Great sound design, graphics, and gameplay! Music fit the game, sfx were great, especially when rolling, I like the little drum fanfare. Retro aesthetic was on point, the game loop is tight (although I couldn't figure out the strategy.. I've never played this game before). Great job and solid entry for your first GWJ!

thanks for the kind words! i learned so much from doing this (i usually make stuff in c# so this was my first project exclusively in gdscript/gdshader to make sure it would run in the browser. I also felt like the dice rolls were a strong point, and there was a brief moment of clarity about 10 hours before submissions were due where I considered for a second rewriting the rules and making it more like yahtzee so the player got to just roll the dice EVERY round. Maybe i'll repurpose some of the assets for that, would be a shame to put all that work into a fun dice rolling system only to use once! loved the atmosphere of your entry btw, really cool visual style!
