Dec 12 06:47:00 Sitting here, thinking. The VN! Nice mood and melancolic atmosphere. I like the setting of the story, being stuck in the prison and just facing your own memories. Sometimes the grammar was a bit off, but it wasn't unsettling. Pretty good textual game overall, backed by some simple nice art. Cheers
Dec 12 07:03:00 16m 00s Raise The Roof Well I've always wanted to be a mushroom grower :) After having read the comments I went through the help file to understand what to do. You should specify in the description the contents of Help.txt as it's not too long. The game was quite long once you understand the mechanics, but I like the concept of growing things to survive VS a shrinking screen trying to kill you :) <br/> <br/>Good job overall
Dec 12 07:22:00 19m 00s The Infinite Sorrow of a Heartbroken Mind I just love the polish of the animations and the way that things shift from one shape to another. I love the concept of infinite repetitive items and the feedback you get when you solve one piece of the puzzle. <br/> <br/>Everything ran fine on my machine, but I have a good video card so I can't speak for others. Otherwise, I also loved the mood and while the music was a bit repetitive, everything felt very cohesive and super polished. <br/> <br/>On the downside, I had a bunch of collision issues and sometimes things were a bit odd... <br/> <br/>Otherwise, full stars ahead, Cheers :)
Dec 12 07:33:00 11m 00s Flag Runner Such an awesome game.. Love the subtle details like the screen shake on death/impact, the way that rooms shift from one shape to another. Everything is very fluid, the player is handled just as well as in super meat boy. Levels are challenging and rewarding. Nice twist at the end. Amazing job overall.
Dec 12 10:16:00 2h 43m The Labyrinth Room Pretty cool game! I loved the top-down view and the fast-paced action which reminded me of Hotline Miami. The game is pretty easy once you get the gun... Somehow my fists were more accurate than the chainsaw :) My only real complaint is the main music composed of just a loop of 8-9 notes... The loop is too short and the sound gets on your nerves, or drives you crazy to the extent that you become a zombie... Wait....... :) <br/> <br/>Great job overall!
Dec 12 10:24:00 8m 00s Concierge Very solid entry. Loved the simple character animations and everyone was distinct enough that it made it easy to remember who was what and what they were going to do. I wasn't able to get more than 5 survivors though! I'm probably missing something... <br/> <br/>Great use of the theme, love the werewolves card game reference. Really good job overall
Dec 13 04:22:00 17h 58m After Party Wow I loved your entry!! I'm a huge fan of Hotline Miami and this brought me right back, along with a super "funny" and original storyboard. Top notch graphics, hate the shotgun dad, super fun to complete :) <br/> <br/>Awesome job
Dec 13 05:19:00 57m 00s atomic-swerve Nice game, very original mechanics! The controls were a bit tough but whenever I was able to connect when and where I wanted, it was very satisfactory :) If you had more time you could add some impact effect, perhaps some particles to make that moment a bit more crisp. Nice game overall :)
Dec 13 05:51:00 32m 00s The Story of a Ministry of Truth Employee As a huge fan of Papers Please!, I really enjoyed your game! Love the twist on editing the paper to make the dystopian government look good. Great music, wonderful mood as well. <br/> <br/>My only downside was that it was hard to get feedback on whether I did something right or wrong when shipping the papers throughout the game (though the score at the end gives you that). Also some of the options were blue on transparent background and it was hard to read what I was picking. Too bad you can't change a choice either. <br/> <br/>Overall, I really loved your game and the narrative it came with it. <br/> <br/>Great job. <br/> <br/>(this post was NOT edited by a journalist of Oceania... Or was it... :)
Dec 13 06:02:00 11m 00s Man Cave Defense Really solid entry in the TD world. Loved the fact that you had to deal with the resource management by getting the right item to produce music while thinking about which towers to build and where. <br/> <br/>Small downside is that all my towers would usually fire up at the same time at the same target, wasting lots of ammo. Lovely graphics and music. <br/> <br/>Great job
Dec 13 06:21:00 19m 00s Domain Got my chocolate :) <br/> <br/>Great entry, I really loved reading through the setting. That crisp font and those bright colors make each level transition a pleasure to see. The gameplay was a bit repetitive and sometimes it was taking a long time to push a wall against another last-survivor. Otherwise, loved the humor, nice graphics, lovely music. Great game overall :)
Dec 13 06:26:00 5m 00s Pib Gloob's Warehouscape Well, I just wish there were more levels to play :) Because this has a lot of potential! I love the animations and the concept of using fans to navigate through the puzzle. Begs to be continued after this jam :)
Dec 13 06:37:00 11m 00s Line Them Up One of the best entries I've played so far. Being a huge tetris fan growing up, I just loved this entry. Everything is just really good... Graphics, music, the stressful atmosphere and challenging gameplay. Just really really good overall. Cheers!
