How does your game fit the theme?
The last card you place each round becomes the first card affecting which cards you can place and there is no way back to change it.

I ended up pivoting so much i didnt really end up with a super tight integration with the theme, sorry...

Did you choose to incorporate the limitation into your game? (Yes/No)
Yes

From the sounds and music to the font and artwork, the aesthetics of this game are wonderful!

Thank you!

Very much a nice relaxing vibe from this one, which is always great to have.

My gripe here is that I couldn't really figure out the underlying rules on why certain combinations resulted in more points, but I was able to just find them through some trial and error switching them out here and there. (Won on my second run through)

Pretty chill, and very creative. I like that you used the theme in a more subtle way, even if that means you'll possibly get less points for it unfortunatelly.

I took a while to realize how I was actually supposed to play but after I did I had a pretty good time with it. Tho I think you should have explained better how negatives work, they're a little confusing at first.

Thanks for your feedback! One thing I definitely need to work on more is tutorials!

This is unique and simple, good art! :)

I don't understand at first, but i manage to win the game just to find which card has a bigger points xD

That's it i guess, keep up the good work Mitch! :D

Simple, easy to play, and very minimalistic. I love the choice of the music and the sound effects. They just hit the spot. I like the gameplay and how easy it is to play it. The controls are easy and the only difficult part is how the formula is developed. But I love the challenge to earn 1000 gold in under 10 turns. It's possible and really easy to do.

Overall, great job submitting this game.
