| Dec 14 05:55:00 | Wargrow | Neat little game. Just standing there and spamming shift while occasionally dodging arrows seems to be a bit OP though :X | |
| Dec 14 06:03:00 | 8m 00s | A Bullet Hell Style Shooter Where One Button Controls Both Shooting and Moving, While Another Button Gives You Slightly Sarcastic Motivation. | Pretty funny voice acting you got there :P too bad you didn't have a lot of time to work on this... I could see it going places. <br/>Even so, I think you could have written a small "endless" enemy generator after the boss that gets gradually harder. <br/>Nice entry! |
| Dec 14 06:12:00 | 9m 00s | The Flower | Hi! The game was strangely atmospheric, which I really liked. Graphics and sound suit it well. <br/> <br/>Controls were a bit fussy, and I would add a restart button. Finally a game that doesn't use 6 buttons and calls it "2" buttons :P |
| Dec 14 06:21:00 | 9m 00s | Ludum Party! | That computer is way way waaaaaaaay too good :P I really liked how much content was crammed into this, graphics were simple and effective, and sounds were spot on for the game. <br/> <br/>Something weird I noticed is that when I clicked Q+E it didn't start, but when I clicked E+Q it finally did. No clue why. Maybe mouse was out of context or something and I'm just hallucinating. <br/> <br/>Solid entry, good luck! |
| Dec 14 06:26:00 | 5m 00s | Catch the White Rabbit! | Great use of themes! <br/> <br/>I would have made it so that when you grow in size, you don't jump like you do now, instead only when you shrink, due to the shrinkage, you become "higher" than you are and then fall. That way to jump over lava the player has to first grow big and then grow small. <br/> <br/>Graphics could use some touching up, and a funky soundtrack would do this very well as well. <br/> <br/>Neat entry, good luck! |
| Dec 14 06:41:00 | 15m 00s | Panda and Squirrel | Problem is vision. I think the game could benefit from a higher size? So you can see what is above you. <br/> <br/>Some sound effects and bounce/screenshake would go a long way to immerse the player as well. <br/> <br/>Excellent implementation of the themes, really liked this overall, graphics are fantastic. Very solid entry, good luck! |
| Dec 14 06:59:00 | 18m 00s | Yggshroom | Cool game. I'd make it so that the walking sound is way less frequent, as the walk animation is very slow and the sound is not in sync with it. <br/> <br/>I like the fact that you used both themes. Game was a bit of fast fun. I finished it in slightly more than two minutes, is that good ;)? <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 14 07:08:00 | 9m 00s | Trick Shot | Neat game! Graphics need a bit of improvement and the game could do with some music as well. <br/> <br/>Also, it "feels" like the canon doesn't charge fast enough, meaning, if the charge bar fills halfway, I didn't feel like it shot far enough. <br/> <br/>Nice concept and mechanics though :) <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 14 07:17:00 | 9m 00s | This Little Piggy | 1246 pounds! <br/> <br/>This is a really nice little package. Graphics are great, sound is very cool, and the gameplay itself is simple but gets challenging. I like how the theme fit into the gameplay: growing = become bigger. Become bigger = harder to move and dodge chefs. <br/> <br/>The only thing I could think of improving is putting some decay timer on the food; if after 5 or so seconds, a food item is not picked up, it disappears. Why? Because the chefs gathered in one half of the kitchen, and I kept picking up the food in the other half. When 2 moved to the half I was in, I went into the half they were camping and picked up the massive amount of food that had gathered there. <br/> <br/>Really nice, good luck! |
| Dec 14 08:17:00 | 1h 00m | DESEEDER | Very slick and stylish. The 3 "big" seeds in the tutorial are a hell to get through xD <br/> <br/>Amazing graphics, sound is fantastic, gameplay is straigh forward and very effective. Great work and good luck ^_^ |
| Dec 14 08:47:00 | 30m 00s | Swarmonian Explorer | Wow, you nailed the Growing theme with this, really slick and fun. <br/> <br/>Music can be improved, and graphics as well, but the mechanics are insanely solid. <br/> <br/>With some work this could be a full game that you can sell! <br/> <br/>Good luck, awesome entry ^^ |
| Dec 14 08:55:00 | 8m 00s | ＵＰＳＱＵＩＤ | I liked your usual play on popular games/titles (bedhogg and now this). <br/> <br/>Very solid entry, sounds are top notch, visuals are highly polished, and mechanics are well-tuned. Only suggestion would be to make it get harder faster, and to make the chain-combo timer run out faster the higher the combo counter is. <br/> <br/>Excellent all around! |
