TimestampSince previousGameSpinaljack's comment
Apr 23 23:29:58 Crater Creator ♥ 3 Love it, it's like a mini kerbal space program
Apr 24 11:15:16 11h 45m Platform Patrol! ♥ 2 Nice models
Apr 24 11:19:29 4m 13s Rescue the Poolers ♥ 0 Good job on your first LD
Apr 24 11:22:06 2m 37s Planetary Garden ♥ 2 Fun game and nice art style but why doesn't Earth Prime collect resources while I'm on other screens?
Apr 25 11:52:10 24h 30m Galactic Girl and the Puzzle Planets ♥ 4 nice game, found the double jump to be tricky to pull off. maybe add auto double jump to space bar while indoors. also when you leave the planet your old suit is still on the floor inside, what's up with that? new suit? clone? did the original die on the planet? that mystery will prey on my mind.
Apr 25 16:01:16 4h 09m Scenes in a Globe ♥ 0 nice, too bad you can't shake it to make it snow though
Apr 25 16:53:01 51m 45s Flurpies ♥ 1 cute and nice animations, so can you influence the evolutions? there's lots of placeholder screens in the house, is that just unfinished?
Apr 25 20:51:41 3h 58m Planet Desumaton ♥ 7 cute game but damned if I can beat that other planet!
Apr 25 21:03:43 12m 02s Icarus Isolation ♥ 1 nice art and sound but controls are difficult to use and I think the crystal on the column on the starting island is not collectable.
Apr 25 23:20:07 2h 16m Slightly Angry Max ♥ 2 Nice graphics, loads of potential and hey, if you decide to take it commercial I hear that Nintendo Switch devkits are pretty cheap ;)
Apr 25 23:28:38 8m 31s Planetary Remains ♥ 1 Really nice game, love the concept and execution. If you want to expand it maybe add objects you want to deflect into the planet or have objects that you aren't allowed to shoot to mix it up. Boss encounters?
Apr 26 00:07:58 39m 20s FLUORIDER ♥ 1 Lol, reminds me of the mouth level in the old ren and stimpy game, love it
Apr 26 00:17:24 9m 26s Tiny Tony ♥ 5 Really love the look and atmosphere but bloody hell that gasp gets annoying
Apr 26 00:34:34 17m 10s Petty Puny Planet 38 ♥ 3 Really nice game, got a few of the endings
Apr 26 09:02:28 8h 27m Ark Initiative ♥ 1 Game jolt doesn't want to load for me. How about uploading it to ich.io or a zip of the game files? A shame cos I was looking forward to playing this one.
Apr 26 14:25:29 5h 23m Quantum Catburetor ♥ 3 Fun game, the shrinking view makes it really difficult to play but I guess that's the idea, very trippy. I got 5000 points.
Apr 26 15:31:14 1h 05m Smoke, the machine keeper ☁ ♥ 1 Lovely. Ladders were a bit annoying though and what's the purpose of fixing the machines or money? I fixed the ship and left, I guess the moral is don't let the grind get you down?
Apr 26 15:47:15 16m 01s Marbleverse ♥ 3 Nice game, commentary on the futility of mankind? lol
Apr 26 19:46:05 3h 58m Tribes of the Turtleland ♥ 3 really simple and fun concept, strong disc world vibe from the turtle as well :)
Apr 26 19:50:38 4m 33s Star-Crossed ♥ 2 Fun/frustrating game, actually took me a minute to realise I should wall jump off the green block. The comment about super meat boy tipped me off on that one. Can't get past the 2nd planet though.
Apr 27 10:12:38 14h 22m DIMPOCK ♥ 1 OMG this game is so great, hard as nails though
Apr 27 10:41:21 28m 43s Tiny Dungeon ♥ 1 nice theme and concept
Apr 27 10:51:46 10m 25s Spaceworm - Defend a sacred tree from worms invading your planet ♥ 1 Nice work, difficulty could ramp up quicker though.
