Nice idea. I like how you can make real decisions because you see in advance what the enemy will do. Good idea for an otherwise random outcome!

very enjoyable, i would just like to see what number I rolled and what the opponents rolled to see the outcome better.

Cool game, would have been interesting to see risk/reward strategies, like permanently decreasing the values of a dice to get an immediate bonus, or the ability to stack multiple dices on a attack, and risk getting hit. loved the way you can mess with the opponents role. Why when you hold a dice and want to pick up another you cant just swap them?! and if you are not on full hp there is no reason to use the defense(maybe you can make it so the hp roll is decreased?).  Loved the game.

thx for the feedback! I'll take it into consideration when I try to improve the game after the jam

The main character reminds me of Guybrush Threepwood, so that's automatic points from me. xD Love the art style and music! Very solid, very fun. =)

I had a ton of fun with this! being able to mess with your opponents rolls adds a really nice layer to the strategy with the different dice types! Hope you pursue this further after the jam :)

Really liked the general idea, but the balance is a bit off, I end up playing the same battle for too long due to bad luck rolls. The final boss just healed himself from 1 back to 11, and then again and again. If I could reuse the bonus dice once in a while, that would be great. Still, love it!

thx for the feedback, I'll try to balance the game a bit once the jam is over

A fun and creative game regardless!

yeah, due to a lack of testing the game crashes after a few fights. Will try to fix it after the Jam is over. Thx for playing tho!
