This was a cool concept. I really liked that the die faces had different powers, it made for some interesting puzzles.  I really could have used some way of telling what the die faces on at least one of the other sides (then I'd have complete information about the die instead of having to guess/remember what's on the left and right sides from past attempts)

Developer

Yeah we wanted to add some sort of UI helper for the hidden faces of the die, but we just never got around to it. Thanks for playing.

Pretty solid game, with a mechanic that's been used before, but implemented in a quite original way and goes well with the levels. I really liked the atmosphere, even though the art is simple. Maybe a bit more indicators would have helped with some of your abilities, took me a while to figure out how to use them effectively. Also, the puzzles can be bruteforced, therefore I think it might go stale later on, unless new mechanics or content are introduced.

Really cool puzzle concept! Music would be a good addition, but nice work overall!

What sets this one apart from the other rolling puzzles games, is the top face gives a special ability which adds a good level of variety to the puzzles

it was a smart puzzle game, I liked different abilities on different sides. and that every ability uses different points.

Really nice puzzle game. I really enjoy my time solving it. It's really clever that you use numbers like stamina. Keep up good work

Really fun and polished game! Some music would have been nice, though. I also think the abilities should have been triggered with just one button, as you can only use one at any given time. Nice work overall :)

Nice twist on a common concept for this jam. I like glowy stuff so the presentation was really nice for me. Feels really polished. Lack a bit of music. Overall a very good entry. Loved it.

Nice game! I think different ability sets for each level would be an interesting addition.

Developer

We actually built in the functionality for different sets, but we ended up throwing together most of the levels fairly last minute so we didn't have a ton of time to think about what kind of set would be good for each level. One idea we also actually had was to be able to equip the abilities into different slots yourself.
