| Aug 12 23:25:20 | Pizza Defender | ♥ 1 | As you say, the game has some bugs, but I wouldn't worry about it too much. The artstyle totally makes up for it! It looks great and very funny. :D If you really want to I think I read in the rules that it's allowed to fix bugs? Don't take my word for it though, it's my first entry as well. :) It should be on the rules page though. | |
| Aug 13 00:07:07 | 41m 47s | Character Assassin | ♥ 0 | Looks like fun! Unfortunately I don't have anyone to play with right now. I'll try to check it out tomorrow! |
| Aug 13 00:18:54 | 11m 47s | Stacked Odds | ♥ 0 | Really nice! Love the overall style and how well it plays. Also, thanks for adding an easy mode! ;) Only side note I can think off is that it's a little hard to follow (at least for me), with so many columns and numbers in there. But it could also be that I'm not that great with numbers. 😄 |
| Aug 13 00:25:14 | 6m 20s | Anatomically Drunk | ♥ 1 | Very cool! It's suprisingly satisifying when you get a good punch in. :) |
| Aug 13 00:43:38 | 18m 24s | BadPhone | ♥ 2 | Love it! It's funny because I think this is recognizable for anyone that has had the misfortune to have to deal with a crappy phone. :) The graphics are great and the controls worked flawlessly for me. Only (really small) nitpick I have is with the phone's angle. I would have like to see it tilted slightly more towards the camera. |
| Aug 13 00:50:42 | 7m 04s | No More Space in Space | ♥ 1 | Nice work! I liked the light stripes in the sidebars. Makes it look fast, nice detail. :) |
| Aug 13 01:00:58 | 10m 16s | Space Factory | ♥ 1 | The background moving faster when you accelerate time is a nice touch. |
| Aug 13 01:16:10 | 15m 12s | Packboy | ♥ 0 | Good stuff! The black and white art style is nice and game concept is cool. I got some unhappy customers while it looked like I had plenty of time left though. Not sure if that's a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. :) |
| Aug 13 10:00:26 | 8h 44m | Running out of Space | ♥ 1 | Nice, cool concept! :) |
| Aug 13 10:11:35 | 11m 09s | Grocery Runner | ♥ 1 | Good job! Looks easy, but was actually pretty challenging to me. I agree with the Anonymous comment though. It's kind of hard to look at the UI while you're playing the game. Maybe you could have some text pop-up when you pick up an item telling you "Wrong item" or "3 left" or something. :) |
| Aug 13 10:33:18 | 21m 43s | Byte blasters | ♥ 1 | Nice! Like the pixelart, it's really simple but charming. :) Also really like the screen effect on the beat of the music. It's a nice detail, but could be a little bit more subtle as it's quite strong now and because of that a little bit distracting. |
| Aug 13 10:59:47 | 26m 29s | Volka | ♥ 2 | Excellent! This is the best entry I've played so far. It really has that "just one more try" feel. I think this would be a great fit for mobile too. Only fault I could find is a small bug where the big black/red circle stays red after you die when it's red and then retry, but that's just nitpicking. :) |
| Aug 13 11:31:25 | 31m 38s | Beeb's Adventure | ♥ 0 | Really like how the little alien look! The trippy song fits well. The gameplay feels a little bit flawed to me though. I think that's mostly because you always jump the same distance/height. I think it would help a lot if the distance jumped was determined by how long you keep space pressed. That way it's a little easier to make the smaller jumps. :) |
| Aug 13 13:29:08 | 1h 57m | Sink or Swim | ♥ 3 | Good stuff, really nice artwork and audio. The overflowing sink is a nice detail. 😁 |
| Aug 13 13:46:27 | 17m 19s | Dimitri's Revenge | ♥ 1 | Nice concept. Looks cool and I found it challenging. Would be even better if the controls would feel a little bit more responsive. |
| Aug 13 13:57:25 | 10m 58s | Space Depot | ♥ 0 | Nice, I enjoyed the menu screen the most actually 😁, the graphics of it and the music are great! The hitboxes are bit off though. I got destroyed a couple of times by trash that should have counted as a pickup. |
| Aug 13 19:32:10 | 5h 34m | Brand new shop | ♥ 1 | Nice work! Art looks great! Minigames have nothing to do with selling cellphones of course, but I found that kind of funny. 😄 I liked that you made a proper tutorial, shows the level of polish you put into it. |
| Aug 13 19:49:48 | 17m 38s | minicipality | ♥ 3 | Very nice! You made a city builder as a puzzle game work really well. One little nitpick is that for me my city became more than 50% road. 😆 I think it would be nice if you'd allow the roads in the pieces to overlap with existing roads on the map when you place them, if that makes sense. |
| Aug 16 21:57:43 | 74h 07m | LimitedLootHunters | ♥ 1 | Well done, fellow first-timer! 😁 I like the concept. The graphics are simple, but effective. Too bad there isn't any audio. Also, it seems like the first two dudes die really quickly. I would've expected that the dude in front would function as a tank or something, but that doesn't seem to be the case. |
| Aug 16 22:07:49 | 10m 06s | Collapse | ♥ 1 | The concept is cool! It reminds me of one of the Paper Mario games (for the Wii I think?). It's pretty buggy though. A detail I liked is that you added some camera movement in 3D to simulate walking, instead of just floating. 🙂 |
| Aug 16 22:34:34 | 26m 45s | Reply All | ♥ 1 | Nice work, fellow first-timer! 😁 Great concept, has a lot of potential. |
| Aug 16 23:01:58 | 27m 24s | Running out of RAM - an 80s BASIC programming simulator for C64 | ♥ 1 | Really cool! This feels like one of those games I would spend an afternoon typing into my (ok, my parent's) Acorn Electron from a book as a little kid. 😁 The gameplay is cool, although a little slow, I spent a lot of time just pressing 1. Maybe an option for spending a longer time programming would help with that. |
| Aug 17 13:27:04 | 14h 25m | Forklift Frenzy | ♥ 1 | Nice job! Really enjoyed this one. The controls are a bit hard to get used to, but once you do it feels really satisfying to move the truck around. The graphics are really nice. Starting a new game after losing doesn't work right though. The number of missed deliveries doesn't get reset to 0. So you lose instantly if you miss one. Also, some audio would have made it even better. 🙂 |
| Aug 17 13:41:33 | 14m 29s | Little Man Computer | ♥ 0 | Nice take on the theme. The audio is really good! The gameplay works well, although the rough collision detection can make it a bit frustrating at times. BTW, there's not such thing as unnecessary explosions. So plus points for those! 😁 |
| Aug 17 14:00:57 | 19m 24s | Personal Space | ♥ 1 | Impressive work! I like the graphics, especially the characters, they're funny. 😁 The mechanics work really well and the walking audio is a nice detail. One thing that might improve the overall experience is have by adding some camera movement while you're walking. |
