played this game significantly longer than most others that i reviewed. 
very fun.

Developer

Thanks a lot :):):)

Submitted

i think i didn't express myself well enough tbh
the presentation of this game is incredible, and it's also incredible how fun it is
i found it frustrating to keep dying very quickly, but that didn't stop me from playing because it's was a genuine blast to play your game
great job! 

Developer

hey, thanks for expanding :) I think a large part of the fustration is from the Nexus being too weak, and the dice being difficult to throw. We're going to fix these small issues and provide an update after the jam and hopefully it will give a large improvement to the overall experience. I'm glad that you like the presentation. I love games that look pretty, so I always strive to push that in my own games

I really enjoyed it, it is a really unique concept. It was a bit hard attacking since the dragging was a bit sensitive, it would immediately snap back into place. But it was very enjoyable!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for trying it out! Yeah the dice dragging would be one of the first things I would like to improve. The trick is a nice quick click-drag-release flick motion. And with practice, you can get quite good at hitting the monsters directly!

Submitted(+1)

Looks really neat, I really liked all the VFX. The gameplay seemed quite simple but also challenging to control and I didn't understand what the numbers on the dice did. I also sucked at throwing dice so I usually died quite fast, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.

Developer

Hi, thanks a lot for trying it out! The numbers on the dice will combine together and the higher it is the larger the effect and power of the ability. The dice throwing is challenging yeah, but with practice, I found it quite fun flinging the dice at the monsters.

holy cow! loved the art style and ambiance nice entry, and good work !!

Thanks a lot for playing!

Great presentation. All the little details as mentioned before adds to it!

I love the "next universe" instead of "try again"!

I love the presentation of this game, and the physics interactions are just really playful!
The scene is just really well put together in general, it looks fantastic!

I would have loved to be able to swivel the camera around or in some other way have more options for viewing the field of play, but it sure wasn't necessary for me to enjoy the game. Just a suggestion!

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing! I never thought about the ability to change the camera view. But now that you mention it, I guess it could add a lot to the strategy because it could help you position the dice better

Visuals are really sick for this one! Definitely a bunch of really cool looking effects, and I love the concept of a fun hand eye coordination type game of physically throwing projectiles at enemies like you usually would in a vr game, just could use a little more indication of where these are going to be flying to, perhaps a meter like they have in golf games showing the speed of the dice while you're feigning throws to get a good angle?

Developer(+1)

Hi thanks a lot for playing :) Yeah I think a visualisation to the dice trajectory could add another dimension to the game. Cheers for the feedback 

Submitted(+1)

Super beautiful. This could be a neat skill-based game. I was just having a bit of trouble grabbing dice, as they get moved to the side by new ones. Maybe leave them in place, and fill new ones in from the bottom ?

Developer

Hi thanks for playing and for the feedback. I definitely agree about the dice shifting positions. In fact it annoyed me as well while play testing in the final minutes but alas, we only have so much time ;) We may update this game with all the feedback after the voting period

Great visuals and I like the electric effect between the dice.

Developer

Thanks a lot! Not the easiest thing to implement but we got there in the end

Submitted(+1)

super cool game~clear mechanic and nice feedback , I like the Thunder dice! ~ would be better if the dice dropping location could be more predictable ~

Developer

Thanks a lot! Yes I think if the dice dropping landing location can be visualised ahead of time then the game could become more strategic instead of more dexterity-based.

I love the story and the gameplay feels pretty good once you get an understanding of how to utilize the dice. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Amazing Visuals, Interesting storytelling, this game is really good!

Developer

Thanks!

Great visuals! Nice concept here. Hard!

Great visuals! Nice concept here. Hard!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah the game is very hard. I think the Nexus could do with maybe 5x the current HP

Feels a bit as if Loki programmed a game, it's definitely full of chaos. Fun to play and great visuals!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Did you know that there's a God of Chance in Greek Mythology: Tyche

Submitted(+1)

Smooth gameplay, very fun to play! It did take me a few minutes to understand the basics, perhaps a small tutorial could help.

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+2)

Really nice visual, but unclear gameplay :(

Developer(+1)

Hi thanks for trying to play. We should've included some basic instructions in the game. You can swipe the dice to throw them into the field and hit the bad guys. 3 dice in close proximity can combine and produce special powers!

Submitted(+1)

Cool game! I t would have been nice if there was some sort of tutorial in game.

Developer

Yes agree! Thanks for trying :)

Submitted(+1)

I found it hard to understand what was going on but once I did it was quite fun.

Developer

Hi, thanks for playing! Yeah we would've done better to include some instructions in the game
