this is a very unique take on the theme and has a lot of room for more additions. looking forward to see where this could possibly go after the jam!

Really nice game ! Fun to play, maybe add more present ambiance music ?
Really love the take on dice combat that y'all did here. The 3D dice integrate perfectly with the art style and I found myself trying to to roll certain dice so I could use their special power. I think with a dash or some movement option, I would have liked the game even more as I found myself walking a little slowly from die to die. Great job!
Cool concept! I wish the core gameplay of smashing the dice felt better and that I had more player choice. I'm unsure about how much strategy there actually is, or if you just keep smashing until you eventually get something ok. Visuals were awesome. Great job!
so cute! I really liked that the enemies weren't actually your enemy but the timer was instead! very cool game!
i enjoyed playing this game quite a lot.
more visual effects would've been very cool
im having some issue to roll this dice on this game, but it still a good game.
I had some fun with this, but I think the game over-timer might not be necessary. Together with the somewhat frequent occurance of not being able to flip the dice in one smash, it lead to some frustration.
That said, I did end up playing it for a while! The pixels are lovely as well!
Once I understood what I was trying to accomplish, I really got in to this. I was originally smashing the attack key rapidly instead of charging it up... After I sorted that out, then I was hooked. This game deeeeefintely needs more abilities (as you've already suggested on the game's page). One question I had was "Do the scene matter at all?" -- it seems as though I take no damage and there aren't really any hurdles in my way physically.
aaaaaany way... This is a really cool game. Thanks for making it!
Haha, this was a lot of fun. It's super satisfying, and I REALLY enjoyed the art, as simple as it was! Love that 3-dimensional 2D stuff. Really cool! Only thing I'd say is that you should make the bounds a bit taller, because I had a die fly over it and get lost!
Ground pounch has some serious juice on it :D Dice flying everywhere!
The idea of hitting the ground to roll the dice is cool. I like the mix of the 2D game with the 3D style dice.
