Here are my thoughts after playing your game:

  • I wonder if the combo system is the best it could be. The dice behaves deterministically, with it just counting up. This leads me to believe that the player is supposed to time the pressing so they can get a combo. If that’s the idea, I have two issues with it. Firstly, you can only press space when the dice is touching the ground, making it hard to time the number on the dice with touching the ground. Secondly, it can be hard to read what the dice says when it’s spinning so fast. Maybe just have a number that doesn’t rotate?

Still, the game was pretty fun. I agree if bfulche’s comments as well.

Hey, thanks for trying out.

The combo system was a thing that was added at the last moment, so it's not a very fleshed out one. Other ideas was a combo system that keeps going up with each timed landing, but the collision behavior was rather fast and tricky.

Still, I've tried to make it happen that it usually lands on the same number if it's at an average jump, maybe it's an idea to land faster once you can time the jump. But I've yet to figure that out

I like the added particle effects, it might be cool to have some more verticality in the placement of your platforms.
