| Aug 25 03:55:00 | Outer Body | Fun little game with some unique gameplay. I like the simplicity in the controls and the pixel character's walk cycle. The music has that perfect "spooky" vibe. I think if there was one thing that could be improved, it's the interface. There's text going off the screen, aligned funny, etc. But overall I enjoyed it, got around 1800 points! | |
| Aug 25 04:17:00 | 22m 00s | Last Call For Magrathea | Well, it took me a little while to get the hang of it but in the end it was pretty fun. Somehow I ended with a population of -25, lol. My highest was 995. Those people use too many damn toothbrushes. I think you know the main weakness of the game is the placement of the menus, i.e. the "items needed" window being too far from the other windows. A static interface would probably have been easier to use. But I want you to know the sound effects and the "item needed" voiceovers are great! It makes it feel like you're really controlling the flow of the space toothbrushes. Thanks for submitting. I had fun! |
| Aug 25 04:28:00 | 11m 00s | Frog, Raccoon, Mosquito | LOL, what a crazy game. I love the concept, and the fact that the setting stays the same each time you transform. It makes the worlds seem very connected (aha!). Anyway, I'm not sure which one's hardest... probably the raccoon. The frog's controls are the most difficult but it's easy to catch mosquitos on accident. The mosquito's controls are crazy, lol, they glitch sometimes but in a fun way. Great work! |
| Aug 25 04:41:00 | 13m 00s | From Earth To Mars | I enjoyed your literal interpretation of the theme, haha. It made perfect sense-- simple and straightforward. I couldn't get past level 3. Guess I'm not cut out for interplanetary travel. The physics on the asteroids is a little strange but I'm impressed with how well it works. Oh, and the splash screen is beautiful! Altogether a really solid game. |
| Aug 25 04:48:00 | 7m 00s | Tangled Chalkboard Planets | Wow, what a well-polished game! The gameplay is flawless and effortlessly fun. The style is great too-- reminds me a little of Yoshi's Island but with a spiffy chalkboard feel. This could be a really fun mobile game if you continue to work on it! |
| Aug 25 05:00:00 | 12m 00s | Interplanetary Messengers | I really liked the concept as well but... I found the controls really cumbersome. It's hard to get around! I never made it to the next planet. The stylization of the graphics and the chiptuney sound effects give the game a great mood, but the gameplay is just too tough. Nice music. |
| Aug 25 05:02:00 | 2m 00s | interball | Straightforward gameplay and beautiful design. The timer bar around the frame is my favorite part. Great work! |
| Aug 25 05:19:00 | 17m 00s | Galaxy Saviour | Awww yeah, #1 on the high scores... for a few minutes, anyway. OK so I liked the concept of the game, destroying asteroids and things to protect the planet. The ship was a little hard to control though, just because the environment is so large, I think. Another thing that made it difficult was the asteroids' dark brown color against the black background. I was squinting trying to see them. I love doing barrel rolls though, so fun! And the font you chose was perfect -- what is it? I'm impressed you got a high score list up and running within the time frame. |
| Aug 25 05:25:00 | 6m 00s | One Ship Two Ship Redshift Blueshift | SO CRAZY GOOD. I love the trails on the space ships and all of the particles So much detail. It's a well-rounded game from start to finish. The music is so catchy and the sound effects are just perfect! Love love love the start screen. It's beautiful and modern. |
| Aug 25 05:34:00 | 9m 00s | Song of the Dodo | The weirdest game I've played by far. In a good way. The spawning of the pigs/goats is hilarious. Of course the concept is 100% unique too. Lots of games about outer space, several about ghosts... only 1 game about dodo birds. If there was a uniqueness award, you'd have won it. The game is really challenging too. Nice work! |
| Aug 26 01:46:00 | 20h 12m | Gorilla Warfare | That was... interesting. I couldn't make it more than 3 seconds in the game before I collided with a red wisp or the collision detection broke. So yeah, virtually unplayable. But I do really like the walk cycle and the jump animation! |
| Aug 26 01:52:00 | 6m 00s | Secret Place | You could probably make an industry out of this game. Love how vague and open it is to interpretation. I didn't have any problem reading the text (in Chrome) so I'm not sure what the other reviewers are talking about. <br/> <br/>The word "exist" leads to a blank page though. If that's on purpose-- good job, I think it's poignant and serves its purpose. If it's not on purpose... oh well. It was a game jam. Enjoyed it, thanks for making it! |
| Aug 26 02:10:00 | 18m 00s | Heroes on Wings of Steel and Fire | Interesting little game, I like the concept and how you expanded on the genre. Nice sound and minimalist graphics too. I have to admit the controls were confusing at first. I didn't realize the fire button was the "/" key. Something about the way "? - Fire Primary" looks is confusing. Anyway, the rest of it is pretty straightforward and fun. Nice work! |
| Aug 26 02:18:00 | 8m 00s | Galaxy Bowling | First time using Unity AND first game jam?... No way. I'm seriously impressed. I like that the puzzle aspects of gameplay (e.g. limiting the number of shots you can take) are gone-- the frustration of restarting a level over and over isn't worth it. Sometimes it's fun to just shoot missiles all over the place. Anyway, the gameplay is a blast (ha ha ha) and the gravity system you've made is really nice. No bugs as far as I could tell. I couldn't get past the 6th level or so (the one that's in the thumbnail). Anyway, thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks for submitting!! |
| Aug 26 02:39:00 | 21m 00s | Reminisce | OS/X version worked great. Very nice game! I'm impressed with the engine-- seems to work very well. No glitches as far as I could tell. Graphics were meh but that's not really the point of the exercise, obviously. The gameplay was actually FUN! And I liked your take on the theme. The editor made no sense to me but that's okay. Thanks for submitting, it was interesting! |
| Aug 26 02:51:00 | 12m 00s | Oooover the double rainbow (Baldaquin IV) | Took me a while but I finally figured it out! The concept is very interesting and a nice take on the 'connected worlds.' But it was tough to see how they were connected at first. The color palette could've been a little less harsh on the ol' eyeballs too. I got to the first key and died, which puts you all the way back at the start, so I'd say the game is pretty tedious. Also, the 'game over' screen is downright frightening, lol. Anyway, it was... unique. Enjoyed it. |
| Aug 26 02:56:00 | 5m 00s | The Crossover Episode | Congrats on your first game. The ending was really unique haha. I won't give it away though. <br/> <br/>Hard to see how this fits the theme without your description on the website. Also, I don't know if anyone else had this problem, but the text was very dark and tiny, making it hard for me to read. Of course the movement speed is way too slow but you probably already knew that. If you do another adventure game like this, I'd work on styling the text a little better. Overall I enjoyed it, thanks for submitting! |
| Aug 27 01:20:00 | 22h 24m | Peak | Nice job, guys! I really like the mood of the game and the soothing color palette + music. Your game is HARD but it's truly fun once you get the hang of it. Your take on the theme was perfect! Looking forward to see what else you make. |
| Aug 27 01:26:00 | 6m 00s | Coral | I love the way the music matches the graphics. It reminds me of data-moshing too. REALLY crazy concept! Getting totally disorienting is sort of a fun release. Fun and strange. |
| Aug 27 01:41:00 | 15m 00s | Isra & Miraj: "A Night Journey" | Love the use of voice + visual collage. It's got a unique theme too. Excited to see what you come up with next. |
| Aug 27 01:48:00 | 7m 00s | SHIT RUNNER | The voiceovers are excellent. And those particle effects... whoah. Finally, a game whose theme I can truly identify with. |
