I really love this idea! It's fun to play and has a cool visual style, although the screen shake made it a little hard to see what I was doing at times

Thanks ! The screen shake problem came up a lot in the comments, we'll definitely fix it in the post jam version !

Interesting take on this genre! I think it got a bit too fast to react to a bit too quickly

I enjoyed it, but there is way too much screenshake.

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it and we heard about the screenshakes being too big, that's gonna be fixed in the post-jam version !

This game is pretty incredible! The mechanics remind me of Puyo Puyo or that one Mario Party minigame moreso than Tetris. Comboing with the dice feels very satisfying - I managed to get the best combo mentioned on the side after trying for a few rounds!

Suggestions I have (because I really, really want to keep playing this game!):

  • The dice should spawn in the center at all times. Having it appear on random columns caused unexpected game-overs.
  • The dice should have some forgiveness for sliding off placed dice, like in Tetris or Puyo Puyo.
  • The re-roll should be a bit faster or instant.
  • Getting a certain score could add 'bonus spins' to use whenever the player likes, to encourage long-term planning of massive combos.
  • Add a gamemode where the field is bigger! The existing playfield is quite small for wanting to pull off big combos.

This is my favourite game I've reviewed so far. Absolutely amazing job on the gameplay & graphics. I'd regularly play this aftera few improvements!

Really enjoyed this game!! The re-roll concept was fun. As the pace increases, it's hard to react quickly enough to the die changing - this heightens the franticness as you realize "Oh no, this is it!" And I kept wanting to re-play and improve my score. Well done! Also the art is super cute :)

Exactly the feeling we wanted to give haha! Thanks for the feedback ! Glad you like it !

I'm really into Tetris and I'm really into this game. I've been playing it for literally 45 minutes to try and get a max straight combo to no avail. The game is very enjoyable to play, the only thing I would say is that the screen shake is a bit much that can make it a little hard to concentrate especially when the dice are near the top of the board. Overall a very creative game, great job!

A quick drop would have made this so much more enjoyable for sure. That qualm aside, I really love this as a concept and it's very satisfying to setup a variety of combos. Genius idea and great game feel on this one!

Loved the music, jammed out the whole time i was playing. Nice game, got quite challenging with the speedup. It was fun to try and get the higher point combinations.
