| Aug 1 00:00:51 | Shadow Crawl | ♥ 1 | I like the mood you set up there, both the music and the graphics work well in that sense, but I feel like the experience could benefit from a better tutorial/explanation. For example I'm still not sure how do I gain or lose sanity. Anyways, nice job. | |
| Aug 1 00:23:24 | 22m 33s | Yet Another Exhausted Day | ♥ 1 | The movement is just hilarious. After that first impression I got the feeling it was a bit too easy. I definitely changed my mind at the 90° curve level. I appreciated the change of perspective in the flying cabinet level, it added some variation. Nice ending too. |
| Aug 1 00:37:33 | 14m 09s | T.A.G. Reborn | ♥ 3 | This is a nice entry, you have a great tutorial and a good amount of variation in the traps. The only thing I feel like mentioning is the fact that I found the controls to be a little clunky, like not entirely responsive (for example sometimes when I tried to jump while going down a slope it either ignored it or jumped lower than usual). Good job anyway. |
| Aug 1 07:55:30 | 7h 17m | Discharge | ♥ 1 | Simple and effective, I like it. I noticed that sometimes it didn't shoot where I was aiming, it made me miss several times. I don't know if that was intended, just reporting it in case it wasn't. |
| Aug 1 20:08:43 | 12h 13m | Wind, Sun and Power | ♥ 0 | Beautiful graphics, I like the sunlight moving around. I don't know if it's the absence of music or the slow pacing or the (apparent) absence of penalty for doing nothing, but I didn't feel any pressure to focus on "playing well". |
| Aug 1 20:24:33 | 15m 50s | THE RISING OF THE MACHINES | ♥ 0 | This was really nice, i liked the narrator and the camera shake added a lot of punch to the hits. I liked that you put a boss fight, otherwise it would have been a bit monotonous. I had fun with this, good job. |
| Aug 1 20:33:33 | 9m 00s | Breath | ♥ 1 | The mood here is amazing. It perfectly delivers the feeling it's supposed to. |
| Aug 1 21:02:44 | 29m 11s | The Final Boss: Running Out of Powers | ♥ 1 | Really nice, this was one use of the theme that I was waiting to see, and you did it quite well. I didn't manage to kill the boss after 3 tries but I think that with a few more tries it could be done. Still, pretty difficult. Maybe edit the description of the game because I didn't check the comments until after I played and found out I could dash only after I lost that power :D |
| Aug 1 21:18:45 | 16m 01s | Bulbino's Quest! | ♥ 1 | Really well done, and quite hard. I love bulbino! |
| Aug 1 21:28:25 | 9m 40s | Temple of Illumination | ♥ 2 | Really nice platformer, great level design. The only complaint I can think of is that maybe the theme is a bit of a stretch |
| Aug 1 21:40:30 | 12m 05s | Little Light | ♥ 0 | Beautiful graphics, and well done platformer. My biggest complaint is that I couldn't play it fullscreen. I had a light background so my eyes struggled a bit to see in the dark. |
| Aug 2 11:27:15 | 13h 46m | Mayor on a Roll | ♥ 2 | This was really fun to play. I loved the intro, and the music and the graphics worked very well together. Good job! |
| Aug 2 13:17:24 | 1h 50m | Shekateka | ♥ 1 | Dang this is good! I got nothing to complain about. It hits all the sweet spots this kind of game is supposed to hit. Great job! |
| Aug 2 13:49:57 | 32m 33s | Mountaintop Groovy Robot Laser Battle | ♥ 0 | Awesome graphics, animations and music. One problem though: if I keep the attack/dodge/block/charge button pressed, it does the corresponding action at every beat. Since I think it would be too hard otherwise (I died quite a lot as it is), it's not a great problem, but maybe for a rythm game you should reward players who can keep up with the rythm (but in that case, even though the music is really awesome, it might be better to use something with a slightly more heavy beat). Anyways, this is great nonetheless, so good job! |
| Aug 2 14:24:40 | 34m 43s | Gradient Descent | ♥ 0 | Amazing. |
| Aug 2 16:21:28 | 1h 56m | Mad Trax | ♥ 2 | Gorgeous graphics and music. This was really beautiful and well made. I just felt maybe a bit too constrained by the energy consumption and it left me with little to no choice. But maybe that's just me, in tower defense I usually like to upgrade stuff and have many choices. Great job anyway! |
| Aug 2 16:37:54 | 16m 26s | Night Driver | ♥ 2 | Amazing graphics, really good audio and physics (although I'm not really a good judge on that since I never play racing games). Everything is well done, the only drawback is that I couldn't feel the theme here. Great job anyway! |
| Aug 2 19:54:08 | 3h 16m | Ministry of Synthesis | ♥ 1 | As a former electronic student, this is gold. Extremely difficult, and sometimes I had to go by trial and error, but still it's very well done and the idea is really good. A minor complaint is on the sound of the waves, as it is more often than not just noise, it can be a bit annoying, especially when I'm analyzing the waves to understand what's missing. Oh and the theme is basically just in the description, rather than the game itself but having seen the quality of the work I'm still glad you did it like this. I didn't manage to finish it but I'm pretty sure I'll keep it around to try and finish it some time later. Great job! |
