Dec 18 14:26:00		Bertie the Butcher	Funny how this game shares a lot of features with mine, but we still took a very different approach to gameplay :) <br/> <br/>Nice graphics and easy to understand gameplay. <br/>The guards seem to glitch (when coming into contact with blood?) and disappear momentarily though.
Dec 18 14:35:00	9m 00s	Scary Chicken	Creative use of the theme. Graphics are nice and there is sound, so no complaints there :) <br/> <br/>Jumping feels a bit floaty which makes hitting platforms perhaps harder than it should be.
Dec 18 14:47:00	12m 00s	Grim's Christmas List	Basic working mechanics, floaty jumping. Nice enough graphics and the enemy patterns bring a bit of liveliness to the proceedings. <br/> <br/>The collision with the people feels a bit random and the level transistion is extremely abrupt, but those are the only complaints I can think of :)
Dec 18 20:34:00	5h 47m	Super Paper Monster Smasher	Lovely cover art pumped the mood nicely. <br/>The game looks and sounds quite nice. <br/> <br/>Gameplay is a bit too shallow to be interesting.
Dec 18 20:36:00	2m 00s	The Legend of Destiny	This was funny, not a game, but funny :D
Dec 18 20:54:00	18m 00s	Super Agent Run	Nice visuals, the wall jumping feels a bit random here and there, took me a while to figure out the down arrow thing too. <br/> <br/>I especially liked visualizing the countdown with the troops moving in the background layer, nice touch.
Dec 18 21:06:00	12m 00s	A Froggy Day in London Town	A reversal on a familiar game. The visuals are fun, didn't hear any sounds though. What could make this better, would be to have an indicator what type the next car will be. Now with the random speeds it feels more like a luck, rather than a skill game.
Dec 18 22:02:00	56m 00s	Airship Infiltration	Graphics are nice and there is some pleasent effort in the transistions from the start screen and between levels. <br/> <br/>The controls and jumping could've used some more tuning I think. <br/>Also I didn't really feel like a villain as such, maybe the objectives should be more about plundering treasure etc.?
Dec 18 22:14:00	12m 00s	Aliens from outer space!	I liked background music and there are some nice visual touches here too. <br/> <br/>The physics of the controls - in particular how your space invader slides around - were a bit off putting. <br/> <br/>Also there is not really very much to the gameplay (but then again, is there in space invaders either?).
Dec 18 22:21:00	7m 00s	BOTWALK	Very polished graphics, a nice original idea, good effects work. <br/>Controls feel a bit buggy at times and gameplay is a bit simple for how detailed the environment is :)
Dec 18 23:28:00	1h 07m	Lil Assassin	Good on you to acknowledge the issue with the gfx in your post :) Gameplay was actually very good and I enjoyed it, had there been sound I would've rated it higher.
Dec 18 23:33:00	5m 00s	Peasant Smasher	The concept is nice and basic controls work okay. <br/>I think the issues are mostly in presentation eg. I'd like there to be more visual feedback from destroying things. <br/> <br/>Audio would've been nice too.
Dec 19 06:43:00	7h 10m	Centipede 2013	It is interesting to see how different classics work reversed. This one works pretty well.
Dec 19 06:50:00	7m 00s	Do Not Help The Princess	Nice presentation. The well done animations give individual character to both the knights and the monsters and it feels like your choices matter, which is good. <br/> <br/>Perhaps some long range units or more varied terrain would enhance the gameplay a bit more.
Dec 19 06:59:00	9m 00s	Tower Attack	Graphics are nice. The turrets do seem to nearly always hit the units and having little control over anything makes the gameplay a bit too simplistics. <br/> <br/>Also it would be nice if you could win the game :D
Dec 19 07:08:00	9m 00s	Unleashed	Great idea :) This was fun and well made, I like the varied attacks and the minimap is a great addition. <br/>Some music would've been nice though.
Dec 19 07:12:00	4m 00s	You are the hero	Lovely looking game (apart from the glitches). The combat feels nice enough and I'm liking the minimalist sound approach.
Dec 19 23:11:00	15h 59m	'Goat, give me back my clothes !'	Very weird game. Original funny visual style, strange collisions.
Dec 19 23:14:00	3m 00s	A Villain Monster	Very nice visual effects which unfortunately come with a huge performance penalty, I got around 9fps average. <br/> <br/>Game mechanic is interesting and the controls do work quite well. Shame for the lack of audio.
Dec 19 23:21:00	7m 00s	Bag a Bride	Very good graphics and lots of fun touches. <br/>Overall lags for me and the bag throwing seems very unresponsive with mouse control.
Dec 19 23:28:00	7m 00s	A Villain's Demise	Excellent visuals as I'm sure has been stated many times before. <br/> <br/>Gameplay is quite punishing and the jumping feels a bit inprecise either due to physics or gfx not cueing exactly where the platforms should be. <br/> <br/>Per rules didn't rate music, but I'm fine with the minimalist wind, suits the game. Bigger minus is the lack of any sound effects.
