the concept is amazing, but as is often the case, the execution of said concept is sadly lacking. there is an extremely good reason most roguelike deck builders have FIVE cards drawn at the start of each turn and not two. also there's practically zero cards that actually draw additional cards, and I somehow ended up only finding ONE card that allowed me to draw more cards. after playing for over an hour.

Now... game is really fun I have nothing to oppose on it but... it crashes too much dude... like how? I am not gonna be like "duhhh I want my money back" for a free game but only reason I am unrecommending it is because its making me work to play it, I rather pay money to get it fixed
