| Apr 24 02:04:21 | AimBots | ♥ 1 | This is clever! Nice genre-mashup, with a good frame story. The intro sequence goes on a little long, but it's fun once you get into it. I had a hard time judging timings; it might be helpful to have some indication of how fast your drone actually travels (even just a marker for "this distance = 1 second"). It's a good challenge though; nice work. | |
| Apr 24 02:15:01 | 10m 40s | Chungholio Tower | ♥ 1 | Wow, this is a challenge - my first half-dozen attempts ended in falling off the map while running away from something, and most of the rest getting mobbed by the little ground enemies. I could see having a lot of fun with it if I were better at it, though; the level design is really well done. |
| Apr 24 02:19:15 | 4m 14s | BASEBALL in HELL | ♥ 1 | This is so unsettling, in the best possible way - I feel as disoriented as I would be playing actual baseball, and nearly as uncomfortable as I'd be in actual Hell. Great sound effects and great concept - I made it to one base and then died, but who's counting? :) |
| Apr 24 02:25:22 | 6m 07s | Panic Farm! | ♥ 0 | This is delightful! The art is amazing - the main character's animation never gets old and I really dig the Far Side-esque petulant cow. I couldn't figure out how to get the delivery mechanic to work - I successfully sent the truck off once, then it came back and wouldn't take anything else I offered it - but the minigames were fun and well-executed. Great work. |
| Apr 24 02:41:05 | 15m 43s | Light At Night | ♥ 1 | Great aesthetic - clever way to make it visually interesting within the time constraint of the jam. Platforming's fun, though the controls are a little finicky - it would be nice to have more air control, I spent ages jumping from one side to another trying to get to one of the collectibles. Fantastic music. Nice work! |
| Apr 24 02:47:25 | 6m 20s | Pieter Post Apocalypse | ♥ 3 | This is great! Fun concept and fun to play. I enjoyed the juxtaposition of the upbeat music with the desolate setting. Nice truck physics too - I don't think I've played anything that let me dodge and jump with a mail truck before. :) |
| Apr 24 02:54:54 | 7m 29s | Tennis Hero | ♥ 1 | Okay, I'm a huge sucker for the TRON neon aesthetic so that's what first drew me in, but even aside from that this is a great game. Clever idea, challenging to play, and well polished. Nice work! |
| Apr 24 03:07:46 | 12m 52s | We Don't Serve Zombies | ♥ 2 | Holy crap, this is fantastic - easily the best game of this jam I've played so far. Great concept and very well executed. The zombie-shooting gets a little repetitive, but the cooking part keeps its charm - I really enjoyed the little rhythm mini-game. I hit a bug eventually where I couldn't drop any meat on the grill, which sadly put an end to my burger career, but everything up to that point was tremendous fun. |
| Apr 24 03:15:37 | 7m 51s | Happy Town | ♥ 0 | This is cute! I love the art style. Not entirely sure I got what was going on - I grabbed an apple more or less by accident, then got in the way of another car until the meter on top of it filled. The idea seems like it has some fun potential. Nice job. |
| Apr 24 03:20:16 | 4m 39s | Card Walk | ♥ 0 | This is fun! The first level instantly "game over"s for me and the third one is really hard, but the second is a good challenge. Really nice art too; the dog's cute. This is a great game for your first jam - I hope you make more! |
| Apr 24 03:40:01 | 19m 45s | PathMatcher | ♥ 0 | Clever! Simple, but surprising fun. I couldn't figure out how to do anything at first - some feedback when trying to make an impossible move (or just instructions on how to play) would be helpful - but once I did, I liked it. Feels almost meditative. Nice work! |
| Apr 24 15:15:02 | 11h 35m | A Virtual Friend | ♥ 1 | This is cute! Great pixel art. I like it much better than the original. |
| Apr 25 02:29:58 | 11h 14m | Trivia Monsters | ♥ 0 | Clever combination of ideas - the enemy attacks felt a little unbalanced, but it's still a fun challenge. Nice work. |
| Apr 25 15:00:13 | 12h 30m | Fail Fast Co. | ♥ 2 | Clever! I like this better than the RTSs I've played - it feels like it's more about planning your next move than constantly reacting to disasters. I couldn't get the research cards to play, for some reason - clicking one and clicking on the yellow clipboard just made a staticky noise and put the card back. Regardless, though, nicely done! |
