A downloadable game

Risk of Ruin is a poker player lifestyle simulator, where you manage a struggling poker player through ups and downs on his quest to pay the rent.

This is a work in progress.

Your player automatically plays cards when your at the table while you control the rate time passes.

Stats like energy are used to study and play. Buying more chips, getting stacked, winning and losing big pots, having a large or small bankroll, and bad events effect mood. Energy and Mood impact your Discipline, Stamina, Perception, and Knowledge.

Discipline is important for winning small pots and not losing too many large ones.
Stamina decreases energy loss while playing.
Perception allows you to isolate players more often.
Knowledge increases your large pot win rate.
Wisdom decreases mood reduction when bad events happen.

Isolate players and learn to exploit their mistakes.

Awesome idea and so far so good, really glad to see something like this being made as I feel like it's been missing and nearly every other poker game is focused on playing poker itself rather than the lifestyle aspect of it. Let me know if you want any help!

Couldn't agree more! If you happen to be an artist , that is where I need the most help.
