|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 15 21:09:00 | Gravity Assist | I love, it's really addictive and showing the previous attempts is vital. Really difficult to figure out the optimal path in order to get as many points as possible! | |
| Dec 16 00:03:00 | 2h 54m | DISTANT WORLD FOR THE BOTH OF US | This game is amazing! It makes me cry how the art direction is so lush :) |
| Dec 16 11:11:00 | 11h 08m | Crystalline | Balance between shield, mining and shooting/moving is great as I had to quickly decide what to do, makes for a difficult game which I like! But I think it is let down a little by the controls, a twin stick method would have worked better or absolute movement as you described :) Good job! |
| Dec 16 11:26:00 | 15m 00s | Peaceful Greeting | Amazing graphics, awesome immersion even without sound and music. And an almost scary prospect too, talking to the aliens and not knowing whether you are saying the right things or not! :D I found it really difficult to work out the language though, but maybe it is just me - don't really understand the whole interrogation/affirmation thing! Never ever played a game like this before! |
| Dec 16 15:25:00 | 3h 59m | Don One goes to space. | Collision is slightly off sometimes, but regardless a really fun game - love the music, love the text, love the humor. Well done :) |
| Dec 16 15:34:00 | 9m 00s | Dead Planet | Absolutely brilliant! This is one of those rare games on LD that just feels and plays right, control-wise. Also I learnt something new on the first go after being eaten by the yellow creature, love games that do that! Best one I've played and rated as of yet. |
| Dec 16 15:48:00 | 14m 00s | You only get 1-1 | This is amazing. Best LD game I've played/rated as of yet. In many ways this is a perfect platform game without any flaws. The save points were just right, not too easy, not too hard. Progressing by collecting skills is a great tutorial. Level design really gave me the feeling of wonder and exploration, music was suitably creepy. Love that you used the Mario level but made it black, felt like I was trapped in some kind of evil alternate Mario universe. When I dropped down I thought "oh it's just repeating the same level" but then I realised the spikes were there. When the game ended I was disappointed... I wanted more! <br/> <br/>Overall, fantastic entry, and was really amazed as it felt like you had a large team of playtesters working for months to get the gameplay this tight. Good job! |
| Dec 16 16:07:00 | 19m 00s | Perfect Match | Once I managed to get the match lit (which did take a while) the rest was easy, set fire to everything! A bit of a non-game, but I was very impressed with the graphics, it's a style you should definitely stick with. |
| Dec 16 16:12:00 | 5m 00s | Cuborg | Tried to play your game, but got blue squares on the windows version instead of any graphics. |
| Dec 16 16:17:00 | 5m 00s | Dungeon Run | Great game, surprisingly accessible for a ASCII roguelike thing. Interface was clean and simple, controls were easy to understand. Very impressed with your line of sight implementation. This has potential to be a great roguelike. |
| Dec 16 16:29:00 | 12m 00s | Cure the infected! | Hang on, so where's the cheerleader?!? <br/>Never played a FPV before (first person vaccinator) <br/>Great concept, but really difficult on the 3rd level! |
| Dec 16 16:54:00 | 25m 00s | YOGO YOLO ARENA | To start off, it is difficult to download as you're using Google Drive. I'd recommend Dropbox sharing if possible! <br/> <br/>Anyway, with that out of the way... <br/>Oh my goodness those graphics are amazing! As a massive fan of low poly I love it, mainly awesome colours :) <br/>A bit of a non-game at the moment, but I do understand WIP. <br/>Looking forward to what you do with it! |
| Dec 16 17:00:00 | 6m 00s | GoatLove | Great polish and graphics, and clearly a decent engine you got there. Hard at first, but you can easily cheat by constantly holding down the reverse button! |
