Dec 4 01:06:08 H E R D ♥ 1 The level felt a bit drawn out. One sheep got stuck inside a bush. An option to Inverse Y for the camera would have been great. Overall a cool game though :D
Dec 4 01:33:07 26m 59s Dead Pixels ♥ 1 While a really cool idea, the game has some flaws. It is hard to actually attack the enemies with the pixel particles and the reduced horizontal speed while jumping feels a bit awkward. Also enemies that are already dissolving can still hurt the player. I never got past the 2nd type of enemy, but I'm sure the concept could be developed further^^
Dec 4 01:42:15 9m 08s Gift of Life ♥ 1 Nice concept, it would probably have profited from directional sounds^^ the only minor issue I had was that "up" was not actually up in the controls on KB :D I'd also include KB control scheme in the Description up there. Took a bit to figure out what button was used to resurrect^^
Dec 4 02:02:37 20m 22s Head Spin Builder - Sacrifice Edition! ♥ 1 Survived until day 30-something, then the game crashed upon sacrificing an idle headspinner XD (max pop 11, houses for 10). Too bad nothing regrows, but okay, that wouldn't have helped with the crash either. A very interesting concept^^
Dec 4 02:05:16 2m 39s Flufy Hat Co. ♥ 2 Is there a pacifist route? XD Those poor animals...
Dec 4 02:17:03 11m 47s Pizza Cats In Space: Encounters of the Fur Kind ♥ 1 For a first game, not too shabby :D The art might need some improvement (eg. avoiding zigzags in the outlines) and there were hardly any sounds/BGM (you probably should have opted out on the sound rating) Not sure, if there just is no second level or if the button at the end of level 1 broke^^" Good luck with further gamedev adventures^^
Dec 4 02:27:41 10m 38s Demon Rabbit Solitaire ♥ 2 Usually solitaire sounds like a boring game, but that tiny bunny makes it so much more enjoyable XD You need to plan ahead and make sure you have a pair on your hand, before solving the whole thing. The only caveat I have is that you can't "un-choose" a card you selected for putting on the "board"^^
Dec 4 03:05:13 37m 32s Hell Town ♥ 1 While the game seems to have been a bit out of scope for the short timeframe it reminded me a bit of those god Sims, like Black & White :D Could need some more explanation on what you were supposed to do (except randomly killing people). Also most NPCs tended to flock towards the north cliff in the progressed game. The rage of Beelzebub would not hit them, because of the trees (or roofs) protecting them.^^
Dec 4 14:43:56 11h 38m Ghostly Getaway ♥ 1 I didn't expect it to be this long XD I thought maybe 10 levels, but wow :D Really enjoyed playing it^^ The difficulty of the puzzles varied a lot. Most were really well crafted, others seemed complicated at first, but then the solution disregarded most of the elements around. (eg. the one where you have to die right at the start and only have fans. Or the one where there is a C shape conveyor belt with a TNT block at the bottom. The final puzzle was the hardest (like it should be) and it was the only one where I actually used the "action" on an animal XD
Dec 4 15:04:59 21m 03s Little Cthulhu ♥ 1 Credits in title screen should have been white or any other contrasting color, the title BGM loop is very short. "Click to start" does not work. Also the game sadly has no health system. The last jump is probably not doable unless you have an enemy on the last block, or you cheat by jumping onto the spikes. Do the enemies have more than 1 HP? At least it takes like 3 jumps onto them to vanish (and quickly respawn) It would probably also have worked better, if the tileset was twice the size (or the player/characters half the size) It's great you have something playable and testing a new engine can increase the time it takes to get stuff done significantly. I hope instead of being disappointed, you take it as motivation to improve until next time :D
Dec 4 16:04:21 59m 22s Frank's Forbidden Food Factory in a Faraway Fantasy Farm ♥ 0 A game with potential :D Only thing I noticed is, that the time still runs, while you're flipping through the book XD So you try to remember recipes and what you have on your "farm" and then struggle to grab the right thing XD Also you can'T put it down again o.o "Tab" will make your arm position change back to idle, but you're still carrying whatever you picked. One wrong pick and Game Over XD Got a score of 26, probably could have reached higher, if I didn't always mix up book and pickup. Ah yeah, waiting for the time to tick down to midnight could be annoying, especially if you only get the BBQ done.
