| Apr 28 02:19:00 | Cave Harrier | I considered making a pseudo z-axis game for my entry. | |
| Apr 28 02:31:00 | 12m 00s | Total Tipanic | Fun... you should keep working on it I think it would be a great mobile game. |
| Apr 28 02:42:00 | 11m 00s | I like big BOMBS! | it's undresponsive for me! |
| Apr 28 02:45:00 | 3m 00s | Prairieo | Fun! |
| Apr 28 02:49:00 | 4m 00s | In The Caves | Love the 8-bit 3D aesthetic. |
| Apr 28 02:52:00 | 3m 00s | Love Letter Typer | I got one or two rooms in and was trapped? |
| Apr 28 02:57:00 | 5m 00s | The Core Eaters | I am terrible at this but it's legit. I like the controls. I wish there was a rating for controls. 5/5 for them although the ship could maybe have a tad bit more acceleration. |
| Apr 28 03:07:00 | 10m 00s | FishCopter | I love it. Feels like an old NES game except for the suspension line with it's fine rotation. I especially like the music. I gottta get some chiptunes going. |
| Apr 28 03:22:00 | 15m 00s | We Grow | This is an excellent game. You should take it all the way. Funny it's very similar to what I thought I might try to make at first which is sort of a Poseidon Adventure thing where you are "flocking" through a series of hazardous rooms. This is the best game I've rated so far. Only a couple more then I gotta dip out to pick up some take out and catch the west coast re-run of Game of Thrones! |
| Apr 28 03:24:00 | 2m 00s | Nesty Fall | Not gonna sign up for an account to play this. Maybe you could move it somewhere else? |
| Apr 28 03:27:00 | 3m 00s | Death's Masquerade | Great idea. How do I get to kill Celes? She's got to go!! |
| Apr 28 03:31:00 | 4m 00s | The Show Must Go On | I have bookmarked this to play it some more after GoT but after a couple minutes I think this is a fantastic and original idea. I like the presentation so far too. keep going with it! |
| Apr 28 03:34:00 | 3m 00s | Beneath The Memories | Very Douglas Adams. |
| Apr 28 05:45:00 | 2h 11m | Cry Baby | I'm pasting all the Unity based games into FireFox as Chrom doesn't play nicely with it on my system. This game is pretty solid platforming. I'm working on some side scrollers and I'm going to implement a smoothly accelerating camera like in this game. |
| Apr 28 05:48:00 | 3m 00s | Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick | Great look to the art. If you keep working on the game you should be able to kill graham crackers and also chocolate and then make some smores. |
| Apr 28 05:54:00 | 6m 00s | Divernaut | Sweet, reminded me of Blaster Master with the hero's look and when it switches game modes. Nice complete game, my highest rating so far. |
| Apr 28 06:15:00 | 21m 00s | 29 Leagues | Nice. I'm a sucker for pseudo 3D. Much better using mouse for movement. |
| Apr 28 13:45:00 | 7h 30m | Bobs Incident | Tough game. But a real game! |
| Apr 28 13:49:00 | 4m 00s | Atomicle - LostAutumn.net | Great look and feel. After a minute or two I got it and then got good at it. |
| Apr 28 13:52:00 | 3m 00s | Insect War | Gravity is way too fast. Strongest element was the music which sounds like late-80s arcade and Sega Genesis music. |
| Apr 28 14:42:00 | 50m 00s | Under The Pavements , The Hell (UPTH) | Tried to play web and windows but the links are broken. |
| Apr 28 15:13:00 | 31m 00s | Persephone | Is there a way to use the key once you get it? |
| Apr 28 16:22:00 | 1h 09m | Temple of Ra | Very cool mechanic although in Chrome under Win7 I am having a lot of trouble aiming the light beams accurately because they move so fast. |
| Apr 28 17:25:00 | 1h 03m | Beneath the Trolls | Nice controls/mechanic. There should be separate ratings for soundFX and music. One "audio" score often leaves me feeling conflicted. |
| Apr 28 17:28:00 | 3m 00s | Blunderer | Neat. I made this almost fullscreen on my 30" panel (by using CTRL+ in firefox to scale up the Unity window). At one point I got the level spinning so fast that it started making me slightly nauseous. Funny but I never had motion sickness before getting an Oculus. It seems like I'm much more susceptible to it now. |
| Apr 28 17:55:00 | 27m 00s | Beneath Colossal | Sweet. Very tough. But I dig it. |
| Apr 28 18:09:00 | 14m 00s | Dr. Beat | I tried it in FF with Keyboard and Chrome using my Logitech F710. The sideways acceleration curve is too steep and I gave up after missing too many platforms too quickly. |
