Suuper fun and addicting game !! I found myself playing this one for a while and a well polished game too :)) Good stuff overall :D
Loved the idea of winning by dodging, without any active attacks! Art is super-cute too
Absolutely superb! Wonderful set of mechanics that fit the theme perfectly, and the distinctions between requirements for each attack (holding, double tap, combos etc.) led to everything feeling distinct enough that even when positions switched around I'd got the association down between image and input. Felt just really good to play :)
The difficulty was dialed in perfectly for me - by the time I got to the final stage things were tense but never overwhelming. Was very grateful for the checkpoints when I fucked it up though!
The music is an absolute bop that I could happily listen to over and over.
And those puns were just amazing I love them I love them
So so good!
I didn't expect the game to actually become tricky at a point, but it did in a fun way. Good job!
I actually really liked the presentation, mechanics, and overall concept... The game was actually very fun to play. Great job!
I didn't understand why I couldn't attack, but then I got the game name :D Very cool mechanic as well as variety of actions and bosses. I love it :)
Very clever gameplay !! Well done this is really funny :)
A lot of variation is present on this game. I love it a lot! The mechanics are also well executed and fun. Great job on this <3
Surprising amount of variety. Game is a way more fun that I expected at the first glance!
Well done!
Greatly creative and well put together! I found the balance worked extremely well with the introduction of new boss mechanics on each level. I would personally make it so that the hit timer stops when it recognizes that you're holding down a key (for the third die) to avoid damaging a player for not acting early enough, since that's how the other moves work.
Hah- that was a lot of fun, and surprising amount of variety :)
I found it pretty well balanced - although for some reason I found move swapping especially brutal; pretty much my main cause of death!
This is really charming – good look and feel! The way the main mechanic unfolds is really nice. Once you're layering up the different abilities with the dice switching, you've got a really satisfying rhythm-based game going on. I really like it! And the puns are great, naturally.
I really had a lot of fun and had to smile a little because the combination of combat and reaction was really well done. The theme is well captured too and overall I think the quest is one of the best I've played to date!
Really good presentation ;-) and unique idea so far :D
I especially enjoyed the different enemy names :D
This is such a cool game! I like how it changes the controls every so often