Dec 13 09:01:00 2h 24m Rescape Pretty unforgiving platformer, I like hardcore :) Nice selection of levels, they all made me want to kill myself lol. Simple sounds, very good controls. I wasn't quite sure when I could get out, seems like I didn't always have to pick up all the loot to get free. Really fun overall
Dec 13 09:03:00 2m 00s Mead and Murder! Is there any way you could do a windows or macos build? I'd love to try it out
Dec 13 09:20:00 17m 00s Can I leave ? Nice entry! I like how the game is set up and the stress provoked by a horde of zombies slamming doors. Sounds were a bit repetitive, but the animation and graphics were quite good. The turret was a bit overpowered, but perhaps it's because I got it early in the game... <br/> <br/>I got stuck on lvl 8 as one of the zombies outside was stuck.. Couldn't do much, other than go outside and die... alone... lol <br/> <br/>Great job
Dec 14 01:22:00 16h 02m Occupied Awesome short little game, loved the humor and graphics! Still not sure how I can wipe myself without using all the toilet paper but I did manage to not crap my pants and look presentable. I like the adrenaline caused by the timing bar coming down real fast. Dialogs were funny and big oscar-winning sound for the ultimate moment when it all goes down like a bad case of expired guacamole! <br/> <br/>Cheers
Dec 14 06:42:00 5h 20m Stack Overflow Wonderful take on the Tetris theme. Loved the music and the graphics. Initially, moving up and down floors was pretty tedious but I ended up getting the hang of it after a while. Wish there was some sort of ending after a certain score. Great job :)
Dec 14 07:52:00 1h 10m Happy Tower RTS SUCCSS!! :) <br/> <br/>well I really like the take on the TD theme. I think your pathfinding algos are quite amazing. Everything was very fluid and I think the only thing I missed was some clarity on the units as I had a tendency to kinda put them all together and shoot at whatever was the strongest. Nice graphics, sounds were a bit repetitive when too many units were shooting. Great entry!
Dec 14 08:00:00 8m 00s Cranky Adventure Amazing art, I loved the idea of making a breaking bad themed game. Great story and really good idea on playing with a mini-game key-presses + clickathon as well. My only feedback is that sometimes you don't get feedback on how well you did your actions. Like I could press the wrong keys I wouldn't even know. Anyhow, it was super fun to play :)
Dec 14 08:09:00 9m 00s Feather Gladiator Really fun little arcade game! I often wished that I could jump with the Up arrow, making it easier to jump/attack at the same time. Loved the graphics, addictive music and original idea. Game became a bit repetitive after 150 points, was hoping to see more monsters. Very solid entry otherwise! :)
Dec 14 08:23:00 14m 00s 3 Minutes 2 Escape 1 Room Really nice looking exit-the-room game. Stressful to find the last remaining keycard, but I finlly found it after my 3rd try :) Ticking sound didn't bother me. Having the remaining time at different places made it really cool. Nice entry!
Dec 14 08:35:00 12m 00s KILLOBIT really great game! thanks for putting the contrller controls in. Love the animations, super hard but sooo rewarding to pass a level :) fantastic job
Dec 14 18:45:00 10h 10m sweet dreams... My wife would really hate that game :) Really liked the execution, especially the graphics and spider animations as they come crawling from everywhere. Also the idea of making the lights dim throughout time makes it even spookier. I guess the game just needs a bit more content, perhaps an ending, or maybe levels (night 1, night 2, etc.) or different strategies to make it a bit less repetitive. <br/> <br/>Really cool job for 48h though
Dec 14 18:51:00 6m 00s Connection is lost Pretty good game! Felt like a tamagochi on coke where I had to constantly move between the objects to stay alive. It took me a couple of tries to figure out where all the elements were, but once I got the hang of it, it was actually quite fun! Great little concept
Dec 14 19:06:00 15m 00s The Small Escape haha well it's a good first entry! it'll be nice to compare with your future entries to come! nice smooth scrolling, I had fun pestering the guy's face until I realized I wasn't actually good, but actually invincible :) <br/> <br/>Great job on your first entry!
Dec 14 19:12:00 6m 00s Interdimensional Chrono Janitor Service Really cool concept. Loved the fact that objects were destructible when moved with a lot of force, loved also the concept with rewindable time. Graphics were pretty simple but very straightforward for the game. One thing I would have done is limit the # of bombs the player can place so that there is a bit more strategy involved in making the highest score. Cheers
Dec 14 19:21:00 9m 00s BOSS ROOM FREEDOM!! Wow I loved this little game. Made me think of a perfect mix of Lemmings and Castlevania :) Initially thought the concept was quite simple, until it evolved with the moving platform, and then the final boss. Really well executed, cute little graphics, sounds were a bit ennoying in the long run and I miss some music. The rest was very well crafted. A small bug allowing to jump multiple times, but the ennemies were fun to kill, lots of action and the platformer worked really well. Really good entry!
Dec 14 19:28:00 7m 00s Coincidence I just loved the cartoony graphics/style, thanks for providing a timelapse as well. Nice little puzzle! I was stuck at one point until I figured out I just needed to sleep again :) I thought the rope would be the end of me lol <br/>Really great job
Dec 14 19:34:00 6m 00s Damage Control Nice little game, I was quite impressed with the pathfinding algo which worked flawlessly accross the board. I eventually ended up just making the same long path around my ship, fixing as much as I could until I ran out of energy, and then hunting down the energy blocks. I'm not sure I had the best strategy. I liked the mini-map, though most everything became red quite fast. I guess my only complaint is that it's hard to know how much energy one item will cost to fix, and the impact it has on the overall ship haul repair. Otherwise, really good job!
