Die in the Mine by Phyro
🎲 Yahtzee meets dungeon crawling! 🎲
⛏️Die in the Mine is a hightscore-based dungeon crawling game where you roll dice to make your actions, being able to reroll twice as many dice as you like. You can move, mine, heal and explode blocks from afar.⛏️
You've got 10 turns to mine as many gold as you can, running away from the monster, and finally jump into the next floor to keep on mining.
See how well you can go and beat your own highscore! 💯
🕹[Complementary Tutorial]🕹
We couldn't make a better tutorial by the deadline, so here are some points on it. - You can only break blocks that are at your height or 1 above. - You can only walk to blocks that are at your height ou 1 above, and fall from any height. - You cannot break where the enemy stands. - You can only roll dice in the Roll Phase and click on "next phase" to go to Action Phase and use the dice with the buttons on the bottom of screen.
The rest is pretty much in the in-game tutorial :)
👽[KNOWN BUGS]👽
- You are able to explode the same tile as your character is at. Don't do that.
- You can lock the dice on the previous turn's position. Don't do that either, please. 💜

Aside from that, I really like the idea here and the graphics definitely have a nice consistent style to them. The audio is pretty simple but fitting and the gameplay itself is pretty fun. Overall, not bad, just a tad confusing, imo. :stuck_out_tongue:
Other than the bug at the end, I had fun! Maybe because I've played plenty of tabletop dice games, I found the rules pretty intuitive. Good game!
The only thing I recommend is been clearer on where can I move and mine, although is highlighted sometimes I have a tile in front of me but I cannot mine it or move to it.
