Dec 13 01:44:00 ISS - Infuriating Space Simulator Love the idea of this game, absolutely beautiful. But I spent 5 minutes unable to get that door open. Tried restarting. I'd like to come back to it and play it some more later, especially if you ever decide to change the controls.
Dec 13 01:51:00 7m 00s DOOMTANK Man this is great once I got into it. 26630 high score so far (probably pretty low, only played about 3 games). Definitely keeping this one around to play some more. Great job. <br/> <br/>The controls I think would be smoother with mouse aiming, although that may go against what you were trying to do
Dec 13 01:59:00 8m 00s Laser Panic Woah nice job on the rope. I like the movement. Fun to get into the groove of grappling around.
Dec 13 02:05:00 6m 00s Tower of Doom The fact that you don't die when getting smacked around by obstacles is great. Love having fun ramming off stuff and watching the physics unfold, need to see more of that. I think you might have a fun concept here if you expand on that idea more. Less punishment, more fun and whacky movement. <br/> <br/>Keeping track of the high score would be an easy way to improve the game significantly.
Dec 13 02:17:00 12m 00s This One Room Good to see more story games like this. Really was expecting the surprise to be more... well I guess it was repeated several times that it wouldn't be. Cute story. I see a lawsuit in the future though
Dec 13 02:23:00 6m 00s Live to Die Again I see someone's been following their art of the camera shake ;) <br/> <br/> <br/>Had a bit of difficulty switching weapons occaisionally. Think it could use more punch with the sound effects. Would be interesting to see what unique features you could add to this style of game.
Dec 13 02:27:00 4m 00s Essay Writer 5000 Great idea, funny concept, but I am way too lazy to pass this essay.
Dec 13 02:31:00 4m 00s The Perfect Murder I like the character models and shaders a lot. I think the game may be slightly buggy. One time I picked up a knife and the girl saw me, then I did a weird animation behind the guy I was suppose to kill, but it didn't complete, and then I couldn't kill him anymore. Kind of reminds me of those Nintendo Land mini games (or maybe it was Game and Wario).
Dec 13 02:34:00 3m 00s trails Not too shabby! Could use more work on the gameplay, maybe upgrades and some polish.
Dec 13 02:40:00 6m 00s AREA 51 This game is seriously bomb. Great jam game man, something I would've loved to have made if I were more competent at graphics. Really dig this.
Dec 13 02:46:00 6m 00s This Is The Only Room I only got to level 9. <br/> <br/>I know you'll get a lot of "it's a clone" comments, but I don't think I played a top down version of this and you did some neat stuff in it. Overall a really enjoyable jam game
Dec 13 12:23:00 9h 37m Puppertrator The game runs pretty slowly on FireFox, should've used Chrome like you suggested. I loved the snap sound effect at the beginning. Very cute game. I'm not great at mysteries, ended up guessing it lol.
Dec 13 12:29:00 6m 00s TILT Service Really cool. TiltBrush looks awesome. Very classic sci-fi. Also nice and short, perfect for a jam game.
Dec 13 12:39:00 10m 00s Nuclear Arms 3: Atomic Reckoning Killbane has some sick arms Commander President. Good to see more first person games without the shooting kind of guns. Hands for life. <br/> <br/>Found the interacting of objects (E to pickup) to be jenky, could be smoother. Eventually I was overrun by aliens.
Dec 13 12:43:00 4m 00s Battle Dads Loved how there was rumble on the controller. Cool concept. Could use full screen.
Dec 13 12:49:00 6m 00s Down the Cave Cute graphics! Sometimes the controls would mess up (or at least feel that way, like the character would start moving in a direction I didn't intend, or wouldn't respond. I was using FireFox, playing the web build). I think the game could use more "oomph". The tiny graphics make it feel dainty, when I kind of expect to feel more powerful from this kind of game.
Dec 13 12:58:00 9m 00s the room Very stylish, and very interesting. I am really glad you decided to finish this. We hear stuff like "fail faster" so often that we sometimes end up scrapping stuff before we put in enough effort to realize what the concept could be. Spending that extra day to finish this and putting in the needed effort was a good decision.
