| Aug 13 01:28:42 | Chief Data Engineer | ♥ 0 | I really liked this! Good to see some professionals getting into the competition (I'm assuming you're "the" Wyatt Chang). Love the Star Trek theme but more importantly I love this style of puzzle game. Only real criticism is it might of been nice to have some ambient noise, something classic star trek-esk in the background. Overall, great entry! | |
| Aug 13 01:35:25 | 6m 43s | Space Equations | ♥ 1 | I really liked the concept. There were a couple times though that I think the problem given wasn't solvable with the numbers on screen. Maybe that was intentional or I was just to panicked to find them. Audio was really good. |
| Aug 13 01:43:49 | 8m 24s | Memory Exception | ♥ 1 | Lol, I like what you had going here. The second level though I could never get the set of 3 blocks placed. I tried several ways like moving the initial blue ones back to the HD even before the yellows were asked for and then the same with the others but the user always ran out of patience. I may just suck though. |
| Aug 13 01:57:11 | 13m 22s | Green Cover | ♥ 1 | Very cool! Seems like sometimes I could cheat a little though. It would allow me to put blocks on top of blocks that already were green. They wouldn't snap back to the side and I'm assuming the code just says "there are not more pieces left to play, so you win". Other than that, very nice! As I played through it ignoring that cheat, I found myself really scratching my head on the last puzzle but finally managed it. |
| Aug 13 11:37:29 | 9h 40m | Deposition | ♥ 1 | Love the graphics. I had a really difficult time understanding what I was doing though. I like the idea of the type writer (which was beautiful) but controls I just didn't understand. I would have played through again but it took too long to get to where you do anything and there are a lot of games to be played :) I think with a bit of polish and control description it would have been a decent little play through though. Maybe a way to skip through story for those that have played once already? I liked some of the humor too |
| Aug 13 11:48:53 | 11m 24s | Adware Attack | ♥ 1 | This was pretty good, I'm honored to see my game title on the desktop :) I might have nightmares from the audio (but that's good, I liked the audio) I think my only criticism would be that it felt a little too real and as frustrating as real adware (even my virus scanner kept catching it, I had to disable it just to install). Overall, great entry! |
| Aug 13 11:57:52 | 8m 59s | Reductor (LD42 Comp Entry) | ♥ 1 | Wow! I love this, best thing I've played thus far. Very easy to understand. A difficulty setting would be a great update. Balance and polish and I'd probably buy this game. Possible bug, in some cases it looked like I was able to pass over platforms that disappeared without an issue. I only really seemed to fall through when going off the bottom off the screen or too far left/right past the last tile (like a full tiles width). Otherwise, audio was great but maybe a bit aggressive (one of my shortfalls as well). Please check out my entry: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/throwing-science-out-the-window |
| Aug 13 12:09:11 | 11m 19s | Path of Excess: Hoarder vs Horde | ♥ 0 | Always love checking out your entries, this was was maybe not as engaging so some of your others but still a really good entry. I loved the names on the weapons and that fact that I could read them in town but often I returned with too many items and the didn't all appear on screen. Controls were excellent and intuitive. Seems like this would actually make a really good mobile game if you could do something different than a hover for the tooltip. Might of been nice if you could see on the tooltip a comparison with what you had equipped already, on the other hand that might make it too easy and remove some of the snap decision you have to make. I found hard mode the most fun. I played this yesterday on the HTML5 version but that appears to be gone now (link still there but no game). Windows one worked too though. |
| Aug 13 12:15:29 | 6m 18s | Mitosis | ♥ 1 | I like the idea. Not sure I understand what I was doing or if there was a win/lose condition? I filled in as many cells as I could before having no legal moves and then nothing happened. |
| Aug 13 13:44:58 | 1h 29m | Continuum | ♥ 0 | I liked this! Simple but fun. |
| Aug 13 13:47:37 | 2m 39s | Space Hauler | ♥ 1 | Looks like itch.io is down. My game isn't running any longer either. We all probably crashed it :) I've bookmarked your game and will try later. |
| Aug 13 18:20:51 | 4h 33m | Rainforest | ♥ 2 | Neat game. Graphically it is really well done. I'm not very good with the style of controls (not your fault, I know that is a popular WASD schema). No complaints otherwise, nicely done! |
| Aug 14 21:48:24 | 27h 27m | Runnig out of Playables | ♥ 0 | There was some interesting stuff going on here unfortunately it was a bit slow moving and difficult to understand. I do like that idea of phases. Maybe also when choosing blocks it would have been nice to have something that shows which ones you selected prior to the event occuring. Friendly reminder that if you rate other games, more people will rate your game too |
| Aug 14 21:50:20 | 1m 56s | Running out of Hell | ♥ 0 | Unfortunately I can't get the rar files to unzip with WinRar or WinZip. Maybe upload a normal zip? Friendly reminder to rate other games and you'll have more people check out your game as well. |
| Aug 14 21:54:15 | 3m 55s | BIO BAZARD | ♥ 1 | Same, rar file is not widely used any more and for whatever reason all the ones I've tried to unzip it fail to do so. |
| Aug 14 21:59:02 | 4m 47s | Kakapo | ♥ 1 | I like this, my only issue was that I seemed to get some odd collision once in a while that prevented me from moving. |
| Aug 15 22:17:32 | 24h 18m | Ultimate Boss Battle of Doom | ♥ 1 | Great game! Simple but creative. Mechanically it took some getting use to. Graphics were great. I did several playthroughs and sometimes it seemed like enemies just stopped spawning completely and I had to restart. Can't replicate that every time I play though. Nice job! |
