May 1 22:47:17		Miskro	♥ 2	I'm most impressed with the scope of the game. It has adventure, story, and fun puzzles in way that is very polished. I love the soft, bright color palette and the light-hearted mood it gives off. It's almost as fun watching people stream it as it is playing the game itself, haha. Really lovely game.
May 1 23:00:31	13m 14s	Your Planet: Too Big	♥ 1	Wow, I'm terrible at this game! Don't worry, I still love it. :D The dialogue along was funny enough to make me want to keep playing. I got the hang of it right away and got a liiiittle better over time like when I realized you can click on the tiles when they're moving. Reminds me of the old days when puzzle games were actually challenging! The concept of the puzzle itself is really unique and the textures make it all the more charming. Unique application of the theme too, making a world smaller, haha. Nice job.
May 2 01:03:30	2h 02m	The Shrinkifier	♥ 1	Pretty unique concept, like a half-puzzle, half-gambling game. Took me a minute to figure out exactly what was going on but I eventually got 600 points, lol. I thought the abilities might refresh after each round so I blew those early and the rest didn't go so hot. The interface is nicely drawn but a tad confusing. Still, I had fun playing it!
May 2 01:16:31	13m 01s	Step-Squish	♥ 1	Cute, simple game. It could benefit from some enemies that are a little less predictable; if you stand about 3/4 of the way to the right, you'll basically never be hit. I like the variety of the feet sprites, haha.
May 2 01:38:23	21m 52s	Get Off My World	♥ 1	I saved the world! OK so the controls are a little slow and it could use a restart button, but I eventually won after losing twice. (By the way, you can opt out of being scored on audio if you don't want to be rated on it.) The concept, essentially interstellar sumo wrestling, is really charming and funny.
May 2 01:48:05	9m 42s	Small World Inc.	♥ 1	I can't for the life of me figure out how to build the elevator higher. :'( Sorry! I was a big fan of SimTower back in the day so this is bringing me back big time. The drag-and-drop interface is easy to use and all the tooltips make sense. The game is intuitive if you've played a tower game before and understand how to balance the different types of rooms, but yeah, I wanna play this more if you'll please let me know how to build up the floors... Just FYI, the web build gets stuck after it downloads all the data for me (Windows / Firefox) but after a few minutes it eventually loaded. Windows build worked great instantly though.
May 2 02:03:21	15m 16s	Fixville	♥ 2	Very ambitious for a 48 hour game. The opening cutscene was really marvelous, you really get a sense of these tiny fixers and their small world. The slow move speed in the big world is pretty frustrating though, that would be the one change I would make. I thought for a game jam the scope was pretty good and I don't mind the simple puzzle ending. I hope you had fun and/or learned something new and I hope you hang on to this game idea and elaborate on it some day!
May 2 02:08:37	5m 16s	Inter-Tidal Snail Breeder Deluxe	♥ 2	Beautiful game with intriguing breeding variations all wrapped up in so-slow-it's-actually-intense controls. I also like the really wide, fixed camera, because it definitely makes you feel like an outsider rather than a snail (even though you control them). The level of polish is really nice and my favorite part is probably how the particles indicate which way the water is moving. Once you figure out how to ride the waves it's fairly straightforward to eat up the seaweed but the snails' short lifespans makes it a challenge. Nicely done 👍
May 3 18:43:29	40h 34m	Little Lands	♥ 1	Had to take a break from work to play this game, I saw the thumbnail on a Tumblr post and need to play it IMMEDIATELY. I love city building games and this is an outstanding take on the genre, especially for a jam. Honestly it's worth playing it just for the adorable ending and the awesome music at the end, haha. It's really cool how the world morphs and shifts shape after pirates attack it. I thought the interface was really intuitive too. One of the best games I've played so far. :)
May 3 22:57:05	4h 13m	For The Love Of Money	♥ 0	Pretty fun, pretty straightforward platformer. I didn't think it was as hard as you made it sound. :P It has a very retro feel, like an old Commodore game or something, because of the fixed camera and the chunky graphics. I'd like to see what it feels like with movement speed a little faster. Funny concept, even though I don't understand why all these moneybags are laying around in such a dangerous cave, lol.
May 3 23:07:56	10m 51s	Chuck and Bull	♥ 4	I think you know there's not much to do in this game, but the level of polish is nice. I guess it reflects the simplicity of farm life, haha. The "hot wife" and her comment are really weird though. I really like the cleanness of the pixel art and the good music.
May 3 23:21:13	13m 17s	COSMOMOMOMOº	♥ 1	Very original, I think that's why I was initially confused on what the goal was, haha. Figured it out pretty quickly after reading your text but I think something about the textures obfuscated the perspective for me. The controls feel very nice and it's fun watching the projectiles circle around the planet. Awesome music.
May 3 23:42:17	21m 04s	Naughty Gnomes	♥ 1	Amazing pixel art! The animations, the typography, and all the visuals are very nicely designed. I don't know if it was my computer (i7/Windows 10) or if it was intentional, but the game seemed to run really slowly to me. I like the puzzle/shooter aspect to it, and how you have to wait for the gnome to be in the 'window' to shoot them.
May 16 22:54:04	311h 11m	The Tipping Point	♥ 1	Love the simulated social interactions of the game and the crazy cool interface. It's actually a very challenging game too. Turns out I am equally as bad at making friends in this game as I am in real life. My favorite part is the humor and the uniqueness of the randomized names.
May 17 22:40:49	23h 46m	EVO	♥ 1	Amazing presentation, I really adore this game. It seems really full-featured as is but obviously it would be super cool if you kept working on it. I didn't realize you could scroll to zoom in until late game but I just wanna say I love the bouncy select animation. There's a surprising amount of detail in the animals I would have missed too. The interface and the tutorial are the most well designed parts of it all (something many LD games overlook) and the music is lovely as well.
May 17 22:50:30	9m 41s	Way Too Small	♥ 1	LMAO, THE ENDING! I actually laughed out loud. Funniest game I've played so far. Even funnier is the people who don't get the joke. At first I was like, "this game is hideous," but the blocky graphics make it all the more funny. Sound is a bit noxious but again it fits the style of the game. One more thing, make sure you've uploaded your source code, the link didn't work for me. Nice game, truly enjoyed it!
