Kobalds! The idea is something I really can dig into as well as the art style! After the jam this needs an overhaul with cute animations, more Kobolds and a refined combat system. This really has potential.
3/4/5
Stay crunchy.
Ah they are so cute! The main Kobold walking around so confidently :-) The music, sfx and juice are also very good. – And the intro of course!
I also see the little dice-kobolds have their faces modeled after the dice they’ve been turned into.
I thought the beginning at the very least was a bit on the hard side … or at least at some point I understand what I had to do, but still needed to talk to M. Bone each time because I died. (So I’d prefer to skip that if already seen a couple of times.)
It became a lot better once I got the hang of it.
I eventually passed the level though. (I have no idea how to reroll, pressing 4 didn’t work for me.)
Just a last thought: When you’re low on dice and running away, the opponents tend to bunch up, so they’re all in the same spot.
This game is really fun, the sound effects and animations are great! Though it feels like you're supposed to snowball off of the previous level, so restarting from a checkpoint with nothing is rather difficult
The controls feel too clunky in my opinion, but it's a very creative game and the characters look cute, too.
I love everything about this game, the game is really really fun(except for the part that I accidently click escp and need to restart everything). I think the difficulty is a bit too hard. Sometime it really frustrating to restart after you almost finish the level. The art are cute, and sound effect are great. love it
Very cute! Love the artstyle and aesthetic :) Couldn’t make it past the first enocunter, but I don’t play this genre that much so that makes sense.
