Perfection with the sound quality on the voices. Always down for a boomer shooter. Wish I new about being able to hit the dice in air a bit earlier in the game but other than that I had a good time.
I love the sense of humor so much! and the combat is so much fun!
surprisingly fun and addicting! I liked the NPCS (the delivery of their voicelines was really funny) and the dice throwing mechanic. I think having crosshairs on the screen might help with aiming (especially with the button in the cave), but otherwise it feels really fun to play just as is (controls feel great). With a bit more polish and variety in mechanics, I could easily see it expanding!
To be honest at first I did not think much of this game by just looking at the screenshots, but I was wrong. The game IS fun and it IS beatifull. I judged a book by its cover here. The game makes me feel like I am playing a game that can evolve into a longer more content-packed game
Goodjob and I would love a sequel or continuation of this project!
Nice game, maybe there could be a bit more variety in the enemies and the way you attack them. The movement could be improved a bit. Hitting the dice back was a nice mechanic, but a bit inconsistent. I like that you implemented characters with dialogue and walls that open up. I somehow lost my dice at some point so i couldn't attack anymore.
Short but fun bit of adventure, the betrayal at the end was really heart breaking.
Never expected that I would get hooked into the game, but before I knew it, I finished it :D
Congrats on finishing the jam !
I feel like some work to the controls must be done, to make it more responsive and pleasant to the player. But what already done is already something. Keep it up!
The ability to hit the dice mid air is a pretty cool mechanic. It would be nice if we could influence the outcome of each dice roll in some way, in it's current state we just hope we randomly hit the correct number.
The voice acting is phenomenal, it was almost like I was talking to uncle-misterious-astronot in real life. I would give him every voice acting related award there is if I wasn't confined to this text box.
It's dangerous outside take this dice
Love the grand pa dialogs
Great game!
really nice take on theme, damn that prophet betrayed me , that red button was too difficult to activate , also you could increase the speed of dice when it is returning , because I was trying to dodge enemies but dice speed and my speed was equal so it was not returning to me, I had to stop for a while for it to return, otherwise it's a nice concept, had fun playing it
If you try hit the dice while in the air after each hit its going much more faster and longer. Thanks for playing ^^
This is some good silly fun, WITH some good game mechanics on top! Excellent work on this!!!
Perfect voice acting !
I like a lot the fact that you can hit the dice to reattack faster, I'm proud I discovered it before the princess told me :)
I wish the attacks could be a bit faster, you spend quite a lot of time waiting for your dice to come back. But other than that, that's a cool game, well done !
The voice acting is awesome!
I am not a big fan of the fighting mechanic, because it essentially means "mash that left mouse button". It also took me a bit to figure out that I can hit the die again while it was in the air.
What I found super interesting though was the fact that you can throw the dice off your wand and it follows then back to you.
That's a really cool mechanic, which I think could be extended on, as it wasn't really made use of here.
Really nice game!
I like the old graphic style and the dice throwing mechanic is really fun to play with!
Great job!
I like the ps1 era graphics you are going for, there is a lot of polish to be done, but it's a good start. Some improvements I would have is first of all to be able to recall the dice faster after you throw it and also I couldn't push the button to open the door in the cave, if there was some kind of mechanic for that I didn't understand it.
You need to hit the dice while turning back to you. By doing this you can throw your dice much more longer. So if you hit couple times you can reach the button.
Thanks for playing I hope you like it ^^
Hitting the dice in the air was so satisfying. The dubs were hilarious! I enjoyed it, keep it up!
Very well theme application. Nice Dubs XD. Game of the year
Hearing the old man made me laugh out loud
Unfortunately the combat isn't engaging, basically running around the enemies waiting for the correct numbers.
Still I enjoyed this for what it was.
Good job on your game!
Really nice concept and when you understand how to hit the in air it feel nice. Seslendirmelere de bittim abi. Elinize Saglik :D
Really ambitious to make a 3d game with voice acting for a jam. Well done!
thanks for playing I even added voice acting for both language :D
