Apr 25 15:26:29		Ludum Dare Review Meta Game	♥ 1	A nice simple risk-reward mechanism. A few bad rolls and you're forced to risk the sharks. I like it.
Apr 25 15:44:51	18m 22s	Yet Another Turn Based Bullet Hell	♥ 0	Great design! Might just be me but it could do with an easier setting to build it up a bit, I found it quite challenging < a good thing though. I agree with some of the other comments that a bit of sound would've added a lot to this, just some low bit synth effects from bfxr would do the trick. It's a shame you didn't have time to hand craft a few levels (as is the way with Ludum Dare). I found a few of the solutions involved moving a square, then waiting for 10-15 turns, then moving a few more squares. Perhaps the proc gen algorithm could be tweaked to reject certain level designs if the solution involves sitting around watching for most of the level. But considering everything, a really great game!
Apr 25 16:07:13	22m 22s	Think Hockey	♥ 0	This is excellent. Best game I've played so far. I used to love Subbuteo, you can get some real tactical depth with turn based team games. At first I found it quite tricky, not being able to tackle then pass in the same turn, but quickly worked out strategy to tackle and then block with other players. Very satisfying!
Apr 25 16:16:32	9m 19s	Danger of the violent woods	♥ 1	The music and graphical style really help to give this a slightly comedic but dark mood. Very different from a lot of the other games on here.
Apr 25 16:21:28	4m 56s	土星の台頭 - Saturn Rising	♥ 1	Really interesting interpretation of the theme. It quite follow the perspective, it appear top down but one of your troop falls across the screen - it would've been handy if that guy could've jumped on the blocks built by the block builder, to help move around. A great concept, you should develop it further.
Apr 25 16:36:10	14m 42s	Don't text and fly	♥ 0	Haha, I crashed so many times. If only they had auto-pilot or proximity sensors in space, because I am a lousy multitasker. This is an excellent take on the theme, really enjoyed it, perhaps a little too hard for me though.
Apr 25 16:49:23	13m 13s	The Sparrow Served Danger	♥ 1	This was well written, but it feels like you had a grand game planned and not enough time to execute. I am king of scope creep so I totally understand, but for LD the mantra really is "simplify simplify simplify". I would like to see more, especially of the writing.
Apr 25 17:12:28	23m 05s	A Tale of Two Towers	♥ 2	You might call it programmer art but your faces are great. Really interesting take on the theme, enjoyed it a lot!
Apr 25 17:26:22	13m 54s	Rogueclick	♥ 0	I usually bounce right off ASCII roguelikes but mainly because of the learning curve. I found this quite enjoyable. Some simple visual feedback when you click a button would really help - to indicate you're damaging an enemy - at first I thought the game had crashed. I really liked the map though, would've been nice to see something bigger, even if the exploring remained automated.
Apr 25 17:32:26	6m 04s	Nuclear Fission	♥ 1	In communist Russia the fish catch you.
Apr 25 17:38:40	6m 14s	Plane Fishing	♥ 1	Your fish are super cute, and the audio samples did fit the aesthetic well.
Apr 25 17:46:19	7m 39s	Felocity	♥ 1	Gah, I wish I was better at this. The music is awesome - I would've liked to get further just to hear the rest of the track. Great artwork as well. You have a lucky cat.
Apr 25 18:00:39	14m 20s	(Car)ds	♥ 0	I managed to keep it going for about three minutes. Interesting combination of playing mechanics. I reckon you should develop this further, could be quite a cool game with some AI opponents and an actually race.
Apr 25 21:24:06	3h 23m	Tilt Legends	♥ 1	This is a great combination of genres. It's really cool when you hit the ball off the screen, it zooms out and you move to the next set of paddles. I sort of felt the timing was a bit off on the paddles, but that might've been my browser being slow (or even just me being bad).
Apr 25 21:31:58	7m 52s	Type Skater	♥ 0	219 points! I'm usually okay a typing but I sort of panicked every time I went to do a trick. Nice idea, good combination of gameplay mechanics. A little bit of audio would've help with the scatter mood though.
Apr 25 21:37:57	5m 59s	I am Tree	♥ 1	This is definitely the most unusual game I've played so far, well done!
Apr 25 21:52:09	14m 12s	MULLIGUN	♥ 3	This game is just excellent. The deck building really works, you should develop this further!
Apr 25 21:56:15	4m 06s	M3 DEFENSE	♥ 1	Nice pairing of game genres. I bit of sound would go a long way though.
Apr 25 22:08:05	11m 50s	Red Shirt Engineer	♥ 0	I love logic gate games, this is great combination of gameplay elements, really enjoyed it.
Apr 27 13:52:10	39h 44m	Tetra Dungeon	♥ 1	This is probably the best interpretation of the theme I've seen. Fantastic idea! Dungeon Keeper versus Tetris. I know it's part of the charm, but I think decoupling the block controls from the hero controls would retain the challenge but make it a little less likely to lose due to the stack getting too high while you're desperately trying to manoeuvre around a mob.
Apr 27 14:21:58	29m 48s	Core Dunk	♥ 1	This is a really great concept, and about as intuitive as assembly gets. I really enjoyed it, but I am a programmer, and from what I've seen a lot of non-programmers bounce off these sorts of games. It's sad because there's nothing more satisfying than coding an elegant solution. Bold choice. Thanks for the game!
Apr 27 15:14:05	52m 07s	Mortal Keybat	♥ 1	Fun game. I really liked the music, very suitable for a 90s fighting game!
Apr 27 15:17:53	3m 48s	golf hell	♥ 1	Nice idea, controls worked pretty well once I worked out what they were. Could've done with just a few instructions to get passed that. I liked the graphics though.
Apr 27 15:25:21	7m 28s	Strategia Soccer	♥ 3	Really cool game. I was always loved a bit of Subbuteo so this was perfect for me. Did take me a little while to work out when it would kick and when it would move, and maybe if you started with a few more players there'd be a bit more strategy to it. Other than that it's great, well done!
