Apr 24 10:34:06 Beet Farmer ♥ 1 Very cool. Lots of fun!
Apr 24 10:35:49 1m 43s Good Hamster — Dead Hamster ♥ 4 So, so silly. Love it.
Apr 24 10:39:56 4m 07s Super Sweet Crispy Crunchy Crunch DX ( the final fight edition ) ♥ 0 Great art and a fun premise. Very awesome.
Apr 24 10:56:30 16m 34s BASEBALL in HELL ♥ 1 This is a lot of fun. Tough game but nicely rewarding!
Apr 24 10:58:59 2m 29s Snail and Salt ♥ 1 I really enjoyed this. I feel like I could actually get better at it with time, so there's replayability there!
Apr 24 11:02:12 3m 13s MASHED ♥ 0 Great use of the theme and the big silly graphics are swish!
Apr 24 11:05:51 3m 39s Star Brawler ♥ 1 Clever! I had a lot of fun playing this and could see this being developed into a full title. Well done!
Apr 24 11:07:30 1m 39s fPONG ♥ 0 Lots of fun. Not sure these are incompatible genres as per the theme, but who cares? This game would work great in VR!
Apr 24 11:11:26 3m 56s The Colossal Carrot Caper ♥ 0 Really awesome GFX and an all-round fun-as-hell game to play. You should be very proud of this.
Apr 24 11:14:41 3m 15s Ce n'est pas un jeu de pointer-et-cliquer ♥ 1 This took me a while, but I finally solved it! Great ambience and a very quirky entry, but well-executed. Great work!
Apr 24 11:19:22 4m 41s Super Slime Slasher Ultra ♥ 3 This is a silly silly game and I had a lot of fun with it. It's surprising how well polished the candy-coloured art is, given the 72 hours available to complete this entry - it feels a little bit like Adventure Time, which is no bad thing. Definitely one of favourite games so far.
Apr 24 11:23:01 3m 39s SurviFarm ♥ 2 Survival and Farming Sim... Great idea, though it played out more like Don't Starve. That's not a bad thing! Also, your low-poly graphics are to die for. Great game, rated!
Apr 24 11:33:42 10m 41s Kinbaku ♥ 2 I enjoyed this a fair bit. The art was my favourite aspect, but I guess if I had to pick a 'least favourite' aspect, it would be that the gameplay could do with a little more balancing. I felt like I should've died way more than I did... Unless I'm just amazing at your game, which seems very unlikely. Great game and good work!
Apr 24 11:37:26 3m 44s Shipwrecked on Robot Island ♥ 1 I really like the atmosphere in this game, I feel like if there was more of it I would just keep on playing and exploring, as the graphics are absolutely top-notch. Took me a while to complete - some of those keys were in hard-to-find places! A really competent entry, though I'm not so sure how 'incompatible' your themes are with one another. But who cares? Great work, rated.
Apr 24 11:49:39 12m 13s Monstrously Hunky ♥ 1 I had a lot of fun with this, trying out all the different monsters and reading through the silly date lines. Turns out I'm a 100% match with Shikbak, The Ender of Underwear. Figures... Really great use of the theme and a solid LD entry. I'd have loved to go out on some proper dates with your monsters, like to restaurants, ice-curling, etc. But how much can anyone put together in 72 hours, eh? Awesome work!
Apr 24 11:52:17 2m 38s Flowdrive ♥ 0 This is a pretty solid entry! Not sure if these genres are truly incompatible, but then perhaps it's to your credit that your combination of puzzle and top-down driving has been executed so smoothly. Great work!
Apr 24 12:08:30 16m 13s Sloppy Dungeon ♥ 1 Great concept and hard as nails to beat! A little more polish on the animation would've been welcome, but you've sold the idea pretty well and I think that unlike a lot of other entries, this one genuinely blends two incompatible genres and does it well. Great job!
Apr 24 12:10:14 1m 44s One-Sec Bullet-Hell ♥ 1 Slick game, with very pretty graphics... like somebody set off fireworks on a very foggy evening! The TB element works really well.