Dec 4 16:25:07 20m 46s ISHI - Eternal Companion ♥ 2 The prerequesites for the endings might be off, also I don't think you can get "Spirit", unless there is a separate route for it I did not discover. Otherwise a very interesting experience :D I love this kind of style, still a game, but so focused on narrative^^
Dec 4 17:12:49 47m 42s Tiny Plague ♥ 3 Interesting idea, sadly the game has some rng issues. The first logger could target a tree on the far end of the area for chopping and the four trips he could have in his life are reduced to 2, yielding 18 wood instead of 38. Extending his life just a bit and making sure you get 20 food and 20 wood in time for the next generation make it easier, but the start is the hardest part.^^
Dec 4 21:32:50 4h 20m Olympus is Falling ♥ 0 The tridents seemed a bit big and the sword could need a bigger hitbox, else pretty solid. Maybe not the most fun game, but it's complete and I hope you learned something along the way :D
Dec 4 22:01:18 28m 28s Room44 ♥ 2 Really wonderful style, very enjoyable game with solid gameplay :D Totally support the suggestions for a "narrative" rating, you would top that one XD Only minor thing: if you click on the machine room after discovering the body, you are "called" to the machine room, instead of just starting the scene^^
Dec 5 02:07:12 4h 05m Cultist's Quest ♥ 1 Those dungeons floor felt pretty big XD I only got to like floor 4 or 5 before a rat killed me when I wasn't paying attention. It feels a bit weird, that unlike other games with keys, a specific key unlocks a specific door (it does make more sense though^^).
Dec 5 02:43:13 36m 01s Diortem ♥ 1 Pretty solid entry, only missing a BGM :D Without a minimap it's a bit confusing, but that's part of it, I guess XD Sadly the game does not give any "epilogue" and goes to Main menu upon escaping, and right out crashes when choosing to merge D:
Dec 5 03:10:37 27m 24s Downfall ♥ 3 Awesome mechanics, really enjoyed this puzzle game :D Also managed to get 3 stars on all of them^^ Only tiny thing that could be improved: detect, if all cities were lost, even if the infection could still spread^^ That would save a bit of time and clicking, if you screw up (those rivers are really mean XD)
Dec 5 16:54:32 13h 43m Ursa ♥ 5 The final track has me literally in tears ;_; It's one of the greatest entries I've seen/played so far. While the mechanics are simple and some of the animations are slightly glitchy (cub flickering white at edges) the little bits of dialogue add so much to it <3
Dec 5 23:34:29 6h 39m Stew Souls ♥ 0 Pretty nice entry :D Just seems play-speed is heavily influenced by FPS ^^
Dec 7 12:56:25 37h 21m STAR JUNK ♥ 0 Surely one of the top entries this time around :D Wonderful 8-directional sprites and simple gameplay (keybinds are always a plus). Also really like the "Continue" mechanic, makes it so much less frustrating, as long you still have some trash left. Gotta say though, they seem to have a lot of fish in space XD
Dec 10 18:55:45 77h 59m Pyme's Genocide ♥ 1 Really cute game, love the style :D There were only very few issues: the trampoline with the penguin on the highest platform seems to have an invisible collision above it, once you shoot the penguin aside (free floating? part of the tree?). Also at some point, after playing for quite some time/dying a lot, no more tiny critters would spawn. Dying again did not fix the issue, only reloading the page did (web version).
Dec 13 14:37:04 67h 41m King's Last Stand ♥ 1 ​Really cute looking game. Someone else seems to be using the web version to make ad money though -.- https://gamesx2.com/game/king-s-last-stand/ Also, do you have twitter by any chance? :D​
Dec 13 15:09:52 32m 48s PeonCraft - Sacrificed ♥ 2 Very interesting idea :D Was fun to play^^
Dec 13 15:23:28 13m 36s GOATWRATH ♥ 1 Nice game :D Just sometimes collision seems to cause issues and you can get stuck on/glitch through walls^^"
Dec 13 15:51:58 28m 30s Atomic Lifetime ♥ 1 Not bad for the first game :D Took me a bit to figure out you could also move diagonal using the implemented pathfinding. Some added features, like the random box at the end only make the puzzle harder, since you got plenty of time to finish the puzzle without it. The hardest puzzles were probably the ones with radiation areas.
Dec 14 11:46:47 19h 54m Birds in Space ♥ 0 Was pretty nice overall. I didn't really notice to boost and oxygen bar at first though XD Spotting the bubbles and distinguishing their contents was sometimes pretty hard, especially against light background. The new asteroid fields sometimes spawned a bit late and in one case an asteroid spawned right in front of me XD Solid entry for 3 days^^
