Did you use Generative AI in your project?
100% of the game design, system architecture, core rules, balance criteria, and the "Lucky Number" concept were conceived, directed, and approved by me. Generative AI assistance was utilized across the project as follows:
• Code & Implementation: Claude Code was used as an interactive programming tool to implement C# domain logic, UI Toolkit views/styles, headless bot AI, and unit tests under strict human direction, line-by-line review, and manual debugging.
• Music & Sound FX: The acoustic main theme ("The Six Faces") and god power sound cues were procedurally synthesized via custom Python DSP and physical modeling scripts authored with AI assistance under developer direction (no third-party generative music services like Suno or Udio were used). Additional interface sounds use Kenney CC0 samples.
• Text & Dialog: In-game tutorials, rule descriptions, and UI tooltips were drafted with AI assistance and hand-edited for brevity and clarity by the developer.

I liked the game and the visuals a lot. I would suggest some sort of way to make the bot turns move faster (I tried the speed up button but it still felt slow). Otherwise great game, good job!

Really like how you combined mythology with Risk-style strategy.  The idea of your lucky number being another god's curse fits the theme really well. The clean UI and music give it a nice atmosphere too. Great work!

I like how much depth you created with a simple UI, not that it is simple ugly, I think the overall theme makes the game clean and visible.The game is enjoyable to play and the way you utilize the Lucky Number is really unique! Still I would love to have a tutorial instead of a rulebook, it did make me feel like playing a boardgame at the beginning. But still very enjoyable game!

Developer

Yup you're right. It's a heavy, complex board game, and the mechanics are tough to grasp in a short 10-minute session. I've become really attached to this project, so I'll be looking into building out a full tutorial in the future to help smooth out that learning curve.

That would be amazing! Looking forward to it!

Reminds me of Risk board game, especially fighting,... lost 8v1 fight unlucky. Fun game, gj!

Developer

Honestly, even I got frustrated playing it, and I'm the one who programmed it to be fair! Sometimes that's just how it goes.

Although it took a little while to understand how to play at first, it’s a really well-made game!

Developer

Thank you :). I'm glad you think that!

I absolutely loved this game!!! I think the way you combine the gods’ actual powers with the meaning behind each of their abilities is so creative. What blew my mind the most was the whole logic behind using opposite sides of the dice to create the opposites of each god’s number. That was seriously mind-blowing! The music is also really gooooood. 

Amazing job, congrats!!! :)

I love how you mixed Risk-style strategy with mythology and dice mechanics. The whole your lucky number being someone else's curse thing is clever. Great job man

This reminds me of the game Rapture. But with a twist. Good effort though, fun to play with luck and great to play on phone.

It is something I will be looking into the future because this game really grew on me :)

Cool theme. More gods as options could be nice.

Developer

Will be looking forward to it, thanks for the feedback!

Hey man, how did you get the idea for that board game? 

Developer(+1)

Well last month we played this board game: risk global domination. And when I saw the jam's theme I wanted to make a board game that had all this powers and chaos. So I went with one of my favorite subjects, mythology and then I started to build this whole idea.

Interesting! A dark mode would’ve been a nice QoL addition :D good job!

Developer(+1)

actually really wanted to include that! Since I built the whole game solo, I had to be a bit strict with my time, but I love that we're on the same page. Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback :)!
