The overall aesthetic is great: the colors, the music, the sound when you hit the cube and the way you zoom past the little story intro - well done! :) It took me a moment to realize that I had to press Space (not W) to move forward though. Also I really expected that the poker chips would hurt me, probably because they were red.  You should really think about turning this into a VR game, haha!

Saw your game when Mark played it on stream! Super creative!

The intro transitioning into the gameplay is the highlight for me.

I like WillowXs' idea of adding even more surreal stuff if you were to expand on the game.

Developer

Thanks! I was happy he played it, too :) Glad you enjoyed it!

The shattered glass sound is great. The controls are a bit weird at least to me. I found it easier to just wait for the perfect moment to go in on the die instead of trying to rotate it - but maybe thats the intended way. I like the idea of it being a mental fight - it could even be enhanced with more surreal stuff.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! And you're right: maybe some stuff on the background could give a greater impact on the battle! I don't know what I could put there (and I'm not a very skilled artist) but I think it's at least worth a try

That moment where you touch the die for the first time, not knowing what's coming? Absolutely killer. Really nice work!

Developer

Interesting concept! For real!

Maybe it's voluntary, but the red screen hurts for real on all this black before. Except that, I enjoyed the experience (so I guess, falling for your addiction is not enjoyable in the end :p).

Developer

Sorry for the red screen! I'll tone it down a little bit when I have the chance. And good to see you liked it! (it really is not enjoyable 0.0)
