Game looks really amazing and well-polished. Gameplay is fun, but pretty hard.

I wish the projectile colors were different from the enemies, and I wish the enemies couldn't spawn right up next to you. Otherwise, just some balance tweaks to make it slightly more responsive.
But otherwise, I like the aesthetics, and the roguelike upgrades are really cool!

Slice & DiceWent full stars, amazing polish there! Really neat rogue mechanics!
My only feedback is that I wished when pop-up choice they don't accept select instantly because I select things without realizing it sometimes, amazing job anyway! ^^

Dice FolksAmazing game mechanics and graphics work. The aesthetic really sells it here, and you really pulled off a polished-feeling game. Hypnotizing and what not.
Off-screen enemies were still rather annoying for a while, but I had a good time. Well done.

The Dice DutyIncredible, how you did game with this visuals and music in 48 hours. It plays amazing fun!

Dice RevengeThe feel of the game is on top. Other than one bug (the last 2 enemies were out of screen I can not kill them so level stuck) this game is very solid. Well done!

Roll the PatternHa. I'm looking forward to all the "dice themed" games that don't actually use rolled dice for random number generation. This is peak absurdity taking itself very seriously. Nicely done.
As usual, you have a great neon aesthetic. The game looks really nice but there were a few small QoL things. The screen shake was a bit overdone, I didn't realize there were damage numbers until like the 4th round (they were too small and the same color as all the flashing lights!), and the health bar often covered up enemies.
I think the biggest drawback was that enemies could fire at you from off-screen. In my second round, there were two offscreen that I couldn't get for much longer than seemed reasonable lol.
Overall though, I enjoyed my time with this. It's weird and colorful and audio design works really well, too. Great job! Keep making games!

WispsVery great visuals! Camera shakes are a bit too excessive, and I cannot focus on an enemy when it's shaking so much.

Sushi To Gothis was a very fun game, but it had what seemed to be an exponential difficulty curve which isnt very good.
Submitted
Shifting SumVery nice experience, but enemies where outside of camera, and cannot win

Dicey HellReally polished experience! Hard to know how to start the game but fun once you get going.

Dice CasterMy eyes hurt but man this game is awesome! So awesome in fact that the game crashed because of the sheer chaos on the screen lol

Dicefunctional DefendersReally liked the presentation - this guy shaders! 🤩 I have waited for the first wave to spawn... until I noticed the gray text in the corner. Might help other players in case the game "isn't starting" - just press enter.
Nice entry!
