can i date the alleyman instead?
"I'd dice with death If death had dice"
This isn’t a visual novel, it’s a dating sim and the only romance option is “hot cryptic man with dice.” 10/10 would gamble my lifespan again just to see him talk fancy

Juego cortito, hecho para una game jam (y consecuentemente gratis). La trama consiste en que te queda poco tiempo de vida, de forma que vas junto al Alleyman, a apostar por un poco más de tiempo de vida: si ganas, se te concede, pero si pierdes, has de pagar el precio. Honestamente, iría a apostar con este hombre sólo para escuchar sus frases fancy. Tal vez fue un poquito fácil de más conseguir todo, pero para una game jam lo mejor es que sea así, y que todo el mundo pueda disfrutar de los finales. La verdadera conclusión del juego [spoiler](el último logro)[/spoiler] es dura e inesperada, pero creo que le ha dado un trazo especial y retorcido a la historia. No soy una gambling addict como el Gabri pero lo recomiendo mucho.
This is a very short experience, but I still enjoyed every minute of it. If anything, it left me wanting more-- wondering what lore is hiding behind the alleyman and how I can spent more time in his company simply rolling and passing dice back and forth. There are four different achievements, meaning four different endings. And to be honest, the most difficult one for me to achieve was the one in which I lost. Which was strangely endearing, because the little quips from the Alleyman made it seem like he was rooting for me and encouraging me to give rolling the die a try-- often just passing the die back to me without rolling himself. Which, again, was funny, because I struggled to keep up with him the very first round I played. Overall, it's a short little game for free, so you can't go wrong with it. And I ended up adoring the Alleyman and am almost a little sad that there won't be more content of him for me to indulge in. Do recommend.
Interesting game to be made in under 10 days but it's very repetitive and the 24 minutes to get 100% just felt like time wasting then anything else.
I liked this game! It was short and fun, easy to follow and very cool to look at!!! I loved the alleyman's design and his way of speaking was neat. I really wanna draw him now... but anyway fantastic atmosphere and I liked the different responses the alleyman could give when either player passes. A very self contained game and yet very eye catching and fun :D
I really liked the art and the atmosphere. The gameplay is catchy and really fun 10/10 <3
A neat experience in such a small amount of time. I think the idea is nice kind of strange that does all it needs to in the time it had. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to perfect the game with bad luck, which might happen since it's pure RNG. The dice game itself is pretty cool, but I think getting to 100 points is a little too long for what story is told in-between. The endings are pretty straightforward, so it should be easy to achieve them by yourself, The theme of the game is appealing and so is the Alleyman's design, so give it a shot if you got some time for a side quest.
好好好,运气超差的说话押韵的玩不过就溜的覆面系帅哥(? 好玩爱玩多来
