Aug 14 07:58:07 Dear Leader's Diet Plan ♥ 1 Really love the audio! It was fun learning the mechanics and bouncing him around :D
Aug 14 08:53:03 54m 56s Falling Town ♥ 0 Something felt good about hoarding a lot of future skyscrapers, LOL hoards.PNG hehe.PNG Thank you for making this game! Love the art and catchy music :)
Aug 14 10:03:08 1h 10m Andromeda ♥ 1 Really enjoyed this game, it is deeper than it first seemed! Always pleasantly surprised when discovering a new resource/building. It gave me similar vibes to the text adventure game "A Dark Room". "The Journey has taken 2642 years" for me :) Cool that you used two interpretations of running out of space, and this game really has the sci-fi feel to it, it was great. The visuals for the ground and builds could be bigger!
Aug 14 18:40:03 8h 36m CATSITTER ♥ 1 This game is adorable, I had some laughs when I accidentally moved my mouse too fast into a bunch of cats and they all flew off at an amazing speed. Smooth gameplay with cute graphics and sounds, it was enjoyable playing your game!
Aug 15 03:08:23 8h 28m Words Dancer ♥ 1 Really cool concept and I enjoyed playing it! The mechanics of the game is quite unique and I like the time moving only when you move system, it gives players another way to strategise :)
Aug 15 03:22:51 14m 28s Taint - A LD42 Game by Pyja and BKAT ♥ 1 Lovely graphics and music for your game, one of my favourites so far! The levels have a smooth transition as well. There might be a bug where I cant jump at some point after dismounting the broom! I think this game has a lot of potential. Great job! :)
Aug 15 05:21:09 1h 58m Flesh Packer ♥ 1 A great entry with amazing humour, love the texts and clues that unfold as the game progresses! Music was spot on too!
Aug 15 05:32:37 11m 28s Spacebars ♥ 0 Very creative interpretation of the theme, and I love how the room reacts to the input of any key it has! Really lovely touch to it. Great entry!
Aug 15 06:51:53 1h 19m OPEN-ME.ZIP ♥ 1 I love this so much. The opening of the game and realising that I am functioning as a bot set a really interesting mood/feeling for me. The interactions are simple yet interesting and direct ways of presenting how a bot functions. I like how programmes are needed to be used for multiple actions at different times, with the theme incorporated well into that. Got a hunch when I reached the photographs, and teared up at the end. Amazing music, smooth gameplay transitions, and a storyline that is so well written and directed! Thank you so much for this game, it was really an experience! :')
Aug 15 07:30:32 38m 39s Move_LD42 ♥ 1 Nice animation for map generation and indicating where the player is on the map! The jump mechanic is different from usual yet easy to pick up, and overall it was neat game. I think a level system with different starting maps will be a pretty fun addition to your game, if you intend to work on it more! :)
Aug 15 07:53:52 23m 20s How to Bee a MailBee ♥ 0 This is a really fun game! The physics of the bee and package are pretty cool - I could push the boxes to recipients and attempt to throw the package at them if the dark space covered them, and that created different ways of completing a level. The music is upbeat and the pixel art is so beautiful! Thumbs up!
Aug 15 08:19:39 25m 47s Follow The Light ♥ 1 Ooh, gameplay was really smooth and audio was great! The sounds of the footsteps and jumps added a lot to the experience as well. The falling and double jump moments were fun when you hit space at just the right time and it takes you really far. The game made me want to continue playing for a long time, the challenge and reward feels just right :) I only stopped when I met the (likely) above mentioned bug!
Aug 15 10:43:54 2h 24m Feed cats ♥ 0 Pixel cats were cute! I loved it when the cats grew bigger, it's a nice surprise. I think being able to do something other than upgrades (such as stroking the cat to increase happiness, for example) would make it more interesting!
