Created for the GMTK Game Jam 2022

Theme: Roll of the Dice

No sound effects because I didn't have time :(

Instructions: 

  • Click on the arrow keys on the side of the slot machine to activate that row of symbols.
  • Once you activate at least one row, roll the slots and generate a random spell based on the result of the symbols in the row
  • Once all your mana is used up (indicated by the blue bar), you and your opponent will trade blows.
  • Get bonus damage for rolling symbols that match the jackpot symbol on the slot machine
  • Face the unending horde of Dice Cultists and gather new symbols to help you on your way to victory!

fun concept

Interesting concept!  It would have been cool to include something like Five Card Draw poker, where you can 'lock' in symbols for a round in order to press for a stronger spell, and some meaningful interaction between the symbols (similar to Magicka, maybe) could be cool.  Plenty of design space to explore.

Thanks for the feedback! I definitely had more mechanics in mind in the original scope, the goal was to include synergies and status effects, as well as other roguelike/deckbuilding elements. Ended up having to scrap most of my design wishlist because of how long the artwork took me, but I'm definitely planning on adding more stuff after the jam is over!
