I really like the fast-paced gameplay. Having to look at the pc's screens to find out on which icon you have to go without much time is really cool. The art style is super cool and this is the only game of this kind I've seen in this jam.

Those were some really unique mechanics, and they worked very well! I loved the fast-paced strategy feel of the game, particularly on harder difficulties, where I had to check the faces on the enemies, scan the board for the best matches, weigh up if being damaged was worth it, all in the space of a few seconds - it led to some great gameplay where mistakes weren't too punishing and strategic thinking paid off, so that was excellent to see! I'm also very grateful for the easier difficulty, it made understanding the game at first much easier when I had time to think a bit more. The aesthetics and graphics of the game looked great, and I loved the readability; thanks for not only making each symbol a different colour, but a different shape too! It made reading things at a glance way easier. It was also very cool to see the enemies' damage types shown on their faces, rather than just some UI feature, I love elegant little features like that. And the sound effects were also very well done, especially the little tick when a second passed, and the music was a good fit considering the pace of the game. I really loved the idea for this game, and how it was excecuted, so well done!

ChancemancerReally nice game, fun once you get the hang of it, maybe as a patch change the back button from something that isn't escape cause that also takes you out of fullscreen

The SIX sided BOSSInteresting game. I like the presentation, sounds, music. I need to try other difficulties, because medium was pretty hard for me. :D

Live or DiceAn very interesting idea for a game! It took me a while to fully understand what was going on, but once I did, I was having quite a bit of fun! The music and sound effects are pretty good too.
I'd have loved to see some kind of level system or small narrative of some kind due, though I can definitely understand that as mostly a solo dev, that's a hard ask. But I just wanna know why there's two massive TV heads hurting me! Why am I a cute wizard? So many interesting things I wanna know more about! :)

Kick DicerI love the artstyle and dice roll board but i wish the grid was presented straight-on, my brain had a harder time finding the rows and columns but that might have been by design.
i will also note that in my case i only thought u could move 1 tile at first and i didnt even realize the tvs had the elements on their heads, i think i was just overwhelmed at first with the time limit and all the rows/columns.

No Time to Dice 🎲I really liked this game!! The presentation is amazing, and the concept is unique and well-executed. Took me a minute to realize I could move more than one square though, lol. Regardless, the game is really good, just like last year's! Stellar job!!!
