| Aug 13 00:09:00 | EVOLUTION | ♥ 1 | What a wonderful game! Your art is even better than usual, and the animations are lovely. I love you interpretation of the theme and the message it’s sending.Very gore and disturbing too in the end. A game I will share with my friends! | |
| Aug 14 11:05:50 | 34h 56m | give-way-for-sails | ♥ 0 | The music is neat and the game is FUN. Very well done. For me the difficulty is just a little bit too high, which makes my sessions a bit too short, but that's always very personal. Maybe a way to avoid that would have been to start quite slow and raise the speed over time? But again, very fun and simple in the best kind of way. |
| Aug 14 11:19:08 | 13m 18s | The Island Of Decay | ♥ 0 | Congratulations for finishing your first LD game! We all know how impressive it can be and how much work it is. I must say the graphics look nice, but I have no idea what to do so I just walked around and explored the map until I died of dehydration xD Keep making games! |
| Aug 14 11:28:05 | 8m 57s | Waste of Time | ♥ 2 | Awesome teamwork! The graphics look nice and the sound effects fit the game nicely. The controls are quite hard though and you can't always see what you are doing. Also I did not really understand why I lost most of the time, I suppose it could be a bit more clear. Keep making games! ;-) |
| Aug 14 12:52:45 | 1h 24m | cargOS | ♥ 1 | Love the art! You are developing a real skill for it (and I should do the same). The music is fitting the mood perfectly. Maybe a next time you can try to duplicate your pattern a few times a just add a little bit of variation? It's a bit hard to catch the boxes, especially when they are moving, but I love the concept. I'm thinking this could be great with a drag-and-drop mechanic, and maybe upgrades to buy more teleporters, buy more room to store... Might also work great on mobile? But you know better. Excellent job mate! |
| Aug 14 14:18:32 | 1h 25m | Proxemik - Personal space invasion | ♥ 1 | I love the art style and animations! Your take on the theme is also very original and funny. The game itself is simple but efficient, with just enough mechanics to properly defend yourself against those disrespectful huggers. Well done mate! Keep making games ;-) |
| Aug 15 12:19:19 | 22h 00m | Quicksort | ♥ 4 | I needed a minute to adapt to the controls, but after that I could control the robot without any problem, and was mashing the keyboard to organise shelves etc. I also needed a minute to understand what I had to do, even if it was quite obvious ^^' But I really had fun once I understood everything! It didn't feel tedious "like work" for me because it was fun to try and memorize where I put every box, so when the marker pops I knew where to go (not everytime). At the end I had everything well organized but one box never showed up... 2018-08-15_14h10_17.png Final Score 155 So I had to wait and it never came. It killed the flow for me. Maybe a simple trick would have been to only request crates that are on map, or least will arrive soon. Other than that, it's really well made and FUN! Audio would be awesome for next time. Maybe next time we could team up for audio? |
| Aug 16 17:00:26 | 28h 41m | Freezing Sky | ♥ 2 | I'm a huge Frostpunk fan so I have to like this game. It seems like a ton of work to do all of that just by yourself, so congratulations already! The sound design is cool and the voices add personality to the game. One very small detail that could be improved is that fact that you can select a building and decide where to place it even if you don't have enough resources. I'm not 100% sur how they fixed this in Frostpunk, I think the building stays red so you can never place it. One last thing, sometimes buildings are selected and you can't deselect them very easily. I tried to deselect everything by pressing Escape and my whole game was lost :( I know it's a tradition in LD to quit the game just by pressing Escape, but a little confirmation wouldn't hurt sometimes ;-) Keep up the awesome work! I'll check your steam game and I hope you can use your steam money to support more projects in the future. |
| Aug 20 13:29:59 | 92h 29m | Big Chickies | ♥ 1 | The art and music are amazing! Not a huge fan the gameplay though. Controls don't feel very good either. I really like your take on the theme, having chicken run out of space because of their own eggs is very original. I will quote another game dev (who thought me a lot) by giving this small tip for LD : What doesn't fit 100% with the theme, don't do it. This tips helps me a lot when scoping. This is only my opinion but for me shooting was not necessary and it hurts the gameplay even. With that time you could have polished the controls and the rest of gameplay. I know first hand how hard to work as a team though, so these are only ideas to improve, of course you did an awesome job overall! Keep making games guys ;-) <3 |
