| Aug 14 18:14:30 | Last in Space | ♥ 1 | Decent game! The "fling" movement mechanic is interesting but I think it's a little unbalanced right now. It's similar to old-school space game trajectory controls but being able to stop instantly gets rid of the challenge from counter-acting your momentum to stop/slow down. It would be interesting to see how it plays out if you preserve momentum through movement actions. I could also super-launch the character by dragging the line from the left side of the screen all the way to right. Having the ability to instant-stop paired with the ability to super-launch across the screen kind of trivialized the game. In short, I think I was able to beat the game without the intended experience. Balancing the movement mechanic and/or the level design might help! I like the map concept and the fact that there is an objective. I can imagine this being turned into a exploration game with branching paths and multiple possible objectives. | |

Trying to keep all flowers alive made me feel kind of overwhelmed but the more I played the easier it became to manage. Definitely better with a controller. Mouse controls might make the keyboard option easier. Great job! |
| Aug 15 15:49:08 | 34m 57s | Pocket Pets | ♥ 1 | Nice graphics and good use of the theme! |
| Aug 21 17:05:11 | 145h 16m | Outta Space | ♥ 0 | Good job! Great use of the theme and pretty funny. I did not expect the "glitched" in-game OS. Figuring out what to do after the glitchy stuff started was kind of confusing. It turned it into more of a puzzle game which is great- just unexpected. |
| Aug 21 17:20:37 | 15m 26s | Space Farmer | ♥ 2 | Interesting game idea but I think the pace is way too fast. I couldn't even use up all the farm space because the plants would be ready before I could plant 1 row. |
| Aug 21 17:40:47 | 20m 10s | Zero Star | ♥ 1 | Good game but really short. It would be nice to see more levels in the future. |
| Aug 22 02:12:48 | 8h 32m | Block Drop | ♥ 0 | Really fun puzzle game! I think the difficulty increases at a nice pace. |
| Aug 29 16:33:37 | 182h 20m | WearOut | ♥ 0 | Descent idea for a game but poorly executed. My advice is to focus on the core game mechanics over everything else. The only mechanic in this game is hitting the enemy, which is fine, but it is unbalanced. I could just stand there and kick constantly forever racking up points- not exactly fun :/ . The page says the platform can only hold 3 enemies but that's not in the game. That's a shame because that could have made this game a little more interesting. Also I noticed a bug: You can't hit enemies if you are to the far left of the platform (Happens in html5 & Windows versions). |
