This is a simple yet very pollished game, theres potential here for a proper casual mobile game, nice job.
P.S please try my game
Really enjoyed the different attacks patterns pretty entertaining if you can add some SFX later can be really good for mobile!
Very fun game! i really liked the variety of shots and the different mechanics of each enemy. After reaching 100k score the amount of enemies became insane and it was really cool. I didn't quite understand what was needed for it to happen, but when two shots of different numbers came out at the same time, it was really good. Signed, Danieru & Gama
wow congrats on the 200k! as someone who likes getting highscores I'm really happy to see someone also went for it in my game!
The double attack occurs during a Mania which happens when you kill enough enemies it only has a short duration but can last longer if you kill more enemies during it, you can see the progress of the mania around the border of the battle box which I see now isnt very obvious. It also makes enemies spawn more and moving/attacking quicker. Originally I intend for it to fire an upgraded version of the attack but didnt have enough time to design 6 new attacks so it just additionally fires the attack of the next die face.
Liked the game and got 6th place too.........
rated ur game buddy , hope so you will rate us as well .
It's funny, a good take on the theme. I liked it. I tried to simplify the gameplay as much as possible by spamming a bunch of weapons, but it's not that easy, since it's better to throw projectiles toward the enemy, and it's better to move the player (the dice) in the opposite direction, all with just the mouse. The abilities are hidden behind the numbers on the dice, but they're well-related, making them easy and quick to remember. I liked the minimalist neon graphics.
There must be a real leaderboard.
This is a banger. Clean visuals and addicting gameplay. It is a little difficult and I kept confusing when I was going to move and when I was going to attack whenever an enemy bullet was closing in. What each face of the die does is not explained anywhere so it took a couple tries to get the graps of how each attack works like. You could still update the game page to at least include these instructions. I would also recommend using all the black empty space on the left hand side to add maybe a reminder in-game. And you can also add the itch.io full screen button since the gameplay area is relatively small.
The attacks of each face not being explained is an intentional decision, I just thought it was cleaner that way and reduces the reading that the player has to do before playing, each attack is made to be simple and relate to the die face so that the attacks could be easy to learn and remember. I didnt know what to add to the left which is why its blank, I think ill just move the score combo and health there in the future. And I usually have the fullscreen button but this game didnt have it because the playgama bs doesnt have it (or maybe i just didnt find it).
Edit: I didnt know itch has a fullscreen button thx for telling me! I usually just use the fullscreen builtin to unity
Nice concept of game man... We rated your game and now it's your turn to rate us
The game mechanics are quite enjoyable! great concept, well done!
Incredible mechanics, really creative! Purple color fits the game perfectly, also I think one of the best theme implementations.
Super fun game that implemented the theme really well!
bit confusing how to play but concept is original!
Fun game! really cool concept that uses the theme well. very creative
Simple style and control and both are really cool! I will come back to play for sure.
Hey, this was such an addicting game! Love the simple art style too I replayed it like 10 times because every time I tried writing my name in the leaderboard the game restarted. However it was a great experience, I missed some sound effects but overall it was a great experience! :D
oops I forgot to remove my restart debug hotkey lol, thanks for pointing that out!
