Fun game! A new take on the many dice rolling puzzlers.
By the way, a typical d6 is different (has opposite faces add to seven). Your dice works too though :).

Comments
- I appreciate the GIF on the page that explains the game :)
- You found a nice solution to show sides of a dice
- Some variation would be nice after a few levels (obstacles / walls, multipliers, or something similar)

God doesn't play diceFun game! I really enjoyed it, I just wished there were more levels, and maybe some variations on the mechanics after a while. Congratulations!

Dungeon Roller!The presentation is very clean, perfect for a number-styled puzzle game like this.
I get that the number "points" which direction it'll be placed, but that doesn't necessarily feel like rolling... maybe with a different theming besides dice, it would make more sense.
Most of the levels, there's only one direction you can move at any given time, so there's not too much difficulty. I can see a lot of potential though!

Fortune With YeThe view of the dice was a little bit confusing at first. I thought I was seeing it from above so when moving to the left, I expected the right side to become the new “top”, but it was the other way around.
Interesting gameplay idea. Most of the time, it was maybe a bit too easy, at least after the first two-three moves in each level, it was very clear what the way forward had to be.
I like the color palette and the minimalist look.
The win sound was a maybe a bit scary/noisy/loud idk… but the music, lose and walk sound all fit really well.
Creative take on the puzzle genre. Well done :)

Dice Another DayIt was a little confusing at first but I managed to beat all levels and enjoyed it. Well done!

Rollin' To ForgetWell polished game. I was also confused how to play it. Little tutorial screen in the beginning would help a lot and you can release it right away (+ already suggested a procedural generationa)

Live or DiceInteresting game! It was a bit confusing at first but after a while I managed to understand it anyway. Puzzles are in the right difficulty for me, not too easy, not too hard. Gameplay feels clean and responsive, which helps a lot with the puzzles. Overall very nice!

Paint Me Something, Will You?Cool and intuitive game. I like the visuals and the sound, winning is really satisfying. This could be easily a nice mobile game with some swipe mechanic :)

The Royal Game of UrWhen I started I didn't really understand what I was doing, but it's pretty intuitive, so I managed anyway! I'm sure this is a collection of premade levels, but if you found a way to make them procedurally this would make for a pretty cool infinite mobile game.
Nicely done!

Roll it like you mean itReally fun puzzle! I would expect the face at the left to be on top when I go right, but it's a detail! The visuals are sweet! The game is polished, it has potential for a small complete commercial game! Great job!

Fishing CasinoIt took me a few rounds to fully understand the game, but after I got it, it was really nice to play!

Roll your LifeKinda trippy at first understanding that we are looking at the INSIDE of the die, not the top of it! haha! Once I figured out that it's basically just a "right" sequence of moves to solve each puzzle it kinda takes the fun out of it. What if there was no "failure" state, just and endless action puzzle where you can do better and feel satisfied for exceptional moves, rather than just the "right" move? You know how games like Tetris there's no failure for putting a block wherever you want. Overall good work!

Island Pair-a-diceTough game, I'll have to admit I completed the first 5 levels blindly, just pressing random buttons and getting right on the first try. Then I couldn't stop losing and had to actually try and learn how to play. Still not sure, I think I've seen similar games but there's a lot to think about here
