Apr 22 23:59:47 Deep space - cards battle ♥ 2 Art was really good :). Progression seemed a bit too slow, and it would be nice to see the controls in-game. Not bad overall but quicker progression and better music would improve the game a lot.
Apr 23 00:34:12 34m 25s Flappy Word Worm Bird ♥ 0 The concept and art are both awesome. Some sound effects would've made a huge difference though. My only complaint is that there isn't enough space to move up and down. I found it difficult to create any words because I ran into letters I didn't want way too much.
Apr 23 03:36:24 3h 02m Skies and Cubes ♥ 2 The 3D mode was cool, I liked the atmosphere of it. The 2D mode could use some work. If it were a bit longer and had better graphics it could've been amazing.
Apr 23 03:39:01 2m 37s Spacecards ♥ 1 Pretty cool game! Sound would've made it much better though. Also, some variation in enemies and their behavior would've been cool. Art was good aswell.
Apr 23 03:40:45 1m 44s The Place ♥ 0 This. Is. Awesome! The graphics are amazing, the atmosphere and sounds are too. If it fit the theme more this one could be a winner!
Apr 23 03:43:19 2m 34s Arachnovoid ♥ 1 A little bit confusing at first but once I got it I had quite a bit of fun with it. The follow the sound idea was implemented very well. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the graphics. Some texturing on the platforms would've made it so much better.
Apr 23 03:46:52 3m 33s A Daily Struggle ♥ 1 At the start I found it very difficult to manage but after a while it became easier. If that was done intentionally in order demonstrate the effects of depression then you're a genius ;). Gameplay is a bit repetitive, graphics are pretty good, but you really killed it on the mood aspect. Good job man.
Apr 23 04:26:43 39m 51s Art of the Kill ♥ 1 The concept was awesome, and it certainly was a challenge. Awesome work!
Apr 23 21:26:19 16h 59m Avenue Zed ♥ 0 The concept is great and it plays well. Better graphics and some sound effects would've made it a lot better though.
Apr 23 21:46:30 20m 11s clickjumper ♥ 1 Pretty cool game. Some sound effects would make a big difference though.
Apr 23 21:56:17 9m 47s Shooter Maze ♥ 3 Your concept is my favorite out of all the games I've played so far. I think you really nailed the theme. The audio is great too. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the way the ship part worked. There are way too many arrows on screen at one time moving so fast that I found it impossible to shoot the one I wanted which made it very hard to make any progress. I think if you made the ship part a bit easier and increased the difficulty of the maze part by adding different levels and hazards, the game could be a contender to win. Great job!
Apr 23 22:42:44 46m 27s LD 41 - A Bite of Profits ♥ 1 I feel like this isn't anything new, just a pokemon clone with added features. The music was funny at first but because it was a short loop it got irritating after a while. Also, the text goes by so quick its hard to read it, and the movement could use some work. The game mechanics were pretty good though and I think this game could be good if it were more polished.
Apr 23 22:51:08 8m 24s I am Tree ♥ 1 Great game, lots of fun! I feel like it doesn't fit the theme very well though. Also, the lightning strike before the rain is a bit loud gave me a good spook ;). Other than that good job!
Apr 23 22:56:06 4m 58s TYPING JUMPER ♥ 0 I couldn't get up to the platform, but I like the concept.
Apr 23 23:19:38 23m 32s LD41 - Money Doesn't Grow on Trees ♥ 1 Definitely one of the best I played so far. The graphics are great, a moving animation would be nice though. Sound is good. It kept me entertained for longer than most games, and It fits the theme pretty well. Great job!
Apr 24 04:21:01 5h 01m Blast Me To The Finish ♥ 1 The audio is amazing! The rest of the game isn't all that interesting though. I feel like its already been done. The graphics are good but a bit blurry. Overall, it's a good game but could use a bit more gameplay elements.
Apr 24 04:29:10 8m 09s Road Rules ♥ 2 The graphics are great, the audio is good as well despite being laggy when accelerating. I found the turning to be a bit sensitive. Also, when you run into an object, like a fence, you should only get penalized once because the way it is now if you are still in contact with said fence your meter keeps going up. Overall it was a good game, fun to drive around.
Apr 24 20:58:40 16h 29m Ready, Deck, Go! ♥ 1 Not bad man! The game plays really well. I will say that I think the space bar would be a better option than the 1 key. The graphics could use some work, so could the audio. My biggest issue with the game is that it felt like there was no point. If there was some kind of goal to strive for it would be a lot more fun. Also, it seems like there's unlimited money. If there was some kind of currency system in place so that you win money from matches and can buy better packs, there would be an incentive to play longer. Definitely a good effort for 48 hours. If you had more time to add some other features this could've been an awesome game.
Apr 24 21:21:07 22m 27s Jean-Micheng VS Goblins ♥ 1 The audio is awesome. The graphics are good except the animations could use some work. I think having a win lose condition would make the game so much better. It would give players a goal to strive for. I also feel like you could do more for the platformer side. It seems like its just a sports game with some obstacles. Overall its pretty good just needs a few more features and refining.
Apr 24 21:40:42 19m 35s ROGUEMATCH ♥ 2 Wow. One of the best ones I've played so far. I loved the concept, it was fun to play, the graphics were great, and the sound effects were cool. There's only one thing I didn't like. I found it difficult to come up with a plan to get three in a row because they moved so much and you have so few moves. I found that it was luck that allowed me to clear rooms more than thinking. However, I might just be bad at it XD. Also, music always helps so next time you should try to make a simple loop of some sort. Great job!
Apr 24 22:34:14 53m 32s Factower ♥ 1 You nailed the theme but there is a lot of room for improvement. Some in-game instructions would be helpful as it is a pretty complex game. Also, the start is pretty slow. As far as graphics go you did a really good job considering how much time there was. The audio was lacking however which is unfortunate because audio is such a huge part of video games. I'm really surprised you were able to achieve so much in such a short time good job!
Apr 24 22:47:29 13m 15s Scrolls ♥ 1 The graphics are awesome, the music is pretty good too. The concept is really awesome as well. Unfortunately, I found it too difficult. I think you got the speed right it gives a nice sense of panic but, there's no sound effects or knockback when you hit an enemy which makes killing them and staying alive really hard. Not so much in a challenging way but rather a frustrating way. Also, I think using the scroll wheel instead of the number keys would've made it a lot better and a better UI would help out too. Overall, the game is awesome!
Apr 25 00:21:29 1h 34m Zoccer ♥ 1 Pretty good game! One of the better ones I've played so far. You definitely did the theme justice. The sound and graphics are both above average but could use some work. Overall, you did a great job. Can't wait for the post-mortem! :D
Apr 25 01:34:43 1h 13m Email Fishing: A Tower Defense Fishing Simulator ♥ 1 Pretty cool game! I think if you added a few more messages it would make the game funnier and more fun. Great job!
Apr 25 02:09:40 34m 57s A Tale of Two Kings ♥ 0 Really liked the feel of this game. The art and audio are both fantastic. Unfortunately, the game wasn't very fun or replayable because it was based on rock paper scissors. However, I enjoyed watching the castles get built and it's definitely the best rock paper scissors I ever played ;). Great job!
Apr 25 02:25:47 16m 07s bill ball ♥ 1 The concept is really awesome. Unfortunately, the gameplay isn't that great. If you had more time you could've made something amazing. This is possibly the best game in terms of matching the theme and creativity though. Good job!
