A good example of team work in my opinion. You could tell it was thought out and each of you had a role to play in the design. There were a couple little bugs where icons overlapped text on the popups but nothing terrible (HTML version). I played around a couple times, well done!
I find the game to be good, unique and innovated, I believe the problem lies in your dice rolls, sometime my dice doesn't roll at all or doesn't feel like a dice. I don't play much board games but I can see that this board game was pretty well made.
I felt like this was a very unique take on the theme. While the game itself is very intuitive it would have been nice to have some goal or objective instead of just clicking around on tiles and dropping dice. Speaking of the dice, at times they felt clunky to drop sometimes and felt very easy to manipulate in their current implementation. Overall though a relaxing game and good soundtrack!
That was really fun. I enjoyed every card and the "randomness" element helped a lot - I went to jail, got hurt, went mountaineering, broke my legs ... Amazing!
This was pretty interesting! Dice throwing was too slow, and once you have a lot of visited tiles it's boring having to click on several to reach a new tile, some pathfinding here could really help. The game is pretty balanced, it seems difficult to lose but I never had more than 72 years of life, which seems very real. Congratulations!
However, I have two points I want to give. 1. Outcomes are somewhat unrealistic. For example, most people that win a lottery have it worse than before. They don't live 9 years longer because of that. Maybe homeless or desperately sick people, but they usually don't play lottery anyway. 2. The dice throwing felt unnatural. I could very very very easily manipulate the outcome of the dice as they just fall down and if their rotation is nice, they will just stay like this. There's no rolling of dice.
All in all, very nice job and nice ideas. I really liked the graphics style. Keep up the good work.
I lived 136 years and died of bad food. Very nice idea but only marginally related to the theme. I liked the game. Nice job on the cards and ideas on what could happen in life. :slight_smile: Keep up the good work.
@mags@mia-devs I thought for a very long time about what kind of game to do for the current theme, and as a result I interpreted the years of life into currency, and the events into the goods for purchase, maybe my thoughts went somewhere else.
@kaisean-games Thanks for playing. Yes, the bones did not work out very well, I am not familiar with 3D physics.
quite a lot of effort and game is interesting but not innovative i had played a lot of games like this. Game is matching with the theme. anyways nice entry :) all the best
Really a fun game! I quite like the board-card genre, and this game leaves me quite relaxing mood. BTW, the dice is not totally rng, and I can always roll what I need XD
Really polished and easy to play, with a lot of humor in the tiles and results. Despite the (on point) commentary with the random dice rolls effecting your life, did feel there was some control in the direction and the risks the player took.
I'm amazed you made this in just 3 days, given a bit more polish I would think this was a fully released game! I did find a bug with the game not registering certain movements and not showing the potential movement directions. Other than that though I really hope you continue to work on this post jam
Very cool entry! The game design is quite original and different. Unfortunately I managed to get stuck with my dice leaning onto each other and the game couldn't go on. I'm not sure if having those "realistic" dice is really necessary, since a simple RNG would have done it. Pretty cool and fun game regardless! Lots of cool ideas to be found here.

Art is great, Music is Great!
Mechanics are Great!
Your team and your game is awesome!
PS. Very little connection to theme

Thanks everyone!
Loved that there was some manipulation of the dice.
The art and variety of cards is really impressive for 48 hours
congratulations

I liked the 3d models of the board pieces a lot.
