Excellent work! Looks great and it was fun, too.
Feels like pro made game ! really polished, funny dialogs and cool art
Thank you! We just released a v2 :)
Fantastic idea, very polished. Could see a lot of people having played this!
Thank you! We just released a v2 :)
Cool idea and narrative)
The game overall feels finished and even polished, like OG flash games
Liked the dice mechanics which changes and become more complicated over time with new dice discovery)
Thank you! We just released a v2 :)
Beautiful art and well polished.
Thank you! We just released a v2 :)
This game is so beautiful and creative! The dices and the challenges are perfectly complementary and balanced. I completed the game several times in order to see everything.
Would love to see a boardgame with these dices!
(Hey, is this a kingdom hearts sound effect when we collect a new dice?)
The game looks really cute and polished. I believe there is a thing where when you go back a screen where you have repeating dialogue I wish there was maybe an option to skip that or to somehow blend tha tout. Besides that very cute game and i am hoping for an even better post gamejame version!
The post game jam version with the fixes people asked for is ready, let’s wait for the voting to end! Thanks and good luck to you 😁
So polished! amazing art and presentation, and the idea was well executed - well done :D
Thank you! We just released a v2 :)
Extremely fun concept!! I think the animations were a bit slow, but other than that loved it! Would have loved to see more, and some original music and audio!
The music that plays over the ending scene is original 😁 The rest is assembled from copyright-free music and sound effects. I don’t know many sound artists, unfortunately 🥺
Well, next time you do a jam, hit me up! I do music and audio!
Good to know 💪🏻
Really cool game. The art was great, the dice mechanics were solid, and I really liked the addition of the time limit always looming over you.
Thank you!
This was great to play through! I thought there was some decent depth to the dice throwing gameplay due to the multiple dice you could unlock and the different paths you could take through the map combined with the time limit (I was taking my time to explore on the first attempt, then ran out of time and took a much more strategic path next time round)
The different dice reminds me a bit of the character specific dice in Super Mario Party, it is interesting when you get more of an ability to influence your rolls. I appreciated the different challenges and there's certainly potential to expand this in a larger game. A few rough edges like the repeating dialogue but there's definitely some good design in here!
This was such a fun game to play! It's extremely polished and has a great goal. The in between dialogue was a great addition, and the map--just mm very entertaining. I love that it doesn't take itself too seriously. I think the only thing that could be improved on was the issue of replaying scenes (like meeting new dice) every time you returned to a square. It slowed down the pacing and kinda brought me out of it because of needing to rapidly click through the dialogue. Other than that, amazing work. Definitely will be playing again since I ran out of time the first time^^
Thank you, yeah is a disastrous bug we introduced when fixing another one just before the deadline :/ Will be fixed in the postjam.
The Presentation is really well done! the art and transitions and everything feel really polished! The text could be just a smidge faster but overall the game was fun and I like the characters!
Thank you . Glad you had a good time!
Stellar presentation, the visuals and audio feel super polished! The dice variety was super fun and the characterization made finding new ones a joy : )
Thank you very much. Glad you had a good time!
Pretty fun! Strategically choosing dice to go for specific goals instead of just trying to get the highest number is pretty cool.
Mostly I just have nitpicks, but those nitpicks were enough to hurt my enjoyment. Text is so slow, and having a new conversation in nearly every room made me just start skipping through it pretty early on. Repeated text (especially the "go find more dice if this is too hard!" when resetting your roll) kinda tested my patience. And the close map button not being in the same place as the open map button irritated me every time I looked at the map.
But I played through to the end despite these nitpicks, which is more than I can say for a lot of other games, so clearly it didn't ruin the experience.
Thanks!
What this jam taught us is that we need more playtesting…
Since you were bugged by the map and that was high on our list of post-jam fixes, I can spoil you with the new UI implemented this morning:
It should be easier to use the map 😁
Very good game! The graphics are awesome and the dice adding mechanic is nice! The only thing I didn't like was that the dialogue replayed every time I went back somewere I had been before but other than that its an excelent game.
Thank you, yeah is a disastrous bug we introduced when fixing another one just before the deadline :/ Will be fixed in the postjam.
Wonderful graphic, nice word play on the name (and other references in the game to the real world) ;) I enjoyed the dialog system but I wish I could skip them on places I have been before.
Thank you, yeah is a disastrous bug we introduced when fixing another one just before the deadline :/ Will be fixed in the postjam.
Thank you!
Amazing work! I love it that every dice have their own personality! Other than make the dialogue and transition faster, I think this is really well done! Good job!
Thank you!
5/5 incredible work, everything fit together nicely, it's charming, fun, the pace is good. I truly did not saw time pass while playing it. Now I just want more !
Thank you!
