| Dec 8 08:58:00 | Straight Trippin' | I think it's an interesting idea. It left me a little confused on the first go. When that popup said click hear to see the glorious sounds, I didn't understand at first. I thought it might have been a link to your soundcloud or something. But to be fair, that was probably just me being incredibly thick! <br/> <br/>I liked the atmospheric talking sounds. I liked the idea of the game, but to be honest, rather than feeling tension, I just got bored waiting. I think there is something in the idea of only hitting that button at the right time, but maybe there is a way of making the whole thing faster and more intense. Colors and shapes all over the screen going crazy. The music could be a lot faster. Perhaps you could have the word "NOW" or "Just Push it!" as a chorus. And most importantly I think it would be better if I didn't have to wait nearly as long before i have to push the button. | |
| Dec 8 09:26:00 | 28m 00s | Colored Ninjas | Very impressive! I liked the music and graphics. As soon as I moved the window and the game moved I was blown away because I've never seen that done before. It really adds a sense of exploration. I had three goes and the second and third times I got to the final crystal and died. I think I would have preferred less Ninjas and being able to dodge their attacks. As it was the gameplay got a bit monotonous. But I think with some tweaking this could really turn into something. And great use of the theme! |
| Dec 8 11:17:00 | 1h 51m | CRUSH | I didn't realize it was a two player game at first so I was trying to do it all myself, which I would really enjoy but as a single player it's too hard. Those walls would need to start off slower. I don't have anyone to play with but I bet it would be really good fun with two players. Music and sounds were excellent. Graphics were very good. And I thought it was very original. It would be nice if it had a stop button so I didn't have to mute the sound to hear myself think enough to give you feedback. : ) <br/> <br/>Overall 4 <br/>Innovation 4 <br/>Fun 4 (i'm guessing what it would be like with two players) <br/>Theme 3 <br/>Graphics 4 <br/>Audio 5 <br/>Humor 2 <br/>Mood 4 |
| Dec 8 11:33:00 | 16m 00s | Shopping Preventor! | I like the original idea and it was fun. I liked the game mechanic a lot, especially how you get a second chance to get them on the way back. <br/> <br/>The graphics were simple but did the job. (a billion times better than my own entry). The look would have felt more complete, if instead of changing the mouse cursor to a square, you had changed it to a hand. Good on you for having a go at making music. Music is very time consuming. Unfortunately only one bar of music repeated over and over quickly gets annoying. Of course you know this that's why there is a giant mute button. I think it would have been better to have had some simple sound effects, which could have added to the humor. People could shout at you as you push them. <br/> <br/>I couldn't see a restart button? So I had to refresh the page each time to play again. |
| Dec 8 16:46:00 | 5h 13m | Find The Squares | I like the idea of the game a lot. Simple but original which is my favorite type of game. I could imagine newspapers printed this along with word searches. I found it far too hard though. If it only had levels of increasing difficulty to lure me in. Start of with much fewer squares. I thought the color wheel timer was a nice touch. I hope you keep adding to this after the competition because I think it could really be good. I would be nice to have the option to pick the colors. Shouldn't be hard to implement and it helps color blind people. The yellow and the green almost look the same to me. |
| Dec 8 17:04:00 | 18m 00s | Dead Pixel | Love it! Totally my kind of thing. I love games with a simple original concept like this. 5 stars for fun. Music was pretty good too. Graphics were simple but effective. |
| Dec 8 17:25:00 | 21m 00s | Lightpong | I thought it was a really clever use of the theme as pong might the most famous one screened game of all. And I think you certainty changed it enough to make it your own. I like the fact you have the strategy element of should I hit the ball or get the power up. |
| Dec 8 18:10:00 | 45m 00s | Not Making It | I got to level 31. I kept thinking it was going to get harder but it didn't. I'm not even sure what quick time events are so maybe the easy gameplay is some kind of in joke that I don't get. I thought overall presentation was really good though. The music suited the mood of the game, and it drive me to crazy even after hearing the same bar about a 1000 times! |