| Dec 16 17:05:00 | 5m 00s | Star Chase | Really difficult to judge, but I love the balance between waiting and shooting. I stumbled upon your game when trying to find similar games to mine, good job! Love the graphics :) |
| Dec 16 17:14:00 | 9m 00s | Jameson The Pilot | This is so good! Such a huge amount of depth for a LD entry. <br/> <br/>- Stock market <br/>- Ship upgrades <br/>- Mining <br/>- Pirates <br/>- Bounty hunters <br/>- Even a planet landing mechanic! <br/> <br/>Sounds like the feature list for a AAA game. How the hell did you do this in 48 hrs? <br/> <br/>I stumbled upon this game while searching for other space games since I made one too, and I realised you really thought about the gameplay here! <br/> <br/>Can't praise this enough! |
| Dec 16 17:24:00 | 10m 00s | One Chance | Saw this game after searching for other space games (I made one too!). Great graphics and atmosphere. <br/> <br/>To fix the green marker bug, I assume you are using worldtoscreenpoint? Hide the marker if the screenpoint.z <= 0 (behind you) <br/> <br/>Anyway, great concept but I was initially confused about the controls. A fixed camera would have been more ideal I think! |
| Dec 16 17:28:00 | 4m 00s | Below Zero | Awesome, this game is so similar to mine! Low poly graphics, spin out of control when you hit asteroids, love it! And scary too.... |
| Dec 16 17:57:00 | 29m 00s | Who's the Worst Person in the World? | First Twine game I've ever played. I loved it. One word: <br/> <br/>Gripping. |
| Dec 16 18:04:00 | 7m 00s | Park King | Tutorial was blank? I found this very difficult to understand! |
| Dec 16 18:10:00 | 6m 00s | The hunter | Absolutely terrifying. I loved it! <br/>One bug, you can run through thin walls by running. Other than that - awesome :) |
| Dec 16 18:14:00 | 4m 00s | Da' Face | The whole thing was jarring, uncomfortable, garish, creepy and nauseating. <br/> <br/>Fantastic job! |
| Dec 16 18:18:00 | 4m 00s | SHIFTER | Amazing beats, I love it. Good job not putting perma death into this - I like the exploration aspect! |
| Dec 16 18:24:00 | 6m 00s | You Only Get One Cube! | Way to get around the theme, one cube becomes a million! <br/>Great colours and music. Physics was fun too! |
| Dec 16 18:27:00 | 3m 00s | Warp Runner | Game mechanic is solid and fun. But I thought I was going to die when hitting the walls. Instead you carry on - so that was a bit underwhelming. Then again, I really wanted this game to be tough tough tough like Canabalt :) Overall, warping is a great concept and I think you could pursue this idea further! |
| Dec 16 18:43:00 | 16m 00s | Oscar's World [You Only Get One Childhood] | Great graphics and voice recorded sounds! Playability wise, I found the gravity to be rather unforgiving, which made the game quite difficult, so I would have preferred looser jumping! I would recommend implementing Sonic Physics (http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_Physics_Guide) and getting a feel on how to implement a really good platforming engine, it certainly helped me! Overall, good job in the time alloted :) |
| Dec 16 18:58:00 | 15m 00s | E pluribus unum | Once I figured out that the shapes can be made from a combination of small squares, and that I can do it in any order the game really opened up. <br/> <br/>I completed level 10! Fantastic level of polish, simple but effective sound, lovely art direction but above all really intelligent and elegant puzzle design, a real winner and I've never seen anything like it. <br/> <br/>Bravo! |
| Dec 16 19:07:00 | 9m 00s | Protogun | Really awesome concept and game mechanic, and gorgeous art direction. Technical issues though, lots of lag on my system! But ignoring that this game is really fun to play - though I found it gets quite difficult quick! |
| Dec 16 19:10:00 | 3m 00s | One Turn | Great concept, but could do with a few rounds of bugfixing and polish. Also, uploading the swf to a webserver would definitely get you more rates as well :) |
| Dec 16 19:13:00 | 3m 00s | You Only Get One Choice - Survive | Simple, elegant and effective concept. Nice colours too! I wonder how you could build on this idea a little more... |
