The idea is very cool, and the execution is great. The game has great polish and I really like the simple art!
This was real fun! I liked that the dice you pick get used up, creating a need for longer-term thinking. The different dice types and upgrades, as well as the enemy types, were all really nice.
A gripe (that comes up with many games) is the combination of keyboard and mouse controls but then a menu that can't be navigated with the mouse. A little annoying, but not a huge issue. (Also, the "how to play" button didn't seem to work?)
But overall, a really solid entry. Great work!
Yeah, when I first designed the controls, I was using a controller. So it felt natural to navigate the UI. I realized most people would be using a keyboard and that it felt a little weird, but by then it was too late to change it. I also never had time to implement the How To Play screen. I'm glad you enjoyed it though!
Great game! Seeing the way all the dice combos worked was super fun. My personal favorite was eternity + multishot + drunken bullets. Beat a few rounds by filling basically the entire screen with my own instakill bullets. If you wanted to keep developing, adding some enemies with ranged attacks might be a fun direction to give it a little more bullet hell flavor.
Very fun little game! You have a lot of different dice effects, I was pleasantly surprised!
Some dice combination are way too strong but it means it's very fun to play!
Anyway, really enjoyed, good work!
At it's base a typical wave-based shooter, but with some awesome powerup combinations that really kept me entertained throughout.
Just about the right length to see all the combos I wanted - well done!
It's so fun and polished! Great visuals! Good job
Wow amazing, this is a full fledged game, so well polished and well presented, tons of fun and depth to it, well balanced. No faults at all. In 48hours too!! How big is your team?
No team! Just me!
Hands down one of the best games I’ve played in this game this far in the game jam.
Really awesome game! I must ask, was this game inspired by Rounds? Some random objects in the scene would be cool and the sound of the explosions is very loud (in the bossfight) Very epic game tho, well done.
Would be awesome if you could check out our game as well :)
Yeah, apologies about the sound. I made those sounds at the very last minute so they didn’t get very much love. I’m super glad you liked it!
LOL your game made me laugh! good job!
DRUNKEN BULLETS + BOOMERANG BEST COMBO. 10/10 WILL PLAY AGAIN
Really glad you liked it! Thanks for playing!
This was wonderful. Increasing the complexity with the combining of various dice as you progress keeps you coming back for more each round.
Really fun little arena shooter!
Great feel with the sound effects and overall polish
Super unique mechanic, and great game feel :)
At first i struggled to see how it fit the theme, then once the first wave was done it all hit me. Amazing concept and great looking art!
I love everything about this
The Art,Sound/Music, And gameplay are amazing and make this game really addicting
Great job!
GOod
Fun game with some very well done pixel art.
Very fun game and the presentation is absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks for playing! I’m glad that you enjoyed it
