Puzzles are good, and I like the twist on the Bloxorz-likes by having this global movement constraint. At first I thought it was a glitch and I started "abusing" it, but then re-read the rules and saw it was a mechanic and thought it was pretty neat haha

0_0 how did u know about the global constraint it was actually a bug as i used bevy to code the game. I didnt find a way for global rotations and just turned the bug into a feature lol. Thanks for playing!

I like the graphics and the aestethic. And the isometric view is great (although sometimes the platforms got in the way of the ground a bit so it was hard to see how many squares there are between me and the goal).

I wonder why you made the decision to reset the die to 1 when moving sideways? It makes the game a bit too easy and less complex than it could have been.

i thought resetting it to 1 would make the game more unique although it does make it more easier. Thanks for giving feedback!

Cool Game! Loved the graphics, but felt very easy.. idk if I was just lucky, but it felt like every puzzle was designed so that the player just had to follow the path and they would get the right number

thanks for playing! Yeah i mean with the current design that is a limitation but i was hoping it would be harder to discover the paths though.Anyway thanks for honest feedback

I really like the idea! I especially liked the "resetting to 1" thing, because it didn't overcomplicate the puzzles and still forced you to try around with how to rotate the die! The sounds and visuals are really pleasing too, so great job!

thank u so much for the kind words the resetting to 1 thing was actually a bug that i turned into a feature lol.

My game froze on the 3rd level right before I reached the end, unfortunately. I was a bit confused at first when I saw that my dice were resetting when moving horizontally, but then I figured it out. This is actually quite a simple game!

thanks! I dont really know why it freezes although i do have a theory that i would love if you could test out. Could it be you accidentally went out of focus on the window? if it freezes can you click on the window again and see if it works? thanks! Also am i allowed to fix bugs in this jam?
