| Dec 16 13:08:00 | Leap of Faith | Really enjoyed this. I like how you worked the virtual reality into the story rather than just using it as an excuse for simple graphics. At its core the game is just fun. Levels could use more variety and visuals/audio could be prettier, but for 48 hours this is awesome. | |
| Dec 16 14:12:00 | 1h 04m | Love, Bullet, Minute | Loved the visual style, but in terms of gameplay I never really understood what was going on. Almost too experimental; design could use some tweaking to ease the player in while still keeping the mystery and atmosphere. Cool idea though. |
| Dec 16 14:15:00 | 3m 00s | 1$ | Gameplay-wise this isn't so engaging, but I found the concept and execution so absolutely hilarious that I played it five times. |
| Dec 16 14:20:00 | 5m 00s | Lost in Universe | Really confusing. Hard to tell if I wasn't understanding things because of lack of instruction or due to menu issues. Some guidance would be nice because conceptually this looks cool. |
| Dec 16 14:30:00 | 10m 00s | Desperado | One of my favorite LD games I've played so far. Great visuals, great comedic vibe, and fun gameplay. Difficulty could probably increase faster since it can get a bit dull once you get the hang of things, but overall great stuff. |
| Dec 16 14:37:00 | 7m 00s | Shades of One | Love your use of theme and how it evolves over the course of the story. Game could use some polish but for 48 hours its really well done. |
| Dec 16 14:45:00 | 8m 00s | The Day the Laughter Stopped | Horrifyingly well-told story. I love how you subvert the interactive fiction elements toward the end. |
| Dec 16 15:01:00 | 16m 00s | One shot, One opportunity. | Really solid. Like the spin you took on the "one bullet" idea. Enemy behavior makes it kind of impossible not to take a lot of damage, but its still fun. |
| Dec 16 15:07:00 | 6m 00s | The blue present | Good execution of a simple concept. Doesn't bring a lot new to the table but is a fun distraction. Audio is great too. |
| Dec 16 15:13:00 | 6m 00s | One Shot! | I agree the voices are pretty great. Punishingly difficult though; might be nice if bullets were a little easier to see. |
| Dec 16 15:24:00 | 11m 00s | Don One goes to space. | As an concept, I thought the perpetual-runner-jumper game had been exhausted. But all it took was Don One and is his beautiful spikey body to make it fun again. |
| Dec 16 15:38:00 | 14m 00s | In a maze with one | Cool idea, like the use of theme to add variety to mazes. Like others have said mazes are pretty small and simple most of the time. |
| Dec 16 15:41:00 | 3m 00s | Protecto El Dorado! | Really nicely done. Love the spear mechanics. Jump height/wall jumping is a bit odd, but other than that it plays very nicely. |
| Dec 16 15:46:00 | 5m 00s | Dangerproof Dan and The Temple of Aarg! | Couldn't move him either. Bug or missing instructions? |
| Dec 16 15:51:00 | 5m 00s | Papaya | The concept just makes me giggle. A bat...looking for a papaya...protected by an army of preps. A little simplistic in design but pretty and funny. |
| Dec 16 15:55:00 | 4m 00s | One Through The Gate | Loved the sound design, and the minimalist graphics worked well. Really nice little puzzle game. |
| Dec 16 16:04:00 | 9m 00s | Buy the World | Funny game. Not super engaging but its an interesting concept. Love the visuals too. |
| Dec 16 16:17:00 | 13m 00s | Ultra Chase | Well this was silly in the best possible way. Application of theme is ridiculous and general visual style spices things up nicely. Gore gameplay is a bit bland but the details make it fun. |
| Dec 16 21:50:00 | 5h 33m | You only get one.....life | Nicely designed puzzles, but taking the player back to the beginning is just too unforgiving. It only tangentially relates to the theme and it just makes it frustrating. |
| Dec 16 22:09:00 | 19m 00s | BlocknBalls | I'll echo the sentiment that its unreasonably hard without checkpoints. Beyond that, its kind of bland. Technically sound though. |
| Dec 16 22:17:00 | 8m 00s | You Set Us Up The Bomb | Great work on the theme song. Its really hard to tell how your explosions will spread or not, though, making the game kind of confusing to play. |
| Dec 16 22:26:00 | 9m 00s | E pluribus unum | Rules are kind of unclear in terms of what counts as satisfying a shape at the beginning. But its a pretty clever puzzle game. I enjoyed it once I figured out how it works. |
| Dec 16 22:29:00 | 3m 00s | GASP | Really gorgeous game, the breathing mechanic is a bit irritating, but overall fun with a cool application of theme. |
| Dec 16 22:36:00 | 7m 00s | Hide The Baby | Fantastic game. Really funny, great use of the theme. Actually managed to pass on my first play and then went back to play a few more times (couldn't find any other combos that work, maybe publish a list or video after the compo is over?) |
| Dec 16 22:41:00 | 5m 00s | Virtual Sniper Trials | Nice game. Pretty fun to play. Like the semi-random enemy spawns. Very unforgiving but in a well-designed way. |
| Dec 17 16:58:00 | 18h 17m | Bullet | I found the zoom on the scope made it really hard to get a better look at specific people. But a good execution on a good application of the theme overall. |
| Dec 17 17:28:00 | 30m 00s | You only get one seed | I have no idea what just happened...but it sure looked pretty while it confused the crap out of me. |
| Dec 17 17:50:00 | 22m 00s | Lock Block Tower | Yeah, the controls and physics make the game a little hard to play, but its a pretty good concept that could be improved with some polish and extra work. |
| Dec 17 17:58:00 | 8m 00s | Trouble In Town | Really enjoyed this game. 3D top-down visuals were really well done, and the game is challenging in a rewarding way. Good stuff. |
| Dec 27 23:18:00 | 245h 20m | Chambers | I got 2/8...I did not understand what was going on at all, and the jumping physics were a bit odd, but overall I enjoyed it. Great audio and I liked the background visuals. |
| Dec 27 23:22:00 | 4m 00s | Party of One | Really solid game. I had a lot of fun and it was quite humorous. Would be nice if I could see what level I was in the various skills (like you can with the equipment) just because I started to forget as I got further into the game. Good stuff. |
| Dec 27 23:36:00 | 14m 00s | Don't Deploy Your Chute | Hard as hell but I kept me coming back to try again. Music got irritating fast though. |
| Dec 27 23:41:00 | 5m 00s | Thirsty | I really enjoyed this. Very simple, but worth playing. Great job for your first LD. |
| Dec 27 23:43:00 | 2m 00s | One Minute Left | Like other people have said its on the easy side, but its a nicely made, albeit simple, entry. |
| Dec 27 23:50:00 | 7m 00s | Flight of the Stars | Too easy for too long, but other than that this game is really fun. Good concept, good art, great soundtrack. |
| Dec 27 23:59:00 | 9m 00s | Card Encounter! | Like others have said, this has the makings of a great game. Heck, for being made in 48 hours, its already a really solid game. Some more mechanics and clearer explanation and I could see myself playing many many rounds. |
| Dec 28 05:51:00 | 5h 52m | The Last One | Really smooth animation. I'd definitely keep working on this now that the Dare is over; if you have ideas, keep going! |
| Dec 28 05:53:00 | 2m 00s | You Are The One | Really liked this. Hard, interesting use of theme, and overall well-made. Good stuff. |
| Jan 5 19:24:00 | 205h 31m | The One Fork Restaurant | Really great spin on the Diner Dash time-management game type. One of the best uses of theme I've seen in the compo. Great work! |
