Interesting way of making a game fit this theme... I like it though! For some reason the level 1 button doesn't work for me, and I also find it kind of weird that there are no limits for the paddle to stop going off the screen. Nice game though!

Submitted

This game is fun, but I think, the different dice could have different effects when hit (If there was something like that, I missed it). The rolling animation and sound on the other hand were nice. It felt a bit menacing to hear a wave of dice roll towards me.

1.if you didnt finish level 1, don't make the button

2.what does the dice do? just a dice looked brick?

Submitted

A fun brick breaker game with the theme! As others mentioned, the ball was a bit too slow, which made things hard... But its still a fun game! NJ

Like the combo of space invaders and breakout! sometimes the dice overlap with each other

I liked the rolling animation on the dices and the influence of them on the game. The paddle could have been a bit faster and more sound and particle effects for different things happening in game.

Submitted

The effect of the dice rolling and filling the screen was great!

But maybe the ball could be a little faster? 

At times, it seemed to move too slow.

Difficult to play but I love how intimidating the effect of the dice rolling was. I think in these types of games you want to make the player feel epic so making the ball fast paced definitely goes a long way and maybe even having multiple of them on screen at once. However, solid base to a game here.

Well done for submitting.

Neat brick breaker. It needs a little polish but the sound of increasing dice rolling towards you is intimidating. Small bug: the dice overlap sometimes. Would love to see this game further developed with new mechanics and levels. Good job

I get the idea, I've seen games similar to this. The ball physics definitely needs a lot of work. It felt way too hard to control and as result, this game is actually quite hard. I think increasing the speed the ball moves at would be a start, but some sort of changes to increase the control you have over the ball would be very beneficial I think.

Submitted

Neat arcanoid idea, but the ball physics... could really use some work. You can barely control it!

Submitted

I like the dice rolling sounds. Would love if hitting particular dice would maybe blow up that many dice around them or something. Overall good job!

Submitted

Interesting concept! Brick Break meets Space Invaders.

I think expanding on this idea could make something really fun. Maybe having shooting like Space Invaders, but instead of shooting the enemies, you shoot the ball to bounce it around.

Submitted

Nice take on the theme!

Really cool game (would have been better tho if ya fixed some bugs)

Submitted

Old ideas never die :)

It would have been nice to put dice with different speeds depending on the color to give more variety to the gameplay.

Submitted

Nice game, would have been fun to have a highscore increment over time!

why is the dice moving sound panned all the way to the left, it hurts. nice graphics tho

Submitted(+1)

still a bit rough, but nice take on a classic :) cool idea to animate the dice, maybe their facing should have an effect on the gameplay
