The art style is freaking amazing!

Awesome game!

I love the art style, it looks amazing and the level design is really fun! Great puzzle game! This game feels more like an actual strategy game than trial and error.

Great work!

Really fun  game, I've seen a few games adopt this mechanic but the multiple dice levels were really interesting because it felt like they encouraged more strategy than trial and error. The art is adorable and the movement feels really snappy. Not completely original but really well executed. Well done!

A very nice game! Loved the humour in some of the levels, like a sequence of 5 cells that are filled easily and the last one that is hard. Great visuals, although being 2D they make navigating a bit difficult. Wish the cube moved a bit faster or recorded repeating keystrokes (I did this in my game, btw), since trying various paths in large levels can become repetitive and a bit tiring. A fun game overall, good job!

Fun and solid idea, very well executed. The only thing I was missing was a visual indicator of which side the dots of the dice are on. In my playthrough it was mostly just trial and error. Despite that, i think you did a good job.

A simple and common mechanic, but really fun. 
I'm not sure why, but I found the difficulty on this one a bit on my level.
I finished all the levels and never got frustrated even once, which I really liked.

Really hoped Gnargle don't drink more dice in the future.
Congrats on completing the jam !

Wow amazing game! The graphics are great and fit reallt well with the music. I found that the levels had just the right amount of challenge, so that it that they weren't too hard nor too easy. For some reason level 9 made me chuckle a bit when the last dice didn't fit.

Love the art used here and the really well designed levels. The last level took me quite a while but I eventually got there in the end. Overall a good game that I enjoyed greatly.

Really nice idea! The controls feel a bit laggy, but the presentation is top notch and the Gurgle is adorable

Another one with an idea similar to mine, but with a way better presentation, I loved the art style, vfx, sfx, its beautiful! Congrats! I just wish there were a way for me to know what number is on the sides.

Thanks! I agree, I had the idea to do it the same way you did, but have not got time to do it

Love the visuals! The intro animation is especially wonderful. Would be nice if there were more indicators of your dice orientation, I found myself guessing for most of the puzzles.

Nice concept! The visuals were great. It would be nice if there was a visual indication of the which faces were in each direction. I found myself just clicking random keys until i beat some of the puzzles.

Developer

Thank you! I agree, was thinking about cube scheme somewhere on the screen from the start, never got to adding it

Submitted(+1)

This is not the first game with this idea I played, but definitely the one with the better visuals ! Great art !

That said, seeing only one face of dice at once makes it really hard to plan ahead your moves. In the end I mostly bruteforced the levels. :D

The colour scheme and art of this game is great!

The game is beautiful!! I enjoyed playing it :)

tutorial? is there a pattern to the dice? cuz it didn't seem like there was one to me. i was just doing randomly. other than that it is a good game. if that logic of changing the dice exists and is sensible then it is a great game.

Developer

Thanks! I hoped first levels act like tutorial. The pattern is fixed and always the same (opposing sides add to 7, as on real dice), but I agree that dice map somewhere on the screen would be helpful

Loved the opening! Really well done! The game is fun and very clean.
