Cool mix of ideas. The art has a nice personality. :)

Hah the debuffs are really funny, I couldn't even be mad to get one. Kudos to the illustrator for the lovely art!

The disco elysium inspiration is very noticeable :D And that’s also one of my issues, the art is all over the place, one is this moody dark contrasting black and white Rorschach inkblot test style and the other is this colorful chaotic dance floor. They just don’t seem to fit together, I think sticking to one would be a better choice. The gunplay is really solid and feels great. There could be more enemies and as others said, they do make me stuck sometimes. Choosing the perks is nice. Seems like we sort of had the same idea :DD Otherwise it’s really nice

So far, probably the best game (except mine :DD) out of the 15+- I've rated, really enjoyed that.

It is a fun roguelike kind of shooter game :) What I would be careful about though are debuffs that highly change or take away the controls from the player, things like reverting the control scheme in general is not that fun, and I would appreciate to have some extra time after the enemy wave to collect the money. But otherwise I had fun, and I enjoyed it. Its really giving us the bald chad energy :) Thanks for the game

Hey, one of the devs is here. 
Great feedback, appreciate stuff like this a lot.
Regarding the debuffs, they are intentionally that hard and change your play-feeling a lot, since it's a huge risk - however, I do agree that in the end the black card is too hard to beat. We were playing with this mechanic for a while to make it extreme risky but possible and, I guess, it ended up to be not "possible" enough. x)
About the time for collecting coins, it's also a part of the gameplay: you don't only have to kill all the enemies but also manage to collect everything you got (like, keep one following you and get everything from this wave, otherwise, you'll face more harder waves). :D

I do like the gameplay loop and the music, the visuals are also amazing. However, the debuffs are really harsh and punish you very severely. :d

I love the visuals, the simple story is great (got a sensible chuckle out of me) and the gameplay loop itself is good. The two issues I do have with the game are that boldness isn't REALLY rewarded, and that the bullet knockback only happens when it's inconvenient. 
The debuffs (except tunnel vision) mean an instant game over, and the buffs aren't enough to counteract that. So the best strategy is to just flip one card past the first round and hope you don't get unlucky.

A very addictive game. Spend almost an hour before  winning for the first time and enjoyed every minute. I liked the visual design, the music - including a small nice detail, that the music has the same timing as the shotgun. The short and straightforward story is also quite cool. Overall, it’s very good, although could use some minor adjustments - but even AAA games do, right?

Thank you, Natoka, a lot. We glad you enjoyed our game so much! Congrats on winning. That was a BALD MOVE.

A brilliant game from the legendary studio VOMIK. If I were Warhorse, I would offer them all employment. (please)
