(I am now in a rush to test as many games as possible to help, so please do not mind the cursory reviewing style.)

I find both the game page and game introduction well written! Attention was given to the atmosphere/setting.

instructions: misspelling forth for fourth

controls are QWERTY-only instead of layout-independent

enemies and animations (and the magician too) are super cute!! :) And the sword-wielding reminds me of Zelda

a bit hard to master what powers/skills you currently have, as this is quite a complex combination; although you get an idea visually, so not totally lost

can attack through walls; planned?

interactive tutorial/indications! (when opening first chest) Great.

second room: enemies have vision through some material (black tiles) but not walls, great! :)

Escape key quits; I think making it pause, or have some pause key, would have been nice. (mere detail!)

cool clone power

green cross for healing effect; a lot of nice visual special effects, actually

hard to avoid taking hits; maybe some shield-like mechanic would help? Or is it purposeful so that we clear the room as fast and efficiently as possible?

lost at about the fourth room; hard to survive (… especially with my AZERTY controls XD)

Conclusion:

Very cute game, full of careful details! (graphics AND story) A bit hard to master the power/spell system (I had trouble remembering when playing, to be honest… :S), but in a context where you have more time to learn, introducing the different dice one after the other could well do the trick.

Interpretation of the theme somewhat classic, although you took care to deal with the randomness as resulting in COMBINATIONS, which is more interesting.

Good gameplay too, although the game looks a bit hard for the moment. Should be easy to balance.

Very promising, especially for a first game jam. :) I am really fond of your cute style, I would have rather cuddled the enemies than stabbed them. XD

Thank you very much for such a thoughtful and detailed review! I'm glad you enjoyed playing, I've definitely learned a lot for next time :D
