Thank You
For checking out my game! This is a submission for the GMTK 2022 Game Jam. The theme was "Roll of the Dice". I was inspired to make an autobattler because of the random nature of them, but I wanted the twist to be "putting your foot on the scales". Overall I'm happy with what I accomplished.

I made it to endless mode...finally.
Congratulations! Glad you liked it enough to play to the end :)
thanks for adding more after the demo
Thanks for following along and all of your kind words over the journey :)
I just shipped the final update -- going to close off Dice Heroes. The latest update has updated visuals. Hope you enjoy :)
Decent would love to see a full game with more dynamics and polish
Super great! I absolutely love this concept! It was super fun trying to get farther and farther, obviously like everyone else I wanted to keep going after I beat it. Great job!
great game it would be better if there was an infinite mode since I'd grind the crap out of it for so long and it'd be so much fun
I've gotten several requests for that! To be completely honest, I didn't expect the game to be as popular as its ended up being.
I intentionally didn't let you loop because I wanted people to give people a chance to be "Finished" 😅
I know I know but there are a lot of people who would love an infinity mode
Really good game and characters. It kept me hooked for the full game length. I particularly liked the mimic entangling that kept me alert.
Everybody comes to the idea of random but you created mechanism which gives the player control. Quite interesting game.
This is such a great game! Don't know why you think its sloppy I think it looks really nice. Far and away the best game I have seen so far. Really good job!!!!
Your words are very kind. Thank you very much ❤️
Hello! Thanks for checking out my game. Please feel free to leave honest reviews -- I welcome your feedback 🙂
This was my very first attempt at "real" pixel art for a game. I think it turned out well enough! Sloppy, but it works.
it may not be the best but it is up there
Thanks! I think I would agree, I'm still shocked people like it as much as they do :)
you are a better creator then what you may think since I know how it is to create a website but, creating a game you have to think about what you want it to become while making sure it appeals to others. Which I will say you did greatly on it and I'm suprised that you respond to almost all comments too so that is something great that you don't see often so I hope to see some more games from ya!