| Dec 16 19:26:00 | 13m 00s | One Soul | Yes, once this is done, being able to bring all the results together to see what kind of souls are being sent to where would be cool! Maybe some kind of infographic :) <br/> <br/>Anyway, great graphics and mood! |
| Dec 16 19:30:00 | 4m 00s | Shadow Night | Careful about the lighting, you need a very dim directional light (coming from windows for example) and not just low ambient lighting, that's why your sofas look really flat. <br/> <br/>Anyway, great first attempt in Unity, keep going :) |
| Dec 16 19:34:00 | 4m 00s | Prototype | Definitely a mega ambitious idea! But still... you did well to get something working and playable. |
| Dec 16 19:37:00 | 3m 00s | Destroy The Core | The only game so far to make me laugh - those ridiculous voices haha! <br/> <br/>Extremely polished. Great gameplay (what my LD game should have been). Great job :) |
| Dec 16 19:41:00 | 4m 00s | 0RBITALIS | This game is awesome! The screenshots don't really do it justice, because the art direction is fantastic in motion. Gravity slingshot games are often boring but this is a fresh new twist! |
| Dec 16 19:56:00 | 15m 00s | Tankdare | Personally, there's too much contrast in the lighting so I found it hard to see. Otherwise, really polished gameplay and visuals! |
| Dec 16 20:05:00 | 9m 00s | Super Epic Robot Battles | Love the movement, feels like you are actually inside a mech. Glad you didn't implement strafe as that would have ruined the illusion. |
| Dec 16 20:14:00 | 9m 00s | Gun Grabbers! | This game is amazing, I love it so much. Going to play it some more after I've written this review. Agree with everyone here - the art is amazing, but there is so much more potential here, consider adding couch multiplayer for that Towerfall/Samurai Gunn experience. I can see this going far! You only get one gun! |
| Dec 16 23:13:00 | 2h 59m | Virtual Sniper Trials | Once I figured out that the enemy was a red barrel and also that he could spawn on any floor (and I could go to the top floor!) the game really opened up. Really skillful, great job! |
| Dec 16 23:30:00 | 17m 00s | 1111 pt 1 | I love it! Not only literal interpretation but amazing playability, difficulty curve, controls and graphics. I loved how insane the ship design got each time you are upgraded. |
| Dec 16 23:35:00 | 5m 00s | Drain | Fantastic art direction and suitably ambient music. Great concept - to improve it, it would be great to zoom into a specific position rather than center of the screen. |
| Dec 17 00:19:00 | 44m 00s | TekkuNikku | Absolutely amazing, I can't believe you managed to get this amount of polish into a LD48. Really satisfying to get a hit, and the slow motion "matrix" kill move at the end is inspired. The only thing I can think of is... does the stance actually make any difference? Awesome job :) <br/> <br/>Btw - inspired by Sumotori Dreams? If not, play it, its so funny! |
| Dec 17 00:26:00 | 7m 00s | Bounty hunting | Really great use of the theme. I love the graphics, controls, and even music. Totally shocked when the worm appeared as well! |
| Dec 17 00:33:00 | 7m 00s | STAR BATTER | I love the concept and graphics, but for me this was hard to play on my laptop's touchpad. I'll try with a mouse tomo :) |
| Dec 17 00:37:00 | 4m 00s | FowL Play | Really solid platforming engine and game. I like the floating mechanic. Not much else to say except I had fun! Oh and fantastic art :) |
| Dec 17 00:58:00 | 21m 00s | Medieval Fantasy Island | Amazing! So basically you made Skyrim in 72 hours ;) Some sound effects would improve this entry greatly! |
| Dec 17 01:05:00 | 7m 00s | _You only get your keyboard! | I killed 49 ships. Love typing so this game was right up there for me. Just like typing of the dead :) |
| Dec 17 01:32:00 | 27m 00s | TITAN SOULS | Man this is so hard! Beat 1 boss but keep coming back for more :) |
| Dec 17 01:47:00 | 15m 00s | One Torch | Great graphics and it seems like a very unique puzzle solving game. I like the mechanics of moving your followers but I'm struggling getting past the first spider. Perhaps I'm missing something? Overall I can see what you are trying to do and I like it :) |
