I really liked the art. It reminded me a bit of Terraria. The controls within the world is a good idea but because they don't stand out from the world they're not that visible. (At least the E) The character's jumps felt a bit off but I really liked the animations. As you're using Godot I can give some tips regarding the "walking animation in air"-problem.

If you're using

move_and_slide()

You can do something like this

var direction = ... # Your way of getting Input
var speed = ... # Your way of setting the players speed
if direction.x < 0:
    $Sprite.set_flip_h(true)
elif direction.x > 0:
    $Sprite.set_flip_h(false)
if direction.x != 0:
    if is_on_ground():
        pass # Play walk animation
    else:
        pass # Play in air animation
move_and_slide(direction * delta * speed, Vector2.UP) # Vector2.UP is needed here

Hey, fun game, love the simple pixel art, the mechanic is a great idea!

Tho I found some "bug" not sure I went thru the tutorial and 2 levels after, but then the play button didn't work at all...

This was such a well-made game! Presentation, sfx, music were all incredible. I think the tutorial definitely needs to be revised--had to look in the comments to figure out what to do.

Unfortunately, I was only able to play the second level, as I tried to load the next ones, but I kept getting errors in the command line. Possibly tied to this, the tutorial cut off at the rolling the die part. I was able to see the up to the 2nd one, and it kicked me back to the home screen.

I would also suggest adding a way to return to the main menu, since I was only able to get back to it through restarting the app. Nonetheless, it was a unique take on the theme and would love to see this fleshed out into a full game. Great work^^

In my opinion I find that this game has a lot of potential, heck the idea itself deserves it's own commercial release, however there is still a lot to be improved on this game:

>The tutorial level needs a lot of refining, I was confused and I thought the game was broken at first until I pressed R on my keyboard by accident, maybe try using more color or obvious visual hints when making the tutorial, since the first the thing the player is gonna experience.

>The die needs to have a hint at it's "density" ability, say I get 1, then when I pick up the die it should be too light to control, 2 is more controllable, 3 is completely controllable, 4 is a bit heavy, 5 is really slow when moving the cursor.

>There are some glitches that I experienced when playing the game:

• when respawning the die using Q sometimes it spawns inside of a wall
• in the second level the die kept making sound effects after leaving one of the screens
• the water (low gravity thing) needs to be scaled down a bit in the second level at the final screen

Anyways this was my overall experience with the game and I hope the game succeeds and it's dev team :)

amazing game! this might be ONE of the only games i'm gonna keep on my computer from this jam!

Very cool game! Love the art and sound design and the mechanic also feels fun! I liked this little series of puzzles!

Hi! I played through the tutorial and level 2, it's been a bit hard for me to really understand and remember the controls, especially since I'm playing on a french keyboard layout...but that's not really your fault.

Apart from that, the sound is nice and the art even nicer, congratulations!

Wow, incredible game! It took me a moment to realize there was a level two, and then it took me a long, long time to realize the dice could be rolled. I spent a lot of time throwing the dice up with a combination of moving my mouse and jumping to hit it against the button above, and trying to run through the door for the split moment it was open. After a while of trying that, I decided to go check the instructions on the game page... Whoops!

That aside, presentation is incredible, art is incredible, animations are incredible, sound design is incredible, and the concept is extremely creative, and I can imagine there's a lot of room for great puzzle and level designs with the mechanics presented. I can see some of the complaints below about the randomness of the dice, and while of course that's the whole conceit of the game, considering the game jam theme, I'm not really sure what the best alternative would be. Maybe there could be an element of skill involved, for example, the roll you get depends on when the dice hits an object, so you have to set up the trajectory of the roll, or distance from a wall, to get the number you want? (I'd imagine something like you can see the dice flipping through the options, and the options it's on when it hits something is what it switches to, like the minigames from some mario games.) I'm not sure if that would make it more or less frustrating, but it would definitely make it more skill based than chance.
