Nice and clean look&feel. The puzzles were creative. Not all were trivial (I have failed to solve the last one). Good work overall. I would add the credit menu or rename the non-existing settings menu. I would add an undo button.

Hey, thanks for playing the game and leaving very constructive criticism! The Settings button was meant to lead to a settings menu, but we didn't have enough time to actually add any settings, but I agree, maybe renaming that to credits or adding them somewhere else would be clearer. And undo button is also an interesting suggestion. Thanks again for playing!

Very nice addition to the dice rolling puzzle genre. The frosted glass is a great visual touch.

I like the mechanic a lot. However I did not know about it up until level 4 lmao.

Really like the atmosphere of the game, the transitions, graphics and audio matches each other very well. You also introduced new mechanics gradually, good job!

However I think the transitions stopped working since level 8 or something.

Thank you for the feedback!
The transitions do in fact stop after level 8 which is a bit sad. We implemented them a bit too late into the jam, and I honestly just messed up after level 8.
Also good to know that the mechanic wasn't clear enough in the beginning, we will keep working on this game and see how we can better explain the mechanic from the get go.

Cheers!

A little bit of a different spin on a common idea. I really like the math spin you put on this and I think it sets itself apart because of that. Great job!

Another unique interpretation on the most common concept this jam. Decent graphics, polished feel and nice puzzles. Definitely give this a go if you enjoyed all the other similar ones. Good Job.

Very nice looking game! Puzzles are mostly on the easier side and most can be brute-forced quite easily. But there was a few making me calculate moves. Good job!

Thanks for coming to my stream! Here's a recording in case you'd like to refer to it

Hey, thank you for playing our game on stream, it was very fun to see you figure everything out! Also thank you for the valuable feedback. All puzzles were sadly relatively easy or could be brute forced. Since we will be working a bit more on this in the future, we will at least know what to focus on, and for that we are very grateful, thank you!

Cheers!

The graphics are great! Everything looks really pretty especially considering the time limit. The mathematical mechanics are a fun twist. The only issue I found was that at some point the music and level transitions just stop.

Thank you for playing the game and leaving this helpful feedback! Both the music and the transitions stopping are really stupid mistakes that happened in the last few hours of the jam but at least we have something easy to fix now :D
