| Aug 14 06:57:58 | Dot Connector | ♥ 0 | Dot Connector is an abstract puzzle game in the vein of Two Dots, Chat Noir (http://www.gamedesign.jp/flash/chatnoir/chatnoir.html), Lights Out, etc. Here, the goal is to draw paths connecting selected dots. Because the dots are selected (seemingly) at random by the game, scoring feels arbitrary. I'd also like to see a click-and-drag style interface. On the plus side, the concept is cool and could be something great with a little clever tweaking, | |
| Aug 14 07:16:25 | 18m 27s | Housing Crisis Island Wars | ♥ 1 | Housing Crisis Island Wars is one of those node-based RTS's, like https://www.kongregate.com/games/gamezhero/tentacle-wars or Eufloria (is there a better name for these?). I like the twist of being able to build different structure on the nodes, and also the idea that population is what kills you. All the pieces of a neat game are here, but it could use some more balance. Right now, it seems there is just one 'best' strategy (build 2's, then 1's when you have to), though it's not enough for me to conquer all the islands... |
| Aug 14 07:33:09 | 16m 44s | Gnome Miner | ♥ 0 | This is a micro-version of the inventory-space problem in every RPG: trying to carry the most valuable haul you can out of a dungeon. I was able to get 2040 (all pink gems) on my second try, so maybe it's too easy? |
| Aug 18 13:01:02 | 101h 27m | Freezing Sky | ♥ 1 | Everyone survived! This is a solid management game. I enjoyed the mechanic of having two levels open at once, but knowing that the top one wouldn't last forever; even with the small set of building here, this offered a lot of depth. |
| Aug 18 13:09:08 | 8m 06s | pushes you | ♥ 1 | I love that it's not just a "twin stick shooter". The pushing mechanic and the fact that the enemies' shots can push each other makes for interesting plays. |
| Aug 18 13:26:06 | 16m 58s | Where the Cloud Lives | ♥ 1 | Impressive level of polish! |
