| Aug 3 14:13:13 | Pipe Trek | ♥ 0 | I would have liked a way to mute the music as it got quite annoying after the first few seconds. I really like the LCARS look of the game. I think it would have been even better had you created the actual "pipes" to be in the same LCARS style. | |
| Aug 3 14:20:13 | 7m 00s | Spacy adventure | ♥ 1 | This is a nice simple game with a clear goal and minimal controls. It plays well and fits the theme nicely. It has a good amount of "juice" with some screen shake and particles but not too much. I alos thought the music also fit the game quite nicely as well. Jood job. |
| Aug 3 14:25:48 | 5m 35s | Ultimate Fusion | ♥ 3 | I think you should have made the little constuction icons in the bottom left cllickable to select what you want to build. I kept trying to click them to select what I wanted to build. |
| Aug 3 14:35:00 | 9m 12s | ROOP (Running Out Of Power) | ♥ 1 | Reminds me of asteriods but with the power-saving mechanic thrown in. I would like to see a bit more drag on the player ship i.e. I would also like the ship to slow down a bit after you let off the thrust. Some additional power-ups and different ship types would be nice to have too. Those things are, of course, very difficult to get in just 48 hours :) |
| Aug 3 14:45:56 | 10m 56s | Unplugged | ♥ 1 | I absolutely love the graphical style on this one and great innovation in using the heart, batteries, and blood to come up with a really cool game. Also when running on a laptop, having to actually unplug it is a neat addition. I still have it running as I type this comment and will likely have it up in the background as I review other games. Very nice! |
| Aug 3 16:22:08 | 1h 36m | Boaty McBoatface | ♥ 1 | VEry interesting boat/fishing management game. The controls are a bit quirky but once I figured them out I had some fun with it. This is one of those if given some more polish, I might find myself playing for a few hours. |
| Aug 3 21:42:45 | 5h 20m | Defend Home: Mars | ♥ 1 | Not bad for 48 hours. I wish there was some kind of feedback to let me know if I was hitting the ants. Otherwise, I think it is a great start at a full game. |
| Aug 3 21:46:59 | 4m 14s | daemon | ♥ 2 | I was unable to make it past the first little spinner thing. I think the starting level layout is a bit too difficult. |
| Aug 4 16:33:17 | 18h 46m | Lantern | ♥ 3 | I wish there was more to it than pointing the flashlight at ghosts. Maybe moving from room to room and trying to retrieve some objects. Having some different ghosts would be cool too. What you have here though is really great for a 72 hour game. The graphics and the sound effects compliment each other nicely and are both very well done. |
| Aug 4 16:38:01 | 4m 44s | Torch Boy | ♥ 1 | The game is quite short, and I wish there were more levels as it was quite fun while it lasted. I really like the way time slows down when you are charging. Having the key locked in a cage also increases the challenge as well. You could add a few more game mechanics, a bunch more levels, maybe even a boss or two, and have a cool little game from this. Very nice. |
| Aug 4 16:50:00 | 11m 59s | Low Power - Energy Management RTS | ♥ 0 | This was really fun. I played far longer than I'd planned. I did find it annoying that the cards in the lower right blocked my view of what was happening on that part of the screen. They should collapse down into an expandable tab or something so you can see the entire battle field. Otherwise, I enjoyed this a lot. The card-based building mechanic was really fun. |
| Aug 4 20:44:52 | 3h 54m | Trap in the dark | ♥ 1 | Some sounds would add to the atmosphere, but I did enjoy it as is. I finally stopped on level 33. |
| Aug 6 00:55:17 | 28h 10m | The Hall of the Sorcerer King | ♥ 2 | I like the way you presented breadcrumb graphics for the rooms, the health and mana bars, and how each room icon tells you which if any spell you cast there. I did finish it by the way and appreciated being able to click back and try different things. It reminds me of when I used to read the choose you own adventure books as a child and had used 2 or 3 of my fingers as bookmarks I have fond memories of those books and this brought that back. I've seen a few other text games like this in other LDs but none of this quality. |
| Aug 8 19:12:58 | 66h 17m | Gradient Descent | ♥ 0 | This is a strange and quite abstract game that has a lot of atmosphere. Even so, the world does feel a bit sparse, but 48 hours is not much time to spruce things up. I like the way you tell a story and the music was lovely. I made it to one of the endings and it was quite interesting. I really like the player stats you give at the end. Very cool stuff. |
| Aug 8 19:34:29 | 21m 31s | Breath | ♥ 1 | Wow very nice job on this one. The audio, music and graphics all mesh together wonderfully to create a great mood. Great quality stuff for only 72 hours |
| Aug 10 17:54:46 | 46h 20m | THIRST | ♥ 0 | Nice amount of polish for 72 hours. Having the player sort of layout his own dungeon with the cards is a nice idea. |
| Aug 11 14:28:17 | 20h 33m | Light Switch Crusader | ♥ 1 | This was quite hilarious. Probably because we were constantly told as kids to turn the lights off when you leave a room ... and now I do it as a father myself. The audio was great too. Excellent work. |
| Aug 11 14:36:22 | 8m 05s | Space Dog | ♥ 1 | Very fun and one of the best I've played yet. Loved the sounds and the idea! I played much longer than I intended. |
