May 1 09:22:29 Space Turtle ♥ 3 The game is awesome and the fact that you made it in 48 hours is pretty insane. The mechanics are fairly simple but it makes the gameplay very fun and addictive, graphics look great I loved the effects of the planet and asteroids blowing up, I know you said you struggled with the soundtrack but it came out very atmospheric and it really matches the action on the screen and the overall theme, hands down 5/5 game!
May 1 10:11:44 49m 15s Shrinking Planet ♥ 1 The graphics and the audio are really positive and colorful it creates a really positive vibe! The gameplay is quite challenging but in a good way I found myself trying to break my records again and again, would've loved to see a number showing me my record on the intro screen. Overall I loved it 5/5!
May 1 11:17:16 1h 05m Amadeus ♥ 2 I'd say that you don't have to get stuck on the theme if you don't like it, make something you will enjoy. As for Amadeus I really like the idea behind it, I think a child trying to find his parents is a theme everyone can relate to. The visuals look good which helps the game, but I wish the mechanics and gameplay would feel a bit more dynamic and challenging, because I was able to beat the game in just 1-2 minute and didn't really feel rewarded for doing it. Overall I like the game considering the struggle you've gone through with the theme, keep creating looking forward to new game from you!
May 2 21:13:54 33h 56m Attack of the Planetary-Vampires ♥ 1 Great game! The gameplay is simple and fun, graphics look impressive and the audio really fits the vibe as well it's dark and gloomy. Would've loved to see some more variations of enemies like some that do zig-zags maybe, and an upgrade system to spend all that money. But I may be reaching 72 hours is a short time and you guys did a great job making this game, really enjoyed playing it!
May 2 21:24:12 10m 18s Qwer CiTy ♥ 2 Looks great, nice audio, great concept, the controls were a bit frustrating in the beginning though, once you get over that I really liked what you guys created!
May 2 21:33:57 9m 45s Slightly Angry Max ♥ 2 Amazing first entry. I was utterly impressed by every aspect of the game, looks great sounds awesome and is very fun to play while being very challenging which I know is very hard to accomplish. The only thing that frustrated me is that I couldn't shoot through the crates but hey that's just me. Overall a very well deserved 5/5 entry!
May 2 22:10:53 36m 56s Island Boom (but it's cats so it's okay) ♥ 1 Loved the concept, even though the game looks simple you sure have put in a lot of time to make the movement and the weapons work properly, as a result the game plays really smooth! The only things that bug me are the graphics and the AI which is prone to killing himself unless you are standing right in front of him! Overall, great game, fun to play but would love to see it more polished in the future!
May 2 22:35:19 24m 26s Membrum ♥ 2 Amazing concept! I lived until 135 years so I could say I did ok, but in all seriousness I love the idea behind and you implemented it very well which makes it very fun to play especially the first time when you have no idea what you are doing. The graphics and audio are good, I would absolutely love to see this game polished and extended into a full fledged game, overall I'll definitely say this is a 5/5 entry!
May 3 09:48:35 11h 13m Space Raiders ♥ 3 Mind-blowingly awesome! Love the way the game looks, sounds, feels and plays. The fact that's great about it is that I think it would be really easy to scale it and make a full game with more modes an upgrade system and a story behind it but that's for the future, right now the game is definite 5/5 in my book, great work, keep it up!
May 3 10:14:15 25m 40s ZEUS VS MOLES ♥ 1 Love everything: the aesthetics, the gameplay, the sound, and the idea (it's really relevant to the theme which a lot of time goes unnoticed). The only thing that could be improved is the camera, as other said it spins sometimes but that's a minor complaint. Overall the best compo game I've played this LD, 5/5!
May 3 10:28:45 14m 30s Wee Planet ♥ 1 Fun game! I love the idea of destroying UFO's and asteroids with lightning bolts, made me feel like Zeus :D. Visually it looks good, very fun to play, it got really intense by the end which was awesome. Would've loved to hear a soundtrack even a some one, that's really the only complaint that I have. Awesome job!