Dec 19 23:33:00	5m 00s	Chainsaw Happines	Mechanic gets a bit repetitive and there is not really much to do apart from killing bunnies. Music and graphics are functional.
Dec 19 23:36:00	3m 00s	Dastardly Fiend	Graphics look very nice, I like the animation details. Gameplay is very simple. I find it a bit frustrating though that sometimes clicking the flame trap will register for the pinball paddles instead, kind of ruining the intended fast reactions gameplay.
Dec 19 23:46:00	10m 00s	Dungeon Mastermind	Hard to rate this game. Presentation is excellent, UI works nice and information in terms of the monsters and traps is very clear. However the information as to the actual game objective is a bit obscure and you have to read the description on the ld page a few times to get what is going on.
Dec 20 00:01:00	15m 00s	Elfie	Impressive rich environment with a lot going on without too much slowdown, very nice. <br/>The mouse wiggling mechanic does get old really fast, just give us good old button for some candy-cane-to-the-face action :D <br/> <br/>Also there doesn't seem to be any larger objective at play, which is a shame. <br/>Anyhow solid impressive work on the presentation
Dec 20 14:25:00	14h 24m	Destroy All Heroes	Excellent graphics and seems to play pretty solid too. Liking the speech bubbles and other little touches. <br/> <br/>Gameplays has issues in being a bit too hard and simplistics, some sort of secondary mechanic to shooting would've been nice. Also no audio is a shame in such a nice looking game.
Dec 20 21:19:00	6h 54m	Super Natural Habitat Destroyer	Excellent character design, the title screen looks very attractive and interesting. Gameplay has some problems, the mouse control just makes you want this to be a keyboard/gamepad controlled game and the combat also feels less than what it could be. <br/> <br/>With some gameplay rethinks and balances there are assets here to make a very nice game :)
Dec 20 21:34:00	15m 00s	The Best of Me	Nice setup for what could be an interesting story. The stealth ability is visualized very nicely. Unfortunately there in also lies a problem, the ability saps so quickly I found it extremely hard to pass the guards an it made give up eventually. Little more difficulty tweaking and I'm sure it would be a lovely game.
Dec 20 21:46:00	12m 00s	Woodcut Ted	Good solid controls, I like the fact you need to avoid the falling trees, it is a nice secondary mechanic. <br/> <br/>Simple and everything works well, solid entry.
Dec 20 21:51:00	5m 00s	braaaaaiinsss...	Controls work well so the jumping is quite fun. Oddly though if I run fast the framerate starts to drop a lot, but calms down if I move slower. Something is generated on the fly and not quite keeping up I guess?
Dec 20 22:15:00	24m 00s	Clowns Vs. Bunnies	Very simple tower defense game. That said, I do like the theme and generally the game has a nice mood about it. <br/> <br/>Music is also very good.
Dec 20 22:53:00	38m 00s	Corruption	Nice concept, nicely done graphics. Gameplay is a bit simple, though amusing :)
Dec 20 22:58:00	5m 00s	Joe, the bad jack! (HTML5)	3rd lumberjack-themed game I've come across, I guess they must be evil :D <br/>Gameplay is very entertaining and satisfying. Graphics are ok and sound effects too. The only thing lacking is some good fighting music.
Dec 20 23:03:00	5m 00s	Minion #4	Very glitchy movement for some reason. Graphical style is ok, and the text exposition creates interest in what is going on.
Dec 20 23:59:00	56m 00s	Robogoat	My goat flew far..far away :D <br/>Well, I like the goat, the controls are very glitchy.
Dec 21 00:29:00	30m 00s	Universe's Next Top Villain	Very entertaining, played this a good while :) <br/>The music and cheesy gameshow dialogue are both spot on and the combinations and death images are very fun and creative. Great job.
Dec 21 00:34:00	5m 00s	Evil Rover	Nice song, nice goat :D Not happened in that game.
Dec 21 00:51:00	17m 00s	Attack of the Crimson Plumber	Worked well enough. Visuals are crisp and easy to understand. <br/>Level design could do with some improvements, some of the traps are positioned so that the invaders are hardly affected by them.
Dec 21 00:59:00	8m 00s	Super realistic meteor simulator	Score 2270. <br/>Very creative approach and kind of engaging to play. <br/>Music is extremely repetitive but somehow it went with the mood :D This had somehow a very good feeling apocalypse to it.
Dec 22 09:47:00	32h 48m	Evil Solitaire	Interesting mechanic, actually works quite well. <br/>The difficulty seems to be pretty punishing :)
Dec 22 09:59:00	12m 00s	They All Fall Down	Simple clever concept with lots of possibilities, I like it :) <br/>Visuals are fine, the soundtrack gets a bit aggravating after a while, but that is pretty much the only problem for me.
