I feel like the bar for the dodge should change color to let you know when it's ready, but other than that it's awesome.

Developer

yeah that's a good idea, we could have provided a  bit more visual feedback on the controls . Thanks for playing !!

I really liked this game. Although the it could have used a little more SFX, it was a fun and creative game. I was so happy when I won! Good luck!

Developer

Fun game! Feels a bit weird to play on a pool table and just destroy the pool balls instead of knocking them in, but it's interesting. I like the music, but some sound effects would have been nice.

Developer

Yes we wanted to make it distinct enough from a "normal" pool game. The sound effects are a huge shame though you're right, we ran out of time ... thanks a lot for the feedback and your time :)

it was very smooth, which made it pleasing to go around with the attacks.

Developer

Thanks a lot for taking the time to play and give feedback :)

There could have been some more sounds. But besides that I really enjoyed it.

Good job!

Developer

That's true, we'll keep it in mind. Thanks for playing !

Nice game, I especially liked the tunes! The mechanics are quite interesting, with each side having separate health. Didn't read the description, but there seems to be more powerful dashes as well. Not sure whether it was indicated in game or not. I guess the the dash cooldown could have been faster generally, with power it could increase.

Good job!

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback ! Unfortunately we didn't really have the time for an in game tutorial, but yeah that probably was necessary

loved the boss fight, cool game

Developer

Thanks for playing !! What did you think of the difficulty level ? 

Submitted

This is a really clever game, great concept, and though it took me a minute to catch on, I loved the way the pool table acts as the UI showing the dice face health and levels! Only problem I found was the dash seems to have a bit of a delay on activation / sometimes misses inputs maybe. Had a lot of fun with this one!

Developer

Great to hear, thanks for the feedback ! There may indeed be a few bugs left in the dashing, sorry about that. I think the dash reload bar maybe also should have been a bit faster.

Brilliant thoughts on how to upgrade the 6 sides! It takes me some time, but I enjoyed it after I fully understand the system. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for taking the time to try it  :)

Really enjoyed the movement, by the time I got to winning it felt seamless to dodge and react to the balls.

Developer

Awesome ! Thanks for the feedback

Developer

Thanks ! And thanks for playing :)

Love the music! Interesting mechanics, but I really didn't get it :D even with reading the instructions.

The dash animation and splash screen is awesome

Developer
