Love the visuals! gameplay is also really polished. Great game overall! A tutorial / how to play in-game would've been nice though
Noted, thanks for playing!!
Fun little puzzler with awesome presentation :) (I enjoyed the level titles especially!)
Thank you for playing, the level titles were one of my favourite parts of development. Funny story, I through a few titles that I liked in the code, then I meant to come back and put in my best puns, but never got around to it. Such is Game Jams. More titles for when I expand the game!
It's a simple concept but that's executed so well! The game got some really clever puzzles that forces you to really think but never feels unfair!
Also love the Stevens Sausage Roll's looking hands on the character hahah!
Awesome Work! :D
Thank you for playing! I hadn't heard of Steven's Sausage Roll, I might pick it up next time I'm looking for a new puzzle game!
Aah but yeah it's good! Actually learnt about it from one of GMTK's videos hahah!
Fantastic graphics and really challenging puzzles with lots of aha moments. Also like how numbers are just increasing, once you understand that it’s easy to predict outcomes. Is level 5 winnable though?
Thank you for playing! Level 5 is beatable, if you'd like some hints (or the full solution) I added a guide to the game's page in the Development Log section (right above Comments).
Great puzzles and mechanics. It was fun and challenging. Definitely, one of the best games i played so far today :) Great work!
Thankyou! :)
This game has probably the best puzzle design I've ever seen and even though the graphics are very simplistic, they fit the game and remind me of the baba is you art style. There really isn't much to improve on this game besides maybe more content and an undo button, but I see that a lot of people have already suggested that. Overall, great game! -Sincerely, Henry_Hamster
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words and feedback! I am planning to make more content and an extended version of the game, I have a lot of fun ideas for new mechanics and levels! If your interested in being notified of a new release give me a follow :)
Edit: missed the word follow when I first typed the comment.
:)
lol meant to say follow, idk how I missed the word haha.
Managed to get to level 5 so I'm feel quite proud of myself. The difficulty curve was definitely higher than expected. I wished there was an undo button but I know how hard that can be to implement. Overall, a unique take on the "roll dice around to match the side" idea
I was scrambling to implement undo, but wasn't able to get it working bug-free in time! Thankyou for playing and giving feedback, level 5 is the toughest imo!
Fun little brain teaser of a game! Take no pride in admitting Level 2 had me stumped but I managed Level 4 instead so I still have some pride left.
Haha glad it didn't take all your pride! The difficulty curve may have been a bit steep! Thanks for playing :)
I love this game ! One of the best I have seen so far !
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
Great game.

Thanks!
One of my favs so far. baba is dice?!
Haha yes thought the same thing XD
Haha! Thank you, happy to hear you enjoyed the game!
Nice! The puzzles are the right difficulty, the graphics are great and the general vibe is good. Well done!
Thank you for playing!
Was a very enjoyable brain teaser, really got stuck for a long time at level 5, but it was rewarding once I have solved it.
Glad you got that rewarding feeling! Thank you for playing!
Much prefer the simple incrementing to the "realistic" geometry that other games do for the rolling die. Some clever parity ideas with even/odd numbers arise as well. Another +1 for the aesthetics, love the slightly moving, sketch-like lines. Good job!
The realistic dice puzzles have proven to be very confusing for me! Only working in 2D, the simple incrementing seemed like a natural choice for my game. The relation between position and even/odd was definitely something I hadn't considered when conceptualizing the game in my head, but turned out to be core to the games mechanics! Thank you for playing!
Loved it, the idea was good, and the execution was good, and the presentation was what it needs to be: simple, clear and understandable, and the cherry on top the puzzles are exactly what I would expect from a professional game
I'm blushing! Thanks for playing!
Each time I thought I understood the mechanics, it turned out I didn't, which also makes it hard for me to comment on them. But the presentation was very neat!
Thanks for giving it a go! I would've liked to introduce the mechanics a bit slower, but such is Game Jams. If you are interested I have posted a guide with hints and solutions to my game's page!
This was fun! Even though I got stuck in the 2nd level and had to get help haha. The graphics remind me of Baba is You, which is quite nice since I love that game's artstyle. Overall it was a nice experience, I just wish it was easier.
I'm def a fan of Baba is You, if I expand Diced and Confused I'd like to make its' art style a bit more unique! If your interested I have posted a guide with hints and solutions to my games page! Thanks for playing!
Absolutely love the art style! Great one!
Thank you!! Check out Baba is You for a similar art style if you haven't already!
I love this style! Also glad the see the numbers go up in a way that makes sense for games like these.
Glad you liked it, thanks for playing!
Some good puzzle design here! I tried my best but some of them are above my skill level lol.
Thanks for playing, I have posted a guide with hints and solutions to the game page if you are interested! It is def hard to make gauge puzzle difficulty before release!
