Insane visuals! Great feel. Very good game

Developer

Thanks so much!

It's really pretty polished. Art, SE and music are best in jam games.

Only big problem is... This mechanic does not seem to be related to the dice. You can replace the dice with ANY other things, and it also works :(

So although it's a good game, but it doesn't fit the theme I think.

Developer

As it says on my game page: 'By rolling a dice you are able to do an unexpected (just like rolling a dice) changes to the level and character movement (moving platforms, stopping time, Changing gravity, Changing player speed... I tried making it more random but I ran out of time.'

Thanks for review!

Damn, the environment it really spooky , and love your take on the theme, controls are a bit tricky , I think the character accelerates way to fast but overall its a blast. I would really love to discuss how you achieve such beautiful level design and you can give me some tips too , let's hit up on discord whaddya say ? my discord handle alkatraz1299#6248

also I found this little bug where I went out of bounds 

Developer

Yeah  I know about it. I tried to fix it but I was running out of time. I was scared I could break sth.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Nice LIMBO-like graphics! The main mechanic is simple, but I can see it being explored in fun ways

Developer

Well at the end I just runned out of ideas for levels so I just stopped haha. Thanks for cool review!

I like the painting style of the game very much. The creativity is good, and the switching is also very random, but sometimes I can't find the pull rod and button. I hope to see more ideas in the subsequent development

I love your game's aesthetic! Thanks for opinion. I did the levels dark ok purpose because flicking  a lever in a level was too easy. I though that jumping around a little bit will help notice the giant [E] appear ;)

Submitted

I realy like the game. especially the art. but one problem is the performance  its like playing on 30 fps honestly. but overall a realy good game

Developer

It probably depends on your computer performance. On my itch.io page in installation instructions there are minimum requirements. Check if your computer matches them. Thank you for the opinion!

Submitted

Its a nice set of puzzles with simple graphics but effective graphics, this could easily stand on its own as a short game. Would love to see more stuff from the dev!

Developer

Thank you so much!

Submitted

Cool game, would be cool if it was a little brighter or the levels are a little bit easier to find, since alot of the time I just missed them

Developer

Thanks for your opinion it means a lot to me :D
I wanted to make the levers harder to notice in the dark for player to find it.

Submitted

Georgeous graphics and the gameplay is simple yet fun!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Absolutely fantastic looking and feeling game <3
One of my definite favourites thus far.

Thank you so much!

Submitted

Game looks absolutely stunning! But as others pointed out it doesn't really fit the theme. And platforming is a bit wonky. But overall: great job!

Submitted(+1)

Really great platformer... but the dice theme feels shoehorned in a little... it could never actully work if the mechanics were random...

and like someone said below I CAN'T believe that it was made in 2 days.

Developer

That's what I tried to do but I ran out of time :/. Thanks for your opinion!

Submitted

Really great game! can't believe it was made in 2 days.
