liked it, but enemies are a bit OP (specially the one dashes into me! ) they are crazy (＃￣ω￣)
also it's was a neat idea to get every roll a certain attack, but if the roll was before i shoot, so i know what I'm actually shooting, it would have added some strategy to what i roll
Liked the art, however you need to make it crisp since it's pixel rt (maybe try disabling Interpolate space between pixels
Good job! .. like it.. keep it up! (*¯︶¯*)

Jazzy JumpNice little bullet hell game! The luck control mechanic felt good, but the way dice were regained felt sorta awkward- I feel like I would've enjoyed a slow regen over having to track them down. Good work!

Black CAT Blessings (gmtk 2022)It's an interesting game. I found myself quickly overwhelmed, so I'm not sure it's balanced, but it was neat. Since it's a fixed number of (max) dice, I was expecting to be able to pick the dice back up after firing, so it took me a bit to realize the dice respawned randomly. It was also fairly difficult to keep track of what each value represented, so it might have been nice if the dots were replaced with symbolic symbols. Otherwise, it was pretty neat.

Dice ShotThe dice mechanics are inyeresting and fun to play around.
If you continue working on it you could make a real gem.
also the music is nice and the artstlye iyou are going for is pretty good.
keep it up :)

Squished by LuckVery interesting mechanics at play. I wish it wasn't on a D6, I wish you had used D8's instead and have 8 be maybe a screen clear but it rolls much faster and damages you a little maybe. I liked the pace of the game, and the variance of two enemies. I didn't really find a need to use the luck control mechanic, but it was neat in some corner cases.

ControllVery interesting! The concept is pretty neat and incorporates the dice theme really well. SFXs are clean and responsive and the splash art of the game is beautiful. But I want to mention a few possible improvements. The first thing I noticed is that the score scaled too fast, after a few seconds I stopped paying attention to it completely. Another thing I would like to change is my health: it is way too generous so I didn't focus on dodging attacks at all. And the dice mechanics is fun but complex, so you might want to spend some resources building a proper tutorial (if time permits of course). Overall for a jam entry, this is pretty neat! Good work!

A Liar's DiceThe concentrate mechanic is really sick. Reminds me of breath of the wild! Hope you continue to flesh this game out more! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedgein <3

Polyhedral PummelingReally fun gameplay. At first it's kind hard to remember what number does what, but you get used to it fast especially because that's up to chance anyway. The slow mo mode when you roll the die is really nice, gives some time to evaluate difficult situations lol. Art and music are nice, maybe the game just lack a bit of juice. Other than that, great game!

Super Dice BoyA nice game to play for 5-10 minutes. I would work on feedback and player agency when working further on the project.

A Plate To RememberThis was fun! Took me some time to figure out all the controls ... but this is really cool!
I wish there was a way to control when the dices will explode... That would have been little more engaging in my opinion.

Dicey GardenerPretty addictive. It took me a while to stop playing. :D Nice design, decent sounds, chargers are annoying!! :D

Live or DiceVery cool concept. Having to pick the dice up made surviving tricky and the different abilities were fun!
Submitted
Slice N DiceCool! This is a lot of fun and I like the bullet time mechanic, so it's not too overwhelming.
