| Aug 12 23:30:04 | Real Espace | ♥ 1 | An interesting take on the classic formula a'la Icy Tower. Quite polished in terms of craftsmanship, but could use a bit more variance in the gameplay. | |
| Aug 12 23:51:00 | 20m 56s | Shrinkage | ♥ 1 | Tetris with extra punishment. Depending on your love for the original, either an interesting new challenge, or an exercise in getting punished for what seems like the proper thing to do. |
| Aug 13 00:25:27 | 34m 27s | Petra | ♥ 2 | A very simple concept made into an extremely enjoyable game. The audio and visuals fit together like a charm, creating a relaxing, homely atmosphere. There are 18 levels total, and it's not nearly enough - well, enough for a 48h compo, but I just want more! I'd gladly throw some money at the author if they made a 100 level version. :) |
| Aug 13 00:55:53 | 30m 26s | Stop the Darkness | ♥ 1 | On the first playthrough, this game seems rather simplistic. However, the more you play, the more you discover the various intricacies to this game's mechanics. Though you don't need to be a master strategist to win, there's a lot of content that strategists will find to their liking. Don't let the graphics fool you - this game is bigger than it appears on the surface. |
| Aug 13 01:23:12 | 27m 19s | Tetrolled | ♥ 1 | The game surely lives up to its name! Prepare yourself to be relentlessly, mercilessly trolled by the RNG, as it decides to spawn a random block just where you wanted to drop your piece. |
| Aug 13 01:41:15 | 18m 03s | House of Dog | ♥ 1 | An interesting take on the theme. The mechanics, while simple, are rather unintuitive, so be sure to read the help screen before playing. |
| Aug 13 01:52:12 | 10m 57s | Utter Space | ♥ 1 | A very literal take on the theme. The core gameplay is rather simple, but the "assemble a door" mechanic is quite fun. Overall, while the game may not be very innovative, the sense of humour and quality of execution make for a really fun way to spend a couple minutes on. |
| Aug 13 02:12:44 | 20m 32s | backSpace-X | ♥ 1 | A rather standard Tyrian / Gradius clone. While the core gameplay is fine and quite enjoyable, the balance could use some work - after playing the game once or twice, it's easy to stay alive long enough to max out your weapon, and after that you're pretty much invincible, since the scrap metal (that you can use to repair your ship) from destroyed asteroids comes in so fast that you can heal yourself fifty times. |
| Aug 13 07:29:14 | 5h 16m | The Decline | ♥ 1 | It's a shame there's no sound, because otherwise this would be a solid compo entry. A good pick for people who enjoy the Dwarf Fortress kind of challenge - because losing is fun! |
| Aug 13 12:38:20 | 5h 09m | Escape through the Void | ♥ 0 | Minimalistic, but fun. It took me a while to understand that the strange noises is actually a person saying "XXX built". :D |
| Aug 13 12:54:14 | 15m 54s | shipme (Starbase Shipping Simulation) | ♥ 1 | A very nicely done game! It's a bit of a shame there isn't any kind of goal to reach, since after playing a bit one gets so accustomed and the money flows in so fast losing stops being a concern. Still, the audio and visuals are really impressive for a jam game! |
| Aug 13 13:03:59 | 9m 45s | Inventory Rush | ♥ 0 | A simple idea making for an interesting gameplay. Having to avoid NPCs and manage the equipment at the same time proves quite challenging. Could use some audio and some visual cues on what's happening. |
| Aug 13 13:25:59 | 22m 00s | Return of the Sea | ♥ 0 | Simple and fun. Plays very much like a single-player board game. Bit of a shame there's no sound. |
| Aug 13 13:37:56 | 11m 57s | Laser Rails: Chase! | ♥ 1 | Yeah, robot cowboys! The visuals are very nice, but the movement is a bit awkward and the scoring is a mystery to me. Still, for a 48h compo, this is a mighty fine entry in terms of overall quality. |
| Aug 13 14:03:12 | 25m 16s | Oh no! This is monsters! | ♥ 1 | A fun game about mindlessly killing everything that moves, with an added element of an ever-shrinking play zone. With some bonus pick-ups and an achievement system this could very well be a full-fledged commercial game. |
