| Apr 26 15:14:00 | Beneath The Surface | This game changed my life 10/10 | |
| Apr 28 20:44:00 | 53h 30m | And the Moment Is Gone | I really like this idea. The dark thoughts never really played a part unless I touched them on purpose, though. They were easier to ignore than in real life :P |
| Apr 28 21:08:00 | 24m 00s | cell.erity | Very pretty, but difficult and the controls seemed a little clunky. Could do well with some ambient sounds and such :) |
| Apr 28 21:22:00 | 14m 00s | No Eyes Willy | It's important to keep your Willy clean. I like a game with a message. It bothered me that it wasn't completely consistent which way Willy went after climbing the ladders, I'd expect him to continue the way he was going, but he didn't always. With a little polishing it could be a neat little puzzle game. |
| Apr 28 21:50:00 | 28m 00s | Gubble Quest | Hehe this is cute, I loved the little boots. I'll have to play it again and see if I can find any secrets. The time score doesn't make much sense in a game like this, though :) |
| Apr 28 21:53:00 | 3m 00s | Lurker | Great idea, with the right level design this could be really fun. It was super buggy, though. I started by falling through the level a few times. And the camera controls were confusing. But great effort for a compo game! :) |
| Apr 28 22:01:00 | 8m 00s | SurfaceDare | Hehe, I had no idea what I just experienced. But I managed to madly twirl myself towards freedom. Like someone said, the wacky controls have a QWOP like feeling and the simple graphics work ok :) |
| Apr 28 22:18:00 | 17m 00s | The Gathering | This is a really great looking game. I couldn't figure it out, though. I managed to place a few houses, but all but one got destroyed every night. I didn't manage to get villa to generate gold and so never got to build a guard house. |
| Apr 28 22:24:00 | 6m 00s | Dive | Awesome style and mood. Simple game, but everything seemed to come together. Not often 48 hour games manage to pack in neat graphics, sound and music like this. One of the best so far :) |
| Apr 28 22:30:00 | 6m 00s | Trapped Under Ice | Sweet little game, but I found it really difficult! Sometime the creatures seemed to bump into each other randomly creating traffic jams rather than movement patterns you could figure out. The parallax background stuff looks great. |
| Apr 28 22:37:00 | 7m 00s | Mind the Gap | Hehe this is pretty good! Brutal game, took me more than ten tries to even see the second level, the first one was almost the hardest one. With better tuned controls it could even be flappy bird like addictive. Awesome ending too :) |
| Apr 28 22:46:00 | 9m 00s | The Find | That was weird. But in a good way! Took me a while to figure out how to reel in the fish. And I have no idea what the point was, but fishing for weird stuff on the internet is always fun ;) |
| Apr 28 22:50:00 | 4m 00s | ShipMates | I never figured out if there was a point to this, but it didn't matter. I had fun playing around. Graphics, sound, mood, everything is awesome about this one. And interesting interpretation of the theme. A lot more could be done with this reflection/imagination thing :) |
| Apr 28 22:55:00 | 5m 00s | Understanding LD | Not a lot of stars in the theme category, but it's a really solid little platformer. The effects are great and it has its own style. Good job :) |
| Apr 28 23:01:00 | 6m 00s | Adventures of a little Cleaning Robot | Promising looking little game :) I'm not sure if this counts as breaking the rules if it's just the engine. It's still within the spirit of the compo at least. <br/> <br/>The controls were a little wonky and for some reason I felt the sense of scale seemed off, might have been a fov thing? It crashed on exit. |
| Apr 28 23:07:00 | 6m 00s | PiranhaPlayground | I couldnt get it to work until I typed in the full path to the swf file: <br/>http://88.198.161.6/tschery/piranhaplayground/game.swf <br/>Silly game, but I kinda like it! Perhaps some more sense behind which tiles to choose? I just clicked more or less randomly and died when a bucket spawned just as I clicked :) |
