comments for Cardinal's Dice
sort: go back
Your games are always original. However, I'm fighting a guard here in 1653 that has become invincible. After a few rounds of healing himself, damaging rolls no longer seem to have an effect or trigger damage. God truly is on his side.
good game, but seems you can lock yourself on a guard in 1653 or beyond if you don't have enough melee dice
nice game but feels lackluster with out being able to buy upgrades to your dice (it may happen later i just got my first afterlife standing)
i have 239 dice rolls
ok i won
towards the end it gets a little slow but good game
It's a cool idea but here's what I think would make it better.
(1) There's no actually power curve so you never actually get better despite the fights getting longer. I think this can be fixed by being able to either buy more dice slots or being able to affect the rolls of the dice somehow.
(2) The game feels too slow and repetitive. This can be partially fixed by adding a speedup option so each turn doesn't take so long. But otherwise I think it's up to the developer to figure how best to address this.
(3) Add a confirmation window on the reset button. I accidentally reset the game when I was pretty far into it.
(4) I got this glitch where the .png for all the enemies wasn't loading and their abilities were not working. Their abilities were not shown in chat as well as the notification that they had spawned. They did still count as an enemy defeated.
I'm a big fan of your work louigiverona and I'm excited to see what you'll create in the future.
developer response: Thank you very much for playing the game and providing feedback! This is an experimental game on top of a gambling dice mechanic I invented. I wanted to see if you can build something larger on top of that. And def requires much more work. I added this to the game description so that players have their expectations set properly.
(1) This is sort of by design, because this is how this would work in gambling. But I agree, now that this framework exists, one can step away from strictly gambling mechanics and go into something else.
(2) Agreed
(3) Sorry!!!!!!!!!
(4) I also got it and I so far don't know what causes it. Then again, this code is pretty old, if I were to pick up this game to work on it, I would definitely re-write it to begin with.
Again, thank you for playing and commenting!
Guard are healing beyond their max health and essentially becoming unkillable in a single turn. Please fix this.
I'm also having the issue with the invincible guard in 1653, but im really enjoying the gameplay
save up your melee dice and use them against knights. problem solved
man fuck this dude now i have only 216 dice rolls smh bro
meh. the gameplay is click q and wait
It's a fun enough game but the gameplay is really focused purely on getting lucky with your dice rolls. Sure you can smartly use your dice to help with situations but melee dice only have one purpse and spell dice arguably only have one as well - there really is no reason to use fallen angels when you want to explictly keep your roll cost down. I think what this really needs right now are more uses for spell and melee dice and maybe even ways to control your dice rolls. Being able to fudge a die's value to land a set or straight would be helpful, or maybe even something to incentivise and/or make anything that isn't a set or straight worthwhile and not a complete dud.
No volume controls? In 2023?
I got 420 coins , 21 melee, 11 spell dice from one roll. Possibly make there be a max luck or something like that?
enjoyed it but I had zero clue what was going on and the pay outs didn’t seem to make any sense to me
dang, never knew dice could kill people like that
5/5 nontheless
Great game.... made it up to cardinal.... again?
Payout-table was confusing a bit...
still needs explanation about "when" you get melee or spell dice
Is it straight for spell-dice and triple for melee, or..... ?
For wasting a good amount of time: 4 stars... after a while it's just too active and repetitive.
damn, these deaths are brutal
For the people having problems with the healing guard: if you have saved up some melee dice, you can take him out on the first turn with them. If you're lucky.