| Dec 8 18:58:00 | 48m 00s | Warehouse Willy | I loved this. A very original concept, and I enjoyed stacking the boxes in neatly. $245 was my highest after 3 goes. I will definitely keep playing.I liked the fork lift driver. I think as it steals the packages, and I have to wait for him to go to carry on, he should wizz by much faster. The music drove me crazy and I had to mute it, but it had the right kind of sound. It just needs more bars. The controls felt a bit slippery. I had difficultly moving the package over by just one space as it went so quick. That popup that says I'm trying to place it where there is already a box was annoying. A buzz sound effect might be a better way of letting the player know. <br/> <br/>Well done. This is definitely something I would play. |
| Dec 8 19:37:00 | 39m 00s | FindeTheN | I don't get it either. Also I don't think it's all on one screen like the theme suggests. It looks cute though. How am I supposed to know what the correct number sequence is? Do I just guess, or learn it? Is it some clever puzzle? |
| Dec 8 20:13:00 | 36m 00s | A Sketchy Game | Really beautiful looking game! You get 5 stars for graphics that's for sure! I found the gameplay a little dull though, but I think that's just personal taste. |
| Dec 8 20:22:00 | 9m 00s | Chroma Maze | Really fun game. Although on my last go there was no possible way to get to the exit. Still very enjoyable. The music was pretty good too. |
| Dec 8 20:33:00 | 11m 00s | Pavarocket | Graphics are brilliant. Sound effects and music are brilliant, although having said that it would be cool to hear the instruments make a sound when he plays them. <br/> <br/>As stunning as it looks and sounds and I didn't think the gameplay was very interesting. I would have found it fun if when you sat at a piano you then had to play something for a while. Maybe some notation could pop up with keyboard letters underneath. |
| Dec 8 20:50:00 | 17m 00s | -CHAMBER- | This is pretty fun. It's almost got me hooked. And i think with a few alterations I would really like it. <br/> <br/>I found waiting for blocks to reach me before I could start annoying. It took too long and as I was dying so often I felt like half the time playing was just waiting. <br/> <br/>I think it would be good if I could pick up the blocks and carry them above my head and throw them. At the moment it just seemed like luck when I got one. |
| Dec 9 00:01:00 | 3h 11m | Kram Keep | This looks so good! I thought to myself it would be cool to make a platform game with tiny sprites and huge playing area on one screen....but I didn't have the knowledge or skills to make it. So this is really exciting for me to play this. It's awesome. Well done. For some reason there is no place for me to give star ratings on this page. Have you disabled them? |
| Dec 9 08:34:00 | 8h 33m | Sanic Sokoban | It was nice to play a game that had even worse graphics and audio than my own! |
| Dec 9 09:00:00 | 26m 00s | Yibbits | I gave you 5 start for overall but I'm seriously impressed! This is like a complete polished game that I would play. And I will be playing it later. <br/> <br/>Great use of the theme. I know the visuals are just shapes but it looks so pretty. And the music sounds like it looks. You really did a good job capturing the mood of the visuals with the sound. I like the way the music had a muffled sound because this stopped it from becoming annoying and made it just fall into the background. <br/> <br/>I found the gameplay very addictive. |
| Dec 9 09:13:00 | 13m 00s | Convey | It looks and sound great. Great use of the theme. The game seemed to be in slow motion. Not sure if that was the intention of if my computer was just struggling to run it.Are the jumps supposed to be incredibly slow? <br/> <br/>I noticed those white things with the face moves on the conveyor belt and a quicker pace than everything else. |
| Dec 10 18:44:00 | 33h 31m | Shiftavoid | Good fun, and good use of the theme. The music is pretty good considering the time frame. I wonder if it would be better, instead of dying when you hit a wall, if you just start at the beginning of that level. You are on timer anyway so it shouldn't make it too easy. |
| Dec 10 18:50:00 | 6m 00s | Underwater Fortress | I must be being thick but I haven't got a clue what I'm supposed to do? I clicked on the big square and built a farm, and clicked and the little square and built a gun. Then what? how do I shoot the aliens? <br/> <br/>Sorry if i'm missing something obvious! |
| Dec 11 19:52:00 | 25h 02m | On The Field | You should have used a streaker rather than a cat! It was pretty fun. The graphics looks nice. The crowd loop would have been better if it was a bit longer. The first game took me ages to find where the cat starts at. |
