A short, challenging platformer where you - our plucky dice-headed hero - tries to navigate their way through a dungeon full of danger, rolling and jumping to avoid obstacles.

NOTICE! THE GAME DOES TAKE A WHILE TO LOAD, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT.



Controls (In- game too):

Left mouse (hold) - Roll     [Sometimes, you may need to double tap to actually roll - sorry...]

Right mouse (click) - Jump

Escape ~ Back to main menu


I created this game in 48 hours for the GMTK Game Jam 2022, under the theme: "ROLL OF THE DICE"

Thanks to Itch.io for the tilemap art, and to the Unity Asset Store and Internet for the music and SFX. The player was created by yours truly.


If you find any bugs, please feel free to leave a comment - it would really help develop this further.

EDIT: I HAVE found that, on some computers, the death and level end screens are oversized, so I'd appreciate that if you've had that issue, if you could let me know what machine that happened on - so I can try to work out why. Thanks!

fun game, however I couldnt beat it because the roll function just stops working at a point? the animation begins then the character just keeps walking fairly early in. like the third part you have to duck

Hmmmm...  That hasn't happened to me quite yet but it may be something to do with the fact that you can only roll for up to 2 seconds? Or it may just be another bug to add to the long list of ones that i've already found! :p

it's not that the roll ends after 2 seconds, the animation begins for tucking into a ball but I never start rolling. happens consistently at the same spot

Ok, thanks for letting me know. I'll look into that.

Happens to me consistently at the third obstacle you have to roll under. I don't think it's because of my timing.

Thats very useful - I'll see if I can fix that ASAP
