Thanks! Happy you liked it!

Thanks! There's a lot more to come; 😁

Looking good! Felt like a retro but still fresh take on battle mechanics. Keep it up!

Nice game if you're into lore and choose your own adventure.

Really cool! Reminds me of Montezuma's Revenge on C64 but with good controls. Loved the temporary one-screen lock that wrapped vertical movement, and then unlocked vertical scrolling again. Never seen that before.

Thank you for the feedback. I want it to be possible to become OP by playing the game right and with some luck on your side, but not that there are rings that is a 100% win if you get it. I agree I have to review the ring ability. The problem with the the Odd ring example is that the triggered dice is decoupled from the ring. The ring tells the dice to count again and then the dice is responsible for scoring, perhaps I can add support for sending a multiplier such as 50%, which can open up for new mechanics too. Have to think about it.

I can relate! 😂
Let me know if you have feedback or ideas what I should add next.

Happy to hear you liked it! Was something wrong with the instructions that I should fix?

Glad you liked it, and I appreciate you take time to tell me! 

It sounds like I might have broken ring rearranging. I will have a look at it and see if I can reproduce and fix it.

Excellent suggestion with the walk controls. I grew up with dungeon crawlers so I know exactly what you mean. I will add it as an option and let the player choose on their first run or in settings.

Thanks for your feedback! Appreciate it. I added touch controls to support mobile in the WebGL build and plan to add it on mobile, but I need to rework the UI for it to be readable. If you have more feedback or ideas, please share. I want to plan the game based on player feedback.

I’ve been solo-developing Die for the Rat King in my spare time, and after a lot of work getting it browser-ready, I finally have a playable web version. Published the page on Itch moments ago!

LINK: https://pixlas.itch.io/die-for-the-rat-king

It’s a gritty, hand-drawn dungeon crawler that mixes dice combat, deckbuilding, and combo-building.

Forge your dice, collect powerful rings, and fight your way through a monster-filled underground.

The game is still actively in development, and I know it needs more balancing, polish, and content, but I’d love your feedback:

• Did any mechanics feel especially fun (or useless)?
• Does the core gameplay feel like it’s missing something?
• Anything confusing, clunky, or frustrating?
• Any ideas you’d like to see explored?
• Other feedback?

If you'd like to help shape development more directly, you're also welcome to join the discussions on Discord (https://discord.gg/BarCMjN23y).

Thanks for checking it out!

Nice! Well done! I like the camera movement, makes it feel more like a physical board game.

Thanks! I made an update today :-)

Varsågoood!

Thanks! Looking forward to see what people make with it!

Thanks! I hope you like it. Let me know if there are features you miss or if you run into bugs.

Thanks! Yes, it’s common to get the first batch of assets rejected. Using this all sizes are correct, and it prevents you from adding text when not allowed. I plan to add similar block against logo when not allowed, and make it mandatory when it’s mandatory for the assets on the storefront. I hope it will help especially indies, solo devs and small teams.

In the next update, I plan to make the Itch section identical in both the demo and the paid version to support last minute game jammers.

Hi everyone!

I just released Capsule Art Studio. I built it because I was tired of wasting time and energy manually resizing assets for different storefronts and social media, only to realize I’d made a mistake and had to redo everything, or spend hours updating them all for just a minor change.

It’s a straightforward tool (no AI) that helps you manage crops, safe zones, and localization for all major platforms, tweak and export organized in folders.

The demo is feature-complete but tests your patience with dad jokes and delays (I call it "annoyware"). If you want to support the project, the full version is 75% OFF ($2.50) for the launch!

Check it out here: https://pixlas.itch.io/capsule-art-studio

I'd love to hear your feedback or ideas for future updates! I also appreciate any tips on where else I can reach out to help people find this tool.

Thanks! It helped me a lot recently. Feels good to share! 😁

Thanks! Going forward I plan to update it based on feedback. Hopefully people will find it useful.

Bra twist när rollerna kastas om, speciellt när man kan ligga bra till och så vänds det mot en.

Kul! Idéen att låta fienderna slå ut varandra medan man själv är harmlös borde man kunna iterera på.

Kul idé att skifta mellan olika mekaniker. Skulle kunna utvecklas vidare som ett pussel-action-spel.

Tack! Det var kul att göra så det bara flöt på tills det landade i detta :-)

Thanks! You're right to assume I went for the "20 moves"-count to save time :-). I found that sometimes games just went on forever and made the rule to force action, but perhaps I should revisit that rule if it makes the game end prematurely too often.

Thank you for the feedback! I think you're right about why the game freezes after finishing level 20.

I would love to alter the levels more than the direction, but they are still in a complicated custom format adapted for the 13kb jam and I didn't have the time to rewrite it. They are actually made in Tiled, parsed with a script into strings that are finally concatenated into a long level data string with things like positions of knives and their times baked into shared bytes. Now, with a little more experience I think I could have skipped some of the tricks since zip probably would do it better anyway...

Again, thanks for the feedback. I'm super happy someone actually finished it with all knifes.

Thanks for playing and for the video. After watching it I think I might need to review the level order. At least level 3 should move to a higher number.

Last commit on github was 15 days ago (2.8 branch). Doesn't seem dead to me.

Congrats! It looks great with details like trees partly submerging the player. Did you create all the assets too or did you buy them? How long did you spend to create it? Perhaps you could find a way to port game data from Aidiania to use this engine you've built, with fresh graphics and more future proof.
