Nice little game!
Liked the cute 3D models and a lot of dice effects. Wished to have more enemy types. The dice upgrade menu should've probably had some input timeout, as I constantly chose random effects because mashing the mouse button too much 😅

It's an interesting little game, but I didn't like it as much as some of the other "dice shooter" games in this jam. The game could really use more audio-visual feedback for a few things. I couldn't tell when I was taking damage, and damaging the enemies didn't feel impactful. The upgrades pop-up being unpredictable and sudden got in the way a bit, with one time I clicked an option on accident because I was trying to fire another die. The game is certainly impressive, and I can tell a lot of work went into it, but I just think it needed a little more polish.

love the aesthetics. simple mechanics but i enjoyed it especially after upgrading my dice several times. an in-game tutorial or a better ui  could help. it would be interesting to see more enemy variations but this is a good start for a game. good job!

Very nice game, unfortunetly no settings and tutorial. Music was great but it was too laud. Nice gameplay but tutorial would be nice, and something that tells you that explosions do damage to player :)

Great submission! The effects and upgrades make it very fun to play. I would love to see more rounds with more enemies introduced or a survival mode. Adding some variety to the arena could make it feel less bland and more engaging to play.
