Awfully addicting. Online leaderboard is a great idea. Game is actually better than first impression - I was thinking it's only rolling but it is a gambling game (almost as my game) xd

ALEA IACTA EST [GMTK 2022 Game Jam]The gameplay is more than simple but everything around it (graphism, online score leaderboard,…) is really well done. You get caught in the game easily to try to improve your score. With 1 chance over 3 to draw a six, you often loose your points and it can be a little frustrating. A replay button would be nice for when we have a six at your first turn.

GREEN MOONOMG the aesthetic is so pleasing, and the wood dice's sound too. You took such a simple idea and just executed it flawlessly. This is a game I'm going to show to my friends and do stupid battle with. Congratulation, this is amazing !

The Gossip VillageIt is unfair! You are trying to get 5 stars from me by hitting me straight into my gambling addiction. Also my compliments for not giving up after "wasting" 24 hours on a scrapped project.
I created a gambling game too, come take a look!

Easy pokerThe aesthetics are an instant 5 from me - the game looks stunning and the ambient sound adds a lot. This is definitely the most addictive jam game I've played (especially because of the leaderboard). It has that "one more game" feeling that makes you never want to stop playing. The simplicity it doesn't hold it back either, and really it makes it thrive. Well done!!
Good job on not quitting, I know the feeling and it's v hard to keep going. Also congrats on the marriage!!

Tic Tac RollA simple, yet addictive game! The leader board was a stroke of genius, kept me playing for way too long. Unfortunately, the sixes just love me.. especially when I get too greedy and keep going! haha! Full marks for atmosphere, one can only dream of being on beach, just throwing dice! I also read your post on having to pivot half way through the jam, I can totally relate... great that you managed to turn it around, well done on a game well made, and another game jam conquered! :D and oh, congratulations on the upcoming marriage, levelling up in life too! ;)

This is how I rollBoring as hell, no game at all, wasted half of hour. 1st place, 75 points.
Presentation topssss. Probably if there was no high score table I would've dropped it quickly, but it became competitive. Good game!

Elemental Dice WalkingNice! This game was very addicting, thanks to the leaderboard which was a great addition. :D
Managed to get myself in the top 10 (please don't knock me out haha)

All Dice, No MarblesNice game, pretty well polished :)
I'm taking my 27 points back home, thank you very much. I'm not a patient man.
I wish there was more of an incentive to play again, like a temporary leaderboard, or using the points for something, but I read that you started again from scratch so it's understandable.
Great job!

Roll it like you mean itThe graphics are incredible! The gameplay is simple, yet so addictive.

Don't Roll OneI understand now why gambling addictions are a thing. Very simple, but the visuals really pull you in, along with the addictive mechanics. Nicely done!

Johnny Bones: The House Always WinsEven though the gameplay was simple, the graphics made the game feel relaxing, like a true "Pair-a-dice" :)

Windy with a Chance of TornadosIt's a nice, simple game. The presentation is really nice and calming, and although it comes down to almost complete luck, I still had fun.

The Six-Sided SituationIt's a bit too simple for my liking but the presentation is top notch.

Idle Dice RollerYes, definitely the simplest game I could have possibly chosen. Maybe. But I'm glad you appreciate the polish! To be transparent, I had a completely different game I was working on for the first 24 hours of the jam, but ultimately made the hard choice to completely scrap it and start over, hence the very small scope.