Apr 24 12:12:09 1m 55s FishX Brawl ♥ 2 Took a while to download and play, but once I got it up and running, I found it really fun to play. The procedural physics is always a winner when it's done well... and you've certainly done it well here!
Apr 24 12:15:04 2m 55s Evil Bunnies ♥ 2 The concept is great, even if the gameplay's a little clunky. I'm pretty sure those rabbits cheated a few times! It may give me bunny-themed nightmares for a little while...
Apr 24 12:46:24 31m 20s UNchessTOMIZER ♥ 0 Really love the juxtaposition of standard old-school chess game with hand-drawn cards. Not sure what the theme mash-up is exactly... sort of strategy vs proc-gen? Perhaps a roguelike map would've sold the theme a little better. But still, a great, fun game that maintains a surprising amount of strategic gameplay, despite the crazy aspects!
Apr 24 12:47:37 1m 13s Bob Ross Adventure ♥ 2 In this game, there are no mistakes. Just happy little accidents! Hilarious use of the theme, Bob would be proud!
Apr 24 12:52:56 5m 19s Broken Space Fish Shooter ♥ 2 I really think this is one of the smarter LD entries that I've played, despite the (certainly deliberate) cheap gfx and sound. It was a lot of fun trying out the different combinations of 'automation' to get my fish (?) to hold its own against the swarm. I would've loved to see an expansion of the core mechanic, perhaps by introducing different enemy behaviours to force the player to adopt other control combinations. Very clever and a worthy entry.
Apr 24 12:57:31 4m 35s Crane Command ♥ 1 This is a really great concept and you executed it very well, even if it is a little unfinished. I love the gfx and I got a real feeling of consequence for each of the strategies I tried. Very well done!
Apr 24 13:09:50 12m 19s Swap Swamp ♥ 1 This is super-clever. Highly innovative and it really blends the two genres very well. It's easy to see how this design would lead to some really diverse tactics. You might be sitting on a gold mine with this. Develop it into a full-blown mobile game and blow all of those other hum-drum match games out of the water!
Apr 24 13:27:02 17m 12s SmackPaint! Combat Painting with Ross Bob ♥ 2 I feel like I've been waiting for this game my whole life. Combat plus painting equals Double Therapy! I suppose a little better control wouldn't go amiss... though I doubt it would improve my terrible painting skills! Really awesome use of the theme and some nice little touches. Great work!
Apr 24 13:31:54 4m 52s INSiTU ♥ 1 I was really intrigued by this entry, so I got stuck in and quickly found it to be surprisingly ingenious. Actually quite tricky to get your head around when to use which perspective... but that's what makes it fun! Great entry and love the pixel art and moody intro.
Apr 24 13:34:21 2m 27s GuitarPicks ♥ 1 Love the art style and the gameplay is pretty slick. Not sure these are truly 'incompatible' genres, but that's not really the point. This is a great piece of work.
Apr 24 13:39:04 4m 43s Color Coder ♥ 1 Smart little game, though it doesn't necessarily fall under 'incompatible genres'. Some tight gameplay but I guess there may have been other ways to explore what is essentially a really good core mechanic. Also, really enjoyed the EGA retro graphics, right up my street!
Apr 24 13:40:30 1m 26s Golf N' Grenades ♥ 1 Great use of the theme, you've made golf sooooo much more interesting. Why can't this exist in the real world? Excellent graphics too.
Apr 24 13:44:01 3m 31s Misty Night ♥ 1 A really pretty game that has atmosphere in heaps. As some above have mentioned, the timing in the rhythm aspects feels off at times, but it doesn't mar the overall experience too much. Great seeing a solid vision like this come to life. Very awesome and the music is also brilliant.
Apr 24 13:54:38 10m 37s Rude Bear Rogueolution ♥ 1 Okay, this is a little mad. And brilliant. I actually found it pretty tough, but then I'm terrible at rhythm games. Pretty solid but I got through to the epic boss battle and managed to beat him. I guess a lot of repeat play would be required to get all those combos down, but kudos for even getting them all in there in the first place. Rude Bear is back, baby!
