Awesome game!
pretty game
amazing level design as always
This concept is awesome! I really hope you'll make a longer game with it :)
so cool
Love it! Absolutely love it :)
"Skip level" trick you those levels are impossible but not. Level 10 is brilliant.
Great tutorial on game rules, textbook-like puzzle design, and I really like the genius level 10. I really look forward to seeing the follow-up levels, please keep developing!
Awesome job on this, it was really fun to play! Did you really design all the levels during the game jam? It feels like you may have already had some design idea or plan going into this and then made it fit the theme. Otherwise you are really good at designing puzzle games! You should be putting out new puzzle games every other day if you can design this many levels in 48 hours!
took way too long to finish level 10 but it was fun all the way
sometimes restarting or dying skips instead.
hey there! I know of one big where falling off can skip the level. When you restart, are you sure you weren’t pressing T ?
i'm pretty sure i wasn't pressing T. though i can never be 100% sure.
level 6 is impossible. theres no way to get into any position to reach the end.
edit:nevermind
I think you should've mentioned that rolling dice isn't random. Other wise great puzzles with a simple but great idea.
This was a really cool puzzle game. Great job!
I struggle with puzzle games, especially at 1 in the morning. But this fun with a simple mechanic. Loved it!
Now that I've actually played all the way through- delightful little game, nice choice in music, great pixel art, and some suitably braintwisty puzzles! 6 & 10 were faves, but I will admit 3 stumped me for longer than it should have.
Really enjoyed the simple visuals. the game is nicely challenging
I really like the concept of the game, but the implementation of dice doesn't add anything to it, you just reroll until you get the dice you want, and it feels like it was shoehorned into a game that would work fine without it.
Great game! Super fun and pretty challenging! Very well polished as well with all of the art, sfx, and music. I'm guessing this one will definitely make it to the GMTK video!
Hi. I don't know whether it was intended but when I moved from a switch directly to an activated block, I got softlocked.
Hi there! I can't seem to replicate that bug on my computer. Do you have a fast or slow computer? I'm thinking it might be due to a faster framerate messing up the move speed
My computer has around a 120hz refresh rate so that might be it?
oh yeah that could be. I think I forgot to make concessions for super fast computers. sorry you're having those issues I'll try to have a fix as soon as the jam ends :)
I can't seem to replicate it either now so it could be something to do with the itch.io servers slowing? Nice Game BTW
No servers shouldn't have an effect. I think it could be a fluke but a couple others have mentioned that issue (Thanks btw :D)
I've also had this, but additionally managed to roll onto a activated block from two blocks away rather than just the switch issue.
Puzzles were really fun! Rolling unfortunately just felt like an obtuse way of selecting a move, though. Also loved the visuals.
I like the concept, the puzzles are challenging and when i finally do solve them, i get that aha moment. The art and music is also well done. However I think it is a little inconvenient how you can't go the previous level(Unless it was told somewhere and i missed it), and the swapping of dice process is a little tedious(Unless i also missed that somewhere). I think instead of pressing space to change dice, you can have a left and right selector, to choose between the dice easier, and make the animation shorter.
I feel that scrolling is only an increase in steps, but anyway, this is a good puzzle solving game, and I also like painting style

Wow, this has a lot of potential. Really fun puzzles. Highly recommend people give it a shot.
Fun puzzles
omg, that was amazing
mt bom goste
Nice game
Nice simple game
I love the design of the blob in the roller skate
Neat concept, I love this. It wasn't too hard and it wasn't too easy (I struggle with a few puzzles). Congrats on the submission for GTMK!
fun game! last puzzle was good (=
Duuuuuuude this game is so fantastic with masterful design and enjoyable puzzles, figuring out the last level was such a fun experience, huge props to the team.
thanks for giving it a go! I actually made everything but music and some sfx solo :D Go give the music guy some love for making his amazing work available to the public! HERE
It would be easier if you could just choose what die to use, rolling just makes the process tedious. You end up just pressing space until you get the right result, which can take a bit of time. Still a very well polished and fun puzzle game.
That was wonderful! I loved it so much. I FEEL SO SMART. Love the artwork, really polished and fun levels.
Good application of the theme, great puzzles 👌
Well thought out!
did anyone else get stuck on level 6? I think the yellow arrows are in the wrong spot
or I'm over thinking it
I'm stuck on level 6 rn lol
edit: figured it out, felt good, cool game.
Glad you were able to figure it out :D
You really do need to think outside the box for that level. It's a bit deceptive ;)
Hey there! just watched the vod of your stream. The arrow on level 6 is placed correctly. figuring out why it is placed there is the key to solving it. Thanks for the play!
damn, I guess the just gave up too easily (darn golly) now i'm going to have to go back and try again
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
It's really polished compared to other submissions like mine!
Everything is so good!
