Aug 26 02:46:00 Don't let Them Hug you! Jezus Christ this game is terrifying in its abstraction. Great entry!
Aug 27 08:36:00 29h 50m GIMP the Tapedeck-Operated Robot Rage inducing frustratingly challenging controls. But losing is fun, so it's a quality in itself. :) <br/> <br/>It works really well with a touchpad too. <br/> <br/>Great polish all around. The soundtrack is especially nice!
Aug 27 08:42:00 6m 00s 10 seconds of Hell I keep getting a black screen... Stupid Intel HD card :(
Aug 27 09:02:00 20m 00s Highway Hero Great gameplay mechanic, very well done with the theme!
Aug 27 09:11:00 9m 00s The Lonely Sentry Short and sweet :) <br/> <br/>Love the sound, graphics are so-so but not jarring - like the exhaust effect in particular though, and the way the sentry moved gave it a real sense of weight so that's pretty well done. Plus, the ending was very cute. <br/> <br/>Also, great controls - just the right amount of accelleration, inertia and stuff to not be frustrating, but still challenging to control. As far as "lander" type games go, that's pretty hard to get right in my experience, so great job there!
Aug 27 09:13:00 2m 00s Captain Timewarp I echo what the other said: the controls felt too floaty, but the gameplay idea has potential. Try and tweak it for a non-compo version, I'd love to give a more polished version another try!
Aug 27 09:22:00 9m 00s TenSecWep I'd love to give this a try, but I think your version of GameMaker doesn't play nice with either Window 8 or my Intel HD card, so all the spirtes seem glitch out and it doesn't really start :( <br/> <br/>Sound design sounds nice though, for the little part that I can hear of it :).
Aug 27 13:39:00 4h 17m Step Out The atmosphere is fantastic, pace feels a bit sluggish (even when taking into account that this is a "slow" relaxed game) but otherwise the gameplay is fun, and the mechanic is cool too, although it would be fun if I could possess more things (like the trees of the scenery, just to make the leaves rustle a bit for example).
Aug 27 13:56:00 17m 00s The Lost Robos I second what dom2d said - great work. The ten second limit is both a fun addition and a huge stressfactor :D
Aug 27 14:03:00 7m 00s Apotheosis Wrapping your head around the time mechanic takes a bit of, well, time, but it's a lot of fun just figuring it out. Great graphics and sound too. I do echo the comments that the aiming could be clearer.
Aug 27 14:23:00 20m 00s Fire, Fire, Burning Bright Got the same problem (and computer setup, no surprisingly) as Jajay :(. So all I can really say is that the sprites look nice and that the concept sounds good.
Aug 27 14:33:00 10m 00s Gone in 10 Seconds First laugh out loud game I've played so far - fantastically silly writing. <br/> <br/>Also, one hilarious bug/feature: walk to the left into the door, jump up.
Aug 27 14:45:00 12m 00s Last Energy I want to try it out but it refuses to run... Win 8 64 bit. I have Love2d installed. <br/> <br/>Hmm.. wait, I'll try compiling it myself :)
Aug 27 14:54:00 9m 00s TIMEBUG Solid graphics, sounds and controls, but I feel like there were too little consequences to just bumping your way through. A bit more challenging puzzle elements based on the gameplay mechanic you chose would have been nice :)
Aug 27 19:56:00 5h 02m The theft of the magic potato It's like a real-time version of Gobliins. It's a bit hard to figure out how to plan everything, but I almost solved the puzzle I think... <br/> <br/>I managed to piss off the bull, now to get the potato.
Aug 28 09:29:00 13h 33m Count by Tap Sorry, don't have android. Would have tried your game otherwise!
Aug 28 10:35:00 1h 06m Boxer's Seconds An honest to goodness "sleuthing" game - very nice, and quite an original take on the theme!
Aug 28 10:46:00 11m 00s ShuffleLand Adorable graphics, simple to control. Overal a very fun little puzzle game :)
Aug 28 11:04:00 18m 00s God of Cat Food My kittens keep flying into space! How can I feed them when they fly off without me! :( <br/> <br/>Fun silly game :)
Aug 28 11:09:00 5m 00s 10 Seconds to Lava ===== SPOILERS ======= <br/> <br/>Love how you fall off into an infinite void if you try to walk towards the end.
Aug 28 11:33:00 24m 00s Domino Dare I love sandbox games. Great little coffeebreak challenge. <br/> <br/>PS: 120. Tip: inverted pyramid.
Aug 29 10:49:00 23h 16m Time Flies Straight My absolute favourite of the compo so far (followed by gone in ten seconds).
Sep 3 13:22:00 122h 33m Hyper Furball Adorable graphics and fun music, great little "button mashing" RPG.
