Interesting... I think this could be a really cool and difficult puzzle game if you made the moves/rolls were predetermined and you could see them. I realize that's kind of against the theme of the jam, but still... at the moment it still feels a bit like a gambling game to me. I'd also suggest that if you use the mouse to select the direction, also use it to confirm it, just like in a shooter you wouldn't aim with the mouse and then shoot with the spacebar; you'd shoot with the left mouse button.
Thank you for the feedback and for playing our game! We definitely agree there is room for making it more skill based/strategic.
I really like the idea here, but I had a hard time actually winning because I couldn't figure out what determined how the dice would move the next turn, so I mostly just moved towards the goal until I was forced to restart. Maybe a good idea would be to create a target "region" with landing closer to the center being worth more "points" or a higher rank. That way players can still succeed, but if they want to get really good they have to better understand the mechanics. Nice work overall!
Thanks so much for playing! We appreciate the feedback ^_^
I wish we could play in the browser too
Same error here, the screenshot looks nice tho.
I get this error when I try to play the game
I'd love to play your game but for whatever reason when I click the executable my computer gives me an error saying 'The code execution cannot proceed because zlib1.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem'. I tried reinstalling but it didn't work. Let me know if you fix it!
Hi! Thanks for the comment! It seems that this issue occurs on some computers and not others. We forgot to include the zlib1.dll with our program unfortunately: when we tested on our computer it worked fine without it. We asked in the discord and we’re not allowed to reupload the zip with the dll or link it.
If you upload it as a different game on itch and send me the link then I can play and give you a rating for it on this page!
We would love to but unfortunately the rules state that it is not allowed, so we'll have to wait until the rating period is over. Thanks for trying though! We really appreciate it <3
ahh gotcha. make sure you send it over afterwards then!
