This game is amazing! PLEASE put this on early access, you all should be compensated for this.
A couple of notes for future updates:
The finish button needs to be a different color. I spend about five minutes before realizing that the button was there. When the player finishes placing their dice, make that button light up. It’ll get the player’s attention immediately!
Give a tutorial- interactive is preferred but even a small one is good! The quicker you can get your player to understand your game the quicker they see the brilliance in its design.
You should definitely put this on Steam Early Access and charge for it. It's fantastic and you deserve to make money on it. And if it starts selling you can add more content and keep amplifying those sales. And if it doesn't sell, well, then you haven't lost anything. :)
1. When fighting the Bee with music and sfx muted when it goes into red mode the sound comes back on.
2. When you beat the frog the second time the text says "Not even with this cursed sword I can beat you" I think it's supposed to be "can I beat you"
I like the change to the floor skipping event. Previously there was no reward and no reason to use it, this gives you something for losing out on upgrades.
Got into a battle after having my dice randomized and after one turn lost my only red die. I had 7 boost and one shield, so I couldn't take damage, but couldn't deal damage. Soft locked.
I'm not someone who 100%'s games I come across. But from what I've seen so far, this has got to be the most fun and bat shit difficult free Roguelike I have ever played. I got pissed off on how hard enemy encounters were but always knew it was possible to beat even with the regular grade dice. The mechanics to fighting was nothing like I've seen before and having dice as the main form of weapons and support tools made every new draw a bit interesting. I wasn't really engaged that much with the visuals, and the music was too repetitive after 6 hours of painful retries so I had video essays playing in the background to make the 20-30 minute runs to level 20 a bit more bearable. You did not need to go that hard on the bosses and enemies but it felt incredibly rewarding, like being a micro center employee after a 5th cup of decaf trying to survive black friday finally seeing the morning sun come up rewarding. I thought after reaching floor 25 that I would have to increase my max HP to 56 to survive the first attack of the other frog before phase 1 starts, but I was shocked when that wasn't the case and it was "just do another run" syndrome that I did and ended up with the most underwhelming fight in this game. I loved the mechanic of sharing a board and attacks being readable but geez he places dice first and only fights after you use your dice secondly. Even with the queen bee giving you awesome and interesting buffs/de-buffs she still does enough damage to justify making risky plays. (doing 20-28 damage a hit I think is still too much but at least it's a 2 turn choreograph). Shit, I'm giving my opinion when I shouldn't, let me summarize my last thoughts then; "The Evil Frog fight is not as hard as I thought it was going to be and I prepared for it thinking it was going to be harder than floor 21 at the very least". Thank you for reading my Ted Text. -Guy in your Walls
This game is a unique turn based roguelike game that uses dice instead of cards as a means to block, heal, and deal damage. Very easy to play, and get addicted to!
This game really surprised me with how unique its mechanics were! Familiar enough to grasp easily, but unique enough to offer a very distinct gameplay experience from anything I've ever played. The graphics are gorgeous, the gameplay is solid. New characters when? My only gripe is the music, which was a little lacking, IMO!
Here's my video on it! I'll be keeping an eye on this one!
This is an incredible game @Alarts. Thank you for making it! I can't wait to see what new mechanics you'll include in future updates.
One suggestion I have is to include an exit button. I downloaded the game since the browser version doesn't seem to save progress, and I haven't been able to find a way to exit the application from within it.
this game is very good but the boss is simply impossible to pass please fix it there because there is simply no way I've done countless good runs and on the boss I couldn't pass at all and when I was playing I felt that there was little variety of dice but other than that it's too good
Hey there, I am sorry to hear that, perhaps you miss the boss mechanic? It involves placing those honey dice correctly, once you understand it, it gets much easier!
I’m kind of obsessed with this?? It’s exactly the game I was looking for and I don’t know how I would’ve found it on purpose - but I’m so glad I stumbled into it!
I love the deckbuilding, and the turn-based combat, and the permadeath. But I especially love the dice placement mechanic, that’s so inspired.
I can’t wait to play more of this when I get the time! ^^
qq for you @alarts; have you ever played dice masters? It's the one of the few "dice building" games from IRL that I'm familiar with -- maybe a good resource for inspiring additional content/further development of Die in the Dungeon? Happy to help however I can; brain-storming, coding, etc., etc. Just lmk/DM me
I really love the game, althrough I found a bug: dice at their highest level can still get upgraded by the "3 random upgrades" encounter, which wastes the upgrade.

An absolutely simple and fun roguelike dice game. I constantly find myself forgetting to go to bed while playing.
I got killed by another frog that did 50+ damage on their first go
when you go to there gain , you can fight him directly
Really fun game!
I hate getting bullied by the three purple guys with bows and arrows 😭
This game is great and it's so cool how often the devs are updating it!
Two bugs I found:
1. When fighting the Bee with music and sfx muted when it goes into red mode the sound comes back on.
2. When you beat the frog the second time the text says "Not even with this cursed sword I can beat you" I think it's supposed to be "can I beat you"

it's annoying when you sometimes only get boost cards, it's even more annoying you died because you only had boost cards
This game is so good! Wish there were more floors tho ;-;
Facts
Finally~
^.^
This game is extremely fun and addicting keep you the good work!
This game is really nice and also really good for killing time, Very
cool
Short Version: [The FREE to Play Game was Super Hard & Fun but the Frog Boss was Super Normal]
i agree with you. Today i beat the other frog , i wonder what the unkown dice is. do you kown that?
It's Terrain/Growth Dice
Thank you
The dice on the title screen look very similar to the d6 from Binding of Isaac Rebirth.
fun and simple
incredibly fun!!
very easy to learn!
This looks really sick
The new UI looks great compared to the old one, but I wish you would have kept the dice-shaped boxes in most places, they looked really nice.
I just died at floor 25, and it told me I unlocked something, but nothing has changed other than the energy counter being at the top of the grid.
can anyone help me on what are some good strategies? i always get F and never been to 20+
when pattern, i try to use pattern. i tried more tactics of what to upgrade first.
what is "the best dice bag" ?

I would love a boardgame version of this

esse jogo e muito bom nmrl
This game is SO good!!!!!
I don't understand how you're supposed to avoid enraging the boss
Hey there, I am sorry to hear that, perhaps you miss the boss mechanic? It involves placing those honey dice correctly, once you understand it, it gets much easier!
Even with this, you need a really solid deck. The boss can wipe you out in one hit (20-30 damage depending on enraged or not).
It’s a tough game for sure, I think I beat the 20F boss after around ten tries.
This is a mix of Dicey Dungeons and Slay the Spire, which are some of my favorite games, and I am amazed it's free

what does the thingy after reaching the frog for the first time mean?
You mean the text that pops up? It means you have unlocked new content ^^

I have not! Will look more into that, thank you!

That might not be a bug, it might encourage you to play to expect that - keeping dice off their max level. Personally I like it
