Really cool! I like how you need to think carefully about how you rig the dice as affects both you and your enemy. I also like how there's quite a few ways for the player to affect the outcome (choosing which dice to rig and how, choosing a weapon and shield) so it's not all down to RNG.
The main issue I noticed was one that other people have already mentioned - battles becoming stalemates after a while. As I'm writing this I'm currently stuck in a never-ending battle with Tiberius haha. 🤣
Overall, great game!
I loved this take on "rigging dice", and while I took a more straightforward approach I thought this was a brilliant way of nudging the odds in your favor without making it too easy. Loved the crowd in the background as well :D
It's funny. I really liked the crowd animation that much that that was the thing I was spending my attention on.
The game play is very unique. The only thing is that the fight itself feels like a loading time :(
