Why is it always odds, and why is six always shy ;(
This is a perfect example as to why unchanged game engine random always feels unfair.
But don't get me wrong, it was entertaining trying to win :D
Congrats on finishing the jam !

The idea is fine, but having 50% chance of losing money means that somehow you'd just fail because of bad luck, no matter what choices you were making :)
It looks very nice and plays smoothly, though!
this game is really cool! its kind of brutal when u keep losing money so id suggest making the game a bit more merciful but overall i like this a lot
Hey very cool idea!!
Maybe a bit too random. The first game I rolled 5 odds in a row and could never recover. And then second game I kept rolling evens and pretty much won by turn 7 or so!!
Really good concept though and with a bit of tweaking could be super great! Good work on this!
It looks good but I feel like I cannot do much to strategize... I rolled odd 5 times in a row and found myself at -50$... What can I do from here excpept losing...
Probably wanted more gameplay other than just rolling the die, still a pretty looking game :D gj
Nice art dir and UI stuff, a bit too random for me to enjoy though :D Nicely done anyway
I had fun playing this, it looks and feels great. But if you are unlucky, the dice is able to really screw you over and you can't do anything about it, which is not as fun. I had -90$ at one point and couldn't do anything. I wouldn't know how to fix that though, because that's just how a dice works. All in all a fun game.
Looks great, but feels a bit simple. Maybe add a shop option to get extra dice ?
It's cute ! Small detail : If you have a few minutes to spare at the end, you could make custom sprites for the buttons. It would feel better than having the Unity buttons which will be used by many other games in the jam, and are also a bit ugly imo.
Nice presentation! Gameplay wise, i was mainly in deficit of money, cause I kept rolling odds, so I lost. I wasn't sure which of the castle was me as the player also, so I was surprise to loose at the end, cause I though I was the castle shooting, not the other!

I played first in windowed mode and don't seen a thing! In fullscreen all ui elements are visible. Overall a really good looking game! The music is funny, but not annoying. The gameplay is a little too random, can get quite frustrating. But I had fun playing! Well done!
I love the art. The game is interesting. I was a little distracted by some of the buttons being cut off. When I went full screen it got a little buggy as well. Overall great game though.
great presentation, the gameplay itself seems a bit unfair (because of the randomness) but I get that it is the theme.
good job!!! =)
Fun game! Has a really polished feel and is easy to pick up. Nice music as well -- great work!
