The game looks so polished for 48 jam, good job guys! I love the art and sounds.
One thing I would change as others suggested - I would add a button to reroll the dice and maybe a small overview of the game / tutorial. It was not hard to get but still little something would be great in my opinion.

It was really satisfying to hit multiple enemies with the bullet. Overall I really, really liked it! Again, good job.

Developer

Thanks for your thoughts :D

Great feedback!  I agree,  I think we kinda ramped up the difficulty too quickly.

I had the idea of doing little tips that would pop in from the side for each level when something new was introduced.  I think that would help.

Thanks for playing! Loved your game too :)

The game is very nice but its a bit hard.

Developer(+1)

Haha we made all 7 levels at midnight on the last day of the jam so we were expecting the difficulty curve to at be a little off. Thanks for your thoughts!

Your welcome!

Developer(+2)

totally fair.  

I think after having more time to play there's some level-design stuff we could do to make it more fun while also having a less steep learning curve.

That was pretty sick across the board. Fun gameplay and good looking.

Developer(+1)

Ya, that's great feedback.  I think it would be the easiest thing to do to make the current gameplay more fun.

Thank you for playing :)

Visuals are great. Wish the interaction was better. Didn't like clicking to reroll. Neat use of theme. Good job.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback :)

Developer(+2)

Thanks!  Ya, I think a spacebar to roll might have been better for the balancing we did.  I think ultimate I would have liked to have a slower roll and more strategic placement of units.

I loved this game! So much fun and the music was a total vibe. 11/10, would pay for it!

thank you jerba :)

Really fun! I think some kind of trajectory visualiser would be nice (like a line showing the path your piece will take)

Developer(+1)

We kind of thought the grid would help with that, but that's definitely a good point. Thanks for your feedback :D

Developer(+2)

thank you! that's a neat idea! 

Submitted(+2)

Very solid presentation but could have done with something like trajectory lines to make aiming easier. Good work :)

Developer

That's a great idea. Thanks for playing!
