| Apr 24 17:07:52 | Guerrilla Gardening | ♥ 1 | this combination actually works :D beautiful pixel art, I really enjoy your style and color choices. Music follows the rhythm of the game nicely, and planting strawberries, killing enemies, and even walking around is really satisfying. I would only say that the camera moves around a bit too quickly for me, and could benefit from some smoothing and tweaks, but I got used to it quickly and don't think of it as a problem. Overall, very fun entry! :) | |
| Apr 24 17:35:38 | 27m 46s | Life and Death | ♥ 2 | Unfortunately I couldn't find someone to play with :D so I maneuvered with both players. I like the concept, and the very charming graphics! |
| Apr 24 17:46:05 | 10m 27s | KEYBOARD WARRIOR | ♥ 0 | I love how you made the letter gun :D pretty fun concept. The graphics are nice, and the character controls good. It's nice that the letters that appear are close to your WASD hand. Nice attention to detail :) |
| Apr 24 18:05:02 | 18m 57s | Crowdsurf | ♥ 1 | Crowd hype remained at 100% ! :D This was very fun to play, and I laughed quite a bit. First time I played the crowd wasn't very satisfied :D but the second time was the charm. I sure hope you're collecting what the players are typing in, so that you can get a good laugh too :) Great entry~! |
| Apr 24 19:24:55 | 1h 19m | AsteroidSweeper xTreme | ♥ 1 | Love this idea, literally blending two games in one :) Both games control nicely and the presentation is solid. Very fun entry :) p.s. Thanks a ton for pointing out that Darkade doesn't work on Linux! That should be fixed now. |
| Apr 24 19:39:26 | 14m 31s | Hell's Kitchen | ♥ 1 | That brain model is glorious :D As others have mentioned, controls need a bit of polish, and perhaps more clear instructions in-game on what to do in the beginning. But nevertheless, it's a fun entry! :) |
| Apr 24 19:46:52 | 7m 26s | Obaké | ♥ 0 | Interesting take on the theme :) I was hoping you would be switching from 2D to 3D, but this makes it more challenging and unique. |
| Apr 24 22:03:04 | 2h 16m | Dangerous Gold | ♥ 1 | Those are some nice lava effects! :) Also your programmer art is not half bad! I like the jumping mechanics and gameplay in general. Although the only thing I can't see is the connection to the theme. But otherwise, nice entry! |
| Apr 24 22:06:55 | 3m 51s | Goal Defense | ♥ 1 | Nice take on the theme! :) Simple, but fitting graphics. The player was a bit too inert for me and it made the game a bit hard, but I like the challenge. |
| Apr 24 22:11:36 | 4m 41s | PROTECT | ♥ 1 | Like the mood here! :) The music is very fitting to the overall style. This is a nice take on the theme :) The only problem I had was with jumps and enemy hit boxes. The player perhaps felt a bit too floaty, and since the enemies would appear quickly, and had large hit boxes, I would often die. |
| Apr 24 22:21:15 | 9m 39s | Dance Ceasar Dance | ♥ 1 | :D I love the pixel heads bobbing to the rhythm. I very much like the art style. The music suits the game. With a bit of gameplay polish, and more rhythmic moves variety, this could be a really fun thing! |
| Apr 24 22:37:09 | 15m 54s | Perpetual Quest | ♥ 1 | this is the coolest take on the theme I've seen yet! :D I really like the combination. Music and graphics are all spot on. They set a really nice retro mood. A mood you never wanna get out of :) |
| Apr 24 22:54:28 | 17m 19s | Keep Blobby Alive | ♥ 2 | I'm a simple man, I see gameboy colors, I click. :D Very nice entry! I love the combination of the genres for this theme. Graphics and music fit the style and mood. Only thing I'd say perhaps looks off are the enemies and the player, since they are drawn in a higher resolution than the rest of the world. Overall, great work, really relaxing! |
| Apr 25 18:57:27 | 20h 02m | RoguePets | ♥ 1 | I like this mix a lot. Training your pets, then sending them off to the dungeon to earn you money :D You should keep working on this! The graphics are really nice, and the music fits the mood. The start of the game is perhaps a bit too difficult, and I think this has to do with the way enemies move. You can't really predict where they're gonna go next, and how many times you need to hit them. Maybe later on have early levels be shorter and easier, then slowly increase difficulty as days in the game go by or something similar. Overall, very good entry! |
| Apr 25 19:06:40 | 9m 13s | Turn-based Bullethell | ♥ 1 | Very nice take on the theme, great idea! :) The only complaint is that I didn't feel like turns were passing by, it felt more like time pauses every half a second (if you quickly pass turns), and you adjust your position in between. Perhaps if your shots were also somehow turn-based, but I understand this is difficult to get right, it would've made it feel more turn-y, and I guess also if enemies did something on their turns that you can respond to in your next turn. Overall, I do like it, and I think it's a solid entry! :) |
