| Dec 4 16:42:53 | escapeš„hatch | ♥ 1 | Very cool! I ended up just running past the pigs in the later levels (perhaps their surprise reaction time should be shaved down a hair). But seriously, how do you have such consistently good compo entries (with great sound and music, no less)? | |
| Dec 4 16:47:31 | 4m 38s | Sorted | ♥ 0 | Thanks for your comment on my game. First, no less! I played your game! I clicked crates! It took a while for the difficulty to really ramp up. Maybe if you miss like 3 crates (not 50) you lose. That would give me a bit more of a sense of urgency. Excellent first entry! |
| Dec 4 16:54:53 | 7m 22s | Reversed Negativity | ♥ 1 | Looks cool! Any chance for a web or mac version? |
| Dec 4 17:19:53 | 25m 00s | Sky-Corsair | ♥ 1 | Neat! I love the voxel graphics. You need a "retry" button, since it took me a few runs to get my sea legs (and perhaps a slightly longer music loop would be nice too). Great compo entry! |
| Dec 4 17:26:45 | 6m 52s | Zombituary | ♥ 1 | Downloaded the Mac version, but was told it's been damaged and moved to the trash. Screen Shot 2017-12-04 at 12.26.25 PM.png |
| Dec 4 18:09:23 | 42m 38s | Kalyuka | ♥ 1 | Nice! Great music. Why did you opt out of audio? Like the commenter above, I just held down space and it seemed to go well. Those tentacles though... Keep up the good work! |
| Dec 4 18:18:01 | 8m 38s | Stacks | ♥ 1 | Love it! Stacks! Great overall feel - clean (sterile?) graphics and nice interaction. This is the game I wish I had made this time around. |
| Dec 4 22:37:11 | 4h 19m | Please Come In | ♥ 1 | Very cool. I really like the concept (and it's amazing how a touch of graphics can go such a long way in interactive fiction). This is definitely worth finishing. It needs some sounds! |
| Dec 4 22:49:48 | 12m 37s | Star Destroyer | ♥ 0 | Nice great job with the lighting. I think that's what really makes the experience. You should add some background music and have the stars pulse along or something like that. Great compo entry. |
| Dec 4 22:53:23 | 3m 35s | Yottaman | ♥ 1 | Great compo entry, especially considering you've got sound and music too. I definitely blew up the world several times, but at least it was just the Americas. |
| Dec 4 22:58:25 | 5m 02s | AdBlock Doesn't Work! | ♥ 0 | I WANT TO PLAY THIS... ... Mac version doesn't seem to work. I get past the load screen, but them I'm stuck here: Screen Shot 2017-12-04 at 5.58.03 PM.png No amount of clicking seems to do anything. |
| Dec 4 23:25:57 | 27m 32s | Babies! Babies! Babies! | ♥ 3 | Wonderfully terrifying. It dawned on me halfway through that my infant son was in a bouncer next to me as I played this game. I need some coffee. |
| Dec 5 00:20:22 | 54m 25s | Amitosis | ♥ 1 | No game link? |
| Dec 5 22:45:50 | 22h 25m | Epitaph | ♥ 2 | Whoa, super-nice work. I love the atmosphere that you're able to create here. Looking at your comment above, I agree communicating the progression might be a little too subtle here (though, in my game, I went too far in the other direction). I think a little post-jam time spent balancing this a little more and this is a true gem. |
| Dec 5 22:51:10 | 5m 20s | Poser | ♥ 1 | Ha! I like it. It took me a moment to work it out, but, really, your game teaches the mechanics quite well. You always do a great job with the audio. Who knew furries were a clique. |
| Dec 5 22:59:18 | 8m 08s | Bum Bag Bangin' | ♥ 3 | Yay! A new Sea Dads game! This fantastic. You guys succeeded in what I was trying to do: take a simple game and cram it so full of style and charm that you make something special. Without being too self-deprecating, I missed the mark a bit this time, but you guys hit it with the writing, voice-acting and level and character designs. Bravo. |
| Dec 5 23:01:16 | 1m 58s | Coffee Run | ♥ 1 | Looks awesome. Any chance for a mac or web version? |
| Dec 5 23:01:49 | 33s | Delicious Colors | ♥ 0 | I really want to play this! Any chance for a Mac or web build? |
| Dec 6 00:07:33 | 1h 05m | Curse of Greed | ♥ 0 | Whoa. Nice work. This looks really nice and, overall, the control feels really good (though I echo a bit of the comment about the camera motion above). Having done a little Pico-8 myself, I know this is no small feat. Awesome integration of the theme. When I started I was worried that it was going to be a relatively obvious more-money-makes-you-heavier thing, but when I figured out what was going on I was really impressed by the originality. All you need is some fat Pico-8 music! |
