Dec 5 20:06:20 Vacuum Platformer ♥ 1 Really nice effort! Great job putting it all together. I unfortunately find that the game mechanic is not that fun at the moment. Maybe it would be more interesting if a new mechanic was introduced complementing the current?
Dec 5 20:12:15 5m 55s Save the Plants ♥ 3 Really nice idea and well executed! Was a little too hard for me (after so little sleep developing our game), but still a ton of fun :)
Dec 5 20:18:24 6m 09s IDEA! ♥ 0 Nice try! However, I feel like the controls are not that great and the mechanics are not really doing it for me. Maybe it would be more interesting if a new mechanic was introduced?
Dec 6 21:23:42 25h 05m Greedy Merchants ♥ 2 Great game! Overall this is a really nice concept and a neat little prototype. The setting and atmosphere is also really compelling. The game is also nailing the theme, The core game mechanic of the game is pretty solid. Where the game needs some more work is in the design aspects. Some more tweaking of different properties in the game could have made it more balanced and therefore more enjoyable to play. The design part is hard, especially when it is a jam game so I understand that you didn't have time to polish. I feel like the UI could need some more work as well. However, overall a really good job!
Dec 6 21:33:29 9m 47s The more you baby... ♥ 1 Haha, a really funny idea. I made it to 6 babies, like Steven :P I think that if you would develop the idea and design further that it actually could have been a great experience. Now however, I feel like the mechanic is too repetitive. The hard party is actually to scroll the camera so that you can see all the babies. If you ask me it would be preferable to see all the babies all the time. It would also be interesting to play around with different mechanics to give the babies their needs, it gets to repetitive and boring to just click. Overall a funny idea that got potential, but that is lacking in design and polish.
Dec 6 21:54:14 20m 45s Just Another Day ♥ 2 Really think this is a great idea! Nice job! You have made some really clever and funny conversations. The graphics are also pretty nice. I would like to see even more variations of calls. Sometimes I get the same call as before (sometimes even twice in a row), which is not that great. I also think that a UI would be handy. You succeeded with the most important task of the jam, to design wise make an interesting game / prototype.
Dec 6 22:34:19 40m 05s Make Ludum Dare Great Again ♥ 4 This is a fun little idea. Graphics and game play wise really nicely executed. It is pretty hard to aim, would be nice to have a wider splash area. It would be really cool if there were different coffee shooters, like a latte bazzoka, mocha grenades, etc. The UI needs some more work. Overall a fun game that is following the theme.
Dec 8 18:58:54 44h 24m Where ma Friends at?! ♥ 0 Compelling art and visuals! The shader for the characters is really nice. Like others have said, the game is interpreting the theme really well. The simplicity of the game mechanic is great. However, I feel like there is something lacking game play wise. Anyways, great effort! :)
Dec 8 19:36:13 37m 19s The Will of the Wisps ♥ 3 Great atmosphere, mood and graphics! The animations also adds a lot to the experience. Simple and great game mechanics. Like the clever way of exposing the environment further the more fireflies you catch. The only minior minuses are that the controls seems a little off and that the rendering of the bush tiles where a little glitchy. Overall great job though!
Dec 9 09:34:15 13h 58m Orbits ♥ 1 What makes this entry great is the esthetics, mood and look. Great work there! Really enjoy the particle effects and the trail renderers. One tiny complaint (and maybe a personal opinion) is that the lighting and shadows doesn't fit the space setting. I think that you also utilize Unity's built in features well, for example the use of time and time scale. When it comes to game play it is nice and simple, and also fits well with the theme. However, I feel like it is lacking something. I would experiment and play around with ways that the player can affect the asteroids and their courses. Overall though, like everyone else here is saying, great entry and game! Would like to see this game be continued and released for touch devices.
Dec 9 09:52:04 17m 49s Pigeon ♥ 2 The main idea of this game is pretty neat and I feel that the mood of the game is what makes it good. It follows the theme quiet nicely. Where the game needs more polish and work is the game mechanics. The gameplay is pretty flat and not very interesting. Maybe it would become a more fun experience if you could interact with the other pigeons. For example it wouldn't it be pretty awesome if you could tackle or get tackled by douche bag pigeons? Overall I think you did a great job though, you should be proud that you finished a game during the jam. A big plus for actually styling the Unity WebGL site (that is something that I will look into myself)!
Dec 9 10:05:23 13m 19s Don't Sink ♥ 0 The art is what makes this game shine. Overall I think that this game got potential. The core mechanic could be really interesting, if you would add some twists to it. The UI is in the way when trying to spot the canon balls, so moving the UI to either the left or right side could improve the experience a lot. I also want some feedback on when I get hit by a canon ball. The canon ball seems to hit me even though it shouldn't, which gets very frustrating. All the things I mention are things that just need polish and more time, after that the game has the potential to be great. Really nice effort! PS. The boat is going REALLY fast :D
