Congrats on finishing your game!

I encountered the controls bug someone else mentioned. My first play I couldn't do anything because I tried to check the description again and it broke the keys. Weird bug! Fortunately, I was able to refresh and try it out. 

I really like your premise here - I was chuckling at the line "you are an entropy goblin", well done. However, this game was almost unplayable for me. Everything was just too small and the colors were too similar. The orange/red gems looked too similar, as did the green/yellow ones. The dice were all too small to be able to read without hyperfocusing on them. When you have so much important information on the screen, it needs to be easily readable at a glance. You've got so much unused screen real estate - use it! Make everything at least twice as big. Maybe 3. Maybe more. And turn up the saturation on your colors. You want everything to be readable and quickly so the player can spend their time strategizing instead of trying to read the screen. And while this is a game jam, it's best practice to avoid things being identified solely by color as this might make the game unplayable for those with colorblindness. Try to get in the habit of associating accessibility with any time you think of the word 'color' when designing. But this was a jam, so understandable if you didn't have the time to work out a solution for that. 

I liked your art a lot, i just wish it wasn't so tiny! Well done on this. I hope you keep designing games because this has some interesting interactions going on. Keep making games!

It doesn't feel like my controls are doing anything n.n'

I don't know if it's something to do with my system, but it seemed like my controls did nothing, and the game just ran by itself.

Not gonna rate 'cause it wouldn't be a fair assessment.

This is a great idea ! There's a lot of potential behind the mechanic.

If I were to nitpick, I would however say that there is a bit of tweaking to be done: 

• The rolls the hero gets are not very easy to see while rushing to get the best dice. 
• The enemies switch too quickly to be able to adapt to their strengths and weaknesses.
• There are too many "no effect" combinations.
• The right side of the screen has too little visually noticeable changes when the hero wins / attacks and so it feels a bit static
• I got stuck once between two crystals because you cant go through them when youve got enough shards

Overall this is a really really good idea that very strongly appeals to the video player's more mathematical side , which is a very unique thing. However there's some tweaking to be done to truly make it feel interactive and balanced.

I'm so glad I decided to keep playing even when I didn't really know what I was doing because it's definitely REALLY fun once you figure things out! If I had to offer some advice, I'd say that it's not terribly clear that where you put the crystal down matters, as there aren't very many defined borders between the sides of the dice. I think it would have helped if there was like a dotted line or even if each side had it's own colored border, as it was very confusing before I figured it out. Personally I think the attack combo system was a little confusing, as I think the fact that you had to roll very specific combinations with the chance of not even attacking at all made it a little more confusing than it had to be. I definitely did enjoy your game though and I can totally see myself playing it in the future!

So after a little bit of trying I fugured out how to play it. I like the idea of rng manipulation *wink*! Though I wish the manipulation itself was a little bit less of a hassle. The complicated part of the game happens on the right, with the abilities, the monster etc, but I am doing buisy work on the left most of the time.
