| Apr 24 07:38:34 | SSSS | ♥ 2 | Sacrificing a tutorial was a bad idea, it makes difficult to understand what to do. However, the game is fun! Concept reminds me good old days of playing FTL, music and visuals fit each other and build a mood of the game. Don't stop creating! btw, is this my system's misbehaviour or a bug? screen.png | |
| Apr 24 07:58:48 | 20m 14s | Stealth Soup | ♥ 2 | As a pie! =) Months of playing _Monaco: What's Yours is Mine_ and the proper skill is developed. The final target is not clear enough, I'm just running from one machine to another and never reach the right half of a screen because I simply don't need it. What is happening? =) Well, at least I can have fun dodging between this guys, what's better than that? =) I realy like the visual style: pixels, colors, light - everything harmonize. And special thanks from me for the working linux build! ;) |
| Apr 24 09:24:18 | 1h 25m | Roundabout: ~ Roguelike & Rythm ~ Trading Bard Game | ♥ 2 | The game went pretty monotonous until I realized how to make a character shine. Then the real fun began! Unfortunately I could not finish the game because a strange bug appeared when trying to shine a drummer. However, it was really fun! It's like a classic D&D party claiming themselves rock stars: strange, but surprisingly effective. Card mechanics is very well designed, I love it! Also, graphics is awesome! btw, keyboard control in menu works really strange, you may better get rid of it. |
| Apr 24 09:46:57 | 22m 39s | PE@CE | ♥ 1 | Holy guacamole, ASCII blood! =) Yeah, man, this game is so solid, making a platformer game of this quality should be a lot of work. Incredible animations, unusual for a chosen style, but look really impressive. |
| Apr 24 10:05:19 | 18m 22s | Battleship CRUSHER | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept. I think, having a puzzle and a ship on the same screen would make the game more structured. Now it feels like two separated games (I know, it really is). Also, where exactly am I going? =) |
| Apr 24 10:16:58 | 11m 39s | WarCard | ♥ 1 | Hmm, camera behaves really strange. Shouldn't it follow my leading tank? I don't know about Windows, but on linux it doesn't move. The concept is nice! As for gameplay, I found pickups useless. =) |
| Apr 24 10:30:33 | 13m 35s | aVOID | ♥ 0 | Ouch, this game doesn't fit my 1366x768 screen. =( But anyway, it is awesome! I love fast-paced games. The question is: why does the final screen always tell me that my score is zero? I'm pretty sure it isn't. =) |
| Apr 24 10:57:15 | 26m 42s | Jump and Draw | ♥ 1 | Really interesting idea and a very fun game! I was kinda annoyed by a jump's mana cost, but is a core mechanic of the game. Also, it's a bit disturbing when the enemy doesn't react to a hit. It makes me wonder whether the game is broken and my spell didn't hit it at all or it didn't cause enough damage. Maybe, some animation can address this problem. |
| Apr 24 13:19:44 | 2h 22m | Heart of the Cards | ♥ 1 | Whoa, what an unconventional use of cards! Wonderful implementation of the original idea. Voxel graphics gives this game its charm. I would love to see an aim on the screen, but it isn't a problem for hardcore gamers. Awesome work! |
| Apr 24 14:27:22 | 1h 07m | Rhythm Rogue | ♥ 0 | This game is great! Unusual way to control a character that is also a cool way to develop a skill of keeping the rhythm (I guess). Surprisingly, he tune is not annoying at all. Nicely done! |
| Apr 24 14:53:39 | 26m 17s | Jumponoid | ♥ 1 | Definitely lacks a "play again" button. Interesting concept, but it needs careful level design. |
| Apr 24 15:33:58 | 40m 19s | Zoccer | ♥ 1 | Great work! Incredible idea to make a ball also a weapon and a light source. Also, a giant goalkeeper is a brilliant unexpected turn! Personally I found zombies too weak, but it doesn't break fun at all. |
