Very unique concept, I have never seen killer roman numerals before

cool idea! A little hard, but overall it's simple and cool <3

Very cool concept, I also liked art style and music/sfx. With some progression I could see myself playing this for some time!

It builds up super quickly but still good fun! I do wish there was some life system because my foolish brain kept dying at like 20 😭

i kinda wish i could skip levels just to get a glimpse at how hard later numbers can be but i still had a good time with my <20 scores lol

I am going to hate the Roman Numeral V until the end of my days.

This was an enjoyable experience. Really fun and interesting premise.

The gameplay was really fun as well, combined with great sound design and visually nice art style. Really liked individuality of different numeral letters. Though I hated the V.

I would I think love to jump straight back into the game after losing. The death screen and the delayed start is my least liked part, as I would love to just jump straight back into the game - which is a great thing.

I had a highscore of 24 after like 12-13 runs, which is fairly decent enough.

Overall I loved it - great premise and an awesome and enjoyable game. Great Work!

Played, died immediately. Played again, died again. Played some more and found myself moving to the beat of the music, which let me get to 41 before the L homed in on me! It's good simple fun, and the variance in movement between letters was awesome

A very simple, but fun, little mechanic. Well done :)

Oh man, I love this type of quirk game, absolutely killer job and I love concept!

If I could add a couple of suggestions, spawning the later numerals around the parameter instead of just at the top might add a nice challenge curve later.

Simple, but very satisfying when you get the rhythm of dodging down.