| Aug 13 17:12:13 | 3h 09m | Closed Trail | ♥ 0 | If you know what a "line rider" is, then this game is basically the same concept, except you leave a bold trail behind, which blocks your movement. While the idea might be interesting, the execution is - unfortunately - rather poor, as there's no sound, the graphics are very minimal (and pixelated), and the overall feeling is one of "eh, as long as it works". |
| Aug 13 17:41:08 | 28m 55s | HELP: The Illuminati captured my family and are forcing me to make this game | ♥ 2 | Kinda like the Pandemic games, except that as far as I can see, there's no real way to lose apart from making stupid choices. While the game doesn't provide much of a challenge, it's main advantage is its absurd sense of humour and funny graphics style. Good for a chuckle. |
| Aug 13 17:50:17 | 9m 09s | stROLL | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept! The graphics are also quite nice. The gameplay, depending on one's perspective, can be seen as either very challenging, or very frustrating. The way the compo's theme is used in the game is just devilish - you WILL need to restart the game a few times before you'll be able to get all of it right. |
| Aug 13 17:59:37 | 9m 20s | Out of Space Inc. | ♥ 2 | Very fun and interesting concept, giving a chance to play around with some physics. The controls are a bit hard to use, especially when there's multiple thrusters on a single object. |
| Aug 13 18:42:11 | 42m 34s | Data Overload | ♥ 0 | Simple concept with neat execution. It's a shame the game doesn't present much of a challenge, as the box drops don't seem to speed up, so you can basically play forever. |
| Aug 14 13:30:01 | 18h 47m | Falling Ecosystem | ♥ 0 | Nice game, I really enjoyed it! The only feature I've found missing was some kind of fast-forward once there are no more empty tiles. Still, this is really well-polished and extremely fun to play. |
| Aug 14 13:44:13 | 14m 12s | Get Comfortable | ♥ 0 | A ridiculous interpretation of the theme leading to a ridiculously fun to play game. |
| Aug 14 14:15:02 | 30m 49s | Overflow | ♥ 0 | Great game. The audiovisual style is simply gorgeous - it's just not possible not to enjoy it. The controls are bit hard to master (especially the walljump), but apart from that issue, it's a very fun game to play. |
| Aug 14 15:00:52 | 45m 50s | Windoge 96 | ♥ 1 | Meme overload. Overall it's quite a nice game, just a shame there's only two minigames. |
| Aug 14 15:14:08 | 13m 16s | Detox | ♥ 1 | The simple concept, combined with a distinct look and feel make for a very entertaining game. There isn't much depth, but the game moves on so fast that it hardly matters - you just want to take another shot at getting a good score. |
| Aug 15 14:36:13 | 23h 22m | Mindblocked | ♥ 1 | A very solid game. The audio and visuals fit together nicely and create a really nice atmosphere. The puzzles are often quite treacherous, with the solutions turning out to be so easy that you feel like an idiot for taking so long. I had a blast playing this. |
| Aug 15 15:12:15 | 36m 02s | Enduring Light | ♥ 1 | A really nice and simple shooter. It's a real shame there isn't any audio, as that'd make the game way more fun. I like the art style. |
| Aug 15 15:33:52 | 21m 37s | Save the Tomatoes! | ♥ 1 | A very solid entry. The overall quality is great, and the game is really fun to play. Highly recommended. |
| Aug 15 19:08:42 | 3h 34m | Space Scrap! | ♥ 1 | Good game. The visual style is great - a shame there isn't any audio to match. The gameplay is rather confusing at first; some kind of tutorial level would definitely help ease the learning curve. |
| Aug 15 20:02:39 | 53m 57s | Trash Mage | ♥ 1 | Simple and fun, but boy does my finger hurt from all the clicking. |
| Aug 16 12:19:02 | 16h 16m | Stacy The Muscle | ♥ 2 | "Oooh yeah". The gameplay is simple and enjoyable. The art style is very pleasant to the eye. Good job! |
| Aug 16 16:43:15 | 4h 24m | Pervertica - CCG | ♥ 1 | The visuals are really nice, but holy smokes, the difficulty! The gameplay quickly goes from engaging to outright frustrating. Apart from that, a really good job. |
| Aug 16 16:56:42 | 13m 27s | Ice Interstice | ♥ 1 | Really nicely done! The graphics are cute and the music and sound effects fit right in to create a cuddly, homely atmosphere. The puzzles themselves display a good skill curve. My only complaint is "more levels plx"! |
| Aug 16 17:12:10 | 15m 28s | We Have Important Work To Do | ♥ 1 | Yet another desktop simulator... but how nicely done! The ads are reminiscent of the early interwebz, and the malware effects are just plain awesome (especially Miku-chan). I also loved the "old computer" background noise. |
