Great game. It took me a while to figure out that I'm supposed to choose one of the upgrades though.

This is a pretty fun top down shooter. The dice are an interesting risk/reward system where you can choose to get upgrades or take more hits. The boss offered a unique challenge although it does feel a bit too hard due to it taking up so much of the screen, but it isn't that much of a problem.

I appreciate the feedback <3 Thank you for playing my game!

Thematically on point! I like the "Roll the Dice" just mixing just about everything that comes to mind with the prompt. It took me a bit to grasp that "rolling more dice is better than less dice", for a bit there I figured it was better to roll individual dice and trickle in bonuses.

Developer

Thank you! It was admittedly a struggle working on the ui; it's not something my team has a lot of experience with.

idk if this was on purpose but the game gives off very uneasy vibes the art mixed with the noises use, I actually really like it, I would say put the hurt cooldown on the player not the enemies so if 3 enemies come up to you, you don't die instantly

Developer

That makes sense, thanks for the feedback! Glad you liked the game

The game was fun! It was challenging, but every fail makes me wanna try and try again! My only complaint is the health. I like that you have to sacrifice your lives to get more upgrades, but there were times when I had 3 dice on me, and I die a single hit for some reason. It was super infuriating. But overall, It was nice!
