Dec 4 12:38:51 Robot Santa ♥ 1 This is pretty fun. I really like the use of the theme, the more presents the kids got the badder they became. I would say it's pretty hard though as you don't get too much chance to react to a present falling. If the field of view was a little bigger I might have more of an impact. Probably just my old fingers though ;) Another thing I might add is a timer or something to end the game in failure if you don't destroy enough quickly etc. Just some thoughts. Great game! See you next LD :)
Dec 4 12:46:12 7m 21s Watch Out Your Head ♥ 1 Hahahah that explosion sound is hilarious. I really love that you've flipped the convention of collecting coins to avoiding coins! Of course the first round I played (even though I read the instructions) I collected the coins and then exploded my face on that corner. Years of gaming has given me an instinct for collecting coins that I'm now going to question on every new odyssey I explore ;) Great work! See you next jam.
Dec 4 12:51:42 5m 30s Smartphone Nightmare ♥ 0 Really nice looking game, particularly that drag bounceback. I really like the concept too of having to get rid of stuff while life admin's on your tail. I couldn't quite figure out how to throw the apps away after they'd installed.
Dec 4 13:01:54 10m 12s Laws Of Attraction ♥ 2 Really beautiful looking game. The glow and gate charge effects are really well done and you have chosen colours well. I think a small improvement would just be a level counter so I know how far i've gotten. Great stuff though :) See you next jam!
Dec 4 13:12:54 11m 00s Stressumo ♥ 2 Great first go programming this. This looks super good for a first run! Really like the concept of a sumo ring and bashing your opponents out of it. You are right that it's thin on the theme but I think a way to look at it is this: the theme may help bring someone without an idea some inspiration, those with an idea already might just feel constrained by it. In other words, use the theme if it works for you, if it doesn't work for you then dump it, it's trash :) Great job! See you at the next jam :)
Dec 4 13:30:57 18m 03s Shooey!!! ♥ 0 Hahah, I'd not heard of this game but will definitely bring it up when I next speak to my friends from down under. My xbox control seemed to work fine but I didn't get the keyboard to remove the images behind. Nice pixel art and animation. See you next jam :)
Dec 4 13:44:18 13m 21s Cosmiring ♥ 1 Nice job, I'm impressed with the size of the level for the amount of time available. I really liked that you saw all the traps in the early game before knowing that they are not just bits of decoration in the background. I really liked the mood that the audio affords.
Dec 4 14:00:22 16m 04s D.U.S.T ♥ 0 Fun game! I really like the ship models and the music and you've used the theme well. A slight improvement I'd make is to increase the resolution on the UI a bit. Great work, see you next jam :) And feel better soon!
Dec 4 14:02:29 2m 07s Waste Of Time ♥ 1 Hahah this is great! A lovely minimal entry. Sorry your first game didn't work out, keep at it though :) See you next jam.
Dec 4 14:10:34 8m 05s OVERWHELM ♥ 1 This is stunning! The art is soo good and the colours you've chosen are awesome. Great design concept too. I found some of the platforming quite tough but that's really just answered by a bit of git gud so that's not a problem. I loved the instructions being part of the background and I loved the way the camera held on them and near doors. The camera is my only mini critisism in that sometimes, I think it was when I was near an exit, it would move away from the direction I was trying to go as I think it expected me to want to go towards the exit. I'm not sure I've described that too well and I think it's less important than how good the camera feels in general in the game. Great work overall! Look forward to seeing you in the next jam!
Dec 4 14:38:52 28m 18s Duplicating Aliens ♥ 1 Really great idea and quite a tricky one too.
Dec 4 14:43:42 4m 50s I HAVE MORE ♥ 1 HAHAHAH I LOVE this! Really like all the references and I totally get what you've been going through there with the ideas meta game. This is brilliant. Only improvements would be a little bit of UI and perhaps some sound though I see you've opted out of the audio section. Perhaps if you get some time to work on the game later though :) See you next jam :)
Dec 4 14:48:24 4m 42s Bot Defense ♥ 1 Nice work, I think this captures the theme really well! I am particularly impressed with the pathfinding. Great job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 14:51:41 3m 17s The more you have, the worse it is ♥ 0 HAHAH that sound when you die, like you stepped on a cat or something hehhe!! Hilarious game and a great use of the theme.
