| Dec 15 00:35:00 | Volve | Music was very relaxing, liked the idea that eating different creatures improved different abilities. Performance wise, the game was a little jittery running on Firefox. Other than that, very nice game! :) | |
| Dec 15 01:01:00 | 26m 00s | Super Spider World | This was really fun, definitely has a great art style that would have made it perfect for GBJam, but really goes with the "Growing" theme here. Controls were a bit confusing at first (I assumed you had to click where you wanted the web to go, not click to start, then move, then click to finish a web). <br/> <br/>Really kicking soundtrack as well! :) |
| Dec 15 13:23:00 | 12h 22m | Hanami - Push-Up Farming | The concept is hilarious, and the difficulty is frustrating yet simple. Wish it wasn't so fast near the start. Some nice music as well. |
| Dec 15 13:27:00 | 4m 00s | Lands of TSR Lore | Very intuitive dungeon crawler, reminds me a lot of the Ultima Underworld games. Graphics look superb, great job! |
| Dec 15 13:32:00 | 5m 00s | Great Nation | Simple and straightforward game, liked the choices and effects, as well as the final results. Audio felt a bit basic. Had fun playing this multiple times though, so you got me there! |
| Dec 15 13:36:00 | 4m 00s | The Crystal Thief | Short but sweet game, definitely like how the game tricks you out with the names on the gemstones being different from the colour. |
| Dec 15 13:41:00 | 5m 00s | Need For Seed: Undergrowth | Love the use of tank/vehicle controls to set where the plant grows. Game flows really well, very simple but very challenging! |
| Dec 15 13:46:00 | 5m 00s | Longbeard | Glad to see you managed to submit the game on time! The beard mechanics work really well and looks really funny seeing it in action. Using the beard to solve door puzzles is really clever indeed! Great job! |
| Dec 15 13:49:00 | 3m 00s | Growtye | Pretty cool, the minimalist look definitely suits the game well. Audio is a bit too simple, would've been nice if it was something with more ambiance. |
| Dec 15 13:56:00 | 7m 00s | ORB LORDS | Very well built pinball game, and I like to polarizing colour mechanic. Camera is built very well. Sometimes the ball gets stuck into the wall but it only appears temporary. Also probably not a good idea to use Shift Keys for controls unless you want unsuspecting players to get Sticky Key alerts. <br/> <br/>However those two results are very minor considering how well built this game is, and the graphics look great as well! |
| Dec 15 13:59:00 | 3m 00s | SHOOT'N GROW | Felt a bit slow, but I got hang of the game pretty quickly. Shame there is no audio. |
| Dec 15 20:10:00 | 6h 11m | Sector 9 | Very good endless runner! The second level can be really unforgiving but this was quite fun to play. |
| Dec 15 21:06:00 | 56m 00s | Puff Enuff? | The animation is so smooth it's incredible, and while the lighting and shadows are a bit jittery it works well here. Gameplay is really good, love the challenging platforming although the shooting doesn't work all the time. Brilliant game nonetheless! |
| Dec 15 21:23:00 | 17m 00s | Rolla Grolla Arena | The game was alright, had some issues with gameplay controllers (I'm using an Xbox 360 controller), such as no analogue stick input and left and right d-pad controls are cleary inverted. <br/> <br/>The idea was fun, I can imagine two or three people playing this for a few minutes. |
| Dec 15 22:35:00 | 1h 12m | Concrete Jungle | That was a really good experience, I'm not sure what was more impressive, the vines with very robust and real looking physics or the background that had a timelapse to imply that much more time had passed than you realise. This was brilliant to play through! |
| Dec 15 22:45:00 | 10m 00s | FLOW | I'm not sure what I played, but it was very relaxing and I stayed on long enough to get the first puzzle piece, that's definitely something. |
| Dec 15 22:51:00 | 6m 00s | Agent Hooker | Really like this double hookshot puzzle solving, there are a lot of opportunities for this kind of challenge! Great stuff! |
| Dec 15 22:55:00 | 4m 00s | Grow Over | Love the bloom. Hitboxes are awkward, as well as the jumping, but not bad. |
| Dec 15 23:02:00 | 7m 00s | Drez-eX | That is an amazing looking dragon serpent, great job! |
| Dec 15 23:04:00 | 2m 00s | Balanced Diet | Good job on the physics, but you need to add a small random force so the player can start moving and balance right away. Also didn't like how hitting the wall immediately reset your score. |
