Very creative idea. Right now I wish for a mouse, had to play it on a trackpad. Would be interesting to try this as a twin stick shooter, the left stick would give you more directions than WASD. Maybe even a way to upgrade without interuption of the gameplay? Cool idea, solid execution, I had fun: Great job.

Thanks, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed playing it and sorry for the difficulties with controls cause by needing mouse. I went with stopping the game for upgrades because I originally intended to have upgrades for the dice when you level up allowing you to change numbers on faces or add effects like explosions when you roll 6. Thanks for the feedback though and definitely something worth considering in the future.
I like the wave based gameplay felt really hectic but satisfying when I could line them all up for a big smack. arts pretty nice too.

Oliver the Dice MasterThis game is aesthetically and mechanically so much fun! Really awesome for a jam game. I would have liked the gameplay to be a little bit faster paced, but that's more of a personal preference. Really awesome game.

Dice Goblin 1000Cool game! I like the art style. I couldn't always figure out why my dice wouldn't hit certain shapes. Is it based on their shape or do you have to hit them with the corner of the dice?

Die Fiend!Thanks for playing. Your dice more than likely where hitting the enemies but they just don't do enough damage in one hit. The dice do damage equal to the dace they had when you picked them up or whatever they stop on when they are lying on the ground. And the 10 sided dice enemies have 6 health and the 8 sided have 3 health initially. So you need to roll high to kill them with one hit. There health increases over time so after 60 seconds there health will have doubles making them much harder to kill. It's a bit rough but I figured most people would probably only play for like 5 - 10 minutes so I didn't want it to scale too slowly.
Good game, very challenging. Might need some impact whenever you hit the enemies. Good job :)

Knight n' DiceVery good. I didn't really understand how much enemies would damage me, and would like a short dash. But, it looks very nice and does play well--especially for someone who typically doesn't play this style of game.

Where is the Witch?The visual design is great. The scribble look blends well with the more realistic 3D dice. However the game feels a bit slow.
