How does your game fit the theme?
Dice Raiders roll onto the screen and when you attack them, your attack depends on the side of the die you aim for. Gameplay is a ‘roll of the dice’ because you have to knock off dice at such a fast rate that you end up having to react to your own attacks as if they were randomized.

The concept is there and the art is pretty cool too.
Glad you liked the art! Thanks for playing
The concept is fun and the hats on the dice are cool, but the movement gets so repetitive, especially since the dice barely move around after you attack them. But I appreciate all the attack animations and the idea itself is very novel!
Great feedback, thanks so much!
+1 for the Wilhelm scream. I really enjoyed the mayhem, good job!
Haha thanks!
Pretty cool! I think the camera shake was a bit too aggressive for me
Glad you liked it, and thanks for the feedback on the camera shake.
Super juicy game with a cool concept. Good Work!
Glad you liked the juice and the idea. Thanks!
amazing game and creatively incorporated theme.
Cool, great to hear you liked it!
Every attack feels *extremely* good to use, the sound effects and animations are perfectly crisp and crunchy. The most effective method for me definitely seemed to be just spamming attacks, but balancing like that is always one of the hardest things about jams and it was still extremely fun haha.
I think the movement controls felt a little floaty and weird but that might have been because I was playing the webgl version.
Overall, extremely good job, probably my favourite game of the jam so far.
Thanks for the feedback on the movement. It was a new thing for us, trying to make a character controller that could bounce around against the dice but still feel good, and I don't think we really nailed it. We definitely didn't tune the balancing quite right either, lol. Anyways, I'm glad you liked it and thanks for the compliments!
Damn, this game is really fun. Great mechanics, simple to master and the shake, sounds and particles are amazing! Overall a wonderful submission!
Very kind, thank you!
Very cool!
Thanks for playing!
Nice game!
Thanks!
a game with a lot of great things. art,music mechanics everything great, the only downside i felt was the extreme screenshake, maybe decrease it a little and also a little bit of distinction between the grab and hookshot would be cool,it gets fast paced so it helps.
The feedback about grab and hookshot is very helpful, I can definitely see how that can be frustrating. And yeah, we maybe overdid it a little with the screenshake, haha. Glad you liked it anyways!
Damn this game is really fun. I dont know what to say everything is great. the art is nice, the sound effect is really satisfying, the gameplay is just fun.
Wow, very kind of you to say. Thanks for playing!
A very unusual idea! The game is fun but becomes chaotic really fast. I felt a bit like the main mechanic doesn’t really work - it’s pretty much impossible to track which side the enemy is rotated, so I ended up just spamming left click everywhere :D This seemed way too effective, by the way, - especially series of frequent dynamites or shotguns are a guarantee that you’ll knock the enemy off the board. Anyways, a fun idea, good job!
Yeah, I think with more tuning we really could've tapped into some interesting strategy with our core mechanic, but we really just ended up with chaos. Which is fun, but not exactly what we were going for. Thanks for playing and commenting!
Really cool concept and fun gameplay. Love it!
Thanks so much!
Really cool concept and fun gameplay. Love it!
what a wonderfully weird and fun game haha! i love the simplicity of the mechanic, which is makes it easy to enjoy! well done!
So happy to hear you enjoyed the weirdness of it!
This one was really fun! Found myself playing it for a while. Love the different actions for the dice faces. Very addicting.
So happy to hear that! Thanks for playing.
The gameplay is really fun. The visuals are great as well. Although I think the screen shakes too much.
Glad you liked it, and thanks for the feedback!
This game is super fun. Fantastic use of theme. Art and animation are on point. Great job.
Thank you :) The art is a series of 2D sprites that we layered on top of each other to make it look 3D. Really cool system that produces a cool-looking effect.
Wow you fooled me. I thought it was actually 3d models. Great use of perspective.
Really cool gameplay concept! The art is also really nice. Great work!
