Lucky Dog Rise · published
During Steam Next Fest, I received lots of feedback from players and watched some streamers try the game.
Thank you all for taking the time to play Lucky Dog Rise! Based on your feedback, I've made a number of improvements to the beginner help, so players visiting the card table for the first time can get to know the game more easily.
In poker mode, move your mouse to the top of the table to open the help bar. From there, you can check the gameplay help and controls guide, or switch back to desktop pet mode. If you're unfamiliar with poker, the gameplay help includes examples of how to build a hand and a guide to hand rankings. You can check it whenever you want to learn which hands score points.
During play, notes will appear at certain moments to suggest what you can do next:
After you flip a card, a note will remind you to click the arm to exchange cards and settle the hand. If a hand doesn't score, you can also click the paytable to check the hand rankings.
You can click these notes to dismiss them, so they're there when you need them and out of the way once you've got the hang of things.
Improved the blind box reward display to make it less likely that repeated clicks accidentally skip the reward screen.
Thank you again for your feedback and support! If anything in the game is still confusing, please let me know.
