Okay, so I'm a winner.

Very nice combat mechanic, and I like having the ability to "change shells".

My only nitpick would be that moving around with the WASD keys sometimes did not work, and I do not know if it was because of the dice face I currently had or because of a bug.

But other than that I had a great time playing your game !

Very interesting game concept, I liked how you incorporated dice into it.

The rolling crab was cute, and I liked the roll so much that I kept forgetting that I could move with WASD.

The roll mechanic to kill enemies is very fun, but there is no difficulties because there is no life bar, and the absence of GUI to show you your stats is a little bit troubling

I enjoyed this! Kept me on edge as the enemies followed me around and the roll to kill mechanism is lots of fun to use.
