May 1 08:03:06 Seven Pillars ♥ 4 Hey, I played your game and I wanted to leave some honest feedback that you hopefully can use. My first impression is good, that graphics are nice, and I like the music as well. The visual style, gameplay and music fits really well together. Gameplay wise I didn't get it at first, and I still dont fully understand why you sometimes loose a life or get pushed back. In my mind the objective was to go forward? But I think you need some indication of what you need to achieve, and to somehow show that the controls keep changing. I also think it could be a lot more fun if the phase in the beginning is really fast, the keys are really simple and then gets a lot more complicated, so I the player gets a success and are getting pumped. I hope it makes sense. Gratz on making this little gem :)
May 1 08:14:25 11m 19s Myrddin ♥ 2 Hi, I had a chance to play your game. Right off the bat I got this dungeon crawler vibe, the graphics and sounds are very retro, and I think thats very positive. Controls are easy to understand and you get the gameplay quite fast. Whould I would have liked is some sort of small story, along with a objective. I didn't know what I was doing, killing spiders but why? what's the point? If my objective was to kill 3 spiders or something then I had a goal and something to work towards. I got the feeling that I could just walk around and look for spiders forever. So I ended my play through. I saw the gameplay video afterwards and noticed that I missed the boss fight. Which is ashame. Gratz on finishing the game, I enjoyed it. The music is really nice, and it's impressive you did all this in 48 hours.
May 1 08:21:51 7m 26s The World At Your Feet ♥ 1 Hey ! I played your game. I have some feedback that I hope you can use. Great game. It's easy to get into, and it explains it self after playing a bit. I wish I somehow got told in a way that the objective is to jump high. I didn't get that before the end, and if it somehow could be a bit easier to start with and then escalate. I found it hard to get over 5 meters. Really cool game you should keep working on it.
May 1 10:08:30 1h 46m Naughty Gnomes ♥ 1 Hey, I played through your game, and thought I would write you some feedback. It's really lovely, and I really like the extra surprise menu point, it fits with the game. So right from the start I got sucked into the universe. The style is neat, and well executed. My biggest thing about the game, is that it somehow needs more to the gameplay, I found myself waiting a lot for the gnomes to be in the right spot where I could attack them. Which wasn't really Challenging for me. That was a shame because I got a little bit bored. When you win and the sound plays the sound was very scewed which my ears didn't really like, so I think it's a place where you could improve a bit. The music was nice though. Gratz on finishing this game for the jam, that's a big thing in itself :) I really enjoyed the game and I hope you can use my feedback for something.
May 1 10:14:34 6m 04s Natural Killer Prototype ♥ 1 Hey, Nice atmosphere, sounds and look to it. I enjoyed floating around and being small :) Like the other guys mentions it would be great with some kind of objective, I think there was one, but I didn't really get it.
May 1 10:20:27 5m 53s The Last Haven ♥ 1 Hey man, I tried out your game, I really like the controls, and these kind of games are always fun to play. I guess all the other guys was AI? Pretty cool. I didn't get the objective or what I was suppose to do? I just kept killing guys. That would have been nice. I also missed some sounds :) Cheers
May 1 10:27:49 7m 22s Noizy ♥ 2 Hey, Best game I played so far at LD38. It's really fun and challenging, which is for me important. I was entertained all the way through. Besides that it introduces kinda a new gameplay mechanic with the cube rotating. Really cool! The style and sound design is great as well. Really nicely done. Gratz.
May 1 11:58:25 1h 30m Globe Trot ♥ 4 Hey, I really like your game, it's fast pace, and gives the player (me) a good challenge. I felt like it was hard to get a hang of the controls, I would have preferred a mouse to aim and shoot with, since it gives more directions and it seems more intuitive. Really cool graphics as well, and nice though that you collect orbs to gain points. I missed a high score? That would be easy and fast to implement. Gratz on finishing this, I hope you continue to work on it :)
May 1 12:12:10 13m 45s Chill Bill ♥ 1 Great game ! Easy to control, nice art and cool sound design. I'm digging it. It's a bit repetitive when you get into it. The energy from soda's was really nice, and the humor was great as well. Nicely done.
