Nice game. I think it would be nice to somehow force player to roll. Because right now when you got a good roll there is no reason to change. Just move and attack.

The art style is something that makes me smile! The game is so good-looking that I want to play again and again - well done!
i love the character sprites and animations! it would be nice to have a visual indicator for the player's hp. sometimes it appears that die rolls do not give consistent effects (e.g. a roll of 1 either gives a single or dual shots). maybe the effects can be varied too so there are situations when one roll is better than the others because i kept rolling to get a 3 or 4 and played like normal. but i enjoyed it anyway and i'm sure these are easy fixes. great job.
Overall quite fun to play, however I think the charakter moved a bit too fast for the camera and I managed to get stuck after rolling against a wall. Still pretty solid game!
This really is one of my favorites so far. Really simple but super fun at the same time. The art really sells it to me. Good Job!
Totally in love with the art style, simple and nice to look at.
The gameplay, altough it could use some more mechanics, feels really smooth and is so much fun. Great job! :)
The sprite and art combined with the sounds is a well put together experience. I would of liked to have some kind of UI showing action cooldowns to help with the 1 life system
