Apr 23 02:15:43		PE@CE	♥ 1	I thought this was great, really enjoyed the gameplay and the graphics. Nicely done.
Apr 23 02:57:52	42m 09s	RPG Shop	♥ 1	I really liked this, but I feel like I was getting robbed like every other time 😕 still fun though.
Apr 23 03:10:15	12m 23s	Painting the Black	♥ 1	I love the aesthetic and the gameplay a ton. I agree that some music and sounds would be nice, but I still enjoyed it regardless. Took me forever to get even one point, but I got the hang of it eventually haha.
Apr 23 03:31:29	21m 14s	Zlornko Teaches Typing	♥ 1	This is so awesome...I have a feeling that Zlornko is really just Steve Brule in disguise though, those words are straight out of Check It Out! haha. Really liked the music too. Usually by word 4 or 5 though it seems like it's impossibly hard.
Apr 23 14:34:44	11h 03m	Arachnovoid	♥ 1	This was so good! I really liked the sound design and atmosphere a lot. I'm a fan of anything "infinite void" related so I was sorta biased going into it. My only complaint is that there probably should've been some raycasting between camera and spider to make platforms transparent if you're trying to shoot a web directly up while on a platform. Really liked it a lot though, great job.
Apr 23 14:58:33	23m 49s	The Magical Caster Card Gun	♥ 0	Awesome game! I really liked the concept a lot and actually had a lot of fun playing it. Although the platforming at the end of Level 5 is really difficult to get just right, especially with the high sensitivity. Just a minor gripe though, overall I think it was really well executed.
Apr 23 15:13:29	14m 56s	Speed Dating	♥ 1	The voices were hilarious, especially the frog's. I also appreciated the attention to detail with having the date shake around whenever I would run into something (which I did a lot). Really fun overall though, great job.
Apr 23 15:23:26	9m 57s	Typewriter Dungeon	♥ 1	I love typing games, and this one was great. My only suggestion is that I think the words should enforce accuracy (i.e. reset if a wrong letter is typed) and enforce that the letters are in the right order. Otherwise I really liked it, nicely done.
Apr 23 15:53:48	30m 22s	Flappy Typing	♥ 0	Wow, I really enjoy this game a lot. It almost has a sort of Bennett Foddy-ish feel in my opinion (which is a good thing), and I really liked the old school look and sound. Although I will say that I wish there were new songs each time the levels looped and got faster. Seems like that would be a good way to build on the soundtrack. I also had no clue who mxyzptlk was until this, but that was fun to type. Overall though I thought this was awesome, great combo of genres, great retro visuals and gameplay, and excellent execution.
Apr 23 16:17:33	23m 45s	Obaké	♥ 0	This is so fun! I love the combination of genres, and I've never seen a game that combines 3d and 2d (the worst dimension) like this. I love multitasking games like this and you executed it really well. I also had never heard of Obaké before, so I learned something new today. Nicely done!
Apr 23 23:43:18	7h 25m	Life Is Nuclear	♥ 1	0/10 not enough hurricanes...in all seriousness though, this was great. The rewind mechanic was really nice and the gameplay and music were both great. I wish it were a bit more difficult, but I suppose even if it were I think I'd probably just rewind every time I screwed up. Really nice overall though!
Apr 24 00:07:53	24m 35s	The Lake Of Horrors	♥ 1	255! I really enjoyed it. I never seemed to get bothered by the piranhas though, maybe I just got lucky? And I agree with some others that music would've been a nice addition. Didn't really bother me too much though. Nice job!
Apr 24 17:04:22	16h 56m	Would you marry me ?	♥ 1	Great music and I liked the art style, but I wish it were a bit more expanded. You already have a lot you could build upon if you wanted to. Still like it though!
Apr 24 17:11:39	7m 17s	Type it like Schumacher!	♥ 1	This is such a good idea! The music and gameplay were both really great. If I had any feedback, it'd be that I had to type really slowly for the game to recognize my input, which was a little annoying. I also got stuck at level 2 after I finished level 1 (looks like someone else had that problem too). Otherwise I really enjoyed the style and execution of this.
