Aug 14 00:27:57 Valdi: Shadows ♥ 1 Nice music, good graphics overall, interesting mechanics. I especially liked the level design, congratulations for having many levels, and thanks for not having too many so I could still reach the end of the game :-)
Aug 15 18:49:23 42h 21m Craig's Video Game made for LudumDare 42 That isn't even SLIGHTLY like Dig Dug 2 ♥ 1 A nice, clean implementation of the idea, I especially like the 45-degree grid. Also I don’t often see custom fonts in PICO-8 entries, good, your menu looks a little different from all the others :-) Things I would like: a better game over screen explaining what happened (it took me 5 tries to understand the rules, as I never played Dig Dug before), and obviously enemy AIs :-)
Aug 15 19:10:05 20m 42s Clod's Quest ♥ 1 The game mechanics are really interesting, but I only got to level 4 and I don’t know how may levels I am missing. Good use of the PICO-8 sprite scaling feature :-) Slightly better graphics and menus and this could be a very enjoyable puzzle game. Main nitpick: I believe you could improve the collisions (even if the clod grows as a circle, its collision appears to grow as a square, so it collects water diagonally and that’s a bit confusing). Of course that would maybe require to change all the levels, so you may not want that…
Aug 15 19:30:24 20m 19s Corrupted Space ♥ 1 Excellent graphics and music, and a very rich set of levels (though there could honestly have been fewer levels while keeping the game just as interesting). Two issues: 1) the level number does not seem to be displayed, and 2) there is one level with a key that is actually not necessary (but because of #1 I can’t tell you which level it was… 😃) Also thanks for sharing the timelapse; as a PICO-8 user it was very interesting to watch.
Aug 15 19:44:19 13m 55s Cubed ♥ 0 I keep dying very quickly… I think I did not understand how to jump higher… it just seems to happen from time to time… But I still managed to get 713 points, is that good? 😄 Congratulations for finishing a game! We all know how it feels the first time 😅
Aug 15 20:00:03 15m 44s Tetrolled ♥ 1 Well executed for such little time. But then, not surprising for anyone who’s seen your other work… My only issue is that for some reason I’m used to the up arrow rotating counterclockwise, so I could not give the game my best. @wheffle the boot-up intro is actually the standard PICO-8 boot sequence :-)
Aug 15 20:19:11 19m 08s The world is lava! ♥ 0 Well the game is surely not very polished, but I still had a few minutes of fun with it. I got to 114 points! I’m really curious to know what happens at the end, do you have a video? Or should I try again and again?
Aug 16 07:32:56 11h 13m Edge Of Space ♥ 2 Awesome game, as already mentioned! It could benefit from some balancing, because after playing it for quite some time, I find myself restarting the game again and again until 1) the first enemy waves are not too powerful, and 2) the first power up I get is the triple shot (definitely the best weapon from my experience).
Aug 18 11:25:09 51h 52m No One's Land ♥ 2 Good execution of the concept, the graphics are nice, and even the title screen is polished. It reminds me of an old Linux game I used to play in the late 90s but I can’t remember its name… Apologies to Timmy but two-player mode is a lot more interesting! I hope you manage to improve him somehow. Oh and please add an option to listen to the title music during the game! It’s so more relaxing! :-)
Aug 18 11:54:16 29m 07s Bunnies out of Space ♥ 1 Nice idea, nice pixel art, and nice audio. The game looks like it has potential for something *really* fun, but 1) I could not understand how the tunnels worked and kept building rooms instead, but it was still confusing because I did not always understand why such location was valid and such other wasn’t, also 2) it would probably be funnier if rabbits spawned continuously rather than popping all at once. Got to 408 rabbits though!
Aug 18 16:35:53 4h 41m Bookbinding ♥ 1 Here are my best ones: - vermin + hear → ham verrine (except **not** because [verrine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verrine) was not in the word list…) - the unthreaded boron + cashmere → burned cheated moron shat here - astral subgenus + vermin → genius mars travel buns An enjoyable little game, nice idea 😄
