Incredibly addictive gameplay! I had to tear myself away from the game to check out the other players' games.

We have a new meta :)

Love dice games, and this one has a lot in it. Not unexpected, your games are always really good. Well done!

What a great concept. Integrating customization system in a satisfying strategy game was a genius idea.

Initially, I misunderstood the game system by a little bit and I was just choosing randomly. However, once I realized how the abilities stack up, it became a very satisfying experience. Gameplay, polishing, and visuals are all well done. I would definitely revisit the game for a higher score, since my current strategy is just to specialize in one part of the buffs. 

My best run was specializing in 1 item which reapplys dices of 4-6 and straight up added 2 more that does the same thing. Then, I added a x3 on dices of 4-6 and doubled my previous ones. I did I ended up barely reaching the leaderboard with a name I would say is a bit.... uhhh...... just look at the image down below. Gonna be happy with my #10th for now.

One thing I want to say is that for some of the combinations, lots of it is based off dice rolling luck. I might have overlooked this function, but if the game can roll dice and check automatically, that would be great.

Great job!

Update: I did revisit the game:)

Excellent, everything is well made and the concept is simple and fun. Congrats !

Whoa this was really well done. A really tight and fun game loop -- props! Also, the little cards are very cute and opening the deck is very satisfying -- I love eye option #2 ahahah.

Curse you Loten and your addicting games! I was tempted to try all 766,480 combinations, but I didn't have time because I needed to grind to the leaderboard. I can't find anything wrong with your game except that for some reason, the background starts to hurt my eyes after too long. Not exactly sure what would cause that, but thought you should know.

That’s good to know, in the future I can add a way to disable animations like this. Thanks for the play.

I spent way too much time playing this game...but I made it to the leaderboard so it was worth it. Amazing game. Only critique would be that when replaying, you have to keep redoing your character too so my leaderboard character was not my cute character I made 

Developer(+1)

That’s some really good feedback and probably explains why so many people on the leaderboard have the default look. Thank you for playing.

Was amazing, super super impressed with all the stuff, the polish, the SFX (Godette was my favourite)

Damn, I really wanted to play some more games in todays session, but I just played this for 40 minutes xD 
Really good job, I love the juice. Nice soundeffects, everything moves with the cursor, good animations and particles. All around a great entry. Love it!

Submitted

Cool concept! Leaderboard is absolutely awesome!

Submitted

Favorite game so far! Really great work! The leaderboard function was a great touch!

Submitted

Surprisingly high quality for this particular round, very well done. Just a personal skill issue that I don't have the patience to count to get much enjoyment out but I did get about 20k which was a total accident.

Really nice pixel art, especially on all the items. The customization of the character felt like a side thing but it was still good with some fun variety. I thought my strategy was great and then I only got 250 points lol
