| Apr 24 01:37:17 | Space Hummus | ♥ 1 | Potto pls | |
| Apr 25 03:31:12 | 25h 53m | Daily Routine: the smallest worlds are the ones we get stuck in | ♥ 3 | Wow. This game kind of just makes me sad. Very well-made though. |
| Apr 29 19:43:12 | 112h 12m | Hibernaculum | ♥ 2 | Beautiful game, hard to control. The concept was good, but it was very difficult to get the game to register you trying to rotate while jumping. Super impressed with everything visual. |
| May 1 04:03:22 | 32h 20m | Particulate | ♥ 3 | Overall fun game. Agario kind of feel to it, makes you want to play again. |
| May 1 04:05:31 | 2m 09s | Quantum World | ♥ 0 | Good idea, puzzles are fairly innovative. Wish there were more levels! |
| May 1 04:12:21 | 6m 50s | King Of The Seals | ♥ 2 | This game is beautiful. My life is complete. |
| May 1 04:16:11 | 3m 50s | Earth, 3568 | ♥ 1 | Well implemented and clean. Well done! |
| May 1 04:24:16 | 8m 05s | World Destroyer | ♥ 2 | Fun theme. Level progression is reasonable but not slow. The physics are a little wacky but then again the game as a whole is, haha. |
| May 1 04:32:08 | 7m 52s | No Minor Task: Party of a Lifetime | ♥ 1 | Intro was a bit slow, actual game was fairly well done. Could have had more variety (maybe with power ups, etc?) but overall nice and the cut scenes were pretty polished for a weekend of work. Well done! |
| May 1 04:39:15 | 7m 07s | Bitverse | ♥ 2 | I like the select-a-planet-and-teleport-there mechanic, can become super cool if the game ever expands to be bigger. Impressed at the number of unique sprites and levels for the short period of time. The actual fighting could be more interesting, but hey, you made this in a weekend. Well done! |
| May 1 04:55:35 | 16m 20s | Dungeon In a Bottle | ♥ 4 | Love the animation considering it was done in 72 hrs. I tried to do a lot of animation for the Compo and came up short of where I originally wanted to be. Levels come in a really good order and it's difficult but not impossible. Each one takes a couple tries. I like the theme, most people immediately jumped on space theme but this was different. |
| May 1 05:14:28 | 18m 53s | Retro Rabbit | ♥ 5 | Amazing job for Jam. Graphics were polished, music was super suitable, gameplay was simplistic but with power-ups and things that added variety and made it more interesting. Amazing job, expect this to rank highly. |
| May 1 05:20:53 | 6m 25s | Holy Shit! A Spider !!! | ♥ 2 | Must play with audio. 12/10. I like the variety of obstacles and a lot of the visual effects... the table shaking, spray can particles, etc. Also appreciate that you don't inevitably die, you can save your big spiders. Very well done! |
| May 1 05:26:03 | 5m 10s | Crunching Creatures | ♥ 3 | Fun to play around with, hard to see the really small things (do acorns even show on the screen?). Nice graphics, simplistic but still easy to tell what is what. I ended up mashing buttons to produce absurd quantities of rabbits. |
| May 1 05:34:58 | 8m 55s | Nucleu | ♥ 1 | Pretty, surreal mood. Procedural music was interesting. The sparkle orbits were really satisfying to capture and change color, I wish there was more to do once you were pretty much done collecting them. |
| May 1 18:21:50 | 12h 46m | SUNLESS | ♥ 3 | Nice simplistic game. I liked the puzzles and the variety of powerups and enemy types. Instructions would have been useful at the start, I kind of had to figure out through trial and error and it took me a while to figure out that I could jump on enemies to kill them, or even that I was trying to kill enemies. Like the art style! |
| May 1 18:34:04 | 12m 14s | Slightly Angry Max | ♥ 3 | Good job on this! Game played pretty smoothly, nice retro feel to it. I like the music and the assets you chose. |
| May 1 19:45:28 | 1h 11m | Invasion - The Chronicle | ♥ 1 | Graphics are pretty. Game concept seemed really cool, although a bit complicated to figure out, even with the intro. Music was nice but could have fit the game a bit better. Overall solid submission! Seems like it has potential if you ever continue to develop it. |
| May 1 20:00:41 | 15m 13s | Repeat | ♥ 3 | Interesting little game. I like the art style, it's very consistent. I wish that you had made more iterations with more little differences, would give a really eerie feel. I played through like four or five "really there's no more stuff" messages haha. |
| May 1 20:10:04 | 9m 23s | The Room | ♥ 1 | Aaaand came here to leave my rating. Very well done. |
