This game was made in sorrow and joy.
Many things aren't like we would like them to be, but we managed to reach the end, the result feels pretty good!
/!\/!\/!\The major problem of the game is the repetitive aspect. It's quite intentional, the point is to do a stupid thing and ignoring the consequence, but we wanted the game to evolve on more aspects to distract the player and to give more impact to the action, but we didn't manage to add enough stuff. Maybe we'll work soon on a Post-Jam version! /!\/!\/!\
I hope that everyone will get the meaning of the game and the link with the theme. Everything started from there.
Thank You for playing!

The main complaint I would have is the rhythm of the game. Somehow I think the balance might have been done better, maybe by accelerating step by step, the speed at which you grab and scratch tickets. That would have had a kind of frenetic feel. Or, if you don't wanted that kind of acceleration, then I think the game should have been shorter because, at one point, I found myself scratching endlessly, staring at the photo waiting for a change, and finally when it changed, I sometimes didn't even notice the difference. Less photo steps, bigger photo, shorter game, might have improved my experience. That's subjective of course ^^
Really well put together and polished, although that I agree with @SoulGame in that some acceleration of the gameplay would've been nice.
If you add more stuff i think it could be really fun! Good job!
Would like to see has the story goes on the mood changing a little bit (maybe getting a bit more dark) to give more emphasis to the addiction and the story giving it a stronger and heavier mood. Because the gameplay can be a little repetetive and the changing mood would help to break that repetetion. - this is just a suggestion and me being picky X)
Gj!
Excellent work!
