I like the art and the concept.

Yet it was a bit too slow in its gameplay.

The slime noises were great! I thought it was a creative concept, but I wish I knew how frequently I was earning dice. It seemed really slow to me, but I understand part of the core concept of the game is frantically allocating your extremely limited pool of dice to be the most effective. Nice work overall!

Nice little game. Great sound! I couldn't figure out how to get more dices, i thought once i have 6 points i can get one more dice.

Really liked the vibe of the game overall :)

Good game. You could try adding some UI, it should make the game more clear.

Good stuff. I think if there was better feedback on whether you were in Dice placing mode or Tower placing mode, it would feel a lot better.
