Nice idea!
Like the switch on it, not only shooting, but adding or subtracting, maybe tricky at first but pretty enjoyable!
Good Job!
Cool idea, maybe a bit hard.. but it some times stuck even when its 4 :3
Good job, keep it up :3
Game combines quick thinking with fast action gameplay - really fun!
I had a lot of fun playing this. It's quite challenging but the dash helps getting out of a difficult situation.
I really like the design choice that enemies don't immediately die on 4, so that if you end up making a mistake and shooting them again they get back to the fight. That made it much more interesting that just spamming keys.
I think it needs some tuning in terms of enemy speed but the concept is good and it's a 48h jam after all.
Good job!
Very creative, almost feels like a frantic math quiz :D
The most I got was 55.
Pretty unique, being able to adjust the pips on the enemies, then needing to adjust it to the right number.
Very cool game. The art is cool and the sound effects are great. Theres a problem where you can accually dash through the invisible wall and then youre stuck untill you dash back into the map but its a rather minor problem so anyway well done.
Yup, that's a known issue. We had fixed it but it didn't get into the final build due to time :( Thanks for playing though!
Grombar & Bear, thank you so much for letting me play! Great concept and a lot of fun once I figured out what to do. A tutorial would def help make things a lot smoother to understand what's happening right away. The main character was designed nicely and I like the animations but the rest of the art felt a bit inconsistent/ not really a solidified art style. Great game overall :D
very fun.
litle bit short.
very understandable (relative to other games).
22 point :).
Nice, the precision needed once the screen is filled with enemies to not accidentally hit the wrong dice is a good time. Loved the audio, both the music and the bitcrushed voice clips. Good stuff!
Hah- nice mechanic well presented :)
A bit more variety would be cool - but even those two-types kept me on my feet so!
What a cool and enjoyable game! Quite hard at the start but once I got the hang of it, the bugs started falling ...
Nice usage of the theme, it is central to the game and well used.
This game was fun to play! I thought you balanced the speed things moved (enemies, player, projectiles) well so when I died I felt it was my fault and wanted to do better rather than blaming the game. If any thing I felt needing to get the single dies to 4 felt a little random? Could be cool if they had a random number assigned to them you had to get them to. Just a thought, fun game overall though! Good work
Thanks so much! <3
Specifically the Kill Number for the mites was 4 because that's a homonym for "death" in Chinese and Japanese.
Oh interesting! I learned something today thank you
Fun action game!
What I liked?
- The global ambiance, it gave me Arcade game vibes
- The intense action, no time to rest, it was pretty fun
- The lower and increase mechanic to eliminate the enemies
Other comments:
- The sound volume was a bit too loud, especially the music
- I had troubles to aim properly at first, but I found out that the right stick is the input to aim, so I think that it would be nice to have this information in the description
Overall good job!
Loved the unique raising/lowering number mechanics - tickled the math guy in me. The voice line at the start of each game is incredibly charming too. Given more development time, it would be cool to see more enemy types with different number interactions.
Really cool game! The gameplay is fun, the music is cool, and the animations and art are really cool, i like that style a lot! Very neet game, well done!
Had lots of fun with this one! There were a couple of lulls early on when just one enemy at a time attacked, but it did pick back up. The animation and music were incredibly well done too and added a lot to the fun!
Really nice idea! The music and gameplay were fun too... Amazing job!
I love the attention to detail in the animations, from the player appearing and their death animation to the idle animation having a version for facing any side, to the crushing of the enemies. It all looks so good! The sound design is also great, it really reminds me of those old arcade games and the sound of the enemies screeching as they charge towards you if you mess up is wonderfully horrifying. Super cool entry!
