Very interesting game. Really liked the art style and audio,  Had fun. 

GG, well done.

UI is a bit confusing. If you know the rules of texas hold'em you can sort of follow up, but eventhough it is hard to keep track of big/small blind in each turn, and current values. 

But, poker is always fun.

Would like a little more explanation on what to do. I could look at my cards and place a blind then wasn't sure. 

Will try again towards end of voting before scoring.

I was planning to do some polishing like that on the last day, but then it turned out that publishing on Itch, and working with different resolutions was a lot more difficult than I expected.

I'll add some basic instruction to the description.
