Dec 16 20:24:00		Forest Wars	Loved the concept and art. :-) Also the music is very satisfying! <br/> <br/>Some tips to make it better: <br/>The tutorial is really boring, I just wanna play! It would be much better to show the controls in the small tutorial, when you actually play the game, but I understand it's really hard to do in 48 hours. Also it would be good to write the controls on this page (yeah, I forgot even the "show me again the tutorial" key :D ) <br/> <br/>Those tall buildings kinda overlaps the smaller ones, so it's quite hard to see, what's happening underneath them. <br/> <br/>Also the controls are quite uncommon for strategy games - I would like to have LMB as select and then RMB as move. <br/> <br/>The screen moving is also quite unusual, it would be better to move the screen by moving the mouse to the edges or by holding the middle button. It's not so hard to implement and it would lead to a much smoother gameplay. <br/> <br/>Also - I cannot download the source codes, please fix the link - thanks! :-) <br/> <br/>Overall - great game, thanks!
Dec 17 13:50:00	17h 26m	Apple Juice Tycoon	I really loved the concept. I can see it as quite good strategy game. <br/> <br/>It would be nice to have a better controls (using mouse) and the opportunity to play the game directly in browser with one click (nowadays it's not really hard to host it somewhere)
Dec 17 14:02:00	12m 00s	Flip Flop Adventures	Really nice graphics and music, I like that. I think the game's a little bit bugged. After some time playing it, it generates more and more tunnels and sometimes unbeatable obstacles (one I got an obstacle even in the tunnel). Also I think it needs more gameplay balance - I would like to see more obstacles, but a little bit slower - now you are just waiting for a really fast obstacle to just smash you.
Dec 17 14:13:00	11m 00s	Growing Spaceships	I like the concept, it reminds me TerraTech, but it's much more simpler. It runs ok, so yeah, it's fine game, which I can imagine to grow into really great game. <br/> <br/>If I were you, I would focus on balancing gameplay. I would love to make a huge ship (Death Star :D ) and destroy everything, but those small ships are still harassing me and destroying my ship, so I can't really grow. And it would be wonderful, if the game generated the enemies the same size as I have - then I would really like to enjoy a big-ass combat between huge ships. Also I think the missiles need cooldown. <br/> <br/>So to sum it up - I really like the gameplay, but it needs a little bit of polish. <br/> <br/>I played patch 2.
Dec 17 14:18:00	5m 00s	Hero of the nest	Nice graphics and music. The game is pretty hard - I've really sucked at this. Overall great work!
Dec 17 14:24:00	6m 00s	Generic Tycoon Game	Without game engine - great work! :-) A like the idea of generic tycoon. :D Overall I think it needs polishing, because the game is quite pointless. I like you made music and sounds, it really adds a lot to a game like this.
Dec 17 14:36:00	12m 00s	Quality Control	I like the concept, but this game needs a little bit of polish. <br/> <br/>The tutorial is needed, I thought the objects need to satisfy all requirements. Also the size is pretty unclear. <br/> <br/>Also the screens with score and instructions are pretty annoying, I just wanna play again. (And they are slow). <br/> <br/>And there should be bigger time window, when you can click on the object. Sometimes I know what I should do with it, but I am just a little bit late. <br/> <br/>Overall - great concept, thanks for the game! :-)
Dec 17 14:43:00	7m 00s	Growing experiment	Interesting concept, I would like it, when there some changes. <br/> <br/>You should be able to eat the food from a bigger distance - now it's quite hard to aim for it. The mouse bug is pretty bad (playing in reverse is hardcore). Also after each restart there shouldn't be the tutorial again.
Dec 17 15:11:00	28m 00s	Get Grown Or Die Trying	Surely one of the better games - I have really fun playing it. I like the idea of tree against lumberjacks, drug addicts are kinda weird to this game. Also I miss the point, why the tree has thug life necklace, but it's funny. :D <br/> <br/>There are some points to how it make better: The upgrade system is unclear, once I have a powerful kill-all-enemies acorn and then I got it swapped with not so good red balls. But the last spiky ball gun is great. Also it would be nice to have a music in-game. In the menu it's great, but I do not spend much time in menus, I rather play a game. :-)
Dec 17 15:24:00	13m 00s	Asteroid Madness	I really liked how the music was sped up by your progress, great idea! <br/> <br/>In the beggining it's really entertaining game, but then it gets the same, there are no funny texts and music gets really annoying. <br/> <br/>Thanks!
