Really interesting and satisfying to play, I always had to think fast which dice I want to use for which enemy, and the fact that I could only change the order of the dice in the left hand meant that I had to plan in advance. The game also looks amazing visually. Great job!
Edit: I only just noticed the interacteable spin wheel in the background from reading the comments, wow!

Ancestral DuelGreat presentation ! I like the idea of the roulette on the background even though I quickly ran out of time to shoot it ahah

Fudge The DiceSo beautiful! My favourite part is definitely the hands, a genius indicator of what dice are coming. The randomness is definitely adjusted so that the enemies match your dice more often, which is for sure a good thing! The roulette is fun as well. Greatly thought out, maybe the difficulty feels like it ramps up very suddenly, but an amazing job!

Flick the Dicereally lovely animation and visuals! the hands working the dice was delightful to watch! I kind of expected there to be a resource management aspect, like, reloading dice costs points, so you can't just fire willy nilly, and I figured the points you get from killing enemies would go back into gaining dice to shoot.

The Inscrutable ComposerWow! Really polished game. I accidentally discovered the interactable objects and they are the coolest part of the game for me. All of the animations are super nice and killing enemies feels really good. REALLY nice game, great job!

Sniping DiceWow this feels really nice to play! The leaderboard is a pretty solid motivation to replay it! Only got 6k points at the end, but wow the game is nice. Amazing visuals, nice music, awesome mechanic. Rated 5-4-5 just because it was that good!

Roll Literally RollI suddenly thought about your game just now, and realized that I forgot to mention something:
I have a very strong feeling that you deliberately coded the dice reloading mechanic to give most of the dice values that are needed to vanquish the current ghosts on screen. It might have been some kind of mad coincidence, but if I'm correct here, then you are extremely thoughtful just for that mechanic alone.
I was really impressed when I found out about the phenomenon and tested it, but somehow forgot to express my respect for it when I wrote my original comment.
A very simple concept with a really great execution. Love the theme of haunted casino and floating hands tossing die like shuriken's. Making all your assets from scratch is really impressive.

Jimmy Blitz and the Rocket DiceOh my god the animations are out of this world. I love them so much ! Audio and visuals are also on top. The gameplay is rather simple but pretty fun ! Graphically one of the prettiest games of the jam, and the best animation i've seen in a jam game ever. Outstanding job !

Croupier simulatorI really dig the presentation! The reload animation, the use of bloom, and the way the hands are animated is all really nice!
I would like to maybe see a more clear indication that you can hit the slot machines. The sound/feedback when hitting a ghost could also stand to be a bit punchier maybe. It would also be nice to be able to choose which die you throw from your hand, rather than just throwing the next one.
All things considered though, this game has lots of style and polish, and is a great interpretation of the theme. I'd love to see what this could turn into if fleshed out more :-)

Just Roll With ItHoly crap YES!!! this would be a stellar VR game!! I love how the hands just flick the dice at the enemies!

Dexter's Danger DiceReally cool game! Great visuals, audio, game feel etc. Would be really fun in VR as well I imagine. Great job!
Submitted
One in a MillionReally cool game! I liked the mechanics with using the reload to get the dice you want. I just wish there was some way to maybe swap the dice coming up next with the one in your hand, otherwise it feels like there's a little too much rng especially in the later levels. But overall, great game!
