| Dec 8 09:35:00 | Twisted Fantasie | Interesting take on a turnbased moba. I found it really frustrating that I can't defend the base on my own, or even stop an enemy mob from progressing towards it. Is there some way to damage or fight them while they're on the move? | |
| Dec 8 09:37:00 | 2m 00s | Sawrvive | Nice, simple and fun. Gets a bit repetitive though. |
| Dec 8 09:55:00 | 18m 00s | Find The Squares | As a colour blind person, thanks for using really high contrast, it's at least playable. It's still pretty panic inducing for me having to search for things in a huge patch of random colours though. |
| Dec 8 10:10:00 | 15m 00s | Keep it on the screen! | Nice! <br/> <br/>Interesting take on the theme, it was a tough one to interpret meaningfully. <br/> <br/>Sometimes I felt the game was a bit too forgiving of bad shots where I'd only got part of one or both of the targets, or only had them in frame for a split second as I panned past. <br/> <br/>With games in this vein where you're taking pictures of things I usually end up kind of wanting to see the shots I took afterwards to laugh at how bad they are. |
| Dec 8 10:37:00 | 27m 00s | Orb Fetch: GOLD | Whee, got to the end. Pretty hard to get over the instinct to treat it like a normal thruster, and oh man that level where you're surrounded by spikey things is harsh. Fun and interesting mechanic though. <br/> <br/>Is the link to the theme that it's all sort of one screen that you're just going through layers of through the distorty bits? |
| Dec 8 10:45:00 | 8m 00s | Pyramid of death | Nice! The controls feel just right, you say you've got to escape as many times as you died to win, but I feel like I won just by getting out the once. :P |
| Dec 8 10:57:00 | 12m 00s | Snowman's Quest | Fun! <br/> <br/>I am pretty sure the snowman is the bad guy here, murdering lumberjacks and stealing carrots from rabbits. Towards the end I was half-expecting the cops or army to come in to try and take down the monster. <br/> <br/>Gameplay wise I felt like the difficulty was a bit flat and on the easy side, there didn't seem to be any more or harder obstacles towards the end than at the start and I won on the first try. I couldn't really tell how near the tree was to being destroyed, how many hits does it take? |
| Dec 8 22:21:00 | 11h 24m | Rainbow Maze | Aaaaa, so big! Really nice use of the theme. |
| Dec 8 22:26:00 | 5m 00s | Escape from the Credits | Those names. Those beautiful, awful Simpsons prank call names. Had to complete it to groan at them all. Got 54. |
| Dec 8 22:54:00 | 28m 00s | Cell #327 | So awesome in the art and atmosphere and theme use, I'm not usually a fan of point and clicks, but it works well in this enclosed space. <br/> <br/>Got the third then first endings, but now on the third runthrough it's not letting me walk and the bed won't come out, might be some state you're not clearing between runs somewhere? |
| Dec 9 13:20:00 | 14h 26m | Mr Snowman Visits Forbidden Temple | You win this round, Mister Snowman. <br/> <br/>Good use of pitch-shifting. Also good use of vocal chords. |
| Dec 11 18:09:00 | 52h 49m | Dark Matter | I will have been going to be fixing that mess. |
| Dec 13 12:09:00 | 42h 00m | Night Care | Can't run the game on Windows 8 either. |
| Dec 13 13:38:00 | 1h 29m | The Unlikely Adventures of Peggy LeDig | Really polished graphics and a simple concept which works well. Couple notes: <br/> <br/>A few of the goals (like the 9999 gold and 500 items ones) seem really grindy, especially when I've unlocked almost everything else. Also, by the time you've got to those the bonuses don't feel like they'd mean much any more. <br/> <br/>It'd be nice to have something else purchasable as a trade-off against paying to keep your luck. <br/> <br/>Once you've got a high base luck I think it makes it really hard to complete the lower level quests, I'm stuck needing 3 smelly items and haven't seen any for ages. |
| Dec 13 20:23:00 | 6h 45m | Pengie | Whee penguins, and the graphics are really polished and super cute! The movement felt on the floaty side to me though, which kind of makes sense with it being on ice but was a bit frustrating when trying to be precise. |
| Dec 13 20:45:00 | 22m 00s | Confessional | Awww, nice. I so wanted to run those taunting files in the privacy screen, or to save the confession somewhere. First time through I made up a confession which was pretty over the top, so there was just so, so much slightly creepy awkward guilt. |
| Dec 13 21:16:00 | 31m 00s | snow | Awesome! Really cute and relaxing, will have to give it to the kids to play around with on Android. Had to resort to a test snowball in the end because I managed to completely lose one of the lumps of coal after I foolishly melted it and sent it over a cliff, could maybe fix that by having them respawn after a while if they're left somewhere off-camera? <br/> <br/>It took a while to get used to the locking on, but felt okay once I had. |
| Dec 17 12:00:00 | 86h 44m | Fireguy | The level could probably do with having much less open space, a lot of the fun of Bomberman was managing to trap people. It's also kind of annoying that how bombs block explosions without chaining. <br/> <br/>Those just bug me 'cause I'm used to them from Bomberman though and you should totally go your own direction with it if you carry on with this, definitely better than nothing and still pretty satisfying to blow stuff up. |
| Dec 20 22:08:00 | 82h 08m | Duck, Jump, Die | Looks nice and the controls feel pretty good, but the gameplay is a bit too simplistic to keep me interested at the moment. |
| Dec 20 22:28:00 | 20m 00s | Solus | Nice! Enjoyed this, so hard though. Got up to ~400, the preset high score of 1000 seems a bit harsh. |
| Dec 23 15:16:00 | 64h 48m | Snow Box | Cool snowman. <br/> <br/>The gameplay is fun and the pacing is pretty good. I think I'd prefer it with more acceleration (with maybe a lower max speed) though. |
| Dec 27 15:25:00 | 96h 09m | Blue Window | Ohh, I like your interpretation of the theme! The first few puzzles felt a bit light on the puzzle and heavy on the platforming, in that the solution was mostly "activate all the things". Enjoyed where you went with them though. <br/> <br/>I think I'd prefer it if there was a bit less emphasis on accurate jumps, I always find them kind of frustrating and sort of weird in a first person view. |
