Dec 21 04:19:00 Leave me Alone!!! Fun times, Ariel. I think you did a great job given your limited time.
Dec 21 04:25:00 6m 00s Friend Excellent work, I thought it was fun and overall well done. The graphics were top notch, and the puzzles were overall well designed.
Dec 21 04:37:00 12m 00s Minicraft Well, it's good, but not amazing. I got bored with it after a few minutes because I felt like it wasn't clear what I should be doing. I continued running around and killing things etc. but wasn't really getting anywhere and had no idea where the wizard chap was. So I just eventually quit out of boredom. Lots to like here, though.
Dec 21 04:43:00 6m 00s Lost in the Woods Well, I got a few screens in but wasn't sure how to get past the pit. I got a flashlight and crate of apples. Having a restart is really really important for a game like this when you get suddenly killed by random stuff. And, no offense, but the game is UGLY. Why is it blurred some of the way and pixel-y other parts? Can't make up its mind.
Jan 9 23:00:00 474h 17m Alone Decent, but all agreed the lack of scrolling is a real issue. Then when I finally realized how it works the rest of the game was pretty boring.
Jan 9 23:07:00 7m 00s Isolated Assault Pretty good, but got old relatively quickly. I agree there was little point to fighting anything, especially because there seemed to be issues with enemies getting hit a lot of the time.
Jan 9 23:12:00 5m 00s In the Ruins of R'lyeh This was pretty good, but I felt the unique control scheme actually got in the way. It was basically Sokoban with a weird sort of gravity movement that often caused me to overshoot hallways and the like and kept me from doing what I actually wanted to. I found myself wishing the controls were just normal.
Jan 9 23:16:00 4m 00s Leaf me Alone You got so much done in 48 hours, it was very impressive. However, I couldn't remember all the different things I could do because there were so many instructions, so I found myself mostly just throwing rocks. Still, good overall.
Jan 9 23:39:00 23m 00s sQared Great overall, but desperately needs a minimap. I couldn't complete the game because eventually I just wasn't sure where I was. Also the body swapping was very cool but I never saw any payoff from doing it, nor did talking to various characters as other characters do anything, etc. So all that aside and it was a confusing maze that seemed like it was almost awesome.
Jan 9 23:41:00 2m 00s Last Stand Unfortunately on Mac OS X I see only a white screen. No errors in the console.
Jan 9 23:52:00 11m 00s You Don't Need To Be Alone I mostly felt like I was on rails in a very strange half-drawn story I didn't understand. It seemed like half the time I would choose a conversation option and then the game would simply continue however it wanted to, unrelated to my choice. The stat system similarly made no sense to me - I was just choosing stuff to watch how the movie would progress. Also, how does this match the theme? Is it a dating game or something?
Jan 9 23:55:00 3m 00s BraveWorker Uh, so... it's a maze generator, that isn't even that good. The meta game on the outside didn't progressed before I got bored with solving endless mazes (I had done 6) so I didn't get to see what would happen there, if anything. I feel like I must be missing something.
Jan 9 23:57:00 2m 00s 'malone? Loading, oh no retry.
Jan 10 00:01:00 4m 00s I Wish the Theme was Kittens I was excited at first because I thought you did a great job of having a lack of tutorial. But then I flew around space for 2 minutes, finally found a UfO that does nothing, and then quit. Basically just a pretty scavenger hunt. Why not put in kittens?
Jan 10 00:02:00 1m 00s Can't Even Apologise Why are Python developers so against creating binaries? I do not have pygame installed.
Jan 10 00:04:00 2m 00s STAY ALONE OR DIE There was nobody else logged in, so no one to play with. But... it seemed boring anyway. A great start, for sure, but there's nothing to do at this point.
Jan 10 00:08:00 4m 00s Alone with Robots Seems like you could have made different choices for the same amount of time and effort to make this much better. For example, instead of having colored squares, make them look like something so it's clear what's the thing and what's the direction. Got bored after 15 consecutive and it still wasn't speeding up really.
