Dec 16 20:04:00 THE GARDENER At first when things started sprouting I thought to myself, "Great, another game where I grow plants." <br/> <br/>Then, I realized what was going on and some of the levels are kind of complicated! I think you could have benefited from making 'SPACE' the jump button as well. <br/> <br/>Great game!
Dec 16 20:26:00 22m 00s Deep Growth I liked the ending! Overall I think it's a nice little game to play. It wasn't too hard though there were some parts that threw me off but I managed to finish it. <br/> <br/>The music gets a bit tiresome after a while and the growth power up sounds were starting to get to me. It might be that my volume is a bit high, though. <br/> <br/>Good game!
Dec 16 21:24:00 58m 00s Run Cube, run! It's s pretty simple premise but I like that you changed the perspective - gives it a little oomph.
Dec 16 21:35:00 11m 00s tree: the root. There is no context really to what you're supposed to do. I figured it out after my second play-through when I just kept going down and I guess I found a portal? <br/> <br/>A lot of it is trial and error and guessing which direction to waste all my moves in. I'm still not quite sure if I understand what's going on.
Dec 16 23:45:00 2h 10m Kimmirut Chasm I really enjoyed the story and the graphics. Those little pictures definitely made it more enjoyable! <br/> <br/>My only suggestion would be to pick a better font. I know the one you currently have matches the theme but it could be saved for titles and larger text. Once it gets smaller it starts to get illegible.
Dec 17 01:34:00 1h 49m Dude On Fire Such a great looking game! I'm going to have to express the same sentiments here - you aren't given enough time between when you see the obstacle and when you can react to it. <br/> <br/>It's super frustrating and while the game sounds nice and looks nice, I stopped after my third death.
Dec 17 05:00:00 3h 26m American Excess I love the story and the humor. The graphics are pretty neat too. I wasn't a big fan of the button changing directions - it got super confusing, but I guess that's part of the game play!
Dec 17 05:11:00 11m 00s Saneedling I'm uh ... not sure what's going on but I managed to win, I think? I ate everything :) <br/> <br/>I feel like planting the seed was really trial and error and that wasn't really fun. I guess I don't know why it was wrong or why it was right when I did get it right. <br/> <br/>Either way, not bad!
Dec 17 05:16:00 5m 00s Droid Shootout --- A Sci-Fi Mouse-Click-Only Survival Game This was pretty cool. I enjoyed the fact that it was a rails shooter, haha. Movement can be a bit wonder at times and seeing my cursor would throw me off, but not bad! <br/> <br/>I almost made it too. Backup was coming in 10 seconds and I only had 2% HP left!
Dec 17 05:20:00 4m 00s Winterland This was a very neat game! I love the art and the simple play style. I felt so bad every time the polar bears would hit something. Poor baby polar bear just didn't want to stay close to it's mom ... :P <br/> <br/>It was a bit challenging to control four keys but it wasn't too bad.
Dec 17 06:16:00 56m 00s IVY Great concept! Loved the audio choices, as well.
Dec 17 06:45:00 29m 00s INFERNO (Level up) Two... buttons. <br/>... I see what you did there :D <br/>A lot of waiting around for enemies, but all in all, good execution!
Dec 17 06:53:00 8m 00s Hanami - Push-Up Farming I just... I. What did I... this... wuh? <br/>I love this. I. Love. This.
Dec 17 17:07:00 10h 14m SUPER SCIENCE CORP I love the story and the graphics are great. Aiming, firing, and trying to move all at the same time made it hard but it wasn't too bad. It's a nice addition. <br/> <br/>Great game!
Dec 17 17:20:00 13m 00s Save the World Not bad! It's a simple game but it's not terrible. <br/> <br/>It was confusing at first simply because I didn't realize there were saplings. I think you could make them a bit more noticeable or maybe not have them blend into the foreground and ground so much. <br/> <br/>I like the music - nice and soothing. Visually, it could use a lot of polishing but for a 48hr compo I'm impressed you got audio, graphics, and game-play in there all by yourself. <br/> <br/>Good job!
