Love the style of the game and the mechanics, I'd like a setting to speed up rolls and combat in general though. Keep up the good work! I hope to see a complete game one day ;)
Hey! Awesome game! There are so many fantastic elements in the design of this combat system. I love being able to customize the characters’ dice, there was a good amount of time between rolls and combat felt very smooth. My only issue is that the dice faces are a bit hard to understand. I think plain dice with different colors and simple symbols would be much better :D. Also, this game is gorgeous, the GUI for the combat could use a bit of a rework, but otherwise fantastic project!
