itch.io

True,
But compared to my hourly rate of $40, this seems pretty reasonable.
I've priced it cheaper at first, but since I'm forced to pay 30% tax to USA gov, even though I don't live there, I had to raise the price and pass the cost to my clients.
If you want it at the original price, you can contact me on discord: kiaazad

Sure, you can contact me on discord: kiaazad and we will arrange something.

I know anything I draw will pale in comparison to yours, but I'll keep practicing,  would love the idea of making, or playing this game someday.

Thank you,  It's nice to see my little attempt grabbed the attention of an artist as skilled as you.

thank you, but there are ones that are way more creative and better than mine.

32x32

Thank you, searched fire emblem and you're right.
I did have a little story of who they are, and what's the plot in my head while drawing, but I doubt I'll ever get the chance to turn it into a game anytime soon.

A cartoony style mixed with a hint of Picasso, I like it.

Very creative designs, there's even a bush character.

Thank you, and yes, of course.

Your designs are just too good,  I doubt anybody can compete at this level.

Oh, you meant normal tags, I assumed there's some jam related tags that I've missed.
Added those

Thank you ^^

I didn't see any tags mentioned in the jam's page. Are there any specific tags I need?

Played a couple of rounds and it's pretty good. Now I wonder if it's easy to make games for web with Go, and if I should try it at some point.

Not really, most of it goes to corrupt officials that have nothing better to do than creating laws to oppress us, throw us in jail and limit our freedoms.
We are paying for police force that hate us, educational system that make our kids dumb, healthcare that keeps us sick, militaries that starts wars and the economy that keeps us poor.
We would've thrive if only the government would've leave us alone.

Looks like you've took the `bully` example literally, It's just a figure of speech, in this case the bully is the government.

Unfortunately greed of the taxman always hurts the consumer and the platform.
Instead of handling taxes the right way, the platform passes the cost to the seller, and the seller will pass the cost to the client. At the end it will make using the platform more expensive for the client, and that hurts the platform's competitiveness

Nope, I'm too petty to take it lying down, I'll just raise my prices and give my clients cheaper alternatives.

I'm not talking about all of the process that goes on before I receive the money, itch should slap those costs on the client's  total.
And I'm not talking about how much paypal takes from the withdrawn money, I pay that anyways.
I'm talking about the difference between balance that I've sold and the balance that I can withdraw.
And yes, I think taxation is theft, since it goes to the dirty politicians and their corrupt contracts, funding wars, distributing drugs, DEI, woke bullshit, growing the government like cancer, and oppressing people. It never goes to a worthy cause that helps the citizens.
Not selling to them is not evading, it's refusing to take their money in the first place.

That would never work.
Every merchant will raise their prices by 30% and let the US citizens pay that tax instead. I'll just double.

There is two issues:
1- my country doesn't have a tax treaty with US.
2 - the fees should be paid by the clients not the seller.
But I'm being forced to pay for hotels to host illegal aliens that don't work.
Even that 30% sounds more reasonable compare to the half that I'm missing over here. At least they're upfront in the percent they'll take, and I can factor that into my prices.

Who said I want to evade taxes?
Tax is the money that government extort from you in the name of upkeeping the city and country that you live in. I don't live in US, why do I have to give them half of the money I'm spending my valuable time to earn?  If Fani Willis wants  romantic getaways with her lover boy she should extort US citizens, not me.

The main purpose of online markets is making the process as painless as possible.
I'll end up just doubling my prices and let the clients deal with the issue.
Anybody who want's the original price can contact me and buy it directly.

Well, my payout is half of my sales, somebody is dipping into my money instead of taxing their own citizens.
Why should I fund the drug addicts in san francisco while I'm starving over here?

I've been doing math with my gross revenue and my available balance for withdrawal, and the numbers do not add up after taking into account itch.io 's cut.
I think somebody is stealing from me, with the  "tax" excuse and I suspect it's US and European countries.

I'm being extorted by the local bully already, I don't want another hand from across the world in my pockets as well. How can I make my content unavailable to the countries with intent to steal from me?

Your game looks juicy, definitely goes into my play list to try when I get some free time.

You can run them in browser and see everything including the animation. Click full screen to see them in 1080 that is the original size.

If I remember correctly, The code will automatically re-shuffle the deck once the remaining cards are below a threshold. It's been a while though, I'll have to read through and see how I've written it.
Does it happen often? Or are there any specific steps to replicate the issue

Since I know the reason, let me share it with you: The main hurdle is consistency. AI often generates stunning images, but none of them are consistent with each other, and a game demands a coherent style and often multiple images of the same characters, and since humans are good at spotting inconsistencies in faces and bodies, the results are often too jarring to use.
And thank you for your kind words, your complements mean a lot to me.

Thank you, I personally prefer art drawn by an actual artist, it would come out cheaper considering how much time I have to spend on SD and photoshop to make these. But unfortunately finding an artist that I can rely on proved impossible.
I like the idea of TTS, my plan however was hiring voice actors once the game gathers a big enough following. It's too early though.

The bug has been fixed and replaced.

I'm embraced to have missed that bug,
I'll fix it and update the files. If you want to, you can also contact me on discord: kiaazad and get the fixes as soon as it's ready

Of course.

It should fit a 720 screen if you scale down the images. You can make the text smaller by searching `size` and changing the number too.
If I remember correctly, the puzzle takes a size parameter for piece size, that you can fiddle with to get the best result.

Must be the renpy version, I wrote this one for renpy 7.x , to run it on 8.x few lines must be changed.
This specific error happens when we divide something.
contact me on discord: kiaazad and I'll help you fix them.

Correct, Or `time.time()`
Since `time.clock()` was removed in python 3, we have to replace it with somethin else, it often doesn't matter which one, the different is usually the format that the time is returned.

I'm glad it could be helpful. Played your game it's very addicting, ^^

They were promising a better environment for creators when I joined, I remember years ago, they came to the forum, talking about their new platform and how they will cater to our needs if we join. But I guess greed got the best of them over the years...
If you search `itch.io alternatives` , the main reason creators are unhappy with itch is: being ignored by support. Looks like they've forgot that without real creators, they won't have anything to make money from, other than stolen junk.

Yeah, they've already lost the chance of hosting any of my games by ignoring me and siding with a thief that stole money from me. Looks like they don't appreciate the actual creators.
I'm too old and petty to let people that wronged me slide. Let's see if I get petty enough with age to take my business elsewhere. I'm already on the edge of removing all of my free stuff just because one guy  abused my generosity.
