The game looks amazing, there are some with similar concept but no doubt this is one of the most polished one. Just chill and superb visual. Great work.

I love the art! It's a really good game and super chill. Music goes nicely with the game. I saw many games with similar concept and so far this is definitely the most polished one. Specially the rotating tile is nice touch, because it gets rid of the annoying  walking in circles (squares). With more levels I can imagine it goes straight to store.

Nice puzzler! I had a lot of fun playing this with my buds. One thing that is challenging with this type of game is that it is too hard to keep all the possible rotations of a 3D die in your head when trying to solve puzzles, so it ends up being the kind of puzzle you just try for a while until you figure it out. That's not a bad thing though! It's like untying a satisfying knot and the visuals definitely helped create a fun place to hang out and solve puzzles in. One last suggestion is that rails on the edges of the level might have helped with accidental KOs. There were a few times I shouted at my computer and I'm not exactly proud of it. Great job with this game, we had fun!

Thank you for playing the game and putting that much effort in writing such a detailed review! We will definitely look forward to make some changes to the game  :)

The graphics are so good ! Great choice of color and really clean rendering. Well done ! For the gameplay, I have to say I have seen so many games with a similar concept that I'm a bit bored of it, and I'm really bad at anticipating dice roll positions, so I struggle a lot on this kind of game... But your game is definitely the most polished I've seen !

Really pretty game! Cool puzzles and a very polished look. The camera configuration made the controls a bit confusing as some others have mentioned, but once you get used to it the game is quite relaxing. Great work!

Very good game.

Great vibe and cute voxel art style, with many mechanics to enjoy.

I enjoyed this well made puzzle game :)

Love the aesthetic and overall vibe of your game. The puzzles were definitely pretty interesting and not as straightforward as I thought they might've been.

One thing that really annoyed me throughout is that the diagonal perspective really screwed with how my brain perceived which control meant which direction.
I understand that this perspective really helps with giving the player an idea of where the faces of the die are at but its very annoying when your die doesn't move the way you want. 

Just an idea, consider having a more straight perspective and let the player slightly turn the camera to each side (maybe with mouse movement) so that the controls feel smoother, but still give the player just as much, if not more, information than it does now.

Overall though, I really enjoyed your game!

I love the atmospheric vibe and simple gameplay! After playing a lot of complicated games, it's really relaxing to see a game with really straightforward controls.

Really good execution of a simple but interesting idea. Your puzzles are enjoyable and rewarding when resolve them !

Love the aesthetics! Controllers with the isometric view confuse so much! Great work though!

I have seen many games like this one, but I could say this one is the one I love. The visuals and music are very relaxing. And instead of just rolling to the goal there are more elements added to make it not repetitive.  Great job!

The visuals and music are very good. The puzzles can be a bit hard, but it's understandable because of the 6-sided die.

Very well polished!

A very polished game. It could be more different to all the other games with the same mechanic but overall it was a fun experience.

Developer

Thanks playing and reviewing the game :)

Very polished. I won mostly through trial and error so I didn't like it as much as I could have. But the execution makes up for it. Great job!

Developer

Thanks :)

very cool and polished game, nice puzzles as well

the controls are a bit hard to get used to. i kept falling off the platform and restarting because i kept pressing the button for one thing instead of another, etc., meaning i spent more time focusing on pressing the correct buttons instead of actually playing the game. other than that, very cool!

Developer

Thanks for playing and writing a review! We definitely should release an updated version where the player can remap the controls. :)

Cool mood/vibe. Love the palette: it’s colorful without being too noisy.

An impressive amount of features for such a short jam.

I was slightly frustrated by the inputs (for some reason, my brain likes to tilt the other way (so left moves you to the top-left) corner, and that made me make a lot of mistakes so I had to start over a lot.

Progression in levels felt good :), perhaps slightly leaning towards the easy side, but that’s probably for the better. I tend to make my games way too hard myself.

Nice little touches to make it juicy (Screenshake, particles).

Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing and taking the time to write such a nice review! We also had a big discussion in our team how to map the input keys to the controls of the cube. Perhaps we should give the player an option to remap the keys in a future update.

Very chill puzzle game, love the voxel art and the drone wave music.

Thanks for playing and your kind review! :)