| Dec 17 01:52:00 | 5m 00s | One Shot | Absolutely love the graphics on here. Really simple gameplay but extremely polished which is what is impressive. |
| Dec 17 01:56:00 | 4m 00s | Agent One | Absolutely amazing complete polished experience. The trackbar is also a nice touch. Low poly modelling skills were pro! |
| Dec 17 02:06:00 | 10m 00s | The Last Realm | Love the concept and graphics. Reminds me of a simpler more accessible GSB. One day I want to make a 4X game with battles like this. Good job! |
| Dec 17 08:33:00 | 6h 27m | One Every Five | No second player for me but I can still rate the game on its merits. Really good solid platforming engine you built here, collisions are great, framerate is smooth, feels responsive, graphics are actually really great. One thing which could be improved, would be nice to jump higher if you hold down the jump button (or jump less if you're just tapping it). I recommend looking at the Sonic Physics articles (http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_Physics_Guide) for a really good platforming implementation - certainly helped me! <br/> <br/>Overall, good job :) |
| Dec 17 08:36:00 | 3m 00s | Zombie Apocalypse | Haha never played a game where the bullets bounce like this before! And getting the zombies to chase you into the bullet is a great concept. Only criticism is the font, hard to read. Apart from that, really good fun, looks great! |
| Dec 17 08:39:00 | 3m 00s | The End of Days | Simple and effective twin stick shooter. Nothing fancy, but the level of polish makes this game stand out. Nice touch making the monsters go through scenery but you can't, adds a bit more difficulty to the game. Great job! |
| Dec 17 08:44:00 | 5m 00s | Dumb Waiter | Difficult to play on a laptop mouse! But everything else - wow, great art direction and jazzy sound track :) |
| Dec 17 08:46:00 | 2m 00s | one-sec | Great audio direction! And the starfield background adds a level of polish too. I really like this game! |
| Dec 17 08:54:00 | 8m 00s | Bomb has been defused | Love it. Nice and simple, but really tense and effective bomb defusing game. And it made me laugh, your explosion sound hahaha! Great job! |
| Dec 17 09:06:00 | 12m 00s | Moon's quest | Wow, so much strategy with only one move. I guess its the number of gifts and people in your party that makes the interesting choices. Awesome gameboy vibe. Feels very authentic. Overall - perfect! |
| Dec 17 09:14:00 | 8m 00s | You Only Get One | Great graphics and particle effects. Gameplay needs to be more fun, can be improved with things like chaining(combos), upgrades etc... But overall good polished result! |
| Dec 17 09:27:00 | 13m 00s | Some Day | The art is the best thing about this game! Gameplay needs a little direction for the player :) |
| Dec 17 10:33:00 | 1h 06m | 1 | Great "non-game" ;) Character design is amazing, looks as if superbrothers might be in 3D. Really good potential art style there! |
| Dec 17 10:40:00 | 7m 00s | The dragon journey | Was the double jump intentional? Anyway great striking graphics, except for the player which seemed to be scaled up and blurry. Also a bit too easy, I got to the end without any problems, however the concept and mechanics are good and there's a real potential for a difficult game here! |
| Dec 17 10:44:00 | 4m 00s | The Last Rock | Great physics on this simple platformer. Really good idea that you used velocity of the rock to determine damage. Art and colours are very nice also, and breaking pixels when they die is a fun touch! Overall great job for your second LD entry! |
| Dec 17 10:46:00 | 2m 00s | Human Invasion ! | Nice reversal :P Double jump! |
| Dec 17 11:09:00 | 23m 00s | Crew: A Futuristic Detective Game | Once I actually read the description, the game made a lot more sense and I figured out who the killer was! Yes, it does need work so that it becomes possible to logically and surely identify the killer based on all the clues, but that is not the point - the concept is great! Logic aside, graphics and sound were wonderful. Love this entry, well done! |
