Dobblesteen is a one-man project mini-puzzler about rolling dice and matching nice!

Spawn dice and match the values that pop up. Some want bigger numbers, others smaller. The closer you can get it, the better!


Explanation:

Use the buttons at the top of the screen to spawn dice. There are 4 types. A 4-die, 6-die, 8-die and 20-die. Select a die by hovering your mouse over it and holding the left mouse button. While holding the die, you can shake it to obtain a value by pressing or holding the right mouse button or space bar. 

Match the dice to the values in the circles. A circle with a + or > needs a value greater or equal to what is shown. A circle with a or needs a value smaller or equal to what is shown. A circle with only a number needs a value that matches it exactly.

Clear Circles to earn points. The closer you can get the value, the more points you'll earn!


Possible Future Content / Improvements

  • Android Version: I think this game belongs on a phone.
  • Time rush mode: Thanks to feedback, I found what the game needs is a more goal-orientated mode to challenge the player. So I want to add a game mode where theirs less time, but correctly matching dice adds time. 
  • Sandbox mode: Mode that removes all goals and time limits, and just lets you play with the blocks :)
  • Better Tutorial: The concept seemed to be a bit too abstract. So I'll implement a more in-depth tutorial.
  • Improve dice art + colours: I'm not quite happy with how the dice art and colours came out, so I'll tweak it a bit.
  • Minor tweaks: Add a pause button, change the tutorial text from 'back' to 'continue' etc.

Closing thoughts:

I give no guarantees that any content will be added. My studies have begun again and I have many new projects I have in mind. 

I enjoyed working on this project, and I am very glad I joined the game jam. All in all not bad for my first ever fully completed game!