| Aug 15 22:23:58 | 6m 26s | Circle Swarm | ♥ 0 | Hey that's pretty cool. Which is had some sort of music. Some sort of power-ups would have been great. Maybe like temporary increase in size of the shield or something. Otherwise very nice job. |
| Aug 15 23:13:51 | 49m 53s | Detox | ♥ 1 | Fantastic game! Very enjoyable. I"m not sure what constructive criticism I could provide, I really liked it. |
| Aug 15 23:19:38 | 5m 47s | Encumbered - Deckbuilding Inventory Action | ♥ 0 | Not bad. Better instructions would definitely have helped but once I realized I could use zxcv I got much better. |
| Aug 16 21:24:11 | 22h 04m | RoboCoup | ♥ 1 | I like the art style. It was entertaining to play but as I found myself replaying it, I wish there had been a Restart option on the game over screen as well as a way to skip the initial sequence dialog. Overall nicely done. |
| Aug 16 21:31:02 | 6m 51s | DOS: Deletion (of) Old Stuff | ♥ 1 | Not bad but I couldn't ever really get the hang of it. Level 2 was just beyond my skill apparently. Liked the look and sound was good. Nicely done. |
| Aug 16 23:12:04 | 1h 41m | Ouch! | ♥ 0 | I rather liked this! I wasn't very good but i played several times. I liked how when you died you just jumped right into a new game. Gave me the drive to keep trying. Might of been nice if your player flashed or something when the bonus was about to run out. Sometimes 5 seconds seemed like forever other times like it was no time as all and almost always when I was near a wall it would go away :) |
| Aug 17 10:31:26 | 11h 19m | Zlinx | ♥ 0 | Hey this is really cool! I'm going to have to hook up a different keyboard with less sensative sparebar later and give it another go just because I enjoyed it. The third platform (angled with the spikes above it) was exceptionally difficult to get around but once I did I felt like I could go a lot further (hence I'm gonna play again later). Nice job! |
| Aug 17 13:43:51 | 3h 12m | Deadly Confines | ♥ 1 | Very enjoyable! Might of been nice if I could have used scroll wheel to swap weapons. I really really liked this one, well done! |
| Aug 17 16:28:30 | 2h 44m | Orbital Chaos | ♥ 1 | I couldn't get past 36 but omg was that fun! I played many times. Maybe a fun factor would be if randomly when you launched a satellite it would be a different type that had varied speeds compared to others. |
| Aug 17 17:10:13 | 41m 43s | Loneliness | ♥ 2 | I really dislike First Person games because they make me dizzy but that isn't your fault. What I was able to play before I couldn't take it any more was good. Controls were responsive though sometimes lining up to open a door didn't seem like it wanted to trigger when I pressed E. Visually it was great, that's a lot of work for a Jam. Nice job. |
| Aug 17 19:00:38 | 1h 50m | EVOLUTION | ♥ 1 | The game looks amazing. I just there would have been of a point/strategy to placing buildings. Mechanically it all seemed to work really well and the animation and sound was on point. I did feel a bit depressed and sad for the planet, maybe that is what you were going for. Overall I liked it. |
| Aug 17 19:06:35 | 5m 57s | Gunning Out Of Space | ♥ 0 | Hey that's pretty great! At first I was pissed because I couldn't auto fire and then I realized really quickly why that would have been a very bad design choice. I don't really think there way anything in the game that I'd change except maybe make it a bit more clear in the beginning that if you miss, that's where the green blobs come from. Oh, nice transitions too. |
| Aug 17 19:12:20 | 5m 45s | Captain Graphite | ♥ 1 | It was overly obvious what I was suppose to be doing and the controls felt off. But with a little more time I think you'd really have something fun. The graphics are wonderfully child like, I loved them. The sound effects were good and the lasers from the Saucers were well done. What the heck were those things I was collecting? Overall I did like this entry. |
| Aug 17 20:13:35 | 1h 01m | Flood Of Pirates | ♥ 1 | I like a lot about this game and had fun. Be sure to post a blog about it if you continue development so we can play it again :) |
| Aug 17 20:16:50 | 3m 15s | Ice n Fire | ♥ 0 | Not bad, I liked the concept. I would turn off the, what I assume is, coordinate system that is overlapping the score a bit. I enjoyed it though! |
| Aug 18 12:10:34 | 15h 53m | Pizza Defender | ♥ 1 | The only thing I missed from this was sound. There could have been some great *munch munch munch* type sounds or maybe "piiiiiiiizzzzzzzzzzzaaaaaa" in a slurred zombie tone :) Overall I really enjoyed this and found it kind of funny. One criticism, I'd avoid doing Flash games. They're getting to the point where players have to do way to much to allow the browser to play them and I wouldn't be surprised if soon they prevent it completely. |
| Aug 19 15:56:26 | 27h 45m | MondrianCraft | ♥ 1 | I think it could be fun but it was just pretty much randomly picking up blocks and trying to get them to stick together. Didn't appear to be any skill involved, correct? Definitely not a bad entry though. |
| Aug 19 23:28:51 | 7h 32m | Nooooo! | ♥ 1 | I really sucked at this game but I liked it all the same. Nice job |
| Aug 20 23:15:35 | 23h 46m | The Lonely Moon | ♥ 1 | An interesting clicker. Maybe an indicator that says what you need to do when you launch a satellite would be nice, I didn't realize I needed to do anything more than click buttons on the side until reading your full description. |
| Aug 24 11:55:48 | 84h 40m | Oddblock | ♥ 0 | I enjoyed this! Music has the same problem my own game does, repetitive and annoying after awhile. Game controlled well but wasn't until I read the How to Play that I figured out what was going on. I managed a time of 111 and a score of 76 on my last play-through. Nice entry! |
| Aug 26 12:39:35 | 48h 43m | Holine! | ♥ 1 | Not bad. The startup screen was really good, wish there would have been way to get back to it after you lost a game for reference. |
