Wow, I really like the music composition for this game, gives a melancholic vibe. The art for all the enemies was pretty good, but I don't think the playable character really fit with the rest of the artstyle and the world.

I would also rework the walking animation. A walking animation is something you are forced to look at the entire playthrough, so having a neat and cool-looking animation is a big win.

I like the design of the "tileset" of the world, but I think it would have been nicer with square edges, giving it a more solid and cold look. curves on enemies in fine since it gives them an organic and squichy feel, but for the floor I would want it to look hard and cold.

There was some nice platforming sections sprinkled within, which I think you should lean on more.

I am not sure how to finish the game. The boss gives you a new dice, but the text is blocked by the roof and you can't fully read it. The dice merchant guy (or whoever) also has a bug with his dialogue stacking, making it unreadable when you go back to him with the double jump.

I did enjoy the game a lot, congrats on submitting!

Collecting al 3 dice and bringing them to the dicemerchant counts as bearing the game

I dont think I was able to collect the dice after the boss. there was no change to his dialogue after bringing it.

A very fun platformer, I especially enjoyed the double jump level, very clever! Also, incredible art, well done! 

It's a great game, very creative. There are some cool Hollow Knight undertones sprinkled here and there. The biggest flaw of the game imo is the use of dice in jump puzzles. I don't quite get it do you have to throw the die shown in the signposts? Anyways i'm stuck in one of those jump puzzles in the game. If you record a walkthrough video ppl can play it to the end. Another thing is that there are no character animations, i guess you ran out of time for that and focused on gameplay which is fine. There's also a bug where after you die and respawn, dice you threw don't disappear, you may want to fix that in the post jam version of the game.  Nice work!

Developer

press left click to throw the first die in the direction you are looking . Press space while in air to build a plattform under yourself to jump again

yeah i did that but then i came to a place where there was a mushroom tramboline and for some reason mushroom doesn't make you jump higher here. I tried that strategy a lot of times but it didn't work so i thought maybe i'm doing something wrong or maybe i'm just incompetent i dunno

Developer(+1)

The mushroom only makes you bounce off higher if you don't jump at the same time. Also I recorded a full run:

2:05 this is where i got stuck. Thx a lot!

This game is really cool, I thought at first it got inispired by hollow knight(my fav game) then i found easter that literally have hollow knight statue, so I guess this game is inspired by hollow knight, I really like the game but I just getting stuck on the moving platform, I feel like doing hollow knight path of pain but without dashing. Anyway great game, great music and great game design(story is kinda weird). A bit laggy (prob because my com), lastly I got stuck on the 3 moving platform, and I couldn't figure out how to pass it, also I didn't figure that I can double jump from that dice, maybe make a clear show that you receive double jump power.
