Dec 5 00:28:36		Rabbits Rains From Above	♥ 1	It isn't obvious what the blue bunnies or red bunnies actually do.
Dec 5 00:38:46	10m 10s	Inky Pinky Square	♥ 1	A very solid concept at work here, and a clever take on the theme.
Dec 5 01:38:54	1h 00m	Soup's On!	♥ 0	I agree with MarshCannon, the game could be much more enjoyable with hotkeys for the spices. Also, visual and aural feedback for when spices are selected and added to the soup would make it easier to play. It is odd that spices decay so quickly and you end up putting a metric ton of spices into the soups. P.S. I love LÖVE!
Dec 5 03:01:22	1h 22m	Infected Pong	♥ 1	I always like a bit of self-reference in games. The visuals are adorable.
Dec 5 03:21:01	19m 39s	Ice Dream	♥ 1	The game looks beautiful and had nice music. I found it nearly impossible to make the correct ice cream scoop though.
Dec 5 04:03:44	42m 43s	Don't Level Up... Yet!	♥ 1	Basic, but fun.
Dec 5 04:16:32	12m 48s	One Matter	♥ 0	The movement of the character was incredibly frustrating. Not just because of the momentum and the jumping issue, but because the character movement seems to be aligned with the screen instead of the world.
Dec 5 11:50:30	7h 33m	PullPals	♥ 1	A lot of potential here. A very solid concept and fantastic execution. Procedural level generation, for the sake of replayability, would be an ideal way to "finish" this game if you didn't want to work on it much more beyond Ludum Dare, but I encourage you to keep developing it!
Dec 5 14:29:45	2h 39m	DO NOT FEED	♥ 1	I was also not inspired by the theme, but I got my game submitted anyway. I actually think this is a fantastic concept. I can imagine a finished product where the birds eat the food, get fat, weigh down the power line, and over time perhaps more food is thrown or more birds show up and it gets hilariously overcrowded on-screen. I think this kind of game could fit in with other dog-park games ( https://itch.io/search?q=dog+park ) which tend to be on the relaxing side. I encourage you to continue working on the game, and consider the "meditative game" approach. Good work!
Dec 5 14:38:54	9m 09s	Aurora	♥ 1	Somehow a "Bullet-Hell" game is a peaceful, relaxing experience. This is a lovely game.
Dec 5 14:47:17	8m 23s	CalligraTree	♥ 3	A fantastic experience! You might consider opting out of the "Humor" rating, so that it doesn't impact your score.
Dec 5 15:13:50	26m 33s	THE LOST SON	♥ 0	I was often getting stuck in the ground, becoming unable to move or jump. As though there is an offset issue with the colliders or the actual collision detection math is off. A great effort otherwise!
Dec 5 17:05:45	1h 51m	The 1D107 Exterminator	♥ 1	So I liked this one. "Population Control" being applied to top-down shooting mechanics makes me feel like a villain, evil. Adding to that effect is the fact that the people are not aggressive from the start. I especially like that they seem to gradually become aware of their massacre, and will fade to red and commence chasing you. The need to shoot through walls adds to the feeling of villainy too! Even though the game (even the standalone) has performance issues, I think there is a solid concept here. Some ideas: perhaps some people will chase the player, and some will run and/or hide (simply invert the chase AI you have). And perhaps the people are harder to find at night. Good effort!
Dec 5 17:29:04	23m 19s	SPLIT	♥ 1	I appreciate this take on the theme, and the visuals are pretty good. The revelation that his son and wife were dead fell flat. Our character seemed to react quite nonchalantly to their lifeless bodies. It didn't help that the bodies were out of frame when the dialog started. Also, a temporary flare in the music would have helped.
Dec 5 18:34:25	1h 05m	Catlady	♥ 0	I hope you fix your build.
Dec 5 21:20:54	2h 46m	Sunburn	♥ 0	My only real complaint is that the camera movement can be a little jerky. Otherwise, this is a very solid game.