| Apr 28 23:17:00 | 10m 00s | Miner Problem | Awesome little game, if not terribly original. If you could swing the pickaxe and jump at the same time, or jump on enemies, it would have a better flow I think. Graphics and animations are top notch :) |
| Apr 28 23:23:00 | 6m 00s | It Came From Below! | Hehe, you're right, this is a lot like my entry! <br/> <br/>So I think you had a great idea, obviously, five stars for the theme ;) Seriously, though, it works pretty well. And it was pretty scary to hit the sonar and see monsters all around. |
| Apr 28 23:31:00 | 8m 00s | Cave'n Escape | Nice little game. Brutally hard, though, but it might do well as an infinite runner game. I like the music! :) |
| Apr 28 23:51:00 | 20m 00s | Escape from Rigel 12 | I really, really enjoyed this one. <br/> <br/>However, I wasn't sure if there was a way to beat it. I got outside, but don't sure if that was it. Digging around at random I later found a room that looked different, but i started glitching through the blocks and nothing seemed to happen. It looks great, though! :) |
| Apr 28 23:56:00 | 5m 00s | Bubble Bubble Bubble Pop | Surprisingly fun and full of suspense! A great example of how less can be more :) <br/> <br/>I wasn't a very good bubble manager, though. Perhaps I'll do better in bubble-middle-management ;) |
| Apr 28 23:59:00 | 3m 00s | Fishing Cat | Cute little game, but a bit too slow for my tastes :) I got bored before I got more than a few upgrades... perhaps if there was a better way to control the lure once in the water? |
| Apr 29 17:33:00 | 17h 34m | Whistle | Great atmosphere and super creepy. I especially liked the audio on this one. No idea what was going on, though ;) |
| Apr 29 17:55:00 | 22m 00s | Angler: Beneath the Surface | Hehe this is great, though the controls need a little tweaking. And just to nit pick a bit, don't angler fish work the other way around? I mean sitting still waiting for their prey to be attracted to the light? ;) |
| Apr 29 18:12:00 | 17m 00s | Skin | Interesting mechanics, and nice interpretation of the theme. It felt a little sluggish, though. Looks promising :) |
| Apr 29 18:21:00 | 9m 00s | Gophers and Choppers | Nice interpretation of the theme, and I agree, it could be a great mobile game :) |
| Apr 29 18:39:00 | 18m 00s | Deep Beneath | Sweet little game :) Very atmospheric, but the controls felt a little sluggish. Perhaps if a button could make the fish huddle together? |
| Apr 29 18:45:00 | 6m 00s | An old man and space | I love the artwork and the sound/music. I also had trouble figuring out what the point was... I managed to fish planets, but I couldn't seem to buy anything. The whale planet thing is awesome :) |
| Apr 29 19:24:00 | 39m 00s | The Sub Marine - Alpha | This is one of the best ones yet. A solid little Wolf3D thing. It was paced well too, whenever I was about to die or run out of ammo I found some more :) And unlike Wolf I didn't spend half the time being lost. |
| Apr 29 19:41:00 | 17m 00s | Under The Shade | Very nice work! I was a bit confused about how to get more shade, though, I stacked a lot of leaves but it didn't seem to do anything. But other than that and a few weird physics glitches it seemed really promising :) |
| Apr 29 19:47:00 | 6m 00s | Gold Submarine | Cute and calming. Sounds and music was nice :) |
| Apr 29 20:08:00 | 21m 00s | Crystal Myth | Definitely the prettiets one yet. I did see a few glitches in the distance once or twice, but other than that it was really beautiful. A very calm and pleasant experience, if you guys can keep up the quality and add some more interesting puzzles I'd play a longer game like this :) |
| Apr 29 20:14:00 | 6m 00s | Hammerfall | Original idea, this could work pretty well with a little more work. Could be a great mobile app as well I imagine :) |
| Apr 29 20:22:00 | 8m 00s | FoxyTank | Nice one :) I was a bit confused at the controls at first, I expected it to be steering instead of directional. But it made sense when I got the hang of it. Quite impressive for a compo entry. More enemies and weapons and I'd play it some more. |
