Dec 6 04:49:40 Reap what you sow ♥ 1 Hey ! I really liked the mood you set through the game, with the small events that kept me playing even though I understood the main game loop. The music was great for this kind of game and the graphics simply worked. I'd say one problem would be the player movement, it feels floaty, where the game needs tight controls to accurately use the tools. Other than that, this is awesome. Congrats !
Dec 6 05:07:38 17m 58s Soul Keeper ♥ 3 Pretty clever concept, but failing a level is way too easy (but maybe I'm bad). Took me a while to understand how to play too, perhaps putting jump on space was a bit strange. Other than that, the levels were well made and I really saw what you were trying to achieve ! Thank you for your game !
Dec 6 05:10:17 2m 39s Collatero ♥ 2 Great concept, perfect execution ! You're spot on the theme, and the worldbuilding around your simple mechanic really makes the game shine. Awesome work :) The music was great too.
Dec 6 05:17:43 7m 26s SoulAssain ♥ 1 Very good concept, would love to see it developed more and polished a bit. The controls felt a bit weird, mainly because of the control scheme. Space to jump is strange in a platformer, you could bind it to the up arrow for example. Also why not bind the sacrifice button to the right mouse button ? This way it's more accessible and allows for a lower barrier of entry. The animations and particle effects were well done and complimented the gameplay very well. Great entry !
Dec 6 05:25:50 8m 07s Sorry sword ♥ 2 Okay this is reaaaaally good. I mean, I spent at least 5minutes making the perfect avatar ( https://i.imgur.com/ZJ2BhOV.png <- pic here) Then when I played (with myself) I absolutely adored the controller. The small bouncy feeling of the run combined with the height of the jumps... You got the gamefeel right. Props to you for making a fighter game in a game jam, too. Well done, very good entry !
Dec 6 05:33:15 7m 25s ImminENT Danger ♥ 1 God damn this is hardcore ! I really enjoyed myself, thanks for that. The main character's animations are nice, and the axe throw is actually pretty enjoyable ^^ The only problem is that the ents blend too much in their environment, sometimes one just pops out a tree and the animation to use the torch is slightly longer that the ent attack animation, getting you killed. Very good entry, thank you !
Dec 6 05:41:25 8m 10s Paper Space Program ♥ 0 Didn't read the info, got 2 billion in debt in the first few seconds... Whoops. Don't put me in charge of nasa. Of course like everyone else, I'm going to praise the art style, even if if sometimes was a little bit detrimental to readability. Didn't understand at first how to build the space station, and when I did I lost ! Well, I tried again and it was actually really fun. Thank you for this entry !
Dec 6 05:49:27 8m 02s Jesus Take the Wheel ♥ 1 Played with the mouse and it felt really hard to control, but you probably already knew that. The level design and telegraphing of obstacles felt fair at all times, props to you. Vehicle physics felt a bit janky, but it played in the intention of the game anyway. A really fun game that makes you go "goddamnit jesus !" Thanks for your entry !
Dec 6 06:11:08 21m 41s Car Destruction Racer XIV ♥ 3 God damn you even have a trailer ! Some people are right saying the mechanic is awkward but I think it was the intention. Graphics are really nice but I want to shine a spotlight on the sounds ! They are really good, so is the music. You really get these 80's vibes. Thank you for this entry and congrats on an awesome game !
Dec 6 06:45:05 33m 57s Rift Core ♥ 2 God damn what a beautiful game ! And I mean in its entirety ! The graphics are nice, the gameplay is good and rewarding. And there's a story ! I really cared for these characters, they seemed full of life and experience. Controlling multiple characters can be pretty tough, so maybe a pause button on the spacebar like in FTL could be a possible change, but that would create all kind of code and balance problems I guess. I you didn't do it I would think it's because of your starting intention, and it's really strong, so there's no problem there. Congrats on the amazing entry, one of the best I've seen so far !
Dec 6 07:07:11 22m 06s Catrifices ♥ 1 Hey man, this is really impressive considering your experience. I really found myself sacrificing one cat to save three others, so the intention seems to be met. The gamefeel was good, no bugs, great animations and reward (explosions, sounds). Keep it up, I can't wait for next year, where you'll do even better !
