This was amazing and very deserving of the win! It was a little easy once you started getting more dice and the fact you could recover between fights but that didn't dampen my enjoyment at all! I loved every second of this!!

A very fleshed out game that I wasn't expecting and a lot harder than I was expecting especially from the bosses.  Though surprisingly less challenge than I expected from the final boss, probably due to the number of dice I had at the end.  The games based on an interesting system though, with the turn based combat relying on randomized dice rolls and adding in the feature of doubling all values with a seven on top of the splits you can do between different stats.  

It had an interesting idea of strategy, though unfortunately I didn't end up using it too much throughout my run through. Once I had a few more dice the game pretty much become a attack rush and not much else.  The enemies would heal consistently and build up massive shields if I didn't attack as much as I could so I just ended up tanking it all and spam attacking :/

Other than the balance though the entirety of the game is a really nice basis and had some really cool ideas.  Maybe some sort of dice variants could've helped?  Rather than just more dice every boss you beat.  Some dice could be limited to certain numbers or certain things, ex. an attack dice that does more if you only attack, etc..

One thing that was a bit annoying to me though, was the placement and handling off the dice rolling.  Since you end up rolling every turn and you also end up moving dice into the different areas every turn it became kinda repetitive to go all the way to the top to roll and drag all the way to the left to pick something.  

Not to mention for the first little bit I was a bit confused since I didn't really know what I was supposed to do or where the dice were supposed to go.  Once I figured it out though it definitely made more sense, though it was still a little weird.  Especially the number display in comparison to the display on the 7 dice and enemies "double dice" which were all in middle of the dice.  

So personally I'd prefer if the UI was tweaked slightly, and something that could be helpful would be adding the ability to say, double click a certain stat and put everything into it.  That way if you are going for an all in strategy, it's less time consuming.  Though as I said the game also feels like it needs a bit of balancing so I'd recommend doing that first, since making a spam strategy easier isn't really gonna help.

A really polished game tho I've gotta say.  And definitely an interesting play through.

Very well made game, I didn't expect anything less from this team, but I'm still impressed! Great graphics, awesome sound (both music and sfx), love the animations, and the gameplay was smooth. That said, the game balance itself is a little off.

As far as I can tell, there's no reason to block if you can heal instead. And I found, especially after a boss or two, there's no reason to block altogether. You have so much health you can just swing until you get some damage before using defensive dice. The only time I'd ever place a dye in blocking is when I had a turn off to heal to full and the enemies defense was high than an attack no longer mattered. Perhaps a mechanic where blocked damage is partially countered, or simply counts for more would make for an interesting trade-off.

The second problem is the "seven" mechanic. At first you have so few dice doubling literally never makes sense, and at 4 dice it almost never makes sense (15/36, of which most are very marginal benefits). Then at five and six dice instead doubling is almost always possible and net positive, making it a no-brainer too. I suppose the only way to really circumvent is, is to have a unique effect, e.g. putting in 7 now, deals/heals X damage in Y turns or gives you +2  to block (or a random stat) for the rest of the battle.

Also, a minor thing that's probably mostly me, but because the doubling of points is only shown after all dice are put in, especially the meaning of the enemy die is hard to see (unless you mouse-over it, which for whatever reason did not occur to me in my playthrough, likely because I can't interact with it myself). I had guessed the effect correctly even without the explicit explanation though, so in that sense the UI was clear :)

Finally, if I'm not mistaken, if you heal and kill on the same turn, the heal does not count. Even though it shows in the battle (e.g. from 25 to 30), the next battle starts with pre-final-turn health levels (25).

The graphics and the music are awesome, but you know that already. :)

Gameplay-wise, I did have fun at the begining, but it became repetitive quite fast; I think it would add something to have the enemies intention displayed on your turn, like "this turn I am most likely to attack/block". Also, do the enemies dispatch their dices between actions at random ? There were times when they could have killed me but didn't because they chose to block or heal for no reason.

I don't see a reason to ever block instead of healing when I am not maxed in HP; blocking gives you extra hp for a turn, while healing gives you extra HP permanently. If the enemy chose not to attack for the full value of your shield, you lose your shield and, in a way, HP, because if you healed, you don't lose whatever value you healed more than what the enemy dealt to you. I don't know how to fix this issue though, I am just pointing it out; maybe have heals be halved, and with the enemies intentions displayed, you would heal when they would not attack. This aside, the combat mechanic was really cool !

And at last, resting in the overworld shouldn't be free. For the common enemies, you can just overpower them by not caring about HP, and healing for free after the battle. If they dropped coins and you had to pay to heal at inns, this would give reasons to be careful and to beat the two enemies on the overworld that are optional.

Great game anyway, I would love to see it become something bigger ! :D

So much fun to play I played nearly 1-2 hours. Also I like the Rimuri referance.

I found myself playing this game way longer than I originally intended when I saw which type of game it is. I found it very capturing, having to make strategic decisions and find it very balanced in its difficulty. Art and music are amazing - great job on this game!

Incredible work, to get such a polished and refined game done in such a short time frame. Kudos! A lot of fun.
I could see this being made into a full-length rpg with customizable dice that you equip and different "skills" you can add to your bar, that sort of thing. Really excellent game.
