3rd pvp round is 852 and seems quite difficult

Seems to be a fair bit of luck as to whether the boss attacks the same number twice in a row, or maybe it's based on who attacked most recently?

Honestly the feedback loop of "do math to roll more" would make this an excellent game for kids IMO

This is really clever and one of those projects that strikes the delicate balance of “I could’ve done this” and “actually no.” When I look more closely, the details (which I wouldn’t have nailed) sell it. The slow down as it lands on a number, the way it displays, etc.

It really does distill the whole experience down. It’s so reductive yet somehow it makes me want to keep playing. Honestly the more I think about it the more impressive it is.

I cannot believe how much time I spent playing this. In fact, I am still playing this! You have done such an amazing job with such a simple idea.

If I can, my only feedback is that the battle system is REALLY hard for me. If there were keyboard shortcuts to block I wouldn't complain, but having to mouse to block is too much. I ended optimizing by letting one on the left or right die and then praying I could block enough to kill the boss.

Really great work! Seriously love this stuff!

Same. I think it's probably easier on a touch screen than with mouse, but I'm stuck on level 10 for now. Maybe it's intentionally frustrating. Need to finish this level to unlock the last number I think, but I guess I've I've sunk enough time into it and will let it rest there.
