Aug 15 01:31:51 Tetrish ♥ 1 When I pushes some blocks into place and watched them disappear and cause a chain reaction, I felt rewarded! If you continue to develop this, when I saw several "S" shaped blocks, I didn't find a way to clear a row. Then I felt discouraged.
Aug 15 01:42:01 10m 10s Bag Man ♥ 0 When I saw the cute character and animals animating I felt charmed. If you continue to develop this, when I ran into similar looking rooms, I turned around and felt discouraged. Although you wrote down how it works, I started playing without reading.
Aug 18 02:19:27 72h 37m Blossom ♥ 0 When I watched the branch grow, I was enchanted. If you continue to develop this, when the red cloud covered the branches, I felt confused.
Aug 18 02:25:53 6m 26s Bath Time ♥ 1 Cute! When I tapped the cats in the tub and the made notes on the beat, I felt impressed! If you continue to develop this, it wasn't obvious to me at first how long I needed to swirl the cats.
Aug 18 02:31:17 5m 24s Bomb Factory ♥ 2 When I accidentally placed a bomb where a box was going to fall, I realized that's a pretty good idea, and felt clever! If you continue to develop this, with using left and right inputs with unpredictable drop locations in a small number columns, I died quickly and didn't recognize what technique I should practice.
Aug 18 02:37:32 6m 15s Stuck! ♥ 1 When I saw the lighting on the cylindrical travelers, I felt impressed! If you continue to develop this, when I shoved my way to the row above or below and no one filled in the space I was in, I felt a bit frustrated. I wasn't seeing how to progress.
Aug 18 02:42:55 5m 23s Crumble ♥ 2 When I almost jumped to the next pier, I felt excited! If you continue to develop this, when I tried rolling and jumping and didn't reach the next pier, I felt unclear how to jump farther.
Aug 18 02:46:57 4m 02s Pre Alpha Build ♥ 1 When I placed a blast cannon and it began shooting the creeps, I learned what I could build to kill creeps. If you continue to develop this, when I clicked on solar plant and some other buildings, I wasn't clear what they did.
Aug 18 20:13:08 17h 26m Proto Dash ♥ 3 When I released and dashed and destroyed a robot shooting at me, I felt awesome! All around excellent. The first level prepared me for what to do. If you continue to develop this, in the first level I didn't understand the difference between the red box and gray box. I also didn't understand which way would be the best way to go.
Aug 18 20:24:24 11m 16s EVOLUTION ♥ 1 5-stars excellence. When I placed a fishing boat and watched a person walk around I felt enchanted! If you continue to develop this, when I didn't see person that spawned pick up a resource or interact with other things, I felt unclear what the consequences of the people and vehicles were.
Aug 18 21:00:49 36m 25s A Way Out ♥ 1 When I shot and the wall moved back, I felt relieved. If you continue to develop this, when I shot a red ball my bullet bounced off it with no effect apparent to me, I felt unclear.
Aug 18 21:08:48 7m 59s Dear Leader's Diet Plan ♥ 1 When I repeated smashed Kim in a narrow corridor to purge blue dots, I felt efficient. If you continue to develop this, for a while, I didn't recognize when Kim was thin enough to exit. I also wasn't sure if the forks were something I should be dodging.
Aug 18 21:14:34 5m 46s Crystalmancer ♥ 0 When I flung darts at the bats with the energetic music, I felt quick. If you continue to develop this, after I died I wished I could see the control list again.
Aug 18 21:24:53 10m 19s Will Survive ♥ 3 When I chopped down a couple of trees at the edge of the light, I felt tense and clever! If you continue to develop this, when I started chopping, I wasn't sure if I should tap repeatedly or hold down the Space bar. Also when there was a tree near the fire, I wasn't sure which action would occur if I pressed Space. I wanted to chop but I fed the fire instead.
Aug 20 01:52:26 28h 27m Rainforest ♥ 2 5-stars! When I picked up boxes and dropped them off I felt challenged! If you continue to develop this, when I started I moved near boxes on conveyor belts and nothing happened. After exploring my keyboard, I picked up boxes and then brought them to shelves, and nothing happened. After exploring shelves I recalled something about the box size mapping to the shelf number.
Aug 20 02:00:35 8m 09s Get Comfortable ♥ 0 5-stars! When I pressed an arrow key to move and heard a funny sound, I felt amused! If you continue to develop this, I wasn't sure what was making the comfort score go up other than not colliding with a limb. I saw some messages that I guess were combos, yet I didn't comprehend a principle to apply.
Aug 20 02:06:53 6m 18s Space Invasion ♥ 0 5-stars! When I listened to the beat and jumped and avoided the spikes to get to the dazzling star I felt amazed! If you continue to develop this, at first I didn't recognize a spike among decorative foliage.
Aug 20 02:14:42 7m 49s TINY TOWNS ♥ 0 5-stars! When I built and saw a criterion toggle, I felt clear and clever! If you continue to develop this, when I swapped an arrangement to make a house happy, I didn't see the range of the park happiness.
Aug 20 02:24:02 9m 20s Overflow ♥ 1 5-stars! When I sped across the water and spun 180 degrees to return to the raft, I felt skillful! If you continue to develop this, at first I thought my boat could hold two passengers.
Aug 20 02:34:33 10m 31s Loot Keeper ♥ 1 When I rotated hats and boots to fit a sword and waistcoat, I felt clever! If you continue to develop this, when I clicked an item and then tried to drag it with my mouse, I felt confused.
Aug 24 01:22:07 94h 47m TrackBlasters ♥ 1 Perfect 5 stars! When I placed bombs at my own pace and decided between slow planning and fast driving, while listening to the pumping music, I felt entranced. If you continue to develop this, during the first race I didn't understand what action I was taking that caused a bomb to be placed. I thought I was pressing the space bar to place a bomb. By the third race I inferred that my progress around the track was placing a bomb. I admire this self-balancing schedule, but I didn't notice feedforward or feedback to show me that progress around the track was the cause of each bomb.
Aug 24 01:36:39 14m 32s Falling Ecosystem ♥ 0 When I sacrificed space to build trees, mountains and houses, I felt interested. If you continue to develop this, when I built every kind of structure except the face at the far right, I felt unclear what I needed to build that one.
Aug 24 01:45:08 8m 29s .S ♥ 0 When I jumped on the trail I made to overcome an obstacle, I felt clever! If you continue to develop this, the first level where I needed to do this, I felt frustrated, because I kept failing at the first obstacle in the level.
Aug 24 02:14:13 29m 05s Go Home JIM!!! ♥ 0 Is there a place where I can play the jam version? Without playing that I can't fairly rate the jam. Here's my comments on the post-jam version. When I found the cat and dragged the cat away, I felt I was managing. If you continue to develop this, when I didn't know which character was me, didn't know which keys to press to move, and didn't see which character was my target, I felt lost. After I dragged the cat, when the cat got pulled away, I didn't see how to improve my performance, I felt discouraged.
