Hi, welcome to Dicey Dash, a game made for the 2022 GMTK Gamejam! This game is our first completed project, but we think it came out pretty well. Help VI (Six) escape the casino as poker chips and evil dice (VIVIVI/SixSixSix) stand in your way. Be quick or the casino will catch up to you. One hit and you're dead, so be careful as you plan your next move. A couple of small changes were made after the gamejam just to make it more presentable (maybe 5 hours of work).

Some notes (Important):

  • Womp chips (the big ones) will telegraph when they plan on collapsing. Make sure to be out of the way!
  • You can step on a tile where a coin is about to leave to avoid being hit by them.
  • Abilities are selected by using the J, K, L, and ; keys. After selecting an ability J, K, L, and ; are used to select the dice you would like to use for that ability. Also, once an ability is selected W, A, S, and D can be used to choose a direction. Escape/Backspace (Escape will exit fullscreen mode) will cancel dice choices and ability selections. Once you are confident in your selection press enter to use the ability.
  • Some abilities will only accept certain dice combinations or will result in different effects depending on your choice of dice.
  • Selecting an ability causes a tooltip to show up at the top of the screen providing more information on its functionality.
  • Since the theme is Roll of the Dice, if you move while already having 4 dice you run the risk of losing a die you would have rather kept.
