Nice work! I liked the game and the animation in particular. Friendly fire on that last round was a little too strong, I think; both times the room was almost completely cleared by the bomb-throwing enemies without intervention from me. Still, well done!

Really enjoyed that the randomness was based on a timer, made me feel a lot more in control. Pretty good!

Oliver the Dice MasterLovely visuals! Audio-feedback matters alot, and from your other replies I understand that you didn't have time for this which is a bummer. Great job though!

Snake EyesThe changing weapons! I feel tense when I dodge the enemy hits and confirm my weapon!
I like it!!!

Dice CrushLooks good! There's quite a few that have followed a similar line as you, though I like the diversity of weapons yours provides and that I can distinguish which is which thanks to your UI. My main comment is only that the enemies are too fast. Given the randomness of attacks available to the player, one should at least be able to outrun the enemies. Or at least not let them catch up so quickly.

Dungeon Roller!Beautiful looking game! My best time for winning was 41 seconds! The art is great, the ui is slick and everything feels really good. I had no audio while playing, it might be something on my end, otherwise adding audio could help bring this game up to another level!

In The WallsIve seen plenty games with the mechanic of "dice rolls decide your weapon/power", yours has a good implementation of it, I like the pace and art style. Very sweet. Congrats!

The Walking CubeLoved the art style, and the theme being woven into the game. Felt that the weapon switching was maybe a bit too fast, definitely a nice game all round though.

Dice and SorceryNice interpretation of the theme. The various weapons all seem to work well. Good work putting this together for the Jam.

DiceSurvivorGood job on this one! The art style is really nice. Multiple angles for the enemies and some really cool animations. Something like a boss or sound effects could really spice this up even more!

Rolling for RoyaltyVery fun!! but over too soon ; _; I managed to get my best time down to 21 seconds. Each weapon felt good, would love to see more added in the future!

Dice TowahThe game have a nice lighting feel , and random attack is a interesting part, but it changes too fast and the progress bar is at the right top, so it is very hard to figure out which weapon I am using.

Dice SurvivalI really think for 48 hours this came together really well. Its neat to see the randomized weapon concept but overall I felt like in a full game it would get old pretty quickly. The little six sided dice on the tile floors and 12 sided dice to light the way were amazing touches. I was a particular fan of the poker chip mine - my favorite of the weapons you added.
Congrats on making something!
I liked the different attack mechanics! It would be interesting if there was a progression to your pool of randomized attacks throughout the game. Obviously this would be difficult to achieve in a 48 hour timeframe. Well done!
