This is surprisingly in-depth? I really love the bullet and courage systems, gives the player moments of opportunity to prepare and attack. It also prevents the match from devolving into a slug fest, if you only try to damage the opponent, you will lose.
Luck does affect the gameplay a lot, but the "rerolls" pushes it towards a more strategic play. One of the more creative and enjoyable game designs, highly rated !

Simple Ogre LuckWe just released the improved version at https://roguebrain.itch.io/crapshot-saloon-deluxe-edition!
Very fun gameplay, allowing for some clever strategies, with just the right amount of luck and the "dice-pool-building" mechanic works great here.
Well done!

Character Sheets, PleaseAwesome idea, the lock and reroll system was great. I love that the actions resolve in a queue, giving you an extra layer of strategy. Being able to take defeated opponents' dice was a fantastic addition, it was fun to be able to customise your loadout in that way and it kept me excited for what kind of dice I would see next.
The presentation was very nice, it all felt thematically coherent. The animations could probably be speed up a bit.
Great work overall!

Yokoton SlingLooks like a classic Flash game in all the best ways! I love the style and feel of the game.

Dice Knight 2600This game is so fun! I love how the actions tell a story. At some point we both finished our beer, I loaded my gun while the fool shot thinking he had bullets in his chamber (he hadn't). I then took a shot just before he punched me and finished him off with my knuckles. The variety of oponents is also really cool, especially the fact that they all have different hands. So yea, presentation was amazing. Gameplay wise, I had a lot of fun but it took me way too long to realize there was an help button to know the effects of the dices, i'm not very bright hehe. I managed without though and I think this help wouldn't even have been needed if the game had a bit more juice like big red numbers appearing briefly to know how much damage you've done, maybe sound or animation to show that some actions use courage. One thing I have not understood at all is the action bar on top of the screen that appears when hovering a dice. That's really the only thing I found missing, the rest was amazing. This game is on my top list of the jam for sure. Well done !

Croupier simulatorWe got a lot of feedback on both the help panel as well as the dice hover. We made a change for after the jam so when you hover over a die, it shows the description of what that face does. Also, the indicator at the top shows all 6 faces that are on that die.
Be sure to check it out after the jam, we have an update planned with new difficulties and an endless mode!

Die Sorcerer!Really fun game! It was fun to strategize and try to counter whatever the AI was doing. The art + music + sfx was also great and really complimented the vibe
Also "wanted for crimes" was extremely funny for some reason (even if it might have said war crimes I still read it as that and laughed for a bit)

Spellbound RollersCool concept, I had fun figuring out the best strategies, though I do agree there are more interesting mechanics just asking to be added to this! Great presentation, I really felt like I was in a Western with the music and sound effects! Can't wait to see what happens next for this game :)
I would appreciate if your team would check out my submission and provide any feedback you have, I am trying to gauge interest to see if I should continue further development too!

Very polished game. Took me a while to understand the "deck" mechanic, but that makes the gameplay more interesting once I got it .

Dice WarriorLoved the game! The atmosphere is just right and the gameplay is fun. Enjoyed myself strategizing with dice. What I wondered was whether the opponent's cancel took effect. The dice could have some added visual effects to be more clear?
Great job, team!

Gambler's DeckThanks for the feedback! We considered giving the opponent rerolls and having them use them when you use yours, but opted for more deterministic enemies so you could strategize your turn more easily. While this makes it easier, we felt it would have been too frustrating setting up a cool turn in response to your opponent only for them to reroll and change it all.
Cool game! I liked the art a lot, and the animations were really satisfying to watch! I also like how you addressed the rng factor so it wasn't frustrating to get a bunch of undesirable outcomes. There's also a lot of strategy involved, which I'm a big fan of. Overall, I had a lot of fun playing. Great job!