| Apr 29 20:28:00 | 6m 00s | Doug Diggz | This seemed really promising, but it was a bit too broken for a game meant to be a button masher. It felt half the time it didn't matter which block you tried to dig through, moving through stones, but getting stuck on dirt. Some time nothing at all happened and I just had to wait for the timer to run out :/ It looks pretty fun, though! |
| Apr 29 20:41:00 | 13m 00s | Under a Martial Artist's Skin | I figured it out alright, with a little work it could be a fun little rhythm game :) Plus for weird humor even though I didn't see where the theme fitted in. |
| Apr 29 20:59:00 | 18m 00s | Basement | This game looks really cool, but after trying four games I keep getting stuck with a huge line of people wanting to buy stuff I don't have and one lab filling the stores with stuff I can't sell. Wouldn't it make sense to be able to turn people away and destroy stuff in your storage? A bit more work/better instructions and I'd play this a lot more! :) |
| Apr 29 21:18:00 | 19m 00s | Sub Rosa | Neat, athmospheric game. I managed to find the guy pretty quickly, but I'm not sure if it was mostly luck :P |
| Apr 29 21:23:00 | 5m 00s | Beneatha steal pie | I won! |
| Apr 29 21:29:00 | 6m 00s | Beneath the surface | The controls are super weird, but I got the hang of them after a few tries. Felt a lot like Super Meat Boy :D Good job |
| Apr 29 22:03:00 | 34m 00s | Stickleback | I had a hard time figuring out how exactly to approach the ships without getting hit, and I never found a way for the stealth to make sense. The overall idea seemed alright, though, it might work well with a few tweaks :) |
| Apr 29 22:09:00 | 6m 00s | Pearl Diver | Awesome, abstract little experience. I love the whole style, especially the weird creatures and their animations. |
| Apr 29 22:15:00 | 6m 00s | Bunker Down | Not much to do and it crashed on me after a while. It shows some promise, though. Like a simple little puzzle Tararia... or something :) |
| Apr 29 22:20:00 | 5m 00s | Cemetery Secretary | Great humor and style. And more game to it than appears at first. I like how they send a letter to a dead man... tsk tsk bureaucrats :P |
| Apr 29 22:26:00 | 6m 00s | Grimy Little Game | Hehe, awesome interpretation of the theme. Though I'd rather not think about what lives under the surface of my keyboard :P I wasn't sure when the game was over. The site gave me a pop-up, but when I told my browser to stop letting it show pop-ups I seemed to be able to play forever. The music was good :) |
| Apr 29 22:29:00 | 3m 00s | SubChase | Neat little game, but the controls were a little strange. It might work better with just keyboard controls. |
| Apr 29 22:34:00 | 5m 00s | Fish Photographer Simulator | I liked the atmosphere and visual effects. This could be a really great, calm little game with a few more features :) Perhaps more points if you snap only one kind of fish up close or something... |
| Apr 29 22:38:00 | 4m 00s | Walking on thin ice... | Great visuals and audio. Those sharks are really scary. I kept trying to strafe left and right with A and D, but I'm not sure the game would be better with it. This had a nice, frantic feel to it. Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 29 22:46:00 | 8m 00s | Beneath the Surface | The graphics are amazing, especially the animations. The game was brutal and when I finally made it to the boss like thing I didn't feel like trying to get all the way through it when I died. I never managed to get the dodge thing to work, just holding down forward and clicking the mouse seemed to work until I got to the golem thing. With some tighter controls/gameplay this could be a beautiful little game :) |
| Apr 29 22:52:00 | 6m 00s | Beyond The Surface The Chaos Rises | The music, drawings and overall mood of this was awesome. I didn't really understand the rules, though. I couldn't figure out what the different options I had meant, I could see when I made progress and when I failed, but was never sure why. I'd definitely play a more complete game in this style! :) |
