| Dec 3 10:19:00 | Passage Home | ♥ 1 | **GENERAL:** I really love the simplicity of the game while staying true to the theme. I did few tries but Captain got missing at 17m before the landing. **GRAPHICS:** Although I love clear shapes I found clouds a bit too rough? **AUDIO:** Simple but effective for simple game like that, music and sounds fit well! **OVERALL:** Really nice little game which would be suitable for devices! | |
| Dec 3 10:30:20 | 11m 20s | Lost In The Flames | ♥ 1 | Found all sentiments but missed 2 items. I guess I did what the lady asked for didn't I? :) It's fun exploration game although I wish the movement was a bit faster. |
| Dec 3 10:59:43 | 29m 23s | Squad Wipe | ♥ 1 | Good concept and idea but execution lacks a bit of polishing. Don't get me wrong, like it was explained already, difficulty curve ramps properly, mechanics are explained on spot and there is also a nice variety of "puzzles". I enjoyed controlling the big orange guy 😃 I was missing some timer on explosive units, some obstacles which I could use in my advantage to re-organize the troops and similar. Further more, shooting off-screen felt like easy victory. Congratz for reaching the finish line! |
| Dec 3 11:11:19 | 11m 36s | Not Safe for Teamwork | ♥ 0 | Nice puzzle game, it reminds of Chip's challenge and the likes just with more characters. Puzzles are well designed and visual + audio style goes well together with the gameplay. Sometimes I wish I had an overview over the map so it's not trial and error. Overall, I liked it :) |
| Dec 3 11:16:11 | 4m 52s | Exploding Sport | ♥ 1 | I really like the unique take on the classic game and next to that it's so much fun! I only wish there would be an AI player to play with ;) |
| Dec 3 11:24:25 | 8m 14s | Lost In Space | ♥ 1 | There is an interesting concept but it took me a while to figure out the rules (and I'm still not 100% sure I understand everything). To me it feels like management game and I'm sure with an introductory tutorial (with 1-2 cubes) there would be easier to get in. Sounds and ambient works well with the style as well! |
| Dec 3 11:46:36 | 22m 11s | Seppo VS Goblins | ♥ 1 | First of all congratz on your first game! The game in general is nice, obviously you put some effort in art and effects which works well - audio too. I just wish you had used theme a bit more - what you have in a form of soul sacrifice mechanics is great but in your case you could just do kill enemies to open doors. Maybe more usage of souls so you have to balance properly to get past the enemies and yet keep just enough souls to trigger doors and such? Don't take this the harsh way, I know 48 hours isn't enough to do everything properly, it's just a food for thoughts! In any case, well done! The boss caused me some problems for sure ;) |
| Dec 3 12:19:41 | 33m 05s | Runaway Bus | ♥ 1 | That's a really nice game with a pleasant art style and fun simple physics. The only downside I see is that hitting pedestrians takes damage. You could easily ignore this and rather relay on obstacles on the road which would destroy you. Throwing tiny pedestrians around would be cool factor, instead it tries to break that fun. In any case, good game - you should work on it after the compo and make it into a full game :) |
| Dec 3 13:57:40 | 1h 37m | The Chickening | ♥ 0 | 102 sacrfice level, where is he??? Really cool game, I love the idea and the vibe is great! Black chicken can become a real threat after a while, if not for attacking you to block the campfire. I wish it could be played with a mouse and better attack feel and to be played slightly faster but apart from that, wonderful piece, well done! PS: Make this a full game with co-op support ok? ;) |
| Dec 3 14:09:14 | 11m 34s | The Time Gnelf and the Quest for the Missing Golden Cogs | ♥ 1 | I really, really love the story behind the game and how you need to collects the cogs in order to power up the start system machine :) I didn't know the use of slow-down though. I collected all the cogs without using it once (apart from trying out what it does). Also, there is a bug with an elf which deforms if you are not moving. Platforms are really simple and some cloud moving platforms and other obstacles would add a lot. With lots of improvements I think this could become a really fairy platformer with the given story. Well done on completing the compo! |
| Dec 3 14:35:57 | 26m 43s | Tezcacoatl's Dance Dance Paradise | ♥ 2 | Ok, everyone said it already, very fun with good graphics and feel! I just miss faster sacrifices in shorter time for even better feel but that's minor. Good job! |
| Dec 3 14:39:18 | 3m 21s | Omelettes | ♥ 1 | Really fun puzzle game! It's like sokoban but with eggs and frying pan, well done! :) |
