Apr 30 03:40:00 Platonic Dot Solid Looks like an interesting game, but I got stuck at the hallway with the crushing plates. I wasn't sure what to do to get by.
Apr 30 03:45:00 5m 00s Harmonize Very cool idea. I think it would be nice if the instrument volumes were a little more pronounced compared to the background music.
Apr 30 03:54:00 9m 00s Root Route! I like the simplicity of the controls and it is an interesting mechanic I haven't seen before.
Apr 30 04:01:00 7m 00s Tic Toc Tac Toe Nice game. I don't think it needs to be easier. Tic tac toe is a solved game so there isn't a lot of challenge to get to a draw against a perfect AI.
Apr 30 04:08:00 7m 00s Orbfuscated I really liked your concept. I thought it was a little frustrating to have to reload the gun all the time. I thought it was neat to switch between a sticky bullet and a slippery bullet. The sound that the bullet makes when striking a platform was also cool.
Apr 30 04:23:00 15m 00s The Clicky Box Bundle Great game. I played this with Daft Punk playing in the background. It was a perfect fit! <br/> <br/>At first I also really wanted left/right clicking to cycle in opposite directions, but I think it would take some of the fun/danger out of the clicking too many times.
Apr 30 05:22:00 59m 00s XYZ The first time I played it I didn't understand that I was rotating 3D shapes. And if you just press WASD briefly the shape flashes and seems to rotate back to the original position. I only came back to see it a second time after another friend said it was worth checking out. <br/> <br/>Anyway - cool game and maybe there is a good shape you can find for a couple intro levels to make it easier on people that don't get it right away.
Apr 30 17:33:00 12h 11m Shaving Quest: The Razor's Edge Nice job. I like the simplicity.
Apr 30 20:04:00 2h 31m Collision Nice game. Instead of forcing people to figure out all of the mechanics I think you should have a simple not telling them to click on shapes to make them attracted to each other. They can figure out the rest from there.
Apr 30 20:27:00 23m 00s Potato Gnomes Online launch page looks cool, but I don't have anyone else online to play.
May 1 04:24:00 7h 57m simpLify Great graphics, sound, and style. Wish it was longer!
May 1 04:39:00 15m 00s MinimaLand I really liked the artwork changing when you touch it - I agree it would be nice if the white and red parts also transformed somehow.
May 1 04:48:00 9m 00s Dragenvoy Neat concept. It seemed to take a while before the tail got long enough to get in my way and then all of a sudden it swings around in my face! haha
May 1 04:55:00 7m 00s NightCap Cool twist on the shifting realities idea. My favorite part was jumping on the bird. My game features a hipster arranging furniture - maybe it is a sequel to this one - haha.
May 1 05:16:00 21m 00s Robot Meditation Nice idea. It feels a little ominous and not quite relaxing though. heh.
May 1 05:23:00 7m 00s shon I like that you just move the mouse around and don't even have to click.
May 1 05:27:00 4m 00s minimalism This is one of the best uses of minimal game components while still having an interesting game.
May 1 06:01:00 34m 00s Tic Tactics I liked the sketch style graphics.
May 1 06:10:00 9m 00s Metahotel Very nice idea. It reminded me of those minimalist paintings.
May 4 14:48:00 80h 38m S Nice mood. The graphics are really sharp. I felt like the synthesizer music didn't match the crisp graphical layout.
May 6 05:01:00 38h 13m A Game of Numbers Nice concept. I liked the levels where you didn't have to to calculate numbers in specific orders, but instead just had to get to various target numbers to pass through gate.
May 6 05:09:00 8m 00s Bridge Crosser Cool idea to take a minimal concept and flesh it out with some fancy graphics and a bunch of obstacles. The music is pretty catchy too. One minor nitpick is that I would have liked a countdown timer at the beginning of each level instead of seeing the level but being unable to move until it says "Go".
May 6 05:17:00 8m 00s Highway 00101 Nice racing game, but I didn't really get a sense of speed while going down the road. Some markers on the side of the road might help it seem like you are going faster.
May 6 05:29:00 12m 00s DIG QUEST Deluxe: ASCII Mining Adventure Nice music. I had a hard time clicking on enemies to kill them, but I'm not sure why I should even try because you can just dig around them.
May 6 06:00:00 31m 00s Twinimalism Very nice graphics. In the game it was a little hard to focus on the characters and find where they jumped to after they teleported to a new area.