Apr 24 14:10:58 16m 20s Honest Dan's Trout ♥ 1 A smart blend between two classic games... though not necessarily 'incompatible'. Bugs aside, I really liked the 1-bit graphics style (I did the same 80s palette for my own - very different - game). I wonder if different control layouts would work, such as controlling both paddle and piece rotation with the mouse simultaneously, to make it a bit tougher. Either way, very impressed with this. Makes you wonder why no one came up with it before. Great work!
Apr 24 14:14:54 3m 56s Rogue Crush ♥ 1 Very smart mashup. I had a lot of fun with this, the graphics and audio really sell the idea well. I could see this scaling up to a very competitive mobile title. Run with it!
Apr 24 14:16:03 1m 09s Dancemazing ♥ 1 Hilarious game, made me laugh so hard I woke up the dog.
Apr 24 14:21:41 5m 38s A Kid's Nightmare ♥ 2 A little difficult to find my way around, but I got into it eventually. What lurks behind is a genuinely creepy experience. The kid's perspective really brings a sense of vulnerability to it that you don't see in a lot of other games. Really good work.
Apr 24 14:31:44 10m 03s Age Of Asteroids ♥ 1 It's bonkers how much detail you managed to fit into this game in 72 hours. I'm going to have to come back to this one to fully digest it, but at first glance it's a really intricate and cool game. Really well done, I'll be coming back to play more of this after I get through the slew of 2D platformers...
Apr 24 14:48:21 16m 37s Pinboy-an RPG+ Pinball game ♥ 1 Very pretty game and I think you've hit on something here with great commercial potential, to match its artistry. A little clunky gameplay here and there doesn't distract from the overall feel of what comes across as a fairly polished game, with a well-executed concept. Great job!
Apr 24 14:52:18 3m 57s Slide or Die ♥ 1 Really like the concept and the graphics are swish! Getting the controls to do what I wanted felt genuinely like it was a matter of skill, rather than to do with the way they are designed. That's the sign of a really competent game - when the player is challenged, but it always feels fair. Great work!
Apr 24 14:54:20 2m 02s Unbelievabubble ♥ 1 Great mechanics and the artwork is approaching AAA work! Great use of the theme too. Very awesome.
Apr 24 15:02:52 8m 32s Lost in Spacetime ♥ 1 This is actually a really great idea - an exploration single-screen-swapping adventure, with an Asteroids control mechanic. I suppose it could be made (a lot) harder by adding Thust-like gravity to it, or power-ups that adjust the player physics. I'm only coming up with ideas though, because your underlying game is inspiring. Keep it retro!
Apr 24 15:06:57 4m 05s Soccer Racing ♥ 1 Hugely polished for a LD entry, love the overall aesthetic approach too. I don't know if it's more soccer than it is racing, but I know I like it. You should develop this title further, the world needs a new eSport!
Apr 24 15:21:48 14m 51s POLITICS VS GAMES LOL ♥ 1 What starts out as a basic shooter soon gives way to a maddening number of changes to the creative direction. You can almost feel the presence of some irritating critic, standing over your shoulder making constant edits to the political correctness as you progress. By the end, the game has certainly made its point and the gameplay choices available to you have been reduced to all but binary. Not so much a game as a withering social commentary. And all the better for it. Thumbs up.
Apr 24 15:42:15 20m 27s Sword step ♥ 1 Awesome, you've either deliberately or unwittingly placed Samurai fighting against a Japanese flag background! Either way, cool concept and a lot of fun to play.
Apr 24 15:50:53 8m 38s The Iron Front ♥ 0 I liked this, even though I know it's probably not everyone's cup of tea. Due to the nature of the game, it feels a little like a hacking game and that's no bad thing. After a bit of playing, I started to get my head around the different tactics possible. At its core, this is a great sim, if you're willing to put the initial time into it. Great work.
Apr 24 15:54:08 3m 15s A Tale of Comedy and Tragedy ♥ 2 Cool little game. I liked the dialogue and the mechanics, as well as the vignetted lighting. Good job.
Apr 24 16:20:59 26m 51s Remote Bot ♥ 0 I love the art for this, it feels like a hacking sim but with this awesome ASCII platformer interface on the top. Very dear to my heart. Great job on this.