| Dec 3 14:44:19 | 5m 01s | For The Will Of Gods | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept for a sim game! It contains some bugs though like villages getting stuck on the houses. |
| Dec 3 15:07:01 | 22m 42s | Limbs are Limited! | ♥ 1 | Haha, really unique kind of puzzle game and very fun! It was first to understand mechanics at the start but once you get the hang of it you can get really experimental. Big plus for slow-motion! |
| Dec 3 15:18:48 | 11m 47s | Fistful of Sacrifices | ♥ 0 | Really interesting concept where you need to use sacrifices wisely. I just wasn't sure what is the meaning of sacrificing your own health multiple times while you can only pick one upgrade. Anyway, fun game! |
| Dec 3 15:26:15 | 7m 27s | Curse of the eastern god | ♥ 2 | Woah, really nice idea of not going back and a nice metaphor for life (was it meant to be like that?) :) Music fits well with the consistent art style. Overall, I enjoyed the game! |
| Dec 3 15:30:58 | 4m 43s | Eskate Death | ♥ 1 | Haha, that expression is priceless! 😄 But yeah, loved execution of the runner genre with the given theme. Some additional animation like throwing the penguin would add to fun and make life easier on upper slopes. Are you making this in a full game? Please do :) |
| Dec 3 15:42:27 | 11m 29s | A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in | ♥ 1 | That's one hard sim game! Sometimes I had to kill the skeleton with a mold and the mold was sacrificed! 😄 But really, I like the idea of crafting, selling or fighting. Game could get some polishing on controls about grabbing & moving stuff. Well done! |
| Dec 3 15:50:40 | 8m 13s | Save the swarm | ♥ 2 | Simple and fun game although I wasn't sure how collision works properly. I could slip through tight holes just fine losing none or 1. I could then shoot 1 alien to get rid of space trash which yielded the same result. It would be nice to add more openings and make tougher collision for aliens that won't just pass through them so you really need to focus which thrash to shoot at. Anyway, good job! |
| Dec 3 15:59:32 | 8m 52s | Rablat | ♥ 1 | What a sweet little gem! Although I wasn't quite sure what am I doing exactly. I was just feeding random stuff and somehow I got enough bottles to become young. When getting really young I left the lab and fell into darkness, turning into a rat. Weird adventure of a mad scientist, loved it - 4/5! PS: Was scientist drinking blood of the dead rats? 😏 |
| Dec 3 16:23:13 | 23m 41s | God n' food | ♥ 2 | It took me a while to understand the rules & controls but once I got a hang of it I became a master trader, pleasing gods while doing an understandable business! The only downside I see is progression which doesn't does it change over time? I pleased gods greatly but difficulty didn't seem to rise. That and controls which could be simplified with interface intractable with mouse (suggestion mockup included below). sug.png In any case, good idea, perfect for devices! |
| Dec 3 20:11:59 | 3h 48m | Volcano Fling | ♥ 1 | Hilarious!! Apart from funny physics and sounds I really loved doing headshots with volcano stones. What is missing are combos - combo for blocking the stone with a stickmen and throw both of them to the volcano. Good job! ;) |
| Dec 3 20:29:32 | 17m 33s | Rituals | ♥ 0 | I like the idea of sacrifice and the game feel is great, especially when you drag bodies that leave all the blood behind. However, but the levels just got too repetitive - it would be nice to have another use of the portals like smaller ones that replenish health, give a new weapon, key etc. Good job on the game!! |
| Dec 3 20:35:09 | 5m 37s | Dead Pixels | ♥ 0 | Pretty good concept to drain your vision for using powers! With that being said, pixels may be just a bit too noisy, may making the screen darker would be more pleasant for the eyes? |
| Dec 3 20:47:34 | 12m 25s | Stones | ♥ 1 | There we go, I've made it! Done.png I really liked this puzzle game, one of the I played from the compo so far I must say! There was only 1 confusion for me which started on level 3. After sacrificing blue stone I get teleport at the start of level 3. I didn't know you can teleport back while carrying other stones. Apart from that, perfect! Visuals and audio are going well with the gamplay 👍 |
| Dec 3 20:57:34 | 10m 00s | Dungeon Runer | ♥ 1 | First of all, it has a good feel of ASCII rogue-likes and I like the minimalist and clear design! Too bad it was hard to understand what is the goal and what I was doing, I'm still not quite sure but I've learned how to sacrifice by sacrificing myself many times and then enemies accidentally. But, I reached the boss if that was boss! :) |
