes it really stick out like crazy is the replayability. Massive kudos. <3
crazy fun
I just started learning about pico8 and this game really surprised me how a tiny engine can do a good game like this 10 out of 10!!
beautiful and very fun game!
