I have cried blood, sweat and tears until I finally managed to appear on the leaderboard. I'm in 15th position, so I'll probably only be there for a short time, but I'm satisfied. The game is a lot of fun and manages to sting you fast. The physics feel great, and the aesthetics are simple but enough for what the game asks for, very good!
Thanks a lot :D! The leaderboard turned out very competitive, congrats on getting up there! I wish I had made it scrollable, haha.
Great Game! Your physics were outstanding! Beautifully Done!
very addictive, i like the scoreboard!
very cool game, i had fun playing it
my only concern is that i don't see how it fits the theme
good job!
Hi, glad you liked it :)! About the theme interpretation, each run is literally a roll of a dice, in which you're trying to shake the d20 as hard as possible for good luck! This is explained in the lore before playing as well as when your run ends (you should hear the dice rolling and it tells you at the top what you rolled!). Hope that clarifies it, but feel free to ask further if it's still unclear.
This was hard to learn, but fun to play, and there was some dots that I wasn't able to touch for some reason. I usually assume these errors are on my end tho. Great concept and use of the theme!!!
Thanks :)! I don't know of any bug with the dots, but sorry about that – perhaps they're just hard to hit sometimes. Glad you had fun, cheers!
I liked the simplicity of this one, though I would have liked a little more intro on learning how to play. But once I got it, I just kept flickin'
Super addictive. The little text that pops up was a really nice touch that can help you get better at the game by letting you know what is and what isn't working. The leaderboard kept me playing for way longer than I thought I would.
This game was insane to play, the leaderboard makes the game so addictive :o
Great game, thanks for submitting it. GGs!
You deserved 15/15 :)
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! <3
The texts add so much personality! Love it, although I had hard time knowing where should the die be to score highest. I got 11th place at a time (77C) so that counts :D
Nice idea. Wound me up a LOT !
Like the high score tables. That kept me plugging away for a bit... Until I realised I was rubbish and had to stop.
Great job!
This game was actually really fun despite the simplicity! I like how you focused on overall gameplay rather than a huge game with tons of features... Great game!
Such a simple idea but yet really fun and effective. Good job with the juicing! It felt really satisfying!!
Surprisingly strategic! I also like the text which tells you how well you did on the flick, it adds a lot of good juice/feedback.
Lore behind the design of the game is always fun! Simple gameplay loop but I found it pretty hard to manage for longer than a few seconds, as the controls required so much of me in a short time if my shots weren't aimed perfectly. Leaderboard is really neat! Well done!
Glad you liked the lore, thanks :)! Sorry to hear it was too difficult for you.
Nice job integrating a leader board. It played well, and with some more polish could be a really good time waster!
Thank you! What kind of polish do you have in my mind, what should I focus on next time :)?
My metric is usually is usually if I can recognize the defaults of the engine, like text boxes and stuff like that. The look of a game can be so good but I can be taken out of it by standard UI elements sticking out from the rest of the style for instance. I like the individual looks of the d20 and the background, but they feel like they are from two different games. You have the simple shapes for the background elements, that look great, and then thin lines of the D20 and arrow which look out of place. Its mainly just small nit picky things like that, but overall I still really liked it, and the gameplay loop is quite solid.
Thanks a lot!
Cool idea! But at times it didn't count my clicks and I lost it(
Thanks! Sorry about that, I probably should have made the hitboxes bigger.
simple but addicting!
Strangely addictive, had to force myself to click away!
Your game is really addictive. I felt like the flick pads were a bit unresponsive which made me miss them every now and then. You could maby make a more noticable effect when the mouse is hovering over them, but other than that, great game!
Cheers! You definitely have a point, thanks for the feedback :)!
Very fun game, the leaderboard is a nice touch, the only issue I saw was typing a long name in the browser build.
Thank you :)!
