| Apr 18 19:38:00 | Buck Shift | I really liked everything but how fast some of those enemies move/shoot and how long they take to kill. It's painfully hard to stay alive, even if you do manage to upgrade. Nice music :) | |
| Apr 18 19:47:00 | 9m 00s | King Killer: Ghost Assassin | Good stuff, I like the idea! I tried to for a while but couldn't do the 4th level, it seems no matter what I do the second guard gets alerted and reaches me before the first has popped. |
| Apr 18 19:53:00 | 6m 00s | SHΔPE | GREAT GAME! Of course I have to say that because I went with a similar idea for my game, but a bit less intuitive. But yeah I think you did this really well. What's your personal high score? :) |
| Apr 18 20:02:00 | 9m 00s | Revamp | I thought "how hard can this really be?" and I realised that it's not so hard but the checkpoints are just so few and far betweem that redoing obstacles that you done 100 times every time you die makes things tedious. <br/> <br/>I just want to clarify that I think this is an amazing entry, and right up my street in terms of difficulty of pulling of the moves, but re-doing a long gauntlet every time I die kind of killed the fun. Great game though :) |
| Apr 18 20:12:00 | 10m 00s | Polyjam | Nice idea, a little easy to be honest. And maybe if missing even one counts as losing then just stop the game/ restart as soon as 1 star is missed. Nice work nonetheless :) |
| Apr 20 11:47:00 | 39h 35m | SAMSARA | Nice idea but it keeps breaking after a short while. I am able to get the first 10 shapes or so and then it just stops working. Also the music doesn't loop. I'd be happy to come back and re-rate when you've fixed the bug :) |
| Apr 20 11:59:00 | 12m 00s | Neon Shifter | 38 :) Nice little game. It's hard to judge what to do when it gets really fast because missing loads can cost you so much, it's sometimes just better to kill yourself while you're ahead rather than risk losing all those points. Would be nice if there were a visual when you fire. |
| Apr 20 12:19:00 | 20m 00s | ⬛R⬤PPING ONTO SH▲PES | Nice unique take on the trangle-square-circle shape changing theme that we've seen so much during this competition. I got completely stuck on the one where there were circles as walls on either side and a big triangle in the middle that you can move. tried about 100 times and still no luck. I guess I liked it if I stuck around that much though ;) |
| Apr 20 12:27:00 | 8m 00s | Shape Switching | jesus cripes that's hard :P I got 7. It's very hard to anticipate what the next shape will be sometimes because the falling patterns are so similar it doesn't because obvious whether you'll hit a square or triangle for instance until it's much closer, at which point you have no time to change your mind. I enjoyed it though :) |
| Apr 23 01:20:00 | 60h 53m | Don't Be a Square! | Whoa, I was all ready for a boss fight at the end, I guess I'll just settle for a shit in my pants. I really liked this game in the end, but I didn't at the beginning. You throw the player in at the deep end a little, whichever direction you go you have to 1) be able to see the lasers, they are pretty invisible <br/> 2) know the controls well enough and anticipate the enemy enough to dodge the crazy frequent lasers, for 3 kinds of enemy in one case. 3) anticipate where the next enemy is going to appear and which polarity they will be. 4) Know the controls well enough to under pressure switch polarity accordingly. 5) learn that some lasers pass through the floor completely. 6) be able to jump and shoot at the same time, while dodging lasers. 7) not throw your laptop out the window and curl up in the foetal position. <br/> <br/>oh and you have to realize that some of the projectiles are actually just harmless particles. <br/> <br/>Good points: <br/> <br/>I love a challenge, and once I got used to everything that was happening I really enjoyed the game. I just wished each aspect of difficulty has been introduced a little more incrementally. <br/> <br/>I really like the music. At first I thought it was very basic, but with how hard the game was, this simple repetitive music really made me feel uneasy, and judging by the ending I guess that's what you were going for. <br/> <br/>Love the triangle design and animation. <br/> <br/>Very cool concept with the charges and adding/subtracting sides. <br/> <br/>I like the art in general. <br/> <br/>Very moody, opening the final door felt satisfying. <br/> <br/>Well done man! The game was brutal but I love it :) |