Apr 27 10:56:51 5m 05s Roguelike One ♥ 5 nice graphics
Apr 27 11:03:30 6m 39s Rogue of Worlds ♥ 0 Nice sprites and scrolling anim
Apr 27 11:12:30 9m 00s 6-Sided Sojourn ♥ 1 OMG so cute, love it
Apr 27 11:23:29 10m 59s Train World ♥ 1 nice game but why use media fire when you can use ich.io?
Apr 27 11:37:10 13m 41s Rogue Basement ♥ 0 nice rogue-like
Apr 27 11:42:49 5m 39s Echo Lands ♥ 2 Nice transition animations, very juicy. I think I encountered a bug when all enemies fall off the platform nothing happens and you get stuck on that level.
Apr 27 14:02:16 2h 19m Murder Mitosis ♥ 2 Really fun and polished game, great theme and execution. There's not really a reason not to hold attack and mash convert constantly though. Maybe adding more of an energy penalty for those abilities and make it more about timing your push or boosting the force of nearby units.
Apr 27 23:43:29 9h 41m Protolife ♥ 1 Amazing
Apr 28 14:03:24 14h 19m Globe Trot ♥ 3 Nice gameplay, one of the better sphere shooters in this comp
Apr 28 14:18:08 14m 44s liftoff ♥ 1 Nice, I love space trading games. Maybe you could add a nice landing bonus or something or sudden price surges where you have to rush to a specific planet.
Apr 29 14:58:44 24h 40m Rise of the Termites ♥ 1 Nice game, could do with a speed up button though.
Apr 29 15:10:43 11m 59s Daydreaming Island ♥ 1 Nice little point and click, nice atmosphere. Would have preferred a simple yes/no prompt though.
Apr 29 15:14:27 3m 44s It's a Small World, So Let's Crash It into Things ♥ 2 Nice game, not sure if your population would continue to grow after so many impacts ;) Also not sure how population can destroy stars. View scrolling could have been smoother.
Apr 29 15:50:38 36m 11s Conquery - Conquer The World! ♥ 3 Interesting concept but would have preferred keyboard movement. There's also no reason not to hold down space bar making it redundant.
Apr 29 15:54:42 4m 04s Saviour ♥ 1 Nice little shooter. I can see this being expanded with upgrades and turrets etc.
Apr 29 16:30:43 36m 01s Small Kingdoms ♥ 0 Nice clean graphics, interesting mechanics. Could be a simple but clever turn based game with a smarter AI.
Apr 30 14:02:26 21h 31m Small Planet (Ganymede) ♥ 1 Nice effort, keep it up. Maybe add some screenshots and stuff to this page.
Apr 30 14:05:04 2m 38s World Tapper ♥ 0 Interesting one touch mechanic
Apr 30 14:16:29 11m 25s The Epic Quest For The Mighty Croissant ♥ 2 Nice art style but the gameplay boils down to rushing towards the boss of each stage and mashing right click all the time, die and repeat. I can't avoid getting hit which might be something I missed.
Apr 30 14:18:56 2m 27s Newton's Cannon ♥ 3 I got some bullet issues where they would explode right after firing so only some of them made it towards the enemies. Nice theme and art and animations. I like how the bullet orbit the planet and how you can push the smoke particles. I have to agree there's not much point in using the jet pack. Maybe add flying enemies or enemies that attack you which you have to jump over.
Apr 30 14:28:59 10m 03s Starstruck Ducky ♥ 1 Interesting concept, I'll give it a longer go later... Okay so I've played it like 10 times now and it seems a bit random. I've never gotten on tour. Nice reflection of duck society. lol
Apr 30 20:40:46 6h 11m Shrinking Planet ♥ 1 Very fun, love the concept and theme. Nice video too. 👍
Apr 30 21:13:37 32m 51s Little Fortune Planet ♥ 3 Very nice game, high levels of polish. Dunno how to get the dolphin or volcano achievements though.
May 1 14:58:12 17h 44m Headroom ♥ 1 I watched the video and came here. Really impressive graphics. I found a bug where the key fell through the floor/carpet though and the collision are a bit funky.
