Made with Godot. All visual assets, and sound effects were created during the jam with aseprite and boscaceoil blue, except for the fonts. I used generative AI for coding only.

Great idea, this was very quick to understand and the various mechanics are well thought.
Fantastic concept and very well executed!
This is an awesome game jam entry! I loved it to bits. The game is super polished and has so much content. What more could you want?? Personally, it did feel like the progression of the game was a little bit slow for my liking. But hey, maybe that is just me; I like memory games. Congratulations!
That's a feedback I got a lot, I'll try to work on progression for a post jam update, thanks for playing!!
This was quite good! So polished and so much content! I got to 29 left in around 8 minutes. Really cool.
At first I thought out games were similar. They sort of kind of are but also not at all. Really liked your visuals and the sound was nice and lowkey as well.
Insane amounts of polish on this one for a jam game. Well done!
They will both get sorted in the same categories for sure haha, but different enough yes, I'll need to get more time to get back to your game, it is very pretty and seems to have some interesting combo mechanics between letters and numbers.
Thank you! I definitely tried! I had to scrap about 20 additional items because I was out of time. The intent was to have some strong synergies and some cards that would ruin synergy A but really benefit synergy B. The game as it is really boils down to just buying everything you can which I don't think is all that interesting.
I am aiming for a Steam release. If you release yours on Steam we should do a bundle!
I am so impressed by the amount of challenges, spins and mechanics implemented into this game. This is a masterclass in finding a narrow scope, finding the fun, and then building on top of that. Really well done!
Thank you so much, it was I deed the goal to expand on a really easy promise, mainly because I didn't know how much time I could spend on the jam but also because that's an approach I like to take

appears simple at first but it kept surprising me with the interesting new gimmicks
very creative concept! unfortunately my memory sucks so i struggled to get very far but i had fun!
very sleek polished little game, i loved the modifiers and how they stacked up over time, and the variety between them was very creative. Congrats on the submission :)
A super well rounded package. You can definitely be proud of such an elegant and timeless interpretation and implementation of the theme. Would definitely play on mobile to kill some time.
This is so fantastic! This has that balatro type moreish simple base game design that just stacks and gets crazy quick. I'm super impressed! If I had any advice it would be to maybe start with two cards rather than 1 so you can get to the challenge a bit quicker. Maybe the song loops could be a little bit longer too, but thats only an issue because I could see myself playing this a lot. Thanks for making this!
Quite fun and polished, although it does get a bit repetitive, and I wish it got harder faster
Fun game with a nice polish level!
Thank you !
Would love to have a mobile version
I wanted to but didn't get enough time sadly, that something I will definitely try again to publish after the jam, for the moment the web version should work correctly on phone, with touch screen detection.
Im not gonna lie, this game is so fun! Like, tbh ? I've never seen anything like this before and I think the concept is really fun. Also, it's very polished and I like how you implemented the theme!
Absolutely peak game
Thank you so much very the very positive comment ! Glad you liked it !
Nice game! The "malus" round were super hard to play with, for instance the "bring a friend option". Good job on your submission!
Thank you !
Very soothing it’s addictive like games like 2048, solitaire, and sudoku, which I love!!!!
I didn't even think of 2048 while making it, but I'm sure it was there in the back of my mind when making the game; I was too addicted to it when it came out! And that's true; the art direction is very close. Glad to know you liked it!
Super fun and addictive.
Thank you ! Hope you find time to play other jams game instead of your addiction :P <3
Definitely the most "I want to come back to this later" of an experience I've had so far exploring the jam, amazing job!
That's a very cool compliment :) thank you!!
This has great game-feel, feedback, and audio design.
With such a simple promise, I tried my best to make everything as polished as possible. Glad you liked it!
it was fun! interesting idea hehe
I feared at the start the idea was a bit too simple but I feel like it's working, thank you!
