Aug 6 19:20:39		Robocre:8 trials	♥ 0	Very fun game, engaging and with a good rithm. In the first couple of stages I felt it was a little too easy, but then the difficulty ramped up quite a bit. The number of different weapons and enemies and the sfx are great, even more considering it is a Compo entry; the only negative thing is that the various weapons (at least the ones you find in the first half of the game, which I played) have mainly different aestethics, while I expected to find different mechanics like bouncing or penetrating shots for example. Overall, a very solid entry. Nice done!
Aug 6 19:30:04	9m 25s	Think before you jump	♥ 1	Nice little game, I loved the graphics. The concept is pretty solid, probably with a little more work it can became a very good game!
Aug 6 19:44:16	14m 12s	Abstract Demon	♥ 1	Unfortunatly, on my 1920x1080 screen the game was unplayable because I was not able to see the first option of everything I choose. I found also the explanations of how to play very confusing, and the lack of visual feedback when clicking on something on the right part of the screen made me even more confused on what to do.
Aug 6 19:58:50	14m 34s	Orcs in Space	♥ 2	Nice game, balanced and very complete. The only little problem is that it gets a little frustatrating to control a few robots because you need to tell them both were to collect resources and where to drop them, unlike other strategy game; probably you couldn't do anything different given your mechanics, but still it feels a little odd.
Aug 6 20:03:07	4m 17s	Ancient Palace	♥ 0	Great little game, very original. It's a shame that you had little time and couldn't expand it a little bit. Still, thumbs up for the idea!
Aug 6 20:22:10	19m 03s	Robot Kernel PaniK	♥ 2	I had a little bit of problems to understand how to do things on the first game, but then I improved from game to game and actually played quite a few times (sadly loosing every time). It feels very complete and polished, maybe a little harsh for beginners but clearly it centered very well the idea of running out of power. Nice job!
Aug 6 20:38:43	16m 33s	V-Empire	♥ 2	Great idea! Also the game looks very good and feels really polished and complete. The only thing I'd say it has to be balanced out a little better, I slayed 94 people and then died because it became very hard to find enough blood to satisfy my thirst. Other that that, one of the best entries I've seen so far.
Aug 6 20:48:40	9m 57s	Zzap	♥ 1	Very nice puzzle game, I like how you worked on the theme. It also feels very good just to hover the map with the mouse, the transitions and animations and the UI in general are great.
Aug 6 21:00:52	12m 12s	Superbman	♥ 0	Hardly connected to the theme and very difficult, unfortunatly not in a positive way. The graphics of the man and his animations are very good and smooth, probably you should have worked similarly also on the red boxes of death.
Aug 6 21:10:45	9m 53s	Power the House	♥ 1	Nice little puzzle game, with a cool and clear core mechanic and an easily understandable UI. I would have liked to see a few more levels, but time is a big bastard here with everybody so it is ok like this.
Aug 6 21:32:35	21m 50s	Industria	♥ 1	Nice idea, but the game has to be balanced out better. It is really hard to survive the first minute because you need to build a few things very quickly and they burn down your saved power, but then its difficulty becames non existent and you just need to wait and see the game end by overpopulation.
Aug 6 21:46:40	14m 05s	Crigy	♥ 0	I'd like to point out just a couple of things: - far too many rooms (at least among the one I explored in my playthrough) have the same pack of four small enemies to defeat, and you have to fight them over and over each time you came back to the same room because you found a dead ending; - the shooting is veeeeeery slow, and I found myself pressing the mouse button and then running away (and thus shooting in the wrong directions) too many times Other than that, it is a fun game with very polished graphics and clear gameplay. A little bit on the hard side, but I think positively: it adds a lot to the "Running out of Power" feeling. Well done!
Aug 6 22:05:54	19m 14s	Electronic Supremacy	♥ 2	I am on Windows so I had to play the post jam version. The game is really good, a lit addictive like every management game should be, and balanced quite well (even if I personally have liked more a wave system with some time between attacks, not a giant 9-minute horde). I played a couple of times and unfortunately, at about 5 minutes to the end, 72 energy in store and +58 per second the game fully freezed and I had to shut down it.
Aug 6 22:18:35	12m 41s	Asolar	♥ 2	I have to admit that I love cellular automata, so this might bias my ratings :D The game is really fun to play, as it is just watching the city spreading in real time around you. Maybe a little bit of animations on tile type change could have helped in noticing the growth even more, and also I would have changed the controls from a WASD to a mouse based game (click to place bombs and avoid getting stuck in buildings). Other than this, it feels really really good, I will probably make all my teammates play it! Continue programming cellular automata man!!
Aug 7 22:09:59	23h 51m	Modular Destruction Labs	♥ 2	Fastastic and original game, I enjoyed a lot each of the levels. It is a bit harder to control the robot when you are dragging something but I guess it is inertia and physics :D
Aug 14 13:45:35	159h 35m	Zombie Power Station	♥ 1	The idea is interesting, and I like the graphics and SFX of the game. Jumping and shooting, though, does not feel to me hundred percent natural, as the player seems to have very low gravity and recoil seems a little to much for me. Other then that, really good and polished entry!
Aug 14 13:54:37	9m 02s	Cosmic Influx	♥ 0	Nice little concept, maybe you should have tried to expand it a bit.
Aug 14 14:07:53	13m 16s	Stranded In Space	♥ 1	It took me a long 7:26 minutes, due to not-that-intelligent planning :D The game is cool and very well balanced, as you need to plan the mix of buildings you want to have to produce a little bit of everything. I'd like to have a little bit more building space, though, and maybe the option to destroy and replace a building.
Aug 14 14:21:55	14m 02s	Neuropower	♥ 1	Very, very interesting game with an exceptional mood! At first is may seem a little unclear what to do or where to mov forward, but I thinks this just adds more to the atmosphere. Really a great entry!
Aug 14 14:53:24	31m 29s	Runner Out Of Power	♥ 0	Very fun and addictive game :D Unfortunately the last level was too much for me and I had to give up after 40 tries or so. It was also a little frustating to have to watch the fade between the level and the menu over and over again; after trying and trying again the same level it starts to feel soooo long.
Aug 14 15:01:24	8m 00s	Wreckage	♥ 0	Nice game, even if I had to restart it like 5 times before being able to survive more than 2 seconds :D Also, had some graphical glitches when running on fullscreen at 1920x1080, so I had to play in the tiny default window.
Aug 14 15:08:37	7m 13s	Mars Mystery	♥ 1	Very nice game with a great atmosphere! You did a really good job with the theme.
Aug 14 15:17:47	9m 10s	Dadoor	♥ 1	Great idea and great game, I've never seen something like this come out of a jam! It feels like a complete and polished PS1/PS2 game, I really love this style!
Aug 14 16:21:33	1h 03m	DefXagon	♥ 0	Nice game, after the little trouble to understand how to play correctly.
Aug 14 16:22:38	1m 05s	Power Defense	♥ 0	Very nice game, I love the graphics and animations! Probably a little too harsh to die on first touch, tough.
Aug 20 19:31:28	147h 08m	Power Synergy	♥ 0	Nice idea and very good implementation! I just think the game, as is, is a little too slow; maybe smaller maps with some terrain features (e.g. mountain tiles you can't walk on or just empty tile with no batteries on) may improve the gameplay a lot.
