I love rats so much thank you for this wonderful game!!

Awesome ! God bless rats ^^

The sound is very satisfying ^^
the graphics is efficient and clean and the gameplay as well.
Good game, thanks!

There's a ton of personality here, from the design of the cards to the theming itself. Wish I could see the rats' cards, but I generally won so I won't argue with the dealer.

I hustled those rats!


If there was supposed to be an end game screen I missed it! I thought it would be funny to fold when I was the only one and soft locked it, lol.

While it was cute and fun, since these is no ante I made a fool of those rate. Wait for a good hand then raise my heart out. I don't know what they had, of course, but at least once I think I beat a flush with a higher flush. That poor mouse was raising like crazy. When I won, I think I could see the pixelated disappointment and sadness on his face.

Well executed. Add an ante and it becomes more of a challenge.

I found the idea pretty nice, but I never get to see the eyes of the rats moving (if that was the hint of a good hand)
Nice game, awesome graphics, great job!

cool poker game and nice art good job !

@mdsalomon and @damien-black , I wanted to add a hand reveal at the end of each round, but my time management failed me and I'm kind of amazed I finished enough to submit.

@damien-black I absolutely *love* your description of that round! Also, there isn't a proper end screen, you just a point where all of your opponents have left due to lack of chips which you hit.

There is actually small blind and big blind bet that cycle around the table along with who is the dealer, but I just tested and it looks like it is bugged, I'm guessing something with counting from the dealer's position not wrapping around. There also should be a max of 80 chips in circulation so something is going wrong there too. I'm going to take a look at those.

Just looked into the bugs. The lack of ante was a missing modulo operation in that function and the player being seat 0, so doing dealer_position+1 was effectively telling an empty chair to ante up, rather than wrapping around to the player. For the chips it seems if you raise the first chance you get in a round, it bets a negative amount because it was calculating stuff based on last round's required bet due to a missing "=0", so the player was just pulling chips out of thin air to raise people. The hand evaluation code is still jank, and I have no idea who gets a tied pot, but the ones you found seem to be the most prevalent ones and the easiest to fix. Thanks!

Both of those are tiny bug fixes so I think they are allowed per [the rules](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/rules). **Fixed version is live!**

@oren-hope The eyes do a little wiggle right when they are dealt a pair, or when a table card is dealt that improves the type of hand they can make (such as: pair → three of a kind). It only happens when they first see a card, so you do need to pay attention, but it is there in my testing.

Pretty cute game, love the little twist with the wiggling eyes. Tried to see if I could still win, and the giggling boy took my chips, haha. As others said, I would loved to the the enemies cards at the end, would be nice to see how close it got, but all in all a great version of Poker with adorable visuals. Well done!

The rats hustled me instead, I had to look up how to play Texas Hold 'Em lol. This is a very cute take, fits theme well, the sound effects and visual feedback / text bubbles feel great! I would like some like card den or elevator type music that adds some more ambience.

Very cute game.

Love me some texas hold em. I had a fun time. :)

I'm a sucker for card games! I love the minimalist card design and the SFX. I somehow managed to get the game stuck in a loop -- I folded, and the two remaining rats at the table seem to be stuck calling back and forth :rofl:

A very cute way to get you into addiction - would get addicted again 10/10

I humbled these rats hehe
