This is probably my favorite one of this type of game I've seen this jam- I really liked how you added more than one die to the puzzles.

I liked the atmosphere and sound. I also liked that it had a story and cutscenes, but I would have preferred there was a downloadable version for people like me with slow browsers. Also a skip dialogue button wouldn't have hurt in that area. Still the game was unique and interesting.

Hero With 6 FacesThis was actually quite fun to play!
Well done on setting the mood with the introductory cutscene. A little too wordy for my taste, but it gets the job done. Consider making that part skippable.
Graphics are way too expensive for a puzzle game. Played on a tablet and it was struggling, with very low framerate. Consider improving the graphics performance.
The art and the amount of effort put in the presentation are commendable. I did not expect cutscenes. The puzzle are challenging as well! Great work

Keep it Rollin'Super surreal and polished game! I love the animation for the levels going in and out, it was super satisfying to watch. I got to the level pictured in the first screenshot.

Little DiceI liked that RNG was your nemesis haha! The aesthetics of this game was very unique and vibrant, and the puzzles assembling and dissembling as you solved (or failed) them was neat. I wasn't able to get past the 3rd puzzle, but I think that's the fault of my brain and not the game. The level design was good and introduced all the mechanics in a clear way. Nice work!

God doesn't play diceReally good gameplay idea, reminds me of Bloxorz. Here's my feedback for you:
- Intro should be skippable, it is too long.
- Pixel art font doesn't fit into the art style.
- Walls should be in a little different color than the floor (just for more visual clarity), although this didn't make me enjoy the game less, it's just an opinion.
- Level animations / transitions look great and how levels fall apart when you fail as well, it adds some flavor to the game, but these animations last for way too long.
All in all, good job!

God doesn't play diceThanks a lot for the feedback! Some of them will get into the next update for sure! About the intro not being skippable, that was a choice, because I think the animation was important for the whole experience. But I'm planning to add a new mode where you get to unlock and select only the stages, beside the story mode.
The art and sound effects/music are fine. The game is quite interesting visually. However, the background is maybe a little bit distracting.
Gameplay-wise, the game is a nice take on the theme. The only big downside I see is the time it takes to restart a level (the animations take too much time in my opinion).
Another downside would be the time it takes for a die to flip (it may seem short but when you have to do it many times, it seems quite long). And another one would be the camera angle, which doesn't allow to see that many sides of the dice. It would probably be better to choose an angle which allows to see at least 3 sides of the dice so that the player doesn't have to move them that much to figure out which face is on which side.
Also : I played in browser and in full screen mode, the game is quite a bit slower for some reason.
Other than those small downsides, the game is very dice.
