I love PICO-8 games! Dicezilla has been quite entertaining for me. On the second try I managed to win the match, as soon as I learned the cards and understood the strategies to follow. I think the Game Design is very polished. Visually I don't have a single objection. Wonderful. Good job!

Really cool game, it felt polished and the gameplay was fun!  Nice pixel art too!  

Submitted

Very nice and creative game! Was really fun to play, amazing art, very polished, nice effects and cool gameplay! Good job!

Submitted

Absolutely cracking polish and visuals, this feels really nice to play. I'd have loved a bit of music but that's the only thing I could really say other than it's amazing! Great effort.

Submitted

Cool concept, would have benefited GREATLY from some SICK 8 bit bangers bruh. But it was still drip. Poggers.

Submitted

Neat little game. Especially cool as it was done in Pico8!

I quite like how much UI you got into such a tiny space while also having a visual representation of Godzilla running around destroying Tokyo!

I like the various cards you came up with.

Given it's a 48h jam, I understand it's quite hard to balance so many variables. I would have like a bit more pressure, especially around dice resource management.

All in all, cool game!

Submitted

Cool game, love the visuals! The concept is simple but effective, very well done! Sfx and sound could be fleshed out a bit more, but for a one-man team this is amazing!

Submitted

Nice game, esthetics on point. The gameplay is quite simple but effective, well done !

Submitted

TBH it's puzzling at first but fortunately it's not hard to learn the basics.

That being said, it was fun. I got good cards and good strategy so it wasn't a hard thing to defeat the zilla :)

Submitted

Great game! Godzilla is agood idea, I enjoy this game, Impressive game in such a short time. Great job!

Feel free to check my game if you want to challange your brain muscle!

I love the art! Dicezilla is great, and the cards are all immediately distinct at a glance so I quickly became comfortable assessing my hand and working out a plan for the turn.

Speaking of the cards - I thought that the effects were nicely varied and encouraged mixing up gameplay turn by turn. I really liked the card that would also damage you for the value of a die, as I thought it was a great idea to have an incentive to keep lower value dice around even as I progressed and evolved.

Was nice that it basically had new game + built in! Felt great to restart the battle with my new and improved die ready to go :)

Submitted

I really enjoyed this game! It's simple, very intuitive, has nice variety for such small and tiny game, and overall just very cool and unique experience.

Thank you for making this game and good job on releasing it! :)

Submitted

like the aesthetic

Submitted

Had fun giving this one a go, Dicezilla's attack sound effect absolutely wrecked my ears tho the first time, didn't realise I had my volume on max haha

Developer

Happened to me during development more time than you can think of :(

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Very creative, I loved it!
It has all that you can ask for: dice, cards, cards that use dice, special effects, and Godzilla.

It's easy to understand, and fun to play.

Visually, it's looking great, it really has a retro vibe.

Excellent submission! =D

Thank you a lot!

Cool game! It was quite hard to understand the interface at first, but when I did, I had some fun experience!

Developer(+1)

Thank for your feedback : next time I will make a in game tutorial for sure!

Submitted

Fun game, can't believe it was done in PICO-8!

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

This is a really cool game, great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

I struggled a bit understanding the different effects the cards had and how the dice were used. Am I supposed to be able to use the same dice twice in one turn because I think I was able to :) Neat use of PICO-8 for sure 

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Several people struggle to understand all the UI directly and the little tutorial/instruction on the page didn't help.Next time I will do an in game tutorial for sure!

The effect of each card appear on top of the screen when you hover the card. Each [  ] on the instruction are a receptacle for a dice.

You cannot play the dice twice a turn, when you play a dice it disappear. So each turn you have 4 dice to spend on any card you want.

What I meant was that the game allowed me to use the same die on a single turn for an effect that required two dice. I read the descriptions but it was challenging to understand their impact to startegize better  :)

Very interesting take on the theme! Well done, had a lot of fun!

Developer

Thank you!
