| Apr 27 00:20:39 | Daily Routine: the smallest worlds are the ones we get stuck in | ♥ 2 | Really nice art, great game, had trouble finding the password at first :) I would have enjoyed watching a more concrete football game, but I guess that wasn't really the message ;) | |
| May 2 11:10:17 | 130h 49m | Enceladus | ♥ 1 | Nice concept ! The puzzle mechanics are a bit tricky to get and it takes many trials to understand how it works. The game overall is a bit hard, I managed to reach lvl4, but couldn't go further. I'm not sure I understand why I sometime got a gameOver when I moved my astronaut though. Still very innovative, good work ! |
| May 2 11:25:40 | 15m 23s | Until Tomorrow | ♥ 1 | Great game ! The writing is really good, I really enjoyed the humor in the dialogues. The mood is great, the audio really brings something to the game. Nice entry, good work ! |
| May 2 11:39:13 | 13m 33s | Planetary Assault Self Defense! | ♥ 1 | Nice entry ! The gameplay was fun and easy to understand I had an issue at first when I started the game without any weapons and couldn't do anything, maybe try to fix this behaviour ? I would also have liked to see the health of the ennemies so I could better plan my moves. Great game though, good work ! |
| May 2 11:48:33 | 9m 20s | Lottery: you judge them I judge you | ♥ 1 | Nice entry, a really good take on moral choices! Personaly, it went down to the teacher and me, and... well, the teacher's not a real person you know ? so I saved myself. I would have liked longer dialogues to characterize better the characters (It could be interesting having to save a man really useful for the society, but who is a jerk) Anyway, great game, good work ! |
| May 2 11:54:12 | 5m 39s | Hamster, RUN! | ♥ 1 | Nice little game ! There's an issue with the score who doesn't reset between each play I think ;) Also, I really missed the option to replay a level, I grow tired of having to do the game from start when I failed. The art is great, and god, this cat is really frightening. Great work ! |
| May 2 11:59:16 | 5m 04s | Recursive nightmare | ♥ 1 | Wow, that was so strange, yet quite enjoyable ! For some reasons, I really liked the art, it gave a real mood to the game. The humor was great ! Good job ! |
| May 3 11:10:44 | 23h 11m | It's A Small World And It's Gonna Get Smaller | ♥ 1 | Great game ! The art style was nice, abducting cows was particulary satisfying for some reasons x) I had some trouble at first understanding how to drop the abducted people in the silo, maybe a different input could have been useful. The beam physic was really great, and just moving around cars, people and cows was really fun I had the same issue than above, with a crash after dropping 70 guys, the army seemed to be really pissed off with me ;) well....png Anyway, good entry ! I had fun playing it :) |
| May 3 11:19:02 | 8m 18s | Wee Planet | ♥ 1 | Nice game ! I like how the rythm evolved through the game becoming really intense by the end. The lightning effect was really satisfying, maybe with some screenshake and more effects, the game can be very rewarding :) Good job ! |
| May 3 11:32:05 | 13m 03s | No Minor Task: Party of a Lifetime | ♥ 2 | fun game ! The humor was great, the *unfaints* really hit the nail x) I loved the work you put on sound design, it really serves the mood of the game! The overall difficulty was a bit too hard though, I didn't manage to reach the end, as I had sometime troubles understanding why I lost. Maybe a more clear feedback when the adults are highly suspecting you could do the thing? Anyway, great entry ! |
| May 3 11:43:50 | 11m 45s | Microspace | ♥ 2 | Really good game ! The mood was so great, really felt like rescuing whoever this person was ! The controls were a bit hard to get at first, couldn't get the mouse to work for some reason, but after a few retries it worked perfectly fine. Nice work ! |
| May 3 11:46:51 | 3m 01s | The Tiny Astronaut | ♥ 1 | Hey nice work ! Loved how you took a small scope and really exploited the concept ! The hitboxes could be a bit more permissive but it wasn't game breaker for me It's one of those little game I like to play when I have 10 minutes to kill, great work! |
| May 3 11:58:11 | 11m 20s | Star Traveller | ♥ 3 | A really nice experience ! I would have liked to play longer and have other puzzles as well ;) The mood was great, it really was relaxing! I personally found the texts not necessary and I would have loved too "experiment" more to understand the game mechanics (a bit like games like Samorost) Anyway, great work, I had fun ! |
