Hello Royal, Thanks for submitting your game! Really great concept although I am trash at puzzle games lol xD Also, the voice line really got stuck in my head. Great work.

Thanks a lot for playing. It was really fun seeing you play the game on twitch with the chat!

Loved the visuals of the game. Also loved the Option menu and the end :)

The mechanics of the game introduce just enough difficulty curve to the game as well.

Interesting concept, I love the options menu.

On a more serious note, I think I found a potential bug. I don’t imagine the die should be rolling off the path.

TSUNAGARI TOWER: Phoebe's Ascent

Haha yeah, that's not supposed to happen. Not sure how that's even possible :P Thanks for playing!

I thought that last wheel was going to rotate it the other way; was not expecting such a turn of events! Very neat concept.

Crap: A Crime Story

Good game overall. Controls could be improved (space instead of enter and menu navigation without mouse).

The Dice of Time

One of the more creative ideas I saw here at the jam

It trains predictable skills with spatial thinking, good job

Haha yeah, I got a lot better at it myself when making this. Thanks for playing :)

Cool Idea, neat animations, concept is really well developed. Was a fun brain teaser.

Dice Loaded Audio Gun

This is a cool game! I like the lighting, and I think the length of the game is perfect, doesn't get repetitive. Maybe a little too easy, though.

I really liked the concept and the aesthetics. My biggest gripe with the game was the input to start the dice and the fact that you need to use your mouse to go to the next level. The user experience would be much better if you could play this game with one hand only and rather than using the Enter key to start the dice, Spacebar would be more fitting in my opinion since it's reachable from the same hand that you use for the other inputs. I would also remove the need to use the mouse and click to go to the next level and just use the spacebar to do that. But other than that really enjoyed the game!

Thanks for your reply. I think you make an excellent point regarding the user experience, and if I were to do more work on this game, that is probably the first thing I'd change.

BlueMangoSubmitted2 years ago(+1)

Nice concept. Its simple but fun and has nice difficulty. Perfect for a jam game!

Cool concept but a little confusing at first but a cool game once I got my head around how to play, good job!

A great puzzle!!
It did hurt my brain sometimes, but I really felt smart when I get the solution.
Congrats!

Perfectly amazing.

Very confusing to me. Unfortunately the tutorial wasn't helpful enough and I couldn't figure out how to get the die in the right position.

Thanks for your comment! I agree that the "tutorial" is very lackluster. I think a real tutorial with some onscreen instructions could fix that. Thanks for playing! :D

Thanks for your comment! I personally really like the voicelines, but you are right offcourse. There should have been an option to mute them, if I'll ever update the game I will add that. Glad you enjoyed the game a bit!
