I would love to see this be expanded upon! Somehow it reminds me of both Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz and Golf with Your Friends! XD Camera movement is definitely a little wonky and hard to control, but that happens with jam constraints! If you were to continue to work on this game, I would suggest adding a multiplayer mode! It was really cool that you were able to make AI for the NPC dice though! Great work!

How does your game fit the theme?
In this racing platformer, you must flick a dice around, so it fits literally, and your items are also tied to that roll, so it fits in yet another way!

Fun idea and it would works great as multiplayer game.
It was hard to understand when I have abilities and how they can be activated

Roll of the DiceAiming is really hard, but I like this game. It's pretty fun and graphic is also nice.
Submitted
Live or DiceThe game looks nice but it's really hard to aim due to the perspective. I think if you changed that it would much easier and more fun to play. Good job on making the opponents though!

The Dice SagaThe idea is pretty solid, it feels like a nice variation on the Mario-Kart idea. But the game is so hard! I found it very hard to judge where you’re gonna land with the mouse sensitivity being so high, and I could never keep up with the AI dices.
Also there are some camera issues when close to walls.
So, good idea, but would probably need more polish. :D

Role RollI loved the comment that said "the dark souls of dice-based racing games", on point haha.
Yeah a bit too hard for me, and I'm sensible to motion sickness, so I couldn't try hard for long sadly!
But the arts are nice and the fact that you added opponents is the little twist that make your game stand out, well done!

Elemental DicesNice Idea. I especially liked that you added bots/opponents. ^^
As other comments pointed out the main problems where keeping track of things due to 1) the mouse sensitivity (and sometimes the mouse seemed to randomly jump. Probably when something was loading a long time) and 2) the fact that you could sometimes not the the next platform you were supposed to jump to. The platforms were often below the one you are on. Maybe adding something so that you could fly above the dice with the camera and thus see the next platform would be nice. :thinking:
Anyways, good submission :)

Little DieI like the idea, and the frantic vibes very much. But the camera view/control sensitivity makes it really hard to "control" the game. Would make a wicked party game though!

Through the Dice TowerI like the idea of having slides that bring you down to the end quicker, I ended up going down it really slow though and had to wait a while. This could be expanded into a cool Golf with your Friends type game!

SnowDice - Winter Belongs to YouA bit hard to control and I got stuck in top view at one point, but the concept is very cool!

Meeple Jump - No Time to DiceAgree with the comment about the camera sensitivity but other than that I could see this becoming addictive. Flicking the die around was fun!

Good Times RollThe sensitivity for the camera was a bit too high on itch.io, otherwise really a nice idea and would love to see a more polished version of this game!
