Casinos are indeed a great example of only delaying the inevitable. I also like the roguelike direction of the game and the different upgrade paths with the shop. However, I have to agree with the previous commenter, I was very confused what to do. Also, I feel mouse controls could have been better because you are essentially only clicking buttons and that's faster and easier with a mouse and makes the navigation easier. But I like the idea and because it's an extra game I assume you are allowed to keep tweaking it.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":832544,"author_name":"Fionnabhair","author_uid":"fionnabhair","epoch":1650229732,"text":"So, it took me a few tries to figure out how cashing out actually worked, but it was a good game as soon as I did. Like @likirus mentioned, it would have been easier to navigate with a mouse rather than just keyboard. \n\nI couldn't find a way to bypass the shop without buying something, which is what I usually wanted to do if I didn't like the upgrade options or I was just low on cash. I think that might be by design? It certainly made the game more difficult.\n\nManaged to get as high as $19,000. No plans on going to Vegas anytime soon.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld50\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/dexdexdex\/house_wins","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/dexdexdex.itch.io\/fair-dice-game","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"83866","g_author":"1239459","g_event":"LD50","g_eventkey":"110","g_subevent":"EXTRA","g_urlkey":"391540","g_title":"Fair Dice Game","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"3","g_site2_node_id":"292085","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"292085","n_urlkey":"391540","n_parent":"276397","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/50\/fair-dice-game","n_slug":"fair-dice-game","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"extra","n_author":"239459","n_created":"1649566427","n_modified":"1758927777","n_version":"906732","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD50","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":1,"author":239459,"body":"A Fair Dice game where you inevitably will lose all of your money!\n\nPlayers can choose dice to hold.