| Aug 16 17:31:52 | 19m 42s | Sofamino | ♥ 3 | A great, humorous take on the classic Tetris theme. The audio-visual style is nice and consistent, and the gameplay, while slightly frustrating at times, is very rewarding. A very solid game! |
| Aug 16 17:48:30 | 16m 38s | Space Hauler | ♥ 1 | Nice entry. The core gameplay is rather simple, but still very satisfying. The visuals and the audio fit together nicely and create a relaxing atmosphere. Good job! |
| Aug 16 18:22:40 | 34m 10s | Eating Sim | ♥ 1 | Awesome. The scoring is a bit hard to grasp at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's a very entertaining game. |
| Aug 16 20:13:56 | 1h 51m | The Unfortunate Story of Hans | ♥ 4 | Nice and simple. I hope you'll continue working on this after the rating period is over. |
| Aug 16 20:56:02 | 42m 06s | Demonic Digestion | ♥ 1 | I really enjoyed the art style. The gameplay itself is simple, but enjoyable. It took me a while to notice that the colour of the trail left by the head represents the health. Good job! |
| Aug 16 21:41:53 | 45m 51s | Countdown | ♥ 0 | The art style is interesting, but the game itself is a complete mystery to me. I've tried it four times and I still have no idea what to do. Do I need to find a certain combination of items? I noticed I can select an item using keys 1-3, but there isn't any way to actually use them. If I stay outside, sometimes my items are not taken away at midnight. Also - damn, I don't know where this prison is located, but it's already dark as hell by 2pm. **:P** |
| Aug 17 08:48:24 | 11h 06m | CATSITTER | ♥ 2 | Cute - cute, I tell you! I think it could use a time limit or some other mechanic for extra challenge, since currently the gameplay, while enjoyable, isn't very varied. The art style is adorable. |
| Aug 17 09:36:42 | 48m 18s | Gridlock | ♥ 1 | Nice and simple. The graphics and the music fit together nicely and create a lovely atmosphere. I wish there was a bit more to the gameplay, but either way, it's a neat little game. |
| Aug 17 10:37:01 | 1h 00m | Pineapple Run | ♥ 1 | Good game. The audio and graphics fit together nicely, and the gameplay itself is easy to grasp and enjoyable. My only complaint would be about the lack of difficulty scaling - I was able to reach 1500 points and frankly, by that time I got a bit bored. The game could, for example, speed up slowly over time, to make it more challenging. Either way, this is a very fun entry. |
| Aug 17 11:12:02 | 35m 01s | Mr.Tobro | ♥ 1 | The low-rez graphics make it a bit hard to figure out what's happening at first, but once you get it, it's a lovely little game. I liked that there's different types of towers and how you have to keep running through your camp and activating the towers. The game sometimes experiences slowdowns when there's lots of bullets on the screen, but that's a minor issue. Overall - well done! |
| Aug 17 11:43:58 | 31m 56s | Valdi: Shadows | ♥ 1 | Nice and simple. The audio and graphics fit together nicely, creating a very retro atmosphere. The puzzles are quite fun, especially once Shadow Valdi appears. I really enjoyed this and I'd gladly play a version with more levels. |
| Aug 17 12:54:04 | 1h 10m | CubiCo | ♥ 2 | The core gameplay is simple and enjoyable. The puzzles are just the right difficulty - not as easy to become boring, not as hard to become frustrating. The art style is consistent and creates a nice feel. Overall, good job! |
| Aug 17 15:55:03 | 3h 00m | Quest for freedom | ♥ 1 | A small game with a short session length. The graphics are okay, and the sound effects fit them nicely. I played the web version on itch.io and it feels like the viewport size is messed up a bit, as e.g. the time is not fully visible. Also, I managed to push the enemy over the floating box to the right and that didn't count as a win. |
| Aug 17 16:06:49 | 11m 46s | Corrupted Corners | ♥ 0 | Fun little game. The concept is very nice, and the art is very pleasant to the eye. There are some minor bugs (e.g. sometimes I could not build on empty squares, and some squares stayed protected after the beacons were destroyed), but it's still playable and enjoyable. |
