One of ascii's limitations is that is is very hard to show movment
because line weight at smaller scales is not controlable.
If you were to redoo this drawing with an alpha-numaric style and then
use the punctuation marks to show movement it might work but I think
your dice would have to be at least 50% larger to get the effect
right.
