Aug 19 09:50:37		Getting Some Space	♥ 1	I loved the audio. It was sweet and complemented the feeling of the piece really well.
Aug 19 10:44:49	54m 12s	Zachary's Memory	♥ 1	The concept of the game made it super interesting to explore. Finding ways to bucket thoughts and feelings was such a unique experience. The way the buckets would explore different timelines, the overlap between them, and the image the story paints of this person's life. Was truly a comfy and mind-picking experience.
Aug 19 11:04:44	19m 55s	Evercloud	♥ 1	The first time I played, I went down into the ship before jumping off and got stuck in that compartment because there was no ladder out and the doors were not powered, so I had to restart after a while. Then I made it as far as blowing up the hatch, powering the doors, and being told it's time to sleep, but could not sleep in the bed.
Aug 19 11:10:07	5m 23s	Gut Feeding	♥ 0	Idea of managing two systems simultaneously, gameplay was pretty repetitive though and I grew tired quickly. I had a high score of 45!!
Aug 19 11:22:08	12m 01s	Clot!	♥ 1	Really attractive game. Game mechanics are cool. Kind of difficult. Had the same issues as some others in the comments where I was unable to push blocks most of the time and was unsure of how to collect points. Is really cool otherwise. Replayed a couple times. :)
Aug 19 12:17:00	54m 52s	Smoke: it's ok to feel	♥ 3	## I LOVED THIS. Great environment, great use of storytelling and character building through subtle dialogue, humorous and moody, fitting and beautiful aesthetic. I really liked the way you incorporated the theme as well- it obviously wasn't disregarded but included in the narrative. I TOO WANT A SPACE LAGER
Aug 19 12:54:36	37m 36s	HELP: The Illuminati captured my family and are forcing me to make this game	♥ 2	This was a really fun game. As mentioned above, gave me great Pandemic feels. Earlier in the comments someone said there's no way to lose... But I totally caused the indiepocalypse. ### Pros - Humorous and fun - Variety of consequences/events - Challenging - Unique visuals for each interaction ### Cons - Almost too much humor? Game didn't take itself seriously enough to feel invested. World can die, idc. - Audio was repetitive/stressful - Gameplay began to feel repetitive towards the end Overall a great jam game and I enjoyed it. I love this type of game.
Aug 19 15:23:59	2h 29m	Miss Eyesore	♥ 2	## PROS - Scary as hell. - Lighting, models, n environment are well done. - Sounds and overall mood are fitting. ## CONS - Gameplay confusing - Unforgiving, makes it difficult and frustrating - Gameplay alone makes it hard to pick up on what you're supposed to do to avoid the monster Fun because it's scary but after you play it 2-3 times it looses its oompf
Aug 19 15:42:14	18m 15s	Boxcorp Employee Training	♥ 1	## PROS - fun idea, stacking boxes fun at first - like the overworld idea - good level system ## CONS - trying to stack boxes is boring/tedious - why am I stacking boxes i want to quit my job and become artist - am i even getting more than minimum wage for this 'job'
Aug 19 15:52:36	10m 22s	Night Shift	♥ 1	Cool visuals
Aug 19 16:05:49	13m 13s	Little Shop of Junk	♥ 2	## PROS - really cute graphics - super polished - cool take on theme - goal straightforward and easy to pick up on ## CONS - Not much replayability, gets repetitive cute game, enjoyed
Aug 20 10:15:51	18h 10m	Blast Off	♥ 0	Cute game, love the aesthetic. Like someone above in the comments, I wish there was some sort of hit feedback. Also, I'm not sure if shooting the spiders did anything. Cool idea though, and the game is pretty fun.
Aug 20 10:53:28	37m 37s	Displacer	♥ 1	### Pros - Loved the humming tune - Fun game mechanics - Wasn't hard to pick up on what to do ### Cons - I wish the humming tune was louder - Something in the beginning pointing in the direction of the pawn shop would be helpful - Levels/goals that can be met quickly would help so that the game feels more rewarding and doesn't run on too long Overall a really fun jam game :)
Aug 20 11:04:57	11m 29s	Eye to Eye	♥ 1	I played this with someone and we tried to wait out the acid on our turns to kill each other. Then, we both died in the center pit like twice on accident. It seems like a wall-jump would have saved us, but we could only stick to the walls and not jump off. Also, it would be entertaining to be able to jump off of the other player's head. I was able to jump on top of the other character but not off of them. I like the turn-based style with the stress of rising acid.
Aug 20 11:15:16	10m 19s	Storage War	♥ 1	Cute models -- I love the bunny girl! 🐰
Aug 20 11:56:56	41m 40s	Space Rabbit	♥ 1	Had fun playing level 1, but couldn't get through level 2. The sounds are a little intense and not very comfy. The art for the rabbit/carrot/portal is super cute I just wish the platforms were in the same art style. Cute game!
Aug 20 12:02:59	6m 03s	Knight General	♥ 0	Fun concept!
Aug 20 12:27:12	24m 13s	The King's Board	♥ 1	I really enjoyed this game. I got someone to play it local with me and we had a pretty good time, although we didn't finish the game because my opponent walked away 🙃 This game is perfect for people who love chess and want to try a new game mode. The rules are easy to get used to and the pace is faster than chess. I can easily see this being a game played online with friends in a turn-based style where you log on and make your move for the day, playing over a long period of time. The sprites are cute and work well. I feel like you should have opted out of audio for the jam ratings though! Had a lot of fun, awesome work. kingsboard.png
Aug 20 12:35:15	8m 03s	Danger Do Not Inhale	♥ 1	I imagined my character holding their breath in the purple stuff because of the title of the game :P
Aug 20 13:12:44	37m 29s	Take care of her	♥ 2	Really sweet story of Daniel's life. I felt so guilty throwing away his memories! 😢 Some critique: Some of the very diagonal text can be hard to read in large paragraphs, and it would be really cool to see some movement in the graphical elements even if it's just some slight rotations/rocking back and forth. Here's the mess I ended up making of his memories: her.png
Aug 21 12:55:07	23h 42m	Roomy's Party	♥ 1	Game is cute and fast-paced and the music is fitting and up-beat. Pretty fun little game. My critique would be that it would be cool to see different sprites for the people and have the main character be more unique, and to give some extra gameplay element like a way to shove people away from you so that the game lasts a bit longer, similar to what @snowdrama was saying. I got a score of 290 😃
Aug 21 13:36:08	41m 01s	MNTL BLCKS	♥ 1	This game is hilarious! 😄 I was not expecting to have so many choices and such a wide range of responses available. This was really cool. I just wish there were some sounds, even if they were some royalty free music tracks, because it got really quiet in my room while I was playing and sort of impacts the aesthetic of the game. I made it thru the final round although I had to do the date mission twice because I whiffed it by talking about The Land Before Time. Emile just doesn't understand me. I played with someone else and we were both giggling the whole time. The dialogue is pretty great. P.S. I played version 1.1 with the more legible modules and text-skipping accessibility updates which I think improve the experience quite a bit.
Aug 21 14:22:41	46m 33s	Shake It 'Till You Make It!	♥ 1	LOVED the music for this and how each instrument you grab changes the tune! Very cute and well-paced puzzle game. The text screens in between levels were well-designed and pretty funny. I'm a true cumbia dancer now 😊