| Apr 24 16:11:56 | 37m 58s | Hanoi - City of Scooters | ♥ 1 | Ouch! The sound of a crash is too loud for me to play with headphones. =/ Creating an online game for a jam is a risky decision. And you succeeded with this. Just curious, does Randall Munroe know about this game? =) P.S.: crushed into myself... well, I've always suspected myself as the one who's ruining my life and now I have the evidence. =) |
| Apr 24 16:32:17 | 20m 21s | Type Skater | ♥ 0 | Tough typing challenge! I wish I was cool enough to do any of that tricks (ironically, my game is about typing too =) ). Also, this pixel art visuals are amazing! |
| Apr 24 16:54:05 | 21m 48s | Disco Death Race | ♥ 2 | Sorry, can't tell much about visuals because I was concentrated on that arrows. Oh, arrows are nice. =) Jokes apart, I enjoyed the image. Gameplay is intense and needs some practice - right as it should be. Great work! The only thing I found a bit annoying is the need to use mouse to navigate UI screens when all the other things are controlled with a keyboard. |
| Apr 25 09:02:49 | 16h 08m | Player Alone BattleGrounds (Early Access) | ♥ 3 | I didn't get the idea, but somehow I won. =) I like this low-poly graphics! I've found some glitches: something strange happens to camera inside the buildings and the mouse pointer escapes the window in the windowed mode. |
| Apr 25 09:23:20 | 20m 31s | Consoletris | ♥ 1 | Ha, I had just the same idea for a linux console game 3 years ago but didn't implement it. =D Unity looks a bit overkill for the game like that, but I think you had not much choice in such a limited time. Real fun to play it, dude! |
| Apr 25 10:13:56 | 50m 36s | Cowboys vs Aliens | ♥ 2 | What can be better than provoking guys to shoot each other? The game is so cool! Lovely voice acting mixed with solid pixel art and fitting music! The only thing I found a bit unfair is the cowboys' unlimited ammo. Every other thing, including everyday tips perfectly fits the game. Hope to see more games from you in the future! |
| Apr 25 11:31:31 | 1h 17m | TETRITION | ♥ 0 | Great concept! I love the tetris game and the need to create a ladder from blocks disturbs me a bit. But that's the source of fun! What a wonderful work! =) |
| Apr 25 13:55:52 | 2h 24m | PlatSCII | ♥ 3 | Great! The lighting effect is wonderful, coupled with background music it creates the game's special mood. Well done, guys! |
| Apr 25 14:22:04 | 26m 12s | Tsun Tsun Button Mash | ♥ 1 | Just finished this promo of _Infernus_. =) Simple and polished game! The only thing is that the font in speech bubbles is way too small when there are a lot of text, but who really cares about text playing a game about boobs, huh? =) |
| Apr 25 14:34:43 | 12m 39s | Type n' Jump | ♥ 2 | Yet another game about typing! Neat look! Sometimes it's really frustrating, but not enough to kill any fun. =) I found the background tune a bit annoying, but still acceptable. |
| Apr 25 15:01:27 | 26m 44s | International Survival Soccer | ♥ 1 | Good looking game and really interesting mechanics. I found it a bit unfair and useless that when you get spotted your buddy appears behind you and you simply don't have enough time to react. However, when you are not spotted and try to make a pass, your fella appears right near the ball. So winning tactic is just run forward and pass through enemies' sight. That's how I win. =) However it doesn't make the game less fun. I love this fog and guys made of pixels! Great work! |
| Apr 25 15:33:07 | 31m 40s | Commodore Combat | ♥ 1 | Wooh! 52200 points. It was exhausting, man! I love this console's look, it's amazing! You really put much very effort into graphics. Of this console simulator! =D And this active background tune fits the game. Incredible old-school fun! |
| Apr 25 15:58:49 | 25m 42s | TOBY GAWK PRO WALKER (🔥NOW WITH HTML🔥) | ♥ 2 | Today I learned all the synonyms for a word "look". =) Great game! Right before Ludum Dare I've installed THPS 4 on my PC and now I'm playing probably the best parody. Awesome concept, really cool! Also, I love the tune, catchy thing! Thanks, @jupiter-hadley, for taking me here! |
