In this puzzle game created for the 2022 GMTK GameJam you play as a die that can only move the amount of steps on its top in any set direction, your goal is to lead the die to the red plate.

Incredible Implementation of a pretty cool idea. 

At first, I thought it was just another platformer with a cube. But, soon I realized how wrong I was. It plays with your mind once you get the hang of it. You have to pay attention to every move. The mechanic of moving the dice according to the number on the top is a fantastic and relatively fresh idea. And the music and the sound design are really good as well. Like the fall and replay sound is very subtle but gives a proper feedback. 

Future additions can be a UI menu and a restart button. You can also work on implementing better camera angles and focus. And the ability to change camera rotation would be a nice touch.  Otherwise well-done mate. 

Miku attemps, nice. Nice relazing game! loved it

nice! glad to see another vocaloid fan? got any favorite composers?

I remember a few big name ones like Deco 27 and pinochio P i really like, but i've also some indies like aqua quilic and clean tears, they have some good albums as well. Though reaslly, i  hear a good song and i add it to my ever growing collection on youtube, heh.

this is one of many puzzle games in this Jam , yet one of the most unique games here none the less. 

i love the idea of the dice itself specifying your movement , i haven't seen any other game implement that , and it gave it that element needed for an engaging puzzle game. 

i think the game would've done better with a pause menu , maybe an option to disable music as well. but thats really complementary.

with more levels, more gimmicks (maybe a dabble into the 3rd dimension or so), and more clever design. i can see it being a paid game on steam that i would get.

Absolutely incredible game, the "ah-ha" moments in every puzzle gives a boost in serotonin. Just wish there was a super satisfying thunk noise when the cube rolls ;). Awesome job. I can't wait to see your next project!

thanks for the nice comment, yeah, compression took away our thonk, maybe I can add it back when the game jam voting time is over, maybe even a secret extra spicy thonk.
