Mechanics are simple yet puzzles are challenging. I only experience one bug: at 4rth level if player moves 4 to right it stucks in the barrier. Not too important but I like to mention it.

Crab Nabbit!I can not really add much besides all that has already been said. It's a cool concept and a fairly polished execution. If i had to criticise it'd be the repetitive nature of the audio. But there is not much you can do about that in such a short period of time. (A little trick i personally sometimes use is to randomly increase or decrease the pitch of the audio a bit to invoke the feeling of variation.)

Dizardeveryone has pretty much said all the good things that i also agree with. I want to talk about the itch page, it looks really cool that you merge the game into the webpage. But to me, it's a bit confusing to find out where is the WebGL frame. Slightly different background color may be better idk

Hungry DiceThe game looks amazing! The best puzzle game I've played in the jam yet! The puzzles are really clever and the mechanics are simple to understand.
I feel like the theme isn't used a lot because the dice rolls aren't really random but still a very good job!

A Dice MealThanks to everyone who has played my game! I agree with the criticism that roll is annoying and tedious (it certainly is). However, I think a lot of people aren't understanding what the central mechanic is supposed to be. The central mechanic is *not* that you roll to determine your next move, it's that you use the faces of the dice as a movement resource that can be used up. summed up in one sentences: the faces of the dice are a movement resource, used to roll your character around. The dice rolling was simply a visual way of switching between them, not intended to be the main mechanic. Thanks for understanding! :D
Nice and simple puzzle! Give a medal to someone who pitched a Skip button :)

Dice King JourneyNice visuals and well thought out puzzles. It doesn't have much to do with rolling a dice though.