| Apr 25 15:05:32 | 5m 19s | Fast & Food | ♥ 2 | This is fun! Great combination of ideas, and I really dig the music and the pixel art. Nice work! |
| Apr 26 02:04:31 | 10h 58m | MIDINIGHT RUN | ♥ 1 | This is cool! A lot of songs seem to end up with really wide empty spaces or areas with no blue pick-up things, but for some of them it works well. I liked the brightly-colored minimalist vibe. Nice work. |
| Apr 27 02:12:08 | 24h 07m | Jungle Rumble | ♥ 0 | This is clever! Tough genres to combine, but it works - this could be really interesting against a human player. Really solid artwork too; looks like you put a lot of time into it. Nice work! |
| Apr 27 02:19:24 | 7m 16s | Foos Fight | ♥ 0 | This is really well done and I am god-awful at it, but that's the case for real-world foosball as well so... points for accuracy, haha. Fun idea! Could stand to be sped up a little - I spent a lot of time watching the ball lazily make its way down the side of the field - but with some tuning this would be a great challenge. |
| Apr 27 02:34:45 | 15m 21s | Ascii paouf II | ♥ 0 | This is really good! I didn't find it too difficult - got to maybe the fourth or fifth level without issue. I did a typing game too, and your word list seems a lot more interesting than mine; where'd you get it? |
| Apr 27 03:18:30 | 43m 45s | Cardey (VR Only) | ♥ 1 | This is brilliant and impossible - I threw 41 cards at the first hole and got maybe three of them anywhere near it. Great idea, impeccably executed, and exactly as difficult (and compelling) as it would be in real life. Fantastic work. |
| Apr 28 02:56:19 | 23h 37m | Type it like Schumacher! | ♥ 1 | This is fantastic! Love the concept and it's impeccably well executed. Great music too. Nice work! |
| Apr 28 03:03:02 | 6m 43s | Blitzingo | ♥ 1 | This is a clever combination, and really challenging - it's tough to focus on both the board and the targets around it. Even "medium" difficulty was too hard for me, but I bet with some practice I could get better. Nice job! |
| Apr 28 03:25:25 | 22m 23s | Shoot the Notes | ♥ 1 | This is well done! It's a clever concept, and really well built for your first jam and in so short a time. It doesn't seem to get any harder over time - that'd be a good thing to add to it - but it's a solid foundation and fun as it is. Nice work! |
| Apr 28 04:15:06 | 49m 41s | F.I.S.T.S (FIRST PERSON IDLE CLICKER SHOOTER HORROR TOWER DEFENCE SURVIVAL) | ♥ 1 | This is exquisite. For something so classically violent, it gets almost meditative after a while. The progression is well-designed - gets a little easy after a while with the right upgrades, but that's satisfying in itself. The graphics are great and the sound effects are satisfying; could use music, but it works without. One of the best games I've played from this jam. Fantastic job. |
| Apr 28 04:19:49 | 4m 43s | Rhythm Jumper | ♥ 0 | This is superb! Feels incredibly well-polished; there's nothing more or less in it than there needs to be. Catchy music, approachable but challenging gameplay, charming art style... great work. |
| Apr 28 14:37:46 | 10h 17m | Dainty Deprivation | ♥ 2 | Absolutely fantastic visuals - I love the kind of Seuss-ian vibe of the trees, and the forest creatures are charmingly whimsical too (though that didn't stop them from getting stuck in my car's bumper). I didn't get much of an RPG feel from it - maybe they could have started bits of NPC dialog as you hit them? "Howdy, traveler, I -" "You must help us -" "I need -"... Regardless, it's fun and the whole thing is really well polished; nice work! |
| Apr 28 15:00:30 | 22m 44s | Bird-View Burger Barn | ♥ 2 | This is excellent! Great combination of ideas, perfect execution. The pixel art's on-point, as are the music and the sound effects. This would do really well as a mobile game, if you feel like taking it that direction. Nice work! |
| Apr 28 15:18:27 | 17m 57s | The Fishing | ♥ 2 | I love this! It starts out so whimsical and gets incredibly creepy as you go farther down - the sound definitely enhances that. The core movement mechanic works really well too. Great job! |
| Apr 28 15:41:53 | 23m 26s | Skate'n'Snipe | ♥ 1 | Great idea! It's fun, though it gets repetitive after a while - as a few other folks mentioned, some kind of difficulty curve would be good. Fantastically catchy music. Nice work! |
