How does your game fit the theme?
The Color indicator on the top of the UI are dice which get rolled at the start of every level and then tell you in which order of color the knight follows the carrots. These dice only roll the first time you play the level (and also the AI is a bit random sometimes, if you want to count this aswell))

Quite good mechanic. Some puzzles are really creative and makes think little bit out of the box. Some levels are easier, but that is ok. It was interesting to look what the AI does and be like: Not go there, go away, or GO, GO, GO and don't turn away.

Good job.

Meeple Jump - No Time to Dice

Thanks! Great seeing you enjoying the game and music!

Very cool idea and level design! A lot of interesting puzzles. One thing I didn't get is why the knight sometimes go to it's goal in a diagonal line and sometimes go 2 straight steps, which made it stuck. Anyways a good job!

I was playing on my stream. Here's a recording in case you'd like to see it

Petroll The Dice

Thanks for your feedback! To be honest I don't know either why he goes sometimes diagonally and sometimes with two lines, it's using the A* Algorithm so it maybe gave it this way instead of the diagonal one, or i messed up with the layers a bit. Also I've just saw the recording of your stream, it was great seeing you having fun with the game and enjoying the music! and thank you again for playing my game!

Very original concept, the puzzle/moving mechanic is realy intersesting but needs more link with the dice theme. Good job !

Kinda Good GamesDeveloper1 year ago

Hi! Thanks for your feedback! The Color indicators are dice with predetermined rolls, i hope it was clear, since already many people have questioned how this game fits into the theme

Thanks for your feedback!

Rusheel2008Submitted1 year ago

Quite a nice game! The mechanics and how the game was made to navigate were very unique from other games! I like how it is fresh and I think the concept is very unique! I only think that there could be a little more place for more connection with the theme! But I think it is safe to say it here, I liked it!

BEST OF LUCK:)

Thanks for your feedback! I tried to make something unique for the theme so i went with predetermined rolls, which would end up making the game less frustrating. But since many people said the same, i think i could've add a better explanation or more things for the theme

YuuniSubmitted1 year ago

That is a very unique idea of using navigational system as the main mechanic. However, I feel like it doesn't exactly follow the "the of the dice" jam theme. The "dice" is not random (the dice roll but the value given is still the same every time, making the "dice" not really a dice. But overall, the game is very new and quite enjoyable.

P/S: I couldn't give live commentary due to not being able to stream, sorry

Roll Literally Roll

Kinda Good GamesDeveloper1 year ago

hi! Thanks for your Feedback! My Idea with this jam was to go with predetermined rolls, as they reduce the frustration and the game would then be more unique than other games. I did consider at first to make it completely random, then to just roll the first time you pla and them settled down for predetermined ones. I Tried to visualize this with the small animation at the start of the game. I do get why it's confusing for some people how this game would fit into the theme, but I hope I could make you understand better.

Unique idea! place down the carrots and watch how the knight moves is quite fun.

Really impressed with your tutorial. It did a job job of easing me into the mechanics! I might consider displaying the little prediction line that the guy follows when the player is setting up the carrots

Good Times Roll

Kinda Good GamesDeveloper1 year ago

Thanks for your feedback and your kind words! I did consider to add the line while placing the carrots, but then decided not to because i thought it would'ven taken too long and wouldn't helped that much, but I'll might consider it in a post jam version!
