| Aug 13 18:18:14 | Your Friend Compo | ♥ 0 | pretty cool, especially the irritation system! | |
| Aug 13 18:25:47 | 7m 33s | Stack Overflow | ♥ 1 | at the beginning controlling the blocks was quite hard, especially as WASD maps rotated of 45Β°. could have had the camera look at a face directly to make it easier. graphics and audio very polished. overall good game! |
| Aug 13 18:32:55 | 7m 08s | Stuck! | ♥ 1 | great game, cool polished graphics, loved the fact that I had to push between different rows and satisfying throwing out of the subway the guys close to the doors π |
| Aug 13 20:59:45 | 2h 26m | SHOOTAN | ♥ 2 | graphics are phenomenal. gameplay is interesting with the mix of popups and shooting, but way too easy. enemies are very slow and do almost no damage. overall it was fun, well done! |
| Aug 14 11:17:30 | 14h 17m | Breathing Room | ♥ 4 | great game, had really fun playing it! good graphics, cool mood, and the monsters are stylish! I would just tone down a bit the amount of enemies as most of the time it was mayhem! good job π |
| Aug 14 16:49:33 | 5h 32m | no-kill | ♥ 1 | fun game! was expecting something completely different from the title but I got it. liked especially the art and the music with dogs barking at a rithm! only moving felt a little too slow, maybe that can be sped up! cool game overall! |
| Aug 14 17:13:44 | 24m 11s | Prog-Jet vs Guardians | ♥ 1 | cool game, a bit disorienting at first like other mentioned that the camera just snaps into position and that turns only happen on a fixed grid. with those fixed and increasing speed it has potential :) |
| Aug 14 17:29:26 | 15m 42s | Dumpotopia | ♥ 2 | art is spot on, really polished. controls feel smooth and responsive, and also the message of the game makes you think. great job! |
| Aug 14 17:44:24 | 14m 58s | TINY TOWNS | ♥ 0 | fantastic game, puzzle were hard in the beginning (especially 1st one since the mechanics took a while to understand), but felt very balanced in the next levels. definitely a lot of potential. I would just add somewhere a number indicating which level out of how many you solved. great job! |
| Aug 14 18:09:11 | 24m 47s | Overflow | ♥ 1 | very relaxing, except for the 3rd level :D |
| Aug 14 18:52:43 | 43m 32s | Out Of Mind | ♥ 2 | cool game! I can see the style of BlackThornProd in your art :D |
| Aug 14 21:23:05 | 2h 30m | Uninstall | ♥ 1 | fun game, loved especially the take on the personality of the different apps! good job with the sound also π |
| Aug 14 21:29:23 | 6m 18s | Smart Gecko | ♥ 1 | nice puzzle, loved especially the name π if you go too fast however it doesn't register the tile you were on and you don't eat the fly. should make sure that always happens |
| Aug 15 15:28:50 | 17h 59m | Slow Access Memory | ♥ 1 | Great concept, it was very enjoyable solving this little puzzle, and the graphics and controls were super! You could have added a simple win message when you reach the final part of the puzzle, and the robot can intersect with some walls, but with a few more programs and levels this would be a polished fun game! |
| Aug 15 16:49:59 | 1h 21m | Laser Rails: Chase! | ♥ 1 | Wow, I must say that I really enjoyed the feeling of going around with a jetpack! that was smooth and especially when much far from the train going at high speed was great! however once close to the train the enemies were quickly annoying and you couldn't do much. I think if you focused more on the chasing aspect and avoided the player going faster than the train, it would be a great game! |
| Aug 15 17:52:19 | 1h 02m | No disk space | ♥ 0 | great game, I played it for waay too long although I couldn't figure out the other endings without looking at comments :D both the color palette, the look and the sound all came together to make a very enjoyable experience. well done! |
| Aug 16 10:44:01 | 16h 51m | Bullet Farmer | ♥ 0 | I enjoyed this game, the art is polished and the mechanics are easy to grasp. having limited bullets that have to be either used for harvesting or shooting makes an interesting twist and adds depth to the game. the only complaint is that I couldn't use WASD to move and the mouse for aiming and shooting (withouth the auto aim mode), that would have made the game even more enjoyable for me. good job! |