May 7 04:27:00 22h 27m Mind the Gap Great game. The simple graphics work really well. I like the relaxing music too, most action puzzles like this tend to have music that gets you more pumped up and stressed out as the game speeds up.
May 8 03:32:00 23h 05m Steve Can't Zen I like the storyline and over the top pixelated violence.
May 8 03:45:00 13m 00s Synesthesis The musical tones sound really nice. The three dimensional aspect of the puzzle was also cool. I wish there was a way to add and remove nodes in a freeplay mode.
May 8 05:04:00 1h 19m Right Side of the Road Very neat idea. I had a hard time adjusting to going up or down instead of left/right. Crashing was fun too.
May 8 06:12:00 1h 08m Gallery Excellent job and one of my favorite games so far. One nitpick though - I think the first few levels are too slow. I think you should introduce a flashing light to cover on the very first level. Also - I got stuck on the level with an 'R' where you have to get a light out of the corner - it would be nice if there was a reset button or something.
May 8 06:16:00 4m 00s Frame Aim Neat idea. Pretty good for two hours. To make it more challenging you might make it so that parallel lines always move away from each other. Otherwise it is pretty easy to just make a tiny box around the yellow one.
May 8 06:22:00 6m 00s Budget Squad Really nice and polished game as everyone is used to. It didn't seem to fully embrace the theme, but I liked playing it a lot.
May 9 16:16:00 33h 54m Frankslist Really awesome idea. The only nitpick I have is that the prices change out from underneath you. I think when you mouseover the sell/buy button that it should lock in that item's price until you make a decision. The wide variety of items was nice to see too.
May 9 16:26:00 10m 00s Minimal Run Nice idea and clean execution. The third level is kind of tricky, I think it would have been better to create a level with only a large gap to demonstrate the falling/jumping combo. Most games don't let you jump after you start falling off a platform so I didn't realize it was possible until I read the comments here.
May 9 16:41:00 15m 00s Mobius Great concept. I liked the levels where you had to do a lot of jumping across different gravity planes more than some of the other levels where you have to time your jumps to avoid the red spots.
May 10 03:06:00 10h 25m Staring Contest Very funny
May 10 17:39:00 14h 33m Pixi : The pixel that is not a square ! The flight mechanic worked really well and I liked the way you incorporated toggling RGB colors to get around obstacles. Most of the time I wanted to set an RGB to either 0 or max - so it would have been nice to have hotkeys to instantly toggle those values.
May 10 20:11:00 2h 32m Minimalism : Find the red Cube Fits well with the theme, but yeah I agree with other people that it is kind of frustrating to play! I think it might be fun if there was some type of audio feedback to let you know if you were about to fall off the platform and then add a timer so that you can't take forever on each level. Then again - that is a different game from what you built.
May 10 23:58:00 3h 47m Pivot Neat idea. I like the simplicity. Is there a way to restart a level if you get stuck?
May 11 16:46:00 16h 48m Minizator It was cool to switch between worlds. It might be nicer to see clues in the real world that indicate what changes will happen if you switch to the minimal world. Example: clouds in the real world turn into bocks in the fake world.
May 11 16:50:00 4m 00s Integrate Cool game and really clean graphics. I think you should add directions for WASD to the game itself, I couldn't figure it out until I came back and read the directions on this page.
May 13 20:44:00 51h 54m ... Very fun game. Some of the puzzles are "harder" than others, but I like that each puzzle is quick to finish once you see how to solve it.
May 13 20:50:00 6m 00s .MONDR I like the idea that you become "immune" to colors that already hit you. It might be neat if orange, purple, and green only affected you for 1/2 in each shared RGB value.
May 13 21:00:00 10m 00s The Lamp Really fun game. I died a bunch because I kept trying to shine the flashlight on monsters to see what they looked like instead of getting to the lamp. haha.
May 13 23:53:00 2h 53m Hexzilla Cool game. I think it needs hotkeys - I couldn't spend my money fast enough!
May 14 02:32:00 2h 39m Ballisto The graphics have a really neat style. So refreshing to see something that isn't pixel art!
May 18 17:33:00 111h 01m Boximalism Really cool game. I think you could provide a hint or two at the beginning about keeping boxes next to the neighbors that they like without giving away spoilers about all of the rules in the game.