Apr 24 20:31:19	3h 19m	C://TEXTRIS.EXE	♥ 3	This is definitely one of my favorite interpretations of the theme so far. The music and visuals were fantastic, I'm a big fan of the old school terminal look. I did catch myself reading the story parts more and ignoring the pieces falling, which lead to me having to start over a few times, but I didn't really mind. Really nice work overall, great job to all involved.
Apr 24 20:41:32	10m 13s	Platform Hero	♥ 1	Nice!!! This is actually one of the best pico-8 games I think I've played in a long time. I loved the idea of rhythm based combat, and it was done really well. I'd love to see a longer version of this game one day, it's definitely got potential to be a really great full length game. Nice job!
Apr 24 22:12:25	1h 30m	Zap Herder	♥ 1	The visuals and sound effects in this are fantastic. If this were a mobile game, I'd buy it in an instant. Gets really fun when you try to go as fast as possible. The highest I'm able to get is about 155K. Really nice job with this!
Apr 24 22:24:29	12m 04s	Perpetual Quest	♥ 1	I like it! I mean, I suck at it, but I like it! I'll keep at it and try to get better though, cause I think it's a great idea and is really well done. Both the music and graphics are really awesome. Excellent work you guys!
Apr 24 22:35:12	10m 43s	Harvest Doom	♥ 1	I'm usually not a fan of tower defense games, but this combination of tower defense and farming (plus the horror elements, which are automatic points with me) is actually something that I like a lot. I agree with one of the other commenters that it'd be nice if the requests stayed visible after approaching the door. I had to mess around with that to get it to stay visible, since I kept walking right up to the door. Otherwise I really enjoyed it a lot and would really like to see a full featured version of this one day.
Apr 26 23:02:02	48h 26m	Escape from... something	♥ 1	This was a lot of fun! I really liked having to learn the enemy's movement patterns and everything in order to get through a level. The third level took me a while to get. If I had any feedback, it'd be that maybe the player shouldn't spawn so close to the edge of the level, like on level 2. I kept falling off the edge right after respawning after the guy would catch me, so I'd start dying multiple times. I really liked this game though, great job and I'd like to see more of this!
Apr 27 00:10:32	1h 08m	Pinhuman	♥ 1	Nice! I think I have the high score now. Not sure how often that's updated though. Anyways, really funny game. Some collisions were a little iffy, but that's obviously forgivable for the time frame you guys were working on. Great job!
Apr 27 00:40:34	30m 02s	If Potato Meets Flag Then	♥ 1	This is by far one of my favorite games from the jam so far. The puzzles are so great, and I love the retro graphics/sound effects and music. The level design in the game is what really stood out to me the most, it's a really creative idea for a game and the level design makes it fun to figure out how to get to the end. I'd love to see a full version of this. Great job, 5 stars from me!
Apr 27 00:56:03	15m 29s	Jeff From Accounting	♥ 0	I can't really say anything that everyone else hasn't said already, but this was awesome. I've always wanted a game where I can show off my fast typing ability but still have something beyond just typing, and this definitely did it. The sound design in particular was really satisfying, and was what really brought it to the next level for me. The gameplay was fantastic, don't get me wrong, but there was something immensely satisfying about the shooting sound effects. Really great job with this you guys.
Apr 27 17:55:10	16h 59m	The Mad Bulleteer	♥ 0	The difficulty progression on this was perfect. I'm not awesome at multitasking so I didn't do too well, but it was still lots of fun. Nicely done!
Apr 27 18:07:16	12m 06s	Idle Shooter	♥ 0	This was super satisfying to play. The gameplay is really solid and feels addicting right from the beginning with upgrading how many coins you can get. The hitboxes on the skulls though felt a little small compared to their sprites though, I could usually shoot straight through the top of their head or the bottom of their head. Only shots directly at the middle of the skulls were counted, although it didn't seem to be as big of a problem on the larger slower skulls. If I had any other feedback, it'd be to taper off the high end frequencies for the coin sound, because after I upgraded the amount of money a few times and was getting tons of coins constantly, it was a lot of really high pitched noise all at once. Overall though I actually liked it a lot. Nice job!!
Apr 29 22:51:27	52h 44m	Definition of a Ghuest	♥ 2	I really like this interpretation of the theme, that's really creative. I definitely felt uneasy playing it, which is what I like in most of the games I play. The wireframe part of the game was really creepy. Well done to all involved!
