Awesome concept ! Its a genius idea and the art is really great also. The only minus is the keys bindings and the way you aim for dice creation, maybe use mouse point&click instead ?

I really liked this game!!! I like how you incorporated dice into a platformer. The art was also really nice :)

Really nice puzzler.

Simple mechanics, but good puzzsle design and its great how you needed to start thinking different ways to use dices. Like others, controls could be bit hard and for some reason I kept pushing r instead of e and it resetting everything got some frustration from me. But it kept me thinking and was one of few games I started again to speedrun it.

Great job! :)

This concept makes for a great puzzle game. As someone else mentioned, I think the controls are a tad clunky. I found myself wanting to use f to throw the dice as well as pick it up, and trying to use the arrow keys to increase the value of the dice platform, though that might not be the best control scheme either. Still, it was really fun and I had a couple of great "aha!" moments, which is exactly what you want from a game like this!

Really fun game! The window was a bit too small for me though .-.

This is great! You sold me when I figured out how to get the first key. It took me a while to remember I could pick up dice constructs as well, but overall it was very clear and fun.

Hello! You have no idea how happy it makes me to know you enjoyed my game :) I agree with you and think the controls were a tad hard to remember. Thank you so much though for playing and commenting! :D