| Dec 14 09:25:00 | 30m 00s | 2Fight | Don't know why this was so fun but it was. <br/> <br/>I really liked this, even though for me gameplay boiled down to randomly and haphazardly clicking both buttons, executing combos randomly. Seemed pretty effective ;) Maybe you need a cooldown on the bigger moves, like the explosion and the jump jump a (forgot its name). <br/> <br/>Graphics are good, music is pretty cool, and win animation and enemy death animations are hilarious :D <br/> <br/>Great entry, good luck! |
| Dec 14 09:31:00 | 6m 00s | Droplet | Really solid fluid (lel) mechanics :P.Would have liked to see farther below (ahead). Graphics are ok, sounds are calm and very nice, even though the game can get hectic. <br/> <br/>+ for using both themes, and the usage of the growing theme being very well-implemented. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 14 09:38:00 | 7m 00s | HUNGRY BEAST | This great for a first entry :D <br/> <br/>Lacks a great deal of polish, especially in terms of graphics and sound... but also in gameplay, as it is fairly difficult to grow. I kept eating people to replenish my hp a little bit every time, but it was draining fast and when I got hit by bullets it was very hard to recover. <br/> <br/>It is a very promising idea and aligns well with both themes, but like I said, needs polish, which I'm sure you don't need me to tell you ;) <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo and congratulations on your first jam :D |
| Dec 14 09:50:00 | 12m 00s | Balloon Bullies | Cool game! Great use of the theme! Would have liked to control it with the keyboard as opposed to clicking a button on the screen. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 14 10:16:00 | 26m 00s | Back on Earth | Game text can use some proof-reading, and some ambient sounds would a long way in making this more atmospheric. <br/> <br/>That said, graphics are absolutely gorgeous, and the story was all right. I'm not sure if go to the end or not, but pressing r and e does nothing so I'm assuming I did? <br/> <br/>"the future is in your hands" - is that the last sentence? <br/> <br/>Really good entry :) Good luck! |
| Dec 14 10:21:00 | 5m 00s | Surf a Turf | Great little game with lots of polish :) <br/> <br/>Background tick gets annoying fast, otherwise it's a complete product :D <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 14 10:25:00 | 4m 00s | JetTeam | Pretty decent game, graphics could use some polish. I would also increase the size of enemy ships, or decrease the size of the arena. Themes are not really expressed as much as they could have been. <br/> <br/>Good concept though, and the sounds are pretty cool :D |
| Dec 14 10:40:00 | 15m 00s | I've Bean Stalking You | I really dig the aesthetic here. The sounds are really ambient and haunting, very good work on that as well. Gameplay itself is a bit simple, the jumping seems a bit floaty and fussy. Other than that, pretty solid! Good luck! |
| Dec 14 10:58:00 | 18m 00s | From the Deep | Very cool! Obviously when you have the entirety of a platformer functionality in onl two buttons it's not gonna be as smooth as a D-Pad but it's really well done here. The level design was also pretty cool and challenging. <br/> <br/>Graphics and sound can be improved though IMO. <br/> <br/>Good entry, good luck! |
| Dec 14 11:04:00 | 6m 00s | U.G.O | Very good, polished, and complete game. Even with only one level this would have been a good game, but then I grew into the second level and saw new enemy types and more difficult gameplay. Very well-implemented! <br/> <br/>The only - I can think of is that it is a bit difficult, but graphics are beautiful, sounds fit in, awesome usage of the themes, and a lot of content. <br/> <br/>Great entry! Good luck :) |
| Dec 14 11:08:00 | 4m 00s | Concrete Jungle | Brilliant use of the theme. Awesome art, great music! The only "complaint" I have is that it ends too soon and is a bit easy. Other than that, wonderful entry! Good luck :) |
| Dec 14 12:35:00 | 1h 27m | Another Dragon | Falling boulders are a massive spike in difficulty, but the game is gorgeous and an amazing throwback to a bygone era. Really excellent entry, could have maybe used a sombre background tune. <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo! |
