I'm not really a cards player, thus a little in game instruction would be great. Doesn't have to be a lot, a simple 2-3 screenshots which explains the mechanic in the beginning would be sufficient.

Developer

hey, thanks for your feedback. What kind of instructions would be good to have?

Submitted

Firstly ofc the explanation you provided in the games description on the page. Maybe a bit less dense text wise and with describing pictures. Essentially anything that describes how the cards game works and what a possible strategy could look like. 

From UI perspective i'm thinking like a first time welcome screen, which can also be called via help (?) button.

I think this would actually be a lot of fun to play IRL. Enjoyed it. Good job :)

thanks :) yeah, made use of microsoft copilot to write the code with my inputs, I'm not very skillable with coding. Lost all day on friday trying to use DeepSeek, it just made me round in circles with broken/out of context code, but when I migrate to copilot it was very smooth

Ahh okay, I also had trouble understanding what was meant as kaputt reference but now that I get it, I think it's a cool and creative approach to the theme!

Nice Game. But I dont get the "kaputt" reference

Developer(+1)

it's more about the word etimology, kaputt comes from the french "capot" which means something like: "to be without a trick in the card game", so the interpretation orbit around this and the fact that ur deck is being destroyed along the game. thank you, have fun

Developer

thanks (:

Like the Idia ! But what is Kaputt in your Cart Game? Dont get the Message :D

Developer (1 edit)

I did some research and look like Kaputt comes from a word in french "capot" that was commonly used to refer to a situation on a card game where there's no more way out basically, so it's basically the exaustion of your cards. There where some ideas too like, put up a win condition if you finish with 0 score (to play around with the kaputt word), but I end up losing too much time at the first day and couldn't reinforce the Kaputt idea a little more. But thanks :)
