A math game, very cool! Cool fusion of a mathematical concept and the theme "dice".

Submitted

Really addicting gameplay. was super fun. Great entry!!

Submitted

Highly addicting! Smart way to use the theme! 

Submitted

I think adding in game tutorial would be nice. I wasn't 100% sure how it works.

Submitted

the button clicking felt nice

Submitted

The game is fun, but I don't really understand it.

Submitted

Description is kinda complicated. Tutorial would be nice. But overall I really enjoyed the game!

Psst! Rate my game too!

Submitted

As with others, I struggled a bit to understand how it works - thanks a lot, public school system!  Great job getting something submitted for the jam!

Submitted

Nice  math  game :) nicely done

Submitted

Hmm Idk how this works

Submitted

Ooooooh, math games, I love them!

It's really fun to try to get the lowest possible value, there's a lot of stats involved. If it had a gamemode wher you tried to reach an exact value, I would love to try it too.

Only thing to say: it would be great to have a log somewhere to know what were our previous rolls, and/or what additions were performed last turn.

But apart from that, it's a good idea and I really like it. Good submission! ^^

Pretty cool math game!

Not something I usually see in  game jams, so extremely unique in that regard. Sadly I couldn't figure out how to play but that could have been on me misunderstanding the instructions. Again, really unique entry, well done for thinking outside the box.

Submitted

Neat simple math game. Would love to see it developed with sounds and music. Good job.

Submitted

Took a second to pick up on how to play, but once I did it's an interesting puzzle game. Nice work. Simple and on theme.

Submitted

It took me time to really get it even with the instructions (maybe I am simply dimwitted) but once I got it I kinda enjoyed it, but it wasn't a game I could play for long

Developer(+1)

Yeah, the instructions aren't that good, so that's definitely something I should have built into the game. I came up with the idea pretty late into the jam, but I'm planning to release a mobile game version later this month where this concept is a key part of the story.

Submitted

It looks interesting, but I couldn't really figure out how to play.

Submitted

Nifty game! Somehow though on my first turn I got a score of zero from 6-8-6, but I thought that would make 2 (6+8+6=20, 2+0=2)? Otherwise seemed to work fine!

Developer

Thanks! When you choose two of the same number, the scores are swapped, so the first turn would be zero on both sides. The description isn't that clear so I'll make sure to work a lot on the tutorial when I release the mobile game based on this concept later this month.

Submitted

Oh now I remember reading that, I completely forgot about it!

Submitted

I was very confused as to how this worked

Submitted

Very interesting idea but there is no sound and music, and because of that you don't feel any impact when you choose and click buttons.
