A funny idea of having choice between different powers, but with the constraint of moving/rolling on the side of the chosen power to apply it. Sometimes, it is better to go on a chosen direction rather then choosing the power. With more time for development, it could be nice to upgrade our dice by replacing faces by new powers. Indeed we don't know from start how life works, but after a single game it is clear enough I think. I liked the introduction too. Thanks for the game :)

The die with elemental faces is creative idea and I liked it! At first, I was confused about how health was being tracked or when I would die, so maybe an area to improve? I'd also recommend aligning the game grid with the chess board tiles evenly. Overall, I enjoyed the premise and gameplay about being attacked by the other game pieces :) Great work!

Yeah, we should have been clearer that damage "breaks" the die's faces. Thank you for playing!

This is a very nice game! I too would rebel if I was a dice.

Pretty good game! The pathfinding could be better though, enemies overlap. But great game overall, creative.