Dec 13 13:02:00 4m 00s Dizzy Danny This is pretty fun! Sometimes he doesn't shoot in the direction you're facing though. Kind of reminds me of BlastAbout
Dec 13 16:27:00 3h 25m The Legend of ROOMBA Hilarious but frustrating to control. My high score is 57. I took the bar in the top left as a challenge (thought it would be a special of some kind), so I was pretty disappointed to see what happened when it did fill it up. Especially because it's not easy to fill it up.
Dec 13 16:33:00 6m 00s Cyborg Ninja Training Room Pretty cool concept with the melee attack. Needs a bit of refinement, but that's jam-life. Sometimes I didn't know why I was getting killed.
Dec 13 16:35:00 2m 00s Sweet Dreams Getting an error dialog trying to run it, titled "Java Virtual Machine Launcher" with the dialog "A Java Exception has occurred." OK is the only option. I'm on Windows 7.
Dec 13 16:41:00 6m 00s Loading... Please Wait Really good idea here. Gameplay could be better. Couldn't find any other players, expect a Hello Games style lawsuit in the future.
Dec 13 17:24:00 43m 00s [Almost] One Room I managed to get the first combination, but I think I'm a bit too dense to get the next one. The massive file size is kind of annoying.
Dec 13 17:28:00 4m 00s Freeze & Crush This game is hilariously fun at first. I think if you made it a bit smoother it could be something
Dec 13 17:32:00 4m 00s Conștiență Hmm I got stuck a few times I tried this game. Not really sure how to progress in this one.
Dec 13 17:41:00 9m 00s Will you exit ? I've Won! Really good entry guys, especially considering your ages and the fact that you did this in Java, it's particularly impressive. Good jam game all around. <br/> <br/>I think one time the life counter glitched out on me (said I had more life than I did). Also the hit box on the green/red deathpits is too big (you hit them when you're clearly not on them).
Dec 13 17:46:00 5m 00s BossRoom This is a really great idea for a game. Was surprised after my first death, good variety in characters you play as. It is pretty hard to play as the skull. Could also use a bit more polish/emphasis on attacks/inflicting damage. At first I thought I could pick up the sword on the right.
Dec 13 17:48:00 2m 00s Mouse House Great art and sound, camera needs work. The jump is also hard to control
Dec 13 17:53:00 5m 00s Khaos Arena 353 beasts. Pretty decent. Sometimes the enemies don't freeze during the upgrades. Sometimes I lose a lot of health without realization. Are the upgrades cumulative?
Dec 13 17:56:00 3m 00s Moore, No! Very good concept. The choice of First Person perspective is interesting.
Dec 13 18:00:00 4m 00s Christmas Factory Merry Christmas :) I'm surprised we don't see more holiday themed games considering the time of year. <br/> <br/>I think Help should probably be up all the time. Also I am not sure if I broke it or not, but I kept clicking the #1-3 and then things seemed to have got stuck...
Dec 13 18:09:00 9m 00s Orb Protector I LOVED the presentation (although it does get annoying having to wait through it). Made it Wave 5. Is there any point in being able to drop your weapon?
Dec 13 18:14:00 5m 00s One Night Really good graphics and decent audio. The gameplay is really slow and really difficult
Dec 13 18:17:00 3m 00s keturi Really cool. First PICO game I've seen for this jam. How many levels are there?
Dec 13 18:22:00 5m 00s visje Wow this is beautiful. I'll have to keep coming back to this one to see how my little baby fish is doing :)
Dec 14 15:31:00 21h 09m Space Junk Really good graphics. I especially like the way the astronaut died. It was fun finding all the different ways to die. The game itself seems pretty relaxed. Pretty good for a web game. I did find the restart took too long though (be nice to just be able to click through it).
Dec 14 15:34:00 3m 00s Bat Cave The audio is pretty scratchy. I like the addition of the jump, changes up that classic Space Invaders/Galactica gameplay. Sometimes playing the web version I lose control of the game due to the controls.
Dec 14 15:40:00 6m 00s Hyper Holomayhem 37 I love this game. I think it's amazing. Exactly what I am looking for in a jam game.
Dec 14 15:48:00 8m 00s One room-one car-one flag This is actually pretty fun to play once I figured it out. I did manage to beat it.
Dec 14 18:31:00 2h 43m Room Kingdom Pretty good, great length for a jam game too. Some of the graphics are a bit glitched (going through doors for example). I didn't like having to switch between mouse and keyboard, although I guess you have to for the computer stuff, the interacting stuff that required click probably didn't need it.