| Dec 14 12:42:00 | 7m 00s | Captain Ninjabeard | You could probably sell this on steam right now. It's that good! Reminded me of Luftrausers in terms of game arrangement. <br/> <br/>Great usage of the 2-button theme, as you both control movement and weapons with only 2 buttons. <br/> <br/>Game was full of content as well, really brilliant stuff. Visually pleasing and audio was awesome too. <br/> <br/>The only thing that I would improve is maybe putting a cap on the captain's maximum movespeed, as right now it felt really fussy controlling him with the shoot button held down. Instead I opted to fire in short bursts, only to better control the movement. <br/> <br/>Wonderful! Good luck! |
| Dec 14 13:23:00 | 41m 00s | NO HOBO | I saved a dude's beard! FeelsGood <br/> <br/>Cool little game, really liked the music. Good luck! |
| Dec 14 13:27:00 | 4m 00s | Cyber Rider 2023 | Well-made snakelike game. I liked the sound effects. Could have used some background music and touched up graphics. <br/> <br/>Nice entry! Good luck :) |
| Dec 14 13:32:00 | 5m 00s | THOSE GOD DAMN SHEEP!!! | Neat concept, but waaaaay too hard. Could have used some background music as well, some country music tune or something :P <br/> <br/>Cute artstyle! <br/> <br/>GOod luck! |
| Dec 14 13:37:00 | 5m 00s | Man Simulator | Very quirky, in a good way. Art is really well-made, but the controls are rather fidgety. <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo! |
| Dec 14 13:46:00 | 9m 00s | Knight vs. Mage | Pretty cool entry. Graphics are nice and the music is really cool as well. Well-paced and challenging. Good luck! |
| Dec 14 20:44:00 | 6h 58m | Ad Block | Very cool and effective. I liked the suitable artstyle. Music was cool as well. <br/> <br/>Only suggestion I have is to add a sound effect for when there is a breach, and for when you click and there is no AD (and you lose score). In addition, I would make it so that that sound effect for a correct click refreshes; it happened several times that ads were close and the sound only played for when I blocked the first one. <br/> <br/>Good job, good luck! |
| Dec 14 20:51:00 | 7m 00s | Frogtale | Cool entry! Story was pretty cute, art is very coherent throughout, and music was calming and nice, and fit well with the sound effects. Controls were pretty comfortable and easy to get used to as well. <br/> <br/>I would have liked to see the theme expressed more strongly, but it's a very cool entry! Good luck :D |
| Dec 15 03:41:00 | 6h 50m | Combat Hell | Excellent entry, I mean the only thing that can be asked more of this is to have more enemy types + some actual upgrades at the shop :X Everything else is very top notch. <br/> <br/>Good job, good luck! |
| Dec 15 03:46:00 | 5m 00s | Deceit | Could have done with another keyboard button instead of the mouse button... other than that, for someone who doesn't do graphics at all, the game looked good :) Music and sound direction are top notch, but I felt the game just lacked a bit of meat in terms of gameplay. <br/> <br/>Cool entry, good luck! |
| Dec 15 03:53:00 | 7m 00s | Space Elf | Stylish game and good idea. Graphics and sfx are spot on, but maybe add some background music? <br/> <br/>Also, some ingame instructions would be useful, for instance I didn't know that you could knock turrets over until I stumbled upon one by accident and saw it fall over xD <br/> <br/>Great entry, good luck ^^ |
| Dec 15 03:59:00 | 6m 00s | Runaway Rob | Heya, pretty cool game! I really liked the radioactive explosion animation xD There was a good amount of content there for a 24 hour game, good job! Audio gets repetitive and a bit annoying relatively fast. <br/> <br/>Regarding gameplay, I felt the game was a bit too easy... whenever I had three "Actions" left, I'd just use them to get up fast, and then slowly regenerate them, so if I kept an eye on that I was basically unkillable :X <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 15 04:04:00 | 5m 00s | Go Fish | Graphics are really nice and the sounds are very calm. I personally found it very easy, I don't think I lost a single fish. I like how by design, growing makes it more difficult, because navigating the tunnels becomes harder. <br/> <br/>Cool entry, good luck :) |
| Dec 15 04:17:00 | 13m 00s | Interview at Incredible Inc | Eh that damn boss... I failed the third interview :( <br/> <br/>Cool concept and very well-executed. Good luck :) |
| Dec 15 04:21:00 | 4m 00s | Streamline | Very cool game, minimalist graphics and sound suit it very well. Just when it started getting repetitive a new mechanic is introduced which makes it fresh again. Very well-made and well-paced. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 15 04:27:00 | 6m 00s | Longbeard | Pretty fantastic as usual. Hope you expand on this, can be a full release with some more work on levels and additional beard usages :D |
