Excellent work, very polished! I got 2334 :)
Thanks for the comment! We hope you enjoyed it :)
good game 10/10
Thanks for playing! We appreciate the support :)
very nice game! very fun!
Thanks for the comment! Good to hear you had fun with it :)
Fantastic game with a lot of polish! The feedback from the combat feels satisfying. I can tell you put a lot of effort :) This is honestly a very good game! Good job mate!
Thanks very much for your feedback! We decided to prioritise a game that felt good to play over one with heaps of different elements; if we had more time, there might have been even more features (like enemies with different behaviours or other gameplay interactions).
This was a blast! A really polished and tight experience, the different dice throws work really well and the overall feedback in the gameplay sells it all. Honestly one of my favorite games from the jam so far! Nice work!
Hey mate! thank you for the kind words! we are glad you enjoyed the game since we put a lot of effort into it.
Oh! Really satisfying to beat those zombies with a dice. Good idea and seems addictive
Thanks for playing! Took a while to get the dice physics working just right, but we were happy with how it worked out.
this feels so good to play!!! It might not be the most original idea or type of game, but it really does feel good. The throwing animation of the dice is wonderful and perfectly animated with the physics, the character movement is great. This game is really polished, good job! Again might not be the most original idea in the world, but it does it wonderfully. Hope you keep working on this idea and expand it after the jam!
edit: forgot to say that that red dude came straight for my booty lol, that was brutal
Thanks for playing! We decided to go with something simple and polish and refine it as much as possible within the time limit, so even though it's pretty straightforward we're proud of it.
And yeah those red guys are pretty relentless, haha
Awesome game!
Really good job keeping the player engaged throughout the experience! Difficulty ramps up well!
Thanks for the comment! We spent a fair bit of time before submitting on just tweaking the game balance, so that it would feel satisfying to play.
The presentation and gameplay were amazing! For a jam game, this is really awesome! Nice work!
Thanks for the comment! We worked hard to get the feel of the game just right, and even though we couldn't implement all the features we wanted, we were still happy with how it turned out.
Can't believe you made this in 48 hours, amazing work
Thanks for playing, hope you enjoyed it!
Fantastic game. I hope that more people see this and decide to give it a go because it is a lot of fun. I really liked how you pick up and throw one dice at a time and every face has a different and interesting result. Great interpretation of the theme.
Thanks for giving it a go! Great to hear you enjoyed it :)
really nice feel to it, it's definitely got polish. i liked it, wish there was a bit more mechanically tho but it's a jam game
Thank you! we tried really hard. Yeah if we had more time then for sure! we had so many more ideas we wanted to add.
ohhhhhh what an amazing game!!! 5/5 in everything dude!
Thank you! glad you liked it
Very fun game and i really like the animations
Hahaha thanks mate!
I enjoyed this game so much! I like how the dice have different effects on all of the faces--it seems like a lot of other submissions use more standard numbered dice. More different types of dice might shake up the gameplay even more. I also liked how the dice collided with one another. Maybe throwing one die into another could cause it to roll as well?
Cheers for the comment! that is a really good idea! if we had another day to work on the project that would be something we would definitely explore!
Very Poggers game, super epic Pog 5/5 would play again, would recommend
Thanks for playing, glad to know it's verified poggers :)
AMAZING GAME! This is so much fun for a 48 hour game! The 2 ways you throw dice actually matter due to enemy variety. There's also a lot of enemies, so there won't be any boredom soon. The effects each dice does also create unique situations that aren't frustrating (since the result isn't pivotal, just convenient). Overall amazing game!
Thanks for the praise! We worked hard to get a good balance, so it's awesome so hear you had such a good time with it.
