This is a really cool entry! The slot machine aspect is such a good idea and I think the art is brilliant. Great work!

Submitted

Nice game! Never thought I'd see a gambling game in this jam lol, the visuals are really good. Keep up the good work!

Submitted

The art in this game is great! I love watching the slot machine spin even if its taking all my money. My only complaint would be that the turns get a bit stale with just the same attack, block repeat cycle after you use all your items, I think the player needs more to do during combat. Apart from that though, well done on making a cool game!

(P.S I assume you wanted to use a custom cursor like the one that appears when you hover over a button, I think you can set the cursor in the player settings to have it show up all the time!)

This was a really interesting concept and the art was also really well done!

I really enjoyed your game. It's very beautiful and very enjoyable to play. I liked the roulette mechanic for getting items for your character. I also liked the game's art style, congratulations!

Submitted

That was a lot of fun. I could well imagine the concept as a fully-fledged game.

I LOVE GAMBLING! and this game had it all. I really had fun playing and working out the best strategies with the items I got. I can see this being crazy good if it gets updated. Not to mention, the art direction and overall aesthetics are super pretty.

Submitted

This is a cool concept for a roguelike.  I think with extra time to flesh out the combat mechanics and to refine the balance this could be really fun!

Nice art, too.

The music was a bit repetitive, but listenable enough for 5-7 minutes.

Overall, I liked it.  One of my more favorite concepts I've voted on for this jam.

Submitted

The visual are dope, and the gameplay loop works well !
Feel free to test our game !

Submitted

Had a fun and challenging time with this! The concept is well executed and certainly unique, well done!

Submitted

Visuals cool, game mechanic cool and who doesn't love gamble? But the balance of the game really challenging

Really cool graphics and a great game idea who doesn't love gambling and dungeons?! Great game! 

Submitted

Heya! Nice work here! I really liked the art and the gameplay, though it might benefit from a few balance tweaks. Overall, well done!

Submitted

Man... how i love this game. Great job.

Submitted

I love the art and concept. The balancing might need a few tweaks

Submitted

Interesting roguelike! I love the art and animations, they're super well done. The game seemed like way to hard though, and it seems like encounters were just often straight up impossible with what you have been given. I also felt like I really didn't have that much agency it my build, and even when I did it didn't really feel like I was making synergies but rather finding the good items. I also don't understand what the defend did but that might just be me. If this game were a bit more fair I could definitely see myself playing for extended periods of time though, so well done!

Submitted

Nice roguelike. I would've liked if it was more balance and maybe more options for the player to do, for example choosing between different weapons. I think the game was a little too hard and I couldn't manage to get past the third enemy. But I really like the whole randomness idea and it made me really think whether to enter a really hard level or risk it to try get an easier level, I thought that was a really cool concept. Good Job!

Submitted

this game was great but I dont thick it was quite balanced.  Might be a skill issue lol

Submitted

really fun, really polished little rouglike :)
