Great stuff! I REALLY like your game!! The presentation is wonderful and your animations are brilliantly smooth and thematic.

I had trouble at first until I saw the tip you had below the game then was crushing it. If I could give some feedback, I think it would be good to make it impossible to have 3 of a kind. I know that obviously goes against true randomness, but it feels bad when I roll 3 of a kind and can't do the thing that I wanted to .

But this is really wonderful and gives me paper mario vibes in the best way. Great job on the game, and congrats on submitting!

This is a really nice integration of the theme into a fighting game. It was well-stylized and difficult, although some of the difficulty - as a few comments have pointed out - seems a bit too reliant on the dice rolls. Perhaps a weighting of the dice rolls depending on previous rolls would help to maintain the randomness of the game, but prevent the player from losing entirely out of poor luck regardless of their skill.

The aesthetic was amazing and I really loves the vibes of the game! I think that the combat itself felt a little bit too random for my taste and I didn't really feel like I had as much of an impact on if I won or lost than the dice did. I think I agree with ThatANonoWord in that some type of indicator could make the game feel more strategic. 

I would love to be able to play this in some multiplayer way as well!

Good job!

The presentation is absolutely amazing. The aesthetic of cardboard characters on sticks is kept all throughout the game, and makes it look absolutely phenomenal. The gameplay itself is a bit simplistic. If you could know your opponent's next move, I think it would be more fun even if your opponent was tougher. Overall solid game!

Lovely looking  and good sounding, nice!

It's simple but effective, having the attack on the higher numbers is harder to defeat the opponent, but you can heal more, and vice versa, it balances fairly nicely.

I found myself almost never using the block, it doesn't protect much more than healing instead since it only lasts one turn. I used it mostly to skip my turn waiting for a low HP opponent to stop blocking or to get high enough values to defeat them anyway.

Was fun how sometimes I could spend 20+ turns blocking/healing and the opponent only blocking, going for either a pacifist fight, or a movie fight (you know, those where the characters stop fighting to talk for a few minutes)

The actions rebinding with each combat always took me a bit of time to get used to, maybe something that could help would be to have the effect appear next to the hovered dice, something like that ?

(Could not take a screenshot with the in game cursor so I added a random cursor on top, but you get the point) The only other point I wanted to mention was that seeing the effect an action had isn't always easy, as the dices often fly over the bars and hide what happened, or simply because of it being instant and you were looking somewhere else. It's nothing major but sometimes makes it a bit harder to read.

The only thing missing is some sort of progression, or maybe some events or combat modifiers or something to break the repetition.

Really cool game, had fun defeating mean looking blue gloved dudes .

The presentation is really cool. The character are super well done and expressive. And the card box animation plus how the scenery change is definitively an A+. Really great job.

It took me a while to understand that the action you choose was affected by the dice you didn't choose (despite reading the description) simply because I thought it was about the dice on the side (for some reason). I also didn't understood why some dice are red.

But after a bit I got really into it and the battles are very engaging. Very nice flow and strategy.

I had an issue with my defence though. It seems when I was refilling my defence (the blue bar) it went down to zero for the next turn. Not sure why but it feels like a bug.

Really cool idea well executed! 

The game looks really pretty and is really fluid. I didn't find out about the non-used dice affecting the performance of the action until after reading another comment on here, it totally changes and improves the game! I do wish the music would change inbetween matches as it seems a bit strange that is changes only after you start a new game and not after you start a new match. The only thing I didn't like about the presentation apart from the unclarity of the combining dice is the death tone, it just sounds horrible and makes me want to cry, pls chang thx.
I like the gameplay loop and the combining dice are a great idea. I didnt love that the build changed completely every match, but it should change a little bit to prevent the game from becoming stale/you being stuck with a great/horrible action build, it might be a good idea to change just 1 dice action (or swap 2) every match to spice things up.

Not much else to say really, a really nicely done, nicely polished game! Thanks and good luck!

Super pretty game, there is no doubt about that. I'd love to see the health bars swing up and back down in between battles, to give that extra feel that they are on strings. 

It also wasn't super clear inside the game that the other dice added to my ability. It looks like you tried to do that with the different colours and the dice flying up. I think you could make this even more clear by having the dice be thrown at the enemy for damage or at self for shield and health. Or possibly the animation is the dice combining in the value for the damage you'll deal.

The combat feels like it goes on a bit too long, almost like every opponent is a boss. I also wasn't sure if my shield was supposed to go away and his to stay between rounds. Finally, I feel like just surfacing the health information number and damage number to the player would be super useful for strategizing. 

Overall though I really liked it, the art style continues to blow me away. Really unique concept for a game!

Wow, the art for this game hit me super hard. I really like the theme, the animations and the polish! the gameplay is actually pretty cool, but it gets a bit repetitive after 10 min. Maybe some extra actions apart from block, heal and damage would have been cool.

I did find a bug: if you lose and restart, the music stops for a few seconds before it kicks back up. also, some way to telegraph the action of the enemy would be nice (a bit like in Slay the Spire), since blocking can feel like a waste of time unless you have nothing better to do.

Very flavorful game, I hope you get featured by GMTK on his channel!

The fights were really fun, especially because each fight the values for each action was different! Though I didn't really like the way the theme was put it, because the dice are only just to represent the different values, but other than that the art looked amazing and it was fun!