| Aug 17 19:22:55 | 3h 16m | Space Lost | ♥ 1 | Nice game. The visuals are very nice, and the music fits right in, creating a very soothing atmosphere. The gameplay is enjoyable, it's just a shame that the game is so short. Otherwise, good job. |
| Aug 17 19:31:20 | 8m 25s | PistonBreak | ♥ 0 | Great little game! Very interesting gameplay idea. Just a shame there's so few levels. Also the menus are partly obscured by the title if you run the game in low resolution (I used 1280x800). |
| Aug 17 19:54:31 | 23m 11s | Alternating Space | ♥ 1 | Neat little game. The visuals are simplistic, but together with the slightly ominous music, create a nice style. The puzzles are interesting, just a shame there isn't more of them. Overall, a very enjoyable game. And hello to a fellow Fedora user. 😉 |
| Aug 17 20:11:46 | 17m 15s | Growing Out | ♥ 1 | Just plain awesome. I really liked the fact that the game plays on a single map - it's just amazing how each time the Mr. Blob enlarges, the level, despite staying the same, plays totally different. The graphics and audio fit together nicely, and create a very homely atmosphere. I love it! |
| Aug 18 16:46:21 | 20h 34m | BulletMan | ♥ 1 | I liked the bullets-become-obstacles mechanic, it's interesting. The visuals are quite nice. I got a bit fed up with the floating heads sticking to the hero and chomping them to death, though. |
| Aug 18 17:29:22 | 43m 01s | Invasion Failed | ♥ 1 | Simple idea with a really nice execution. The visuals are very pretty and the music, uh, rocks. Good job! |
| Aug 19 17:15:37 | 23h 46m | Pats Pack | ♥ 1 | I like this game. The gameplay is simple and engaging. The tempo is quite fast, but I think it's a good thing - it encourages the player to just keep on running, rather than take it slow and devise tactics. My main complaint is that enemy spawns don't take the player's current position into account, so it's totally possible to have an enemy spawn right in front of your face - there should be some minimum distance that has to be kept between the monster and the player. |
| Aug 19 17:59:21 | 43m 44s | Slime Escape | ♥ 1 | Simple idea with a nice execution. The levels are treacherous, which combined with no checkpoints makes the game a bit frustrating, since you can't re-try the moment you died on - you have to go all the way from the beginning. But I like that, it makes the game more of a hard-core challenge. The music is nice and the visuals create an enjoyable atmosphere. |
| Aug 19 18:11:59 | 12m 38s | Cybermind | ♥ 1 | The controls are tragic - having to wait for the robot to go through an accelerate-decelerate motion every time you want to move a tile is just painful, especially when combined with the fact that you can't just hold a key to go into a certain direction - you have to tap it again and again. The visuals are very nice and the music is pleasant; relaxing, even. There's not much to the gameplay, which is a shame, because once again - from an audio-visual point of view, this is quite a solid entry. |
| Aug 19 18:43:48 | 31m 49s | SINGULARITY | ♥ 1 | Enjoyable, minimalistic style. The gameplay is simple and intuitive. Good job! |
| Aug 19 19:21:46 | 37m 58s | Ultimate Furniture Stacker X-Treme | ♥ 1 | The controls are a bit tricky, since the character's movement is relative to where they're looking at (which means - where the mouse pointer is at), not relative to the room - but once you get used to that, it's a neat little game. I like the visual style. The music is very pleasant and rhythmic; the "announcer" also sounds cheerful and makes you want to play more. Really good job! |
| Aug 19 22:09:29 | 2h 47m | ClapBang | ♥ 1 | It took me a while to understand how picking up items works, but once that's out of the way, it's quite an enjoyable game. The AI, while simplistic, can still sometimes put up a challenge. If you feel like making a post-compo version, this could turn out to be a very interesting game. |
| Aug 20 14:07:11 | 15h 57m | The Space Between Us | ♥ 1 | Small, simple, pleasant. |
| Aug 21 23:38:49 | 33h 31m | Evercloud | ♥ 1 | A really good entry. The graphics style is very pleasant to the eye and the music makes for a nostalgic atmosphere. The story is simple, but still engaging. Good job! |
| Aug 21 23:56:49 | 18m 00s | Take care of her | ♥ 2 | Wow, this was unexpectedly deep. There's not much in terms of gameplay, but since this is basically a visual novel, that's not an issue. The graphical design is smooth and pleasant, the music also fits each memory very well. There were a couple typos, but that's a minor issue. Overall, I'm impressed with your take on the theme and the overall quality. |