| Dec 15 23:14:00 | 10m 00s | Snowman's Land | This would make a really good mobile game, it's short simple and it only needs basic touch controls. Music isn't bad either. Great job on finishing! |
| Dec 15 23:22:00 | 8m 00s | Growth | Great entry Cherno! Loved the music and the vine effects, was a bit sceptical of it being a Java game but I already know you work incredibly well in the language. Great stuff! |
| Dec 16 13:15:00 | 13h 53m | Black White War | Gameplay was good, I feel this could be expanded with multiplayer and more advanced AI. Nice music as well! |
| Dec 16 13:21:00 | 6m 00s | Double Kick Heroes | That was really hardcore! Levels got harder but still managed to beat all three levels! Really fun and good looking game, even on web! |
| Dec 16 13:24:00 | 3m 00s | Binary | The aim was a bit confusing, but the idea has potential. |
| Dec 16 13:28:00 | 4m 00s | Sentient Sewage | The water effects and the physics looked cool, plus I liked how it got challenging nearer the end. Quite enjoyed it. :) |
| Dec 16 13:32:00 | 4m 00s | Below the belt | Like the idea of multi-tasking between two ships, although it would've been nice if you had a bit more control. |
| Dec 16 13:37:00 | 5m 00s | Ourobos | Very impressive Metroidvania game, loved the art style and the different options. Only real issue was it felt a bit slow, particularly walking. Other than that, great job! |
| Dec 16 13:40:00 | 3m 00s | Mystic Temple | Great endless runner, I like how you are able to move between floors with the possibility of going through different paths. Animations were really good too! |
| Dec 16 13:58:00 | 18m 00s | GURU | This is a really well-made card game, it's surprisingly well balanced. <br/>Not to mention I love the gurus and their references, the dialogue can be really funny sometimes. I cannot put this game down...uh stop playing I mean. |
| Dec 16 19:26:00 | 5h 28m | Feed The Hole | Pretty straightforward game, liked how objects swirled around you before you ate them. Shame there's no music to go along with this. |
| Dec 16 19:41:00 | 15m 00s | The Pits of Mazow | Pretty good platformer, a bit slow for me but the goal was clear and the levels were pretty challenging. |
| Dec 16 19:54:00 | 13m 00s | Parse The Sky | This is a really beautiful looking and sounding game, if it wasn't for the music and graphics, I would've given up early due to frustration from the controls. Moving the plan up and down is simple enough, but steering is really difficult. <br/> <br/>Great job on the art stuff! |
| Dec 16 20:25:00 | 31m 00s | Battle For Bedroom | Really fun! Shame I don't have another person with me to try out for multiplayer, but gameplay is pretty solid. |
| Dec 16 20:29:00 | 4m 00s | Snowball University | Loved the dialogue between the snowmen and the students, gameplay was pretty challenging, although I think there is an input delay on the keyboard. |
| Dec 16 20:35:00 | 6m 00s | Griffin Card | Really good amount of strategy in here, I like how you can use cards on your enemies to aide you somehow. Really good sprite animations as well! Great job! |
| Dec 16 20:46:00 | 11m 00s | RhythmRider | That was really fun, hard mode was challenging but I really enjoyed the game. Nice rocket and smoke effects too! |
| Dec 16 21:01:00 | 15m 00s | Roll-Ball | Really good idea, and I like how each piece of the path interpolates into place, however it needs something in the background since it's hard to tell how long you've fallen. Also I didn't realise the ball was 3D at first because the texture wasn't very clear. |
| Dec 17 19:24:00 | 22h 23m | Don't Mess With Totems | That was pretty fun, liked the effects and it was hilarious seeing the totem poles just shoot up just as you were about to reach the top. Avoiding the thorns is surprisingly tricky but solid gameplay! |
| Dec 17 19:30:00 | 6m 00s | Belly Smash | Brilliant Sumo Simulator! Hilarious seeing them fall out the ring and even colliding with the referee! Nice seeing some strategy with side-stepping and collecting food as well. |
| Dec 17 19:45:00 | 15m 00s | Solstand | Really like the cutout design of this one, some great animations! |
| Dec 17 19:54:00 | 9m 00s | become a game developer in 60 seconds | This is insanely clever! There is a surprising amount of creativity from just two buttons and the mechanics of this is really well made. The audio is a bit annoying but that could be from how simple the generation of it is. <br/> <br/>Definitely a superb job nonetheless! |