May 1 15:15:13 17m 01s Carefulzilla ♥ 0 Fun game. The music was pretty annoying. I liked how if you kept walking past the boss your legs fall off the edge of the map and there's no body connected to them lol
May 1 15:26:38 11m 25s Hibernaculum ♥ 1 Very nice game, thanks for making it. Could have used a proof reader for some of the text and the snow flake was a bit fiddly to collect if you weren't exactly in the middle of the globe. Top ratings all round.
May 2 00:00:54 8h 34m RASHLANDER ♥ 0 Nice game, love the retro aesthetics. Rock hard like it says, got to stage 2.
May 2 09:04:32 9h 03m Island Guard ♥ 0 Nice little game, terrain destruction reminds me of worms but top down. Maybe you could add different enemies that fly and drop bombs in the middle of the island to make travelling across it a bit more tricky.
May 2 09:07:50 3m 18s Terraformit ♥ 1 Nice little game but I keep missing my score because I'm mashing fire all the time and skipping the game over screen. Would appreciate an auto-fire function or semi-auto like in star fox.
May 2 09:47:12 39m 22s STEEL GEAR CHAOS ♥ 1 I love me some TBS but I would have appreciated some predicted enemy movement icons. Also an indication of where the air strike will be before the move phase and a retry button to improve your rank.
May 2 10:07:36 20m 24s Tadeo Escapes The Dinosaur ♥ 1 Fun concept and theme. I found the controls to be awkward and sticky. I couldn't always perform a double jump and didn't get past the platform with the virus on it cos I kept falling into the stomach acid. The jump shake gave the game a weighty feel though.
May 2 10:12:13 4m 37s Interstellar Botanist ♥ 1 +1 for VR support. Nice gentle gardening simulator with the added excitement of suffocation!
May 2 10:38:42 26m 29s Terrartisan ♥ 2 Nice little puzzle game, had fun figuring out the interactions
May 2 10:53:32 14m 50s Little Wild Invasion ♥ 2 Very nice art and shaders. Really gives the impression that you are a small plant running from predators. Would be nice to turn the tables on your pursuers with even larger predators higher up the food chain.
May 2 10:57:54 4m 22s Planetary Assault Self Defense! ♥ 1 fun little space shooter
May 2 11:02:35 4m 41s Backyard Warriors ♥ 2 Nice graphics. Fun little back yard Lord of the Flies / Hunger Games simulator.
May 2 11:08:09 5m 34s World Jump ♥ 0 fun concept, interesting take on the theme
May 2 11:10:39 2m 30s Superbugs ♥ 4 Fun game, I appreciate that the logo is also a helpful hint on colour combinations :)
May 2 13:55:36 2h 44m A Small World Cup ♥ 2 This game is so much fun, like a mini rocket league. Interesting take on the theme as well. I kept playing till I got to match day 8 and then it stopped. I'll imagine I won a small cup. Played it again and the bug only occurs if you play as Brazil.
May 2 14:40:05 44m 29s Petri World ♥ 0 Interesting simulation. Maybe add more methods of interaction like introducing different organisms or antibiotics to see the different reactions.
May 2 14:43:38 3m 33s Antnator ♥ 1 Nice hand drawn look, very effective. Reminiscent of SNES games and 90s Saturday morning cartoons
May 2 16:00:35 1h 16m Super Snowman Spider Showdown Supreme ♥ 2 Really nice models and animation. I like the spider shadows on the globe, very ominous. It's a shame you didn't get all your ideas implemented in time.
May 2 16:17:42 17m 07s Llama's World ♥ 3 I really like those voxel graphics and animations. The music was good if a bit short. The goat sounds were pretty loud though.
May 3 00:28:09 8h 10m The Witless ♥ 0 Nice homage to the witness and scale portals. You captured the essence of those games while mixing things up. good job.
May 3 00:31:52 3m 43s Solitary Freedom ♥ 0 Very nice NES style graphics, the effects are very juicy giving it a bit of impact.
May 3 00:34:41 2m 49s Angry Worlds ♥ 1 The level design is very reminiscent of Megaman and that end boss design looks hilarious. Very well executed.
May 3 00:38:04 3m 23s Invaders of Yekithar ♥ 2 Reminds me of Wreck it Ralph like it was an actual arcade cabinet from the early 90s. Controls are a bit clunky but otherwise a solid entry.