Aug 15 11:11:36 27m 42s She is helmet ♥ 1 The idea is really innovative! The art style is quite endearing as well. I beat the bread king but I think he sat on me and I died? I was a little sad, haha. Perhaps a checkpoint before bigger battles would be rewarding for players! ^_^
Aug 15 11:22:52 11m 16s The Legend of Cactus ♥ 0 Neat game, and I like the movement and bomb placement mechanics! Flying cacti are awesome. Perhaps a dash action could be added so we can move faster at times :)
Aug 15 11:38:54 16m 02s Steerbear ♥ 1 Lovely background, nice animations, cute bear - would have preferred it if mounting ladders were the arrow keys too, that'll be more intuitive :)
Aug 15 12:42:53 1h 03m The Subway: horror within ♥ 2 Incredible art with gorgeous character designs and a really cool skill set for the player! The varied responses of the passengers made it really fun. Love the small details in the artwork such as 666 on the train and the background of the train when you use the burst of rage skill! Amazing work!!
Aug 15 12:53:17 10m 24s Pop it! ♥ 2 Fun little game! The different popcorn and sound effects are really cute, and I liked how the smallest corn popped into the biggest popcorn with wiggly brows xD
Aug 15 13:24:30 31m 13s Pre Alpha Build ♥ 3 A really good game, really fun and addictive, and love the way the progression works! One of the best games I've played. Great pixel art and stunning soundtrack - I really love them. It has a lot of potential! :)
Aug 15 14:07:16 42m 46s Intergalactic Inhabitance Mission ♥ 0 Love the interface for menu screen, pause, and new highscore, with the alien symbols. Catchy tune and smooth controls that is quite intuitive! Neat game :)
Aug 15 14:25:33 18m 17s Space Runner 2048 ♥ 2 Nice game, I loved the physics of all the objects! Also like the theme of rubber ducks throughout the game. At first I thought, wow, a soothing little game, and then I met the black hole. The transition for the music at the start could be smoother. Finally won the game after about 5 tries, and I love the soundtrack on Earth the most :) Cute that you can still move the astronaut around there. Overall a nice entry!
Aug 15 15:30:52 1h 05m Mass Coalesce ♥ 1 The game is well put together - audio and mood was really amazing, I loved it! <3 Graphics are really neat and the concept of the world and species is cool as well. Gameplay can be more dynamic, such as solving puzzles, and enemies can be more threatening (hit harder)! :) Overall a beautiful creation <3
Aug 16 09:47:04 18h 16m R.O.O.M. (Really Obvious Objects Moving) ♥ 0 The concept fits nicely with the theme and I think the overall gameplay is engaging. I like the story the game tried to tell and the music was great! The maps were nicely designed - from the starting room to the hallway and puzzle rooms. I think that focusing on making the jump feel smooth and intuitive is important since it is the core mechanic of the game, and some changes (such as adding more visual cues, or making it happen at a slightly slower speed from normal movements) may help! Cool entry for first LD!
Aug 16 14:28:11 4h 41m Slay The Slimes ♥ 1 Really nice game! I tried both the compo and post-jam versions. The art and animations are really good, and the additions in the post-jam game made it even better! I agree that the post jam song is lit ;) I might've preferred the the classic controls of space being jump (like in your image for the post), instead of space as attack, though after some time I got used to it! I would've also liked the edges of the map to be clearer made so that there won't be any surprise deaths haha. I jumped too far in the post-jam version and only saw the "go back" sign when i reached that part of the map and inevitably died, though that was quite funny in its own way xD Overall smooth controls and has potential to become a rogue-like as you've mentioned! ^_^
Aug 17 10:32:55 20h 04m Where's my kingdom?! ♥ 1 I love how it feels like a board game in a video game, especially due to the 3D perspective :) The gameover page made me laugh, nice twist there XD Perhaps adding more troopers/units when new enemy units spawn or healing the troop after defeating a wave would make progression more rewarding! That said I really love the concept, smooth controls, and the unique experience the game gives!
Aug 17 10:45:18 12m 23s Vertex ♥ 1 Nice game, well polished and easy to pick up! Love the rate of advancement in the game and also the end where it scrolls to the bottom, neat animation there! The UI overall is really nice. Small thing though - if I spammed my arrow keys I can actually progress forever without penalty :p so perhaps you can add a penalty for a wrong key pressed if you decide to expand on the game! :)
Aug 17 10:55:40 10m 22s The Red pixel ♥ 1 Nice game! The animations are really nice and the overall design of the levels are well thought out. The controls were smooth and I really enjoyed playing this!
