I really like the visuals and audio, but I found the platforming to be incredibly frustrating. I think my longest run didn't even make it to 30 seconds. I think the main issue is a roll of 1-3 made it essentially impossible to jump more than 1-2 platforms before a huge gap appeared, and the die moved too fast for me to reliably hit them to pick up a 5 or 6. This meant that 50% of the time I would be gifted with a die that guaranteed I would lose.
I can think of two things that might make the game less frustrating: 1) if you tweak your procedural generation to also generate some long paths with lots of short jumps, that way you don't make half the dice useless, and/or 2) if there was some benefit to rolling a low number, such as a faster move speed or time slowing down.
Nice look but a really bad game stopper if you don't get the high numbers at the very start.
The art was very nice, but if you don't get a 4, 5, or 6 at the beginning you just have to prepare 2 die, because there is no way to save yourself. Also, at a certain point the platforms were to high for me to get to, and I just died.
Yeah the too high platforms can happen... probably need to tighten up the procedural generation to avoid that
Great game! Challenging in a good way, fast paced and looks brilliant!
You need a dice of at least 4 to reliably jump through the gaps. Problem is that the dice fall so fast it is just random and you have no chance to control it.
what a funky fresh game! Cool sound , artwork and game play.
As someone who totally did not work on the game and has absolutely no bias to it, I can say 100% this is better then Elden Ring
