Apr 29 05:35:00 Beneath the Surf-Ace Awesome graphics, gameplay felt pretty smooth and enjoyable. I could cheat a bit by making the dolphin ram into boats and swim along the surface - I had a 6 boat pileup going on at one point.
Apr 29 05:38:00 3m 00s Hungry Dolphin I like the way you tutorialized it. After reaching level 2, I sent my dolphin on an exploratory mission to the bottom of the ocean. He did not return.
Apr 29 05:42:00 4m 00s Mole Position I'm into the wall climbing thing, but the controls were really hard to get used to. I kept getting stuck on things I didn't intend to stick myself to.
Apr 29 05:46:00 4m 00s Evolve Killer graphics. Web version didn't work for me either, I was disappointed until I saw the note.
Apr 29 05:50:00 4m 00s Under the bed Ah the thing got me - I didn't even see it coming. The pace felt pretty frustrating after I figured out what was going on. All I wanted to do was hold down shift or something and slowly walk.
Apr 29 05:54:00 4m 00s Cave of Jagnog I played it all the way to the end, keep working on it! <br/> <br/>I like how you tutorialized it, but there's an issue at the start. You need to move before you can see the tutorial step that says how to move - a tricky thing.
Apr 29 06:01:00 7m 00s Super Surface Shape Shifter I had a pretty good time with this actually. I didn't pick it up right away, but a quick trial and error made it super early to learn. I kept trying to save shapes for later, but it's tough. The difficulty curve felt a bit slow, though, overall.
Apr 29 06:05:00 4m 00s Dark Moles! I do enjoy a good mole bombing every once in a while. I couldn't figure out where the hitboxes were on those darn moles though, i'd see it explode right overtop of them, but they kept on living.
Apr 29 06:08:00 3m 00s Beneath The Mountain I got majorly axed up. I couldn't figure out how to effectively attack though...
Apr 29 06:13:00 5m 00s Turn-A Totally BS!: Turn Up a Dig Site I didn't know where to click at first - I thought the play button would link to your website or something, whoops.
Apr 29 06:31:00 18m 00s Ben Eath the Surf Ace Radical game! I'm into the art style for sure, gameplay felt a bit slow at times though. I was using a keyboard, though, I might give it another go with a controller later.
Apr 29 06:33:00 2m 00s Ben Eath The Surf Ace Game wouldn't load, unfortunately.
Apr 29 06:36:00 3m 00s Ben Eath the Surf Ace I wish I could be part time surfer, full time cool dude.
Apr 29 06:44:00 8m 00s Ben is the Surf Ace 107! It would be nice if there were more obstacles, but still pretty solid all around.
Apr 29 06:48:00 4m 00s Surf Ace My first playthrough I had no idea what I was doing (I skipped the tutorial, but couldn't see it again for some reason). The second playthrough, I was whipping sea animals out of the ocean left right and center. Neat idea.
Apr 29 06:50:00 2m 00s Surf Ace I see a black screen, and my dude is getting totally smashed by something every once in a while. I gave it a few refreshes, but to no avail.
Apr 29 06:52:00 2m 00s Surf Ace Splashdown I didn't read the description at first, so I had an 'aha' moment after I saw the surfboard moving around on it's own. I like it.
Apr 29 06:58:00 6m 00s Submersion This is actually super fun with two players. The first playthrough as single player was memorable at least - I sank, helplessly, as the green dude did nothing. <br/> <br/>Best game i've played yet.
Apr 29 07:02:00 4m 00s Burn a Moleman I played on a laptop, so it was extra thinking... but still, I like it.
Apr 29 07:07:00 5m 00s It Came From... Beneath!! Nice - controls remind me of my game, although with a worm instead of a surfer. If the worm could also do tricks, that would be radical. <br/> <br/>Despite a lack of polish, I still had fun launching my worm around. Don't take that quote out of context.
Apr 29 07:14:00 7m 00s The Westport Independent If they had 6's I'd be handing a few of those out right now. After seeing the screenshots, I got my hopes up and you guys delivered. <br/> <br/>Superb game, loved the style and the gameplay. Controls were a bit tough on the papers sometimes, but I worked out a system.
Apr 29 08:46:00 1h 32m Alien Lobotomy Pretty interesting, took a while to figure out but it was worthwhile.