| Aug 16 11:30:52 | 46m 51s | Forkin' It Up | ♥ 1 | Nice game! as others have mentioned, the controls for the forklift are a bit weird and takes time to get used to it. WASD on keyboard would be better, with maybe Q/E to raise/lower the forklift. I would also make it clearer that you can only interact with marked boxes. other than that fun entry! |
| Aug 16 12:49:05 | 1h 18m | Will Survive | ♥ 3 | fun game, I enjoyed it. mood was great. it became a bit repetitive in the end, I think if you allowed the player to setup other fires by burning trees or when you have enough wood it would make the game much more interesting. also sometimes you die when you think you still are in the light, if you are close to 6am that's pretty frustrating |
| Aug 16 13:06:43 | 17m 38s | .S | ♥ 0 | the game is pure genius. a great take on the platform genre, pretty easy to understand and graphically clean. I just wish you could see somewhere the level #/how many are there and maybe a system with 3 stars based on completion time. great job overall! |
| Aug 16 21:36:42 | 8h 29m | Space Intruder | ♥ 1 | fun game, pretty straightforward but it sucks you in until you manage to beat it. incredibly hard btw, graphics could use a bit more love. sound was excellent! |
| Aug 16 21:54:34 | 17m 52s | 6 K | ♥ 2 | wow, what a great entry! hat a ton of fun playing it, graphics and sound effects are incredible and really pleasing, the pace is right and you get a ton of satisfaction from the game. Only things I would improve are the spawnpoints of the enemies, not only 4 fixed but having them come from everywhere otherwise you can stay in the middle and shoot diagonally. other than that, great game! 5/5 π |
| Aug 16 22:06:29 | 11m 55s | Running Out Of Spice | ♥ 2 | very fun game, enjoyed the hell out of it! graphics and audio are 100% on point. the text that appears when you pick up spices was hilarious too! complimenti well done! maybe the only remark would be to also allow WASD to control the spaceship, other than that great job!! |
| Aug 16 22:22:36 | 16m 07s | Hello Ground | ♥ 2 | Real fun game! Loved the graphics and the falling whales :D |
| Aug 17 13:51:05 | 15h 28m | Deadly Confines | ♥ 1 | what a great little gem! the game was fun, sprites well made but the best part was hands-down the music, I really enjoyed it! great job guys π |
| Aug 17 21:03:36 | 7h 12m | Orbital Chaos | ♥ 1 | Unique game, very simple to pick up yet it gets even more challenging the more you play it. the decision of which orbit to send the satellite to adds a layer of depth which is really enjoyable. well done! |
| Aug 17 21:07:23 | 3m 47s | duty madness | ♥ 2 | cool game! it took me a while to manage to pickup the items (needed to be close enough :D) but once you get the hang of it it's pretty addictive! would maybe work a bit on what the customers say to improve variety |
| Aug 18 07:40:45 | 10h 33m | Camp Snuggle | ♥ 1 | very interesting premise! the game runs smoothly and it was very responsive. rotating the guys works well if you have a mouse and fitting them around the fire, moving those closer to the center outside as if they were barbecue was definitely fun! well done! |
| Aug 18 09:37:33 | 1h 56m | The Hero's incredible Chronicles | ♥ 1 | ahah you sir win everything! 5/5 humor! graphics were also very nice, I enjoyed this entry! even though it could have been a bit longer, other than that great job! |
| Aug 18 10:29:38 | 52m 05s | RainForest | ♥ 0 | ahah great game, we had the same idea for the title :D I really enjoyed playing this entry, good job! I would however make some small icons instead of only text for both items and categories (leave the name, but add something visible) such that you don't have to read too much text and you can go faster! |
| Aug 18 12:14:12 | 1h 44m | Pizza Defender | ♥ 1 | wow great game, I really enjoyed it! when I saw it in the feed I had to play it! loved the art style, broccoli are too cute! here are a few suggestions: add audio (can be simple, ie shoot/eat/die), and somewhere a score of how many you killed/score. not sure if you have more enemies but I only got tomato and broccoli, seeing some extra variety would also be good. also, don't have ranged bullets (I get that you want us to move but bullets disappearing is annoying) and make the enemies less bullet-sponges, if you can kill them with fewer shots the gameplay gets more frantic and fun. I would love to come back to the game if you expanded it π cheers! |
