How does your game fit the theme?
the player is a die, rolls themselves to determine the amount of steps needed to take before needing to use another dice and repeating this until all of the dice in the level have been collected

The Game looks very nice, but its not made for mobile.
no it is not, would i want to do so i wouldve probably easily ran out of time.
Great suggestion for when i rework this game at some point in the future
The game is visually cute; I especially like how the terrain is generated tile-wise (is this a Scratch feature or your work?). And the simple dice are fine with the global style.
Some thoughts:
Just one criticism about the editor: it would have been even better if you had shown the dice which the user has already placed; otherwise, one has to remember (or write down) which dice he has already set up.
It may be promising, but lacks mechanics for the moment. I see it as a ‘minigame prototype’; too bad you lacked time, because with some more mechanics, it could have posed a proper challenge to the player! I still commend you for having thought of and achieved the level editor. :)
PS: I see you indicated that you used pre-existing audio, but I heard none, so I guess you could have answered yes about having created it. The other entries without audio I have seen answered yes, which is more logical, after all. ;)
Scratch's name has a reason, you start from scratch so no, the tiles are not a built in scratch feature.
The reason i did not arrows was because the level editor remembers your inputs, if i included arrows this wouldve created longer booleans, which i wanted to avoid since i created a if statement with about 12 booleans (in scratch you can combine booleans with and and or's) in another project.
The collected dice do have an effect, try moving around without collecting dice. The number on the die adds to the amount of rolls you can do.
I wanted to add enemies but did not yet know how to do pathfinding and didnt want to follow a tutorial in a game jam
For the bug in level 3, every level activates the same script for the player, i cannot say more
About the level editor, yes i forgot to show the dice and made the three levels without realizing this.
And i made the level editor because i was too lazy and didnt want to make the levels by hand so i just shoved a little level editor in there
And for the audio, silence is not what i created so it was kind of a unpractical joke
Wow, so you handled how the tiles appear nicely! :) Great.
For the collected dice: oops, sorry, I missed that… :S There are so many games to test, it is easy for features to pass by the tester.
For the music: let’s say that The Sound of Silence is by Simon and Garfunkel, so that’s settled. X)
Thank you for your answers!
Interesting concept. Nice that you made a level editor!
many thanks, the three levels were made with the ingame level editor and i wanted to add more but didnt because i hadnt any patterns in mind. Would i revisit this then i would add more mechanics like enemies and such
Cute game had some fun, Good job :)
thanks! Did not expect people to actually like it since it has no sounds and the gameplay is kinda repetetive, if i revisit the project i will maybe add some more stuff
I request you to first go to a website named scratch, then make a project (if you do not have a acc press start creating, this will NOT require you to make an account) then press "file" in the top left corner and load from your computer. Then open the .sb3 file and press the green flag.
Please do this before leaving a comment saying you cant open it
Sounds simple enough. Nevertheless, I’m a bit worried for your entry because of the game jam rules… I think you should ask someone from the game jam if you are fine. I hope so!
Not sure if Scratch falls under the same category/case as Roblox for this rule…
well technically scratch is a game engine in a website so no need to download stuff. Unlike roblox with scratch you start from scratch (no physics, character movement etc) so as i understand it my submission should be fine
Great! :) You should still check with someone from the game jam to be sure (they seem to enforce the rules rather strictly…), just to know as early as possible. Good luck!
yes i am going to contact the administrators or such of the game jam, and if it gets disqualified i at least had fun coding this and knowing people like it
If i can find administrators at least
I really enjoyed the 3 mini puzzles and the fact that it has a level editor is mindblowing!
Nice job
thanks! I first wanted to make the levels by making a sprite for the path, but i eventually decided i wanted to make a level editor and used it to create the 3 levels in the game
Sorry to tell, but the file you've provided isn't enough to run a game.
cant open file
I request you to first go to a website named scratch, then make a project (i dont know if a account is needed for this) then press "file" in the top left corner and load from your computer. Then open the .sb3 file and press the green flag.
I don't know how to run the game
You need screatch to run the game! (Disclaimer for everyone)