| Apr 28 18:47:00 | 38m 00s | Deep Blue Surface | Nice complete game. I feel a kinship with you because I came very close to calling my game DEEP BLUE SEA the game and packaging it like one of those NES movie licensed games. I also thought of using WATERWORLD. In the end I decided against it but that was probably a mistake. But our games are also similar in mechanic. Have to say I expected to see a lot more swimming based games. <br/> <br/>Anyhow, back to your game. I beat the second level but got distracted and died anyways. My favourite thing about this game is probably the animation through perspective when the player changes directions. Little touches like that used to blow my mind back in the day when pixel art was a harsh reality and not a freely chosen aesthetic style. <br/> <br/>In all seriousness this is a fun game and one of the best entries I've rated. |
| Apr 28 19:37:00 | 50m 00s | Revenge of the Kraken | Sweet game, one of my favourites from this LD. It legit feels like an old retro game. In 1985 you would pay $money for this on a Commodore 64. I think this could be expanded into quite a fun experience. Small tip: it might pay to move the SPACEBAR bit of the opening splash down to the bottom where the rest of the controls are listed. I didn't notice the boost at first. |
| Apr 28 19:47:00 | 10m 00s | Mole Position | Controls hard to use in Chrome. |
| Apr 28 19:53:00 | 6m 00s | Side B, Track 1 | I had a lot of random shit happening. |
| Apr 28 21:20:00 | 1h 27m | Ascendence | Stuck pretty early in the game. Used my gamepad. Kept blowing myself up but I'm not sure if that's supposed to achieve anything or if it's meant to be a restart. Nice work. |
| Apr 28 21:24:00 | 4m 00s | Reflection | I actually bookmarked this to come back and play a bit more later. This is a fun little mind-bender. |
| Apr 28 21:33:00 | 9m 00s | Defend the Surface | I couldn't make any sense of this. Nice art style though. |
| Apr 28 21:37:00 | 4m 00s | Something Fishy | Great game. Very polished and complete and fun. Nice work on the art too. My highest rating so far for this one. |
| Apr 28 21:47:00 | 10m 00s | Infinite Dig Dug | Very tight controls and solid gameplay. Neat bouncy feel to the graphics and UI. Overall great work. I know you're supposed to avoid the magma but it's too much fun to drown the monsters in molten rock. <br/> <br/>You commented about the animation of my game character not bending his knees. Those are just left/right keyframes I would defintely have his knee bending between those two frames. Just to be clear! |
| Apr 28 23:06:00 | 1h 19m | Somalia | Hmmm I avoid most games that don't offer a web version but this one has me curious. |
| Apr 29 01:13:00 | 2h 07m | Watch Your Step | This seems very cool and complete except every time I stack it says "Miss" and I get nothing for it. |
| Apr 29 06:01:00 | 4h 48m | Six Clouds Above | Nice easing curves on the flight controls. |
| Apr 29 06:04:00 | 3m 00s | Dark Moles! | I'm trying to branch out from diving games. I almost made a game like this but it was going to be horrible lovecraftian worms and such bursting forth and you'd have to burn them. Then I realized that was a huge part of the terrible ALONE IN THE DARK remake from 2008 which I bought for full price. Ugh! |
| Apr 29 06:07:00 | 3m 00s | Something Fishy | This is artistically valid. |
| Apr 29 17:37:00 | 11h 30m | Middle Management Hell | Web link is broken. |
| Apr 29 18:04:00 | 27m 00s | The Legend of the Thunder Fish | You win man. I thought this was cool for the first few minutes... then I figured out how to fish. Great work! |
| Apr 29 19:04:00 | 1h 00m | DEPTH BENEATH | This is super-tight. I like how you start by walking the hero off the splash screen. |
| Apr 29 19:16:00 | 12m 00s | Project Tethys | Nice. I like the tactical element of dealing with attacks from three directions. |
| Apr 29 19:30:00 | 14m 00s | Deep South Motel | Very fun and absorbing for a little while. Then it randomly ends... is it timed? And I think it's reporting my high score wrong? It said I had$100.. I had like $300. Aside from that great work. |
| Apr 29 19:43:00 | 13m 00s | Room Cleaning Simulator 2014 | Yesss. I got the cookies. Nice physics. |
| Apr 30 05:54:00 | 10h 11m | Jetpack Caverns | I love the art style. Great jetpack controls. |
| May 1 20:05:00 | 38h 11m | Berserker | I am amaze. |
| May 10 15:16:00 | 211h 11m | Amy's Rescue | Very fun. I couldn't beat it in a few tries. Is the wall jumping intentional or a glitch? I'm working on a game that has wall-jumping like in NES Ninja Gaiden. |
| May 14 06:43:00 | 87h 27m | Descent | Nice work all around. Pretty masterful. Gave me an old school Psygnosis vibe... and then the music kicked in! |
