|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 14 08:10:00 | Grow a Tree Roguelike | Was fun, but i felt too "random" - if you got a tree up in the first few turns, great, if not, start again. If you keep rolling fruit and leaves only you're in trouble :) Once you get a stable one going it seems interesting enough though. | |
| Dec 14 08:24:00 | 14m 00s | Harvest | Honestly my favourite game of the entire event so far. Great work! |
| Dec 15 00:21:00 | 15h 57m | Ministry of Growth and Information | Hilarious fun, very fresh. |
| Dec 15 01:32:00 | 1h 11m | Ultimate Panda | Fun, hard to remember/execute some of the combos which is good for raising the skill ceiling in button-constrained design ;) |
| Dec 15 01:38:00 | 6m 00s | Wasteful Revenge | That'll show em! Pretty fiddling growing controls, since you threw the 2 button thing out the window for the revenge section i'd say it'd be worth doing for the growing section too. |
| Dec 15 01:50:00 | 12m 00s | Bug Plus Plus | Fun enough (snake meets pacman), but the audio can be a bit obnoxious haha. |
| Dec 15 04:59:00 | 3h 09m | Reap | Again (like with rxi's game), the only thing that was annoying was inventory management. Survival+farming is a very enjoyable premise. The map mechanics were quite unique too, and i loved needing to actually read the map based on where i was rather than having a YOU ARE HERE stamped on it. |
| Dec 15 09:57:00 | 4h 58m | Lost Contact | Pretty good, saw the early work on twitter or something. Enjoyable enough but the whole "mines are very important" thing wasn't quite stressed enough early on imo :D first game lost to my own not reading the manual ;) once you've got that down, balance is a bit in favour of the player for quite a while. |
| Dec 16 23:11:00 | 37h 14m | Metamorphosis | It was very quirky. The jumping felt pretty bad. I won in the end as a little green person. Art was nice enough but i'd have liked a more zoomed-out view of the world. |
| Dec 16 23:12:00 | 1m 00s | Let's Poke | Cant run it, sorry. |
| Dec 16 23:13:00 | 1m 00s | Parcube | Dont have a linux install around to play it, sorry. |
| Dec 20 01:21:00 | 74h 08m | Viral Growth | A new level of cheesy on the graphics ;) but pretty good, the movement was interesting but some feedback on why some inputs were ignored early on would have helped (looks like it needs line of sight). <br/>I had a few of the ball things fall off a few levels, particularly level 3. Still, interesting idea. |
| Dec 20 01:22:00 | 1m 00s | Tap Root | Dont have 2 controllers to play with at the moment, sorry. |
| Dec 20 01:34:00 | 12m 00s | Lawnmower Puzzle | Simple enough to play but fairly fiddly. Some of the mechanics "needed explaining" which isn't a great thing when a lot of players are going to be in a hurry ;) |
| Dec 20 02:18:00 | 44m 00s | Patches Of Adventure | Link doesn't seem to point where it should? |
| Dec 20 02:49:00 | 31m 00s | Magical Girl Cannon | Cute but really hard to rate highly because all the flashing and the slow movement/huge hitbox made it hard to really play more tactically than spamming down the enemies. Not sure how the theme comes into it too much either other than leveling up, which felt like it rubber banded pretty hard (numbers went up but the enemies took similar times to die). Definitely quite polished for the time though. |
| Dec 20 02:52:00 | 3m 00s | naïade | Cant run it so I cant rate it but it looks amazing as always Pol :) Love the dense, vegetative feeling of everything. |
| Dec 20 03:02:00 | 10m 00s | Gardener Galaxy | Nice graphically and musically, but quite frustrating to play. |
| Dec 20 03:09:00 | 7m 00s | Grow Your Hoard! | More types of gobbo and upgrades would have been nice but was fun for what it was :) |
| Dec 20 03:19:00 | 10m 00s | Xtreme Crop Duster Simulator '82 | Cute and nostalgic but pretty frustrating controls, and looks like there's either a bug in the score or just very aggressive negative scoring :D |
| Dec 20 03:24:00 | 5m 00s | Radical Revolver Recoil Rampage | Fun, fiddly controls of course with the button requirement, separate jump button would have made a world of difference haha. Enjoyable. |
| Dec 20 03:27:00 | 3m 00s | Capling | Fun but pretty tricky to recover once things have gone south :) |
| Dec 20 03:30:00 | 3m 00s | Blink | Teleporting aim would be nicer with 4 directions, the rotational controls made it pretty annoying to get killed cause you spun it the wrong way. Probably becomes easy with practice but its hard to justify sinking time into an LD game if it doesn't grab you immediately. |
| Dec 20 03:37:00 | 7m 00s | Deceit | Unfortunately got extremely laggy on my laptop. I liked what I saw of the audio though :) |
| Dec 21 01:17:00 | 21h 40m | Colony | Very slow to start off. Nice enough idea of course. |
| Dec 21 01:22:00 | 5m 00s | Stardust | Yeah the asteroid coming right through the middle really messed things up pretty often. I like the idea though and the particle spam was top notch ;) |
| Dec 21 01:27:00 | 5m 00s | Insight | Cute little sandbox/resource management game, but not that much to do :) |
| Dec 22 06:27:00 | 29h 00m | An Outpost | Pleasant. The music was quite high volume and a bit sharp but with the volume down was an ok backing. Moving around didn't seem to do much other than let you look around. Destroyed houses counter seemed broken. Occasionally reported losses of resources I didn't have yet :) Nice enough graphics though some weird tearing issues on the tilemap now every now and again. |
| Dec 22 06:31:00 | 4m 00s | Mount FuJ | Looked nice. Controlled quite well if a bit sensitive. Very easy to cheese by spamming, haha - would have liked some upgrades and limited fire rate or something, but for what it is - fun :) |
| Dec 23 03:57:00 | 21h 26m | S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L. | Interesting ending. Ran kinda slow for me, and the aiming was pretty annoying, but the tech seemed reasonably impressive. |
| Dec 26 11:48:00 | 79h 51m | Neo Oxygene | Enjoyable if moderately easy to stumble upon a game over condition. Having the whole left side predicated on one resource which is unable to be generated without any of said resource is a bit tricky ;) nice music and gfx though and the plants grew into interesting shapes. Enjoyed your write up as well. |
| Dec 30 07:18:00 | 91h 30m | Agent Hooker | Fun! Really tight controls, only gripe is that shooting at the floor seems to align to the bottom of the floor tile, not the top, which means you've really got to pay attention to that overlay sprite ;) Difficulty ramped up pretty hard but that was enjoyable anyway. |
| Dec 31 07:56:00 | 24h 38m | Long Long: A snake lies in the Past | Really love this, unique idea executed about as well as id expect for LD :) controls and transitions could use some love as people have said, but thats the reality of it. Good work. |
| Jan 3 03:13:00 | 67h 17m | Keep Growing | Only complaint is it made my laptop turn into a lap warmer :D Very nice concept and game. I love these one-session-wonders each LD. |
| Jan 5 01:18:00 | 46h 05m | FleshTotem | Gross :) |