| Dec 3 21:24:21 | 26m 47s | Total Party Kill | ♥ 0 | The best game on the compo for sure (up until now but I have high hope for it 😉 ). Really, music fits perfectly with an amazing pixel art style and of course, unique puzzle gamplay! Hands down! 👑 |
| Dec 4 12:01:46 | 14h 37m | Blood For Blood Gods | ♥ 0 | Simple game, I kept sacrificing them but it seems it was never enough :) |
| Dec 4 12:10:15 | 8m 29s | SPLIT_SHOT | ♥ 0 | Cleared 21 waves then I quit since it didn't look like the difficulty will get any higher. I hope I didn't quit just before the boss. Solid game but I'm missing more difficulty and hold-to-fire system. - Sounds were nice but I was missing firing sounds - Like @slashee-the-cow said, ZIP is better than installer for the sake of the whole trying-the-game process. |
| Dec 4 12:16:51 | 6m 36s | The Life of a Corporate Drone | ♥ 0 | Pretty nice little sim-balance game! I tried to juggle-everything and first I dropped shopping then suddenly it was family & work. I thought I could manage that but I left with just Chores & Food - would that make me a vampire?? chores.png Good concept and big bonus for character selection 👍 |
| Dec 4 12:25:03 | 8m 12s | Volcano Royale XTREME | ♥ 0 | Haha, I had quite some fun with it! I think the fall screams go so well with the music, it makes it so hilarious and satisfying :D |
| Dec 4 12:32:08 | 7m 05s | Knight Soul Redemption | ♥ 0 | I really love the style of the characters and animations which also work great with the sounds. The feeling is just great! The ambient feels great but sometimes it is too dark/unreadable. In any case, I would love to see a game with that style. Also, is there a reason for me to sacrifice anything at the altar since I can eat food to regain health? Bottom line - wonderful entry, congratz!! |
| Dec 4 13:12:19 | 40m 11s | Travelers | ♥ 1 | Kudos for the visual style and mood of the game, they are really great! Controls were a bit awkward at some point and I wish I had tighter control over the character but other than that, nice stealthy game. |
| Dec 4 13:29:06 | 16m 47s | JOURNEY | ♥ 2 | I sacrificed 11 minutes and 2 seconds! journey.png I really loved the game, was it maybe inspired by Celeste? :) The puzzles are just great and the difficulty curve is almost perfect if we don't last level in the account, that one really pulled my nerve. The only real complaint I have is that you were using some really big pixel art sprites while the rest of the game was clean (checkpoint flag & cannons). You have such a wonderful style in the main menu and I was wondering why not doing the rest of the game in the same minimalist style? Just a though for the future maybe? Anyway, wonderful game, well done! |
| Dec 4 13:39:32 | 10m 26s | ANKH | ♥ 0 | Oh, what a present mechanics with the ankh respawns, it really allows a huge variety of puzzles! Graphics are nice and work well with the sound effects. They only issue I had was collision in general (enemies, some walls etc.). Jumps also failed sometimes when I wanted to jump... But apart from that, nice entry, well done! |
| Dec 4 19:54:13 | 6h 14m | Steven's Journey | ♥ 1 | Art and the ambient are amazing, well done! But like others pointed out, controls doesn't work well. Why not following a mouse cursor while holding down left button? Well deserved, so far this is one of the games with the best visuals and mood! |
| Dec 5 00:05:36 | 4h 11m | Land's Sacrifice | ♥ 1 | I really like the idea and the concept but somehow I had a hard time getting on a positive side. I was always in debt, even turns were negative :O |
| Dec 5 00:19:46 | 14m 10s | Coyote's Satiation | ♥ 1 | test.jpg I did! So, I pretty much enjoyed the game and progression. However, I have the same critics as @bendev-games . Better gathering controls and some idea what do you need for tool upgrade. Bottom line - good game! :) |
| Dec 5 00:38:19 | 18m 33s | The greatest sacrifice | ♥ 1 | Pretty neat & innovative management game! It would need some additional introductory since there's a lot of trial & error to get the village running. But other than that, really nice visual for the kind of game and the music works really well too! Well done 😉 |
| Dec 5 00:42:35 | 4m 16s | Running Wild | ♥ 1 | Really impressive! I love the mechanics and the humor that goes with them. The visuals are also really neat but the camera angle & tall walls were a bit annoying. You could make the walls lower maybe? Also, big plus for the tight controls 👍 |
