Enjoyable
Nice atmosphere and a very cool take on the theme. Great job!
the art was really sweet on this!
Oh a waifu, sign me up!!
A game where we can finally be the dealer! Sign me up!
I suck. Great game tho...
Today I learned: I'm bad at rigging cards
Love the aesthetic, and the characters have a lot of, well, character! The gameplay is pretty simple, but it fits the vibe of a quiet game of blackjack. Great art and good writing! Loved it!
Cute and aesthetic style, fun game. The music, despite its simplicity, really caught my attention.
Took me a little while to work out how to play, but once I figured it out it was a very engaging and thematic game.

Absolutely love the game ! I can envision a game where depending on the day you have different sets of characters and have different storylines depending on who you make friend/enemy with letting them win or lose money. 10/10
I absolutely love this game. It seemed a bit complex at first but after a few rounds I wrapped my head around the rules. The shadow figures pointing a gun at you are quite funny.
Cute characters
This was a very fun game to play, with fun characters and charming sound effects! I wasn't sure if any of the characters other than Ozo actually react to losing a bunch, but I'm also not sure I cared because cheating them was so fun. I do think this game could use some more mechanics and more fleshing out if you decide to keep working on it post-jam, but I'm easily amused and would probably have played several more rounds if the game went on infinitely. I also wasn't entirely sure how tips worked.
Charming characters and art style. It was really fun to play as the house, pulling the strings and choosing who would win.
The art and music is so pretty! The dialogue was entertaining and I also liked the gameplay, but I wish it had another mechanic or two for more replayability. All in all it was fun!!
I enjoyed it! Playing a lot of blackjack myself, I think it's a pretty cool concept that might be fleshed out by some additional mechanics.
Nice on! The art was really charming! Birdie putt!
I love the art and characters! I wish there was a little more depth to the gameplay though. I didn't feel like replaying the game after winning, because I feel like that would have been a bit too tedious.
