a turn counter would have been cool just to keep track of how well (or poorly lol) im doing. But otherwise a fun time!
One note: I did encounter an issue where some of my cards seem to lock in place and couldn't be dropped?
It was fun to play though.
I did run into a couple of bugs but that's to be expected given the time constraints.
It also wasn't clearly explain up-front how drawing works, or when your discard pile gets shuffled into the draw pile, and I suspect most people coming to this from other games like Slay The Spire would have had the same initial confusion as me, but honestly I found the system you had to be new and interesting.
My only real complaint is that by the end of the game I physically couldn't play the cards quickly enough to defend against the ludicrous amounts of damage I was being dealt... Though I suppose that's in keeping with the "Delay the inevitable" theme.
