I was not expecting to feel something playing these games but damn nvm

This game looks beautiful and is a really interesting take on the theme. It lives up to the name sake as the tasks become more and more difficult.

Submitted

This was a beautiful experience. So much story told through excellent game mechanics. Everything was amazing. Great job!

DAAAAAAAAANG this looks good!

DAAAAAAAAANG this looks good!

Great atmosphere

Interesting idea! The dice spawn fast enough that you barely need the modifiers, but it felt like a fun challenge keeping the engine up to speed.

Submitted

Great take on the theme. Nice concise plot. Good difficulty curve :)

Submitted

This was really fun! Gameplay's hard, original and addicting!

Submitted

the Atmosphere was really great, the presentation complimented it perfectly, the idea was great
overall 5/5 in every category brilliant

Submitted

Atmosphere was awesome! The train slowing down when you don't in fuel was also a really cool detail.

Submitted

Extremely well done. Great atmosphere and a fun, hectic puzzle to keep everything running smoothly. I think the ending could've been a bit more rewarding, but the gameplay itself was reward enough!

Submitted

I just end up wanting to fail because of that great lighting xD

The best game yet. I've got nothing to say. I'm speechless because of the quality.

Submitted

I like it. This game has great atmosphere and calming gameplay

Submitted

I really like the concept. Aside from some of the text, the game looks really good too. Really good atmosphere.

The game could really do with some more variety or harder difficultly. It gets pretty repetitive very quickly. Perhaps this is due to the jam time constraints?

Submitted

Really great looking game , could be cool to see some sort of harsher consequence for using the wrong dice consequence in order to increase the difficulty a little bit

Submitted

This game was really cool, but it didn't feel like there was any real challenge and so it got pretty monotonous just dragging dice. I really loved the visual style though, it looks so clean

Submitted

The grapich is fantastic, the soundtrack was a really good choose. it is stressfull and calm, both in the same time.

Submitted

The dice are not a crucial part of the game IMO. You can replace dice with something else and the game will not change