Dec 14 18:36:00 5m 00s Speed square 43 deaths, 106 seconds. I keep commenting on games saying that I like how short they are (which is wonderful for rating games) and once again I really appreciate this being a challenging skill based game I can beat quickly. Pretty fun, great job!

Dec 14 18:42:00 6m 00s One Room Rush This game is seriously awesome. One of the best I've played for this jam. The graphics are juiced up so well, great job!
Dec 14 18:45:00 3m 00s Subway Taxi Great graphics. I fell off the edge... and then i kept falling and losing money...
Dec 14 18:56:00 11m 00s Furnished The voices make this game. I played this with my girlfriend, and we were pretty confused as to what we were doing. Definitely an interesting concept.
Dec 14 19:00:00 4m 00s Creeping Darkness I like this kind of game. Overall pretty simple. Took me a long time to realize you had to press "Start" to start the game (also it was offscreen at first), might be a good idea to make the game loop within itself. Sometimes I'd get hiccups where it'd freeze for a bit then run very fast and I'd end up losing control of the character and die.
Dec 14 20:46:00 1h 46m Survive the Barbaric Vikings This game is sweet, i love the graphics. Once you get the bow you're kind of overpowered. Would like to see some health pickups.
Dec 14 21:56:00 1h 10m Dodge, Dash, Dip, Dive and Duck This is a very interesting movement mechanic, I don't think I've seen it before (although I guess you can think of it as just top down, but for some reason it doesn't feel that way). When I grabbed the ducky in the top left corner, I thought I had beat the game because I went up into my hat (didn't hear the death sound effect). Only when I went to play the game again to explore the rest of the tomb did I realize the vines are what killed me.
Dec 14 22:10:00 14m 00s Machina This is pretty darn cool. I started playing the web version, but then downloaded. Definitely recommend everyone download this. The atmosphere is great in this game, I especially liked the time machine's effect when turned on. Great work with the audio overall. <br/> <br/>Is there any specific reason you chose F for interact over the standard E?
Dec 14 22:15:00 5m 00s Project hotel First! <br/> <br/>This game is super eerie. I haven't found the one room yet, but I really like the way the story is told. Made me pretty nervous. Good graphics too
Dec 14 22:27:00 12m 00s Room One Really nice graphics. It'd be cool if it ran in the background so I could browse the net while waiting for my moonberries to blossom.
Dec 14 22:33:00 6m 00s Neon no Nakama Yay I beat it. I liked it when the maze appeared. I think the speed of the character could be faster. I liked the simple graphics a lot. Overall, I enjoyed escorting my group of neon friends around :)
Dec 14 22:45:00 12m 00s Daedalight I beat it! That was pretty cool. I found the head bob after a while to be nauseating. I don't think I ever had any spatial understanding of the layout, just sorta brute forced my way through it. The story and aesthetics felt personal to me.
Dec 14 22:50:00 5m 00s Mega Mecha Control Room Really good idea. I think the jump should allow for movement mid-air (sometimes it feels off).
Dec 15 01:01:00 2h 11m VaporArenaWave クール Very cool aesthetic. I played the post-compo version and I am rating based on that AND I DON'T CARE WHAT THE CONSEQEUNCES AR#E
Dec 15 01:12:00 11m 00s White Room The right mouse button to focus you on the ball is really interesting, I don't think I've seen that before. I find switching colours difficult with 1,2,3. I think right mouse button or the mouse wheel would be a better spot. <br/> <br/>Really great concept, and I think if I could switch guns faster I'd love it.
Dec 15 01:23:00 11m 00s One-Room-For-All Hotel Really great use of the theme. I love the menu graphics too. $700 was my best
Dec 15 02:14:00 51m 00s Sidereal Lifters Corp This is super cool. The chain links look awesome. It's pretty hard to control and see what's going on, but maybe that's what you're going for. Wish I could continue my mission when I fail it. Super cool stuff man
Dec 15 02:35:00 21m 00s GhostGun Victory! Great art style, love the guns. Would love to see some indicator beforehand as to where the ghosts will spawn.
Dec 15 02:43:00 8m 00s INF This game is nuts! I love it so much. Amazing job
Dec 16 15:20:00 36h 37m Escape The Room That was pretty cute. The two codes are cleverly hidden (especially the second one).
Dec 16 15:27:00 7m 00s Fishing Rod 3000 I liked the graphics a lot, especially the borealis and the curved line.
