That was lovely! I liked how each dice is its own character with a different personality.  One small thing about the dialogue: if I click once I don't want to skip right away, I just want to skip the dialogue animation! 1 click - show me all the text, 2 clicks - actually skip the line.

Thanks for your feedback!

We have a few quality of life improvements to deliver based on the playtest, and we will make sure to make the dialog flow better and allow people to have more control over it.

The presentation was superb but I did find the gameplay a little lacking. I think I rolled rather luckily on some of the encounters so I ended up not really using any of the dice that reduce your number. Also there was a bug where the game let me walk past the last encounter. I think I failed the roll once and then the arrow appeared?

Developer

Hello! You may have been lucky, it's the principle with the dice! 😁 But you're right, we have deliberately lowered the difficulty of the game to allow a quick and complete discovery. Maybe we will raise the difficulty later to make the game longer. Thanks for playing and thanks for your feedback.

This was an amazing game, super polished, super cute game! I liked it so much that I had to explore all the map! Gosh those sheep are lovely "Sheep are not cheap" lol :-). The puzzles were so enjoyable, the dialogue was so well written and funny! This was a lot of work to pull off in 48 hours so congratulations! If you have additional time to work on it after the jam, I noticed a few minor things, when you walk again in the "rooms" where you found a die, you find it again (I was expecting the room to be empty) As well at the last room where you fight the black girl, you have the option to go Left afterwards, even though on the map there is no left (and it takes you on step back and one step left).

Ah! the theme of the sheep on a strike should have given it away that you are french! I had to read the other comments to realize it! (Moi aussi du coup)

Developer(+2)

Hahaha, le dé grognon aussi ! 😂

Ohlala, mais j'ai aucune presence d'esprit!

The characters are great! The game could be a bit more fast-paced IMO but over all I enjoyed it! Love the dead looking eyes of the dice :D

Thank you :)

That's a quality game, made by fellow french people ! (Your pseudo gave it away). That's a lot of good writing, and the polish is flawless, well done !

Developer(+1)

Haha yeah, we’re a bunch of French people working in the same consulting company, and we love video games so we started participating in game jams together ☺️🥖

Wonderful game! The art and finish are really nice. Had fun playing it! Good Luck!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

The polish on this is extremely impressive.  It's a simple system, but the different dice and requirements keep it fresh throughout.  Great stuff.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for your kind review!

Developer

Great game! Love the character design, UI and the gameplay. It was just challenging enough to make me want to play it all the way thru!

Developer

That's a super nice thing to read, that you wanted to play all the way through ! Thanks a lot for your time <3

Cool game with good way to use the theme.

Developer

Thanks a lot !

Submitted(+1)

A+ on the visuals for sure. You did all of this in 50 hours? Wow! Love all the different characters and the different abilities of the dice. Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing ! Yes, we did all graphics assets during the jam but we didn't sleep so much 😅.

Submitted(+2)

Really good character design! The only bugs I noticed were that cutscenes would play again if you reenter a room. Also, the transition screen should probably be a little bit faster. Great game!

Developer

Hey ! Thank you so much for playing and for your feedback <3

Yeah, this bug with the cutscenes appeared not far from the deadline, while we fixed a bug that would crash the game...well the game doesn't crash ! :D But yeah, we didn't have the time to fix this one :/

Thank you again!!

This game looks so polished, I'm amazed it could be produced in 48 hours!  I love the character design for the main character and all the dice.  All the little flourishes (like the dice joining scenes) really adds a lot of character to this game.

I appreciated the element of exploration to find new dice friends and get past increasingly difficult challenges.  A really fun take on the theme, and a super enjoyable experience overall!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing, and for a very kind feedback!! We're glad you liked it <3

Awesome submission, the level of polish on this was is astonishing. Great art, and a fun story with lots of small gags. Really good job! I can't believe you were able to do all this in mere 50 hours :) .

Developer(+1)

Haha! Thanks so much for the compliments! We were 6 in the team and 2 of us didn't sleep the whole weekend. For my part, I was in charge of the graphic direction and it was very intense. We gave it our best shot and it's so nice to read your comments. Thank you.

Developer

Glad you liked the narration!

It’s our third jam together for most of the team, so I think we are able to work much more efficiently now. But we couldn’t have done it without Tayteus, our artist, and the sheer amount of drawings he produced ☺️

This game is so polished! The play is really fun and collecting new dice is exciting.

Submitted(+2)

This game looks beautiful from the itch page to the final screen. Wonderful little adventure! Super work!

Developer

Thank you for playing... and streaming ! 😉

Dear team!
This game look feels and sounds absolutely astonishing. I don't know, how you did it, you are probably a team of geniuses?  I cannot think of more words of appreciation, so I will just say I think you keep enough talent and dedication to go and develop a commercial game if you are not already doing that!

Developer(+1)

Wow, thank you for all these nice words. We put a lot of effort into delivering this game and it's very encouraging to read these compliments. We're not video game professionals but it might give us some ideas! 😅 Thank you so much.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!! It was a team effort, we put our souls into it :) 

It's just a hobby project for now doing the GMTK and Ludum, but maybe someday :)

Amazing game ! Beautiful art and UI and funny dialogues !!

Developer

Thank you, happy you enjoyed it!