| Aug 4 10:01:07 | 38h 06m | Displaceable source | ♥ 0 | Amazing work as always! Also really hard, I managed to die 40 times in 47:41 and I think probably half of them were caused by the boss (that second stage kept destroying me before I could land a hit and it took me a while to figure out how to deal with it). Thank you for your entry. This is a really good game, and not only in a game jam context. Keep making games! |
| Aug 4 10:35:02 | 33m 55s | Day and Night - 2D Game (mac/windows) | ♥ 1 | Nice game. Maybe you should consider enabling fullscreen since the text at the beginning is quite small. Oh and I think this would work quite well with a touchscreen. For your first ludum dare this is a pretty strong entry, good job! PS: I took a look at your portfolio and you misspelled the link |
| Aug 4 10:47:46 | 12m 44s | Journey in the Dark | ♥ 2 | Solid entry. I like the minimal graphics, and the sounds coupled with the darkness create a nice isolation feel. The use of the theme is basically the same as in our entry so I can only appreciate it :P Good job! |
| Aug 4 11:08:38 | 20m 52s | CHAINED | ♥ 1 | This is really interesting, very nice atmosphere. I think you perfectly delivered the chained feel. It was quite hard since the harmful enemies had colors very similar to the other ones, and in the end I couldn't break free but I enjoyed it nonetheless. |
| Aug 4 11:30:15 | 21m 37s | BATTERYMAN RECHARGES THE WORLD! | ♥ 2 | Great job guys, this is well done and fun to play! |
| Aug 4 13:52:13 | 2h 21m | daemon | ♥ 1 | I just tried the updated version and encountered a bug: the wall jump fires automatically if you hit a wall while keeping C pressed from your first jump. Furthermore it is possible to jump through platforms. This led me to jump on top of the roof and reaching the end by just going right and then falling down. |
| Aug 4 23:54:03 | 10h 01m | Thermal Power Plant K-13 | ♥ 2 | Beautiful graphics and apparently some nice mechanics but you really need to add a small tutorial, at least in the description because I didn't understand what half of the symbols mean or what I was supposed to do (maybe it's just me). I think that if it was a bit more clear it could be a great game (at least it looks like it from the large amount of details you put in) |
| Aug 5 00:12:46 | 18m 43s | Wayside : A world awaits you | ♥ 1 | A part from the weird physics of the jump (the drag is a bit too high imho) the game is really good. Nice graphics, nice music, nice controls and a pretty good level design. Good job! |
| Aug 5 09:08:53 | 8h 56m | Floppyboy | ♥ 1 | Really nice entry. Good visuals, great music and funny dialogs. Great job! |
| Aug 7 09:20:59 | 48h 12m | Spincharge | ♥ 0 | Nice game, it reminded me a bit of the beyblade game I used to play years ago. Very cool textures on those spinning tops, but if you worked also on the aesthetics of the environment it would have been a bit more appealing. Sometimes the game called a draw even if I still had some energy left. Other than that it's a nice entry. Good job! |
| Aug 7 09:51:25 | 30m 26s | Nex Machinan | ♥ 1 | Well done, nice graphics and sound, gameplay is smooth. It works really well, good job! |
| Aug 7 15:31:38 | 5h 40m | Durst | ♥ 1 | Nice game. I like the graphics, the sound and the final "cutscene" (although I would have liked to see one at the beginning too). One thing about the story and the mechanics is that if the character is dying from a disease, I feel like it doesn't make much sense that he heals himself after every level. I get that if you make only a global health bar you risk that dying is a bit too unforgiving if you force the player to start over, but it would be more connected to the story. That's just my thought on the story and theme, since gameplay-wise your solution is probably better. Good job! |
| Aug 9 10:57:34 | 43h 25m | Battery Battle | ♥ 1 | Nice game, there's nothing particularly innovative in terms of gameplay but it is well done. Good job. |
| Aug 9 11:15:27 | 17m 53s | GREED | ♥ 1 | I played only the jam version and I liked the idea and graphic style. The fact that the movement is quite fast makes it a bit weird that there's no animation for the player movement or jump. Good job anyway |
| Aug 9 11:28:23 | 12m 56s | Roboy Awakening | ♥ 1 | This is a gem! Really nice job on everything, from music to graphics to gameplay to story. I really liked the narrative and the ending. Really a great entry! |
| Aug 15 17:42:27 | 150h 14m | Plagued Station | ♥ 1 | Amazing game! A brilliant idea and an extremely polished execution. I have no suggestion on how to improve this apart from the missing "down to interact" tip at the beginning. I love how you tackled the double jump mechanics. Great job!! |