| Dec 6 00:22:40 | 15m 07s | Musk Mining Industries | ♥ 1 | I WANT to love this. It's got everything I want, namely retro CGA graphics, but it's just way too hard for me. I had fun crashing the ship for a bit, but then I had to walk away... Any way to reduce the difficulty for casual gamers like me? |
| Dec 6 01:56:08 | 1h 33m | Bee Rush | ♥ 0 | Looks like fun! Any chance of a Mac or web build? |
| Dec 6 02:46:35 | 50m 27s | No Name Ninja Game | ♥ 1 | Wow. This is solid. I really like the spinning attack, even though I don't like splitting between the keyboard and mouse. There are a lot of great details in here too. Nice work. |
| Dec 6 02:52:34 | 5m 59s | Infected Pong | ♥ 1 | Hahahahaa. I had a pong game too. Similar in a lot of ways, actually, you should check it out. I think yours has a better grasp on the aesthetic though, and I like how it evolves. Nice work. |
| Dec 7 03:01:41 | 24h 09m | Party Penguin | ♥ 1 | Very cool. It's tough, especially with the configurations of the keys not being consisent, but I like the vibe (and, of course, penguins). |
| Dec 7 03:06:06 | 4m 25s | Panic Blocks | ♥ 1 | Very cool. This is a sophisticated little game, mashing up a bunch of different existing tropes into a new, orignal whole. It needs music! |
| Dec 7 03:11:02 | 4m 56s | Headache | ♥ 1 | I like it. Great concept. I'm not sure I entirely understand how to judge people, so it's probably for the best that that's not my job. Good choice of bgm too. |
| Dec 7 16:13:44 | 13h 02m | The lost strawberry | ♥ 1 | Wow, awesome job with the graphics, audio, and overall aesthetic here. This is some really impressive Pico-8 work. The challenges is a bit much for me, figuring out what's collidable etc., but I think that's intrinsic to your game, so I'm not sure there's anything you'd want to change. Keep up the good work! |
| Dec 8 16:45:55 | 24h 32m | CalligraTree | ♥ 2 | Nice! Very cool idea and nice execution. This is super-original and the visuals aesthetics are off the chart. Depending on where you want to go with it, this could be an amazing relaxing game if you slowed down the pace a bit and changed the music to something a bit more "Zen" (hit me up if you want some original music for this post-jam!). Really nice work. |
| Dec 8 17:30:58 | 45m 03s | Objectification | ♥ 1 | Oh man, I need to dust off my old Dreamcast and burn a disc. Awesome work. I like absurd/surrealist feel of this, but I'm not in love with the memory-game aspect of it. Perhaps some sound and audio would help with my immersion? |
| Dec 8 23:42:38 | 6h 11m | Drift Punk | ♥ 1 | Oh man, it's a cyberpunk Crazy Taxi! Very nicely done. I love the music and sound design too. Awesome entry. |
| Dec 8 23:48:59 | 6m 21s | Runaway Magic | ♥ 1 | Neat! Not at all what I expected from the description, but much funnier. Great job with the art, especially in such a short timeframe. It needs some music! |
| Dec 8 23:57:54 | 8m 55s | Like a Boss Rush | ♥ 0 | Nice! I had trouble getting this to run on Firefox, but I opened it with Safari and it was AOK. Cool game, I like the forgivingness of the hint system. It doesn't make me feel too stupid when I can't figure things out. |
| Dec 9 01:43:28 | 1h 45m | Earl's Quest | ♥ 1 | Very cool. I was immediately taken back to my days playing Final Fantasy Legend. Nice work. A few more obstacles, etc., and this will be a great adventure! |
| Dec 9 13:42:51 | 11h 59m | A simple man | ♥ 1 | Wow. This is a really interesting and moody game. It feels like a kind of micro-Terraria in some ways, I think that's in part due to the music. It's really impressive that this is all procedurally generated too. Really nice work. |
| Dec 9 13:48:58 | 6m 07s | Radioactive Cavemen | ♥ 1 | Nice. I like the aesthetics here (needs sounds!), and I love the art on the mutants. It sure ramps up fast! |
| Dec 9 15:16:44 | 1h 27m | Crosstalk | ♥ 1 | Cool idea, and nice execution. I abstract ideas that draw in interaction via our curiousity. I wonder if a little more development of the audio (like a kind of radio tuning), might be more effective, but perhaps that goes against the point of the game. Keep up the good work! |
| Dec 9 15:26:36 | 9m 52s | HP Bar | ♥ 1 | This was a fun little idea. I definitely didn't kill the boss. Perhaps that's the point: "... the worse it gets." Cool meta-entry. |