| May 3 17:42:54 | 5h 44m | FREEDUMB! | ♥ 1 | Nice game, the humor is well executed I first though the @merica and #usa meant I had to nuke myself, causing the "america can't be nuked' issue ;) The clues were quite subtle sometimes, and I appreciated the Bonnie Tyler reference x) Well done ! |
| May 4 11:26:21 | 17h 43m | ⬛️ | ♥ 2 | Real nice concept, so simple yet so fun ! That's actually the first time I see a game using the movement of the window as a mechanic and I find it totally awesome! Great work! |
| May 4 11:45:08 | 18m 47s | 6-Sided Sojourn | ♥ 1 | I love this game, clearly one of my favorite game of the jam so far! The theme is totally there, the audio and graph are perfect and the gameplay is there (but couldn't hurt to be a bit more challenging) Different pattern attacks for the enemies could really do the trick (For some reasons it makes me think of crypt of the necrodancer for enemy patterns, maybe you could look into it ?) Anyway, really good work, well done! |
| May 4 12:04:27 | 19m 19s | Dungeon Hero(es) | ♥ 1 | The humor was great, it's a fun interpretation of the theme well done! The zelda/zelda-like parody was efficient and worked pretty well. There was some frustrating issue though, such as the money pieces who doesn't collide with the environment making them impossible to get ;) The art direction could sometimes be a bit confusing (I understood only at the end that the empty chest sprite was an empty chest) Still, a fun entry, nice work! |
| May 5 11:14:40 | 23h 10m | Landshift | ♥ 1 | Nice puzzle game, really made me think hard! For some reasons I kept clicking on the wrong arrow when wanting to add a puzzle piece, so I spawned on the other side of the line, maybe a smoother animation of the line sliding could make this kind of confusion less frequent Good work though! |
| May 5 11:32:31 | 17m 51s | Johi Farm | ♥ 1 | I loved this game! The mood was great, I had a great time! Like above, I had some hard time understanding how to push objects at first, but after that it was all good Pretty impressive you managed to do a boss in a LD entry! I had trouble figuring out how to beat it, but thanksfully, I had no gameOver against him :) Nice entry, well done ! |
| May 5 11:44:34 | 12m 03s | Carefulzilla | ♥ 0 | That's great! This is so fun, loved how the toe was hanging around. I tried to be careful, but couldn't stop myself to replay and... well destroying everything was fun too, so... The art worked perfectly for the theme, with goofyness and everything! Really impressive entry |
| May 5 12:01:04 | 16m 30s | What Remains. | ♥ 1 | Impressive entry! The managing mechanic was really well balanced The huge "how to play" page was a bit scary to be honest, but the game is actually pretty simple to play I would have like a "speed" button, like in some other game of the same kind, to speed up the game a bit Great work, well done! |
| May 7 22:14:17 | 58h 13m | Thieves, it's a small world | ♥ 1 | This made me think of the Carmen SanDiego games, was it you inspiration ? Anyway, I liked the humor, I would have liked to investigate a bit more instead of just going to the next city and hoping I'd find the thief. This has potential ! Nice work, keep it up ! |
| May 7 22:30:03 | 15m 46s | Rocket Roller Space Polo | ♥ 0 | Wow, such a great game! The concept is brilliant, and well executed. The game is not too easy or difficult, and provides a real challenge. As said above, the balancing skill/luck is perfect, and the level design brings a lot to the game. It's the kind of game I'd love to play on a coach with friends, I hope you'll release a post-jam version with multiplayer support ;) Impressive work really |
| May 7 22:42:06 | 12m 03s | Beware The Idiots | ♥ 1 | The sperm animation was really juicy, the humor great, the gameplay good, nice entry overall :) I had trouble understanding the purpose of the walls as it seems some of the sperms could get through it ? The bait was a really cool idea, I could kill a lot of sperm in not so many clicks thanks to it :) (have you thought of a combo multiplicator in that sort of case?) I liked the idea of understanding the mechanics in the menu by playing, it was a smart way to learn the game I must admit, I first thought the ovula was a button, with the words "replay" and "exit" on it, I couldn't understand what was going on x) Anyway, I reached 476 deaths, then I gave up. Nice game, well done! |
