| May 1 17:02:26 | Skylets | ♥ 5 | Pretty good game. It had some visually interesting planets, like the lava world. But sadly most world were a little generic, same mechanic and nothing really that distinguished them from the others. The collision was buggy at times but it never stopped me from playing. The objective was really simple, this is okay for a game jam but it didn't really feel like playing the game again. The music is nice. It had its funny moments with the dialog, even though the first time I didn't know there was a interact button. Maybe that button should have come up if you were near a character. In summary: the game has it flaws but I still enjoyed it. Well done! | |
| May 1 17:21:07 | 18m 41s | Brainstorm 38 | ♥ 2 | Nice game, I liked it. It was cool how you used theme and the humor was great. The text was a bit slow in the beginning, maybe you should let the player decide when he wants to see the next bit of text. The platforming was a bit generic. The gameplay in general wasn't very good, but then again it was only made in 72 hours. Still, I like it a lot. Well done! |
| May 1 20:16:53 | 2h 55m | Space Aliens Are Coming | ♥ 2 | I liked the game. I have read your post and it is nice that you finally have made a game again :). The game is a little repetitive. But otherwise great game. |
| May 1 20:36:44 | 19m 51s | Little Lands | ♥ 3 | I enjoyed this game. The graphics are really nice. But I didn't understand this game when I first played it. I didn't know what all building did. Tool tips would have been really nice. Something like when you hover over the mine "mine: mines stone". Doesn't have to be a big description but it makes the game allot more clear for the player. Furthermore, when the pirates came, I didn't know pirates would come, I got totally destroyed. I hadn't prepared any defenses. I think the biggest fault of this game is the communication. That said, after I got everything down I really enjoyed this game! Well done! |
| May 1 21:24:29 | 47m 45s | It's square to be a cube | ♥ 2 | When I first saw this game I thought it would be a really simple platformer. Mostly because of the art. But I gave it a try and I am happily surprised. The walking mechanic, the spinning, makes it already stand out. I like the world shape mechanic, I haven't seen anything like this. The game can sometimes feel unfair, mostly when you have to make a precise jump. The game is just not made for precision jumping and when it is put in the game it is quite frustrating. You probably already know this but the graphics and sounds are really lacking. But in the end I think fun gameplay matters more than good sound and art. I have to say, I really enjoyed this. Well done! |
| May 5 09:35:25 | 84h 10m | A giant called Frederick. | ♥ 3 | I like the idea of the game. You have to save these small planets from overpopulation. I liked that you took something that is a current problem and made a fun little game around it. Sadly, the execution could have been better. Like most people already said, the game was confusing in the beginning. I didn't understand what I was supposed to do. Only after I went online to the itch.io page I understood the game mechanics. A small tutorial would have gone a long way. As for the gameplay, it didn't feel 'right'. You were the very slow character and the shooting humans away mechanic was just annoying to use. In stead of flying to the mouse it flew in the way how your character was aligned. This just made it too hard to aim when you need to be quick. Furthermore, I didn't like the way the percentage system worked. I think you should have just used numbers. Like when you have 5 people on a planet and the planet can only host 10 people it would show that this planet hosts 5/10 people. Then when the planet has 11/10 people the would die. This way it is easier for the player to understand which planet he or she has to focus on. And even more importantly he or she understands how much people have to be thrown of the planet to make it save again. Lastly, sound would have made the game much better, but I think you already know this. I like the idea, but it had poor execution. Still, well done! |
| May 5 10:58:47 | 1h 23m | Den | ♥ 3 | This game looks amazing and the audio is also really good. Sadly, there is not much gameplay to be had. There wasn't really much to other than walking and that last puzzle. That last puzzle was really fun tho. If the game had more puzzles it would have been much better in my opinion. I think the controls could be improved. First of all you could have used the right mouse button for screaming and hitting and the left for moving. Instead of doing everything one button. Also, you could have given the option to control it with the keyboard. In summary, the gameplay is lacking but the art and the music superb. |
| May 5 11:19:05 | 20m 18s | Let's Be Happy in Our Small World | ♥ 5 | First of all I really like the art style and the music is nice. But it wasn't clear to me what I was supposed to do. I started the game at first and I tried different keys and the mouse but nothing happened. Then I started the game a second time to check if I had skipped a tutorial by accident but that wasn't the case either. After that I went online to find a video. I discovered I had to wait. This could have been easily avoided if there was just a small tutorial at the beginning saying what I should do. The mechanic wasn't hugely complicated, this doesn't have to be bad of course but the game didn't hold my attention for long. Still, I think this is a well made game with some small flaws. Well done! |
| May 9 11:59:56 | 96h 40m | Tub of War | ♥ 1 | Really fun game, maybe not the most innovative game but I still enjoyed allot! |
| May 9 12:16:35 | 16m 39s | Murder 38 - Episode One: A Small World | ♥ 3 | I like the game allot. It has a great mood, the audio is pretty good, it has some humor and I liked how you used the theme. Well done! |