| May 1 20:23:28 | 13m 24s | Planet Rush: Save the Moiks! | ♥ 1 | Took me a while to figure out how it worked, but I really like the game. Wish I had more laser cannons, it was tough protecting the planet from both sides. My strategy is just to buy a whole lotta cows, then use them to make a bunch of birds and then just use lasers. Not really sure what the moinks did, although I guess they were supposed to be a central part? Overall well done. |
| May 1 20:26:14 | 2m 46s | Abyss | ♥ 0 | Would try it out, but don't want to have to clone a github repository. |
| May 1 20:48:08 | 21m 54s | A World In Her Eye | ♥ 3 | Very interesting game! I like the feeling of running out of time --- my first time I got stuck on the pink planet, but I'm starting to think that that's the happiest ending anyway. Really good execution of the theme. Additional puzzles/endings would make it even better, and if you had more time for the graphics. |
| May 1 20:55:02 | 6m 54s | K.R.A.B.S. | ♥ 2 | Fun game. The web build kept making unintended Ctrl+W/A/S/D actions, and my network blocked the Windows standalone, but I got the idea from playing in the web. Very fond of the ripple effect on hit, graphics are generally pretty polished. |
| May 1 21:05:56 | 10m 54s | Abaddon | ♥ 0 | Interesting game, I had a lot of fun with it. It felt really dark, but unfortunately the audio didn't necessarily match with the *twinkle*'s and the *pewpewpew*'s. The assets you used were really good, overall well done. Impressive for 72 hrs. |
| May 2 01:25:11 | 4h 19m | Small World a Flask | ♥ 2 | Took me a little while to understand the game, pretty interesting. I noticed that the 2 and 3 buttons were switched for me. Best score was ~5800 from dropping only the heaviest balls. Nice job! |
| May 2 01:39:18 | 14m 07s | Monolith | ♥ 4 | Nice game. Graphics are nice. Has a real arcade feel to it --- I like the lock-on mechanic. |
| May 2 02:20:34 | 41m 16s | small World of Underbury | ♥ 1 | Good game, played this for a while. Managed to kill three society members. Generally not fond of text-based games, but this seems like it had potential if you developed it more. Nice job! |
| May 2 02:31:55 | 11m 21s | ⬛️ | ♥ 3 | Very simple. Nice audio. |
| May 2 02:43:35 | 11m 40s | Caterpillar Chomp | ♥ 0 | Beautiful game. Actual gameplay was simple and somewhat lacking, but the art was pretty. Once you turn into a butterfly, you can still use arrow keys to move sideways, causing your sprite to become a caterpillar. |
| May 2 02:57:22 | 13m 47s | Spider Royale | ♥ 2 | Love this game! Has a very QWOP-ish feel with the controls, but makes it really engaging. Very well-done AI's, very difficult at first. Game is a little laggy on laptop for web version, made it a little hard to aim dashes. Great work! |
| May 2 03:11:09 | 13m 47s | Catsorbed | ♥ 1 | Interesting game. A whole lot of graphics, which is impressive for 72 hrs. The fairies were an interesting addition, although a trackpad made it hard to use them while using arrow keys. The music and audio was suiting. Overall, nice job! |
| May 2 03:19:37 | 8m 28s | Spermicorn | ♥ 3 | Charming. Not sure if there was a way to lose the "race" part -- I just held down space and dashed through everyone. The egg phase was well made. Overall, nice graphics and overall smooth experience. Interesting theme choice. |
| May 2 03:50:38 | 31m 01s | Smalltrek | ♥ 1 | This is awesome! Puzzles are fun, the general style of game is really cool. Reminds me vaguely of 24 puzzles. Implementation was really great too, and fit the theme nicely. Great job! |
| May 2 04:54:35 | 1h 03m | flat search | ♥ 0 | Not sure exactly what to do with this, but crazy that you managed this much in an hour. I like how the ceiling looks and the overall feel, just wish it was more... gamelike. |
| May 2 05:03:36 | 9m 01s | What Do You Mean The Planet Is In Danger And All I Have Is This Deck Of Cards? | ♥ 2 | Fun game. Music is repetitive but suiting. I've actually been working on a randomized card game as a non-LD project and I know it's tough, but I like how yours turned out. It would be nice if it had more emphasis on strategy than on hope-you-draw-better-cards-than-the-other-guy. Love the rotating bits around the planets! Great submission! |
| May 2 05:08:41 | 5m 05s | Escape the World | ♥ 0 | Had a hard time figuring out how this one works. Looks very nice, though, and I like the concept of mining/expanding between Earth and external energy sources. Sometimes controls weren't responsive. Good submission! |
| May 2 05:28:33 | 19m 52s | a very small planet. | ♥ 1 | Fun game concept. I found it really hard to survive night one (might just be my strategy or something, I tried going for two trees before campfire). Graphics were simple but effective. Nice job! |