Dec 5 21:40:58	20m 04s	9 Lives	♥ 0	Great art work. I like the dingy streets look.
Dec 6 00:15:51	2h 34m	Rescue	♥ 1	Very challenging. Good effort!
Dec 6 00:57:01	41m 10s	Avoider	♥ 2	One of the few games I have played to completion. I loved the weird orthographic view. As for the camera and movement controls, they were a little offputting and made the movement more difficult. If you perhaps slowed the panning down a bit and lessened the frequency with which the camera automatically adjusts, then I think the control would work very well to compliment the strange perspective. Also, I did not catch on to the fact that the other people were my past selves. You might make that more clear somehow. Wonderful game.
Dec 6 01:44:51	47m 50s	Tiny Empires	♥ 2	This is the skeleton for a coherent 4X game, and that is impressive.
Dec 6 03:22:55	1h 38m	Pac Attack	♥ 1	The original Pac-man had restricted movement. This one, I can bump into walls. It is also missing the large dots that turn ghosts blue. Still, it is non-trivial to program a pac-man game, so good effort!
Dec 6 03:32:30	9m 35s	Epitaph	♥ 1	Great visuals. The gameplay is lacking and the theme doesn't show. I hope with those visuals this turns into something more!
Dec 6 03:49:23	16m 53s	Feathers	♥ 1	It was a good story. I'd have liked to have seen you use Twine in a more interesting, perhaps less linear, fashion. But good on you for deciding to make something, and especially cool that you used Twine.
Dec 6 03:51:30	2m 07s	Penti	♥ 1	I am intrigued by your description. Can you release a Linux or web build?
Dec 6 04:05:59	14m 29s	Yottaman	♥ 1	Great game. Fun, funny, and a clever take on the theme.
Dec 7 01:26:05	21h 20m	Power and Reaction	♥ 1	This is one of the best games I have played. I was hoping someone would interpret the theme this way. The player is overwhelmed by the amount of things happening on screen(this is a GOOD quality!). The visuals are delightful too! I do agree that it is not at all obvious how you are supposed to shot at the ceiling. I think this game could do well if the art remained as it is and bits of the gameplay were refined.
Dec 7 02:10:13	44m 08s	Vault Loot	♥ 0	Right shift? Do you mean Left Shift? I couldn't find the drop off point at first.
Dec 7 02:33:00	22m 47s	Iglu	♥ 2	I couldn't get past the first area. I'm not sure how many areas there are in the Jam version. The level design in the first area is awkward. The cold meter goes quickly and the hitboxes for the enemies are unforgiving. But the art and sound is absolutely wonderful.
Dec 7 03:09:17	36m 17s	Cohesion	♥ 1	An excellent puzzle game. I think it played fast and loose with the theme though. I agree @therdre that the 'tutorial' levels were perfectly paced.
Dec 7 03:17:14	7m 57s	ADM - Artic Ded Mazay	♥ 1	The visuals are very interesting and the music is nice. I couldn't really understand what my sword was doing most of the time. Also, this might be the first actual Linux build of a Unity game I have played so far (all the others being webgl), so thanks!
Dec 7 17:56:11	14h 38m	Shapes Are Mean	♥ 1	I like the concept a lot, and it is certainly pretty. But I felt like I had very little control over the things happening on screen. I think that simply better 'level' design will fix that. A lot of "bullet hell" games (which this is sort of an inversion of) will have a discernible patterns to the bullets and so the player can plan their movements with precision. You should maybe do that sort of thing here.
Dec 7 18:03:05	6m 54s	Hairball	♥ 1	If you had like a dozen tiny little experiences similar in weirdness to this, and then put them into one game, it would be very cool. A bunch of weird "gameplay vignettes". But stand-alone, there just isn't much of interest.
