I played this game! Sorry you hadn't gotten any feedback here yet.
I really loved the dilemma of the main character that he loves the gambling life but he only wants the girl if she turns back from going straight. It was a nice reveal at the end that she'd genuinely grown up and moved on and was happy with her straight laced man.

Awesome job!

I enjoyed this game - the b&w style was great as was the choice of background music throughout.
There were maybe some parts of the story where it moved quite quickly for me, I think from memory that was in the second half of my playthrough. But not so much as to be majorly jarring or anything!
Interesting game, I look forward to your future works!