Dec 4 14:54:22 2m 41s Sheep 'n' Wolf ♥ 0 Nice work! It must be a nightmare building a collide system. Good effort on that though, I didn't find the bug while I was playing :)
Dec 4 15:01:10 6m 48s Birty Land ♥ 1 My best time was 41 seconds. Those Birty's really lay the smack down! I liked how the mech's movement noise was like a music beat, pretty cool idea there! One thing that'd improve it for me is if I could see a bit more of the surrounding area so that i'd be able to see the birties coming. Great job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 15:05:19 4m 09s Mentats of Dune: battle for resources ♥ 1 Wow there's a ton gone into this! Really great stuff with a bit of a gwent-but-on-arakis vibe to it. I love it and I'd love to see how this progresses post LD. I wasn't sure how best to place my troops as I had no idea what the computer was going to place, so I wasn't sure how best to plan my moves.
Dec 4 15:12:43 7m 24s HARP ♥ 0 I really really liked this concept. The controls were quite close together but I think that added to the fact that this was meant to be a brain cluster so didn't see it as much of a negative. I got to level 6 and got hit on the last wave of red dots. Also love the emergant music that's created. You could add a little percussion underneath to fill the space between waves in a round but that's a very small thing. Out of interest, how far does it go level-wise?
Dec 4 15:18:39 5m 56s Bright Vision ♥ 2 I was really into this game. Unfortunately I don't have a VR setup so couldn't play like that but did play fine on my chrome browser. I loved the minimal look and the audio fitted perfectly. I'd be interested in seeing any updates you make to this later. Great work, see you next jam!
Dec 4 15:23:37 4m 58s Metal Goblet Stealer ♥ 1 Great job! I really liked the vibe. The loading of the second level took a little while given the size of it, not a problem, but I just expect a level that size to load pretty instantly.
Dec 4 15:24:26 49s Ski Bowl ♥ 1 Hey @drkered , don't forget to add a link to your game. I can't play it at the moment :)
Dec 4 15:28:08 3m 42s Usagi Story ♥ 1 Nice work here! I think the game satifies the theme nicely. Being a dumb ass it took me a day to realise that you can grab stuff from the boxes to give to the bunnies. I liked the day-night timer and the art in general. Good job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 15:33:22 5m 14s Loot! ♥ 1 heheh this was funny but too real man! Looking forward to the DLC ;) See you next jam
Dec 4 15:39:15 5m 53s The Invasion of Terra ♥ 1 Fun little adventure. Like the opening cinematic and the sounds in particular. Those damn spiders kicked my ass first game so I got some revenge once I got a bat hahha. Great Job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 15:45:41 6m 26s Team leader ♥ 1 Cool little game. I like the vibe and the concept. My only tweek would be to make the initial stage with only one worker a little shorter so you have more to do quickly. Nice amount is in this game for the time available to make it. Good job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 15:49:07 3m 26s NoteBoy ♥ 1 Real nice idea and very well executed. Really love the art style as well as the splitting the screen effect when you add more noteboys. My only improvement would be to make the controls a little more responsive as theres a bit of a time delay between clicking and the jump happening. Great job nonetheless! See you next jam!
Dec 4 15:53:39 4m 32s Juggle Jam ♥ 0 Cool idea. There's a ton in this! I'm really impressed you managed to code all that in 48 hours WHILE also juggling at the same time!
Dec 4 15:57:57 4m 18s Carl Hates Christmas ♥ 1 Nice work, especially on the art and music. I liked how the audio filter shifted when you were dead, I'll have to look into how that's done as it really had a nice effect here. GOod job, see you next jam :)
Dec 4 16:00:12 2m 15s Hungry Cats ♥ 0 Nice work on this one. Was quite tricky too keep all those critters alive, guess I'm more of a dog person. See you next jam :)
Dec 4 16:02:16 2m 04s Break-In ♥ 1 Cool little game there. Played with my housemate and we had a blast! Really liked the art and music. See you next jam :D
Dec 4 16:08:42 6m 26s Turbo Street Rage IV ♥ 1 This was brilliant! I love the disconnect with the sereneness of the music with the sheer rage pumping through an angry mans veins. Was very satisfying OHKOing sukkahs on the way home. [SPOILERS] Also HILARIOUS busting your fridge open hahahhaha. Great work! See you next jam :)
