I love the player sprite for this, looks fantastic! I thought this was a unique take on the concept, and really enjoyed the different level designs you put together for the different combinations of dread - had a lot of fun!

This is a pretty fun game! I like the idea of randomly trying out different paths with different level mechanics to get through a level. It could be interesting to see something like this in a game with multiple levels, where you beat the level to advance to the next even if you go through just one path. Overall, great job on the game!

Fun game! In love with the art style!

thanks!

This was pretty fun and a clever use of the dice! I appreciate you made unique levels for the different combinations, and the little water level was cool. If this is your first jam you're doing well for yourself, good job!

Thanks! I played your game and it's WAYYYY better than mine

Submitted

I like the concept but fell out of the level a lot, great controls though, felt good to play!

Developer

I hoped no one would notice lol. forgot to add borders until after I submitted it. Thanks for the feedback!

Really cool game congrats! There is no constructive criticism I can give: the art is amazing, use of limitation is very original. Maybe when you die a game Over screen would be nice just to slow down the game which is kinda fast

Developer

Thx!

Very nice game! The use of the limitation is very good. The pixel art is also nice! Very well done on your first game jam!

Thanks!

The game is pretty hard, but having to complete the level from different locations based on the rolls is an interesting idea. I think the idea could be expanded on well if each path was a bit more interconnected to one another.

The graphics are quite nice, especially the dinosaur. Nice job!

Thanks! i didn't have time to add an end screen lol. But I'll keep that in mind for my other games

Thanks!

This is cool! Seems like the die roll determines which path you will take. Enjoyed my time with it, although some of the jumps were brutally hard. Good work!

Thanks!

I still don't understand the mechanic and that isn't good as I should unserstand it fully. But the pixelart is really nice and the limitation *seems* well implemented ?

When you roll the the dice it gives you 2 elements you dread, this means you cannot touch them. The setting you are in depends on the elements  you dread. Look at the tutorial on the main menu for further explanation.

Its my first game jam so i had a lot of other things I didn't have time to add :)

Nice Game! 

Developer

thx!

I really like the gameplay and concept

Submitted

Really like the concept! Took me a little while to fully understand the idea, but got it in the end and had fun.  Love the cute art style as well, looks great! 

Could've benefited from some music, but otherwise a good game overall. Especially for your first game jam.

Thanks for the feedback. I suck at making music tho :)
