Dec 4 12:05:46		Eskate Death	♥ 1	I feel like the skill cap could be improved by allowing the player to vary the time of the jumps. As it stands now, it's often quite unavoidable to hit an ascending ramp and lose most of your speed. Also, sometimes the game throw a lot of ascending ramps in a row, and if you mess up on one, it can be impossible to get the speed to get going again. However, I feel it fit the theme very well. I wanted to stack all the penguins, and making a sacrifice felt quite difficult.
Dec 4 12:27:37	21m 51s	Lava Luva	♥ 0	Rather easy, but I liked the style and the overall idea. Just wish there was more to it. Right now it's just "do anything and win".
Dec 4 12:44:21	16m 44s	Fallen Girl	♥ 1	Although the game was short, the level design was nice. I enjoyed getting the extra hearts at places. Audio was a very quiet, but otherwise pretty good. Graphics were the strongest part. I'm quite a fan of such an art style. The jumping was a bit floaty (but I understand that that's kind of how it is with an adjustable jump height). And although the sacrifice mechanic and the element of choice were nice, it was basically always a better choice to give up a heart.
Dec 4 12:53:35	9m 14s	Keyboard Twister	♥ 1	Really made me laugh. Simple idea, but a great result. What is actually a very big problem though is, yes, that most keyboards do not support so many simultaneous keypresses in a close region. Often even as few as 3 is too many. This really breaks the game, sadly.
Dec 4 13:06:25	12m 50s	A Walk In The Neighborhood	♥ 1	The art and narrative are nice, cozy, and heartwarming but it's not much of a game with nothing to do. Would have liked to see some choices, like what would have happened, had I not given my stuff away.
Dec 4 13:33:28	27m 03s	Omelettes	♥ 1	Easily the best game I've played this LD. Amazingly much content that ramps up difficulty nicely, incorporates the tutorial into the gameplay, and provides genuinely interesting puzzles. I'm always pleasantly surprised when I find something of this level of quality in an LD. Only improvements I could point out are that: Even just a simple music loop in the background would have been nice. It was a bit difficult to differentiate between the different height levels at times, but it was surprisingly intuitive, and didn't bother me nonetheless.
Dec 4 14:03:20	29m 52s	Ludum Dare: The Game	♥ 1	The pop-ups were thematic, but didn't tie too much into the gameplay. Overall, it was very simplistic - just click buttons and eat, sleep, and game to make sure you don't fail. Not much thought needed from the player. The pixel art was nice though.
Dec 9 18:57:19	124h 53m	FTD : Fixin' to Die	♥ 2	Oh, absolutely wonderful. The animations, the sounds, even the voice acting. Gameplay was also nice and snappy, and all the effects were good, and I've honestly very little bad to say about this game.
Dec 9 23:56:38	4h 59m	The Mist	♥ 1	I really like it, but there's the problem that sometimes you just don't get the things you need, leading you to an inevitable demise. Otherwise, it's real neat, nothing bad to say.
Dec 10 01:55:49	1h 59m	Eternal Home Floristry	♥ 0	I am at a loss for words for the quality of this game. I'd give a 6 for mood and 5.5 for graphics and audio, but I can not. My only, and by that I mean the only, gripe was the spelling mistakes. Gosh, most proper paid games these days aren't even as good, and that's accounting for the length of the thing.
