| Aug 12 20:19:12 | Snake the platformer | ♥ 0 | Man, I wish I would have had an idea like this. Super simple but unique and fun to play! I would personally have tried to make it look a bit fancier, with some actual textures or shaders or something, but that's partially a matter of taste. | |
| Aug 13 23:20:55 | 27h 01m | Manspreader | ♥ 1 | This really made me laugh. Very simple game which by itself wouldn't be too interesting in my opinion. But together with the art style and the funny theme, it makes for a very nice game. And even though the game play isn't too interesting (neither is mine) it somehow is still enjoyable to play. |
| Aug 14 09:59:01 | 10h 38m | Dystopia Tycoon | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea, I however really sucked at it, so the 'out of space' aspect didn't even come into play for me. But I see how that would have worked :) |
| Aug 14 10:38:47 | 39m 46s | Human Powered Rocket | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea, very original, inspired by minecraft's old mob packing by any chance? It did get rather easy once I understood the controls however, reaching every goal with the first attempt. Could perhaps have tried to add some more difficulty. |
| Aug 14 10:47:40 | 8m 53s | Rise and Shine | ♥ 0 | The constant rotation made me a bit dizzy (Which I get easily) so an option of some kind would have been nice. Other than that it is a nice looking game, but probably would have worked best on mobile. It is rather simple for a desktop game. |
| Aug 14 11:11:43 | 24m 03s | Night Shift | ♥ 1 | Wow, very nice game! It is both a puzzle and a skill game, I love it! I wish I would have thought of this (Though I wouldn't have pulled it off as well anyhow). |
| Aug 14 14:02:31 | 2h 50m | Arrows | ♥ 1 | Very simple but enjoyable game :) Only thing that I can really see being improved are the visuals, but that's just my opinion. Apart from that I am wondering if you can make this work for mobile, because the simplicity of it it could work out great on a mobile platform. Only issue is to figure out how to make proper controls for that, so it might not be doable. Very nice entry anyhow, fits the theme very well! |
| Aug 14 14:11:55 | 9m 24s | Void Worker | ♥ 1 | I was not a big fan of the controls either, but will provide some more concrete remarks: I would rather have used A and D to turn, and W and S to move forward and backward in the direction you are facing. I liked the fact that the controls were a bit slippery though. Apart from that, it did fit the theme very well. Just the controls and the graphics could have used some work in my opinion. |
| Aug 14 14:27:57 | 16m 02s | Stack City | ♥ 0 | Not really my type of game, but I like the idea. Execution also seems decent, but I didn't play for very long and wasn't very good at it. |
| Aug 14 14:45:10 | 17m 13s | Jelly! | ♥ 0 | Cool game, I think this would work very well on mobile! The spreading rules seem too difficult though, if they were simpler I would try to do things strategically. Now I just try something and observe how it reacts, which still works decently. |
| Aug 14 14:54:18 | 9m 08s | Pillar | ♥ 0 | Oh wow, I did not expect this quality of game play when starting this. Only a few mechanics but they are very well balanced and are very interesting. And it fits the theme super well! Only complaint I have is that the sounds were a bit annoying (but this is my opinion ofc), so I am happy you added a mute button. Also, the webpage has a scrollbar that gets activated by pressing space for me on chrome: https://puu.sh/Be7eR/c54efd9f76.png. simply adding html,body{overflow:hidden} to the css would probably solve the issue. |
| Aug 14 15:13:36 | 19m 18s | Running out of Space | ♥ 0 | Very nice game, I too thought of going with this interpretation of the theme at one point. The block movement mechanic works very nicely and makes the game interesting (It is unfortunate that the game play mechanic has nothing to do with the theme though, which is the main reason I didn't go for this interpretation). Anyhow I think this made for a pretty nice game none the less :) I am kind of interested in what tools you used though, as I am surprised to see that you have collision detection between the moving blocks. Is it something you made yourself, or just a standard library? |
| Aug 14 15:34:03 | 20m 27s | Quibble Quarrel | ♥ 2 | Very nice game, controls felt very good too! Just the choice for the button that is used for the attack is a little questionable in my opinion. |
| Aug 15 15:51:40 | 24h 17m | Pre Alpha Build | ♥ 3 | Pretty good game, seems to me like you ran out of time though? There are some details that I would have changed, but I assume you just didn't get to them; The end screen is rather boring, The characters don't face the movement direction, the rocket launchers don't have explosions. The art style is very nice too :) |
| Aug 15 15:59:37 | 7m 57s | Magic Cam | ♥ 1 | Very neat concept, fits the theme very well. It was a little too difficulty for me personally though, I kept dying. |