Dec 16 15:31:00 4m 00s EntROOMpreneur This is a really good idea with absolutely excellent art. It breaks really easily though. I'd like to play a version that is a bit more stable.
Dec 16 15:37:00 6m 00s One Room Factory Great use of the theme. Like others said, the tutorial could be a bit more in-depth.
Dec 16 15:41:00 4m 00s Santaur's Workshop This game is hilarious. Loved the graphics and audio. Sometimes clicking the stars will put down defences where I wouldn't want them. Also I had no idea how much anything cost, so it was kind of hard to manage my resources.
Dec 16 15:46:00 5m 00s SwapOrDie This game has a really interesting concept. Sometimes the guys would fall off the ground into oblivion. I'd like to see it a bit faster.
Dec 16 19:15:00 3h 29m Bouncing Balls with the Boing Boing Boys Moving around on these balls feels sooooo good.
Dec 16 23:04:00 3h 49m Vespias: Battle for the pentacle Hmm the control scheme was pretty confusing to me. Is there any reason you went with that scheme vs WASD? I'm not sure I fully understood what I was ever doing. <br/> <br/>Good job for you first jam!
Dec 17 01:55:00 2h 51m Tim in Time This is an extremely good jam game! The writing is superb, so funny. Looks great and sound great too. I did manage to get killed by dinosaurs while talking to the big one and have the dialog continue after restarting. The variety the platforming bit adds I think adds quite a bit to the game. Even though the ending is a cop out it kind of fits. I laughed the first time I read the note was from God. Great work, definitely one of the best I've played so far.
Dec 17 02:09:00 14m 00s Namcap's Nightmare Wow, this is extremely clever and well done. I can't believe I haven't seen something like this before. I got to 49/50 before I was killed. So close!!
Dec 17 18:44:00 16h 35m Obelisk Really good looking game, excellent presentation. The gameplay needs some work, hitting enemies isn't fun and the sound effects on it aren't great. The story is excellent, overall one of the best
Dec 19 22:30:00 51h 46m Tempus Machina The switching mechanic reminds me of an old Matt Thorson/Dex game, Dim (http://www.mattmakesgames.com/, second from the bottom). There's was more puzzley while this is more actiony. Actually thinking about it, this reminds me of the first DuneWorld game we made (and is very bad, don't play it). <br/> <br/>Good graphics, the concept of switching has a lot to be explored still and it's good to see more games do it. I think this game lacks a bit of a gameplay loop, didn't really find myself engaged enough (this is a very hard thing to figure out for an action game like this).
Dec 22 18:29:00 67h 59m Geometry Encounters Love the menu title graphics, really good font. Think you did a great job with keeping the graphics simple. The game like you said isn't finished, so it's really hard to judge it. The lack of a restart is particularly problematic, something as simple as SceneManager.LoadScene(0) (might have the wrong function, just going off the top of my head) after a few seconds after your death would go a great ways to fixing the lack of ability to replay it without quitting the application and starting it up again. <br/> <br/>I remember when I was 14 and making games. It took me so long to actually finish my first game, I don't think I ever completed one till I was 22 or so. But once you figure out how to wrap a game up, you start seeing how to wrap other games up. I'd suggest you finish this game up, add an ability to restart it, some simple sounds, and a score counter and you'll be done. Good luck!
Dec 22 18:38:00 9m 00s Spacedoor This is a great idea, really glad I played it. I would like to see the FPS controller be a bit smoother. Also would like to see more polish on the interactions (like LordSK was saying). Great mood, good job
Dec 22 18:39:00 1m 00s Volcano Quest A Java Exception occurred :'(
Dec 22 18:44:00 5m 00s COHAV Culmination Of Hatred And Violence The feel is pretty good. The platforming is a bit heavy for me though. I think I like games that are floatier, just a personal preference
Dec 23 01:25:00 6h 41m Home Decorator Sadly I can't get this game to run. Sorry, I try to play everyone's game who left me a comment :(
Dec 23 01:28:00 3m 00s LocusLudi Really wanted to try your game, but I couldn't get it to run. I've had this trouble with other jars (although some have worked), so maybe it's something on my end. Sorry. But good job completing the compo! That's an achievement in itself.
Dec 31 04:37:00 195h 09m A bank is a dangerous place Great use of the theme! I found it pretty funny myself. Is it possible to beat?
