What a fun take on the Roll the Dice theme! Nice job :-)
Thanks for the compliment!
Awesome game, was a lot of fun! :)
Thank you!
I had a lot of fun with this and it was SO addictive (and the ending is great :D). Simple, but really well executed. I did find one bug where the dice had too many pips, but excellent entry overall!
Oh it's not a bug. The more you shoot, the more holes get added to the dice which causes the numbers to increase!
Glad you liked it! :D
Silly me! that explains it, it definitely made it more challenging!
Super smart and simple design, Good fun and cheeky humour! Especially love how intuitive the rules were :)
See you, cowboy SlyBebop!
(sorry I have to write a cringe reply to every comment)
Fantastic delivery!
Implementation of the dice was also quite ingenious and the mechanic really nice.
The end rolling was an awesome move :D
Glad you liked it!

I won the game after having a big beer belly. Just chasing around with the dice zombie is fun. Keep on the good work.
Thank you for completing our game!
This game is absolutely brilliant. Clever way to implement the theme. I love everything about this game. I can play this all day, it is so fun that even the guy at the table decided to join the party :D It's definitely one of my favorite games in the jam, we need more people to see this, what a gem. Great job guys!
Thanks! Be careful because it's not recommended to drink beer all day ;)
Really cool concept and well made ! I feared these Zomb'Dices more than i expected ! You rock friends! :3
We "rock n roll" [ ]<=
Very fun and creative game! I really like the concept and the artstyle, very well polished. Good job!
Thank you!
Oh yes, I've been waiting for this game for a reason! It's very dynamic, beautiful, fun and well made! Also, Rick Astley was a nice addition at the end! :) The only thing missing is the music and different abilities of zombie dice, but the game is still good! I like it :D
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
Hilarious premise aside, this was actually really fun to play. The bullet hole mechanic was a brilliant way to make the player pick their shots carefully, and the bartenders were nice for switching up the game and forcing the player to adapt after drinking more and more beer.
Ended up getting so wasted that I got a no damage run. 10/10 would drink again
Thank you for your review and for try-harding our game ^^
I loved your game! The idea of the bullet hole adding a hole on the die was genius! It was great developing a strategy of when to shoot vs when to not shoot. It took me 4 tries to beat, and I think the difficult was at a really good place. Amazing job.
I found you were another game like ours that was cursed by itch's loading glitch, and I am trying to play all of them to help each other out. Good luck!
I'm also a fan of our game designer's ideas :) I think there's is a great risk versus reward concept.
Thank you for your review. I'll try your game!
Seen the other posts and just wanted to confirm the game is working!
I'll be back to post my review shortly :)
Edit: review below
Love this! The main mechanic of shooting to reroll enemy speed is great, and the added wrinkle of bullet holes adding to a face's value is great both thematically and in adding an additional layer of depth - I'd often try and outmaneuvre opponents without shooting in the early game because I knew I had a lot more beer to drink and didn't want to risk them becoming too powerful later on.
The visual style is charming with a kind of faux-voxel feeling which I really enjoyed. The soundtrack is superb - it's just the perfect fit, feeling right thematically and giving a bouncy energy to the whole experience that I couldn't get enough of :)
Wasted vs wasted is just excellent as the two endings.
Thank you a lot for your amazing review ^^

Rip, this looks like a really awesome concept but when I tried to play it I got stuck on this screen :[
Sadly our game got broken because we uploaded it during a traffic peak and we're not allowed to redirect you toward a functionning link.
We'll warn you whenever Itch.io support team fixes our problem! :)

This game is great. Adding in the bartenders who shoot the dice as well to ruin your well laid plans was an excelllent twist and really added to the difficulty in the end! Well done!
I got to the game by going to your profile and playing your newest upload. The art style and animations are cool. I love the western gun sound effect. Really fun entry, I'm sad that people are having difficulty playing it.
Many thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it :)
Indeed our programmer uploaded the build on a other test page and it seems to work. We have contacted Itch.io support to solve the issue.
The screenshots and reference to Read Dead Redemption are awesome. I wish I could load the game :(

A few games are having this issue after being uploaded right before the dead line, during the traffic spike.
We were told to contact Itch.io support, as the issue was from their side. We will tell you whenever it gets fixed!
