Inkspinner's dice game

An action platformer roguelike arcade game, where you throw dice and avoid my magick machinations. 

Controls:

• Movement - Arrow keys / WASD
• Jump - SPACE
• Grab -  X / M / UP / W
• Dash - Z / K / F

It looks like the up and down arrow keys cause the page to scroll, so I'd recommend using WASD. I like using SPACE to jump, M to grab, and K to dash.

Features:

• Your host, yours truly :3
• Chaotic dice-chucking gameplay!
• 8 different 'boons', which add challenges to the game!
• 5 levels if difficulty (I've beat 3)
• You can change the difficulty or font  at any time from the settings menu (ESC)
• And a boss!

This is my entry for GMTK 2022, the theme  was 'Roll of the Dice', which I took very literally. I did all the programming in VSCode using the Love2D framework, made all the assets myself in ASeprite, and music/sound effects in Jummbox. 

This jam went really smoothly actually! I haven't made anything quite like this before, but it was well within my comfort zone. Definitely my favorite jam game. I was able to spend two straight days working on it, and get mostly enough sleep in between.

I submitted the game before the 48 hours, but during the grace period I added a setting to toggle the font to be more readable for accessibility's sake, along with some last minute tweaks.