| Dec 13 23:35:00 | 51h 43m | Cold Snap (Vegas rules) | I started playing without reading any instructions and I thought it was just going to be as simple as finding the snowman but there was a lot more too it then I thought there was going to be and it was a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to playing it again in a second now I know all the rules. I like the strategy element I like the fact that you don't actually ever lose and it's up to you to quit when the going is good. Just like real gambling. The graphics and sound were good, and the whole thing was polished. The performance got bad after level 40 for me. You can cheat by clicking the cash out button just to pause it and still continue to look for the snowman. |
| Dec 14 09:26:00 | 9h 51m | Oust Santa! | I couldn't get it to work. It loads than just freezes up the web page. <br/>I had to copy and paste this comment in. I could here the music though <br/>and that was 5 out of 5 easy. It sounded like it had an edward scissor hands type of vibe. |
| Dec 14 19:14:00 | 9h 48m | Against All Odds | Not the most original concept but done really really well! The audio was brilliant. I stayed on the start menu longer than necessary just listening to the music. The gun fires, zombies sounds and that sound when you zoom in were all excellent. All that adds to make the game more addictive. <br/> <br/>The graphics were brilliant. The only criticism (and i feel embarrassed to make any criticisms of your graphics when my game was just letters on a black background!) is I noticed the zombies all looked better than the main character. That kind of looked a bit plain in comparison. The game seemed very hard but I'm slowly getting better it at. I'm gonna go play it some more! Well done this was excellent. |
| Dec 14 19:27:00 | 13m 00s | Shellac's dream on an entire screen | Beautiful artwork. I liked the music, but I'm guessing you didn't record that yourself, please correct me if I'm wrong so I can give you 5 for sound. A great experience. But there didn't seem to be any game in there other than running around. The artwork and atmosphere were so brilliant though. |
| Dec 15 09:12:00 | 13h 45m | ICE MAN | The most addictive and rewarding game I've played so far. I like it because at first it seems impossibly hard, but if you stick with it you do start showing improvement quite quickly and get real sense of pride with your score. That's kind of what happened to flappy bird and that did alright! My highest so far is 28.40 seconds. I really like the look and music too. |
| Dec 15 15:15:00 | 6h 03m | SnoZonE | You definitely get 5 out of 5 for mood! Very creepy and immersive game. Great graphics and audio. I got bored of it before I'd finished my first game though, as it just seemed to go on forever. Still, with some gameplay tweeking, this could be the next Doom! |
| Dec 15 17:11:00 | 1h 56m | Summoning of the Santa | Loved the graphics and style. The music was great too. It really added a sense of urgency. I enjoyed it very much! I solved the last one but I'm not sure why it worked. |
| Dec 15 20:03:00 | 2h 52m | Critter Blaster Extreme - Judge and Jury | I thought this was really good fun. It reminded me of Tapper, but obviously a lot more violent! The graphics were excellent, and it was great seeing new characters on each round. I enjoyed the control system. Usually when games ask you to buy weapons and upgrade and all that crap I find it really boring but this was simple, and added a nice amount of depth to the game. The game couldn't fit all on my screen. Also I had real problems clicking back onto this tab. |
| Dec 16 17:01:00 | 20h 58m | Runny Square | Loved it. So far 18 is my highest. |
| Dec 16 18:11:00 | 1h 10m | Walled | Good game. The only thing stopping me from playing it another time is finger exhaustion! |
| Dec 17 08:38:00 | 14h 27m | Lumit | It looks really great! The game is very polished. I admire the original gameplay, but at the same time I didn't really find it that compelling. It felt a bit too random. Usually I love simple games but something just felt missing. |
| Dec 18 07:41:00 | 23h 03m | Snow Problem | Very clever. Love the graphics. 5 out of 5 for innovation! |
| Dec 18 08:25:00 | 44m 00s | Fire Tactics | I think this has the potential to be a really great game. Something that I would definitely play. It's very impressive that you got it this polished in such a short time. The graphics are great. I think the gameplay just needs some tweeking. |
| Dec 18 08:35:00 | 10m 00s | Dock and Cover | you must be a hell of a fast reader judging by how long those instructions stay on the screen! <br/> <br/>I think it's good that it's hard. If it was easy it would be pointless. Love the gameplay. Really good fun. |
| Dec 21 16:39:00 | 80h 04m | Glow Drop | I really liked the graphics and overall presentation. It was very polished, so well done! I didn't enjoy the gameplay. I've just played far too many of these games recently and just found it too unoriginal. I liked the in game music, but I wasn't a fan of the menu screen music. |
| Dec 22 17:17:00 | 24h 38m | SnowCard | Nice sounds, graphics, and original gameplay. But I just didn't find it fun, sorry. |
