Roll 'n' Die

A physics-based shooter which was produced within 48 hours for the GMTK 2022 game jam. Roll around as a d6, with mouse-controlled movement, blasting through casino cards and chips. The player is armed to the teeth and must roll themselves to determine which weapon is activated. Each face on the player's dice corresponds to a powerful weapon which will send you flying backwards. 

Theme

Mango Mob decided early on to model the player as a d6 and had multiple iterations, such as changing the camera and game setting. We originally had an orthographic toybox idea which changed due to internal feedback.