| Dec 17 11:13:00 | 4m 00s | Blue Harpoon | Really good! I like that you have to get the harpoon back, as it makes the game a lot harder especially if you miss. Great use of the theme. Art is fantastic, but lacking animation, I think if you simplified the art and focus more on animation and feel, you'd get a better result. Still - I had lots of fun playing it, and nice variety of enemies. Good job! |
| Dec 17 11:18:00 | 5m 00s | Kmembert | Level 6 was very hard indeed! Perfect kind of game for a jam really, great mechanics, good level of polish. Having to dodge your own bullet is a lovely twist. Fantastic job! |
| Dec 17 11:25:00 | 7m 00s | Jump Chip | What an amazing mechanic. Also the level design, storyline, graphics, sound, music and level of polish makes this feel like a "complete" and playtested game. Absolutely unbelievable! |
| Dec 17 11:30:00 | 5m 00s | Last Noir - adventure game tech demo | Excellent environment! Pretty for a tech demo, looking forward to what you might do with it gameplay wise. |
| Dec 17 11:33:00 | 3m 00s | Captain Sarah | Really good potential for a space based exploration game! You should take a look at the Indie game A.N.N.E. as well for inspiration, platformer + shmup hybrid :)Excellent spriting... |
| Dec 17 11:38:00 | 5m 00s | Doubt | Don't really get the 4 doors bit. But wow - phenomenal work on the art direction, sound and music! |
| Dec 17 11:43:00 | 5m 00s | 1 Shot Armada | Fantastic little gem here! Once I became familiar with all the weapon types, there was a bit more strategy to choosing. Nice level of polish too. Well done! |
| Dec 17 11:46:00 | 3m 00s | Planet LD-28 | Whoa what a crazy game! Thought it was lag at first but realised it was part of the gameplay :P |
| Dec 17 11:52:00 | 6m 00s | Maniac Farming Simulator | So amazing! Click to farm! But damn those weeds! |
| Dec 17 11:54:00 | 2m 00s | Zombies... ON CHRISTMAS | Simple but effective twin stick shooter, nice level of polish, great work! |
| Dec 17 12:00:00 | 6m 00s | C.R.A.T.E | I love this game. Companion cube eh! Gravity is a bit floating but other than that great mechanics and feels very solid. This has potential to be a great game. Good work! |
| Dec 17 12:06:00 | 6m 00s | One Job One Shot | Wow! You can steer the bullet in cinematic slow motion! That's a brilliant concept and well executed aesthetic wise. I love this game! |
| Dec 17 12:08:00 | 2m 00s | Charon | Agree with most people here, not sure how the labyrinth works. But the graphics and sound? Proper retro - love it! |
| Dec 17 12:11:00 | 3m 00s | UNDERDEEP | I love dungeon crawler games so this was right up my street. Nice responsive controls, great graphics, love it! Have you played Delver? |
| Dec 17 12:15:00 | 4m 00s | You Only Get One | Pretty creepy! But not 100% how to beat this! |
| Dec 17 12:17:00 | 2m 00s | Star Cannon | Nice simple game, but it works! And quite challenging too :) |
| Dec 17 12:22:00 | 5m 00s | GRAIL | Firstly, graphics are absolutely gorgeous, love the contrasting colours! Splash screen is especially beautiful. Secondly, the difficulty reminds me of Another World. Thirdly, get use of the theme. Love it A LOT. |
| Dec 17 12:25:00 | 3m 00s | OneThrust | Interesting idea, but found the minimap too small to see what was going on! Definitely potential for a great game here though! |
| Dec 17 12:28:00 | 3m 00s | Save Yourself | Interesting idea, time fracturing. Was this inspired by 300 mechanics? Would be nice to see clearly who actually did kill you! |
| Dec 17 12:30:00 | 2m 00s | Going Around | The graphics are what make this. Absolutely fantastic low poly modelling. Great work! |
| Dec 17 12:32:00 | 2m 00s | You only get the mechanics | I absolutely love this! Simple instructions, great controls, but yes, was disappointed when it ended. More! |
| Dec 17 12:35:00 | 3m 00s | Ultimate Wish | Unfortunately really easy to complete, but that is not the point, the level design can always be improved later. The game mechanic itself is a great idea, and the art style is absolutely fantastic. I really enjoyed this entry, thumbs up! |