| Apr 23 08:16:00 | 6h 56m | how to run | Congrats on completing your first compo! |
| Apr 23 08:33:00 | 17m 00s | The polyman | Not really sure what you're meant to be changing into :P i completed it! Apart from getting stuck on the geometry all the time it wasn't bad. Well done! |
| Apr 23 18:33:00 | 10h 00m | Toyquake | Lovely game! I plpayed for a good hour trying to beat that other guy's score of 50 but only go to 34. I've rated it for now but I'm going to come back to it later. At the moment I'm not sure if when you get to a certain level it just becomes chance if you will be able to get across at all. It kind of seems like it... If it is just really well tuned and I need to learn the timings then this is by all accounts an amazing entry. Nice one :) |
| Apr 23 23:20:00 | 4h 47m | Shifter | Holy crap that's hard got to level 3 and the hole seemed literally the exact same size as the sphere, and I had about half a second to adjust. Would help a little if the indicator was a little more visible before about 5m away from the wall :D I liked the challenge though, and the viusals. It's just a little impossible. |
| Apr 24 12:37:00 | 13h 17m | Glu | Really nice game :) I love the graphics, the particle effects look awesome. I encountered a bug though. as I righted myself in preparation to jump the last horizontal laser in the level in your first picture, i was forced backwards one square. This happened several times. The bug is also re-creatable on the same level by just trying to do the first bit as fast as possible and will happen just before the second corner after you glue the first block to yourself. Hope that's clear enough to work with. |
| Apr 24 12:55:00 | 18m 00s | Aether Crypt | Great presentation. Could have been a little more challenging, but I had fun :) transforming into a wide character while touching a wall gets you stuck. I'm not sure but do you ever actually need to be water? you can just jump out of the water with helium, right? Great entry despite these points. |
| Apr 24 13:03:00 | 8m 00s | Spirit of the Ancients | Nice, very promising but obviously very short :) great mood from the beginning. |
| Apr 24 15:53:00 | 2h 50m | Morphling | Great entry! satisfying controls, great graphics, music, sound. All good :) |
| Apr 24 16:35:00 | 42m 00s | The Deronois | Promising game :) shame you didn't get to flesh it out a bit more! |
| Apr 24 16:46:00 | 11m 00s | Squishy | Nice little puzzle game ^^ |
| Apr 24 18:29:00 | 1h 43m | Robot Snake | Great little game! Well made, polished. Nice take on a popular idea. |
| Apr 24 19:00:00 | 31m 00s | Bichux | nice entry! simple, effective. Ramps up nicely |
| Apr 25 12:44:00 | 17h 44m | Squircle | Fantastic entry! I probably would have considered giving 4 overall for the lack of audio, but that intro more than makes up for it. The graphics were minimal, sure, but that's sort of the only way I'd expect a game about geometric shapes to be. It's a funny, well presented, fun platformer with a great narrative and a really nice pace, and really charming. It's also the first game I'm giving 5 across the board :) |
| Apr 25 21:31:00 | 8h 47m | Trios | Well presented! Collision was a bit dodgy and I kept sliding backwards a lot. is this just using rigidbody physics? Might work better if it was. You could even use 2d physics since you never move in the y axis. <br/> <br/>Would be good if you didn't spend a point if you accidentally try to turn into the shape you already are. <br/> <br/>Nice work :) |
| Apr 25 21:48:00 | 17m 00s | The Great Biohazard Escape | A pretty good point and click :) nicely done! I got stck at first because I didn't know to click the bottom of the screen to turn around. Maybe some king of visual indicator would help? |
| Apr 26 21:15:00 | 23h 27m | Turbo Transform | Great game! It would be cool if there were a harder mode, I get a little bored sitting through the first few levels. |
| Apr 26 21:31:00 | 16m 00s | Happy Shape Shifter | oh my, this is such a weird, brain twisting game. I play a lot of difficult games and I'm genuinely surprised it's such a challenge. I love it! so far I always die fairly fast when the hearts come. I see a deeper level of understanding of the game which I haven't even begun to discover: being aware enough to smash shapes into each other, rather than just focusing on the ones that are lined up to hurt you. Let me know if you make this into a mobile game or implement some kind of online scoreboard :) |
| Apr 30 22:59:00 | 97h 28m | Wormwall | I got 20! :) very fun game |
