A Game of Chance

Could you win a game of blackjack to save your life?

Step into the boots of a gambler trapped in a lawless, otherworldly land where the stakes are life and death. A Game of Chance is a Western-themed roguelite where every move is a gamble, and your chips are your life.

In this high-stakes adventure, you’ll face off against bandits through a series of tense gambling mini-games. Your health, attacks, and survival all depend on the chips you bet, win, or lose. Will you play it safe, or risk it all for a chance at freedom?

Main Features:

• Gambling as Combat: Engage in card games and coin flips to defeat enemies and progress. Every hand could be your last.
• Rogue-like Progression: Lose, but don’t despair. Unlock new abilities and items to help you on your next run, just don't go all in!
• Chip-Based Mechanics: Your chips are your health, your attacks, and your currency. Manage them wisely, or face the consequences.
• Unlockables: Discover hidden decks, powerful items, and mysterious characters to aid your escape.
• Atmospheric Western Setting: Immerse yourself in a stylized pixelated world of creaking saloons, dusty tumble weeds, and a questionable casino.

The cards are dealt, the dice are rolling, and the clock is ticking. Can you outwit your foes, beat the house, and find a way to escape this cursed frontier? Or will you join the ranks of those who came before you—forever lost to the gamble?

Place your bets. The game begins now.
