Hi! Firstly, thanks for investing your time in our project. Without you, this wouldn't have any sense. We are Drethan and Dante, two Andalusian devs who always dreamed about doing our stuff. The project was born as a submission to the GMTK Game Jam 2023, in which we collaborated with other developers like @ShadowBMe as a tech, @exopta as a 2d artist, @Michael and @3N as composer and composer assistant. 

The idea was seeded in the Roles Reversed, the topic for the aforementioned jam. We followed the following string of thoughts: What if you play as a casino AI whose objective is to make the house earn as much as possible?  As soon as we started to design mechanics and assets, we developed many other ideas which could help our game to become a bigger and better one than the one we aimed to deliver. 

Since it was our first project and our first jam, the progress was slow, and we didn't have a functioning roulette system on time, but at least we managed to deliver one of the main scenes and working menus. Two weeks have passed since the deadline for the jam, and we have decided to continue developing this project. Our objective is to deliver a complete and fun experience, built of many parts and with some appealing characters. The game would satirize gambling institutions and try to educate players about what strategies they follow to earn all gamblers' chips. 

So let's say this post is the beginning of something bigger. Welcome aboard, we hope you enjoy the trip.