| May 2 05:33:43 | 5m 10s | Snail Fighter | ♥ 1 | Wow, this is tough. Graphics are pretty polished. I like the fact that your bullets loop around and hit you from behind, but that makes it super hard to not die from them. Top-notch graphics. Nice job. |
| May 2 05:51:34 | 17m 51s | Small World, Small Errors | ♥ 1 | Game was interesting. Took me a while to figure out the blue screen was a menu, not just an intro. Gameplay was fun, like 2D portal. Not super related to the "small world" theme, but hey, it was fun. Great submission! |
| May 2 05:57:09 | 5m 35s | Petit Prince | ♥ 2 | Cute little game. Graphics are nice and clean looking. Somewhat lacking in game design as far as how to lose, etc. but great job for 48 hour compo! |
| May 2 06:07:50 | 10m 41s | Baby Agent 009 | ♥ 0 | Nice job. Game looks really nice and the interaction with other objects works pretty well (minus some glitchy physics, but that's part of the fun). Interesting take on the theme. |
| May 2 06:16:12 | 8m 22s | The Shrinkifier | ♥ 0 | Interesting game. Not quite sure how to control how much the planet spins, but it looks really polished and runs smoothly. Plus, cows in space are pretty cool. Nice job. |
| May 2 06:20:39 | 4m 27s | Ultra-ninja VS falling zombies | ♥ 2 | Cute little game. Plays very smoothly with the camera zooms and the splatters, impressed at the level of polish despite the super simple graphics. Sound effects are funny. Nice job! |
| May 2 20:12:30 | 13h 51m | Stable Orbit | ♥ 1 | Cute little game. Audio really fit the "atmosphere" and added to the game. Graphics were minimalistic and well done. Getting into orbit wasn't that difficult once you got the feel for the gravity of the planet. It also would have been cool to add more obstacles; the single rock felt slightly out of place since it was the only one. Overall, nice job! Especially for compo. |
| May 2 20:24:49 | 12m 19s | Gnome Town | ♥ 1 | Amusing theme. One of those "what the hell am I playing games," but hilarious at the same time. Took me a while to realize I had to jump over the gnomes I shot. Well done! |
| May 2 20:59:42 | 34m 53s | Pizza Avventura | ♥ 0 | Couldn't really figure out how this one worked. It looks pretty well done, but more thorough instructions might be useful? I lost 11.50 and made 27 cents :P |
| May 2 21:06:48 | 7m 06s | Seagazer | ♥ 0 | Awesome idea, cool experience. Not too many actual "game" elements but very in-theme and fun to walk around. Well done for 48 hrs! |
| May 13 04:33:17 | 247h 26m | Her name | ♥ 2 | Very powerful. Nice job. |
| May 16 21:55:05 | 89h 21m | Run the World! | ♥ 2 | Reminds me of the old Pole Position games :) A little wonky with the 3D rendering... the movement of the other cars isn't very predictable and it's really hard to avoid them (especially after recovering from hitting one!). I noticed that being in grass isn't that much of a disadvantage, so you can just sit off to the side and spam up arrow with no drawback. Other than that, nice job for a 48-hour game jam. Well done! |
| May 16 22:01:48 | 6m 43s | The Tipping Point | ♥ 1 | Interesting game, I like the random snippets of dialogue and thought the random name generation was pretty neat. Not sure exactly what to do, so I just ran around coloring as many people as I could. A couple times, the dialogue included a FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME instead of the name I input, don't know where that came from. Overall, nice job, interesting take on the theme, and a nice little game. |
| May 17 02:01:11 | 3h 59m | Small World | ♥ 0 | Neat little game, pretty simple. Compo is hard, but good job on the graphics of the planet and enemies. Could use a little more gameplay complexity --- powerups, enemies that shoot, etc. Overall well done. |
| May 17 02:03:48 | 2m 37s | Defense Against the Giants | ♥ 0 | Only getting bright pink screen. Unable to play. |
| May 17 02:25:10 | 21m 22s | You Are An Elevator | ♥ 0 | Beautiful. I liked bonking their heads on the ceiling and watching them get angry. I clicked the "don't click" button and had to reload. |
| May 20 01:26:31 | 71h 01m | All The Way Down | ♥ 1 | Very different from most entries, but I think it's pretty neat! It's simple, but gets the idea across. The sprites of the sharks were well done, very easy to tell which direction they are about to go. My only problem with it is that while it's turn based, collisions seem to happen somewhere in the middle of each frame? If an enemy is moving to the square you are occupying as you are moving away, you still die. It would be nice if you could avoid losing in these situations (i.e. the "turtle moving" takes place before the "enemy moving" in the game logic) to encourage riskier plays :) Well done! |