Jan 10 00:11:00 3m 00s Forever Alone - The End of Colors So close! I have Snow Leopard. Can you upload a version for older OSes?
Jan 10 00:16:00 5m 00s ZED Survivor Decent, but could have been a lot better. I found the controls annoying (only being able to move in a single direction) and I forgot that you needed to press X to pick up items rather than just walking into them - so everything just seemed like background to me. The biggest problem, though, is that I never got hit after 6 minutes of play, even with only the worst gun. Needs more difficulty for sure.
Jan 10 00:22:00 6m 00s Va Unan Pretty good, but there were two huge problems that stopped me from enjoying what appears to be a great game. The first was the massive novel that I was forced to read at one sentence per hour (okay that's an exaggeration :-P) upon opening. I've got 700 games to play, man! Let me actually play your game? Show that text while I can move around if you really need it. The second was lag. The game went incredibly slowly, the guy twitching along painfully with each movement. I have quite a fast computer, but perhaps it was an incompatibility? Mac OS X Safari.
Jan 10 00:28:00 6m 00s Dying Alone The biggest issue as others have observed is the difficulty. If the game had checkpoints or lives or something similar, it would be great. As it stands, I quickly got tired of repeating the same bit of level over and over.
Jan 10 00:29:00 1m 00s Erased Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:29:00 0s Leave Me Alone Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:39:00 10m 00s One Of A Kind 148mb?!?! Is that really necessary? At least your host is fast... When it was finally done, though, it was quite fun. The puzzles were overall pretty good and the mechanic was fairly unique. The style was great. I got bored after a little while but I generally don't like these types of games, so it's not just you.
Jan 10 00:40:00 1m 00s Alone with... things! Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:40:00 0s Party Quest: Never Go It Alone Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:40:00 0s Planet Earth Is Blue Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:44:00 4m 00s Alone Ozone Pretty wonderful concept, that's really what made the game. The gameplay is pretty simple and relatively enjoyable, but the whole premise of what I was doing definitely did it. :-)
Jan 10 00:50:00 6m 00s Aurea Oceanus Quite good looking and good tech involved, but the gameplay was pretty frustrating to me. There were way too many coins and also way too many sharks. I would often be eaten without knowing where the shark was, and I wasn't sure what to about it when I saw one.
Jan 10 00:50:00 0s Speed to Freedom Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:50:00 0s The Tomb Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:50:00 0s Screaming Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:51:00 1m 00s City of One Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:54:00 3m 00s YANA Any chance for an OSX / Unix version?
Jan 10 00:54:00 0s Forever Alone I pretty much feel what everyone else does - too big and too little happening. I got bored rather quickly. Also I wasn't sure really what I was doing, other than walking around and looking at junk.
Jan 10 00:58:00 4m 00s Mountain Very cool idea, but my FPS was so crap I had trouble playing. Also I'm not sure if the lighting was correct or not, but mostly I could only see black. And for some reason the particle effects of the other players' bodies was just eating my processor (whenever I looked at it). But all that being said this is a very cool concept.
Jan 10 01:00:00 2m 00s In the Dark Aziz is dead. :-O
Jan 10 01:05:00 5m 00s Lonely Adventures of Al Oneman Cool but hard to tell what was going on. Eventually the coolant was too high or something and I wasn't able to change the pressure. Poo doggy. The voice was incredibly annoying, and although I was able to turn it off it was then impossible to play. Subtitles instead?
Jan 10 01:40:00 35m 00s Crawl the Dungeon Any chance of getting this on Mac OS X / Unix?
Jan 10 01:40:00 0s Atlantic Flight ONE Any chance of getting this on Mac OS X / Unix?
Jan 10 01:40:00 0s Head South Any chance of getting this on Mac OS X / Unix?
Jan 10 01:41:00 1m 00s Kitty Crusade Any chance of getting this on Mac OS X / Unix?
Jan 10 01:41:00 0s The Best Of Us Any chance of getting this on Mac OS X / Unix?
Jan 10 01:42:00 1m 00s Lava Kittens Tried getting this to run on Mac OS X, got "cannot execute binary file", not sure if that's expected.