Apr 24 16:26:33 5m 34s Get Off My Farm! ♥ 1 Once you get this up and running, it's pretty good. The blend between FPS and farming sim could be a little more balanced (e.g. with more 'farming' options to really expand the resource management side of things), but on the whole you tend to be more engaged by the competitive aspects of the death match. Good stuff.
Apr 24 16:32:34 6m 01s Gone Clicking ♥ 1 This is a great looking game; I really like the backgrounds and the art assets. The gameplay and the rhythm sections work quite well, together, though they feel like two separate mini-games rather than a single experience. Still a lot of fun though! There are a few glitches here and there with the graphics (button down images etc), but being a UE4 dev myself, its easy to understand how these were missed - UE's UI system can be a pain in the neck at the best of times. Otherwise a great little game that does what it says on the tin. Good job!
Apr 24 16:48:17 15m 43s Build The Road Jack ♥ 2 This is a really great idea, executed very well. The graphics are awesome and the gameplay is fluid - you clearly spent a lot of time focusing on these aspects. I would have liked to see more of the 'Snake' aspects, such as making it more difficult for the player to lay out new tracks without 'bumping' into previously laid ones, but I realise that having the third dimension makes this tricky indeed. Plus locking it to one plane (2.5D) would make the racing less fun, so the dilemma is appreciated. Either way, a really polished and competent racer. Great work.
Apr 24 16:50:37 2m 20s Spiky ♥ 3 Really lovely graphics and I like the idea behind this. A lot more polish than one would expect for a game jam entry. I'm keeping this one on my PC for a while; I'll be coming back to it for sure!
Apr 24 17:32:19 41m 42s I bet that your CATS look good in the dance floor ♥ 1 Wow, this game came with a free seizure! Kidding, it's marvellous. By the end, I had the dance floor packed with crazy kittens. I was half-expect Nyan Cat to make an appearance. Clearly it was his night off. A really compelling game and the mechanics are executed beautifully. Well done.
Apr 24 17:36:32 4m 13s The Waiting Room ♥ 1 Checked on it once or twice since I opened this game earlier today. Still waiting. In this respect I suppose the design is a resounding success and an interesting diversion from the usual, quick-fire popcorn-type games. I want to know what happens next, so I'm leaving this on. Intriguing!
Apr 24 17:42:07 5m 35s Spaceloop ♥ 1 I had a lot of fun playing this. Sort of like Jetpac meets Flappy Bird. There were times when I was leaping around in the void that I thought I'd gone off the map and broke your game... but then there were still some stars to collect! The 'Loop' feature is a great addition, I needed a few goes to complete it. A pretty competent entry and one you should be proud of.
Apr 24 18:08:11 26m 04s Super Antithesis Kart ♥ 3 This is basically my favourite game from LD41 so far. The walking feels a little too slow, but then this game is all about not being in any hurry. Very good job, really emotive.
Apr 24 19:08:46 1h 00m Falling Labyrinth ♥ 1 I really enjoyed the mechanics in this game and I think you've fit the theme perfectly with the mashup of dungeon crawler and Tetris-like. Also, really feeling those monochrome graphics (like my own LD entry). Really great work, I'm keeping this one installed.
Apr 24 19:14:14 5m 28s Dropzone Mars ♥ 1 Really enjoyed this. Frantic action with that gorgeous EGA palette. It feels like it has more in common with a tower defence than city builder, but either way it's a great little game that I'll be coming back to. Great work!
Apr 25 09:32:20 14h 18m Street Chess ♥ 1 I was lucky enough to see the early version of this during development over the weekend. Beyond the insanity of the premise, the pun-heavy story really drives home the theme and adds a lot of tongue-in-cheek gravitas. The mechanics could give rise to all kinds of possibilities, such as multiple advancing pawns in lock-step, symmetrical moves and of course it could be made infinitely more difficult at the press of a button, but how much is anyone going to get into a game in 72 hours? This game's great, it should be the next big eSport.
