Thanks a lot for playing and sharing your thoughts. Won't deny the lack of polish, probably a bit too ambitious this time. Still happy to hear it managed to grab you enough for 40 minutes despite the flaws!
Thanks a lot! And very fair critique. Definitely lacking music, that's one of our big regrets this time - out of time. Same excuse for the lack of polish, though we're still pretty happy we delivered something playable.
It's a cool game if you feel like doing math XD ! Still the presentation is great and so is the music. Super chill and relaxing. It doesn't loop long enough though... Sad...
It looks good but I feel like I cannot do much to strategize... I rolled odd 5 times in a row and found myself at -50$... What can I do from here excpept losing...
The game is super fun and cool and cute and smart ! But in the end, the "roll the dice" part of it is more of a hindrance, slows the game and feels like it doesn't belong here. Doesn't take away the quality of the game... Just it's not really in the theme...
Sometimes... You play a jam game and you're like... Wow... Just Wow !
If I could change one thing, I'd add a dice side for healing. So dices would be foe/sword/shield/heart. Apart from that, I have nothing to add. It was truly fantastic. Beyond anything I expected. Hat off to you !
Impressively polish presentation ! I was so happy when I realize I could jump again and reroll the number dice if I wasn't happy with it. This adds reflexes to the randomness and gives a bit of control. The -1 on the number for each reroll is also cool.
Very cool game ! A bit too random for my taste still ;)
Incredibly creative and fun to play ! A bit junky and wacky. Sometimes the dice struggles to land on one face for what feels like an eternity XD Overall, super impressive and cool !
Of all these "I am a dice that rolls and defeat foes with my numbers", this is one of (if not) the best. 1) The preview on the ground lets you see what you will roll before commiting 2) The time stops when you're not moving leaving you some time to consider what to do 3) You can roll several time a small number to beat a bigger one
These seem to be "small" improvements on paper but the stack up and make a huge difference !
Congrats for doing one of the most polish games in this new genre XD
In this game you have to FACE the danger XD One of the most innovative take on the theme ! Really good ! It's just so hard to actually but the dice on the right face...
You know what... I rarely give full score for a game... But there you go !
The concept, the art, the game design ! Everything was awesome ! It's a bit hard to understand at first. And there is obvious room for improvement (like more ways to interact with the structures and slimes) but it is super fun and creative !
I definitely agree with you ! The game sorely lacks background music and tutorial levels (and a control guide). It's just a shame we didn't have the time to add any of it.
As for what the structures do... Tbh, they do nothing at this point... We only had time to implement the summoning tiles : 1, 2 & 3. The four-tress (see what I did there ;) ) was supposed to block ennemy movement, and the 6-temple was supposed to heal/ressurect units. It just was too ambitious a scope for such a short jam.
The feedback has been heard !!! We wish we had more time to make the music, make the ennemy turn faster, fully integrate the animations and add the tutorial/guide.
You know what ? Most of the time, I had no idea what I was doing or why... But I still had fun. I even played 3-4 times. The chaining and the sound design is just that good.
Godamn that presentation ! Art, music and animation are all top-notch. If I had to nitpick I'd say "it's sad the guy you fight is not the same as the one you see in the room" XD
I loved all the mini games. I especially liked that, at some point, I just knew how to win "drop the ball" every single time.
Really liked this one. The concept is simple and easy to grasp ! It was fun to play ! The presentation is nice. Too bad there is no SFX. A game can go without music but without SFX, it feels hollow.
Not going to lie... I find it as creative as I find it frustrating to play XD Although I admire the endeavor and game design, It also really isn't for me ! Gave if full points for creativity ! Bravo !