| Dec 15 04:32:00 | 5m 00s | Button Betting | Pretty cool, that hand chop animation was very well drawn :D <br/> <br/>Minigames were well thought out and I liked that the player got all the feedback he/she needed to succeed in them. <br/> <br/>Good job, good luck:) |
| Dec 15 04:35:00 | 3m 00s | Flappy blue rabbit | I really dig the theme usage and the originality of the mechanics... makes me sad that the art is very simple and there are no sounds :( <br/> <br/>With some work this could be a very awesome arcade highscore game. Well done, good luck :) |
| Dec 15 04:46:00 | 11m 00s | Grow Your Hoard! | Pretty cool entry! Music got a repetitive fast though.Graphics were pretty :) <br/> <br/>I'd maybe make it a bit more slow-paced, and make the guy control a bit more tightly, but that's a matter of preference I guess :) <br/> <br/>Good entry, good luck. |
| Dec 15 05:00:00 | 14m 00s | Growing Ties | Very awesome concept and execution. Great usage of both themes. All in all a very, very solid entry :) Can't think of anyway to improve it honestly. Maybe add more patron-types? <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 15 05:09:00 | 9m 00s | 1minuteBaby | Unique idea, and very stylish minimalist art. Would have liked to see more gameplay elements. <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo! |
| Dec 15 07:15:00 | 2h 06m | One Man Spaceship | I tend to score highly in theme games that make 2 buttons do many, many things, and this one does that :) <br/> <br/>Funny audio, cool game, and nice difficulty curve. However, by the end I was just randomly activating everything and hoping for the best xD <br/> <br/>Good luck, great entry! |
| Dec 15 07:21:00 | 6m 00s | Super Lefty Garden Fighty | Great entry! Very polished and well-rounded in almost every way, graphics are great, sound is suitable, and gameplay feels smooth and well-tuned. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 15 07:26:00 | 5m 00s | Space Warrior | I really loved the usage of both themes in this, and the way that there is a risk reward thing with the growth. Normally you wanna kill all enemies, but here you can risk letting them live so you can absorb them. Pretty cool! <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 15 14:49:00 | 7h 23m | Lifenodes. | Amazing, it's clear that a lot emotion has been put into this. The music, choices and art are all amazing. Gameplay is obviously lacking but of course it's not the point of this game. <br/> <br/>Wonderful entry, thank you for sharing! |
| Dec 15 14:55:00 | 6m 00s | 2 button metroidvania | Wonderful execution of the 2 button theme: using two buttons to do a wide array of actions! Art was pretty cool, and sound was repetitive but not annoying, very suitable as well. <br/> <br/>Overall very solid, and the fact you made this in 8 hours is all the more amazing. Good luck, very well done! |
| Dec 15 15:01:00 | 6m 00s | GURU | Very stylish and original! Sounds got a bit repetitive but the game has a lot of soul (heh) and character. Great artwork, concept, and gameplay. Well-done! Good luck :) |
| Dec 15 15:08:00 | 7m 00s | Snow World | Pretty fantastic game with a really cool battle system. Everything from graphics, sound, and gameplay is very well-made. <br/> <br/>Awesome entry, good luck! |
| Dec 15 15:43:00 | 35m 00s | Agent Hooker | Very polished, feels very complete. I liked the art and the sound (that Oh Yeah) was very, very spot on. <br/> <br/>Needless to say, the usage of the theme is really well-done. <br/> <br/>Great entry, good luck! |
| Dec 15 15:47:00 | 4m 00s | Below the belt | This could really use some music and at least some sound effects. Also, the game felt a bit like a 1 button game for two players :P <br/> <br/>Aside from those two points, the entry is very solid, cool concept and well-executed. I liked the art and the game was pretty fun. <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo! |
| Dec 16 06:49:00 | 15h 02m | Bellows | Wonderful music, great visuals. Very cool idea and usage of the theme as well, but controlling the bellows is pretty tough xD Guess it needs some getting used to. Cool, stylish entry. Good luck! |
| Dec 16 06:58:00 | 9m 00s | Spectral Sprinter | Pretty difficult, but a really good concept. It's still very rough and unpolished but you should really flesh this out IMO, it can be a very good runner. I really liked how the two buttons allow you to do 4 actions, very smartly done. <br/> <br/>The character sprite was not clean (one of the animation frames has a thin line at the right side that should probably be cleaned xD) <br/> <br/>Good luck in the compo, I really liked the music as well :) |