Dec 7 18:16:39	13m 34s	Critter™ Sitter	♥ 3	Absolutely brilliant interpretation of the theme with period sfx and visuals. There were no complicated mechanics to figure out so I could get down to business right away. I thought the pacing might be a tad too quick. I think you want players grinning and basking in the nostalgia for a bit longer before it becomes a hilarious challenge to feed them and hug them all. Then again, maybe that's what the casual mode is for.
Dec 7 19:25:20	1h 08m	Junk	♥ 1	I love the concept. You really ought to make an art print of the giant tetris tower eventually. Or have a website where the thing can be viewed without playing. Some feedback: * I thought the game had started when the tetris tower was zooming by and was immediately confused and thought I was performing very badly. * The transparency on the ghost block needs to be increased, or the ghost block needs to be removed entirely. I thought it served to clutter things up and make the game harder. * I couldn't slide a block left or right at the last second to fit it under other pieces! I like tetris games that permit that. * Add SFX! Love the game. Good work. P.S. I love LÖVE!
Dec 7 19:52:06	26m 46s	Horny Bunny	♥ 6	Great art, and good humor!
Dec 7 22:30:17	2h 38m	A Chore Too Far	♥ 0	It felt like I was moving an image around on a 2D plane, and occasionally colliding with some invisible rectangles, and triggering the appearance of text or graphics on the screen. Or to put in another way, it didn't feel like I was playing a game or like I was controlling a character that lived in a place.
Dec 7 22:42:09	11m 52s	Leaf Me Alone	♥ 0	I'm did not seem to have the same experience as others. For a long time I was just pushing leaves off screen after realizing that the rake doesn't do much, and I expected the frequency of leaves falling would gradually increase but it never did.
Dec 8 15:13:44	16h 31m	Warehouse	♥ 1	There aren't enough "vivarium" games. I hope you can turn this into something more interesting. Keep up the good work!
Dec 8 15:27:47	14m 03s	Mountain Diver	♥ 1	Well the art is nice. The character could use some extra animation though. The concept is solid, but perhaps more focus should be put on making sure the climb to the summit is actually possible. I played the web version and it would crash if I held-down Ctrl for too long (while my character was half-off screen).
Dec 8 19:46:30	4h 18m	King's Gambit	♥ 1	Hey this turned out quite nicely! You could turn it up a notch by having animated characters, and maybe some kind of resource system that would enable actual negotiation instead of simple flattery. Also consider adding more characters. This one is just a what if: you could move their portrait cards around to sit them next to people they find favorable or disfavorable, and that could affect their stats.
Dec 8 21:57:25	2h 10m	The Will of the Wisps	♥ 0	Fantastic visuals, especially with the dynamic lighting. Your interpretation of the theme is novel, and I loved the way the darkness concealed the monsters, with your light revealing their true form. I think the music, while orchestrated well, takes away from the mood. I think it would have been much better to hear crickets and the occasional strange monstrous sound, with only perhaps only a couple of notes suspenseful music when a monster in close.
Dec 8 22:11:26	14m 01s	The Amazing Game 3.0	♥ 0	A joyful experience. I loved the humor, especially the giant decals that block the view during death match.
Dec 9 00:28:07	2h 16m	The Final Judgement	♥ 1	The story seems interesting. When a game is linked to mystical consequences, their's potential for an interesting story. But the game itself is incomprehensible. The UI is indeed small and hard to read. I didn't know what to do after drawing a card, and when I pressed pass I didn't notice anything happening. You have this nice 3D scene, but that serves only as a backdrop, which is a shame. It seems like you thought mostly about implementing the rules and mechanics of the game, but the way those rules and mechanics are presented to the player is vital.
Dec 9 05:35:12	5h 07m	A Spark of Light	♥ 1	A great game all around. Two minor things: the tutorial text was hard to read and it seemed like one could almost play indefinitely by skirting around the outside.
