How does the game fit the theme?
The game is based on Liar’s Dice, where you can’t trust what your opponent says. Bluff, deceive, and call their lies to win.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code, art, and other assets were made during the jam. The only exception is the SFX, which were sourced from copyright-free libraries and used according to their licenses, with credit given where required.

The art style is so cool! The game itself fits the theme really well, too.
One thing I would like to highlight is the font used for the numbers in the game. It's a bit small and hard to read, BUT it's also integrated so well with the art style. Since there are only numbers from 1 to 9, I found "interpreting" them really fun and interesting — it gave the game a lot of personality and an extra layer of fun, in my opinion it was a good decision. The game was very fun, great job!
I love the art style! I thought this game was really fun to play once I got the hang of it. Great job with your game!
Love the art style but i must say : the dice are hard to read, and also the numbers are downright diabolical to read, other than that the core loop is solid, i had fun playing !
Cool idea and definitely see the Liar's Dice inspiration. The text is VERY difficult to read in certain places. The animations were slick and clean! Good job but definitely keep in mind for next time that readability especially at different screen resolutions is important!
Cool game! And the pixel art is so nice too. I like how the rule works!
Thanks!
The pixel art is so nice. The concept of the game is interesting and fun to play. Great work :)
Thank you very much!
Overall Game looks good , sticked to the theme. Visual and Art is nice.
Thanks!
very cute little game! I love the visuals
Thanks!
Fun game! I like the art style, animations and the color palette are also very good. The font is a bit hard to read, but overall, there's not much to read, so it's not a big deal. It's an interesting approach to the theme and it's nice that the backstory is included! Nice work! ♥
Thank you very much!
The visuals are nice however the text on screen could be a bit more readable because rn it's kinda hard to read
Thanks, I agree that the font isn’t ideal.
Really nice game, the pixel art is nice, I liked it !
Thanks!
Interesting gameplay and the art is cute, but the font is really hard to read
Thanks, I agree that the font isn’t ideal.
It was fun to play, nice work! I also like how there are not many interface elements on the screen, just the most necessary ones, and pixel art style is also quite pleasant to look at.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
Was a bit hard to get at first, usually i dont understand when is my turn or the others. But, visuals and audio were amazing.
Thanks!
Other than the font which is a bit hard to read, everything was good!
Art, color palette game play and UX was good!
Thanks!
Cool game ! The rules are fun and the art is really cute. Well done :)
Thanks!
Such an outstanding game — I love the sound effects! The dice sounds have such great texture. I'm also a little curious — were the bartender's voice lines (like the 'mm-hmm' kind of sounds) recorded by yourself? They're so fun, hahaha! ;D
Thank you very much! There weren’t, I’m too anxious to record myself.
I have to say that this one was really REALLY GOOD! It’s another one of my favorites for this jam; the only thing I’m going to flag is that it “feels” like the bartender simply “ups” the bid by one without even looking at the dice he has, so it’s quite easy to push the bartender into a corner and then call LIE.
If this had a smarter AI, then this would be the perfect game for this jam! Great work! :)
Thank you very much, I appreciate it! I agree, and I wanted to make a better AI, but due to the time limit, I decided to implement items instead, so it would be a bit more unique than just making a more advanced AI.
Really nice charming little game! Music and sfx choice were really nice and fitting. Theme also fits very nicely. Great job!
Thanks!
Nice work here! I'm glad to see someone else did a game based on Liar's Dice! Everything here is very well put together and I think this fits the theme very well. I'd be curious on the decisions you implemented for him to bluff or not.
Also, congrats on the solo dev. The music and art are very pleasant and come together nicely
Thank you very much, I appreciate it! His decisions are a combination of analyzing his own hand, the number of dice in the game, your last call, and a steady list of valid calls to fall back on. For example, at the beginning, if you call 1 2, he will call 1 3. To be honest, it’s not the most advanced system, and I would have taken it further if I had more time.
