The graphics options don't seem to work, and unfortunately my computer can't handle the default maximum graphics. There's this message in the top corner about something being overbudget, so... sorry, can't rate. :/

Well my playthrough ended when I think I got stuck in a pit with no way out (SPOILERS) in the space port, but it was kind of neat. The environments look great, the music matches, and it's cool watching the die roll around it. Also, kudos for controller support.

I do have to say, though, I found the platforming very difficult to where it kind of felt like Bennet Foddy's Getting Over It at times which I felt didn't mesh well with the relaxing and soothing feel of the atmosphere. I would have liked to see this lean more into the challenge, with more linear courses to guide the player, or exploration with easier platforming and some air control to correct bad trajectories.

The atmosphere of this game is great ahah, "Where is everyone?" 

It was fun just jumping around in the room alone! I have a couple of suggestions if you don't mind: make so that you can see what's your "power up" during gameplay, maybe a text beside the die in the bottom left. Also i think that speeding up the time of "cooldown" when you land, before you can jump again, will make it even more fun! Nice experience overall, I enjoyed it :D

Really cute game! I really liked moving around the level. I thought it was funny there was an employee of the month board yet a beer pong table lol.

I wish there was a guide that showed the net powerup I got from my dice face to know what move I was about to do next, but other than that, it was fun

Hello! I am glad you liked it! The user feedback is not great indeed, I should fix that in a future update. This might be a spoiler but there is another level you can access. Unfortunately there is a more ambiguous way to it and I should definitely change that. Thanks!
