Würfelspiel is an arena fighter based on an old German dice game. Roll dice and randomly generate aspects of your music to create your own unique attack combination to face a variety of unique enemies! Usually these enemies are docile... what's making them act this way?

Listen to the soundtrack on Youtube!

The game seems to lag when played in fullscreen. Also extremely sorry about a few of the UI bugs.


In the 18th century, a Musikalisches Würfelspiel (musical dice game) was used to randomly generate scores, selecting from precomposed segments. Used by Mozart and other legendary composers, the dice game could lead to over 750 trillion unique pieces of music.

This game was made in 48 hours for the 2022 GMTK Game Jam under the theme of "ROLL OF THE DICE"

LOVE the musac

This was amazing. What a great full game! Super polished and great fun. Excellent work everyone!

Really fun, nice enemy and weapon variety!

Super fun game! Love the visuals, the music for Mega Mozart was oddly calming but I think that added to it

Very fun game! I defeated Mega Mozart! I love the idea of turning musical notes and other symbols into characters and weapons, that's so unique! Great art and storytelling as well, I really did enjoy it and can't wait to see more!
