Interesting mechanics!
I think it's very unique as far as the game design went here regarding assigning dice to abilities. It's a good balance of managing random chance with player agency.
Sadly I felt it wasn't very fair at times, enemies would rapidly gain shields at a pace faster than I could deal with.
This chicken player unit is now my sworn enemy! The ice attack is not very useful! Curse you chicken!
All jokes aside I think this game has some potential, if you polished it up and added more content I think it could be very good!
Well done! :)

I like this game a lot! There are a lot of abilities and creatures, and I think it works nicely. I think it's the right length for a game jam too. I didn't understand what the numbers of the dice roll were for at first. I understood when I got a creature that needed a certain value, but before that I thought higher value dice were supposed to do more damage or something. It also didn't seem like the snail's thunder ball did anything? I couldn't tell if it did at least.
