Super cool art style love to 2D/3D effect , Good stuff overall for a 48 hr jam !! :D

Submitted

The concentrate mechanic is really sick. Reminds me of breath of the wild! Hope you continue to flesh this game out more! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedgein <3

Really fun gameplay. At first it's kind hard to remember what number does what, but you get used to it fast especially because that's up to chance anyway. The slow mo mode when you roll the die is really nice, gives some time to evaluate difficult situations lol. Art and music are nice, maybe the game just lack a bit of juice. Other than that, great game!

Submitted

A nice game to play for 5-10 minutes. I would work on feedback and player agency when working further on the project.

Submitted

This was fun! Took me some time to figure out all the controls ... but this is really cool!
I wish there was a way to control when the dices will explode... That would have been little more engaging in my opinion.

Developer

Well there is, if you hold space while there's dice on the air and release on six the dice explode on the spot. Like you control any other dice roll

Submitted

Enjoyed this! Great little shoot-em up game! Great job!

Submitted

Pretty addictive. It took me a while to stop playing. :D Nice design, decent sounds, chargers are annoying!! :D

Submitted

Very cool concept. Having to pick the dice up made surviving tricky and the different abilities were fun!

Submitted

Cool! This is a lot of fun and I like the bullet time mechanic, so it's not too overwhelming.

Submitted

I realy like the game and the diffeculty.

very creative. but I had one problem with the shooting, sometimes when u shoot they dont receive damage.

Developer

haven't encountered this bug, also the dice itself really doesn't do damage, it's only when it rolls a number like 2,5 or 6

Submitted

This was fun! excellent job on making the enemy movement patterns interesting to dodge

Submitted

RNG is at its best when the player has some degree of control--this is where Dice Mage really shines, in my eyes. A great concept executed well!

Submitted

Great variety of abilities with the dice. Challenging and rewarding gameplay. Wish there was a little more feedback to enemies getting hit and that a roll of 1 didn't damage you, but otherwise great job!

Submitted

Really fast paced and fun! The dice combat was really fun and was executed very well. Luck worked well here and I had a good time with the music. The only thing that I felt could've been improved was the way of teaching the player how to play, with more of an interactive tutorial and slowly teaching the player instead of throwing a mass of information in one go. Overall, solid entry!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback will definitely keep that in mind for my next games!

Submitted

This game is so frantic! I really enjoyed the variety in dice abilities, and appreciated the luck feature. The music was also really nice. Great job!

Submitted

Really love the concept and the music - honestly this is a really well executed and well presented game! Thoroughly enjoyed playing - good job!

Submitted
