About Tilting - A Noir Poker Career

✦ AI summary

Start broke at a sticky dive bar table and climb the poker ranks across eight venues with rising stakes, better competition, and fancier digs if you've got the skill and luck. It's a Texas Hold'em roguelite where you manage your bankroll, read AI opponents, and chase a career from basement games to championship stages without spending real money or losing internet connection.

TILTING — A Noir Poker Career

You start broke at a dive bar. Buy-in's fifty bucks. The felt is sticky and the other players have nowhere better to be.If you're good, or lucky, the rooms get nicer. The stakes go up. The cities change. Your car changes. The people at the table get harder to read.
  • What the game is:
A Texas Hold'em roguelite with career progression across tournament venues and cash games. You manage a bankroll, move between cities, and try not to go bust before the next buy-in.Full Hold'em hand flow. AI opponents. Eight venues from dive bar to championship stage, each with its own atmosphere and stakes. Character styles that change the look and feel of your run. Travel cutscenes between venues. Persistent career with prestige and tier progression.! No real money. No microtransactions. No always online gate. No scamming !
  • What it isn't:
The AI opponents play reasonable poker and improve with the game, but they're not solving GTO any time soon. This is a solo indie game built with a lot of care and a lot of AI-assisted art. It won't fool a serious poker player into thinking the table is alive, but it might trip you up when the AI tilts you because it got lucky 3 hands in a row.
  • Where it's going:
More venues, tougher opponents, and deeper progression mechanics are things I'd like to add. No roadmap, no promises I could fail to deliver on, this is not early access, it's just a game I intend to keep working on if people humor me.

What Steam players say

✦ AI summary

Players praise the gambling roguelite concept and note that the AI opponents can play competently on certain characters, but criticize significant technical issues including unbalanced difficulty that varies wildly between characters, a major bug where players post blinds without money, and poor graphical choices like inconsistent art quality and pixelated card suits that are hard to distinguish. The game feels unfinished and requires substantial fixes before it's worth playing, even at its low price point.

Players keep getting hands when they have 0BB left in the tournaments, and they still post blinds as if they had money. So they're considered "all-in" in several hands they shouldn't. I played as the 'old pro' and another tech-guy and the game was very balanced and hard, I busted twice testing how the players would play (and they would call big raises and play well). Then I played as 'the hustler' and 95% of the time everyone folds to 1/2 pot raises pre-flop. Seems like something went poo-poo there - I wonder if some sort of difficulty downgrade if I go bust too much? This third time I played ~100 hands and raised some ~30 hands and got only 2 calls, winning the tournament. No re-raises from the other players. Unfortunately, this is not ready.

I'm a sucker for gambling roguelites so decided to give this a try even though it had zero reviews. Long story short: It's not great which isn't a deal breaker for $3. The bigger issue is the obvious corner cutting like why is my portrait super detailed while everyone else at the table is a glorified stick figure? That's just weird and puzzling in an age where you can generate a collection of similar portraits in a matter of seconds. Also, the lazy implementation of the pixelated graphics make it difficult to read important text or even see the card faces. Several times I wasn't sure what suit I was looking at because, for example, hearts and diamonds both look like a red blob. If anyone else is like me and looking at this store page out of curiosity, give this a pass until the price drops to the 99 cent range or the devs roll out some patches to fix some of the issues I detailed above. Currently this is not worth $3.99

Had an absolute blast with this one. The old-school pixel/retro art style is genuinely cool, it nails the noir mood. Very easy to keep coming back to. Recommended if you're into poker or roguelites, or just wanna play something different.
