I just wanted to say, this one was one of my favourites. I loved the simplicity of the puzzle style, and the graphics worked out really well. I felt like I was playing an actual board game.

Really good submission, The fact that you could challenge your friends with scores made a huge impact on this game and I fear without it, would not be worth a second play. Graphics are simple yet effective, sounds are repetitive but fun. Well done! Keep it up.

This was a simple idea but also a challenge, it was very fun to play. The graphics were simple but cute and well done. I thought it fit the theme perfect but was also unique, and an idea I would never think of. My personal favorite so far!

I want to play these dices on real life hahah! Good game, hard to accomplish a good score. The kind of game that you learn that is definitely easier keeping you family along with you :)

Real fun game. I like the concept. Just one thing tho, it can be a bit difficult to see where the blocks will land.

-> Need to add a skill check that allows me to make decisions that make me feel successful when I perform them right

-> Add dust bellowing out and create more impact on hitting the ground
-> Have impact effects and or sounds when pushing stuff.
-> Add force to your pushes and wind up to help general movement feel good

-> Not alot of feedback
-> feel completely out of control on if I can be successful I don't feel like I actually have an impact on my success
-> Maybe have other family members represent lives and switch to them so it's not an instant loss condition

On point with the theme, graphically looking great, to me it has a finished look to it. There was no physics glitches during the course of the game, props to that. It is a game that you can play for a long time. Good job!

I like the core concept of this, and it was satisfying to figure out I could push the aliens thru other blocks, but I ended up getting too frustrated because I couldn't tell where the aliens were going to land so I kept dying to blocks I never say coming.

Nice game, its a simple idea but works well and can be quite a challenge. Well Done :smile:

Not bad. I like the main concept and how the game physics play a huge part on overall perception. Laconic and well putted. My main concern was game “randomness”, a lot of the time viruses just fall right on your head with little time to react. Overall, good job.

Nice physics usage, but i feel that there are no things to do in a late game, just pray and wait for the end.

Simple game done well. Looked great too! Music was a bit repetitive towards the beginning of the track and, as it restarts when you die, you end up listening to the same part over and over.

Simple but very interesting gameplay mechanic with tons of variations. Sound and mood of the game are also great!

Fun game! I liked being at the mercy of the physics. I feel like it'd be neat if there was more incentive to guard the family. Like perhaps they grant powerups?

Really wanted to try this, but no HTML 5 or Mac version available.