Dec 9 06:01:04	25m 52s	Mr. Capital!	♥ 1	5 stars all around! This is the best-feeling platformer I have played so far. My only gripe is that sometimes the platforms were too close together and so jumping between them without falling off was difficult.
Dec 9 06:25:32	24m 28s	Extinction	♥ 0	The dinosaur was cute, and the ground texture looked nice. The theme came through in a humorous way. Sound effects would have made a huge difference.
Dec 9 15:46:57	9h 21m	テッ球 T E K K Y U	♥ 1	Since your native build for Linux was untested, and I have Linux, I downloaded it and played it. Here are my laptop specs: Lenovo Thinkpad T510 (Mftd 2009) Second Generation Intel i5 8GB of RAM 250GB SSD The game ran very poorly on my laptop, even at low resolution. But given all the eye candy in your game, I didn't expect it to run well on a 2009 laptop. I played it on my Windows computer instead. The game ran fine, but I did notice that there were a lot of resolution options to choose from, including ones that resulted in cropping of the menu screen. 800x600 seems to be the smallest the game will go before that starts becoming apparent. You should limit resolution options in the Unity dialogue that pops up prior to starting. Visually, it seemed to me like everything was tinted (I promise I didn't have flux enabled!). None of the colors popped. In a game this challenging, I think it would be nice to include customizable controls. The music is fantastic, and the overall aesthetic is consistent. A sort of callback to 90's gaming, when the arcade wasn't quite dead and when Japanese game development was more relevant.
Dec 9 16:14:25	27m 28s	Rush Hour!	♥ 1	Talk about a hidden gem! There are much worse games with a lot more ratings! Feedback: * Great music, I wish there were more sound effects. * All of the other cars were green, I want to see more colors! A brighter, more dynamic environment all around would go a long way. Take inspiration from Crazy Taxi, perhaps. * I found that in order to get to the goal, I HAD to collect violations. That's by design I imagine, but I didn't know how many violations, or which ones would cause a Fail state. * I really think there is something to this race against the clock being balanced by goal of not getting too many violations. A faster pace to the gameplay (occasionally interrupted by the hilariously slow traffic) might be cool. * The humor was great. I loved the sarcasm and the violations getting in your way was a nice touch. I hope this is developed futher!
Dec 9 16:25:46	11m 21s	Star Destroyer	♥ 0	As everyone has said, the game is certainly pretty. I felt though that this is a tech demo of the lighting engine, just with added collision detection and a score system. More could be done to make it feel like a meaningful experience. Consider this: The rotation of the player character, especially as it grew in size, was very interesting to look at, and reminded me of a "void" or "black hole", and it was a little unsettling. Maybe you can work with that.
Dec 9 17:09:27	43m 41s	RE-SANTA	♥ 0	Beautiful, funny, fun. I didn't quite get the goal until like 2020. You are supposed to look at the schedule and try to plan how you will distribute gifts so that you can maximize happiness. So a bit of foresight is required, and that is really cool. Maybe that needs to be communicated to the player a little better though? Wonderful work, and I am very curious how the thread-look was acheived.
Dec 9 18:20:48	1h 11m	Paperwork	♥ 5	Great visuals, and music and a funny concept. I think the impact sound effect for when the player lands is way too loud. The biggest issue I had was jumping while carrying documents. I know the documents are supped to weigh you down, but it meant that I could hardly ever make it over one platform. Often I had to wait for the accountant to walk and push my stack up so that I could proceed.
Dec 9 19:07:02	46m 14s	Duck Guardian	♥ 0	The quacking got real old real fast. Reduce the effectiveness of the quaking, or make the response from the siblings more variable.
Dec 10 03:47:25	8h 40m	SpaceBallz	♥ 2	I love the little constellation motion with the mouse on the menu screen. The game is not easy. Two things that might make it a little more approachable: longer flares on the sun in order to make aiming a bit easier, and bigger planets. I appreciate that the game wasn't made in Unity, lol.