| Apr 25 17:19:24 | 1h 20m | You Can't Dodge Your Feelings! | ♥ 0 | The cutest thing I've ever played. Well, honestly, I didn't play many cute things before, I guess the number is less than 5, but this one is definitely the cutest. =) |
| Apr 25 17:40:27 | 21m 03s | Dungeon Slider | ♥ 1 | I'm not a puzzle player in general, but this one is really awesome! Simple mechanics always lead to a great fun when it's well implemented like in this case. And also, you catched me with aestetics of classic D&D setting. And I really enjoy seing this pixel art. Good work, man! |
| Apr 26 07:36:15 | 13h 55m | Catchinko | ♥ 1 | Yay, it's fun! But it also requires so much RAM (like any Unity WebGL game does -_-). So shiny cat's face, looking at it made me forget all of my troubles. =) |
| Apr 26 09:45:32 | 2h 09m | The Matter at Hand | ♥ 1 | This looks solid. First time I noticed a tumbnail, I thought that it's a PICO-8 game and was a bit surprised to see a jar. The game plays smoothly and even the lack of sound didn't spoil any fun! =) Really nice pixel art and color scheme seems to be picked with a lot of care. Well done! btw, I'm running on Linux machine, it works as if the game was made for it. =) |
| Apr 27 08:16:39 | 22h 31m | Check, Please! | ♥ 1 | Surprisingly, playing this game was easier than dates IRL. =) This wonderful 3D models accompained by the light and music made the atmosphere of the game. However, I'm still not sure whether I won or lost, maybe some notifications could make it clear. All in all, the game is cool and original, glad I found it. |
| Apr 27 09:04:48 | 48m 09s | Super Dashball | ♥ 1 | The first computer game about squash I've ever seen. This is really fun and also perfectly fits the previous LD's theme. =D I like this graphics and the mechanic, both simple and effective. Definitely will come back with a friend to test a multiplayer mode. |
| Apr 27 09:42:23 | 37m 35s | Platform Hero | ♥ 1 | What a great game! =) I love almost everything about it, especially the background tune. There are some bugs with crouching that can make character stuck or even allow to fall through a platform, but this doesn't break a game for me. |
| Apr 27 11:52:35 | 2h 10m | Match Strike | ♥ 1 | Flight simulator is the genre I expected the least. This kind of games seems to need a lot of work and the fact you made it not only playable, but enjoyable indeed is impressive! The "game over" when out of fuel is a bit disturbing, but it doesn't spoil a game experience. I like controls, they work pretty smooth. Also, lovely voice acting, I think headphones are recommended to feel the game's mood. =D |
| Apr 27 13:08:46 | 1h 16m | Type2Flap | ♥ 0 | Another one for the gang of typing games! =) Really enjoyable monochrome visuals! |
| Apr 27 17:17:21 | 4h 08m | Dungeon of High School romance | ♥ 1 | It's a great idea to combine classic ASCII dungeon crawler with romance. I think, shortcuts for links would be really good, but even without it, the game plays pretty comfortly (otherwise _Vimium_ can be used). Great work! =) |
| Apr 27 18:05:36 | 48m 15s | Crystal Turrets | ♥ 1 | Fun concept and really nice implementation. =) Visuals are really nice and polished! Looking forward to see a post-jam version, for now I can just do this: Capture.PNG |
| Apr 28 10:46:35 | 16h 40m | ASM Hell | ♥ 1 | Programming the way out, huh? Sounds [a bit familiar](http://alexnisnevich.github.io/untrusted/). =) I love assembler and this game is relaxing for me. I also like the choice of a font and a character's appearance. The game appears to be carefully polished, it even saves programs into a local storage, what's better than this! However, I found a lack of keybord shortcuts a bit annoying, the need of touching a mouse to run a program or just to press 'OK' is not the expected behaviour for an ASM-related game. And also I didn't find a way to consult a manual page during programming. All in all, the game provides a wonderful geeky kind of fun! Nicely done! |