| Dec 16 07:39:00 | 41m 00s | Garden Grow | Very cool game. I loved the music in particular, I think some pixelart would have gone very well with the chiptunes xD <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 16 07:46:00 | 7m 00s | Flutter | Death animation startled me every single time lol xD <br/> <br/>Very neat game :) Only suggestion would be to make the cat walk animation play faster, as it looks a bit choppy. <br/> <br/>Sounds were great, idea and theme usage were also great! <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 16 07:52:00 | 6m 00s | Orbital | Very cool and well-made. I think I found out all the ways that you can fail a level during the first level, except maybe the off the pad one xD <br/> <br/>Graphics were very suitable, and sound was very ambient and created a really nice atmosphere. <br/> <br/>Overall I really enjoyed it, very well-made. |
| Dec 16 08:03:00 | 11m 00s | Agglomatron | Pretty awesome use of the theme, reminded me a lot of Captain Forever :) <br/> <br/>SFX were really good, but the game could have used some background music as well IMO. All in all pretty fun and a cool entry, good luck! |
| Dec 16 08:14:00 | 11m 00s | Auto Racer | Nice game, could really use a soundtrack though :P <br/> <br/>Gameplay feels smooth and I liked the blocky graphics.Good luck! |
| Dec 16 08:18:00 | 4m 00s | Zen Roots | Very calm and soothing, a very relaxing experience. The background music is very serene :) <br/> <br/>Very good entry, good luck! |
| Dec 16 15:15:00 | 6h 57m | Clouk | Sucks that you didn't finish :( Could have been a really nice game, I really dig growing the cloak mechanic. <br/> <br/>The art was very nice though, and so were the sfx. |
| Dec 16 15:19:00 | 4m 00s | Super Square | I liked the overall style of this, but like others didn't really understand why I would wanna be anything but the smallest thing possible xD <br/> <br/>When I died it was because two obstacles were ramming into each other and there was no way to get through :( <br/> <br/>Game was pretty good, good luck! |
| Dec 18 01:35:00 | 34h 16m | Melissa - A Game of Choice | Really liked this. What I especially liked is that the choice is actually whether or not to turn off the game. While I was playing 2 things were going through my head: 1) How is the story gonna end? 2) I really don't wanna keep beating this person up. <br/>And the choice for me was between leaving the game and continuing. Once I realized that I just treated that as a game and myself as a not-sick person who enjoys seeing people get messed up, and I got to the ending. <br/> <br/>It's a really personal choice and a powerful experience... a wonderful achievement. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 18 07:55:00 | 6h 20m | Mt Etubo | Really stylish! The idea of jumping to fend people off of somewhere was also pretty new and neat. <br/> <br/>Good luck! |
| Dec 18 08:01:00 | 6m 00s | Run for shelter | I liked the horrible reality that I would have liked to be able to have something that allows me to push people out of the way... it's pretty striking that when you are in a life-threatening situation most people have utter disregard for others. <br/> <br/>Very powerful game. |
| Dec 20 16:03:00 | 56h 02m | Sickle & Sword | Very clever entry. It kept me hooked from the start :D Needless to say, some sound would have a gone a long way to making this more atmospheric :X |
| Dec 21 20:23:00 | 28h 20m | Fluffy Horde | Really liked this! Graphics were cool, and so was the story, very funny as well! Only thing I would add is maybe a sound effect for the bunnies. This reminded me a bit of Kingdom, so really good entry :) Good luck in the jam! |
| Dec 25 10:05:00 | 85h 42m | ORB LORDS | Very well-made. Art and graphics were top-notch, and the idea is very innovative as it transforms the usual, boring pinball game into so much more. I especially liked the fact that when you use one of the orb lords, all devices in the "map" that are his color get activated while the other lord's devices get deactivated, added a good puzzle/timing element to the game without which you couldn't pass some of the levels. <br/> <br/>Really well-done! <br/>Good luck :) |
| Jan 4 19:51:00 | 249h 46m | Udder Failure | Very cool physics puzzler. The first level with spikes seemed like a sudden spike of difficulty at first, since there were many spikes, but it proved to be relatively simple. Could use a nice soundtrack :) |
