Really cool take on the tower defense genre! This game is actually really fun to play through, I think if you add more polish this game can become really good. Good job!

Would love if you can check out my game too. Thanks!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Will do.

This is pretty fun, I like how the upgrade is affected by the dice roll. It would be cool if it affected the abilities a bit more, like affecting what grade ability you get. I also found that the towers don't target the one that is at the front of the enemies leading to enemies passing by even though they can be killed. Also a life system would be good. But overall great job.

This is pretty fun! It would be nice if there was more strategy with the dice and if there were more types of heroes to use. It was very satisfying getting stronger and also getting good dice combinations!

Great game, i liked the xp gain being connected to the dice rolls. Even if you got low numbers you got high xp making it not sting as much. The upgrade system was also pretty fun

A Tower Defense with dice rolls, i enjoyed it a lot. I even managed to finish the game, even though it was tough at the end. The numerous varations of upgrades adds a lot of depth to the strategic planning. I was initially just confused as to why the enemies weren't moving until I realized I had to roll the dice. More feedback would have helped on that. Overall i think you did a good job on this submission.

Dice roll controls the time interval of the game, I like it. I have two suggestion though. I dislike how the projectiles are just white squares, maybe make a pixel art circle with a bit of colour. Also, add an audio slider so the player can control the audio. I like hearing music when I play games so it was unfortunate that I had to choose between the music being too loud or no music at all.

Besides them two issues, I liked the game.  

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I would love to add some crazy particles to the projectiles if given more time xD.

Fun to play, the power up and dice combo mechanics are great! One idea could be a reroll mechanic so the player can reroll a given die to aim for a better hand.

Simple but effective game, kept me glued to it until I finished it. Sound design helped make the dice rolls feel really satisfying when you get a big combo. Also felt very powerful when the little blasts turn into full on barrages with clipping audio. Would play a different map

Probably my favourite version of Tower Defence so far. Love the Yahtzee/Poker style probability mixed with Tower Defense gameplay.