| Dec 17 13:57:00 | 1h 22m | Monogon | This game needs more ratings! Perhaps ditch the .jar and go for something web enabled next time? Aside from that - excellent art direction and I enjoy the block mechanic. Great work! |
| Dec 17 14:04:00 | 7m 00s | Revenge in Company | Haha this is hilarious. Something everyone secretly (or not so secretly) wants to do. The flavour text adds to the experience! |
| Dec 17 14:10:00 | 6m 00s | Touch | Beautiful! <br/> <br/>And strangely hopeful although I'm not sure why! <br/> <br/>You only get one life, but you can touch and affect others who in turn will do the same. |
| Dec 17 14:14:00 | 4m 00s | Single Load | Surprisingly hypnotic! Also the colours really stand out in this one :) |
| Dec 17 14:18:00 | 4m 00s | Drone! | Awesome pixel art! |
| Dec 17 14:21:00 | 3m 00s | Robo Juicestice | Art is absolutely amazing! Some improvements to be made - such as background parallax as it seemed to "stick" to the player position :) Final boss art... well.. wow! |
| Dec 17 14:24:00 | 3m 00s | Rations, Please! | Doesn't scale well on a laptop monitor (1366x768) but other than that great game and amazing art. Inspired by Papers, Please? ;) |
| Dec 17 14:28:00 | 4m 00s | Shards of One | Wow... didn't expect that. The 2nd text game I've played this LD. Great font, great story! A bit depressing.... but that's a good thing! |
| Dec 17 14:31:00 | 3m 00s | Natural Sheep Care | WTF. How did you even come up with this idea.. sheep, portals.... rifle! Amazing art, fantastic entry, love it! |
| Dec 17 14:35:00 | 4m 00s | Tiny Thor | Nice throwing mechanic, and beautiful pixel art. I found the player speed and jump height a bit too much though! |
| Dec 17 14:44:00 | 9m 00s | Underbyte | This is amazing! Love the glitchs, the art, music, sound, everything. One of my favs this LD |
| Dec 17 14:49:00 | 5m 00s | Break Out! | Interesting concept but I found more frustrating not being able to do what I wanted to do. A good potential idea to think about though! |
| Dec 17 14:51:00 | 2m 00s | One Arrow | Love it, fantastic art, colours and animation. Great playability as well, really responsive and can get quite challenging. Great job! |
| Dec 17 14:53:00 | 2m 00s | The One Tower | Just wanted to say, the title screen art caught my eye. Not trying this as it is multiplayer only (so I didn't rate it either) but thought I'd leave this message here to compliment the artist. :) |
| Dec 17 14:55:00 | 2m 00s | YOGO PATH | Procedurally generated platform with an interesting mechanic? I'm there. Art style is great too! Fantastic work! |
| Dec 17 15:39:00 | 44m 00s | No Choice | :( Well done! |
| Dec 17 16:04:00 | 25m 00s | St. George's Day | Wow, didn't expect such nice graphics especially the cityscape. Great gameplay, well done :) |
| Dec 17 16:08:00 | 4m 00s | You Only Get One Try | Great physics, and I love the colours and minimalist art. What a game jam game should be :) |
| Dec 17 16:13:00 | 5m 00s | Derelict | Nice and scary! The breathing sounds especially :) |
| Dec 18 09:29:00 | 17h 16m | Only one bullet/rectangle thing. | Pretty hard! But I found the angle slightly off! |
| Dec 18 09:31:00 | 2m 00s | little half squat | The audio is the best bit about this game, great result! Check GetButtonDown for jump instead of button state each frame because if you hold down the jump button it stomps forever. |
| Dec 18 09:36:00 | 5m 00s | Alien Plant | You game is great! Really surprised at home playable this is. The tanks especially made it really challenging, and you have to multitask a lot. |
| Dec 18 09:39:00 | 3m 00s | 11111!!!.. | Great take on the theme! Pretty hard as well. The only thing I didn't like was the very noisy sounds, they hurt my ears a bit! Otherwise I enjoyed the game :) |
| Dec 18 09:44:00 | 5m 00s | UniSwarm | I love the concept, kind of like Galcon but building units is a nice twist on the idea. I found unclear why a planet I was surrounding wasn't turning pink though and I always end up dying. Possibly I'm just not very good at the game! |
| Dec 21 21:34:00 | 83h 50m | The Black Lighthouse | Loving the low poly terrain, definitely a graphic style I'm into. Music is understated and great. I did get stuck on the rocks a lot though! |
