Nice visuals although a little cluttered and the randomness felt a little too unfair at times.
Still quite an enjoyable game, good work!
I love the style, but the way the game worked was a little confusing and it ended too quickly.
Awesome concept with awesome art! My only complaint is that it feels like it might lean a little too hard into randomness, for example with your max health being completely random and not having any way to make up for it elsewhere.
I loved the art in this game, the animations were great. The concept is strong, and when you lose you get that "maybe I'll try again now that I know better". 👍
The only nitpick I have is not seeing the enemy health. You gave us numbers on the dice, but we don't know how much health the enemies have. 🤔
Awesome art and animation, I'm a little confused by the gameplay though
The animations and art in general is fantastic!
The animations are amazing! Fun concept!
Very fun game, Although i dont really understand the dice, it was really fun. I made it 7 levels 😭
Texture for later received dices were ALL healing (green). Mouse over said different, but it got confusing....
Tried it again, did not only get healing second time - only attack... BTW Animations are fantastic!
This was a fun mechanic to play with! felt very good to roll a bunch of dice at once
Cool mechanic, reminds me of dicey dungeons, founda couple bugs where dice descriptions were wrong and used but had no effect but i really like where this game could go :)
Too much explanation.
Amazing art and animations! Gameplay could be a little bit more clear (for example a bit more explanation what each die does) but its quite fun! :)
This game seems really cool! I loved the art direction and the gameplay loop. There's really nothing to critique here. Only 1 annoying thing is that the enemies' health bars can sometimes reach zero but they kill you anyway, and the fact that you cannot combine healing and damage dice in the dice to roll section. I also love the title, and how it is a play on words, the fitting music and found the game very well polished. It baffles me how you would have made this in 50 hours! Excellent work. 5 stars all around!
The result of the rolls is not very clear it would be nice if I could see it before the effect is applied. The animation tho, superb! I wish this was a full mobile game.
Beautiful aesthetics with a genuinely cool mechanic. It comes across really well despite some rough edges others have mentioned, and I found myself replaying it a lot more than I should have!
I love the art style. Presentation wise one of the best games in this game. But I have 2 very very small problems:
The artstyle and the character design is really fun. Also quite a unique idea to have a dice building game, really fun.
This was quite fun, the art style and music and pretty nice. My only complaint about the game is needed to keep dragging the dice from slot to slot. If I was able to just click on any dice and have it automatically be grabbed this would be perfect!
The premise art style and animation of this game are top notch! Really fun! I ran into one bug: when you put the enemy drops directly into your roll bar and then hit proceed, they get destroyed. Maybe that's intentional I was just surprised my stuff disappeared haha!