| Aug 27 11:50:51 | 215h 36m | Deadlock | ♥ 1 | very interesting game! I loved especially the sound effects as an old computer in the background, mood was also excellent! unfortunately I couldn't see how the theme fit. good job overall! |
| Aug 27 11:56:40 | 5m 49s | Chambers | ♥ 1 | damn next time put a screenshot so I know what I'm getting into! game was interesting, the creature definitely scared me! It just wasn't obvious what was the goal in the beginning, and maybe adding an effect for feedback when picking up an item would improve the game. otherwise great work for your first entry! |
| Aug 27 16:52:50 | 4h 56m | Obey | ♥ 1 | fun game, I enjoyed it! it was however quite hard in the beginning to understand the controls and what was the goal of the game. otherwise good job! |
| Aug 28 07:46:11 | 14h 53m | Oh no! This is monsters! | ♥ 1 | the best thing about this game imho is the weapon variety. it feels really great to be able to choose between such a wide range of different weapons, and having to balance the ammo. if the ammo was a bit scarcer it would be even more fun! what I think could be improved are the graphics. I like the pixel art for the character, weapons and ammo but the enemies seem in another style. making the colors and pixel size a bit more consistent would definitely improve it. good job overall! π |
| Aug 28 07:49:07 | 2m 56s | Easter Shabobble | ♥ 1 | cool game, i guess you really like bunnies! game run smooth and was enjoyable. I would just make the pickup animation a bit faster as it slows down the experience |
| Aug 28 15:40:54 | 7h 51m | Bath Time | ♥ 1 | wow, one of the best games I played this jam! while at the beginning the premise was a bit funny, I really enjoyed cleaning kittens for the whole 10 levels! the cats are extremely cute and the game is super polished, which really adds to the overall experience. I played on the web but of course this makes much more sense on mobile. great job overall! |
| Aug 29 13:21:59 | 21h 41m | Heirs Kingdom | ♥ 1 | wow that was a super fun game to play! I really enjoyed the mess of what was going on when you run out of space on your platform :D music was also great and so were sound effects, overall a great game! |
| Sep 3 16:23:03 | 123h 01m | Boxcorp Employee Training | ♥ 1 | good game overall. here is some feedback: pro: - loved the graphics. very cohesive style, really cool, stands out - the theme is right on point - guided audio tutorial definitely helps con: - bugs in which the boxes fall through floor. this defies the purpose of the game - I found room 1 already too difficult. couldn't beat it and the system with 3 bars (red/yellow/green) wasn't clear enough for me to understand - you smooth the mouse input to turn the camera. this quickly leads to sickness. just get the input raw from the mouse such that the game feels snappy with some improvement I would definitely come back. good job! |
| Sep 3 16:31:44 | 8m 41s | Thereβs No Place Like Home | ♥ 1 | some feedback: great graphics, both astronaut as well as asteroid and jetpack boost are pleasant to look at. magic command using tab is great, had to come back to check it out :D con: the game is way too fast, can't survive more than a few seconds which makes it too frustrating. you should definitely start out slower and then gradually increase speed. seeing how long you lasted/how much you traveled (like a score) would also make the game more complete and interesting. finally, audio could also help out |
| Sep 4 18:15:30 | 25h 43m | ECO WARRIORS | ♥ 0 | what a great game! this was definitely one of the most enjoyable I played in this LD. the final bonus mission really made me happy as I thought I already finished the game! Loved the humor, audio and graphics, not to mention the super animations and effects. Would love to see more weapons and levels for this game as it was extremely fun. Two things you can maybe improve is to make it more clear when you are reloading (more sound/animation) as I was often surprised I could not shoot anymore, and also maybe increase the bullet per mag count. I would **LOVE** to see a tutorial from you on how you developed this, especially animations and explosions, as I think we could all learn a lot from you. Keep up the fantastic work! π |