Dec 10 03:59:28	12m 03s	Infernus: The Descent	♥ 1	Animations for the characters are really necessary, along with music and sound effects. And I hope that if you take this concept further, you do so in a way that isn't sexist.
Dec 10 14:03:23	10h 03m	AAAH, CRABS!	♥ 0	A strange game indeed. To make a NSFW game like this does take a bit of courage. The delay in the motion of the hand with the mouse was probably a design choice, but it felt odd. I played on Linux and it seemed fine. Feel free to play and rate my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/crosstalk
Dec 10 16:25:42	2h 22m	Go-Ned Re-education	♥ 1	Too many ducks! This is a coherent (aesthetically complete) game that is an homage to systems of the past. There is a quirky rehab story literally set outside of the world of the game. A frame within a frame. I adore that kind of thing. If you were to expand this game I could imagine more games being played of varying genres, but with a "rehabilitation" twist AND you could somehow, through vague indirect means (new model of rehab machine, different style/tone of language for the dialogue boxes that pop up) expand on the rehab theme. Great work!
Dec 10 16:42:01	16m 19s	Jazzy Beats	♥ 3	Fantastic visuals and music. The characters are oozing with personality. I wish that the followers you gain had a more apparent affect on gameplay. It seemed to me that they just walked away peacefully when they turned gold. The combat is perhaps too simplistic. I'd love to see a musical beat-em-up like this, with a fleshed out story, and musical combat where each instrument has a different effect on people. I would take the kick out entirely. Imagine this multiplayer! You could have a whole jazz band "fighting" on Bourbon Street!
Dec 10 17:42:03	1h 00m	Finally done :D	♥ 1	Fix the jumping/gravity and this is a good start. If game development interests you then you will only grow from here.
Dec 10 17:51:58	9m 55s	Paw for Cream	♥ 1	I thoroughly enjoy the concept. Sound effects and music would go a long way to improving the game. As would a more robust score system (store high scores, count the number of cones made). But I think the biggest thing to improve is the actual ice cream physics. It would be really cool if the stream behaved more like the real ones, where you can move the cone around to swirl the ice cream as it enters the cone. You could maintain the "lost ice cream" rule by having the stream wiggle with the movement of the cone, so that player can't get too wild with it or else ice cream will fall off. And one last thought, it would be cool if there were a separate score system for artistry. How neat/clean does your cone look? A lot of potential here.
Dec 10 18:05:41	13m 43s	Holiday Parking Panic!	♥ 0	Difficult, but not punishing. In the spirit, but not serious. It reminds me a lot of No Brakes Valet. Great entry!
Dec 10 19:15:44	1h 10m	BLOK'D	♥ 1	I played for maybe half an hour. That's a REALLY long time for a jam game. This is a fantastic match game. At first glance it doesn't fit the theme, but the higher your score, the more colors you need to match until at some point the board is impossible to solve. A lovely experience.
Dec 10 19:57:07	41m 23s	Between Stations	♥ 2	Absolutely beautiful work. If this was autobiographical then I am sure it was cathartic to make, and I congratulate you on expressing your self in this way. If it was not autobiographical, then I congratulate you for making something that can leave such a profound impression on people. The surreality of this work, and the emotional impact are what really, truly impressed me. This one might be the best game I have played so far. I think it is a finished product, but I wonder if you have plans to expand it post jam. ##Thank you
Dec 11 01:06:04	5h 08m	Bright Vision	♥ 1	Didn't play with VR, but I appreciated the abstract visuals and the simple yet atmospheric gameplay.
