Very creative game. It could be released as just a standalone game and I don’t think I would know it was made in a game jam. The combat is fun, the movement is fun, defeating enemies is fun. Overall one of the best games I’ve played in this jam.
Great music, overall feels polished as all heck. I enjoyed the small touches such as the health of the player being the dice number you are. If I were to make one small change, and this is honestly just a personal thing, I'd let upgrades stack. I know it wouldn't be particularly balanced, but it'd be quite fun :P
Cool idea! you did a good job! The best game for today! 5/5/5
I had a very very similar idea that I didnt get to quite implement, so it's cool to see how it could have turned out.
I had some trouble with the projectiles looking a bit too much like the player and getting lost a few times, but otherwise I was unkillable for a while before the level just didnt end and I had to restart the game. Im sure it's just a small bug or something.
Good job with this!
Nice! I'll definitely play again :>
Fun game. Presentation-wise it's one of the better games I've seen in this jam.
A very pretty and fun to play game!
very nice art.
very nice gameplay.
the mechanics were really nicely executed, but i would've enjoyed somewhat of a tutorial.
I really like how the health and damage is displayed on the dice faces! Fun to it down for a while and get the best upgrades. Good job!
Lovely stuff. The pastel colors are very nice on the eye and it's great you managed to squeeze accessibility options (and options at all) into the 48h development. Overall really fun!
Pretty fun! The art style is great and the game feels very polished. The character controls well too. I liked the tutorial, it was well done & a nice touch.
i love the art style, polish, and game feel! one thing though, there was nothing stopping me from just hanging out on platforms and baiting the enemies to fall down, allowing me to snipe them from above.
Very neat and fun arcade shooter! Some neat additions could be different stages with more stages, and maybe different dice acting as different weapons.
This is a fun arcade shooter! I got 1315 from making everything midas and spam clicking LOL
This was great! A lot of fun
absolutely love the visuals and the gameplay style!
Looks great, feels great and sounds great! Now i only need a multiplayer version :D
This is a very fun game. It is really satisfying to shoot all the enemies and the upgrades actually feel earned. Good job!
Extremely well polished and juicy animations. I kind of wish the upgrades were more "additive" instead of "selective" if that makes sense, since at a certain point gold kind of becomes pointless. Overall loved it though!
What a cool little game! You set simple goals for yourself and executed on them perfectly. A joy to play! Hats off.
