Very nice game! Love the art and sound design :D Also it's a cool idea to be able to "build your own dice"

Man, the artwork of this game is fantastic! I love it! The game idea was also pretty cool and unique and interesting, but I felt like I had a little too little control over the outcome of my turns. Sure, the whole theme of this jam was "Roll of the Dice", but I still didn't really feel like there was a lot I could to when my die just didn't roll any armor spells 5 times in a row or so.

I think if you want to expand on this idea, you might need to find a way to give some more control to the player. I'm not really sure what's the best way to do that, but I feel like you can work something out. Also, some sort of power and difficulty progression, as well as more interesting enemy patterns would probably help to make the game feel a little less repetitive.

One more thing I really want to praise is that the UX design (apart from some hitbox issues) is pretty good. Hovering over symbols to see what they do works great and so does color-coding consumable spells. Kinda wish I'd still be able to see the enemy's intent when building my die, but that's a minor issue.

Great art style. I like how we had a similar idea of creating a dice wizard

This art style is amazing and the fact that this was done in 48 hours is very impressive, good job!

The art style is sooo gud. I would buy this from steam if it was a full game! Only possible criticism is to make the hitbox for dragging new dice sides in more generous- It was a bit tedious to try and align it close enough to trigger

I absolutely love this wacky art style, i had fun playing! A bit broken but it eventually worked out, good job! 

(p.s, I would appriciate it if you could try out my game aswell! It is really short so it wouldnt take long)

Loved the art style.  Encouter some bugs. Attack can't drag on the dice sometime. I cannot roll or open Dice menu when the monster with appearance of number 1 showed up.