Dec 14 22:32:00 2h 58m Boomerang Boy super fun action-platformer, reminded me of the original mario games where you'd play 1v1 in a similar room with turtle shells and ennemies. Loved the fluid animations and difficulty. Got to 17 :) Well done!
Dec 14 22:37:00 5m 00s Haystack Quest Really cool entry! I absolutely loved the graphics, the music and the level loading where parts are shuffled together. Gameplay was pretty fun at 3 coop, it's super rare in LD. My suggestion would be to get some feedback on when it's your turn (I got skipped a couple of times while looking at some game details) and also making sure the text is rotated to the player's view to make it easier to read. Other than that, top notch :)
Dec 14 22:59:00 22m 00s HourGlass Collector This game is so good in so many ways... It's challenging and rewarding, it's fun and engaging with an awesome soundtrack. Graphics are good, gameplay is super original and very well crafter. Bravo
Dec 15 05:03:00 6h 04m Blob Catcher Nice little arcade game that would be a lot of fun on a mobile device! I like the concept of chaining exposiong with multiplier combos for more points, that's very innovative. Gameplay becomes super hard very fast and it's pretty unforgiving, but overall I thought it was a great small action game. Good job!
Dec 15 05:07:00 4m 00s Defend the Room Pretty cool little arcade game! I quickly realized on my first run that I better save my bullets and grenades lol <br/>Game becomes super hard quickly in the second level, but I like the idea of powerups, leveling, etc. Well executed. The only thing that really bothered me was to not have a mouse cursor to show me where I was aiming... Other than that it was quite well executed. Cheers
Dec 15 05:11:00 4m 00s Don't Break the Door Just loved the concept and audio of your game. It quickly becomes super hard especially when the path changes shape and messes up your mind! I lasted for 1m14s and got lucky at some point. Became nearly impossible towards the end, but I think that's the idea :) Great job
Dec 15 05:16:00 5m 00s Dot really cool game for 5-6h. Not sure if you composed the music within that timeframe as well, but if you did it's completely amazing!! Otherwise simple gameplay, impressive for 6h of programming. It just takes a very long time to start: I could just jump over the ennemies as soon as they fell until I reached about 20 points (4-5 min into the game) so the challenge only started late. <br/> <br/>Great job otherwise!
Dec 15 05:18:00 2m 00s Elevator Samba haha well 5 stars for innovation, I've never seen so many different unrelated things combined into one game. That was actually quite an enjoyable little arcade/platformer game. Loved the music and fast gameplay.
Dec 15 05:24:00 6m 00s LiftOperator 2016 Cool concept, I quite enjoyed going back and forth trying to maximize the amount of people that could fit into the elevator, hoping people would stack up like a chinese subway on rushhour. Wasn't able to see a score so I couldn't quite know how well I did in my second run. Great little concept, you should take it further with some smooth jazz music :)
Dec 15 06:54:00 1h 30m Local Exhibition Pretty cool game, I like the variety in the rooms. It was pretty fun to explore as many things as possible. Too bad you didn't get to finish it with all the rooms!
Dec 15 07:01:00 7m 00s Lost Veil Loved the art style in this. I too was stuck at the night sky, I literally tried the clock on every hour... Finally ended up exiting by clicking the painting. Really nice atmosphere. Good job
Dec 15 07:19:00 18m 00s Ludum Dare: The Game Amazing game on all levels, I had thought of doing something similar as well. The execution was perfect. Loved the audio and the graphics. Can't believe you did this in 48h, such an awesome entry!
Dec 15 07:27:00 8m 00s Ludum Dare 37 Very cool little game. Tough to keep a manageable size, I really like the concept of discovering the color at the last moment. It would be really interesting to see what you come up with with more than 2 colors, maybe some bonus spheres or something. Good job
Dec 15 07:34:00 7m 00s Moving Day Really fun entry, it felt like I was playing the Sims from back in the day. Too bad you can't go back in the catalogue to plan your purchases better. I love the contept of putting everything that you bought in one room. Would have loved some music!
Dec 15 07:37:00 3m 00s One Room for No One Anymore Super nice painting, I actually quite enjoyed the dialogues and was wondering if I was actually going to make it or not... Would have loved a bit of music to go with it, but actually the beeping of the machine just makes the whole atmosphere on its own so it's probably better that way. Good job
Dec 15 07:50:00 13m 00s Polygroom Really neat entry!! The concept is very simple and yet it's super fun and enjoyable. Loved the fact that you implemented a shop and powerups, sometimes I wish the cubes could move a little faster into my visor so that they can be thrown correctly. Simple sounds and music but effective. Great job!
Dec 15 09:01:00 1h 11m Sam Really awesome entry, I love the story and the graphics. Music was very nice as well. You are super talented in all domains of game making: great story, superb graphics, etc. Well done!