Apr 25 14:42:33 5h 10m SKYWOOOD PIER ♥ 3 Absolutely beautiful, great ambience and full of intrigue. This game had me hooked from the moment I realised I had no idea what was going on. There's a roguelike feel to the generated layouts that keeps you guessing what's around the next corner and the music and audio bring this great feeling of space to the whole piece. Even falling to my (presumable) death felt like... coming home. Really awesome game.
Apr 25 18:54:49 4h 12m Shutin ♥ 2 Absolutely excellent. As a man known for his work with shaders, I can say that the graphics here are impressive. Some good writing in this one too and you're right: It's pretty close to real life, i.e. a horror story filled with never-ending chores and requirements. In that, you've made a great game and a social commentary at the same time. Great stuff!
Apr 25 19:01:08 6m 19s Scarry ♥ 2 This is really great, I wasn't expecting to need a microphone! Actually pretty tough to play in parts and I suppose that with further development, you could get that balancing perfect. But as it stands this is a funky little game and I love the sharp graphics. The audio really works with it all too. Good job!
Apr 25 19:06:46 5m 38s CONFESSIONAL ♥ 1 A really impressive feat to get the graphics looking this good in 72 hours, that's a lot of normal maps! The horror elements play out really well and there's a genuinely unnerving feel throughout. So mission accomplished! Great stuff.
Apr 25 19:09:37 2m 51s Overcharged ♥ 1 Loving the minimal graphics and I think that with a little more polish this could make a solid commercial game. I personally found the physics to be pretty good - it's always tricky to get it realistic but playable when you're working with radial gravity, so my hat is off to you for pulling this off. Great work.
Apr 25 19:13:52 4m 15s Between Dimensions ♥ 1 I think it's great how you've managed to fit a platformer and an FPS into a browser game. It was a little tricky to work out why I would need to be in first person view at all at first, but then I saw where you were going with it. Really good work, even though I was terrible at it!
Apr 25 19:15:55 2m 03s Tower Deck Furenzy ♥ 2 A clever take on the two genres individually, but then combining them like this seems like you might be sitting on something with real commercial value if you feel like taking it further. Lots of fun!
Apr 25 19:20:16 4m 21s Acid ♥ 1 Good game, this. And quite a polished title for such a short timespan. Great job!
Apr 25 19:23:32 3m 16s Shepherd and Dog ♥ 1 I feel like a lot of thought went into this game. Beyond the smart design, the art and characters really gel, making this feel like a full-blown indie title. Controlling two characters simultaneously is always going to be tricky, but I'm sure a lot of players are far up to the task than I was. Audio's great, maybe could've done with some music. But other than that, gorgeous game. Really great!
Apr 25 19:26:02 2m 30s Super Ice-Cream Roller Ultra ♥ 1 Beautiful game, love that aesthetic. Many try it and few get it right, but you seem to have nailed it. A little more space to explore would've made the game a bit easier, but then the level of difficulty may be what you were going for. Glad to hear some great sound in there too, rating up!
Apr 25 22:37:50 3h 11m Alchemist Adventure ♥ 0 This is a really solid entry, with lots of polish - especially in light of many of the other roguelikes submitted for this LD. Add to that the fact that this is all the work of one person and I think this is in my my top ten. Really awesome work.
Apr 26 10:39:34 12h 01m Torrejón Love Story ♥ 3 Wow, this was an ambitious game, with pieces of multiple genres coming in from all angles!. Some of the aspects work better than others, but I think on the whole you've managed to build a pretty cohesive player experience. For a first-time jam, you should be proud of this!
Apr 26 10:42:20 2m 46s Cocaine McBain - A Farm Rush Adventure ♥ 1 Definitely more runner than farming sim, but who cares as you have pulled off a charmingly elegant scroller with really great graphics and audio. This looks almost polished enough to go straight to market. Very good job!
Apr 26 10:44:29 2m 09s Card Mayor ♥ 0 Amazing that you managed to pull off something so ambitious in such a short space of time. The old-school simcity-esque graphics really do the game justice and I think the card game aspects work very well indeed. You made the incompatible compatible! Very cool game.
