Building a deck for my Aggro Crab submission forced me to strip Jackstrap back to its clearest ideas. It also sparked a simpler way to show the game, alongside the online demo, main menu v1, and UI POC v0.5.0.
A musician friend made Jackstrap’s main theme and four variations. I wanted to thank them with something personal, useful, and a little ridiculous: a Moochi- and Jackstrap-branded bug zapper.
The UI is becoming functional, but seeing the whole game together exposed a real readability problem: Jack does not separate from the scene strongly enough yet.