Aug 21 04:51:24 89h 55m Polar Panic! At the Disco ♥ 2 A really nice game - loved the graphics and audio! I think the concept of controlling with the water is unique, although I took a few runs to realise that we can combine ice sheets! Reached Disco Inferno after a few runs. Perhaps more specific physics could be added to the game, such as moving slowly when clicking and moving quicker when it's a click and drag on the water - so that we can control our ice sheets better :)
Aug 23 13:44:55 56h 53m grOw ♥ 1 Really cool concept and nice puzzle game! The red and green colours are very intuitive, and there are many possible ways the levels could be made, so it's engaging too. Maybe a speed power up in some levels that will make you move faster (but grow at a slower rate across the same distance) would be fun? :D Just a thought c:
Aug 25 10:02:37 44h 17m Inventory Apocalypse ♥ 1 Really fun, I enjoyed the game :) The interactions between the objects, such as purifying the water/adding water into the bottle was pretty cool :D The game doesn't fully fit my screen though!
Aug 25 10:34:48 32m 11s Save the Tomatoes! ♥ 2 This was super fun and my friend and I loved it! The graphics are adorable and music is enjoyable as well - and the levels were all so unique! One of my favourites this LD :) Capture.PNG
Aug 25 11:30:42 55m 54s HAMMERSPACE ♥ 1 Super fun multiplayer game! Rare to find multiplayer in LD but this turned out great, the concept is really good! :D
Aug 27 07:16:27 43h 45m Running Out Of S.P.A.C.E ♥ 1 Gotta _love_ those references, there're so many of them. It kept me playing for quite a while, and at some points I feel like, this must be the last level, right? But nope there are more challenges ahead! (I stopped at the fire level) It was fun though, would have continued if i had more time! Perhaps a steam gauge showing when our jetpack recharges would be good ^_^ Lovely graphics and music! Leeeroy Jenkins! :)
Aug 27 07:25:27 9m 00s You Wanna Pizza Me? ♥ 1 Nice game, would've liked to see my score at the end! I like how the theme was subtly incorporated into the mechanics :)
Aug 27 07:39:47 14m 20s Cube Disposer ♥ 1 This was pretty fun! The animations and sound effects made it really satisfying :) Got to wave 13 from the first, never thought I'd be afraid of cubes haha. The variety of the enemies made it really interesting too! I realised I never actually used Q/E, though I'm not sure if that would've changed anything xD
Aug 27 07:50:55 11m 08s Demonic Digestion ♥ 2 Amazing aesthetic, absolutely loved the graphics and audio. The gameplay was fun as well, I liked how the more you eat the more skulls there are. The huge skele was like _wow boss battle_ but ended sooner than I expected! I think all the small skulls helped, though if I get more control over the fight (more swords/other power ups maybe) it'll be even more fun. Super great overall :D
Aug 29 17:54:43 58h 03m Heirs Kingdom ♥ 1 This was hilarious and fun, really enjoyed it! Loved the interactions between the characters - made me think about how to build the kingdom better the next round! Sound effects were great. The king and queen didn't react to the baby falling off which surprised me but still, LOL.
Sep 1 08:40:19 62h 45m Disk Allocation: Typing Spectacular ♥ 1 Yay, I made it :D win type.PNG Lost the first time but got it the second time! The difficulty was just right in my opinion, with the upgrades and all. It gets really intense but really fun at the same time and I loved how each stage had its own theme (coding, music, school etc.). I absolutely loved the graphics and animations, both the player and enemies are really charming :) It feels like if this was the fighting mechanic of a full game with story and all it will do well! :) I didn't get any scripts at the very last stage+boss run after the upgrade though, I was worried though I managed to beat it. Perhaps one more script would be satisfying :D Oh and the script's effects work nicely too. I wasn't sure if I can keep all of them at once, though! I tried to limit myself to having 3 maximum at one point :)