| Apr 29 22:57:00 | 5m 00s | Fish | This was pretty awesome. I think it would work perfectly on a phone or tablet. Some sound effects would be good too, but the music was nice. One suggestion would be to get the fish to follow the path you draw and not just head straight to the last place you touched, could be cool if you could try and get them to dodge the enemies. Good job :) |
| Apr 29 23:02:00 | 5m 00s | Lucy | For anyone else confused: Go to File -> Download to get the whole zip. |
| Apr 30 17:35:00 | 18h 33m | Hypnoctopus Beach Party ^__^ | :D I love this, the name, the graphics, the gameplay. Super simple and silly, but that's fine. Only thing I would like is a better indication of when you get 'em all, I kept accidently tickling something spiky just when it spawned |
| Apr 30 17:44:00 | 9m 00s | The Hole | Hehe, okay that was super surreal. It was really easy, but I liked the mashup of genres. And the pile of little flat men at the bottom of the hole made me chuckle. |
| Apr 30 17:50:00 | 6m 00s | Descent | Just a great looking game :) It was really diffucult, though. And I wasn't sure if timing had any impact on the fighting or if I should just mash the button as much as possible. Could be a neat little action game with some more work. |
| Apr 30 18:35:00 | 45m 00s | 800bar | Pretty good little game! And the animations, lighting and bubbles and such made it look a lot better than the screenshots implies. |
| Apr 30 18:59:00 | 24m 00s | Wireside | This is really impressive for a jam game. Great interpretation of the theme, and I like the idea of a world with a fragmented cyberspace thing... could definitely be a nice longer game :) |
| Apr 30 19:27:00 | 28m 00s | The Cube | This was really glitchy on my computer :/ I had to move the mouse really carefully or it would just jump around, and I fell through the world at one point. I Didn't get very far, but I liked the pretty, surreal little world :) |
| Apr 30 19:43:00 | 16m 00s | Souvenirs | A nice and strange experience. Definitely original. I really liked the effects and the audio. It did seem a little weird to have a 'happiness meter' in a game with such a serious story, though. Perhaps a more subtle way of showing progress could work? |
| Apr 30 21:51:00 | 2h 08m | Loose | Very original idea, and the balancing felt pretty good. Only problem was the little guy being round, it made it hard to see which way was forward. Good job otherwise :) |
| Apr 30 21:57:00 | 6m 00s | Aztec | Funny little game, but it did glitch a few times. I fell through the ground and died, and at one point I just got flung across the room for no apparent reason. |
| Apr 30 22:03:00 | 6m 00s | Delph Ops | Man that is one intense little dolphin. Fun game :) |
| May 1 20:04:00 | 22h 01m | Coal Not Dole | Haha, I love a game with a happy ending :P |
| May 1 20:09:00 | 5m 00s | Under the kitchen surface | Hehe, I really like this father, daughter competition. I have to say his game could benefit from a shop with hats and such :) Not bad |
| May 1 20:13:00 | 4m 00s | Behind The Surface | Very neat little exploration game :) I enjoyed the little secret like areas. |
| May 1 20:49:00 | 36m 00s | Surf Ace Splashdown | Hehe awesome. You get one extra star just for the pun :P |
| May 5 17:29:00 | 92h 40m | Schist | Very well done! Super satisfying and relaxing mechanic. Only thing I miss is a challenge, but the audio and graphics and everything is simply great. I would definitely play a longer game like this :) |
| May 5 21:13:00 | 3h 44m | I'm not who I am | I really like what you tried to do here. It didn't really draw me in like I hoped something like it would. But really good effort :) |
| May 5 21:22:00 | 9m 00s | UndergroundRescue | Sweet little puzzle game, and good use of the theme :) |
| May 5 21:26:00 | 4m 00s | Jumpland Underground | This is great all around. Fun and challenging mechanic, fitting the theme. The randomization worked well. |