May 2 13:36:11 25h 24m Retro Rabbit ♥ 4 Nice, it had some nice progression in it, cool art and the music fits. Great job ! If something I wished it would have a bit more gameplay in terms of maybe a power up or some enemies that you needed to kill. But me wanted more is a good thing :) Cheers
May 6 10:01:09 92h 24m Dung Beetle ♥ 3 Hey Guys, My first impressive was that the graphics is nice. It's a funny setup as well. I think you need something to make it more interesting, maybe the pile gets smaller as you go, so there is a limit to your moves, or maybe you need to steal the crap from another beetle. I also think the controls could use some work, its hard to control, I get that it's the point, however I think the best way to go about is to make it hard to master, but there is a way right now it seems really random how you move the dung. I really liked the music as well, and the camera moves are pretty slick. Gratz on creating this game :)
May 6 10:07:46 6m 37s Rocket Roller Space Polo ♥ 0 Hey, I played a couple of play modes. First impressive was that the graphics are nice, it has a very cute style to it. The concept is really easy to get and understand, there isn't even a need for a tutorial. Great job. I was missing a goal or a purpose though. I don't know how to win, I just played the game a bit and that was that. I also think maybe other inputs for the player could give it more gameplay. The sounds was pettey simple, some music would have been nice. I really liked the pace of each game, it was snappy and fun. Gratz on finishing this.
May 6 10:14:21 6m 35s Bazooka Freaks ♥ 1 Hi, I really like the idea. It was a bit of a shame I was only playing with myself. But I could see this being really fun online or with a friend next to you. It's nice with the explosions because it's harder to hide, would also be really cool with different weapons. Something to think about :) Also the sounds are hilarious.
May 6 10:21:33 7m 12s Leucos ♥ 1 Great game ! My first impressive was that the graphics looks really nice. It's pretty impressive all the enemies you created, power ups and the whole environment. Thats quite a thing to pull off. Gratz. I was missing a bit of challenge and I kinda felt cheated when I felt of the platform and just died because it was going so well :/ Really nice entry, the music is also spot on :)
May 6 10:26:03 4m 30s AS Mall World ♥ 1 Nice to play something different. The whole style and mood is great ! I'm really digging it. Maybe there should be some obstacles to prevent you from just buying everything. It could be other comsumers trying to buy stuff before you on black friday. That would be epic, in a big rave you would need to just buy everything you can. Great submission and gratz on creating this game.
May 6 10:34:12 8m 09s Flerth ♥ 1 Hi Guys, Again you made a great game. Actually I'm not sure you are the same team, but I played your game @parahunter from last LD. The style, gameplay and everything is nicely put together. Maybe the gameplay could use something to make it more challenging. I'm really impressed by your entry again, gratz.
May 6 10:41:04 6m 52s DownHere ♥ 1 Nice entry, but I think I got stuck. or maybe the game was over? At least when I got to the top the camera just froze and won't follow the character. Anyway really nice game, once I got the controls it was quite fun. I enjoyed playing it. The music and the art goes really well together, and it creates a nice cozy place you just wanna hang out in. You should keep working on this :)
May 6 10:51:12 10m 08s Fog and Glass ♥ 0 I think it's a brave entry, and it was a nice story. It's hard to capture the player with these kind of experiences, maybe if you added more music and sound clues to the context, that would help with immersion. Cool entry none the less.
May 6 11:12:56 21m 44s Blomst 🌻 ♥ 1 Pretty neat ! I think this is the game I spend most time with.
May 6 11:16:49 3m 53s Little Sprout Garden ♥ 0 I got pretty impressed by the small guys, they gather and stuff. Would be nice if they could populate by them selves, and maybe create tribes that fight each other :D Also death would be a cool thing, and you could play god. Great Entry
May 6 13:11:29 1h 54m Becky's very very Small and TOTALLY not mundane World ♥ 1 Great game, I really enjoyed it, but the difficulty should increase and maybe it should be faster so you just can't keep going. The music and art really fits nicely together.
May 6 13:18:02 6m 33s Here Be Fish ♥ 1 I think my guys had sex with each other? :D lol... lovely game.
