It's quite pretty. Surprised more people haven't given this a go just because of the art.
Game is cute, but I suppose a bit finicky and and slow.
Managed to parkour outside of the first zone though so that's cool.

Fairly well made though, nice that the squirrels help you out.

Thank you for your comment and feedback! I am glad to improve my game with your opinion! I want to know about  "finicky and and slow" could you explain more?

It's just like the world is fairly spread out and takes a while to move around but movement doesn't feel all that speedy, especially when carrying a dice.  
Rolling a die is pretty finicky considering you need a certain outcome but have no control over it, but this feels like an inherent problem and a lot of jam games have similar issues with this theme.
And stuff like the first platform after the starting area isn't very intuitive on what the dice are doing to affect the platforms and it's easy to think you need to roll the dice on the platform (still not really sure) but the dice is so bouncy it easily falls off and is frustrating.
And trying to do the platforming around the level it's easy to fall off, and the respawn point is far back and makes you walk all the way.
Oh and the mouse cursor isnt locked to the screen so that was annoying as well.

Hopefully that helps you get the idea.

This game looks amazing! Although the controls feels a little rough! Well done!

This was fun and interesting! The overall mechanic is a little bit confusing, only because it's not very clear if the different parts of the world are affected by raw numbers, or position of the specific dice, or what; but the movement was fun and the level areas were nice.

Thank you for your comment! I think so, the mechanic is a little bit confusing. and there is no tutorial and not enough hint. I must be improved! Thank you once again