Dec 6 07:23:58 16m 47s King's Last Stand ♥ 1 Wave 6 and I'm getting cut off from my castle, dying without my loyal astras... Really good entry, the gamefeel was good, and the animations had weight. I disagree with those who say the attack animation is too slow. I think that was the intent, and forces some thinking from the player. Thank you for this game !
Dec 6 10:04:25 2h 40m The True Treasure Hunter ♥ 1 The game might seem unfinished to you, but in my eyes it's pretty polished nonetheless. The platforming feels right, which is not always the case in gamejam games. The throwing is nice too, I had no problem throwing things and landing on them. The level design was interesting, although you said it yourself, it lacks a bit of content. Very good entry ! Congrats on the game :)
Dec 6 10:31:05 26m 40s Lost In Space ♥ 1 Once I got the hang of it, it was really skillful to juggle with the different modules, well done ! The only downside is I didn't understand if green was less consumption or more consumption, it's still unclear to me. Overall this is a really solid entry, gameplay wise !
Dec 6 13:30:16 2h 59m Stranger ♥ 0 Awesome little experience. I hoped for more mechanics or puzzles but the end and the bit of narration through the environment made it worth it. Really good entry !
Dec 6 14:02:50 32m 34s Archibald's Snobbish Journey ♥ 1 15 items ! I thought I did pretty good but everyone here had a better score ! The game seemed fair, so well done ! Solid entry, thanks for your game !
Dec 6 14:22:05 19m 15s Master Key ♥ 0 I saw this concept numerous times, but no one came close to this level of execution. The camera and controls felt smooth and this twist is great by being self evident but still a reveal in itself. Great entry !
Dec 6 14:46:40 24m 35s Sacrificio Inc. ♥ 1 I already knew it was going to be great, but I was surprised at how well done the levels are, teaching you new tricks along the way. My favourite level was the 13th, with the little airlock you have to do to get the right pieces at the start. Of course the art is really great and very efficient. This is a professional game right there. One of the best entries so far.
Dec 6 15:45:27 58m 47s Samurai's Legacy ♥ 1 The concept is a classic, but the execution is lacking in some areas. Like jump detection for example. Now it's not very important, since it's a compo game and the graphics are nice ! You "themed" your mechanic well, as I haven't yet seen seppuku used to portray it. Great entry, and thanks for making this game !
Dec 6 16:00:05 14m 38s Mary had some lamb to spare ♥ 1 I'm really impressed ! The gameplay is actually really fun, and the loop of taking a sheep close to you, throwing it and getting it back works really well. The animations are great and the enemy variety is incredible ! Kudos to you. Great entry !
Dec 8 15:09:32 47h 09m Wicked Kinders ♥ 3 Very interesting art style, great job on that. Finding children based on clues was well done, and a bit creepy... On a last note, watch out for your game size next time. A big game is less likely to be downloaded. There are some tricks to reduce game size like compressing audio and textures that you can look for on the net. Overall very good ! Thank you for your game ;)
Dec 8 15:26:32 17m 00s Platformer.txt ♥ 1 Hey concept brother ;) Yeah I see where our concepts were similar. I didn't think it would work with a platformer but you managed to make it work ! Putting the files in the game folder is a great idea that I wish I had thought of. ^^ The puzzles were interesting and never too hard. Really good entry ! Congrats :)
Dec 15 14:32:47 167h 06m Just delete them ♥ 1 Really original concept, pretty similar to ours, but you did it more gameplay focused, so that's interesting. Good execution ! Thank you for your game.
Dec 30 17:06:38 362h 33m Escape from Arex ♥ 1 Man, the particles effects really stand out to me. The gunplay was really good, but the boxes didn't seem to provide much cover. The story was nice, although a bit confusing. Nice job, good entry !
Dec 31 17:11:46 24h 05m Sacrificial Run ♥ 1 Really good ! Gamefeel was top notch, graphics did their job really well. There was a big clarity in the visuals (contrast between gameplay elements) and that really helps the game. I had a lot of fun :) I hope you get all the votes to qualify !
Dec 31 17:34:12 22m 26s Tribu 43 ♥ 1 I'm really surprised there isn't more votes ! The gameplay was really smooth, although I felt I lost control during the fights. Sounds and animations were good and really pulled me in. Making a RTS during a compo must have been a challenge, so kudos to you ! Great entry :)
