Dec 6 23:48:37 Infection ♥ 1 Nice and runs smooth, simple concept, but I like that you managed to put some audio in. I think it would be nice if the melee attack reached slightly farther to be able to hit enemies without them damaging you.
Dec 7 00:19:13 30m 36s Overrun ♥ 1 Great visuals, the slimes were cute. Found it kind of hard to find the exit, although i think the broken path was supposed to lead you (?) attacking felt unintuitive - enemies were never in front of you but you could only attack forwards. I like the way there was a bit of a story too
Dec 7 02:10:27 1h 51m Apokalipsa ♥ 0 I spent a lot of time playing this game, I really enjoyed exploring the impacts and building my way up through the city. The gameplay felt really strategic and the randomness was just the right amount. I also really liked the visual style, although it was simplistic it felt coordinated. Great game!
Dec 7 02:23:00 12m 33s Snowman - Wildfire Edition ♥ 1 Great game, I liked the fire mechanics, they were well implemented! Graphically was nice too, with the snow and melting ice. The background music suited the game well. Nice, well implemented game, Well done!
Dec 7 20:19:58 17h 56m LUGO ♥ 1 A really pretty looking game! The distance blur could be a bit OTT, but did look really cute and toy-like. The building system was also pretty good, and i liked the ability to make custom block sizes. Nicely polished for an LD game too! I did have a couple of issues. Firstly my car kept reversing backwards and I had to rebuild it. Second I thought it would be good to be able to delete single blocks without wiping everything, if there was a way, I couldn't find it. But overall, a nice little game, and an amazing achievement in such a short time!
Dec 7 20:32:29 12m 31s Dungeon Manager ♥ 0 It looks great and the music is good, and I do really want to give it a try, but I didn't seem to be able to accept any quests? I bought up an army and built some stuff but i just couldn't click on the green tick. Let me know if I'm doing something wrong or you fix it :)
Dec 7 21:09:14 36m 45s Save your gold ♥ 2 I enjoyed that! Managed to fill the greed meter up across the entire screen (at which point my ears were bleeding a little bit from the sound) But was really fun, and pretty graphics! I liked the music and sounds for the most part, as well as how it changed wwhen they got inside the castle. If you wanted to work on it further, it would be nice to improve the UI (Placing walls and atowers and repairing could be pretty slow) Nice Game!
Dec 9 00:20:50 27h 11m Politically Correct Hunting ♥ 1 That was really different, I enjoyed it! The final level was really difficult, and I agree with the others that having key letters on the blocks would make it nicer. If you're up for making an educational touch-typing style game, I think this would be awesome! As for the visuals, I think they were really well done, the environment was cute and bright, and the characters had nice animations. Some audio would have really finished it off. I enjoyed it, nicely done!
Dec 9 00:36:03 15m 13s Survival Drift ♥ 1 The game ran perfectly for me and looked really good.. Really good job on the presentation! Also it's nice to have a mobile game to shake things up a bit :P The car was mainly quite nice to control, and getting a good run in was really satisfying! The only issue was the lack of a reverse/reset button - it was often impossible to move and you just had to wait it out to have another go. All in all I enjoyed it though, nice entry! :)
Dec 9 01:14:52 38m 49s Ignorance is Bliss ♥ 2 A flash game? Wow, haven't played one of these in a while! This game has clearly been very well made, so great job! Visually fantastic, with the wireframe city, rotating tape reel, character art and even the different texts for different characters, it felt very polished! The audio was also fantastic, and I loved how the music changed with different messages. The writing was very good too, and I like how the different characters hd distinct personalities. All in all gave the game a great atmosphere! There is a little room for improvement though, it would be nice to be able to scroll back through conversations, especially when selecting tapes as that felt a bit clunky. Fantastic! (Only downside is I don't see how this links to the theme?)
Dec 9 01:25:00 10m 08s Just Make It Work ♥ 0 Haha, I this was a very fun little game! I know it is relatively simple, but the whole multitasking element is actually really fun, and gets challenging fast. Also the boss is hilarious! Nice little game!
Dec 9 01:41:25 16m 25s Space Freight ♥ 1 Good visuals and audio! The idea is good too. My main issue is that shooting the pirates is extremely difficult, I know that you're supposed to be a cargo ship, but having a rotating cannon or something would be really useful. Nice game though, good job!
Dec 9 12:40:35 10h 59m The Provocateur ♥ 1 I really enjoyed it, a good entry! Took me about 4 tries to complete it, and it was pretty satisfying when I did, building up a hoard was fun. Graphics were simple but good, Audio was alright, gameplay was really fun! Only issue i had was that people would tend to cling to you and it could be quite difficult to send them away. I think i would prefer it if i could use the mouse to select and command people, and move with the keyboard
Dec 9 18:05:40 5h 25m Runaway Magic ♥ 1 Nice game! I know you didn't make the art assets but it is still visually well put together! The script was pretty funny actually, and I enjoyed playing though. Could probably have done with a run through a spell checker as there were loads of spelling mistakes, but obviously not the end of the world. It was nice to have (what appeared to be) a branching story too. Good game!
Dec 10 02:15:20 8h 09m Project MADNESS ♥ 1 Well made game! I like the art a lot, and the concept is good. The game did get a bit grindey towards the end, but it was short enough to still be enjoyable. I did think that certain things were time-constrained, like you could only bring the dog out when it was sunny. Maybe this could be built upon to make the game more challenging? Anyway, overall it was well put together, and a good aceivement!
Dec 10 19:09:43 16h 54m Bat Dose ♥ 1 That music was so soothing, and it was a really relaxing, calming game. I remember I used to play a game similar to this when I was a kid (except it was with fish), so got the nostalgia firing :P I liked the controls were simple and precise, and the graphics (although simple) were well done and suited the atmosphere of the game. Nicely done!
Dec 11 00:24:19 5h 14m EPIC Racing ♥ 1 That was really fun and I had to play it through! It took me waaay too long to realise what was going on and my ears hate you. For me, it was just the right length, and I was laughing my way through a lot of it. Controls were really tight too, so good job. Only issue i had was that the music seemed to cut out completely when I hit 13 disks... was that intentional? I was playing the web version in chrome. Good game!
Dec 11 18:59:31 18h 35m Games: Behind The Scenes ♥ 1 Impressive, there is a pretty huge amount of content in here considering the time limit! I like your take on the theme! It did take me a bit of time to get the hang of what I was doing, but I enjoyed seeing all of the different areas you designed! One area for improvement would be the speed of the game, it takes a long time to get between areas which I feel slows things down a lot, if you could somehow take away the door transitions I think it would be a lot less grindy. But of course there were time limits to the competition! Good entry!
Dec 15 21:45:15 98h 45m Antibody ♥ 1 Simple concept, but well executed. I liked the visuals, and liked how you went for a theme and stuck to it. I think some indication of what level you are on and the direction of the nearest spere would be good QoL enhancements, sometimes it was a bit frustrating, especially when you are trying to balance each level. Good Entry!
Dec 16 00:12:45 2h 27m Dipsomaniac ♥ 3 That was incredible, probably the best game I have played so far, so great effort! This was actually a great game in its own right, even if it wasn't for the fact it was made in 72 hours. The art was beautiful, and the 'drunk' visual effects were awesome. The music was very well done too, and suited the mood. The puking noise was disgusting. The script was actually really funny and I was always really looking forward to the next bar. The core gameplay wasn't particularly challenging, and i thought it actually got easier as the game went on, but it is well worth playing just for the story! Excellent game!
