Monkey Dice
Monkey See Dice. Monkey Roll Dice.
Successful monkeys know 10 things.
1. Watch the faces of the current dice to know what you're rolling.
2. Add the current dice to the board by clicking ROLL. Be careful, consecutive rolls of the same dice cost extra.
3. Replace the current dice by clicking SWEEP, which only costs 2.
4. Gain bananas by landing dice on banana faces.
5. Gain extra bananas by clicking on connected colors. This will absorb the color and also reroll the dice.
6. Monkeys start to die when they have less than 2 bananas.
7. Click the arrows to select lines. You can then reroll them (costs 5) or remove them for free.
8. Roll a full line of matching glyphs (color doesn't matter) to complete the objectives.
Submit them the same way you remove lines. Submissions give 10 bananas.
9. Save up bananas before trying to roll for glyphs. Once you have enough, find a dice that has good odds of getting the glyph you want, and fill a whole row with it!
10. Keep in mind the 6 different actions you can take:
Roll current, Sweep current, Reroll connected colors, Reroll line, Remove line, Submit line
Have fun!
This game was written in under 48 hours for the GMTK Jam 2022. The source code can be found on my GitHub! No game engine was used. This was made from scratch using a lot of homegrown JavaScript. It was designed to be playable on mobile, but I've heard that it's not currently working on iPhones (but seems to work fine on Android devices and iPads). Thanks for playing!

Very impressive, I enjoyed the game a lot and it feels like complete with many mechanics, would never have been able to guess it was made in 48 hours
Thanks! Yeah, I feel like it's one of my more "completed" jam games.
