This is a neat little memory game, congrats on completing the jam! Some small notes:
1) I think it would benefit from a different icon for gaining vs losing money, it took me most of my first play through to realize that not all of the bill icons were giving me extra money
2) Similarly, it took me quite a while to realize that objects were worth random amounts. The dollar amount is pretty small on the card, so it's especially tough to keep track of when you're already trying to memorize the location of cards
3) The fullscreen button's super useful here, the default resolution of your game seems to be absolutely massive: it barely fits on my 4k screen, and doesn't fit on my macbook pro screen at all.
I love the little theme you've put together for the background music
Thanks for the feedback! This helps us to improve our game!
The original idea of gaining and losing money is actually not like that. We wanted cash to be exactly like other items that cost players' money. But after many tests, we found out letting players do the math might not be clever. So we came up with this idea eventually and got not much time left. We definitely gonna think about how can we improve the clarity of all the cards and icons in the future.
For the resolution, I didn't know why I always get a weird resolution problem when uploading games on itch. It always provides different results on different devices. I actually set a fixed resolution which is 1920*1080, but it barely fits on your 4k screen! So I did my research and I changed the embed options on itch. I'm now using "Click to launch in full screen" instead of "Embed in page", and I believe now it suits well in any browser.
However, there is still a display issue. Sprites are losing details when scaling down the browser, but all of them will be solved in the future post-jam version!