| Aug 15 18:25:19 | 2h 25m | Nether Flood | ♥ 1 | Very sweet game! It fits the theme well, and the visuals are very nice despite being simple! The controls felt really good already in my opinion, but maybe could be improved a bit more, like variable turning speed depending on movement speed, or something along those lines, not sure. Very nice entry overall :) |
| Aug 15 18:41:17 | 15m 58s | Tile League | ♥ 1 | Very nice idea! Execution isn't bad, but could have been a little neater imo, it feels quite static as it is. Adding some slight velocity to the controls is always nice I think, and proper rotation instead of 90 degree increments would look nice as well. But the idea is the most important part! And of course you might simply disagree with my opinion, it is an opinion after all :) |
| Aug 15 19:03:03 | 21m 46s | LaserJuice (Top Down Shooter) | ♥ 0 | I wasn't able to play the game, so I just judged some aspects from what I saw from your post. But this game is very similar to mine :D it is quite a simple formula though of course, shooting a spreading virus. But your version looks very cool, it's a shame I wasn't able to try it :( |
| Aug 15 19:08:49 | 5m 46s | Cutting Edge: Screensaver | ♥ 5 | Very nice game, I too had been thinking about making some game where the window itself becomes smaller. |
| Aug 15 19:21:13 | 12m 24s | Tetris with Physics | ♥ 0 | Ha! very cool adaptation of a classic game, many classic games like tetris also jumped into my mind when I read the theme |
| Aug 16 13:40:09 | 18h 18m | The Return | ♥ 0 | Very interesting game! The graphics could have used some work in my opinion though. the art style itself is fine, kind of cool, but I would have made the game less static. For instance by adding sliding transitions when you move, and animations for tacking and delivering damage. But pretty cool game none the less :) |
| Aug 16 13:47:05 | 6m 56s | Space Invasion | ♥ 1 | Damn, that's a cool game. Super polished too! It is quite simple, but very nice. The only slight complaint I have is that the controls don't feel super nice in my opinion. But that is very subjective of course. |
| Aug 16 19:52:40 | 6h 05m | Claustrophobia | ♥ 1 | The incorporation of the theme was not great in my opinion. I mean, you achieved this by making it a small screen, but that is kind of a shallow artistic thing, I prefer the theme to be incorporated in game play. And you game play is more like 'running out of moves' kind of. With that out of the way, this game is actually awesome! Super fun to play with really neat art style. It is very unfortunate that you couldn't make more levels, I would definitely be interested in playing an extended version. |
| Aug 16 21:44:50 | 1h 52m | Nooooo! | ♥ 1 | Oh, nice idea, needing to balance the collecting stuff and protecting the land. |
| Aug 16 21:50:53 | 6m 03s | Who Z For Dinner | ♥ 3 | I really liked the graphics of this game, with the wonky 'animations'. I assume those are more of a time choice than a design choice, but it is pretty cool none the less. |
| Aug 17 12:01:11 | 14h 10m | Blast Off! | ♥ 1 | I thought the controls with the mouse were a tiny bit annoying, but other than that it's a pretty cool game :D |
| Aug 17 23:00:12 | 10h 59m | Defrag | ♥ 1 | Very cool game, love the classic trail that you put in there :) |
| Aug 18 16:22:05 | 17h 21m | Flat Builder | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea, not sure if you pulled it off too well though honestly. It felt a bit clunky to me. But I kind of assume you didn't have enough time to make it perfect, it was an ambitious idea I think for something to make in 3 days. |
| Aug 18 16:33:06 | 11m 01s | Personal Space | ♥ 1 | Very nice game, fits the theme very well but does have original game play. |
| Aug 25 19:41:39 | 171h 08m | Pusher | ♥ 0 | This looks kind of interesting, but feels a bit unfinished. But that seems to align with your description so that's alright. I think you did a decent job non the less, could just use some finishing touches :) |
| Aug 25 19:58:17 | 16m 38s | Leaving Room | ♥ 1 | Oh wow, this game is great! Super fun to play and quite unique. Seemed like just a copy of that unblock me game at first, but turned out to be rather different. It also fits the theme super well and has very nice graphics, good job! |
| Aug 31 18:39:16 | 142h 40m | ChromeStuck | ♥ 1 | Mhhm, it looked cool, but only the 'a' button worked on my computer with my xbox 360 controller, so I didn't manage to play really. |
| Sep 1 00:17:00 | 5h 37m | Scrap Field | ♥ 0 | I too would have liked a tutorial. Game play seemed a little slow (as far as I understood it), so it isn't really my type of game. But everything seems very polished and I really liked the graphics :) |
| Sep 1 16:11:32 | 15h 54m | 42 Toy | ♥ 0 | Pretty good game, looks very polished, as had been noted by others. The game play is quite simple, but it is that addicting type of simple. It did feel a little too easy though, you might want to tweak the difficult a little. The game fits the theme rather well also, so good job overall :) |