Dec 17 18:00:00 40m 00s Akuto This is a really nice concept! I love the 3D models and the simplistic look to the game. <br/> <br/>The enemy AI really impressed me and presented a really nice challenge. It takes a little getting used to the fighting controls but it's really nice. <br/> <br/>I think having to use multiple buttons/keys for movement and attack is not quite necessarily "two-buttons" but no one said it had to be. It can be taken literally or even not at all. <br/> <br/>Either way, I enjoyed your game. Good stuff!
Dec 17 18:12:00 12m 00s Berg in Space The obstacles were confusing and some of the spaces you have to squeeze between are kind of a bit too tight. However, I did enjoy the challenge and the music added to it. Nice job!
Dec 17 18:24:00 12m 00s Spongos : Family Adventure Tried to get it to run locally after it not working online, nothing happens. I think it's worth it to properly host/embed it somewhere.
Dec 18 01:15:00 6h 51m Super Soaked I liked that you guys tackled the issue of how to move around without using more than two buttons. It worked out nicely. It took me a while to get used to the movement but I had a lot of fun with it. <br/> <br/>Loved the music!
Dec 18 01:32:00 17m 00s I can. This was barely tolerable for me. I know the slow text is supposed to contemplate the mood and story but this was just ... torture. <br/> <br/>I'm conflicted because the story was very well written and it did evoke feelings that I wouldn't think it would but at the same time I was frustrated on how slowly-paced the dialogue was.
Dec 18 01:46:00 14m 00s Two-Punch Man Switching from attack and defense is a little buggy, but great game!
Dec 18 17:06:00 15h 20m Bilby's Adventure It's kind of difficult but I think it's because it's a little buggy. I will completely clear a jump but will still die anyway. <br/> <br/>Love the music and the graphics aren't bad.
Dec 18 17:27:00 21m 00s Klodowski Hah, this is a pretty decent point + click interactive story. I did play twice just to see what the other options were. I also really liked the graphics - their style lent itself to the humor :P
Dec 18 18:20:00 53m 00s Friendly Plant From Beyond This was really fun to play. I was a little confused when I got to the third stage because it didn't make sense to me which was small and big but it eventually clicked. <br/> <br/>I did felt guilty eating the poor dogs :( <br/> <br/>Nice entry!
Dec 18 18:47:00 27m 00s [JJJ] - Jolly Jail Jumper Solid game! The difficulty might be a bit too high as one mistake can set you all the way back. I still had a lot of fun and the mechanics are awesome. <br/> <br/>I love the music, the animations, and it comes so naturally on a game pad. Good job!
Dec 19 03:58:00 9h 11m Combo Farm Great little puzzle game! The music got a bit repetitive and I would have opt for right-clicking being the rotation button but nice nonetheless.
Dec 20 20:03:00 40h 05m Beanstalkers Extreme: Takin' Out The Trash Great game! It is a little short but still fun. My favorite part was having to hide/sneak :)
Dec 21 18:26:00 22h 23m Low and Flow The sound effects and music were a bit distracting to me. I did like the concept and your take on the theme of growing up. I used the mouse since the controls seemed unnatural to me.
Dec 21 18:31:00 5m 00s Weight Control I really liked your game! The jumping mechanics were pretty good and added to the complexity. Great job!
Dec 21 18:39:00 8m 00s Dog Gone Big! This was a solid entry. I loved the "story-mode" to the game and I liked how each time you played it was a little bit different. Great work!
Dec 21 18:43:00 4m 00s Santavania Loved movement feels, really solid. I love the theme and the checkpoints being snow globes. Just wanted to mention the WebGL worked fine for me on Firefox as well!
Dec 21 22:36:00 3h 53m Grow a Beard! I've always liked these Wario-type, fast-paced, mini-games and this was pretty good! The accent at the beginning was a little hard to understand. <br/> <br/>Love the music and the graphics. Great stuff!
