Originally made in 50 hours for the GMTK Game Jam 2022, where the theme was "Roll of the Dice".
All levels are available now, including main levels 1-6 and tutorial levels 1-6!
(See if you can find the secret level!)
See the controls below if you are playing in the web browser on a computer.
How to Play
Your goal is to unite the two dice in love back together. To do this, they have to be adjacent to each other and add up to 7. The dice can push each other. Each time one moves (unless it pushes another), its number goes up or turns to 1 if it was 6. The tiles with numbers only allow a die to pass if it shows that number. The spikes toggle every time a die moves, but not when you swap players. Conveyor tiles move dice in their direction.

A very original idea, the puzzle is very well done!
Excellent work. The way you push GBS to its limits and make a really smooth and playable experience is nothing short of astounding.
The graphics in this game are so good! I didn’t know you had such visual talent
