How does the game fit the theme?
Is a dice gambling game, where you have to bet cookies (biscuit) to multiply you score. Lossing cookies will make it difficult to reach the minimum score to play the next level.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
We made all the assets and code.
2 audio effects from JSFXR generator.
The 3d rolling dice code is based on a tutorial, but heavily modified for the needs of the game.

It's addicting! I l
ove it!! Although the first level was really hard :)
Very cool and addictive gameplay! Really impressed with the mechanics and I kept finding myself praying for the next roll. Fits the theme really well, looks and feels polished, amazing job!
Cool game, but didn’t quite manage to work out the strategy to get past the first level.
def one of the better gambling games, it’s very polished and wellmade, it doesn’t feel incomplete especially for two people, goodjob!
Fun little yacht (Yahtzee) variant! Dice sometimes were a little buggy settling down, but they eventually got there. Great job. Very clean and polished look.
very well made game. polished and clean look. and fun to play. great job.
wow didnt expect 3d Dice to roll out of nowhere! Well done! Eas to pick up and play!
Quick Suggestions:
Overall well done!
nice and simple! good submission
Really nice polished game. Great job👍. Finished the game with some extra cookies. I thought I’d save them for the next level. 😅
I wanted to make a shop system that you can buy powers, or extra turns with the cookies you won, I prefered use that time in test playing and polish the things I had.
Thank you for playing
Kudos from one dice game to an other, loved the animations!! and the game was very instersting and cool. Would have loved to hear some background music
Woo another dice game! We were going to take our game in a similar direction but we absolutely would've been stepping in your toes. This is a really nice take on yahtzee and it feels very satisfying to roll the dice. It's difficult to keep people engaged with a repetitive gameplay loop but watching the dice do their thing kept me engaged for a good while. Definitely well done
Nice little game! Simple, but very efficient, and very polished! The art, the sounds (too bad there is not ambient music ^^'), the animation of the die, everything is very clean!
Little bug: I wanted to keep all my die, so I selected the all to keep them, and the game softlocked ^^'.
But other than that, it was a very clever concept that I enjoyed a lot! Congratulations ^^!
This is such a nice game! It's a simple concept, but you executed and polished it so well that kept me for a while playing! Good job!
The dice rolling aesthetic is very satisfying.
The sound design and physics feel truly authentic. It's a delight to play a game that offers such a refined and enjoyable experience for both the senses of sight and sound.
This felt really great to play. One thing this game does very well is to give the player a strong sense of agency for their risk/reward evaluations. Just like the classic Yahtzee, every roll is an important decision. The biscuit mechanics also fit together really well. Use biscuits to boost your score -> Beat the challenge scores and get rewarded with more biscuits -> Use fewer biscuits to carry them over. There is a nice tension keeping the player in the drivers seat in deciding when to allocate resources. The changing scoring patterns for each game keep things fresh. I imagine there will be a clear, correct choice (in the expected returns sense) for where to stack the cookies, however. Even with this simplification, decisions about how much to spend and which rerolls to take remain critically important. Again, this game does a great job at giving the player agency in the face of random outcomes.
This was a lot of fun. Great work!
We put a loot of effort on balancing the Cookie system and the Score to make it fit wll the theme.
Thank for you feedback.
The dice rolling is so juicy (I also made a dice game, but I did not reach these levels of satisfaction on the dice rolling). I've always liked the Yahtzee/King of Tokyo style dice system, so this was right up my alley. Took a bit to get my head around the submitting and cookie betting, but once I got it, everything was clear. The cookies altered the Yahtzee base to add more risk, which is good. I enjoyed it, could have been cool with some upgrades in-between levels, this is very Balatro-able
Glad you like it. I also love Yahtzee games. Adding upgrades was in the scope of the game but I had no time to implement it.
Thanks for playing.
Interesting game! It took a little while to fully understand, but I got there, and it's fun. I found a bug when I clicked too fast to roll after a count, and the dice were thrown outside of the board. Nevertheless, it was a fun experience with great art! The dice animations are very cool and enjoyable!
Loved the game, it was really fun to play, ended up playing and really enjoyed.
Two times I did a mistake by selecting the dices I wanted to replay and not keep
Nice animation on the dice. I am not too sure how to play it.