May 3 00:41:41 3m 37s The Spoiled Prince ♥ 2 That is adorable, like an indie baby mario or bbc game. Mechanics are well implemented, level design is clever, I like how there a multiple routes based on how pro your movement skill is with the toss and double jump. Top scores for you.
May 3 00:42:52 1m 11s A small fungal genocide ♥ 1 There is actually a lot of content here but that audio.
May 3 00:52:27 9m 35s Lonely Cylinder ♥ 0 Hilarious description, I wont try to come up with a jokey comment. The graphics are clean and simple which I appreciate.
May 3 00:57:09 4m 42s Small World Politics (Board Game) ♥ 1 Interesting political take on the theme. The art on the map is clean and effective.
May 3 09:16:13 8h 19m Around The World in 80 Seconds ♥ 1 Nice background art, I managed to get to america on my best run but it felt like luck more than skill got me there. Maybe the different enemy types should have different but predictable movements.
May 3 09:19:10 2m 57s His own small World ♥ 2 Interesting take on the theme and mental health. A little bit on the nose perhaps.
May 3 09:35:01 15m 51s Slice of Life ♥ 4 A pizza masterpiece. I didn't get along with the rocket. My fav tactic is to spawn land mines in front of melee troops who then push the land mines into enemies. Both win and lose animations are hilarious, especially the man eating his whole arm... and then it was a double arm with another pizza!
May 3 09:36:48 1m 47s Headspace ♥ 1 Would have liked some screenshots or videos on the page. Interesting take on the theme.
May 3 09:50:50 14m 02s Microspace ♥ 2 Getting a strong Inner Space vibe with this one which is great. Love everything about it except the laser sound and over heat. Good stuff.
May 3 09:58:14 7m 24s Sunny World ♥ 1 Very nice music and atmosphere, very relaxed in the face of meteor and resource death. I could listen to that music all day long. Top marks all round.
May 3 10:14:55 16m 41s Space Raiders ♥ 3 Very juicy game, liked that the gun felt powerful and weighty. I would have preferred an ending rather than endless though. I got to night 5 on my best run, it doesn't seem to get any more difficult. The best tactic is to ignore the fire and trees and just craft bullets, then stand at one of the portals and fire constantly at the opposite direction until day time. Also the jump felt unsatisfying because of the amount of drag.
May 3 10:31:24 16m 29s Flovala ♥ 4 So cute, love those little white things with their tiny fangs. Didn't like turning into a black thing, was that because I ate too may of them?
May 3 11:28:15 56m 51s Aether Mine ♥ 1 I like this entry, the audio is by far the weakest part. Would have liked a speed up and sell button though.
May 3 12:56:45 1h 28m Planetary Defense Force ♥ 1 Nice tower defence, would have preferred a more top down perspective especially when positioning planets.
May 3 14:21:53 1h 25m Wake Up ! ♥ 1 Really nice visuals but the platforming was a pain due to the clunky, bouncy movement physics. I was also tossed around when switching worlds inside of another object. I powered through and got to the end. The character looks cute and the environment and art are top notch.
May 3 14:37:06 15m 13s Spacefish Love ♥ 0 Nice monster designs and customisation. There's a glint of a game there shame there's not more of a goal other than consume all the planets. Maybe if there were other lady monsters with different tastes to impress.
May 3 15:58:30 1h 21m TinyPlanets ♥ 1 I wanted to like this game but it kept crashing on me so I never managed to get off the first planet which is a shame cos I love these kinds of games. Also every few minutes the sadness on my planet would spike causing a downward spiral of under production which I could never get out of. Nice graphics and UI and calming music though.
May 4 00:17:08 8h 18m ⬛️ ♥ 2 HAH that's amazing. It's like the Super Hexagon of windows XD Top marks.
May 4 00:30:58 13m 50s D.A.D.S. (Destitute Agoraphobic Dad Simulator) ♥ 1 The writing and art is pretty good but there's not a lot to do really. I guess that's the life of a shut in.
May 4 10:36:07 10h 05m Clean the Dorm ♥ 1 Nice game and nice write up, good read. I hope your dorm isn't full of bugs in real life ;) Music was fun but got repetitive.
