Interesting idea, feels maybe a bit too hard (the die moves a bit too slowly and bad things come a bit too quickly, and it took a while for me to remember which color was which) and I'm not sure I like using my touchpad to control it (unless there are keyboard controls that I missed?).
Really addicting game, just wish the points counter didn't max out at 999 haha. I love the music and style too, it gives off old arcade kinda game which I really enjoy. Great work! :)
Oh thanks a lot for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^ im glad you liked it ^_^
The 999 cap was just like a limit for the text place holder but i agree it would be nicer to go further
Really fun arcade game! Found this one really addictive, though very hard. Nice work :)

Nice game! Fun and simple, the music absolutely carries it.
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
Very cool idea that was simple and easy to understand!

Phew, these snakes are bastards.. it took me awhile to understand that colors represents + - x / (ps, i hate math) .. but once I got it i made my 999 hehe..
cool game, as folks said, it would be cool on mobile. it got a bit easy once i figured out how things go, so considering adding hardness would be good.
Really like the vibes, Good luck dude! ^^

Totally agree, difficulty progress is a must :)
Nice game! I got 0 points! (that evil snake)

That snake made many upset so far including me lol
Fun game, could be a nice base for further development. It gave me cool math games vibes

Show post...
The concept is unique. I think it would be phenomenal if it is on mobile.
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
This is the plan ;)
pretty enjoyable game!
it gets a bit too easy once you get the hang of it though
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
Totally agree, somehow the game need to increase and change the difficulty with time.
I love it!
A few tweaks that could make it a full game
Genuinely one of my favorites so far, super creative, nice soundtrack, simple but clear graphics, great job!
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
I totally agree about the colors
Feedback is a must to have, thanks for the suggestions i will add these for sure
Thanks ^_^
Nice game, it's hard to keep a score high, but it's fun, thanks!
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
I agree it might need some balancing of course :)
It's a challenge but it's still fun!
Game looks really nice but it seems like the score is capped at 999? I got to that score and then found that no more dice would come down. Also if I hold my dice off the screen it stops my number from hitting the dice that lowers my score. Still quite fun!

The 999 cap is the highest score limit ... the main idea was to reach the highest score and keep it for 60sec ... maybe it would be nicer to go further.
Oh good catch about the screen border! will be fixed in future updates! thanks!
Nice music but a bit dull and it loops over at 999?
Hey thanks for putting time to test the game and write feedback ^_^
Unfortunately we didn't had time to make an original specific music for this game, maybe in future.

It's fun. I think the multiplication and division colors are a bit too similar but it works well nonetheless. Why did you choose to cap the score at 999 though? It would be cool to go further.

Hey! thank you for checking my game, here some info
What does the name means?
Zaar o Maar (means Dice & Snake in Kurdish language) which is the name of the famous board game (Snake & Ladders) we took the name literary and put the dice against each others and against the snake!
How to play?
You are a dice who try to collect the highest score before the 60sec timer! you will face 4 dices with colors (Blue is addition, Red is subtraction, Orange is multiplication, Yellow is division) , you will also face the snake! careful as it will bite you back to score 1!
we wish you like this early access of our idea, we appreciate your feedback and rating, also don't forget to post your highest score below ^_^
