Great work, the highly anticipated return of Dr Blake!
Would be nice to turn the street into something more grid like a grid by adding little dots for example, so you know how many steps you need. Also a idea to fill up the map is to place trees in the area, middle and lefttop. Also you should try setting the filter to point. Go to your sprite in unity > go to filter and you will see what I mean.
Might have been better if I had a way to affect the outcome of the game.
There doesn't really seem to be any skill involved in this, you litterally just click a button and the game plays itself, so form of actual interaction could make this very interesting.
Fun little game, would be nice if there was some choice involved though.
Cool art, but rolling dice game could really use some multiplayer.
It's a little hard to tell where I'm supposed to land when I roll a number.
I like the art and sound effects. Unfortunately, the game itself is missing any elements of interesting choice.
I like the board game concept, but there didn't feel like there was much choice/feedback as to why things were happening. You could absolutely expand something like this though, its a really cool idea.
Didn't seem like a game really since was just random. If no skill involved, it's just a game of chance. However, after reading your comments, I totally understand -- we shouldn't forget this was a game competition. Just having code that works is a triumph! Sound, graphics, some kind of story... Good effort.
It's good to see a board game in there, although it is the equivalent of snakes and ladders where it is all luck based currently. Would like to see it developed further.
Really enjoyed the mood, but got confused very quickly! Fun tile actions though!
I liked the audio a lot and the interaction with the game went smoothly. Sometimes it did feel like I had to wait a while or press space several times before I could actually roll the dice on my turn. But it wasn't any real problem. I have a hard time enjoying this style of board game IRL though, and on computer as well. Simply because it doesn't allow for tactics or agency on part of the player. So I would really appreciate if there were ways to be smart about things, like getting to add or remove dots on the dice to a limited extent. Given some pool of such ability. That would also help dealing with the short-cuts that the monster finds, it was really hard for my monster to ever get to the later half of the playing field. So I think it has a good start, but it needs to give more control over the outcome to the player.