May 4 22:59:25 12h 23m Down the Rabbit Hole ♥ 4 Really nice game, love the gameboy graphics and the music. I'm not clever enough to finish it though.
May 5 13:28:08 14h 28m Abaddon ♥ 2 Good recreation of Devil Daggers but where's the giant centipede?
May 6 11:03:14 21h 35m Flerth ♥ 1 Nice, guess the flat earthers knew too much. Top score was 260. Near the end I started preemptively smashing ones that look a bit too fast lol
May 6 13:41:12 2h 37m Pip Sweep ♥ 0 That's amazing work for 3 days, got some major dev envy right now. Love the intro and polish and wobbly physics. Top marks all round. P.S. Does the witch statue do anything?
May 9 00:31:19 58h 50m The Life Amoebic ♥ 0 Cool game, I made an Amoeba game as well :)
May 12 11:22:50 82h 51m Jumpy Green ♥ 0 Fun simple mechanics
May 12 11:27:21 4m 31s The Last Haven ♥ 0 Nice graphics but the camera movement when turning was unnecessary, just the mouse offset would have been fine. Also for some reason the music only came out of my right speaker.
May 12 11:49:21 22m 00s Small World Sim ♥ 1 Interesting game, took me a few goes to get to a stable planet. After completing all the goals there's not much left to do. Filled up every slot with factories and choked out the last remaining humans. Would have been cool to have adjacent bonuses to make you think about placement more.
May 12 11:53:46 4m 25s PixelWorld ♥ 1 Very glowy but my character kept getting stuck on terrain and movement felt floaty. Could have done with smoother flow and fewer interruptions. Maybe keep the game going under the huge pop up texts.
May 13 10:27:14 22h 33m Battle Bugs ♥ 2 Really nice game. Also I love Plants Vs. Zombies! (the first one)
May 13 11:23:26 56m 12s Murder 38 - Episode One: A Small World ♥ 1 Fantastic game, very funny. voice over is great if a bit humbly.
May 14 14:56:13 27h 32m Lalao ♥ 1 Nice game and nice narration.
May 14 18:11:20 3h 15m Neuroso ♥ 2 Cool game, creepy and funny.
May 15 10:32:12 16h 20m Tiny Planet, Big Universe ♥ 1 Nice first game
May 15 11:05:41 33m 29s +1💰 (the game) ♥ 0 Fun clicker game, hopefully you'll add more layers to the post compo version
May 15 11:14:12 8m 31s Feather Fighter ♥ 1 I really like the art and audio and the little birds. I felt like the different weapon upgrades actually made the game harder though. The shotgun should do more damage and the machine gun should shoot faster than the regular pistol. All the animations and polish were great but I got stuck on the cubes a lot. Overall solid entry.
May 15 13:15:07 2h 00m Depth Gun ♥ 0 I came here from RPS, nice one :)
May 15 13:16:55 1m 48s Little Lands ♥ 2 I came here from RPS, game is so cool :)
May 17 09:08:34 43h 51m Bloody Nano Wars ♥ 1 Nice game, I like the simulation of a heart beat. Impressive for a compo entry.
May 17 09:20:42 12m 08s Pong of Gods ♥ 1 Nice spin on pong
May 17 09:33:52 13m 10s Yourselves ♥ 0 Nice graphics, I like how each character emerges and enters a portal
May 17 09:39:11 5m 19s Space Ship: Andromeda ♥ 1 Impressive amount of content for a game jam. Don't really see the theme used but good job on the story and mechanics.
May 18 12:08:28 26h 29m Survival Game ♥ 1 Good effort, keep at it and you'll be a pro in no time. I'd say the project was too ambitious for a game jam and something much smaller and more polished would have been better appreciated.
May 18 21:05:48 8h 57m The Whole truth about Nature Selection (16+) ♥ 1 *Spermthumbsup* Not sure why there's a delay to shooting. It does add a bit of challenge to aim where the shot will be when it fires.
May 19 15:33:17 18h 27m Lab 493 ♥ 1 Nice game! We made a game with a microscope too :) Your previous games all look awesome as well.
