Thanks! Yeah, we ran out of time to put in any objectives or progression, unfortunately, so you didn't miss anything. The next phase would have been to make it so that after defeating a certain number of slimes, the chicken would have dropped in as a boss fight, and then we could have created other arenas with different mobs and bosses.
It's pretty funny to fight the holy chicken and her slugs) The idea has potential! P.S.: It would be very cool if everyone who sees this message would go and honestly evaluate our game. Because we have already rated over 130+ and continue to do so, and our game has only 29 ratings...

HELLFROSTLike it!
The Effects and abilities from the dice were fun to mess around with. Was also neat that I could push the dice around to try and make it land on a side I wanted.
The damage effects being dice was a really neat touch.

Pair-Dice Dating: Sentenced to DieHaha, yeah, the ability to push the dice around and try to influence what it landed on was something that we stumbled upon during initial prototyping and decided to keep. We really liked the damage dice just because of the sheer number of dice that get rolled, and the associated sound. If we add to the game we'd like to play with particles and/or numbers appearing to make the damage dealt more obvious.
I liked the concept! It was hard to tell when exactly I was dealing damage to enemies though - enemy health bars would've been nice. Additionally, my dice would sometimes push the enemy seemingly out of the damage area. Great job overall!

Protect the Space PlantsTotally agreed that the damage could be more obvious. One thing we would have like to do if we had time was to make the damage appear in the form of damage numbers, particles that fly to the enemies when the dice resolve, or something else entirely.
There are enemy "heath bars", in a way, but it's not super obvious. The cards that the enemy sprites are on changes color from green to red as they take damage.
The dice pushing the enemy out of the way is also a problem, and something we'd like to solve, possibly by making the dice pop out with less force or wait until the attack has finished. It's particularly bad with the fireball, and it can be pretty frustrating, sorry about that :)
Very pretty, and really cool concept. I've never seen damage in PnP-likes represented with a dice explosion from the enemy. With a bit more enemy variation etc. it could actually become a fun and fully fledged game!
