This is pretty fun! The gameplay, the graphics and the SFX are awesome. I really like the design of three in a roll. Great job!!
Really pretty and visually polished game! I liked that dice that I missed a throw on could be used to link with two others and do a lot of damage. However, I missed throws a lot. Maybe I don't fully understand the throwing mechanic, but I kept either overshooting or undershooting throws when flicking a die with my mouse. Despite that, I got pretty far thanks to the linking mechanic and got to see all the different enemies. They're all so cute! The sounds they make are adorable.
the game looks visually appealing but the controls for throwing the dice, which is the core mechanic, feels weird. i would like to try it again when the controls are fixed. still a great job!
Thanks for giving it a go! We've already got a fixed version waiting for uploads to unlock!
10/10 so unique and colorful! love it!!!
Overall really well made game! Very polished visually, and has nice sounds! There was some clunkiness to the gameplay, both in flinging the dice and in that I didn't always feel like I was able to actually attack the enemies that I wanted to-- but for what it is, it's great!
The game was pretty good looking with all of these color lights. But throwing the dice felt really weird. 90% of the time the dice doesn't even start and I didn't feel like I had much control over it. I that would be fixed this game could be pretty fun.
Very unique and good looking game! I think there were some bugs with the UI though, when you lost there seemed to be no text at all. Also I felt like I didn't have that much control over the dice, but I still had fun trying to protect my little dice tower. Nicely done!
It was very pretty, the 3D graphics and lighting are awesome.
But I do agree with others that the dice throwing mechanic could have had improved controls.
Not saying that you should give full control on the dice, but give just enough so that the player can feel that they have an effect on the outcome.
I do like the match 3 aspect, good game overall :)
Overall the game was quite good. I wasn't a huge fan of the die flicking mechanic though. It felt a bit awkward/difficult to control. Music and graphics complemented the gameplay well though.
Cute graphics, and I love the feeling of flicking the dice around! The only issue I ran into was the audio getting a bit loud when you have several dice in play/attacking enemies, but overall the game is very polished
Neat idea! I love the idea of the dice combining to do an explosion.
I think this would work better if you dragged the dice back for strength of throwing (Like Angry Birds) rather than the flicking which gives you far less control over where they land. Also the ranged purple guys felt like they tanked shots far more than other monster types and were very difficult to handle.
Good job overall!
yeah actually that's not a bad idea, BUT I like the idea that as the God of Chance, you are kinda just flicking these dice from the heavens down to Earth with your finger. I think we can do a lot of tweaking to make the flicking a lot better but you're right, it currently is too hard to control (but once you play it for long enough you can get pretty good!). Thanks!
Saving the universe is tough! But with such graphics, it’s a delight.
The dice physics might need a bit of polishing, but it’s a great game!
Agreed on the improvements! Thanks for playing!
Amazing visuals, sounds and music, but the gameplay was a bit hard, I couldn't survive 30sec but maybe thats just a skill issue xD Great game!
Hi thanks for playing! I assure you it's a balance problem not a skill problem!
Super cool concept and I love the art. The dice-flicking mechanic was pretty challenging to navigate with the mousepad, but it was super satisfying watching the powers activate once I got the hang of it. Including a score system that keeps track of how many enemies were killed may give the player a better sense of their progress in the game. Overall well done!
Thanks for the comments! Agreed on all points and we are working on a small update to address these issues for the post-jam
