I really liked the presentation and the clever take on Sokoban. I struggled a lot though cause I am no good at Sokoban!

Sokoban hard mode :D Too tough for me 😅

Developer

ohh that’s what it’s called, I’ll have to stop calling it a top-down-box-pusher lol thanks for playing!

Really nice game even if I was too stupid for a couple of the levels. ;) A little bit different than a lot of the other dice puzzles I've seen and I love it for that. Great work with this!

Developer

Haha they're tough levels, it was fun to watch you play them. Thanks!! :)

This was a fun puzzle game that made great use of the Roll of the Dice theme.  The music and art are so nice - I like just moving the character and hearing the sounds.  I got stuck on level 5 - it's a doozy!   I think this would be a nice phone app that players can come back to after some time has passed if they are stuck- so when they come back with fresh eyes it would feel that much better that they were finally able to pass that level!

Thankyou! I am continuing development and have been toying with the idea of making an app version. I have never developed for mobile so I am unsure how hard it would be and also if it would be hard to develop for mobile and PC at the same time. 5 is the trikiest imo, thanks for playing!

Well implemented, though the difficulty spikes very quickly. I would have loved an undo button, I had to redo level 3 so many times despite knowing the solution because I kept pushing 1 block too far haha. I've seen the same mechanics a few times here unfortunately, but you did it well. Good job :)

Developer(+1)

Thankyou for playing, steep difficulty curves are my arch nemeses and less time to make more levels definitely contributed lol. Undo button coming in a future release!

Submitted(+1)

This is a very neat puzzle game, I love the minimalistic graphics! only complaint is that there's a fairly big difficulty spike between level 3 and 4.

Developer(+1)

Definitely noted, planning to make more levels between 3 and 4! Thanks for playing and giving feedback!

I enjoyed the level design a lot. Reminded me a bit of Baba is you

Developer

Thank you!!!

One of my favorite games in the jam, great work! Adding undo would be nice if you decide to update it post-jam : )

Developer

Definitely on the to-do list, I was scrambling to get it implemented but couldn't finish it in time!

Straightforward and fun! The puzzles are enjoyably challenging and the visuals are excellent

Developer

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment!

Good stuff! finished it. I'm surprised someone actually found a solid puzzle game idea for this theme. Presentation is nice too, getting some Baba is You vibes with these wobbly lines. :)

Developer

Thank you for playing !! : - )

Easily in the top 20! One of the smartest games I've seen in this jam! My humble congratulations for capturing the essence of the theme this much. Every level was handcrafted with extreme accuracy. You really got an eye for puzzle levels, and for what Mark usually says: the a-ha! moment! Bravo! Full marks on this!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! The "aha" moment is what I was chasing!

Submitted(+1)

This game looks and feels good to play. Really reminds me of Baba Is You. Some of the puzzles were not very intuitive though, or relied on trial-and-error. I would have liked to be able to reset a puzzle from within the level rather than having to exit out and go back in. This is a strong start for a puzzle game though and could be something really special, solid premise and great start. 

Developer

Thanks for playing! You can use "R" to reset a puzzle at any time! I definitely plan to flesh it out into a larger game! I use too many exclamation points! :)

The presentation and puzzles are really good and I found the hints really helpful. Awesome game!

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad to hear the guide is being used and was worth making! :)

Submitted(+1)

Super clever puzzles out of very simple mechanics. The puzzles were tough, and I admit, I used the hints, which were very nice of you to include. But even after receiving a hint or peeking at the solution (level 5), I still felt like the puzzles were fair. Really well designed!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad to hear your getting use out of the guide, I wasn't sure if anyone was noticing it!
