Apr 25 23:41:53		Rogue Race	♥ 1	Really cool graphic style! Gameplay reminds me of some aspects of FTL. Very creative and funny encounters - I like it!
Apr 25 23:47:24	5m 31s	Stardust	♥ 0	Super cool concept! I really like jumping from planet to planet, and that your player 'orbits' the planet after jumping. Sort of reminds me of Mario Galaxy! I was able to double or triple jump at times, which got me a bit lost. This is an excellent entry. Great job!
Apr 25 23:51:54	4m 30s	Line'em up	♥ 3	Super great entry here! Great idea, fun gameplay, and scratches that puzzle itch. Way to make these genres work together. Game really kicked my butt as I started progressing. Fun stuff!
Apr 26 02:20:42	2h 28m	The final decission	♥ 2	You really nailed the mood on this game! It's dark, but also funny. I enjoyed trying to answer the questions honestly to see what Grandpa's fate would be. I also liked the sound design and music. Nice job!
Apr 26 02:28:39	7m 57s	Stop The Munchies	♥ 1	Nice combination of genres! I was eventually able to thwart the munchies and survive. I found that creating a lot of loops would cause the munchies to have a difficult time finding the end of the maze. Lucky for me because I used up all of my towers pretty early on! Nice job!
Apr 26 02:35:18	6m 39s	Devil's Playground	♥ 0	Cool idea! I had some trouble deciphering the difference between 'sing' and 'dance'. They both looked the same to me! Even with that said, I was able to get the demon to a pretty happy state. He was all smiles until I hit around 100 tricks (at which point I started to fail miserably). I like the graphics a lot here, and the music sticks with that solid 8-bit style that never gets old. Nice job!
Apr 26 02:46:41	11m 23s	It's Not Lupus!	♥ 2	Very polished and solid game. Graphics and music were great, and the gameplay of battling the virus was really satisfying! You got these genres to mix well, and increasing the threat level is a good consequence for getting a misdiagnosis. My only negative feedback would be to take some of the low-end out of the audio that plays while text is being displayed. Having that sound play with every letter makes it a tiny bit machine-gunish. Great job!
Apr 28 17:11:26	62h 24m	Super Platformer RPG	♥ 1	The minimal graphics work really well here, as does the combination of the two genres. I had the freakin' hardest time getting past the first jump (where you grab the potion), but after that I was on a roll! I will say that I got my ass kicked quite a bit by enemies, but the solid mechanics kept me coming back for more. My only cons are that the difficulty was a bit high, and I would have loved some music to aid me in my quest. Great entry!
Apr 28 17:21:11	9m 45s	BreakOut Typing	♥ 0	This was pretty tough, but a really good entry! I didn't expect this type of mashup to work, but it does! I enjoyed typing words like "fatty" and "bush" while simultaneously trying to play breakout (and losing... badly). I found myself wanting a way to place my paddle back in the middle of the screen as it was tough trying to time the movement of it. With that said, once I got the hang of it I was able to get to level 3 successfully! Nice job - I think you really nailed the theme and innovation on this one. Fun stuff!
Apr 28 17:31:44	10m 33s	Tiny Planet	♥ 0	Super cool entry, and great job mixing themes! I like how the ship slides a bit, and doesn't stop on a dime. This made me plan my attack before sailing head-first into a bunch of barrels. The trade-sim aspect of it was pretty cool, and I really would like to see it more fleshed out. Graphics were also really solid! Nice touch with the sun going down too. Great work!
Apr 28 17:41:16	9m 32s	Total Carnage	♥ 0	This is pretty wild! The physics are really fun to play with, and they work very well with this type of game. I also like how the enemy police cars just come flying in with reckless abandon - even if you're surrounded by other enemy cars! They'll really stop at nothing to take you down! I had some difficulty controlling my vehicle at times, but it makes sense based on the fact that you're driving on sand. I also found the shooting sound to be a tad loud when used over and over. Other than those minor gripes, I found this entry to be outstanding. Nice job!
Apr 28 17:49:19	8m 03s	Sheet Music Editor Shoot'Em Up	♥ 1	This is a great entry! Fun gameplay while mixing in some musicality?? Sign me up! I like that different note lengths have different abilities, and I thought they each played (ha!) well with the physics of the staff lines. I also found it pretty hilarious that the notes shoot "rests" at enemy fighters. I would have like to have seen the music part played (ha again!) out a bit more. Maybe by being able to have multiple notes at the same time, and possibly by eventually forming a song or melody idea. I'm not positive exactly how that would work, but it's just where my brain is taking me at the moment. Anyway - nice job!!
Apr 28 17:55:49	6m 30s	Star clicker	♥ 1	I am now addicted to clickin' stars and surfin' bursts! This game is super simple, but excellent in its simplicity! I really like how the background starts to warp as the gravitational pull of the star intensifies. I found myself clicking like crazy until my screen was almost completely green or white. I don't really have much constructive criticism. I think adding some music would have helped with the overall feel of the game, but that's a pretty minor gripe. Seriously - great job on this.
Apr 28 18:14:23	18m 34s	Cowboys vs Aliens	♥ 2	This is super fun to play. Once I got the shotgun I felt like I owned this town! I like how easy it is to down enemies, and in turn, how easy it is to die. It adds some higher stakes to the gameplay. I also like how some enemies will just go crazy and start shooting with reckless abandon. It _does_ feel a bit like I'm playing "Shooting Spree: The Game", but it's super fun so I don't really have any qualms with that. Nice job, and great entry!
Apr 28 18:29:02	14m 39s	Platfarmer	♥ 1	Movement feels really satisfying in this game. Once I realized I could double jump, I started flying around the level like Super Meat Boy! A mini-map would be a nice addition (I got a bit lost at times) as would some music or sound effects, but I know those types of "polish" items can be limited when it comes to game jams. I also would have liked to see more farming mechanics. Maybe planting or watering items to grow on your own. Again, really solid mechanics, and overall great entry!
Apr 28 18:38:12	9m 10s	Shuttle Launch	♥ 1	What is this, a David Lynch game? Seriously wild and bizarre. The strange atmosphere mixed with the occasional discordant music really threw me for a loop. I'm reminded of games like "Myst" where you have to discover some deeper meaning or secrets throughout the game. I started to get the hang of things after a few minutes, but man... seriously, this overall feel is disconcerting. And that's not a bad thing!
Apr 28 18:43:51	5m 39s	Shoot 'em when it's time	♥ 0	Cool idea, and great take on the theme! This is really fun, although I did find it difficult to progress beyond stage 2. Sound effects were hilarious, and the weapon firing sounds like it was voiced by Christopher Walken. Nice job!
