I also enjoyed this game. Doesn't seem like you've given any update to this game in terms of fleshing it out into a full game since it's been made. So, like most, I assume this is about the extent that we will ever see from this game. I do agree with those who wish or would like you to expand it. What you have here was executed well. Its simplicity leaves plenty of room for ideas. The game has great potential. Looking at your catalog, I'd say this one has the most potential.
I cannot offer any reward, but as fan of this game, I challenge you to give this game more attention. What stands out to me is that it fits in perfectly with similar small modern indie games. It has a pixel theme which is done well and the pixel aesthetic is popular at the moment. It has a puzzle like foundation that a lot of games like this have. It uses dice which are always fun because dice offer a lot of freedom when it comes to game mechanics. Purchasing dice allows this game to have a solid dice deck building structure which also fits in with a lot of popular indie games. The color palette is clean and simple. The sounds are enjoyable.
Any who, thank you for a fun little game. I appreciate it for what it is.
I think this is a really cool idea for a game and I hope you expand on it. I think it really really needs some kind of time limit (think the ghost, from Spelunky). This, along with better level design, would make the poof dice more interesting/useful immediately. Also, I think an "event" based progression (like Slay the Spire) would be far more interesting than the simple shop at the end of the level.
Oh now this is a fun idea, very creative! use of traditional TTRPG mechanics! If you're ever looking to expand on this, it could be interesting to use other TTRPG dice? (d20, d12, d8, etc.)
wow, this game is great, one of my favorites of the jam! i'll be looking forward to the devlog! (FEEDBACK: i think it is very well made, but i have one problem, you die after only one hit, i think at least two lives could make it less punishing. maybe a normal, and hard mode?) (yes i remember the video where you said you prefer to call it normal, instead of easy, lol. :P)
Very cool idea, drag and drop feels a bit sluggish and there needs to be some form of limitation to infinite rerolls (maybe a variety of ennemies would help too).
teleport dice are mostly inferior to attack dice which makes buying them pointless cause your money is probably better spent buying attack and removing move dice. But with more time to develop interesting level that balance could change. Other type of dice could be cool too.
Not being able to see the dice bag content also makes it feel a bit less strategiic and a bit more "shuffle around and end turn until you got what you need".
I recognize the art ;) Was stalking Kenney website lmao. Sick presentation on the itch page and love the concept! I do think the ghost and coin overlap is a bit funky
Love the gameplay, but need a bit pressure. also the controller feel a bit uncomfortable, I would make it a bit less restrictive on the drag and drop then put it almost exactly to it. other than that. I love it and hope you add endless mode.
Really needs some time pressure to encourage riskier play, it is just simply too methodical and easy while the mechanics could have more depth. Like more enemies spawning the more turns you take. I could take everything very slow because I would just re-roll until I got the exact number to get to. Also, after enemies are cleared, it is trivial work to walk around collecting the money and leaving, I'd either have that auto collect and end the level without you having to putter around the stage OR I would just have a turn limit, or maybe enemies take more hits if you wait around too long, or maybe enemies enter the stage if you take too many turns. It could be like golf, where par is the level as is, and then anything above par would have some sort of pressure to encourage the player to finish the level quickly, like the ghost in Spelunky.
I LOVED his game! For being a lot of luck, I still felt fun playing, and I wasn't getting cheated on. I also was able to finish the game which was cool. And are the levels randomly generated? Even if they are not, they are super fresh and a pleasure to play.
Fun game, however, my character got of center somehow.
The Movement is interessting, but once the enemys are dead getting to the End gets annoying. Maybe making it auto next level once the Player killed all enemys would help.

its very fun for some time
I really love this game but if it were procedurally generated, or just had more levels it would be so much better
I got softlocked inside a wall somehow

great game
I had a fun time playing this, maybe you could give it an update?
Really fun concept, I hope you make something bigger in this style someday.
NIce one, as allxays with you ;)
This was awesome! But I think more levels would be nice.
I had lots of fun with this game. (Maybe a sequel?)
You should expand on this and make it a mobile game
This game is so fun love the mechanics
made it to the end having collected E V E R Y S I N G L E C O I N .
cool
Great game! Had a blast.

The game was really great though I think you should add a more difficult mode where you only have 1 dice other than that great game!

I agree, 123 and arrow keys seems appropriate for this. Maybe teleport dice should be "move up to x spaces" but mor expensive.
neat game, like the randomized movement options
the poof dice kinda suck though, I found literally one position where I would have found it useful and it didn't even appear

One of the best game i've ever played, i wish it had an endless mode but playing the game all over again is still okay.
this is a great game :)
Fun, intuitive, super easy to understand and very polished. The shop made me get those coins !
This was a very fun and innovative game. Great work!
I love this game and how it looks! I'm very happy that I could play this a couple days after you finished it. 10/10
Really fun game. Is such a great randomized puzzle game. Extremely enjoyable.
I realy liked this

I could totally imagine a real game out of this. Lots of ways to improve, with different obstacles enemies or abilities.

Cute game! I liked it a lot. It's also one of two fun ones I've seen in the jam (mine doesn't rank among that number lol)
Love it. can you rate my submision at https://sgt-pickles7042.itch.io/cardini.
What a original game ! COngrat's !
at this point Vimlark is a staple of the game jam scene, and the games he makes never cease to delight me.
