Dec 4 22:00:14 Goats and Gods ♥ 1 I like the feel and look of the game, and the sounds remind me of Warcraft II. The enemies have a nice janky way of moving. Standing in a doorway and just swinging at the enemies proved to be a bit too good of a strategy, and I didn't really feel the need or use to use the shield much. Some more feedback when you get hurt would probably be good. Playing a pacifist run and not killing any enemies was fun too, though I only managed to snag one goat that way.
Dec 4 22:13:13 12m 59s GOATWRATH ♥ 1 Good movement and nice simple enemies and bullet patterns! The Eat button looks almost greyed out, and unless you remember what you had before it's pretty hard to tell what the bonus is for it. Maybe I've played too many shmups but the low firing rate and lack of impact makes the beginning a bit slow, and it takes a bit too long to build it up. Also the graphics were nice but I didn't get a feel for the characters hitbox, and generally prefer a smaller hitbox for some fun weaving in and out of bullets, but it might just be the shmup fan talking. Very good (if derivative) graphics and mood, some background music would work wonders!
Dec 4 22:26:01 12m 48s Penelope ♥ 1 Very nice use of the theme! I really like the general feeling - voices are great and the little zoom ins when you get to a star is great. The 8 second music isn't even overbearing but kinda funny in the context. On the one hand I really like that there's a bit more at stake compared to most indie platformers these days where you can only lose ~10 seconds of work if you die, there's more tension this way of trying to make it to the end. That said you do feel a bit defeated after dying and the gameplay would likely have to have some more juice to have you want to try many times and replay the initial part.
Dec 4 22:28:29 2m 28s Farewell Dear Cargo ♥ 1 Any chance of a Web version? Looks very nice!
Dec 4 22:54:03 25m 34s Hire Power ♥ 1 Really good graphics! Especially the beginning. Great music and voices as well, and I like the corporate volcano god. Game idea is interesting and it's fun, though perhaps a bit too slow.
Dec 4 23:00:24 6m 21s Rift Plugger ♥ 4 Gameplay feels great and really polished! The feedback when attacking is very good and satisfying and just general movement is fun. Graphics and music are really good too - very good and complete experience.
Dec 8 17:23:58 90h 23m Grandma to hell ♥ 0 Good mechanics and great humor The controls are very slidy which may or may not have been intentional. I also didn't know if it was time-based or if you got hurt when on flames - either way some feedback and a status bar to show how much health or timeyou had left would be great.
Dec 8 17:41:28 17m 30s Total Party Kill ♥ 0 Great entry! Obviously very good graphics and audio and it feels very polished and complete, but the underlying mechanics are very clever and fun too.
Dec 8 17:51:09 9m 41s Santa on Skis ♥ 1 Nice cute graphics and Christmas-y music! It did feel a bit random how well you did since a lot of it was dependant on the level, and the movement could possibly be tweaked to be a bit more exciting, but otherwise solid and complete entry.
Dec 8 17:58:33 7m 24s FTD : Fixin' to Die ♥ 2 Great mood, very gruesome but still fun graphics! Amazing audio and music as well. It was a bit hard and probably an easier first day would have nice to ease you into it.
Dec 8 18:07:59 9m 26s Space Battle Zero ♥ 1 Very nicely polished game! The mechanics are fun and it there is a nice build-up to every encounter. Overall experience is very good but I do still feel that opting out of both Graphics and Audio makes it a bit hard to judge the game overall
Dec 8 18:16:04 8m 05s Slash Rush ♥ 2 Great music that really fits the game. Good mechanics and satysfying gameplay, however restarting from the beginning gets old pretty fast. It's hard to get around it and keeping the choosing the number of shurikens though!
Dec 8 18:34:25 18m 21s Spelleton: Skellord's Domain ♥ 0 Very polished and complete game! Graphics and audio are great and it feels good to play. The moving and shooting could be a bit less clunky - you feel like some encounters should be very easy but they are actually pretty hard due to having to click to move a little bit, shoot of one fireball, then haae the character stop and get attacked etc
Dec 9 15:29:41 20h 55m Sacrilicious ♥ 3 Yeeah, flawless audio and presentation really! The pixel art meshed very well with the low poly graphics too, and great lighting work for it. I like how the music starts out kinda nice and chill and then quickly becomes very metal. The gameplay is definitely fun, it probably wouldn't stretch beyond a 5-10 minute game but it doesn't need to.
