This story line is great. And who doesn't love shiny math rocks? Got 5 dice, then spent the rest looking at all the dialogue.

This is great, I love all the birds and d20 designs! I kept accidentally pressing options too quickly, whoops! But I enjoyed so much that I had another playthrough. Great job!

Gameplay was somewhat limited. The dialogue seems to effect outcomes to a degree but can't tell how much is my choice and how much is RNG (though the raven cheating and getting  21 all the time is something).

That aside, I enjoyed the art and it was a cute little story.

Developer

Hi, glad you enjoyed the story! The RNG always the same (except for Raven). But each character can gift you their dice without playing if you pick the right choices (including raven too).

Ah okay then! I did find the 'diplomatic' routes but I also tried seeing if I could beat them all. If dialogue doesn't effect rolls, my luck was just terrible lol. 

Developer

Haha, happens! Initially, we wanted for the dialogue to affect the rolls, but it seemed harder to signal to the player or justify logically...

The art and the dialog is wonerful!
I just wished the gameplay was a bit more involved, but so cool to see more story based games!

Start game. Reads description. See art. (pretty) music starts (Jammin). Story evolves. (interested). Gameplay unfolds. Neat. Really good use of gameplay and story genre. As per this style the gameplay is simple but honestly you did something very neat for a chill game. Good Job.

Birbs. Adorable. 11/10.

Lacking in terms of gameplay, but it has a great art style.
