Apr 23 15:44:00 Nom Nom? Generally I love the concept to eat smaller things which at the same time makes us get bigger. I just wish there was something more to it in this game.
Apr 25 17:19:00 49h 35m Soul Searchin' I freaking love the concept! As @KevinZuhn however said, there was quite a lot of collision problems. Deep inside I was hoping that Benjamin would get pancaked when enlarging in a small corridor :D That'd be even more fun. Emm ... I mean, entertaining. Damn, it still sounds like I'm a kind of a sadist. Ah well. <br/> <br/>Great job mate!
Apr 25 17:42:00 23m 00s Attack of the Space Fruit It took me few tries to find out why I was losing at the very beginning for no apparent reason. Even half of a second would do it, to see where we have the Earth. Also, the collision system is glitchy. Many times hitting a fruit would end up with a fruit being on the other side of a moon and thus killing me. The idea itself is good, but where is *tiny* world? All I see is extremely large I suppose ;)
Apr 25 20:58:00 3h 16m Quantum Entanglement I love the music in the background and graphics!
Apr 26 14:36:00 17h 38m Nematode Great idea! It only needs a little tutorial for the very beginning though, I needed quite a time to figure out what was going on. It was fun until I needed a one-dot-worm which simply was not on the board. What am I supposed to do then? Apart from that - that is a good one! Cheers
Apr 26 14:52:00 16m 00s The Dream Sequencer I've got Windows XP. Yup, the EXE doesn't work at all. That's a shame, because I liked the screenshots and was eager to test the game. <br/> <br/>I've listened through the soundtracks though and the Inside.ogg is really my kind! You recorded it yourself, didn't you? I wish I could play guitar, I really like the sound. Cheers!
Apr 26 15:31:00 39m 00s Godly I didn't hear the music as well.
Apr 27 19:05:00 27h 34m Planet Waves Yeah, like the others already have said - it shouldn't rely that much on luck. Other than that - it's a material for a good game.
Apr 27 20:48:00 1h 43m [Darkness Creeping] It is a really unique entry, I must say. The greatest issue though in my opinion is glitchy collision system. Examples: <br/> <br/>1. I've found the first key. I felt really confused afterwards after gadding with my cockroach something about 10 minutes. I had to find a light source and something was telling me it had to do something with the crystal in another cell. After another 5 minutes in that cell my cockroach ... fell under the floor only to find the crystal item laying there with him as well. That annoyed my quite a bit. <br/> <br/>2. After resetting and picking up a crystal, I went down a dark corridor with a crystal in my hand. I approached to the yellow key. I was really surprised since I couldn't pick it up. That was confusing as well. Soon I found out the ... ceiling was missing and I was floating in mid air. Turns out that when I was 'recovering from a fall', I clipped through the ceiling. Well, since I had no clue how to get down I simply walked to the yellow door and hovered over it like nothing ever happened until the ending screen appeared. <br/> <br/>Still, I am really amazed you made a 3D game in so little time, though it doesn't make it more playable on the other hand. I didn't find the falling down mechanic irritating at all and the mood you created was just lovely, I like such eerie atmosphere! <br/> <br/>Hope it helped and the game will get another fix soon, because it really is a good game, there's no doubt about that. Cheers!
Apr 29 10:44:00 37h 56m Bactarium I'm pretty sure that's not what the game should look like: <br/>http://i.imgur.com/fPiZV.jpg <br/>... so I'll refrain from rating Graphics for now. But other than that, it's neat.
May 2 10:00:00 71h 16m MakHappy Like people have said already - the window is too small, and the watermark is a little disturbing. If that happened to ever change - it would make the game ... perfect. Good job on making it! I rarely find myself smiling on a gameplay and these NPCs were adorable! Cheers, and yet another exclamation mark!
May 3 16:42:00 30h 42m Dude, where's my planet I love the idea of the 'jumping' technique. The graphics are astonishing! I just wish the background music wasn't restarting every single time I die. From what I see it's quite long and during my normal play-through I'm not ever going to listen to the whole piece.
May 10 14:09:00 165h 27m Atomsmash I'm yet another person who simply couldn't go past the title screen. I see a lot of people who have succeded at running a game. Any hints guys? Please?
May 10 18:38:00 4h 29m This Precious Land Oh boy, that's the most time I've ever spent on LD entry. I just had to unlock all of the possible tiles! Amazing execution. <br/> <br/>However I don't quite understand how does regrowing trees work exactly. When surrounded by water, the stomp regrows once and that's it. Maybe I have to replace the water ...
May 10 18:59:00 21m 00s My Little Planetoid Neat idea. If only the sectors of the planetoid didn't block ( I couldn't plant buildings on them ), the scrolling wasn't so annoying and HUD was a bit clearer, it'd be quite a good game I suppose.
May 10 21:04:00 2h 05m Circus Flea Truly made me laugh! Amazing idea, voice acting and visuals. <br/> <br/>Sadly it's really unbalanced. If someone wants to play this game legit, he'll brake his fingers. If he wants to cheat - well, he'll break the fingers anyways. Mashing all of the arrow keys rapidly *is* enough to pass every level in a game. I couldn't get past Stage 16 in Challenge Mode only because my hands couldn't make it on time ;) <br/> <br/>Cheers!
May 12 14:46:00 41h 42m Nineties Holywood Hacker After restarting the player's got 0 health and the number of coins retains. Also, sometimes enemies spawn just where the player spawns, who subsequently loses a life. Instantly. That's just mean. Butoverall the game itself is great, I love the blend. I loved it until I saw this ... <br/> <br/>http://imgur.com/FSAcA <br/> <br/>No, really?! If that was mean, how should I call this one? Come on.
May 13 20:44:00 29h 58m Hamster Bowling This ... is ... awesome! Gorgeous! Marvelous! Magnificent! And I'm not ironic! Especially the song at the very end! <br/> <br/>@tfendall, could you please, please please make a ***transcription of the lyrics*** of the credits song? I gave it a try, here it is: <br/> <br/>=== http://pastebin.com/r2a0kkm6 === <br/> <br/>Could someone help me with correcting the text? I'm pretty sure everyone will surely appreciate that as well! I will not get rid of this tune out of my head for a long time ...
