WOW, JUST WOW. THE OVERALL FEEL OF THE GAME IS IMMACULATE AND ALSO YOU SHOULD ADD SOME HOTKEYS. OTHER THAN THAT WOW, JUST WOW!
It would be nice to have some hotkeys for moving dice or something similar as it became tedious to move them. Also it would be nice to show where you can't hit a die anymore as that is the lose zone. Had a dice go near the cannon that I couldn't shoot when I got the die. I really did like the concept though and it was fun to try and plan out the moves with the current dice. I like that you could shoot through the matching dice as it allowed to strategize a bit more. Also subtracting same valued dice gives a 1 out instead of no dice
Yeah a main thing we're working on is to smooth out the dragging system to reduce frustration (increasing dice size, making snapping dice into place more forgiving, etc). Thanks for checking out the game!
it took some time to figure out the control and turned out the the game is pretty unique and provide truly immersive experience!
I really love this one!)
Very creative idea for a game, a unique interpretation of the theme for sure. I didn't realize how to play at first, but when I got the hang of it I had fun.
I like the idea and the dice math! Really neat, and the cover image got me lol love it
It was kinda fun, and I liked the dice math - but the clicking-and-dragging is pretty awkward to use.
Your thumbnail gets bonus points for asking so politely :)
I created a 6 and loaded it into the cannon but pressing space scrolled by browser window instead of shooting. How can I fix this? Then I can give it another try.
this is mostly an issue with browser games, I think you just have to click onto the game again so it registers you are playing.
fun :D
fun game. my little brother really learned a lot about adding and subtracting.
The presentation isn't quite all there, but the gameplay is very good and the concept is creative. Definitely consider giving this a bit of polish, it has great potential!
Enjoyable, the visuals are lacking and I really do think some sound effects would really give it some nice oomph, but the gameplay is enticing and has an interesting rhythm. With enough polish I could really imagine myself having fun with it on Coolmath games.
Thanks for the feedback! I agree that we forgoed a lot of the polish and visuals in favor of gameplay (mostly due to a lack of skill and time constraints). Hopefully we can spruce things up after the jam ends.
quite fun ngl
very good game this game deserves to win