| Apr 28 15:07:02 | 4h 20m | GUN-HOCKEY | ♥ 1 | Holy guacamole, this is awesome! So much fun, I just can's stop playing! Definitely needs a VR multiplayer mode, even though it won't be very popular for a couple of years. The fact you play versus a hands floating in the air only make it more absurd and perfectly fit the game's spirit. Magnificent work! |
| Apr 28 15:22:34 | 15m 32s | Beat Warriors | ♥ 1 | This game needs some time to get used to. And I think making enemies (or whatever it is) beatable when they are placed on the letters would make a game way less frustrating. The other complaint is about the need to leave my precious keyboard just to click 'play' and get the hand back from the mouse is really annoying. All the other aspects of the game are made very solid. Good work! |
| Apr 28 15:41:43 | 19m 09s | unBLOCK the exit! | ♥ 0 | What a wonderful monochrome pixel art! =) This game reminds me an old game I used to play on my father's Siemens ME45. It's called _Stack Attack_: hqdefault.jpg I like the mechanics that allows me to design my own level. =) It seemed easy for the first time, but then it struck me in the head with a stone block. |
| Apr 28 16:19:40 | 37m 57s | Super Bass Racing | ♥ 1 | So polished and so cool! I don't have a friend around, but it's definitely lots of fun to play. I added it to a collection to play with someone when I have a chance. I really enjoy this pixel art, especially the color scheme. And the music is also very well made. |
| May 2 06:49:21 | 86h 29m | Retroviral | ♥ 2 | The last two levels are the blast! =D Really cool! I had to restart the game just to check the controls but still it is an absolute retrowave fun! I love that sprite guys with their animations and the rotating tesseract inside the ball. Awesome work! |
| May 2 12:33:55 | 5h 44m | Indirectris | ♥ 0 | Hello from Novosibirsk, fella-linuxoid! =) I didn't manage to get your linux build work (I have `alsa-plugins` installed to a different place, ([here's the output](https://gist.github.com/Yngwarr/7f5897b420a97c09b89d3992e7038508)), but it runs perfectly from the source code. The game is hard to win, but very fun to just play. It feels pretty similar to _[Powder Toy](http://powdertoy.co.uk/)_. I really like the visual appearance, ASCII art is never too old. =) The game lacks polish, but it doesn't make a game less interesting (and I know how difficult it is to make a game distributable with Python, it's a real headache). Nice work! |
| May 2 13:15:34 | 41m 39s | Infernoculus | ♥ 1 | Brilliant work, guys! So incredible idea and so proficient implementation! I love everything about this game, from sprites and music to mechanics and different names for humans and computers. =) |
| May 3 09:45:20 | 20h 29m | Shady Cards | ♥ 0 | Solid work, I feel the mood of the reference (don't know much about MegaDrive's Batman, but still remember the atmosphere of _Batman Vengeance_ for GBA). Very interesting concept, I'm not sure to enjoy the platforming experience (everyone around is too fast, I think they are a bit nerveous), but I definitely enjoy poker. Maybe it would be better not to play two games at the same time, but instead to play poker in the beginning of each level or as a fighting mechanics. Also, sometimes the game seems to not see the valid combination when I'm absolutely sure about it. |
| May 4 13:56:21 | 28h 11m | Crazy Cube | ♥ 1 | Nice concept! Really cool idea about shooting from a side of the die. =) |
| May 4 14:12:33 | 16m 12s | Ultimate Hero Simulator | ♥ 2 | Sushi made of alien tentacles, GODDAMMIT THIS IS HILARIOUS! Comics-cutscene, epic soundtrack, a doggie and lack of support for 4:3 monitors! I love this game! =D |
| May 5 10:33:21 | 20h 20m | Dungeon Solitaire | ♥ 1 | Really interesting concept and great implementation! I love that sometimes I just can't finish the game and need to restart all the game from the beginning, just like the actual solitare game. =) |
| May 5 11:10:54 | 37m 33s | The Tower of Glass | ♥ 1 | Hmm, it's almost like a 2D version of [SUPERHOT](https://superhotgame.com/). =) I like the visuals and sounds. The mechanics is also very good. Nicely done! |
