Very fun game, you feel like an overpowered god. Though it takes a while to understand the UI.

Neat game. My only issue is just that I couldn't really figure out when the abilities were changing lol

Super nice looking game with very smooth controls! Enjoyed it a lot :)

My only feedback would be that I think there should be a clearer indication for what the action you are about to perform entails. Like UI stuff on the mouse/player which indicate what type of attack you are about to perform because I struggled deciphering what the different dice sides meant.

Thank you! Yeah, now that I think about it it might be difficult to know what spell you're about to do, especially going into it for the first time. Putting an indicator near the mouse sounds like a great idea.

A lot of different spell combinations, especailly for 48hrs. It was fun to play but I could progress much beyond button mashing as I couldn't read the dice (i.e. remember the number code).
