How does your game fit the theme?
Dice Raiders roll onto the screen and when you attack them, your attack depends on the side of the die you aim for. Gameplay is a ‘roll of the dice’ because you have to knock off dice at such a fast rate that you end up having to react to your own attacks as if they were randomized.

Great feel, great presentation!! Great fun!

Submitted

What a lovely game, this was so much fun to play. Everything about it is awesome, great entry!

Submitted

Really nice! The feeling of throwing those dice into the void is so great! The fact that your power depends on the dice allow some great improvisation! Good job :) 

Submitted

The juice omg it's so juicy

I suppose you are aware about this but it's actually pretty hard to actually check what face I'm hitting, I can't really strategize with it

I had a lot of fun, good job

Submitted

Really fun to play! I love how satisfying it was to knock those boys off the field.

Developer

hahaha thank you! I appreciate you playing it!

Feedback: There could be a better indicator that you got damaged or a health bar


Fun to play with for a bit, my high score was 70.

Submitted

Love the character design, great game

Submitted

Nice! Really like the quirky dice hats and all the ways of booting them all into the void!

Developer

Hah, glad you enjoyed the hats. Thanks for the comment!

Submitted

Great game and awesome idea to change the attack for each side of the dice.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Some music could have helped a lot, but the gameplay is really good.

Developer

Yeah, wouldve been cool to add some nice 8-bit action music. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for playing.

Submitted

By far one of my favourite games ive played - great idea, great execution, great gameplay.

Only improvement would be an indicator of the number currently hovering.

Developer

Thanks so much for the compliments! And yeah, that's a great suggestion.

Submitted

game is very fun, i like the retro style 3d models, and to hookshot into the dice. also that death sfx is just *chef kiss*.

Developer

Wow, thanks so much!

Submitted

I had a lot of fun playing this one. It’s a bit tough to keep track of what weapon you’ll use in the middle of the action. Good presentation and nice, crunchy feel. Good work.

Developer

Glad you had fun and liked the juice. And yeah, thanks for the feedback about the chaos of it all. In retrospect, I think slowing the game down more might have enabled more strategic play.

Submitted

Interesting mechanic, I had yet to see someone go "against" the dice, instead of using them as an object. Also throwing them out is really satisfying, good job!

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Submitted

Very fun game, and great theme interpretation, the only thing missing is the music. GREAT WORK

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Loved the hookshot - grappling hooks make all games better!

Developer

Yes, it's a known fact that grapple hook = good game. Thanks for playing + commenting!

Submitted

The viking hats! It's a fun take on the theme :)

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Very fun and polished game based on a simple and strong idea!


Maybe the click spamming strategy it's a little bit too powerful, but overall very good job! :D

Developer

I agree, when the game gets chaotic spamming is basically the best strategy, which makes the game less interesting. Glad you liked it anyways!

Really dynamic and it feels great to throw all this dices away. 

I don't think you can pay much attention to which face to aim for since all are attacks anyway and it's not really readable in the middle of the action. Maybe if the faces had different colors it would have been clearer ?

Developer(+1)

That's a very cool suggestion to improve the readability. We definitely were struggling to find a balance between chaos and strategy, and colors on the dice might help improve both aspects. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

Fun game, I really liked it!

Developer

Thanks!
