Dec 29 02:50:00 Stand On Dignity ♥ 1 Very funny, and I liked the audio. I would definitely play a longer version of this game. If I had to nitpick, I would say tighten up the controls a little bit and maybe tweak the hit boxes on the arrows a little bit, but overall, this is pretty fun.
Dec 29 03:02:17 12m 17s SLAP HAPPY ♥ 1 This is great, and it's stupid. It's the exact kind of stupid that I like. 😁 The voice acting really makes it, too. The only thing is I couldn't really find a practical use for the ice. I figured out that you can heal the faces of the NPCs with it, but there were so many NPCs that I never had to do it before reaching 100% happiness. I could see there existing a version of this game where it is a little more of a puzzle and you have to manage the ice, but as it stands, it just seems to be there for flavor.
Dec 29 03:30:57 28m 40s Upsystem ♥ 0 I played twice on Normal mode, and it was very difficult, but I think that serves this game well -- The game play loop encourages you to come back and try a new strategy. It nails the masochism trigger that these procedural perma-death games need. It also fits the theme really well considering that from what I can tell, you have an incentive to offload as many crew members as you can to doomed ships so that you can save supplies for later. 😝
Dec 29 03:40:58 10m 01s Odie Brought Mom Flowers ♥ 1 Fun little platformer. I liked the little bit of physics on the boxes. I got stuck on the second level for a little while because I didn't realize you could stand on the clouds, so maybe you could try to find a way to make it more obvious that they are platforms.
Dec 29 03:56:39 15m 41s Gatopia ♥ 1 Pretty fun. It really makes you think about how far you're willing to run away from the stairwell to grab one more cat. I kept getting stuck on the walls, though.
Dec 29 04:23:36 26m 57s COOLTits ♥ 2 This was one of the more fun games I've played so far. With some more variety in the events, this could be a good time-killer game. My only complaint is that it can be hard to tell which icon corresponds to each action. As nice as the UI looks, it might be better if you could just choose between text options, or at least have the symbol you need to click in the text block describing your options.
Dec 29 05:29:30 1h 05m Alien Escape ♥ 1 I really liked the mechanic, but with how slowly the movement was, the game quickly became tedious, especially when you need to move 15 aliens over the same platforming segment. There is a lot of potential here for something that could be fleshed out outside of a game jam, but the pacing needs to be a lot faster. The music was rockin' 🎸
Dec 29 21:41:30 16h 12m Price of Power ♥ 1 It took a second to figure out, but once I got it, it was pretty fun, if not a little easy. I think this could actually be a really good game if you could print it out and play in person pvp. Since the cards seem to represent characters, it would be nice if they had character art on them, but I can understand why that wasn't in the scope of a jam game.
Dec 29 23:12:54 1h 31m CaveSlime ♥ 1 Echoing what RAC-Games said, it would be better if there were more checkpoints, and the spikes were especially frustrating considering the first time they showed up was a very long way past a checkpoint, and it wasn't clear that they would kill you. It is a neat concept, though.
Dec 29 23:35:19 22m 25s Eztli ♥ 0 While the game play was kind of simple, the graphics were pretty impressive for a jam game. A little bit of sound could have helped a lot too.
Dec 29 23:38:26 3m 07s Escape from Arex ♥ 1 The color scheme in this game is really nice, and really nails the dreary post-apocalyptic look. The story bits are nicely done, too.
Dec 30 00:02:05 23m 39s Overslept ♥ 1 This is extremely polished. The graphics are really impressive, and the music is really nice. My only suggestion is maybe try to tweak the randomizer a little bit. There were times where I would get three or four of the same shape requested at once, and the ovens just couldn't keep up. 😝
Dec 30 18:47:49 18h 45m The Gods Are Angry ♥ 1 This felt like a very complete polished game. I really liked how smoothly the new game elements and colors were added in to the levels. It really made it feel like you were slowly getting to the top of the volcano. The lightning effect was particularly good. The sound really had some punch to it, and there were times where it almost surprised me enough to mess up my platforming.
Dec 30 19:41:18 53m 29s Zealot ♥ 1 The controls felt really good on this one. The sound effects also really helped to make the movement feel solid. I just wish there were a few more sound effects for when the character dies or for when you hit an enemy. The running and jumping feels so nice and meaty that when you hit an enemy and it dies silently, it feels off. Overall, a great game. I would play a longer version of this.
Dec 30 20:02:22 21m 04s Bow-wow Before God ♥ 1 I definitely think a tutorial would help this game out a lot, but I can understand that you wouldn't have time to get that into the jam game. I was also pretty confused at the beginning of the game, but I stuck around for the great graphics and dog puns. 😝 The game has a very hectic feel, but in a good way. I hope you get a chance to touch this one up after the jam, because I think there's a really fun game here that just needs a bit of tweaking.