May 3 10:57:42 28m 57s Star Traveller ♥ 3 Very atmospheric and relaxing game indeed! I enjoyed trying to understand what I was supposed to do and clicking on all the planets, visually the game looks great, the soundtrack is awesome as well, and the gameplay fits the feeling that you tried to create. Overall, after playing the game I feel exactly like the star traveler at the end of your game - ecstatic, 5/5 entry!
May 4 14:50:50 27h 53m Violent Goat ♥ 0 Amazing first entry! You made a very fun platformer in just 48 hours and it was in 3D as well which is an insane amount of work, great player and enemy model, the platforms, walls and environment props also look great. It's really easy to control the player, the movement and jumping feels smooth and that's a great achievement, the problem with being stuck to the wall is no biggie it can be solved by just changing the material on the collider in Unity so I don't even consider that a problem. I also like the humor and the idea of the game, the music felt a little off but that's just me nitpicking. Overall the best compo I've played so far, would love to see you participate in the future and make great games! PS.: oh yeah and put some screenshots in the description and a cover image you could attract a lot more attention that way!
May 9 09:20:47 114h 29m Battle Ham' ♥ 1 Lovely game! You captured the theme quite well, I love the setting that you guys created, the graphics look very interesting even if they're not polished and the old-school soundtrack and sound effects fit really well and bring back some good memories. The gameplay is quite interesting but I think you should work on balancing it a bit, I was able to beat the game in less than 1 minute which left me confused like: "Is that it?!", presently I see no point in creating miners or spawning different types of soldiers you can win in a couple of seconds just by spamming 10 warriors(and probably only one of them would die). That being said I think this is easy to fix, just play around with the stats, overall you made a great game, holla at me when you balance it I want to play more at that point! Great job, keep it up!
May 9 10:28:34 1h 07m RoboLand ♥ 1 Amazing compo game! It's fun to play, the graphics are super clean and beautiful, sound effects are on point and the difficulty curve is designed very well so I never got the feeling that the game is too easy or too hard. This may be the best compo I've played in this LD, 5/5!
May 16 13:51:02 171h 22m Bunny On A Plane ♥ 0 Great idea, amazing execution! I just love the vibes that the game has and how positive it looks and sounds, the controls are very easy to pick up and the plane controls very fluidly which is great, the graphics look excellent for a game made in just 72 hours and the soundtrack and the subtitles are the cherry on top of this very delicious cake. The only thing that I felt could be changed is the camera angle, I'd like to see the camera be right behind the plane it would make it a bit easier to see into which object you're about to fly into, but that's just my two cent advice. Overall definitely a 5/5 entry, very fun!
May 16 14:01:45 10m 43s Operation: Small World ♥ 1 Amazing cutscenes, graphics and story! Love the amount of humor you managed to sneak into the game, I would say it's the funniest game I've played this LD. The gameplay was a bit disappointing to me tbh, but I realize that happened because of time constraints. Overall the game is amazing, enjoyed it a lot, thanks!
May 16 14:13:29 11m 44s The Space Explorer ♥ 1 Bow down to the space explorer! Amazing game, I was actually immensely surprised by how good the game looks - the 3D assets look amazing, the sounds is completely on point and made the game even more pleasant to play, the controls are fluid easy to understand, you could say that the combat is not perfect but it doesn't bother me at all, only adds to the charm. The story is amazing, you even made cutscenes! Overall I have nothing bad to say about this game this is the first game that I gave 5/5 all across the board, you guys are amazing!
May 16 14:39:16 25m 47s Pineshore Planet ♥ 1 You should have called it Amazing Planet, because the game is really outstanding! Loved all the quests, I even managed to get stuck on one of them for a couple minutes :D, the mood is so positive and playful it really elevates the experience to a higher level, the models and their bouncy animation look very good, and the soundtrack is top notch! 5 stars for you sir, you deserve them!
May 16 15:01:00 21m 44s Asteroid Hopper ♥ 1 Man this game is hard! But definitely in a good way, most games made for LD you can beat in 2-3 minutes max, this one took about 1 hour, props to you for designing such great puzzles! The visuals are very nice, soundtrack is very spacey and calming, which I like a lot! Overall this game is awesome, and more importantly I think you could easily expand it into a full release and be successful with it, would love to see that!
