Nice game! I liked the idea of using the dice to change things but it felt rather clunky in design.

Fun game and I like the idea of changing the size of objects in the game through a dice, however the element of randomness meant you sometimes had to wait to roll a 6 or 1 making the gameplay a little tedious. Possibly give the player more control over what the size is beyond random chance. Overall a fun puzzle game and quite unique ideas though.

Scunthorpe ScavengerWas fun! There is a lot of potential. The dice was a good starting point for inspiration, but waiting for statistics to work its magic is tedious. I'd say if you decide to continue with this project, ditch the dice for some more deterministic options--equivalent to allowing a player to throw a 1 or a 6 and so on. But perhaps an added puzzle challenge is to limit the uses of each number.

Kosmic KartCool game! The shrinking/ growing mechanic is definitely a pretty fun mechanic that could have a lot of potential if fleshed out more! The two issues I had with game was:
1. The physics felt a bit off, it seems like the character doesn't accelerate fast enough, which is especially apparent in the second level where you have to do a jump with a low ceiling
2. Since most of the time you want a specific result when throwing the dice, it was kind of tedious throwing the dice over and over again hoping for a good result. If you continue to develop it maybe you can make it so the longer you hold down before releasing the higher the number will be?

You are [UN] Dead, Enjoy Your StayHello i do not have any useful feedback but the main character is very handsome

Chesscourt MissionNeat little platformer! You could definitely flesh this mechanic out a lot more. Also might just be my machine, but I get some occasional graphical glitches on the main character.

Apples & PearsVery cool game, the idea is awesome and original!! You could really expand this .. i found the difficulty curve of the levels a bit too steep but it was fun to discover on which objects the dice had effect

Divide et ImperaWere you the guy I told to find a use for the dice in the discord?
The walk animation seems like a bit much, try switching it with a sway back and forth.
Also some visual indication of what I can and cannot throw my dice at would be nice.
Good job with this anyways.

Auto-GunslingerIf you write it means that Linux version is all right. Okay.
And No, I am not that person. I've never entered any discord servers related to Jam.
Yes you're right animations might seems little bit boring. I will modify it soon, walk anim and jump too.
I thought about it but I always forget and start to do other stuffs. In the next version I will add some visual indication of interactive objects.
Thank you for the so volume feedback )
Funny game. I like how you cut sprites to make the main character ;)

The Binding of Theft AutoIt very creative! Ive never played anything quite like it. Personally i think that the game relies to much on R and G and not the players skill.

LIGHT armorThis is such an awesome idea! I could see this being fully realized into a full platformer game. That was really fun to play.
