Hey, this is a really fun game actually! The artstyle is very neat and the music + sound effect are very fitting.

Originally I wanted to share my highscore and challenge others to beat it, but after a few minutes of gameplay I somehow lost the ability to die? I believe it must have happened around the same time as the music cut out. Nontheless, my highscore is 2381 as that was the point where I had to stop playing.


I think the concept of the game is great although I think there are a few things that could be polished or improved.

- The big ? dice are very op and spawn far too many dice. Also their hitbox lingers too long after being killed. - I like the idea of the eyes on the dice being their hp, but I don't see that concept being fully used as the dice that I am shooting are random from what I understand? I think it would be nice if there were power ups that allow me to deal more damage or shoot faster. - The screen clutters with way too many enemies, way too quickly. To solve that, you could combine 2 1 dice into 1 2 dice and so on and so forth, similar to how agar io works.

I think all in all this is a fun and enjoyable game made during such a short time frame, and I also think you have created a basis for a good game if developed further.

Cheers!

Hey, I liked your game, the music fitted well and the gameplay was smooth. The idea that you have to go back to a spot where you got the enemy to reload your ammo was clever. However I felt like the dice theme was only really present in the theming and not that much in the gameplay. I noticed one bug, where for some reason I stopped taking damage. Nevertheless, great effort! You completed the game jam and have a fun functioning game to show for it!

I like the black and white aesthetic! With a bit more polish it could be really great
