Game looks awesome and the dice mechanic is pretty nice. I only wish player was a bit faster :) Good job!

I really liked it when I could bounce a dice off a knight's head and catch it midair, that was sick.

I like the mechanics. Character felt a little slow/floaty/unresponsive, and the environment was a bit flat, but the designs were nice! Overall pretty creative entry. :)

Is this the dark souls of dice themed game jam games? not quite but the mechanic is cool and has the main skeleton of a cute art style.
That's really cool that you also made the music for the game aswell however it did need to loop a bit better and im not sure if its just my end but there was some crackling on the high parts of the song. Maybe with a dive dodge + longer  faster dice throw + quicker dice grab the game would feel very tight when fighting lots of enemies. Overall though i do like this concept Good job! 

I like the general idea of attacking by throwing dice, while having to catch it afterwards - nice conflict of intentions. Though I think the movement is bit clunky for a game that relies on a physicality of the actions to be fun. 

This was a cool twist on the theme. Top marks! I loved how I basically ended up playing volleyball with my enemies, instead of fighting lol - and I really like the penalty system as a concept, though I barely felt punished; rather challenged instead. And my curiosity drove me to drop the dice on purpose, just to switch it up a bit. Which may be a good thing, but I don't think it works an an incentive to actually have to catch it, if that's what you were going for (since the dice is cursed). Maybe if the penalties would accumulate, you'd really be forced to be more careful / strategically? - Eventually I ran into like 4 little dudes and the game crashed tho. Maybe worth looking into your event system.

This was a very creative take on the theme! I liked the upgrade system when you die. Good job!

Great game again this year :D

There are many things that I loved about this game. I liked that  you choosed to make luck not the core gimmick. That is very unique for this game jam. The juggling mechanic was also very fun to play with. What also was very cool was that when you died you didn't just respawned but had the chance to skill up.

The art also looked very nice although there is  obviouly some finishing up to do.

This was definetly a highlight for me. Great work ^_ ^

I think that is the kind of game where if the idea is great, art and polishing doesn't matter. Btw music fit very well the mood of the game

I really like the idea of having to juggle the dice, but I feel like it would've worked better with more vertical enemies/level design. It was always more interesting when the enemies were up on platforms rather than on the ground.

I really enjoy this game. The fighting mechanic is awesome and the grapich and the audio also great.

Nice work

I was really jamming to that music there! GG! I think I beat it then??

Very cool game and excellent take on the jam theme. I like the idea of having to keep the dice spinning. I did my best for a while... but then it fell... and I got lunar gravity?? And then I let it drop some more and then realized maybe the dice isn't so cursed! Good idea to have a leveling system too when you die, always helps those who may need a boost. Might not have really been needed since I think this was pretty short... but still cool. I also liked the monster design.

Anyways good job to you and the team for putting this together!! 

This game was fun! I think that most of the curses weren't really very negative, and so I didn't really feel like I needed to keep it off the ground.

Background art and character art is good, just needs some work on foreground elements as well, I'm guessing you ran out of time.

Music is nice, fits the game well.

Roguelike system albeit a bit basic makes it more approachable to people who have trouble completing the game, that's a nice touch even if that was unintentional.

Game fits the theme well unlike *cough* *cough* my game. All games that i played had dice/rolling being something positive, this game subverts the expectation by making it a double edged sword, you can kill enemies with a die, or, you could miss and get a negative buff.

Negative abilities don't affect the gameplay all that much, they're just annoying.

Not a lot of animations, particles, etc, you don't necessarily have to draw a new animation, you can use squash and stretch, interpolate, scale up and down, rotate. There's a lot of things you can do with only that.

You can't see die sides, so it's impossible to tell on which side it will land until it lands, doesn't affect the gameplay, but it feels way more random when you don't even have illusion of choice.

You can walk backward while moving forwards and vice versa, i know why it works the way it does, but it looks wrong.

My audio was crackling, not sure why, didn't have any issue with other jam games.

Enemies don't seem to know how to jump on platfroms, or rather, they're trying, but can't seem to get on them.

You did your best, i can see how this game can be great but it's not quite there yet.

It’s really nice how you go from “how the heck am I supposed to not let it fall” to “oh, this is actually really fluid and fun” I can totally see this evolving, maybe with powerups and more levels

I found myself throwing the dice to the ground just to see what curses were available xD I liked the moon gravity one the most, but I am not too sure about the delayed jump one. It is a cool mechanic but I kept forgetting I had it and thinking it was just bad input handling (I am sure this can be fixed with some sort of visual queue though).  Had fun playing it :D

Btw, I found a bug where you can throw the die inside the room and the door will close leaving the player locked outside.

The game has some surprisingly fluid combat for something so simple. Keeping the dice airborne has this really satisfying feeling like building a really high combo in an action game, especially when it repeatedly bounces on an enemies head. A more advanced combo system could totally be built from this if given more time. Great game overall :)

Great work! I love the idea! You could really expand upon this for a future release :)