Apr 26 10:49:06 4m 37s Ball-dash Arcade ♥ 0 This is a competent little puzzle platformer that works really well in multiplayer. A little more time on the graphics would help sell the experience better, I suppose. You can keep that cool retro vibe, while updating to some modern techniques, such as sprite normals, etc. Controls felt a little clunky at times, but that's nothing that can't be addressed with a little more time and polish. You should definitely develop this further, as it shows a lot of promise. Good stuff!
Apr 26 10:51:51 2m 45s Jammer Tank ♥ 1 Some wonderfully executed mechanics here. Those physics-based firing and jumping interactions are often tricky to pull off, but you've done a great job of it. It feels fun and never frustrating, like some other physics platformers can. Also, love that Wonderboy-esque flat graphical style. Really great job; develop this further!
Apr 26 10:54:46 2m 55s Sneak To The Rhythm ♥ 1 I thought the graphics were really fitting for this. You've done the right thing in working to your strengths, which has produced a simply yet charming rhythm game, with some well thought out puzzle elements. I'm usually terrible at these kinds of games but I got "Smooth Criminal"... so I guess that's good, right? Great job.
Apr 26 10:58:05 3m 19s Space Captain Rodriguez ♥ 2 Great little entry, this. Some smart mechanics in the way the baddies' attacks are based on the player choice. Really good stuff :)
Apr 26 11:00:16 2m 11s "You Sunk My Scrabble-Ship" ♥ 1 This is highly theme-worthy, what a way to combine two definitively 'incompatible' genres. Good game!
Apr 26 11:06:33 6m 17s Eyes on the Prize ♥ 2 Great vibe and aesthetic in this game. It plays really well in multiplayer. Sure the crafting didn't quite work how I expected, but this was a highly ambitious game in any respect and how much can anyone do in 72 hours? Really good stuff.
Apr 26 11:08:38 2m 05s Rainy Day ♥ 1 A good, solid little tabletop game, that mashes the genre with an idler pretty well. Graphics are fair and the audio is hilarious. Well done.
Apr 26 11:10:17 1m 39s Deep Space ♥ 0 Very pretty and the mechanics work really well. I don't see the theme being used for this game, but the theme isn't everything! Great work.
Apr 26 11:19:41 9m 24s Controller Controller ♥ 2 This is a great game and the concept is a bit bonkers. The graphical style is cool, sort of retro EGA-ish and very fitting. Music and audio are also really good. I guess a little more player guidance wouldn't go amiss, but once you get the hang of it, this is a solid title. Oh and don't worry about 'Mr. No-Linux' above ^^ - he's been telling everyone off, including for my own game. Great work, you should definitely consider developing this further.
Apr 26 11:22:36 2m 55s Idle Escape Room ♥ 1 Hahaha. This is a really funny take on the theme, these are **definitely** incompatible genres. Great idea and well-executed. Good job.
Apr 26 11:26:05 3m 29s Space Drifter TD ♥ 1 This is a great entry. Once I got my head around the controls, this played really well. I suppose it could easily be expanded to provide a more puzzle-like aspect to which towers require power etc, which would help flesh out that aspect of the theme a little better. But hell, you made a space-sim for a game jam. Sold.
Apr 26 11:32:49 6m 44s Dirty Pink ♥ 1 Funkiest game on LD41! Nothing makes a game more sexy than dirty dirty synthwave. The graphics are adorable and the gameplay is solid. Also, the 'blockchain' aspect is a funny twist, very in-the-now. Great game, you should be proud of this.
Apr 26 11:36:55 4m 06s Poker-Man : Arcade + Poker ♥ 1 Really great idea to blend these two genres together, and with such gusto! The gfx fit perfectly, as does the music. You might be sitting on a goldmine here. Develop it further!
Apr 26 11:46:26 9m 31s Super Hyperspace Rythm Plus Ultra ♥ 1 Beautiful game and the music is awesome. Well done.
Apr 26 11:48:04 1m 38s Feed Me ♥ 2 Really great mashup of these two genres. The graphics are absolutely on point and the whole thing has a very spooky tone. Well done.