Apr 29 08:48:00 2m 00s Sharks VS Jets: Fingeance My sharks had a mind of their own, it seemed. I couldn't control them, and in the end the sharks defeated me. Still had fun though.
Apr 29 08:53:00 5m 00s Kill or Kill That was the most pleasant laundry basket i've ever talked to in a game. <br/> <br/>The garbage bag needs to learn some manners, though. Nobody can boss me around like that. <br/> <br/>I had a good time, the gameplay is simple but effective. Some of the collision areas were a bit tricky. I got taken down by the fuzz more times than I care to admit.
Apr 30 03:32:00 18h 39m Jumpland Underground Neat concept - gameplay felt well executed. Personally I liked the level of difficulty, most games are too easy these days.
Apr 30 03:37:00 5m 00s Geofront Solid! One issue I noticed is that while i was madly rapping the Z key, i died and instantly restarted, and had no idea what was going on (until the second time i died).
Apr 30 03:48:00 11m 00s Shanghai I couldn't figure it out at all in the beginning (I did ignore the instructions though, so there's that...), but once I got into a groove it was pretty satisfying. I still didn't have a good handle on whether or not I was going to lose or not though, I just kept connecting things and racking up points.
Apr 30 04:05:00 17m 00s Sky Shepherd I didn't really get the connection to the theme at all, but I still had a pretty decent time rolling sheep around.
Apr 30 04:10:00 5m 00s Drowning in Problems Excellent usage of Dart :) <br/> <br/>I too, was reminded of games like cookie clicker and candy box, but this one did feel like it had more meaning than simply clicking away.
Apr 30 21:07:00 16h 57m Fake Zoo Great concept and use of the theme. Randomly mashing the controls was fun at first but got boring quickly.
Apr 30 21:16:00 9m 00s A Glorious Escape for A Lich King Fun game with a good amount of polish. Tower defense has been done to death but the twist was nice.
Apr 30 21:23:00 7m 00s Forgotten Sea It feels nice an polished - solid art and sound. Seems like it could be a good game if it was expanded further.
Apr 30 22:13:00 50m 00s our god lives underground Atmosphere and style are top notch.
May 1 07:06:00 8h 53m Heaving of the Depths That art style is fantastic. All the small touches like the transparency beneath the clouds and the distortion on the underwater elements made it feel really slick. If you keep working on it, I would totally play it. <br/> <br/>On a more constructive note: the battle system did feel like it needed some more depth. It got a bit repetitive, and after a few battles I was more interested in seeing possible new artwork than actually fighting the battles.
May 2 04:54:00 21h 48m Hollow Earth It reminded me of the game of thrones intro sorta - pretty neat concept, doing a full game in a world like that could be amazing. I'd love to see some game mechanics that take advantage of this hollow world you've got goin on.
May 2 06:00:00 1h 06m SUNK I started to play through a second time, but realized that no matter how well my dude did, he was still going to have the same fate. I let him down gently.
May 2 06:17:00 17m 00s Down I remember your entry from the last time I did LD, so I had pretty high expectations, but it was even better than I thought. I really enjoyed playing through to end. Audio is top notch, as usual. Please keep making these!
May 2 06:27:00 10m 00s CELL WARS I think this idea has some good potential. If it were a bit faster paced, and the units a bit easier to manage I could easily spend a good hour on this. I kept breaking the game somehow by zooming in too far (osx, playing the jar standalone) - things would get unresponsive and I couldn't zoom back out. I like that the organs hide the units inside them, makes it more fun keeping track of who's where.
May 2 06:34:00 7m 00s Under Your Skin That guy looks pretty badass at the end with his monocle sunglasses thing (or is it an eyepatch?). I had some difficulty with the controls, and kept crushing myself under the elevator, but I really like the concept. Add some special abilities to the hosts and add some puzzles to solve and i'd play it for sure.
May 2 06:47:00 13m 00s Drilling Enthusiast I thought this was pretty awesome. I didn't like having to jetpack around to see all the meters though, and sometimes the controls were tough to handle. I can see lots of potential though. I ended up getting stuck outside my drill in the end.
May 2 06:53:00 6m 00s VRAM hacker Pretty interesting, a new twist on a classic mechanic.
May 3 01:51:00 18h 58m The fight beneath the surface Nice touch with the voice acting.
