How does your game fit the theme?
Each turn, dice are rolled that the player uses to assign actions to their athletes. Some actions only accept certain dice values, so you need to plan your moves carefully. When athletes attempt to move through each other, dice are used to determine the victor. Sports often come down to a lucky bounce here or there and in this case those bounces are everywhere.

really cool, also feels very polished for a 48 hour time frame
I really appreciate you saying that because polish and focusing on the core gameplay loop were my top priorities for this jam :)
i have been playing this game for 45 minutes pls send help
lol k veri epic azz game :D
Thank you that's very kind!
Had me going for quite a while, very fun to play and think around x3
Nice game idea and cool graphics ! nice entry too !!
I don't usually play these types of games, but this one seems pretty fun to play. Idea is solid. All in all i liked it, having music would be nice tho, but i understand xd. Good game!
Its not same but remind me blood bowl. I feel same things while playing this :D Nice work !
That's a very kind comparison and definitely an inspiration of mine :)
oooh. I was super confused at first but I ended up really liking it. Super original take on a game. Some ingame tutorial would be nice but overall really nice entry. Good job!
I definitely agree. Next time I'll spend a little more time making it clear what the player needs to do. Thanks for playing!
Pretty cool! Maybe some powerups could be a good idea, re-rolling one of your dice, etc.
Thank you! I was very close to adding another class with an ability to re-roll dice but didn't have time to fully implement
This is a great turn based strategy game. The use of dice, and options really add depth to the overall gameplay. Great Game!
Thank you!
A bit confusing at first, but overall very good and "simple" (once you understand that you gotta click to make them do something ahaha, stupid me). Also, the AI scored for me somehow?
Haha yeah the AI is not very smart. Each turn, they'll first see if they can score and if not they'll see if they can gain possession. So likely they saw a move that gained possession but they have no concept of their own goal so didn't understand the consequences of their actions lol
Fantastic game. Really good use of theme. Small bug: you can cheat and drag a used dice into an empty spot. The game is really well designed. I had fun playing it. Would love to see different variation or expansions. Great job.
Thanks that's a good catch! I definitely had lots of ideas I had to leave on the cutting room floor :)
Unfortunately, I can't figure out the controls!
Ah darn I was worried I didn't make that clear enough. You click the dice in the lower left and drag them to a slot associated with each athlete. Then valid tiles will highlight for you to select. Thanks for mentioning, I'll update the description :)