Apr 26 11:49:42 1m 38s Command Line Hero ♥ 1 This provided me with a frantic experience. I was typing for my life! You've put a great amount of thought into making it difficult but not frustrating. Great job.
Apr 26 11:50:43 1m 01s Culinary Creature Combat ♥ 2 I love the crossover here and the graphics and music are very fitting. Really good solid entry!
Apr 26 12:17:11 26m 28s Fish for Speed ♥ 0 Great design and a fun playing experience. Good stuff.
Apr 26 15:45:07 3h 27m Jeff From Accounting ♥ 0 Great game, the art is top-notch and the gameplay is fluid. Really great entry!
Apr 29 13:37:26 69h 52m Good Fighter ♥ 1 Absolutely bonkers. The rhythm aspects work really well, though a little tough in places. But that doesn't distract from the charming graphics and the music works really well too. Great job.
Apr 29 13:39:18 1m 52s Rose-Coloured Dungeon Life ♥ 2 This is surprisingly polished for a LD entry, the character designs particularly are very well realised. I loved the dialogue in this, the writing is great. Awesome work.
Apr 29 13:42:47 3m 29s Spacewhale ♥ 2 Great feel and some excellent balancing. I found it particularly hard, but then this is not much more difficult than a run through FTL. I really enjoyed trying to keep all of my resources balanced, though I failed a number of times and ended up with too many people to feed. I feel like I could genuinely get better at this with time though, the artwork and music fit perfectly. Great work.
Apr 29 13:47:13 4m 26s Tetriphys: The Thing That Should Not Be ♥ 1 The real humour in this game for me was in seeing how my strategies would fall apart on me, no matter how well I tried to plan it out: I guess we can thank the physics for this and I'm sure this was an intentional aspect of the game's design. Frustratingly fun and the audio works really well. Good job!
Apr 29 13:49:01 1m 48s Education to survive ♥ 1 The simplistic graphics really help to see this experience, with mistakes hilariously punished, but never frustratingly so. Really enjoyed this.
Apr 29 13:52:17 3m 16s Roll Playing Game ♥ 1 This is a very pretty game that will do well with just a little polish. Bearing in mind that this was done in 48 hours and not 72, I found it to be really well realised and the game idea is simple and fun. Great work!
Apr 29 13:55:55 3m 38s Wizsnooks ♥ 4 This is a pretty unique title - I've not seen anything else like this at LD41. Those ball characters are like the Madball 1980s toys come to life in a game! Really good level of polish and the physics felt realistic enough to remain fair. All of those powerups just added to fun!
Apr 29 13:58:43 2m 48s Piloteer ♥ 1 Loving the 8-bit style graphics, I feel like with a little more polish this could make a very promising mobile game. Great work.
Apr 29 14:00:51 2m 08s NIGHT CLICKER ♥ 2 This one is genuinely spooky, some smart ideas that work both really well together and keep well with the LD41 theme. Be still, my beating heart!
Apr 29 14:02:47 1m 56s Ascension ♥ 1 After a few goes, I started to get the hang of this. The graphics are very charming and the frantic gameplay really brings a sense of enjoyment to the game. Great work.
Apr 29 14:13:19 10m 32s Just bullet: A turn-based hell ♥ 1 Had a lot of fun with this, the graphics are adequate and in fact work well to not distract the player from the core gameplay mechanics. It's great trying to plot your moves while looking ahead to see what's coming, though obviously it gets a bit crazy trying to look more than four moves ahead. I guess that's the point though! Great job.
Apr 29 14:15:03 1m 44s FishOut ♥ 2 Some really amazing graphics in this, how on earth did you get all of that done in 72 hours? Actually, I don't want to know, it's your secret sauce. Charmingly brilliant, scoring this one high.
Apr 29 14:50:05 35m 02s Toaster Boy ♥ 1 This is really incredible I have students twice your age who can't pull off something as polished as this. The graphics are charming, the mechanics are solid and you should definitely keep developing this. Perhaps a way to get around objects that you're currently colliding with. I got stuck once or twice, but I'm sure this is easy enough to fix up going forward. Really well done, hugely impressed.