Dec 19 19:45:00	52h 21m	Space Meteor Runner	I do not like that you disabled all categories except overall - there are always better sides and worse sides about every game. <br/> <br/>I like the graphics and music. The controls are little bit harder - I miss the repair bonus a lot. Also I think it needs a little bit more balancing. In the beginning it's really simple and after some time it suddenly becomes unplayable. I think it would be better to start at faster speed, but accelerate slower. <br/> <br/>But it's amazing you were group of people who met for the first time in their lives and made this game, thumbs up! :)
Dec 19 20:05:00	20m 00s	Complete Control	Interesting concept, I really like there are many strategy games this Ludum Dare. <br/> <br/>Unfortunately, for really great strategy it needs better graphics (actually it needs some graphics...), better controls (for sure! these controls are so unpractical), balanced gameplay (now the gameplay is: spam mines, spam barracks, win everything) and better UI. <br/> <br/>But there is one aspect, which I liked a lot - the music! I really liked that dystopic mood of the music - I really felt like great emperor ruining the whole world in the huge war. But sometimes it's maybe too much dystopic and scary. :-D
Dec 19 20:20:00	15m 00s	War...	Well, I don't know what to say. I really like the thought of this game - war is bad even if you on the winners' side. <br/> <br/>Is this entry even game? Again I don't know. <br/> <br/>I really want to thank you for this entry, it's really different and really deep. The scoring wasn't easy for me, I really like its music, mood and theme, but in overall it's just not a game. <br/> <br/>Just... well done!
Dec 20 18:50:00	22h 30m	And the world kept on turning	Great game - nice audio, good concept - really liked that. :-) The difficulty is kinda high, but it's surely doable. <br/> <br/>FIY I've encountered a possible bug - I've finished the level 4 and it didn't do anything. In the second run it was ok. (Sorry, I don't have more information :/ )
Dec 20 19:01:00	11m 00s	Elevation	This game is pretty awesome - I really like the level design and level progression! Really great concept. :-)
Dec 22 12:25:00	41h 24m	EXTERMINOIDS!	Great concept - it feels like start of really good game, it just needs more levels. :-) <br/> <br/>Characters are getting stucked some times, which is quite annoying and I don't like the camera effect, when your character is shooting.
Dec 22 12:35:00	10m 00s	2 Button Garden	Nice concept, it would be nice, if this game was more deep - some random elements, which can break the stereotype. Overall I liked that, it's simple with cool music. :-) <br/> <br/>And I love the flower on the fire - it's just so cool. :D
Dec 22 12:55:00	20m 00s	Petal Hill	Sounds are really weird, scary, but actually I really like them. Original concept, well done :-)
Dec 22 13:14:00	19m 00s	Skyway	I like the voice! Well done, man. :-D <br/> <br/>I like the concept, it needs just a little bit of balance, slow speed is a little bit boring, but after one speed up and bad luck with obstacles, it immediately gets really hard.
Dec 22 13:21:00	7m 00s	Dog Eat Dog	Nobody likes installers for simple game. It would be great, if I can just run the game without installing it. <br/> <br/>But for your first entry to game jams - it feels good, keep on doing it! :-) <br/> <br/>And I like the handdrawn menu - it's funny looking. :D
Dec 22 13:28:00	7m 00s	Colony 3028	Yeah, everything is quite small and hard to control. I like the concept, but I was kinda frustrated by the speed and controls. <br/> <br/>Thumbs up for RTS in 72 hours! :-)
Dec 22 13:37:00	9m 00s	Sprout	I like the art, which is created by the game. Needs a little bit of polish (sometime your sprout is generated so badly you are immediately doomed). <br/> <br/>Also the music is great, nice concept, this game is really good. :-)
Dec 22 13:50:00	13m 00s	Garbage Can you escape?	I like this game! It feels very Ludum Darish! :-) Humorous, retro graphics, 8bit music, simple gameplay. Actually this is one of the best game I've seen this jam, it feels really good. :-)
Dec 22 14:01:00	11m 00s	Formula Wroom	I like the name! :-) The concept is great and I like the animation of car switching the lane. It's really hard to beat the yellow card. Also I think it should be 5 lap race, 3 is quite short for me.
Dec 22 14:13:00	12m 00s	Singapore Christmas	Nice idea. :-) I like that this game is only one button control. :-) I have like 10 layers and it's quite simple even on this height, but the tree growth gets really long and the game is more about waiting. :-/ <br/> <br/>Overall I like concept of this game, well done! :-)
Dec 22 14:24:00	11m 00s	Shaman Flower	Awesome, like it!
Dec 22 14:30:00	6m 00s	Damacreat	The controls are interesting but really HARD.
Dec 22 14:37:00	7m 00s	TrainWrecker	I really like this game. :-) Simple graphics, great concept with shooting chariots. I like that you grow, but you become easier target for enemies, so they destroy some of your chariots and then again. Nice loop. :-)
Dec 22 14:43:00	6m 00s	Eatvolution	Nice game, classic concept made clean, smooth. I like it.
Dec 22 14:51:00	8m 00s	BREAKING MOUSE :)	Nice game, I like the art. :-) The collisions should be more clear - I think if the bullet collides with UFO, it should kill it. <br/> <br/>I also like the speed of this game, it's really funny and challenging. :-)
Dec 22 15:01:00	10m 00s	CandyShopping	Nice game. :-) The graphics is unfortunately quite bad, cars should have smaller hitbox and it's maybe too much random. Gameplay is good, I spent like 10 minutes trying to win. :-) I also like the audio - especially in the menu.
