Congrats on completing the game jam! This game gives me old school Final Fantasy vibes, especially FF8, with the train carriages and the cards and the transition into battle. The mix of 3d and 2d pixel art (which looks great) is done really well.
Some general feedback and ideas:
- I think all the animations can be sped up quite a bit, like the transition into battle, the movement of the cards etc. It will improve the pace of the game which currently feels a bit slow.
- I feel like the game would still work if you were to be able to see the opponents cards. This way it becomes about remembering the value of each card and making strategic decisions about which cards you pick from your hand and whether you gamble with another turn of pulling cards.
- What could also be interesting is if there where some synergies between the tarrot cards. For example, if you put down a sun and a moon in the same round all cards get +2 value. And you discover those synergies by simply playing the game.
This game idea has a lot of potential, I hope you guys will keep working on it. Well done!
