Aug 1 15:19:21 Geocentric Survival ♥ 1 Fun to play! Took a little time to get the hang of it but I couldn't quit until I made it more than 10 days. :-) Cool that all the graphics are procedural. Btw, it's possible to cheat by just moving the mouse in tight circles around the sun really fast. Makes the days fly by.
Aug 1 15:27:23 8m 02s Pathjumper ♥ 1 Pretty cool concept (I love spaceship games like this). Controls were a little difficult though and I had no idea what the fuel scoop system was.
Aug 1 16:11:58 44m 35s The Last ♥ 0 Creepy, moody. Nice atmosphere. Crawling around a cave bleeding to death is dark. Nice job!
Aug 1 16:14:17 2m 19s TrappedWithAI9000 ♥ 0 @werlar, the linux version fails to run with message "There is no data folder" in the console.
Aug 1 19:36:02 3h 21m Saturnalia ♥ 0 Very pretty. I think you've got the core of an interesting puzzle game here.
Aug 1 19:41:51 5m 49s Ludum Dare 39 - Untitled Fishing Game ♥ 0 Nice job. Adding a refueling mechanic in addition to fishing would make this much more interesting.
Aug 1 19:50:32 8m 41s Lightbulb ♥ 0 Interesting concept but wasn't my cup of tea.
Aug 1 19:53:19 2m 47s ESCAPE DRIVE ♥ 0 Nice job. Like the cyberpunk/miami vice graphics. Looks and sounds nice. Didn't really feel like a car though.
Aug 1 19:59:54 6m 35s Owld ♥ 2 Well done! I like the idea. I didn't understand how to heal the owl though. He always seemed to run out of energy. I really liked the graphical transition from outside to inside.
Aug 1 20:04:49 4m 55s The Stonemont Chronicles ♥ 1 Good job! Would love to see more animation on the map.
Aug 1 20:08:18 3m 29s Power Ring Facility ♥ 0 Pretty cool concept. Liked the art style.
Aug 2 18:11:49 22h 03m Unadexus ♥ 2 Very ambitious, lots of systems here. Something this complex would definitely benefit from an in-game tutorial where the difficulty ramps up gradually.
Aug 2 18:43:41 31m 52s Moon is the limit ♥ 1 Fun game. I enjoyed playing it. Who is dropping all of these parachutes of death is what I want to know?! 😄 Maybe cliffs or mountains would make more sense. Took me a while to realize there was a "Shop" button. I'd make that a lot more obvious. The camera needs some work too. The ship would seem to teleport when you go too far to one side causing crashes. I made it to the top but never got a satisfying moon landing. I wanted to buy a "increase turn rate" upgrade for the outer space portion of the game. But overall, very nice!
Aug 2 18:49:44 6m 03s Depths of Mars ♥ 1 Well done. It was odd that I'd get "game over" at seemingly random times. Maybe I was just not seeing something.
Aug 2 19:09:53 20m 09s Blocks of Power ♥ 1 Very cool idea and well executed. I was going to do something like this if the theme had turned out to be "moving fortress".
Aug 3 04:52:11 9h 42m Fukushima Robot ♥ 1 Congrats! You got a lot accomplished in just 48 hours. I couldn't rescue Timmy but that's my own fault.
Aug 3 04:56:18 4m 07s Robo Power ♥ 0 Really good. The built-in loop on the program execution was a nice added twist.
Aug 3 10:54:07 5h 57m Cyclades Travelling Sailor ♥ 2 Nice work. I like what you did with Blender to make the sprite sheets.
Aug 3 11:02:37 8m 30s Running out of steam ♥ 1 I really liked this! It was fun. Jumping the steam engine was a surprise that made me laugh.
Aug 3 11:10:12 7m 35s Gradient Descent ♥ 0 Nice game but controls were awkward. I can see this working on a phone or tablet much better.
Aug 3 11:17:53 7m 41s The Defective One ♥ 1 Good job! Nice graphics and audio. Very difficult.
Aug 3 11:21:56 4m 03s Clockwork Inc. ♥ 0 5 for humor. Love the shop. Not my style but I think this could be popular.
Aug 3 13:09:16 1h 47m Doubt & Anger : a journey in space ♥ 0 Love the art style.
Aug 3 13:15:42 6m 26s THIRST ♥ 2 Very cute game. Fun too. Surprisingly interesting with the dungeon building mechanic. Good job!
Aug 3 13:20:05 4m 23s Last Job ♥ 2 Good sense of humor and the goblin sounds made me laugh.
Aug 3 14:46:53 1h 26m BRAINZ ARE POWER ♥ 1 Cool idea, needs a little balancing with respect to speed and multiple zombies. One thing that was unintuitive to me was that you were in control of all of the zombies but the game seemed to end if your "main" zombie died. Fun though! Played it several times.
