Sick game, it looks really nice. The only thing I feel you would need to do to make this a full game is add some spooky art for the characters, add some more visual/ audio feedback for damaging and getting damaged, add tooltips in case people are dumb and forget what things do, and add some more content. Now that I'm typing that out it seems like a lot, but visually and concept wise this game is public ready. Overall super well done. Have you perchance heard about dicey dungeons?

Thanks Manatee! I definitely agree on the "need to do points" - the feedback is super lacking for the actual combat and the tooltips are a bit rushed! And yes - I own Dicey Dungeons and I had a look at it for ideas! I couldn't remember exactly how it worked - and their style of assigning dice ended up being opposite from the direction i was wanting to head in, but I do really like it!
Also the locking mechanic is really cool, plus the whole adding new faces to your dies. I didn't see a way to refuse the upgrades though so I just had a trash can dice where I put all the upgrades I didn't want. The game reminded me a bit of Dicey Dungeons, which is why I asked, but that could possibly just because it has any dice in it whatsoever and I recently 100%ed that game LMAO
