| Dec 19 06:04:00 | Forever alone Simulator 2012 | Baaaaaallllllinnng | |
| Dec 19 06:18:00 | 14m 00s | Craequ | Great game. I didn't finish it (assuming that's possible), but I played for a little while. The room-moving concept is pretty cool, and I was surprised at how quickly I figured it out. <br/> <br/>Great audio and visuals too, really solid. |
| Dec 19 06:26:00 | 8m 00s | Alone In Space | Pretty fun. I kinda wish there were enemies or something else to do, I ended up just holding the arrow keys and tapping f a lot. Cool idea though, really like the minimap and the physicsy feel to the whole thing. The fireworks are also a nice touch :) |
| Dec 19 06:30:00 | 4m 00s | Long Walk Home | Pretty cool. I had a lot of fun just wandering around, but I couldn't really tell what the point was. Nice looking game, the overall style is solid. |
| Dec 19 06:38:00 | 8m 00s | Always Alone | Great game! Probably the best use of the theme I've seen so far. A nice simple mechanic executed well. The Psychotics level took forever for me to clear, hah! :) |
| Dec 19 07:01:00 | 23m 00s | 3 Missing, 4am | Really awesome. There is a *ton* of mood in this game, it reminded me a lot of playing Alan Wake (in a good way). Played it to the end, loved the generator "surprise" (at least, I thought it was surprising). |
| Dec 19 12:51:00 | 5h 50m | ROM CHECK FAIL WITHOUT A CAUSE | Entertaining, although I agree with the others that this breaks some of the jam rules (especially about bringing pre-made assets and all that). Fun, and nice way to twist it so that you're "alone". |
| Dec 19 13:29:00 | 38m 00s | Little blue box | Nice game. A little frustrating at times, but I did manage to finish it. I really liked how the platforms themselves had physics and started spinning as I jumped off them. |
| Dec 19 13:38:00 | 9m 00s | Ravenwood | Great little game. I love the style and the fact that it runs at 60fps, it feels very smooth and fluid. The "stay out of the rain" mechanic seems pretty cool, although I never really got hurt at all so I didn't even need to use it. <br/> <br/>The end was a little anti-climactic, but it was enjoyable anyway... and I found the secret place, woulda been fun if there was something to do there, hah :) |
| Dec 19 13:58:00 | 20m 00s | Never Alone Hotline | Great game. I think the writing is actually quite good, especially for a non-native speaker. Using pulsate to make the music was brilliant, it fits the game perfectly. |
| Dec 19 19:01:00 | 5h 03m | Best Friend | Great little game. Got both endings pretty quickly. <br/> <br/>I think this is a great use of the theme, most games I've seen seem to be just showing someone that's alone or lonely, but yours starts with multiple characters that *end up* alone, rather than starting alone. |
| Dec 19 19:08:00 | 7m 00s | I Wanna Be the Fishy | Was fun for a bit. The fish swim animation looks nice. I liked it at first, but it got a little too frustrating for my liking later on. The hitboxes on the enemy objects are way too big, I'd often hit something even though I was still a few pixels away from it. |
| Dec 19 19:12:00 | 4m 00s | Leave Me Alone! | Hah, bizarre game. Kinda fun for a little bit, although it never really got difficulty, just kinda kept tapping space. |
| Dec 19 19:28:00 | 16m 00s | Last breath | Fantastic game. Great intro, great atmosphere, great everything. <br/> <br/>The game did seem really hard at first, but after I realized that the shadow was me, it actually wasn't that hard at all. I just had to remember to pause in certain spots to give myself time to jump over later, etc. |
| Dec 19 19:39:00 | 11m 00s | Leave my Lettuce Alone :( | Nice game, ran great for me. I think the lettuce adds a lot to the gameplay of the game, rather than just splitting them up, you actually have to try to keep them away from the lettuce as well. The flocking mechanics are interesting, and actually seem quite believable, they really do seem like a bunch of silly flat bunnies hopping around. |
| Dec 20 01:15:00 | 5h 36m | Cirque du Seul | Really nice art, and the story is kinda fun. Not a whole ton of actual "game" here, per se, but it was still entertaining. |
| Dec 20 01:21:00 | 6m 00s | Farrokh | Great game. The art and sound are super solid. I love the super low-res 3D feel. It gives it a weird retro-yet-futuristic feel. The gameplay is really intuitive, and there are a lot of nice subtle touches, especially the way the planet loops around. |
| Dec 20 01:54:00 | 33m 00s | Nobody Wants Kitty | Nice work, a surprisingly fun game. Having to go all the way back down at the end was actually pretty tricky. |
| Dec 20 02:05:00 | 11m 00s | Abandoned | Great game Noel! Love the art, love the feel of the game and the mechanics. Once I got the feel of the grappling hooks, it felt really good. Smart puzzles too, lots of potential here. |
| Dec 20 02:23:00 | 18m 00s | Afrocity Atrocity | So... it was really pretty fun. The music is the best part imho, really sets the mood. The graphics are crazy, especially in havoc mode. My only issues are that it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the theme... and the actually "get the gem" mechanic is just frustrating rather than fun. Why not have the gem appear in the same spot every time? The way it is right now you have to be completely lucky just to see it and get to it in time. I did finally manage to get it though. |
| Dec 20 03:46:00 | 1h 23m | Puppy Shelter | Great puzzle mechanic, and the "put the dogs down" part is hilarious. Really solid game, and it ties the theme in perfectly. Sound was minimal, but even that single sound at the start of the levels really fit in. |
| Dec 20 03:52:00 | 6m 00s | TownAlone[DISTRICT 214] | Great atmosphere, and it looks really cool. I didn't really know what to do after a few minutes of exploring. |
| Dec 20 04:00:00 | 8m 00s | "Confessions of a Plumber" | Strangely enjoyable. I think I was running around town with about 20 people chasing after me. The fighting is kind of horrible (just click a lot), but the rest is fun. |
| Dec 20 04:05:00 | 5m 00s | Zombie in love must remain alone. | Absolutely gorgeous looking game, I especially love the trees, but the whole thing has tons of style. Shame there isn't more of an actual game here yet, but there's a lot of potential. |
| Dec 22 00:57:00 | 44h 52m | ZERO2 | Great art style, really fun to go through, made me wish it kept going. |
| Dec 22 01:05:00 | 8m 00s | Alone in the Crane | Great little game. I thought the mechanic was really smart. I know kibertoad said it's been done before, but seriously there are hundreds of games every LD, it's not like we can expect everyone to play all of them. <br/> <br/>The graphics are solid, the lighting is a bit weird but it's not a big deal. Really liked the textures on the blocks and the screen shake when they dropped, gave them a lot of weight. I think there's a lot more polish here than most people are seeing. |
| Dec 22 16:11:00 | 15h 06m | Step Off | Great little game. Wish it didn't take so long to get all 40 items though. |
| Dec 27 06:37:00 | 110h 26m | Final Trip Soccer | Fantastic game overall. Super impressive that this was made in only 48 hours. I found the actual gameplay a bit slow/frustrating at some points, but overall a really cool game. |
