I don't understand when the dice fall. Seems like sometimes they refuse to come. Cool idea.

Horses and GunDon't understand. Some instuctions would be nice. The art is nice.

The Dice Game ShowIt felt like the idea of the game was very good and I could see the face of the giant hidden in the black curtain. It's also fantastic that you're the one doing this game!
However, I spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out the rules but still didn't get the gameplay and I kept falling off the edge and dying.

Countdown to happiness?Thanks a lot, I'm glad you liked it. It was supposed to be a giant but by the time I got around to making it I was dead tired and just wanted it to be done, so I just picked a reused texture and put it on the eyes, and it had those little slits as a coincidence. I kind of like the idea of a cat though, lol. You're just its plaything, kind of like real life.
Very nice looking game. The dice rolling in is very cool!
Died to a skellie cause I ran out of ammo (whoopsie). Had fun with it, really impressive what you made in the time constraints.
My browser just seems to have trouble playing the game, so it feels like its running at 10fps, which is a shame cause I would've loved to play it smoothly.
Overall had a fun time with it, well done!

DobblesteenThis is a very ambitious project, loved the giant's face, super scary when I noticed his eyes. Also scary to see the giant dice rolling. This could turn into a really interesting project with some more work.

Dice saladGreat entry to the jam, was really hard to understand what was going at the beggining maybe adding some notes to the page would help understand easily

Drill The DiceFun concept but it was quite difficult for me to understand the goal or the options. Maybe it would have helped if some (more) people tested it for you?
Really like the idea of actually 'rolling a die' and phyically creating a new random world to play on.

The Dice of LifeYep, totally valid. I had zero testers other than myself as you might imagine, which definitely hurt its readability. I wanted to put in more tutorial style stuff in the actual game, as well as a treasure thing to at least have some kind of score, but barely had enough time to even make the enemies "function". Think I'm going to revisit once the jam is over and improve on pretty much everything.
I liked the setting, but I had no idea how to set bridges (it seems it worked by pressing F).

Luck ArenaThis is actually a really great showcase of a cool idea even if the game itself is mostly jank. Very nice solo project.

Six ShooterDefinitely needed some sort of in-game tutorial or instructions. But I do get in a jam that it can be hard to find the time. I like how the level looks.

Meek and the MightyThis is a really neat concept! As has been pointed out, the lack of directions/prompts within the game itself makes it a bit of a hassle to play. Luckily i could figure it out from the description. Beyond that, i think a couple of small things, like adding a quit/restart button within the game itself and building bridges based on the die the player is looking at, could go a long way.

Out of PocketYeah, sorry. That was probably the worst part was clearing up the issues with showing what was happening. If you pick up the little floating stones, you get rolls, and if you spend them by pressing E on the black poles on each face you roll in two more dice. I'll have to make that clearer in the description.
It seems like it could be the start of a fun game and the presentation is cool, but I had no clue what was going on the whole time or how to make the game progress.
