| Aug 2 23:22:01 | Disaster On Nebula One | ♥ 6 | It plays great! The level design gradually gets tougher. The music choice was great. That intro cutscene was delicious. My only gripe was the camera always wanting to be in front of where you're heading which would throw off my jumping. | |
| Aug 2 23:39:04 | 17m 03s | Doki Doki Magica | ♥ 3 | Really nice art, but somewhat predictable. Could do with more variety of enemies and I didn't really feel I was running out of power as pickups were so frequent. Really adorable concept though, very visually pleasing :) |
| Aug 4 12:27:23 | 36h 48m | Into The Darkness | ♥ 1 | Great game but I would have to agree with Togis, the installer really put me off at first but overall this is a nice little game. Maybe adjust the rate that you run out of power, as it is currently very fast and the batteries do not seem to do much to negate this. I like the feel of the controls, very fluid and simple. Didn't have to think too much about what I was doing in that department so that's a plus. Very simple concept was nice and the graphics are very nicely done, I think these fit the theme well. |
| Aug 4 12:36:02 | 8m 39s | Jumpy Car | ♥ 0 | It's a nice start, I liked the wind up mechanism for the car being tied to a button mash. It's a nice simple concept but I feel it could be developed further. For example, the blue ramps seem like you would be able to speed into them gaining a huge jump if you are going fast enough, I was disappointed that they ended up slowing me down to a halt just by touching them. The physics are confusing there for me. I would also consider adding in hazards and/or power ups to help you maintain your speed. Rewarding players for overcoming the obstacles with something else than a distance record. The art style is basic, but it does the job. Though as an art nerd myself I would love to see some more fleshed out graphics. Mechanic wise the game is sound, apart from the blue ramps I mentioned earlier gameplay is seamless and easy to understand. It would be great as a mobile app if you developed this further. Good luck! |
| Aug 4 12:41:10 | 5m 08s | Pet power is running out! | ♥ 0 | Very confusing to end up in your google drive, if you are going to do that in future I recommend creating a standalone folder with just the game inside (if you cannot create a ZIP that is). I got very confused trying to locate said game and ended up in a folder full of your development files. Gameplay seems a bit broken and hard to figure out. Maybe work some more on the mechanics, while the art style is beautiful, it isn't everything. That being said the art is gorgeous and one of my favourite things about your game. |
| Aug 4 13:01:44 | 20m 34s | Fallen | ♥ 0 | Mood was great, I felt like I was up the creek without a paddle. So Kudos for you getting that atmosphere nailed - for me at least. Though it is very buggy, and very slow to run on my PC i did enjoy it, despite getting stuck in the walls a few times. Nice game with a solid concept just needs some bug fixing. |
| Aug 4 13:04:36 | 2m 52s | MoonBall | ♥ 1 | Very impressive first game, nice graphics and a really nice feel to the whole thing atmospherically. Definitley could use a restart button like others have said. Seems a bit too much based on luck also, so maybe implement something that involves our player knowledge instead of a guessing mechanic? Power loss is such that it can be punishing to go the wrong way. Maybe include some visual or audio cues to subtly hint where the player needs to go next. |
| Aug 4 15:49:10 | 2h 44m | Night Terrors | ♥ 1 | Hey I came over to see what game you had made :D Thank you for rating ours and giving some feedback! I love your game, you are right it is quite similar to what we did, yours has great music and I love the graphic style of the pixel art but feel it lacks some contrast of the PC on the background, minor nit pick. Mechanic wise I love how simple the controls are but some of the collision detection is iffy, i was getting stuck in some places especially doorways, or get nudged to a different place. I like that you included pick up batteries to extend your battery life, we should have incorporated something like that! Overall a very fun and quirky game, the music is very thematic and atmospheric. Will play again! |