| Apr 25 21:28:55 | 2h 22m | CARED | ♥ 2 | Fantastic sprite work and animations :) Camera movement is a bit weird when you turn sharply, but other than that, mechanics feel good! When zombies hit you, perhaps it would be cool if they knocked you back a bit, since it happened too often to me that I'm standing in the same place as the zombie and I'm unable to hit them, but they can hit me. |
| Apr 25 21:34:24 | 5m 29s | (S)Word Forge | ♥ 1 | Very cool pixel art! :) I wish there was more variety in the things you type/do, and perhaps some goal you're working towards, even if it's just hinted. |
| Apr 25 21:55:53 | 21m 29s | Cropshots | ♥ 1 | What a fun mix! :) farming bullet hell. I like it! The art is very good, and music is fitting. It's an interesting concept since you can choose where to plant what plants. You have to be strategic about it :) The throwing on the floor animation is hilarious :D and very useful! I would perhaps consider adding an indicator when a plant is ready to pick up. When there's a lot of plants, you can miss a few, especially as it's getting dark. Overall, this is a great entry! Keep at it :) |
| Apr 25 22:11:23 | 15m 30s | Rogue Ball | ♥ 1 | I really like the mood here. It's very spooky. Combined with the silent death animations of the enemies makes it very eerie. The player controlled a bit too inert at times, and I found myself spending a lot of time just forcing the ball where I want it to go. The graphics and music fit the mood really well, and I think you managed to combine 2 incompatible themes very nicely! :) |
| Apr 25 22:47:21 | 35m 58s | Guan's Island | ♥ 2 | Ahhh I really enjoyed this. The overworld map is so reminiscent of games like chrono trigger and final fantasy. The music and art style fits the game perfectly! I had to play all the way to the end! ~~|> The platforming controls could perhaps use some tweaks, like faster falling down, to give more weight to the player, and snappier jumps, but there's some charm in these mechanics, as it is. As you mentioned, enemies would have been a nice addition, but lack of enemies didn't make the game any less fun, so don't worry about it :) |
| Apr 26 12:19:36 | 13h 32m | Type2Flap | ♥ 0 | this was really cool :) I love the b&w pixel art. Nice mix of incompatible genres! It can be a bit difficult at times (sometimes even impossible), but reagrdless, this is very well executed! |
| Apr 26 12:40:40 | 21m 04s | Dungeon of High School romance | ♥ 1 | This is really cool and funny :D beautiful ascii art composition :) I died often and early haha, but it was fun regardless. Great take on the theme. |
| Apr 26 18:25:40 | 5h 45m | Super Antithesis Kart | ♥ 2 | The visuals and the narration are beautiful! Though, I could not understand the bigger picture D: but that's just me haha. As was mentioned, subtitles would perhaps be of great help. Nonetheless, great entry! |
| Apr 26 18:37:11 | 11m 31s | Rookie Raccoon | ♥ 1 | This was really well done, especially since it's your first LD. Airplane controls really well and shooting is fun. I would've liked more shoot 'em up segments, since after a while you get good at dodging all of the lights. Perhaps introduce new challenges as game progresses? In any case, great entry! Keep at it :) |
| Apr 26 19:58:15 | 1h 21m | The Heat Of Battle | ♥ 1 | The ending was sad :( But I'm glad Bunny Amour didn't react to it the way I thought she would! The art is top notch, both game environments look and feel amazing and atmospheric. In an attempt to not shoot the bunnies I jumped over the wall and outside map bounds. But that didn't help :D Playing Bunny Amour's part was very fun and I managed to hook up all of the soldiers together :) Possibly the best entry I played so far! |
| Apr 27 21:31:08 | 25h 32m | Crystal Library | ♥ 4 | You managed to create a very creepy atmosphere with great audio and gameplay style :) The topdown view really gives you this, almost claustrophobic feel. Kudos for making the map procedurally generated too. I wouldn't dare attempt that in such a short time! :) |
| Apr 27 21:35:05 | 3m 57s | BatterHook | ♥ 2 | :D what a fun and wacky idea! It definitively has potential! |
| Apr 27 22:23:16 | 48m 11s | Knightmare | ♥ 1 | Beautiful background and sprite art! :0 I like the mix of the themes here! It was a bit difficult to do precise movement, especially with the dash, but aside from that, it is a fun entry! |
| Apr 27 22:42:02 | 18m 46s | Diorama | ♥ 1 | wow! this is a really great combination and idea. Very interesting. The graphics and the music are very nice. What an interesting entry! |