| Dec 5 11:15:45 | 10h 33m | The Exchange | ♥ 1 | One of the best and unique games I've played at the compo for sure! I really loved the narrative and the card system which accompanies the story well. Even if you say you didn't have enough time I had a satisfying ending, just enough to get a taste of game that this might be. Well done! Constructive criticism: - Colored text so you easily know who speaks what (not that I was confused, just polishing detail) - Some gentle ambient music (maybe crowd murmuring when you perform before villages?) You've nailed it 😉 |
| Dec 5 11:24:11 | 8m 26s | Craftsman | ♥ 1 | I've tried to do few sacrifices but none were worth it! sacrifice.jpg Like others pointed out, the mood is great and I love how creative you can get with it! Also, big plus for the polishing level on doll creation and music that fits perfectly. Awesome entry! |
| Dec 5 11:56:44 | 32m 33s | Duplicube | ♥ 1 | I made it! blocky.png I saw the game on MorgStream twitch channel and gave it a try right away. Visual style is consistent and gameplay is amazing for such a short dev time. I wished for more levels at the end though. Well done, of the best rated games by me for sure! ❤️ |
| Dec 5 12:57:52 | 1h 01m | Sacrificial Lamb | ♥ 1 | ul1.png There we go, monsters were on a trail but followed it in a wrong direction which turned out well for me (not so well for the lamb though). Good concept, especially when you can lead monsters around by leaving trails away from the altar. I know you didn't check in for sound rating but monster sounds were terrible, I almost got deaf! In cases like that it's more wise to turn them off completely. |
| Dec 5 16:04:07 | 3h 06m | The Happy Prince | ♥ 1 | Good idea, I love how the bird is controlled but the game is really hard, I found it quite impossible to enter the girl's house. If passages would be slightly bigger or maybe a road to the house a slightly longer with obstacles on its way you could just drop the gem through the chimney or something :) Next to that, wonderful art! |
| Dec 6 14:22:43 | 22h 18m | Life in the Trenches | ♥ 1 | In the whole game I only got the option selection once and then I put John to rest (not sure which one is john). It was a bit confusing just because of that, otherwise great art style and music - like @simon-parzer said, nice DOS game feel! trench.png |
| Dec 6 14:47:57 | 25m 14s | OhBall | ♥ 1 | Like other's mentioned, it reminds of me of Agar.io, I guess it was an inspiration? The gameplay is really addictive and I was hoping for some goal but it seems it's only "get the highest score?". In any case, I really enjoy the game! **Score:220** 😉 ohball.jpg |
| Dec 6 22:07:05 | 7h 19m | Explosive Sacrifice | ♥ 1 | I gave up on level 4 with 3 cannonballs. I got an idea how to get across, I was so close but nerves got to me. The game is so much fun, I really enjoyed it! The art, although simple is quite lovely and worked well :) Well done and thanks for dying fun! |
| Dec 7 11:56:54 | 13h 49m | Dark Villagers | ♥ 3 | I haven't played many Jam games so far but this is for sure one of the best I've seen! Gameplay, visuals & audio makes the mood that 100% matches the theme! I really love the management part of the game because it's never boring, something is always happening. The last wave for me! I guess I should invest more time into it 🤔 last-wave.png 5/5👑 - WELL DONE! 👍 |
| Dec 12 12:14:17 | 120h 17m | Blood Sacrifice | ♥ 0 | I'm trying out the game more than a week after the compo and there are no players to play with. Although I really appreciate the effort for MP game I think it is not the best option for the competitions since you will hardly gather players that will be around to test it. |
| Dec 12 12:17:30 | 3m 13s | Flaming Resistance | ♥ 1 | I liked the idea but I had problems with movement. Faster movement would make everything more fun and fast paced. In any case, well done! |
| Dec 12 12:28:44 | 11m 14s | Gifts for Satan | ♥ 1 | All was well until the devil himself came to the village. well.jpg I had some problems with kids getting stuck between the buildings which caused demons getting to me too early. But apart from that the game is a lot of fun with such a simple mechanics. It was great watching the village grow, adults turning into solders who charged into demons with battlecries. Watching kids go was hard, pleading to stay alive, calling their parents! But really, the mood and gameplay is on spot, well done! |
| Dec 14 12:45:01 | 48h 16m | Together We Clear | ♥ 1 | Like others pointed out...SNAKE! I really like how you mixed snake gameplay style with dungeons and maze puzzles! Nice execution! |
| Dec 14 12:48:15 | 3m 14s | Chiiip | ♥ 2 | Haha, this game gave me some proper laugh 😄 For sure the top game in Humour for me 👍 Gameplay feels smooth and art works perfectly with sound & music, well done! |
