[p]I’m developing Star Dice – a weird little roguelike where you roll dice like a slot machine 🎰🎲[/p][p]
Each spin gives you 9 dice in a 3x3 grid. Match patterns to score, then customize dice faces and unlock relics to create broken combos.[/p][p]Core features:[/p][p]* Slot machine + Dice fusion mechanics[/p][p]* Dice face modification system[/p][p]* 100+ relics to build insane synergies[/p][p]* Branching paths and score-based progression[/p][p]Would love feedback or ideas – what kind of relic/dice mechanics would YOU try in a system like this?[/p][p][/p]
