| Dec 5 04:47:03 | Smash! Smash! Destroy the West! Jangnanmon! | ♥ 3 | Here's my feedbacks: from the start its really handy you can download an unzipped .exe, straightforward, nice the cover picture at the top of this page is super pro-looking, congratulate the graphist for me if you can :D antivirus was a pain but that wasn't a blocking issue soon as the game actually starts, the wall of text is a bit steep IMO I read a total of 0 text for the whole game ^^# a lot of skip it may be a good thing - then I can rediscover the game later on because it turned out to be good <3 But in general yeah there is way too much text then the actual actual gameplay at the start it's a bit overwhelming then punishing then forgiving then I won level one thinking the way to win is just use all your points fully all the time then lost level 2 with this strategy in the end and then there was that dictator from north korea that made me lol 1st Ludum Dare 40 game I play so far and I really liked it Congrats! I hope you get a good grade Take care have a good night of sleep take care :-3 | |
| Dec 5 10:28:47 | 5h 41m | Melody : Burden of Sorrow | ♥ 0 | So first off For a group of people this is really super impressive The game works, it's responding, it has lots of really fine interactions with the level With the dash and jump and double-jump and wall jump and jump + fall hard to break platforms etc. I'd say that I find it a bit convoluted Too many things to do It may have worked just as well, better even with less controls Less possible interactions with the level It may have come out more focused Next thing ---> the keys used on the keyboard are god-aweful Check it out on an AZERTY keyboard It's a nightmare ^^# It got my left hand twisted in a weird position - not comfortable at all ^^# But it's really neat and finished and it workes and it's not broken For a Jam in a team of only, it's honestly incredible. Good job y'all :D And here's some QA for you ---> http://y-roirand.com/host/QAjeu2.png I got stuck inside a wall ^^# Take care :D |
| Dec 6 12:20:02 | 25h 51m | The Big Nom | ♥ 0 | So 1st of all, the name is bad. It makes sense with the game, but it's extremely confusing because of the game Fat Princess (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_Princess) Semantically speaking, "fat princess" and "princess cake" are absolutely identical, and therefore people will think you're speaking of the game "Fat Princess" when you talk about your game "Princess Cake" - I advise you to think about this next time before choosing a name. The game is graphically impressive, it makes my PC lag ^^ maybe look into optimising the 3D somehow for next time. It's impressive though - it looks reall good, the lighting is impressive for a Game Jam game, good job! The level design is poor I found ---> right from the start you don't really have a choice, you're blocked in the game until you eat not 1 piece of cake, but 3 pieces of cake. So... what is the point of having singular pieces of cake if you need 3 right from the start? Also, once you've eaten a piece of cake, you can't digest it or puke it, that I find odd. Then I find the game a bit sluggish with the 3 pieces of cake that were eaten ---> it just makes the game more slow and less interesting. In a way, that makes you respond to the theme, I guess ---> except that you don't have a choice! You're blocked in the game until you eat 3 pieces of cake, which makes the game more slow and less interesting! It's a bit of a shame. All in all ---> good game, focus more on Game Design next time. Take care and congratulations on finishing that game on time, good job :D |
| Dec 6 12:42:51 | 22m 49s | Pigeon | ♥ 1 | This game is awesome dude! Pigeon simulator... well hell yeah! The fact you did it all by yourself blows my mind. I had the game in 1 of my tabs that stayed on for hours [I forgot about it and just tester it now like 10 mins ago ^^#] and I was lik where does this come from? I think it fouled the cat into thinkin there are likr birds in the house too hahaha The only negative thing I'll say is that I don't know you're punished enough when you eat too much (to go with the theme). In my playthrough I played 4 days in a row but dinn do any more. Aldo the level 2 is bugged maybe - it was super short (like 10 or 20 seconds only). But that aside... it's a really good game. Made in 48 hours by just 1 person I can't believe - but I do 'cause I know you and that you can do anything... as this game proves :D Good job man, honestly :D |
| Dec 6 12:58:07 | 15m 16s | One Button Hero | ♥ 1 | This game is flipping amazing ^^# I really enjoyed that. A lot of good ideas in here! The automatic saves, for example. It's just really enjoyable and well-done! I'd say to try to be a little critical that "One Button Hero" is a little bit misleading... but all in all this is a damn good game, good job youg guys, respect :-O <3 |
| Dec 6 13:40:21 | 42m 14s | Fungus Among Us | ♥ 1 | First of all, be careful, your itch.io link doesn't work dontwork.png OK so I played the game. And oh my word. This is a really really really good game! I was on there for like 10 minutes solid! This is maybe the 6th that I tested so far but it is actually the best game I played so far! It is incredibly good and satisfying! The one problam is lag ^^# lag.png Maybe this is not a very good pic but when youve increased your base sped and damage per hit you can just go through the "cloud" of mushrooms that are following you, hit them, move around so you're too fast to hit, and kill like 10~20 of them in a row. It's really satisfying! BUT then they respawn and recombine and eveything - and that makes my pc lad like 1 frame/second for 10~20 seconds, maybe 30. But it doesn't make my PC crash and it doesn't make me lose the game so it's not so bad. I give you guys like 5 stars everywhere - post the game around, get people to play it, it is really awesome respect you guys this is fuckin good :D Are you going to keep working on it? I am a producer in video games - I'd like to talk about that if you're interested. Like make an indie game out of it. It has a lot of potential <3 |
| Dec 6 14:03:17 | 22m 56s | SUPER COP HERO | ♥ 0 | This is rather good, professional-looking, awesome polish. There is a little problem with the full scree button on the HTML5 version, here's what it looks like on my PC: whitestuff.png Now most of all, there is 1 little problem you forgot about: French people ---> Azerty keyboards. You didn't add the arrow keys in the controls, and even if you did, arrow keys + "R" key for reload would be a problem (the keys are too far appart and they can only be reached with 1 hand because the game uses the mouse). It's extremely important to take that into consideration in a game that's quite punishing: one hit = instant kill. If I have to dodge the enemy bullets but that I have to chose btween not being able to use the "up" key OR having to twist my hand to do so, well... it'll lead me to play just 2 minutes instead of 20 so its a shame. You should fix this! French people are worth it! They are cool! Heck, I should know! Good game tho, take care :) |
| Dec 6 14:13:45 | 10m 28s | Kitchen Things | ♥ 1 | This is pretty good - hard but fun. there is no game over screen it seems, just a point at which I got stuck I couldn't move anymore out of the kitchen but all the sounds and waiting bars of the customers continued going down. That's a shame but if you had no time to implement the "game over" I understand ^^# I find moving the character is frustrating. Because he's slow. And there are so many obstacles in the way. And you're in a hurry! So I get this is the point but still I find it a bit more frustrating than it should be. Anyhow, nice fute funny quite well-polished little game, good job you guys :) |