| Dec 17 20:13:00 | 19m 00s | Cave Swing | That was pretty fun! Very hard to avoid the rocks while you're swinging, but I liked the challenge and the use of physics. It's a bit too simple to be a Windows only game, would definitely like to see this as a web game. |
| Dec 18 13:35:00 | 17h 22m | Light Drifter 34 | Great lighting and shadow effects, nice music and great variety of powerups! |
| Dec 18 13:41:00 | 6m 00s | Another Dragon | Brilliant tribute to Another World, great artstyle and clever strategy to beat the final boss! Great job! |
| Dec 18 13:59:00 | 18m 00s | Full Metal Democracy | Great game! The mechs look incredible, especially with how they move like a modular war machine! The effects look great as well! |
| Dec 19 21:40:00 | 31h 41m | The Days of Christmas | Interesting, and very Christmassy! |
| Dec 19 21:43:00 | 3m 00s | Plant Designer | I like the concept, especially since you have to wait for the right parts to appear and choose wisely. Couldn't hear any audio so not sure if to really vote in that category. |
| Dec 19 21:53:00 | 10m 00s | Octopodes | Something about the anti-aliasing effect works in this, also when you die in Level 3 you get sent back to Level 2 for some reason. |
| Dec 19 22:10:00 | 17m 00s | Streamline | Managed to beat every level and man that was a good puzzle game, solid controls and animations. Not sure how you puzzled it off on the Android version but that was a really good game to beat. |
| Dec 19 22:59:00 | 49m 00s | Barber Chop | A very interesting concept for a music rhythm game. Honestly I missed the instructions and thought you were supposed to click on the symbols, so that could be some possible touch screen controls. |
| Dec 21 13:27:00 | 38h 28m | Deck the Halls with Nightmares | That was pretty good, considering the limits you had with being purely text based. Liked some of the humour as well! |
| Dec 21 13:32:00 | 5m 00s | JUMPR | Those deaths were brutal, I think the level starts way too hard with those spikes on the first platform, but the music was nice, graphics were good and the gameplay was solid nonetheless. |
| Dec 21 13:40:00 | 8m 00s | From the Deep | Could your sprites be any smaller?! :P <br/> <br/>Like the concept, and while I find the platforming controls to be a bit unusual, they work really well here! Great job! |
| Dec 21 13:48:00 | 8m 00s | Tha Mage | Neat idea, definitely makes the game more challenging by restricting your moves to spells. Loved the dialogue as well, funny stuff! |
| Dec 21 13:54:00 | 6m 00s | Let It Grow! | It's quite slow pace, which feels nice. I mostly just planted stuff and wondered for a bit, and harvested what I grew. |
| Dec 21 13:59:00 | 5m 00s | Hungry Spider | Simple but a fun auto runner, I like the idea that eating too much can kill you as well as running into spikes, means you have to be careful of how much you collect. Good game! :) |
| Dec 21 19:24:00 | 5h 25m | Pixies Flowers | That was quite nice, fairly simple and colourful. There is quite a delay on stopping the rain, which makes timing very irritating, but great job on the particle effects and the artwork. |
| Dec 21 19:28:00 | 4m 00s | Up And Down | Plays pretty well, the collision is precise. Gameplay reminds me of the basis of Bit.Trip Void. Will say that the random placement can make getting some pixels impossible without getting damaged, especially when they overlap (try checking if the random position you place stuff overlaps, and if they do set it to another random position). |
| Dec 23 13:43:00 | 42h 15m | BallBall Babbaballoo! | Not bad for an endless runner, the music gave it a relaxing tone, and I liked the design of the obstacles as ones you couldn't avoid so easily. |
| Dec 23 13:45:00 | 2m 00s | Vectrex 2: Neon Boogaloo | Definitely a good looking spinning vector ship, gives me the thought of a HD remake of the original Elite, using vector graphics to keep the wireframe look. |
| Dec 23 13:59:00 | 14m 00s | Two button controls | ha |
| Jan 4 22:21:00 | 296h 22m | Demon Truck | Michael Bay would be proud. :') <br/> <br/>Really fun idea, with an overload of firepower. Really fun to play, so great job! |
| Jan 4 22:26:00 | 5m 00s | BOOST | Really clever space game! Great idea controlling two rockets for direction and ammunition! <br/> <br/>Great job on the music and graphics as well, very crisp and colourful! |
