Dec 8 02:55:00		Disco Pixel Art	Love this, very unique and experimental. I enjoyed it!
Dec 8 03:07:00	12m 00s	Galaxia	I enjoyed Galaxia - nice interface, and really nice twist on the theme. The initial grind to get some resources was a bit long (I AFK'd to let my numbers grow, but then science became a bottle neck). Overall a great entry!
Dec 8 04:03:00	56m 00s	Maze Escape	Wow - blown away by the number of features you implemented. Great work! I got stuck in the bottom left (I think) directly below the water rooms. Only missing the yellow key! Really enjoyed playing this.
Dec 8 04:15:00	12m 00s	Random Name Attack	Hey, very cool for a first game! I liked playing it. If you're looking for an area to improve: the controls felt a little slow or clunky at times. But overall very nice!
Dec 8 04:20:00	5m 00s	Cardinal Attack	Wow - really great game! Pretty intense, but I improved as I played it more. Couldn't quite get to 2 minutes, but had a blast. 8 hours sleep? It paid off! Great entry!
Dec 8 04:25:00	5m 00s	Star Grabber	Interesting - really enjoyed what I played. After I got to 7, none of the levels had stars anymore? Also had some minor movement bugs at this point. <br/> <br/>After going through 3 empty levels it restarted the game? Perhaps I'm missing something and this was supposed to happen / some stars were hidden.
Dec 8 04:38:00	13m 00s	Last Ark	Very strong - I really enjoyed my time with Last Ark. I think I actually won? It said symbiotes are gone, and humans survived on the new planet? Either way, I found it very endearing. <br/> <br/>One other thought - the beep boop boop beep beep sound is hilarious, but after a while could use some randomness or variation. <br/> <br/>Overall a great entry!
Dec 8 04:42:00	4m 00s	Visit	Pretty cool! Obviously kind of off the wall, but I thought it was interesting. The rain / background is awesome. I'd love some music to fit the mood too.
Dec 8 04:48:00	6m 00s	Tiny Bit	Very nice entry. You got a lot done! Some sound would really take it to the next level, but obviously there's only so much you can do in 48 hours. The world is impressively large, and I liked the color coded worlds. I'm stuck on the green world, the second room from the right. With the two red blocks before the flag, with no room to jump. Any hints?
Dec 8 04:53:00	5m 00s	Color Company	Aaackk my hand! That was a lot of clicking =D Very nice concept, it's relaxing to play. I'm actually not a big fan of this style of game, but I still enjoyed yours! Nice work.
Dec 8 04:58:00	5m 00s	Slope Challenge³	Very cool - it's a unique twist compared to most of the games I'm seeing from this compo. I actually found it quite challenging, but enjoyed it. I agree that switching blocks could be streamlined. Nice entry.
Dec 8 05:02:00	4m 00s	Speismonster	This seems really cool, but yikes it's hard to get past those controls. I tried for a while but eventually gave up as I constantly felt out of control. I like the game world and would have liked to explore it more.
Dec 8 05:18:00	16m 00s	Beat Bop Delicious	Haha very nice! I was only making it into the 1:10 range. A lot of times I would get a double jump for only one click on the switches. So I'd overshoot the light that I wanted. <br/> <br/>Great concept and execution. Really enjoyed it!
Dec 8 05:23:00	5m 00s	Escape The Abyss	Really impressive - the click to move control scheme reminds me a bit of playing DOTA. This is a lot of work for 48 hours! <br/> <br/>A small matter, but I agree with a previous commenter that the ice could be... icier :D <br/> <br/>Anyway, very nice, I enjoyed playing.
Dec 9 04:52:00	23h 29m	Space Opera	Very cool art and setting. I eventually let myself die after 150 seconds - is there an ending? I dig the creativity! The artwork definitely stands out.
Dec 9 04:56:00	4m 00s	Rringo	Hmm, I can't get anything to happen? The background looks good, and I have music, but nothing responds to clicks. Chrome/mac here. Perhaps I'm missing something.
Dec 9 05:02:00	6m 00s	1 Screen	That was entertaining - it took me a silly amount of time to think of throwing the boomerang UP, but once I did I had a lot of fun exploring the different mechanics that kept appearing. Why did you opt out of sound ratings? I enjoyed the song and throwing noise.
Dec 9 05:07:00	5m 00s	Avoid Rage	Great game - very playable. Good polish as well. I loved the changing colors. <br/> <br/>One critique - the horizontal / vertical lines light up pretty slowly, so you can't really use them as a tool to avoid the blocks. It might be cool if they lit up immediately so you could watch them instead of the blocks? <br/> <br/>In any case, great game. Really enjoyed it!
Dec 9 05:10:00	3m 00s	Slime Ball	Great idea. It's a bit difficult at the moment (my high score was 13). Would definitely like a way to influence the direction of travel. But I really like the concept. Pretty cool!
Dec 9 05:12:00	2m 00s	brawling game	Off to a good start! I really liked the cartoony big splashes for projectile hits. Obviously a work in progress, but I think you should keep going!
Dec 9 05:17:00	5m 00s	BIRDS!	It's like a psychology experiment - how long will we stay chill until we flip the switch and roast all the birds!! At least, that's what I expected when I hit the switch. I was looking for electricity to surge thru all the wires . . . but maybe that just says something about me. In any case, beautiful art and a wonderfully creative idea. All my birds flew away at once after two of them go roasted - oops!
Dec 9 05:22:00	5m 00s	Graffiti Escape	It might be helpful to add some instructions in your description. I really like the art, but I too cannot figure out what I'm doing / where to go. What do the random crashes indicate? Is that little green hand indicating something? I have many questions.
Dec 9 05:27:00	5m 00s	Dog Pile	Nice work! A well polished game. I liked how sometimes I could solve puzzles by placing the overlays in a different order. I felt the color scheme could use some spicing up, but otherwise I found it to be very well done!
Dec 9 05:37:00	10m 00s	Pipe Quest	Very strong! I loved almost everything about this game. It's well polished wit very fun game play. <br/> <br/>To be straightforward, I absolutely hated the momentum easing for starting and stopping. It ultimately caused me to stop playing because the controls felt so sluggish. I never wanted to stop because it felt so gross to start moving again. <br/> <br/>That sounds negative, but overall I thought it was one of the best games I've seen so far. I loved the story, art, sound, and level design. Good work!
Dec 9 05:42:00	5m 00s	Squishi	Haha, that was absolutely awesome! I'm dying for some sound (it would really take it to the top!) but I still loved it. <br/> <br/>Super Meat Boy style blood and gore would fit right in with the spikes and blades. <br/> <br/>Absolutely loved the transitions, and the floating mechanism is great as well (reminds me of Peach from Super Mario 2). Overall a great game! My favorite so far that I've played. <br/> <br/>P.S. The level with the wind blowing quickly to the right is nasty.
Dec 9 19:21:00	13h 39m	H.T.P	Great game! I have 127 deaths, 203 coins, and 101 kills. Nothing else seems to be happening at this point, so I think I'm calling it a day. <br/> <br/>Really nice balance between 'what am I supposed to do next' and 'oooh there it is' moments. <br/> <br/>One critique - it's probably too difficult to use the sword without dying yourself. I almost gave up without any kills because it didn't seem to do anything. <br/> <br/>Overall I really enjoyed it, and played for quite a while!
Dec 9 23:01:00	3h 40m	Shiftavoid	I don't have a mouse handy, and my laptop trackpad is definitely not the right input device for this game! That said, I still enjoyed the few levels I managed to get through. Transitions between levels were cool, although they felt a bit slow at times. A nice entry! I enjoyed it!