Dec 11 01:47:56	41m 52s	The Carrier	♥ 0	More direction needs to be given, I didn't know what I was supposed to do. I figured it out after a bit, and then struggled with controlling the ship. Once I got the hang of the ship controls, this game became fantastic. I loved the slow pace, the music, the graphics, the CRT filter. Make the filling of the tanks more apparent. The particles for the water were just going right on top of the container. Why even have a spout with particles? Just fill the tank up with an animation of a hose attaching to the bottom of the tank, and show the level of water not only with a number, but also visually. Other than the awkward loading, and the sometimes glass-delicate armor of the ship, this game is very, very good. You want more ratings (which you absolutely deserve), then you ought to rate and review more games.
Dec 11 02:12:23	24m 27s	Hats On!	♥ 1	A lot of charm. I hope this is ported to mobile!
Dec 11 20:31:31	18h 19m	...	♥ 0	I could not get past the second level, as I had no idea what to do.
Dec 11 20:41:08	9m 37s	BaconMan	♥ 1	Hey! This game is good! I love the multi-tasking and the controls are great for adding to the chaos. I made my game in LOVE as well (and I used your Make File of Doom for the Builds 😛). I am definitely going to include a LOVE splash screen in future games.
Dec 11 21:01:05	19m 57s	M - (name is too short)	♥ 1	I definitely like how the switches change the game. The world art was absolutely beautiful, I might open the tmx file and look at the whole thing all at once. I do wonder if an art print of the level would be cool. If I had to nit pick, I'd say that I couldn't enjoy exploring the world because the enemies were always after me, and very fast. If that kind of tension between fleeing and exploring is what you were going for, then bravo! My game was made with LOVE as well, if you care to play it: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/crosstalk
Dec 12 02:47:12	5h 46m	boost	♥ 1	I loved the scripted story as @josefnpat pointed out. I especially love the misdirection it provides sometimes. An unreliable narrator. Fun! My only compaint is that the game is ridiculously difficult. I finished it though.
Dec 12 17:16:05	14h 28m	Match	♥ 1	This is a fantastic blend of spatial-reasoning puzzle and dexterity challenge. The visuals are clean and unambiguous (an important quality in puzzle games), and easy to look at, which is very nice. the sound effects are simple. Player feedback is well designed overall. I have two gripes: 1. It wasn't clear in the beginning what I was actually supposed to do. To fix this I would change the verbs on the instructions. Instead saying "use arrow keys to SHOOT or PULL-SHOT", say "PUSH or PULL". And then in-game, perhaps make the first 3 blocks fall into the center in a way that hints at what to do. For example, the first 3 blocks are always the same color, and two of them fall on top of each other, with the third one offset by one cell. 2. It got difficult too quickly, in my opinion. Perhaps one of the reasons is because I can only move 1 cell at a time, and I have to traverse a lot of empty space to get at the blocks I want to shoot. Consider that the overall size of the grid on which the game is played may be too large, causing an imbalance between the dexterity challenge and the actual puzzle. Overall, a very solid game. Great work!
Dec 12 21:03:07	3h 47m	Legend of Crystalia	♥ 1	I kept falling off the level. It was difficult navigating an isometric world with orthographic(screen-normal) controls.
Dec 13 01:39:28	4h 36m	Too Much Slime!	♥ 0	Okay, the platforming is extremely rough. I was constantly getting stuck on the walls and it felt like my jump was sometimes high enough and sometimes not. The level design is really not friendly to the game mechanic. I couldn't finish the second level because I could rarely make all the jumps successfully or I would have trouble getting past the 3rd enemy. The level design is that of a basic platformer, not one where the character is a maleable blob that grows or shrinks in size. Lastly, the music had way too much bass in my opinion. So if you can fix the collision detection, and come up with some clever level design, then you might have something here.
Dec 13 02:18:45	39m 17s	Hoarding	♥ 1	I can imagine an expanded version where the houses are different shapes, not just an empty square. Add sound effects and some more player feedback (how do I know when I have grabbed a box?) and you could make this into a spatial reasoning puzzle game. Also, I love that its on pico-8. Great work!