Aug 3 14:58:55 12m 02s M. O. P. S. ♥ 2 Very nicely done. Took a few tries to get the hang of it. I think improving the building descriptions and maybe adding a short tutorial would go a long way.
Aug 3 15:34:49 35m 54s PRAY FOR TESLA ♥ 1 Love love love the graphics. Very stylish and cool. Some awesome pew pew sounds would be nice. At first I thought this would be a standard tower defense but I really love the unique buildings and the energy mechanic for charging them. Awesome job.
Aug 3 15:49:13 14m 24s Last Bot Standing: Game of the Year Edition ♥ 1 Pretty tough but I finally won! I thought it was a sneaking game at first but it turned into just a straight up game of tag. :-)
Aug 3 18:02:05 2h 12m Fade ♥ 0 Very compelling and sad story, nice art and music!
Aug 3 19:02:46 1h 00m Icarus Launch ♥ 0 Nice job. I think a slightly more pulled out view or a smaller ship would work better for me. I found this through itch.io. You should add a link to this page on your game page.
Aug 3 20:43:10 1h 40m AstroMouse ♥ 1 Very cool... simple mechanics but lots to do. Fun game!
Aug 4 16:57:16 20h 14m Breaker Breaker! ♥ 2 Very difficult! Really nice graphics and sound.
Aug 5 17:04:34 24h 07m Azrellian Asteroid Field ♥ 0 Fun game! Really liked the sounds.
Aug 5 18:28:53 1h 24m Spacy adventure ♥ 1 Really excellent. I'm impressed with what you were able to accomplish with Pico8. Presentation, controls, feedback, audio... it's all great! It's hard to imagine a better executed concept in the compo. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Aug 6 03:37:19 9h 08m Character Building ♥ 2 Dude. Call me if you need someone to talk to. 😄 You've done a lot of solid writing for this. I "enjoyed" it and the music was nice too.
Aug 8 02:43:56 47h 06m Rocket Rescue ♥ 0 Jetpacks are fun (despite problems already pointed out). Nice entry.
Aug 8 02:49:14 5m 18s Blasphemy! ♥ 1 Nice graphics and sound. Very cool what you can achieve with pico8. Too difficult for me though.
Aug 9 18:46:14 39h 57m Sabotage ♥ 1 Wanted to try this, it looks cool, but the HTML version just comes up with a black screen.
Aug 9 18:51:40 5m 26s Space Power Defender ♥ 2 Nice job! Controls are much better in the post-jam version. I think it'd be nice if the orbs were less generic... like it was a space station with people inside or something.
Aug 9 19:00:47 9m 07s PLASMAGUN! ♥ 1 Liked the sound effects and dialog sounds... Controls were a bit weird... not sure the gamepad controls were even working correctly on the HTML version. Got through the first level just by running into everything! :-)
Aug 9 19:05:02 4m 15s Thermal Power Plant K-13 ♥ 0 Looks and sounds great. No idea how to do anything.
Aug 9 19:09:26 4m 24s Supernode ♥ 0 Really nice. Relaxing. The sound effects add a lot and fit perfectly with the action.
Aug 10 14:19:07 19h 09m The Visible City ♥ 0 Linux build works! Map effect was really cool. Music was a good choice. I think this was an original take on the theme. Game got pretty difficult as time went on. Might be good to allow the player to buy additional police and tech units to keep up with the revolutionaries. It'd become more like a tower defense style game.
Aug 10 14:28:21 9m 14s Neuropower ♥ 2 Didn't know what I was doing but I did it for a while... something compelling about this concept and the feedback from moving and expanding neurons.
Aug 10 14:39:28 11m 07s StarAway ♥ 1 The talking shark is pretty funny. His speech sounds made me laugh. The graphics are nice but it's kind of an odd mixture of pixel art and 3D almost vector style art. I think the game would look better if you picked one style or the other.
Aug 10 14:44:01 4m 33s Extincti ♥ 2 Fun game and the music was a good fit. Dropping disasters was pretty satisfying.
Aug 10 15:01:27 17m 26s Robot Guy ♥ 0 Good concept, good art. Needs more explanation about what is going on and what you're supposed to do. Things happened a little fast for me to manage all three lanes.
Aug 10 23:33:25 8h 31m Battery Penetrates ♥ 0 Interesting idea but way too hard. Not sure what the point of switching the controls is every round unless it's supposed to be some kind of typing game?
Aug 17 21:21:34 165h 48m Lantern ♥ 1 Great. Gave me the creeps... I had to stop playing!
