Nice idea! controls were a little weird, and the UI was a little pixelated.


Great take on the theme and congrats!

Really fun and interesting take on the idea! Took me a second to figure out how to place the dice, but I really enjoyed it once I did. Took me a few tries to not get wrecked by the rolling die though haha

Congrats on submitting, and thanks for the game!

Neat concept! I like the strategy required in having to stack the dice from high value to low. Agree with other comments that I'd like a little more time to build, but being able to keep building during the Attack Phase was a nice touch. Very stressful.

Nice work!

This really puts the fear in "Roll of the Dice," protecting the towers from giant dice.

The idea behind this game is quite cool, I really enjoyed it! Just a small observation, there's a bit of a mismatch between the chill music and being on a timer. The controls are a bit fiddly, but after a few fails I was able to figure it out, maybe a more fixed camera wouldn't be bad? In general, really fun! Nice work

pretty nice game

Great idea! As amarney said, I would love to have more time to think where to place the dices so the game is more chill

Very unique physics-based puzzle/strategy game. If I were to change one thing, I think having a timer for when the attack comes feels very out of place. If there was an "end turn" button, it would have been much more chill (which fits the vibe of the music more). Overall though, extremely creative and fun game.

I thought this was super fun!

Хорошая игра, идея мне нравится.
Было бы круто доработать систему расстановки кубов, иногда не размещаются.
Желаю авторам успехов!

I like that you took the concept of rolling the dice and did this, its so original!

Very cool idea! Could also have different sided dice have different strength/special effects to add to the strategy :)

Submitted

Very fun game with an extremely interesting and unique concept that could easily be expanded upon. Very nice job.

What a cool idea! It took me a minute to figure out where I was supposed to place the dice, but once I had that sorted it was smooth sailing. You can really feel the effects of the randomness here, but you get enough dice that it never feels like you're really being screwed over by it. Nice!

Nice chilled game but tactical enough to make you want to keep going.
