Interesting mechanic! The tutorial does feel incomplete and it took my a while to try to understand it. The game also crashed sometimes when I used the sigils. Still nice!
I don’t know if it needs a clearer tutorial, or more indications during the end of a turn (maybe a window recaping what’s happened?), but I was kinda confused as to what happened and why I died multiple times 😅
Nevertheless, it’s a good submission!
Really liked the dice linking mechanic, I think there is a lot of potential for this design and could work well on Mobile. The music is nice too. Good job!
It's an interesting idea. I wish the tutorial was a bit more thorough, I never understood why I took damage. Otherwise cool.
An interesting game. Really like the enemies that player fights in this game. I think that maybe you could add a combo system or make it more turn-based to extend the strategy and possibilities in this game, but current version is already fun to play!
Nice!

Great sound design, aesthetic, and good gameplay loop. Fits the theme very well.
honnestly, i have some difficulty how to play this game. but this is a realy well thought work. the menu work well, the tutorial is helpfull, the music is charming, i just have some difficulty how to play it.
Great work :-)
Loved the pixel art, and music. Gameplay was a little tough to pick up at the start, but enjoyed the concept as the game went on. Can definitely see this making a neat little mobile game!
It was a little tough figuring out how the game worked, but I really enjoyed it once I did understand! This was such a blast to play and it's so satisfying to string together a really long chain of dice! :>
I can say you added a wonderful amount of juice to your pixel art. The game was a bit tough to understand at first, but then I understood it (I think) reading your tutorials more carefully, so well done on making them! Overall, nice idea! It could be easily be taken further with some additions to the mechanics
I liked the song and the whole presentation but it took a long time to figure how the game worked, the tutorial didn't seem to help much.
Sorry, there is an extended tutorial in the description of the game, I hope it helps.
Thanks for playing btw!
Ok I just finished playing your game and honestly I had a lot of fun with it. It took me a good while to figure it out but when I did, it got really good. I'd say the only issue may be that sometimes the dice rolls you get simply aren't enough to win the battle. Idk if I was doing something wrong but I died a lot lol. Regardless, it was pretty fun trying to find paths to deal the most damage. Great job!
Tutorial isn't that straightforward but I had fun once I figured it out. Suffered from one crash issue, but really great presentation and a unique take on the concept!
I am really sorry for the crash, I thought I fixed it ,_,
I am happy you had fun, thanks for playing!
I really like the concept but it just kind of feels like you die sometimes and its hard to understand if youre doing well or badly. Really like the general gameplay loop tho and its a lot of fun when you get into a rhythm
Interesting concept! The art is very clean and I love the overall aesthetic of it. I agree with the others that the tutorial is very hard to understand. Took me a few rounds of the game to finally get what i was supposed to be doing.
Nice game! GJ!
nice game! the concept is cool and the art is great
It did crash tho (at a moment when i used a sigil)
I tried to fix that issue, will do it after the jam version, i do not know why it does that, probably something with the while loop I made lol
Very nice particles and bouncing and pretty creative interpretation!
The tutorial was a bit confusing, when it said white dice add damage to the enemy, i thought i needed to use them as much to damage the enemy, which led to me making a crazy combo and just insta killing myself xd.
ah yes, the game would be easy if white dice added damage to the player :P
Interesting take on the theme! I agree that the tutorial was hard to understand... I tried chaning the dice as much as possible (using white dice to make bigger lnks) and then pressing right click to deal damage but I still died... so I'm definitely doing something wrong there.
Still a fun game with very nice graphics! :)
White dice add damage to the enemy! Try to use them as little as possible :D
Thanks from playing nonetheless, maybe will add some instructions into the description.
Ahhh that makes so much more sense! I read the tutorial way too fast I think. I'll try it out again later then :)
