Good job!"},{"author_name":"JALgames","author_uid":"26549","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 7:55am","epoch":1398671400,"text":"Could you please provide a .zip?"},{"author_name":"Kar","author_uid":"29445","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 7:56am","epoch":1398671460,"text":"Hey, thanks.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@TomBoogaart: A lot of luck, sure. But there is not the same chance of every card for all the game. The possibilities changes as you make progress. It's still not perfect, and may be pretty annoying, but hey! That's just a bad luck then! :)"},{"author_name":"Kar","author_uid":"29445","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 8:01am","epoch":1398671760,"text":"@JALgames: sure mate! .zip is available now.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>@Mstrp2ez: Hey, thanks for playing. And ye, I know about this bug, it's a &quot;relic&quot; of the old mechanic, which I had no time to implement. It doesn't happen all the time and the game is beatable.
