| Aug 23 01:25:00 | "It's A Bunny Story, Actually..." | That is one hella happy sun! Gameplay isn't very original, but the controls are very smooth and responsive - controlling the bunny was a breeze. Liked how you utilized various animals and creatures instead of the generic spikes and lava pits. <br/> <br/>And the music was made of epic win! :D | |
| Aug 23 04:51:00 | 3h 26m | Planetary Mission | That was awesome! A great bite-sized little game! <br/> <br/>The intro was great, at first I thought you had accidentally uploaded a partially completed debug build or something. After the game, I understood the tongue-in-cheek stats screen. ;) <br/> <br/>Audio was excellent, gameplay was solid, I finished with LITERALLY one second left so the timing was obviously very well tuned. My only complaint is that controlling the player in mid-air was a bit uncomfortable, and made some platforming sections frustrating. I got used to it though, and it didn't detract from gameplay. <br/> <br/>Great work! |
| Aug 23 04:57:00 | 6m 00s | Cave Runner | "At least you got away, I guess" ;) <br/> <br/>Enjoyed it! Seemed a little bland at first, but honestly it turned out to be a pleasant little experience. The sword-throw mechanic hugely helped out gameplay, and the number of obstacles was just right at three (fireballs, bats, blocks). <br/> <br/>A bit more explanation at the beginning would be beneficial, but overall not bad at all. I liked the game-over screen too, I'm assuming it changes depending on your results :) |
| Aug 23 20:49:00 | 15h 52m | Spiritual | Loved the story, the intro art was very good, as well as the ambient and hypnotic audio. The mechanic got a little dull after several levels, and I ended up quitting after about 7 or 8 levels - it became an excercise in patience, something Ludum Dare game rating doesn't really allow for ;) Maybe just a few too many levels. A few powerups or something to break up the monotony would help immensely. Overall, enjoyed the game quite a bit, really enjoyed the mechanic! It was neat and oddly humbling to NOT be in control of my environment. :) |
| Aug 23 20:52:00 | 3m 00s | Space Captain Iodine Escapes The Electric Death Maze (In Space) | Tile graphics weren't bad, controls were smooth and responsive. However I wasn't a fan of the buttons-don't-switch-until-you-leave-them mechanic, made the game frustrating when I'd die for what felt like no reason :/ Not bad, a little too punishing though ;) |
| Aug 23 21:45:00 | 53m 00s | Cerulean | Wow, for the simplicity of the game and mechanics I got a surprisingly good gaming experience out of that. The gameplay was captivating, even if it was so simple - I'm an explorer, I guess ;) And the post-disc-collection events were surprising and incredibly satisfactory :) Well done! |
| Aug 23 22:04:00 | 19m 00s | The Remnants | I have no idea what to do. I just click "End Turn" at the top and some dots change position. Can't figure it out :/ |
| Aug 23 23:20:00 | 1h 16m | Victory | Spooky - the haunting intro voice worked pretty nicely. Managed to crush myself with a crate in the first level, but a very nice mechanic - well implemented, well used. Smooth controls, delicious pixelly graphics, and works really well with the theme! (Double kudos for hitting escape literally and metaphorically.) <br/> <br/>Shouldn't you be doing work? ;) |
| Aug 24 00:56:00 | 1h 36m | NO ESCAPE | This game doesn't work in Chrome, seems fine in Firefox. Fitting that I just switched from Firefox to Chrome today, and a game called "No Escape" is forcing me to go back to Firefox ;) <br/> <br/>Gameplay was... Well, you made the game, you know how it is. :P Makes a nice art piece though! |
| Aug 24 01:04:00 | 8m 00s | Stranded: Episode 1 | Not bad, audio was a little loud but somehow that seemed kinda fitting. The gameplay doesn't represent the theme, but the story you've worked in there fits it nicely. Enjoyed the gameplay, simple but effective mechanic. Not bad :) |
| Aug 24 19:42:00 | 18h 38m | Trenches | Not bad! Solid mechanics, simple gameplay, nice audio. The initial moment was slightly frustrating as I tried to use the arrow keys, not WASD, which didn't work and I'd immediately die. A bit more explanation on controls would benefit this game. Well done though :) |
| Sep 3 02:01:00 | 222h 19m | McPixel | Ahhh, WUT! <br/>That's quite the special ending. Entertaining, certainly nailed the WTF aspect. Nice one, good humor :) |
| Sep 4 03:58:00 | 25h 57m | Maze Escape | Simple, yet very fun :) I managed to get through the whole thing on my first try, but I made one slightly wrong turn on the last level - the last bit was pretty hairy! <br/> <br/>I enjoyed the gameplay quite a bit, well done. A winrar is YOU ;) |
| Sep 4 04:04:00 | 6m 00s | .SHADOWS. | Well executed, I very much liked the mechanic. Got to Level 7. Never did use the "L" key to turn my light on/off, nor did I remember walls. Still, a nicely made game, add some enemies or something and I can see this being a solid horror game :) |
| Sep 12 23:50:00 | 211h 46m | Escape from Dr. Evilface's Maze | The art and audio are pretty solid, but the gameplay is OBSCENELY difficult ;) The controls scheme's a little odd, arrow keys + mouse are uncomfortable if your mouse is one the right side of your keyboard, I'd suggest making WASD also work for movement. <br/>Also, enemies were far too tough to kill at 5 shots, just 1 would be fine. <br/>Once again though, the graphics and animations were great, and the experience was pretty humorous and pleasant :) Not bad, just needs some controls and gameplay tuning! <3 |
