A pretty original and fun idea, congrats on finishing the jam !

Really cool that you were able to pull off such a polished game! Amazing, good job!

Die Sorcerer!Let's play 8-Ball!
Fun take on the Pool format! It's like adding Mario Kart power-ups (or debuffs, I s'pose) into a pool match. What side of the ball it lands on could use a little bit of visual clarification, and a personal nitpick of mine is it'd be nice to speed up the CPU's shots so one can get to the playing part quicker, but quite dig this take otherwise!

Board SweepersVery fun take on pool, and I quite liked how the dice theme came into it. I didn't encounter any issues, and it was very nice to see a two-player game in here.

Meeple Jump - No Time to DiceNice to see another sport get some love. I liked the idea, but I do think a few things could be changed to make it much better. I think its a little slow and having no control over power is a little frustrating. I also think pool rules should have been followed a bit better, for example getting a ball in should give you another shot.
This is a really good start, great work!

Spiteful DicerollThe pool physics feel pretty good. I like the design of the balls -- black dots on colors vs colored dots on black. That's pretty clever. The random effects add an interesting touch and don't detract too much from normal pool. Visuals and audio are nice!
