Dec 4 11:05:42 Haven ♥ 2 A very ambitious attempt for a project. I can see what you've tried to do but it's a bit too complicated to be able to play without looking around for everything. I feel it needs some guidance on how to play. However, the amount you have delivered is impressive and I like the meaningless text as it adds character to the game.
Dec 4 11:11:50 6m 08s Space+- ♥ 1 The graphics are great. Simple but they work together well. I'm not keen on the controls. It's a bit awkward to aim and walk in the same direction. I feel like games do better with dual stick controls for this genre.
Dec 4 12:23:16 1h 11m Post Mayhem ♥ 1 I love the graphics and I think the concept of the game works well. The audio is a bit grating however. I also think it could do with an indicator to show that you're currently adding tape.
Dec 4 12:27:22 4m 06s Christmas Present ♥ 1 This game is great! It's a very interesting concept i've not seen before. The only thing letting down the gameplay is a wobble on the game screens while you're moving but you can oversee that. It is a little lacking for the theme though. I'm guessing the idea is that the other santas get in the way when you have a lot but I feel like getting bigger only helps you.
Dec 4 12:36:20 8m 58s Triangle Command ♥ 1 For 8 hours of work, this is pretty awesome. Sadly the movement controls annoy me a little as it's floaty. Also you could just make sure you never have pellets and take the game really slowly for a huge score. I also had a bug where I died even though I didn't hit anything :(
Dec 4 12:43:40 7m 20s Bobby's awful idea ♥ 4 Graphics are awesome! I'm also impressed you got some AI in there too. The gameplay is a bit lacking though. I've also seen a bug where you don't get a speech bubble above your head sometimes? (Though I was playing a beta build apparently)
Dec 4 13:00:02 16m 22s I'm tired of all your stuff ♥ 1 Interesting idea! The voice acting, while not always very clear is quite a nice touch. Could've done with a bit more time to throw some more things but maybe I was just a bit slow!
Dec 4 13:04:07 4m 05s AntiBucket ♥ 1 Interesting idea. I didn't read the instructions so at first, I didn't realise I was aiming to dodge everything! Music is a bit repetitive but overall it's a solid compo entry.
Dec 4 14:20:33 1h 16m Holiday Parking Panic! ♥ 0 Awesome work for a compo entry!
Dec 4 14:23:01 2m 28s Cardhoard ♥ 2 Amazing game and concept! The controls feel very good too.
Dec 4 14:26:59 3m 58s ParanoWeed ♥ 0 I like the idea of playing the level twice but with changes. That's pretty cool! Not sure how it fits the theme though? Also I fell off the end of the map the first time I picked up the weed at the end which was a bit annoying.
Dec 4 14:30:34 3m 35s Office Escape ♥ 2 Once I got the hang of it it was pretty fun! Sadly it bugged out on me with a looping animation in the corridor. I do feel like it needed feedback though when you clicked something correctly. I found the best way to play was just to spam click.
Dec 4 14:32:49 2m 15s Smack`Em! ♥ 1 Pretty fun and follows the theme. Good job!
Dec 4 14:35:05 2m 16s Snake+ ♥ 2 Simple game but quite fun. I like the graphics!
Dec 4 14:55:48 20m 43s Bazooka Arms ♥ 2 Having a leaderboard is pretty cool. Not sure when the game ends though?
Dec 4 15:10:18 14m 30s Sheep without Shepherd ♥ 1 The game plays extremely well. I'm just sad I lost my sheep in the forest :(
Dec 4 15:13:27 3m 09s Crazy Snake ♥ 0 Yeah I was also instakilled once I hit the spikes. Not sure if that was intended! Fun game though.
Dec 4 15:22:41 9m 14s Prinsen Gulden ♥ 1 The wall jump feels really good! Would've been nice to have less slippy controls though...
Dec 4 21:35:57 6h 13m LootBox factory ♥ 0 Good attempt but there are some control issues when picking up the boxes and it was a little bit raw.
Dec 4 21:36:27 30s Slightly annoying traffic ♥ 1 I can see this game getting super frustrating the further you get. Perfect to match the theme!
Dec 5 13:23:13 15h 46m The More The Merrier! ♥ 1 A very innovative game! I liked the art too.
Dec 5 13:34:23 11m 10s Castle Diorama ♥ 2 I like the art!
Dec 5 13:36:00 1m 37s Horny Bunny ♥ 6 Funny game! I love the face of the rabbit in trouble too.
Dec 5 13:41:00 5m 00s Awfultown ♥ 2 Didn't really understand it and i'm not a fan of tutorials :/
Dec 5 13:44:39 3m 39s Larry Kroft and the Temple of Booze ♥ 1 I enjoyed this! Probably the best implementation of looting i've seen yet.
