| Apr 29 09:05:00 | 800bar | Keys are a bit strange, but I enjoyed the mood. Nice particle effects, I'm always a sucker for those. I liked ramming into the enemy subs too. | |
| Apr 29 09:14:00 | 9m 00s | Paddle Battle Pegasus | I didn't quite get the locking-in chests/high score mechanic, unless I just didn't collect enough coins to do that. I had all three chests lit up - only scored 35 at maximum though! |
| Apr 29 11:01:00 | 1h 47m | Underground Minions | It's a shame you didn't get to make more content in the time, would have liked to have seen more! |
| Apr 29 11:05:00 | 4m 00s | Eat'em all | Flappy whale? <br/> <br/>I found it difficult to get going again after being knocked out by a jellyfish, ended up making it less fun that it could have been |
| Apr 29 12:54:00 | 1h 49m | Thought Police | Wow, that was uh.... wow. A couple of amusingly unexpected twists there, I liked! |
| Apr 29 16:58:00 | 4h 04m | You Must SMASH! | Neat little game. The key bindings were a little strange maybe, and the acceleration of the dude felt a bit floaty, but the concept was good. |
| Apr 29 17:04:00 | 6m 00s | Enderscope's Game | Really neat idea! You should totally work on this a bit more - the engine is working well, just needs more game! |
| Apr 29 22:38:00 | 5h 34m | Surf Camp: The Legend of the Surf Ace | Awesome job, the surfing mechanics are highly entertaining. |
| Apr 29 22:44:00 | 6m 00s | Beneath the Surface | Controls are a bit troublesome, but the game is still very atmospheric, nice job! |
| Apr 29 22:49:00 | 5m 00s | Fast Steps | The sand worms could do with being a little slower, but it's a neat idea nevertheless! |
| Apr 30 09:02:00 | 10h 13m | Deep Blue Home | Absolutely charming game! |
| Apr 30 09:10:00 | 8m 00s | Diving Simulator 2015 | A thoroughly accurate simulation of diving, very nice! |
| Apr 30 09:14:00 | 4m 00s | Fappy Bat Cave Edition | Pretty good for a beginner! Keep doing the one game a month thing! |
| Apr 30 12:50:00 | 3h 36m | CRUDE | Yeah, this could be a really great full game - what's here is already fun and "moreish". |
| Apr 30 13:00:00 | 10m 00s | Undermind | Took me a bit to get past the first area, but was fine after that. Really nice mood! |
| Apr 30 13:11:00 | 11m 00s | Project Tethys | 56000 woop! Music sand sounds were excellent, controls could have used some more physics to increase the feel of it being a sub. Good work! |
| Apr 30 13:21:00 | 10m 00s | Seamless | Nice cuppa tea after all that hard graft down t'mine. <br/> <br/>Love the pixelart, would have been interesting to see where it could have gone. |
| Apr 30 13:34:00 | 13m 00s | Octopi: The Descent | Trippy! Didn't have a touchscreen at hand to play it properly, but still had fun once I got a handle on the controls. Nice models. |
| Apr 30 13:49:00 | 15m 00s | Greys | 7/10 secrets. The controls felt a little too slidy. |
| Apr 30 13:53:00 | 4m 00s | The Goblin Inside | I *totally* empathise with the girl. Nice game :) |
| Apr 30 14:45:00 | 52m 00s | Treasure Dive Buddy | Managed 221m! This is a lot of fun, feels good to play and has simple but good looking 3d work. Only suggestion I'd make is to have the camera pan ahead of the diver as you speed up, but I guess that may have been a concious design choice. Good work! |
| Apr 30 18:42:00 | 3h 57m | Mind the Gap | Brutal is about right... my best was 675m but that fire section is a killer. Fun game! |
| Apr 30 18:47:00 | 5m 00s | Badrock Machine | Holy wow, so much graphical goodness for 48 hours! Great stuff :) |
| Apr 30 19:02:00 | 15m 00s | Bombcano | Played it to completion! After the first couple of deaths I was expecting to quit from frustration, but thanks to clever checkpointing and solid physics I wanted to keep playing. Well done! |
| Apr 30 19:06:00 | 4m 00s | Strata Dig | Shame you didn't get more done on this, looks like a nice base to a full game! |
| Apr 30 19:12:00 | 6m 00s | Ghostlord Depths | Fun game Kyle, almost reminiscent of Gauntlet for me. Got to the boss twice but completely failed to gain vengeance! |
| Apr 30 19:33:00 | 21m 00s | Dwarves & Goblins | Wow, that's fun! Excellent graphics, great use of theme, nice music and solid gameplay. Made it to wave 23 before I accidentally collapsed my mine :[ |
| Apr 30 19:42:00 | 9m 00s | Drilling Beneath the Surface | I won with a score of 3130! This was a feel-good game. Cute sprites, but overall really easy to finish, especially as you regenerate lives after each gem. |
| Apr 30 19:58:00 | 16m 00s | One more day | It looks great, though even though I was digging when the detector was beeping as rapidly as it could I only ever found one battery :(. |
| May 1 14:39:00 | 18h 41m | Heaving of the Depths | Great job with the art, it really brought the world to life. Highly recommend getting it to a finished state post-LD! |
| May 1 18:02:00 | 3h 23m | Wireside | That's a whole lot of stuff for 3 days! I'm not really an RPG guy, but I really dug the Wireside mechanic, great work! |