Dec 13 03:56:16	1h 37m	Time is Bad	♥ 1	The speed and character animations were beautiful. I didn't really know what was going on with the timer, why it kept jumping up and down. Was I selecting a time before starting? I didn't realize that. And as others have said, this kind of game needs its levels to be completely deterministic and predictable, so that players can learn and master through trial and error.
Dec 13 04:39:31	43m 15s	Theme - The Game	♥ 1	I am intrigued by this enigma of a game. I love games in which the rules and mechanics are not taught, but have to be discovered. I feel like I am exploring not only the makeup of the system of the game, but also the mind of its creator. I really appreciate this game. It is clear that you are dedicated to your craft.
Dec 14 19:02:31	38h 23m	Untouched	♥ 0	The game is pretty, and relaxing music and sfx would be nice, but the premise is a bit dull in my opinion. It's like "Mountain" except without the interesting objects that appear or events that happen. Make this a more dynamic little island, and make the removal of human structures a more interesting process, and you'll have something.
Dec 15 18:57:12	23h 54m	Jump Plus	♥ 1	The first 2 levels were very difficult because it felt like the gravity was low (not that the jump was high) and the friction was low. After the first 2 levels, I started to have fun. I really like that you made jumping a non-trivial challenge. Just when I started to see the level design evolve into interesting configurations, the game ends. I can imagine being 100 levels in and the level design (and therefore the whole game in this case) is completely different, with the platforms being so far apart that they are off screen and so the player constantly has to take leaps of faith and try to find the next surface to land on without falling. That far into the game, the player would spend more time in the air than on the ground. A lot of potential here, in such a simple concept. Make the levels procedurally generated (or you could just have a lot of manually created levels), theme it (unless you want to keep the visuals abstract), and you'd have something cool.
Dec 15 22:21:52	3h 24m	Shooting Shadows	♥ 0	I absolutely loved the sounds of the gun. This game was made very challenging by the fact that Ghosts could move through walls but I couldn't shoot through walls. Also, I couldn't succeed in grabbing the chest in the 3rd level because the ghosts spawned too close to me and I could never push them all away to open the chest. This is a solid platformer that may need some difficulty tuning, but I didn't see much innovation, except for the extremely satisfying gun sound effect.
Dec 16 03:16:46	4h 54m	Goodnight Sheep	♥ 3	I adore this game. The story is relatable, the visuals are nice, the music track is simple. The game works to simulate a mind wandering before sleeping because of three things: 1. Thoughts are constantly moving, shifting, overlapping, and so you have to wait until the "active" thought moves into a visible space. I found myself activating a thought without reading the whole thing first. That's something a racing mind might do before sleep comes. 2. The need to wait means that thoughts come slowly. 3. You can see the whole story on screen, but you don't quite know the order in which thoughts will become active. Yes, it is a "simple" game in that the story is basically linear and all you do is click on sheep in a certain order. But its unfair to be so reductive toward experiences of this sort. One cannot discount the effect of the story being told, the color and visual style, the sound effects and music. All of those things strengthen the core interaction, which is itself made more interesting by the movement and overlapping of the sheep, and not "just clicking". Using continuous x/y transforms and Z-order to symbolize a scattered, racing/wandering mind. That's cool. If this game is to be expanded, I think all it needs is just a variety of narratives. More than just a narrative about a student fretting over his/her immediate future.

But having seen some other's screenshots of insanely high scores, I have to conclude that that would not be a fair criticism. I guess I just suck at these sorts of games. I liked the visuals a lot, but I didn't get the sense that the key presses were on beat (could be I suck at finding the beat). Include instructions on the menu screen! Or at least in the description of your game on this page!

Not by making it a rhythm game, but by turning the sounds of colliding with the blocks into musical notes of a song, which would of course increase in tempo as you speed up.

I'd love to see not only more types of lava lamps, but also more dynamics in the level geometry. What if one lamp reversed gravity? What if you only had a limited number of shooty things? A lot of potential here.
