There is another balatro clone in the jam but unlike yours this one has a lot of creativity and design outside of the box. Well done for the concept I think we could have more visuals and fun interactions or efffects that would help spice it up. Also adding more dice mechanics in a shop would be cool as well.

Eyyy great to hear, that was the goal!

Balatro with dice is pretty neat, though this feels like that dice game from Witcher 1 somehow

Developer(+1)

Hmmm, ill have to check that one out. Currently doing research to try and pull mechanics from a bunch of different dice games to use as modifiers or powerups!

Submitted(+1)

There is also the dice game from Kingdom Come Deliverance 1, where there are certain dice that has high chance to roll odd, even, or a certain number. Maybe you can replace your dice somehow, like in Balatro you can modify your deck 

Developer(+1)

Oh ive defineltyl got plans for some crazy dice modding, as well as bonus dice that dive different bonuses based on their roll. Ill have to check out kingdom come deliverance as well. Thanks for the suggestions!

cheaty dices are fun (since I suck at these dice game lol)

I really liked this, if you are thinking about updating it ill recommend adding a bonus called "Snake Eyes" that gives a big buff to 1 pairs

Really cool game, there were some broken bonuses like +10 on every dice haha, but quite fun :)

Developer(+1)

All the gamblings gotta pay off somehow lol

YAHTZEE BALATRO!!! Great game. If only I could roll the three for the straight.

Developer

Yeah i realised after the deadline that a small straight of 4 would have been nice. Its a little annoying when ur just missing the one lol. the full Steam release will hopefully fix this.

Submitted(+1)

Yahtzee! That full house saved me lol

really fun game!! feel like it's kind of hard to get enough points,  but then again i lost a round by just 1 point :( ...  i'll get it next time >:( 

Developer

Just one more roll...

Submitted(+1)

Very nice visuals and sound!
The scaling was quite harsh for how inconsistent the points were, however.
On a really lucky run I got to round 6!

Developer

Gambling is allways harsh! but i also ran out of time to balance...

Submitted(+1)

yeah that's fair, I can tell you put time into polish

Submitted(+1)

Great game idea! I love playing poker hands and this works here also for dice!

Submitted(+1)

Fun premise and perfect execution - it was instantly addicting. I especially loved the dice design and sound effects.

Submitted(+1)

I love these kinds of games! I'm kinda unlucky though...

"99% of gamblers quit before winning big" or something like that.

Pretty fun to play and the artwork looks great ! Well done !