| May 1 18:06:00 | 4m 00s | Ball Club | Solo player too, but I think it would be fun with another. Wondering if it would be better if you could catch your own balls - but hard to tell without actually playing against someone! |
| May 1 18:21:00 | 15m 00s | Beyond the Surface | Weird trippy exploration game, I liked the aesthetic. Once I figured out that void mode was activated only with a full mana bar, the rest was pretty simple. |
| May 1 18:29:00 | 8m 00s | Deep Sea Joyride | 107m! Nice and relaxing until you get past the ~70m mark! Also, good to see some people still flying the XNA flag ;) |
| May 1 18:37:00 | 8m 00s | Dig Up! | This was good, I liked the minecraft elements while being a totally different game :) Nice pixels. I found some mineral (silver or iron I guess) but ran out of fuel trying to get back up - doh! |
| May 2 17:37:00 | 23h 00m | Beneath the surface | Trial and error gameplay without any kind of clues really doesn't work, sorry :( |
| May 2 17:49:00 | 12m 00s | I Rarely Go Outside | Haha, this was great. I thought there was going to be some huge pay-off while I was watering all those plants but you actually made us finish the job :D |
| May 2 17:59:00 | 10m 00s | The Mantle | That was a laaaaarge download and a lot of hassle for a game that was ultimately just okay. Are you sure you need everything in that 600mb pack file?! |
| May 2 18:24:00 | 25m 00s | Water Golf | Man, this game really gets addictive after you get used to the slightly janky physics. Are the holes randomly generated? I played for a good 20 mins without seeing two the same! |
| May 4 07:28:00 | 37h 04m | our god lives underground | Astounding look and feel! |
| May 4 08:06:00 | 38m 00s | Sail | Oh my that ending - I did *not* see that coming :D |
| May 4 08:29:00 | 23m 00s | It Came From The Sewer | I had to play this as a fan of ICFTD. I'm not sure which is scarier - rats or ants! Fun game. |
| May 4 09:16:00 | 47m 00s | Please Come Back | I don't know if this was "fun", but it was definitely an interesting experience and take on theme. I drowned the first time, and the next time I cheated a little - I have a mouse that lets you disengage the clickyness on the wheel and scrolls freely for ages ;) That time I got the stay afloat/fade to black ending o/ |
| May 4 09:37:00 | 21m 00s | Running Blind | Simple, fun, hard. Nice visuals! |
| May 4 09:47:00 | 10m 00s | SubWars | I won, but it seemed kinda random? Ship 33 said they passed Big Island, so I typed 33 in the target box then clicked the radar dot closest to the big island and then got a victory screen :) |
| May 5 00:15:00 | 14h 28m | Tunnel Digger: Artifact Man | I agree with trying to avoid the player trapping themselves where possible. Having X out of Y artifacts only to have to restart interrupts the flow a little. Nevertheless, a nice game. |
| May 5 13:51:00 | 13h 36m | Rude Bear Revengeance | What a sense of speed! Amazing music and visuals with lots of juicy effects. I found it hard to get to grips with exactly how to use the grapple, but the jump/divekick combo felt good. |
| May 6 18:50:00 | 28h 59m | The Sea Has No Claim | Very topical, and extremely well executed. |
| May 6 18:53:00 | 3m 00s | Arctic Antics | Whale of a time! |
| May 6 19:01:00 | 8m 00s | DRAANG | I'm not sure what I just played, but I liked it! |
| May 6 19:04:00 | 3m 00s | Mine Explorer | Pretty pretties, shame there wasn't more game. |
| May 6 19:13:00 | 9m 00s | Down | Glorious mood and artwork, depressing ending. That's not a bad thing. |
| May 6 19:21:00 | 8m 00s | The Stones Back Home | Not a bad little runner, nice visual style. Did get an unpassable level twice though! |
| May 6 19:28:00 | 7m 00s | Hey, you!! | Great idea. Caught the thief on my first go, but failed the next three tries, so it must have been a fluke! |
| May 6 19:43:00 | 15m 00s | And the Moment Is Gone | I feel creepy now. |
| May 6 19:47:00 | 4m 00s | Switcher | Nice idea, love the pixel style. Controls felt a little unresponsive for me, and I wasn't sure why the girl's boost seemed to cut out for no reason (not being hit by a rock) |
| May 8 14:28:00 | 42h 41m | Wunderheilung | What a wonderful idea! Beautiful art. |
| May 8 14:38:00 | 10m 00s | Insane Grandpa | Less a difficulty ramp than a brick wall. Couldn't get past 666 which is a shame as I really like the controls and artwork. I just suck at timing based bosses. |
| May 8 14:42:00 | 4m 00s | Lounge Lord | Underground as feck |
| May 8 14:47:00 | 5m 00s | SWIM HARD | Cool idea, nice art! Only played solo but can definitely imagine four players getting interesting... if you could even four four players around a keyboard! |
| May 8 14:54:00 | 7m 00s | Descent | Looks *really* nice, and could be awesome if made into a full game, but the feel wasn't quite there for it to be fun. |
| May 8 14:58:00 | 4m 00s | Atomicle - LostAutumn.net | Fantastic presentation. Was expecting a puzzle game from the screenshots, was pleasantly surprised to find it wasn't. |
| May 8 15:02:00 | 4m 00s | Epilepsy | It would have taken me 6 hours just to do that tearing effect, so kudos! The game wasn't much fun, but the mood and style were brilliant. |
