Apr 30 02:03:48		Highway To Hell: First Person Rally	♥ 0	Your games always have a distinct look to them, I'm keen to see how this graphic style evolves along with your engine, nice work! On that note, massive props for using your own engine. The game itself I think could have had the camera locked around the yaw axis and only have the player pitch the camera up and down, maybe not, perhaps I am missing some reason for the camera controls being like they are. That aside, the best part of the game for me was sliding all over the place and drifting the car sideways up the top of the sloped walls, this felt bad-ass.
Apr 30 02:17:57	14m 09s	Stealthy Frickin' Ninjas	♥ 1	Similarly to the others, I played around for a bit and but couldn't really get the gameplay. Though I did win after making a few units :) Art assets look like someone put in a some quality time, props on that! Message me back if you release another version and I'll give it a go and re-rate.
Apr 30 02:29:48	11m 51s	TBFTWorLD41	♥ 1	Men betting on sea gulls ey? Haha. Interesting fusion of genres, quality graphics and sound work. Gameplay needs to have more well-defined objectives and perhaps a win condition.
Apr 30 02:43:12	13m 24s	Guardian of the Depth	♥ 1	Mechanically I liked the game idea, nicely done on that. I couldn't get the bet amount to increase using the arrow keys though, message me if I am missing something and I will re-rate. As others have said, sound would be nice too (look up bosca ceoil perhaps).
Apr 30 02:56:47	13m 35s	Someone Is Wrong On The Internet	♥ 3	Well done to the team, UI in particular was impressively polished for an LD entry.
Apr 30 03:14:18	17m 31s	MazeInvaders	♥ 0	Not sure if it was intentional but the audio loop that didn't actually seamlessly loop certainly added to the madness of it (not necessarily in a good way, haha). The monster who slides along with arms outstretched actually did give me a bit of a fright haha - so good work on that. As others have said collision with the coins is undesirable. Also, the baked shadows are wrong in many places, this could be fixed with some settings changed in a re-bake I think. Gameplay-wise you may as well have made it auto-reload and made some visual indicator for an enemy being hit (a blood particle?). All in all though, good fusion of genres.
Apr 30 03:25:43	11m 25s	Dachshund League	♥ 2	A lot to like here. Some good polish, for example, the particle fx on the ball and scoring. Rocket jumping was a nice touch. Mechanically the game played and worked well. I think it might be interesting to try the rocket trail having a push effect on it so it can nudge the ball for glancing shots. In terms of critique, I think the explosion sound could be have a filter run over it to soften it a little. Lastly, of course, great use of theme.
Apr 30 03:40:21	14m 38s	Rose-Coloured Dungeon Life	♥ 2	Art, impressive job by the team. Fusion of genres, good. Nice polish all round on assets as well: sfx, music, ui, death screens, many dialogue options, animation fx, backgrounds. Only let down was the combat, I found it too sharp a difficulty curve to get past much of the starting content, which is a shame, really - the game is very nice in other regards.
Apr 30 04:47:19	1h 06m	VRn't	♥ 3	Great use of a challenging theme. It gets hectic quickly, which was great. The music was great, how'd you do it?
Apr 30 05:07:59	20m 40s	GOLDFISH SIMULATOR - DÉJÀ VU	♥ 1	I liked the level and all its little details. As others have mentioned I lost the game seemingly for no reason at times.
Apr 30 05:19:27	11m 28s	Battle Z Defense	♥ 0	Game-play worked well, nicely done. I think some sound effects/music needed to be levelled to be comfortable to listen to together, search Adobe Audition ITU-R for an example of how to get comfortable volume levels for any sound.
Apr 30 05:27:33	8m 06s	Dinosaur Dating Simulator	♥ 1	I may not be very good at dating, but I'm very handy at killing elephants, apparently.
Apr 30 05:32:05	4m 32s	Rockin' Horse	♥ 1	I love seeing something completely different, the original music was a joy too. Well done sir. Once the song got a bit faster though I found I lost the beat at times.
Apr 30 05:46:35	14m 30s	Dead man's hand	♥ 1	Good game, good really take this one further with more cards I think. I did manage to get the game into a broken state where I had enough AP to play cards but simply couldn't (could only end turn). Anyway, good entry!
Apr 30 05:56:31	9m 56s	'Lil Lost Squashy	♥ 1	Game looks great, a straightforward but well executed fusion of genres and all the assets are of a high quality too. The game-play for the continued jumping sections is a bit tough for me though. Also no PLAY command? Why not, right? :)
Apr 30 06:11:05	14m 34s	EXTREME EXTERMINATION DEFENSE	♥ 1	Excellent. This is what an LD game should be. Fun, with some mechanics that feel great to use. Squish them bugs.
Apr 30 06:19:26	8m 21s	Tennis Hero	♥ 0	Visuals are well done. Especially the effect when you hit the ball (stretching the ball + screen shake + particle effect) is quality stuff. I felt it was a little difficult to aim the return shots. Excellent compo entry.
Apr 30 06:44:14	24m 48s	Golf with Guns	♥ 1	The title says it all and it's great! Needs more guns maybe?
May 1 01:24:40	18h 40m	Unojo temple	♥ 1	Good entry, maybe a second ability would help to spice it up.
May 1 01:30:01	5m 21s	Dungeon Racers	♥ 0	This is fantastic guys, nice music and definitely a blast to play. The controls are a little slidey, but luckily you added that space bar reverse. Need to get out and rate some games :)
May 1 02:15:06	45m 05s	Build The Road Jack	♥ 3	Damn, cool stuff. The camera seems to zoom out pretty far when you are going really fast. Also, the track builder rotates uncontrollably for me (keyboard/mouse/win10). Still, totally playable and totally bad-ass.