| Aug 22 00:03:46 | 6m 57s | Don´t Hit The Ducks! | ♥ 0 | Fun idea. The graphics and music are very pleasant and create a relaxing atmosphere. A neat little game. One subtle bug I've found is that if a deer and a rabbit align when you take a shot, the game deducts a missed shot for each of them, so you can end up with a score of -1. **:)** |
| Aug 22 00:13:47 | 10m 01s | Dish It Out | ♥ 0 | A neat little entry. Weirdly relaxing. Mastering the throws is difficult, but rewarding. Nice job. |
| Aug 27 14:55:06 | 134h 41m | The Red pixel | ♥ 1 | Quite enjoyable, but it's a shame there's only a few levels. The final boss fight was rather boring. Also the game would be much more enjoyable if it had some audio. Overall, it's not bad, but a bit underwhelming. |
| Aug 27 15:55:11 | 1h 00m | Deluge of Doom | ♥ 0 | The game is enjoyable, but the mechanics are very simple, and that makes it rather uninteresting past finishing it one time. The graphics are nice, but the lack of sound makes it a bit boring. Also, it took me a while to discover that the map extends past the viewport and you can drag it - this could be explained on the title screen. |
| Aug 27 15:59:42 | 4m 31s | Blocks | ♥ 1 | Simple and fun. The red blocks should spawn a lot higher, as when you jump up, you can actually jump past the spawn height. Other than that, it's a solid, fun little entry. |
| Aug 27 16:25:33 | 25m 51s | Vita Magicae | ♥ 0 | Really good. The art style is very pleasant to the eye, and the music really heats you up for battle. The enemies are quite tough, but well, that's to be expected of a bullet hell game. A very solid entry. Good job! |
| Aug 27 18:37:25 | 2h 11m | Commander, We Have a Problem! | ♥ 1 | Nice, I enjoyed it. The game is very simple gameplay-wise, but balancing all the resources takes some skill. It's a bit of a shame there isn't any goal apart from "survive the most days" - on Easy, I was able to find a safe setup where all off the resources were steadily rising. It would also be nice to be able to rotate the buildings. Still, those minor issues aside, this is a very solid entry. Good job! |
| Aug 27 19:09:35 | 32m 10s | Alchemist Dungeon | ♥ 1 | Simple and enjoyable. The mix of sprites using different scales it a bit jarring, but other than that, the audio and the visuals are very pleasant. A nice game with a lot of replayability; I only wish there was an "infinite" mode where exiting one dungeon would lead to the next. |
| Aug 27 19:44:42 | 35m 07s | Space Escape | ♥ 1 | A great exercise in frustration, I gave up once my time spent in last level outweighed the previous 9 stages combined. The graphics and audio create a nice, consistent style. The stages are hard just enough to make you shout profanities and yet still want to keep going. Good job. |
| Aug 27 20:35:37 | 50m 55s | Ultimate Cave Of Dangers | ♥ 1 | A nice entry, but way too hard. I like the procedural generation of levels - allows you to try again and again until you master the controls, or roll an easier level. It's a bit of a shame there's no game over screen, and that there isn't any sound apart from the music, but either way, it's a fun entry. |
| Sep 2 19:51:50 | 143h 16m | GRIDLOCKED | ♥ 1 | Fun little puzzle game. The controls are a bit clunky, but once you get past that, it's very enjoyable. It's a shame there's no sound. I think it'd be nice to have little numbers flowing down the wires to give a better view of what's going on (though on the other hand, that would reduce the challenge). |
| Sep 2 20:28:48 | 36m 58s | KnightTime | ♥ 0 | Fun little game. The gameplay is simple, yet challenging. The sounds make the game even more fun to play. I have to admit though, I didn't really find any connection with the compo theme. |
| Sep 2 21:22:16 | 53m 28s | Bath Time | ♥ 1 | Oh man, this is so cute I gotta check my blood sugar. The art style is very pleasant, and the concept of washing dirty ~~kitties~~ meowmies is adorable. It's fascinating how such simple gameplay can be so appealing! The game was a bit hard - it took me a long time to get past level 5, but even then, it wasn't really frustrating. Overall, this is a very, very solid entry. Amazing job! |
