Fun game, but it would be nice if it was easier to see what the other sides of the dice are.

Fun little game! Give me a level editor with some complex iterations: time to build a computer!!!
Other than that, I know that the sum of opposite faces is 7, but we probably need a way to tell which faces are on the sides as well, cuz I cannot tell hahaha


Now, could I ask you to give our game review? We are stuck into "low-ratings hell" :')

nice take on this puzzle. you see alot of this kind of puzzle in this game jam, but the way youve had it play out is different which i like

Submitted

Interesting concept. It would be nice to have some grid lines for the more open spaces, and the addition of some background music could help set the atmosphere. The nice sound feedback from the dice makes it really satisfying when you roll it around in loops to get the right number.

Submitted

I liked the concept, but I wish it was easier to figure out what the other sides of the die are... since the controls are mouse based, maybe you could display stuff when you click on or hover over the die or something?  Definitely an annoying problem to solve, my team's submission was a top-down 2D dice roller puzzle game too.

Submitted

Really liked the idea and game! One thing though is that it can be hard to  tell where your die will end up when planning out a stage because the background is solid grey. Maybe add a grid, or a grid option?

Submitted

Very unique game, still confused how I solved some of the puzzles but it was fun. Music would be nice, and some way to know what's coming up on the dice, but other than that incredibly solid game!

Submitted

I never seen a game like this in this jam before! Well done!

Psst! Check out my game: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-jam-2022/rate/1613573

Love how you made the player program the directions instead of controlling the dice directly, really sets the game apart from the rest of the entries with a similar mechanic.

Submitted

Definitely a unique take on the theme.

Submitted

Fun little puzzle game! Music would be nice, and I think a way to see what move was coming next would be nice. The game is a lot of trial and error unless I am missing something.

Submitted

Fun little puzzle game. Would love added music. Good job.

Neat game and I liked the concept. Got a little confused sometimes about what sides of the dice were what and that made it quite challenging!

We actually made quite a similar game too haha!

Indicators would be great as i cant tell what I get when i move.

Submitted

This game has a great simplicity to it that makes puzzle chill and fun to solve. Nice stuff!

Submitted

This idea is fantastic, it would be helpful to have some sort of reference dice so its not just trial and error. Please finish this game it's awesome.

It's way too hard to beat the levels, since I can't tell what I'll get when I move.

Wow, such a simple game and look how much fun this is! I love these types of games. A great fit for the theme and a super enjoying experience! I hope you continue work on this game and add some music and polish! The only thing I don't love is that it's a bit of a learning curve trying to place the dice in 3D and think about which side is where and what the orientation is. But I don't have a great solution for that.

Submitted

Cool game. While playing this game I felt just like when I was creating levels for mine ^^
