So glad someone incorporated a rubiks cube! Was on the verge of doing so myself

The presentation is very impressive and I see a lot of potential to extend the mechanics

I just wish there was a way to see the other sides of the cube to plan ahead and maybe get it into a "solved" state where some faces are completely filled with dots for maximum damage/shield

Absolutely great aesthetics, very interesting gameplay with meaningful choices based on the enemy's next action ... plus I absolutely love turn-based combat games !

Submitted

This is really cool! Great visuals and interesting and unique gameplay!

Submitted

Amazing concept! The execution and presentation were incredible. Outstanding game!

Submitted

Wow ! Really cool game loved the art and animations, felt like a fully released and polished game, I love the color pallet and aesthetic too, Really good stuff and nicely done overall !! :D

Great Work!

I really loved your Art Work and the Animations as well. Game is kinda addicting even I don't really into turn based games. This Game should be developed further more.

Submitted

As others have said, being able to see the hidden faces would be nice, it would let me plan ahead a little better. As far as I could tell, the dice did not stay the same between combats, but I could be wrong!

Great level of polish, the combat felt satisfying!

Hey there, fellow cuber! Nice to see we were not alone with the Rubik's cube idea.

I quite like the style of this game! I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to actually rotate the cube faces and even after a while, I still ended up sometimes rotating a way I didn't intend to. Maybe add a preview indicator of some sort?

Other than that, I enjoyed the game idea, but as others have pointed out, it becomes a bit repetitive after a while. I think one thing that might help a lot here would be if instead of being decided by the majority of dots, each red dot was an attack and each orange dot was a defense point. That might add some strategic depth. I also kinda want do suggest adding some deckbuilding mechanics, but that's just because I'm a sucker for deckbuilding mechanics.

A few more UI improvements I would suggest:
- Have some way to show the hidden faces of the cube, so that you don't have to guess what's there.
- Show how much enemies attack for.

All in all, really solid start, and I'd like to see this being expanded on!

Thank you for your comments! I agree that the game need more depth for strategies. Not sure you if met bugs. You could try to drag/swipe on cube face to turn it.

游戏的整体效果做的很有风格,尤其是扔骰子的部分。

作为一个回合制的策略游戏,可能需要更多的策略深度。

The game feels very unique and stylish, especially for the rolling part.

As a turn-based game, I think there need more depth for strategies.

Developer

感谢试玩!确实没掌握好时间打磨机制,我自己都很快无聊了。

Its a really cool idea for a mechanic but once you learn how it works its not really fun, there's no sense of risk and it becomes extremely tedious waiting for the enemies to decide to not do anything and wear down their health. I called it quits after getting to the red cloud. But yeah its nicely made, dragging on the cube to switch the faces is really easy and it all looks quite nice

Developer

Thank you for playing! The cube is kind of random now. Need some more design.

Submitted

Really loved the art and animations! Gameplay is also pretty addicting, although repeatedly rolling the dice to get the action you want can get a bit tedious.

Submitted

I can tell this is a fun game because I played it for a very long time xD

Seriously, the art, sounds and gameplay were all expertly crafted.  Although the dots and colors on the cube are random, they seem to give you a fair chance at defending or attacking whenever it's necessary.

Awesome work!

Developer

Thank you! So glad that you enjoy my game! You are right about the random part. Need some more design.

Submitted

Interesting and unique upgrade from a regular dice. Very clear and understandable UI.

Submitted

I really liked the art and atmosphere. It is confusing that you can't really tell how much damage an enemy is doing. Quickly the strategic depth runs out, since there is no way to recover any damage taken. If the enemy attacks, it seems like you have to defend, or else you will quickly die. There was also a bug where one of the red center squares turned black and stayed that way even after rolling. 

Also, don't forget a way to quit the application.

Developer

I spend a whole day coding on the cube but still find bug in the end 😂, Thanks for playing!

Submitted

想法很有意思,画风很棒,打磨的也不错,可惜的是一直遇到一些bug,包括cube突然消失、重叠,不能很好进行游戏

我觉得参考杀戮尖塔提前提示敌人的攻击点数可以让puzzle体验更加有趣

Developer

写了一天的魔方骰子最后还是有 BUG 😂,感谢试玩!

Incredibly creative, awesome job!

Submitted

Wow, amazing mechanic and presentation, love it ! I love the small number accurate calculation based battle, it brings the feeling of when I first time play Slay the Spire, super well done! Bravo!

Developer

I really enjoy implementing this game. Thank you for playing!

Submitted(+1)

魔方和骰子的结合好有趣!

Submitted

太好玩了,完全停不下来!要是actions能与战斗挂钩(奖励一类)会体验更好!或者战士也可以休息回血之类

Developer(+1)

gameplay 确实还能细化,感谢游玩!

Submitted

Great art presentation, game mechanics are also very creative! But, the boss is kidding me?

Developer

Thank you for playing! Dont have enough time for balancing 😂
