Wow! Your game is very nice. The graphics are beautiful, a great viriety of enemies, the visual feedback for the player is usually good.
There could be just some more feedback when getting damaged (a little screenshake maybe). And it is hard to hit the enemies sometimes lol
Thanks for the game!
We appear to have made somewhat similar games.
I like your graphics and that the enemies very clearly have distinct behavior from each other.
Cool pixel artstyle and idea. The only thing that I missed were sound effects.
I liked the idea and the art but the combat felt way too fast and the aiming felt a little off. Maybe that was sort of on purpose to be random?
The quality of the presentation and enjoyability of this game are just astonishing. The pixel art is really amazing... Outstanding work!
Really cool game I think it would be cool to have his "ammo" full when respawning
Very very pretty and creative! The idea of using the dice as either attacks or supportive abilities was really pleasant. and the graphics were downright gorgeous. nicely done! I just wish there was more feedback on hit, in addition the difficulty gets too high, and because the enemy bullets are too fast you cant just 'touhou' the enemy bullets all that easily. Still fun though!
Really liked the experience. great work!!
I just miss some feedback on the dice effects and the game is a bit hard 😥
Good game with great presentation! I felt that there was not a lot of feedback regarding what was happening during gameplay. Perhaps more visual or audio indicators would have been helpful for knowing when I was taking damage, dealing damage, getting buffed/debuffed, etc. That being said, you were able to create an impressive amount in the limited given time, very well done!
good game! It was very beautiful and pleasant to play, congrats.
if you have any time, I would really appreciate your opinion on my game!
I like the game, the art-style in particular, and I think it's a nice execution overall. The only feedback I have is that your dice recharge way too slow to keep up with a room full of enemies.

Really liked the graphics, animations and presentation, although it would have been nice with some juicy sound effects! :D
The core mechanic is also very interesting, but consider maybe making the player have fewer dices to throw but much more powerful ones.
Since it was so fast-paced fighting enemies, you kinda just begin spamming the dices as you have to deal with enemies quick and the side effects of not hitting are minor and doesn't feel like they impact you too much.
Still though great game, really liked it!
Phew. Hard ^^ A very interesting idea many had. Using dice to attack but rolling them to buff yourself is something I didn't came across all to often. It was well made yet the enemies are at times too fast for me to avoid. With more developement this can be a very good roguelike/roguelite game. 3/4/5.
Stay crunchy.
Cute game, but the hits need to have some more impact. Its incredibly jar to just be instantly teleported back a few rooms out of nowhere.
The different dices give a lot of varations on how to clear a room. Unfortunately, most of the time I only had one dice in my inventory, which makes shooting very slow compared to movement. I understood that a dice can spawn when an enemy is defeated. And a dice can give buffs if it doesn't hit an enemy. But the small rooms didn't make it easy for me to collect those dices. Still, i enjoyed this game. Good job!
God damn the art looks good! A few things:
- The dice sometimes seem to be shooting not where i aim
- The time to get new dice seems to be too slow? I was having to wait a lot of the time
Good game
The dice do in fact not necessarily go exactly where you aim, they have a random spread that's intentional.
It's also intentional that the dice recover on their own fairly slowly, encouraging you to pick up the dice dropped by enemies.
Of course, this still needs some tweaking since we didn't have much time to test it.
Thx for the feedback!
