nah i added that after your first comment because i always forget to add that to my browser games… as a general rule though it’s never a good idea to try to play web games in the itch.io desktop app.
ahh the old chrome/firefox text rendering discrepancy… unfortunately i still get the cropped text on firefox (my main browser), but it looks completely fine on chrome!
excellent stuff! really nice use of the domino tool, it’s so clever…
one thing worth pointing out: the text cuts out on a few of the cards, making it impossible to read the end of certain sentences. i would recommend tweaking the CSS to either making the font size just a little bit smaller, or making the cards fit the height of the text columns (or both).
thanks for the link! lol i can respect the commitment to verisimilitude, it’s cool.
i don’t have a playdate so i wouldn’t be able to play it, but i love the greyscale look. maybe one day i’ll make a monochrome/1-bit bitsy game…
very sharp style of writing and also genuinely funny, which is always a plus.
such an interesting examination of sports in the general cultural consciousness (specifically american here but i think it applies to other cultures too more or less) and then the performance… gender, gender roles and gender dynamics as performance, liking sports as performance, clichés and their inversions…
i think this is one of my favourite interpretations of the theme!
FINALLY unlocked all the characters (thank u emma dee for the hint)… banger game thank u… so good to see my SON in this. great writing for every character AND GOOD ART TOO
