| Apr 30 20:10:47 | DollarBot - Ludum Dare 44 - First Time! | ♥ 2 | Oh wow, running out of money was... unexpected It's good to see all the kind of core features in place, moving, sound, camera controls. And the shooting money effect + the effect of your backpack/moneybag was nice. Other than move gameplay/interactable things, I think there's a few little bits of polish that would be really nice. Mainly just little things like starting the the camera zooming out, and making sure the targetting reticle doesn't disappear behind the player when you aim (maybe move the camera slightly onto the players shoulder, so you can see what you're aiming at?) This is the first game I've rated this jam, if they're all like this I'm ready for a wild ride :D | |
| Apr 30 20:30:55 | 20m 08s | Sacrifice | ♥ 0 | This is a really pretty little game, I liked the bloom, very nice on the menu screen. The game was pretty relaxing, after the initial panic of starting everyone dying at the start before I even built anything, maybe a little bit of warm up time to let you build some buildings before the bodies start piling up? I liked the chill music (although it's a very stark contrast between that and "EVERYONE IS DYING OF DISEASE" haha There's a few little touches that really added to it, like the dynamic grass that disappears when you place buildings My only critique (which is a very minor one, give it being a game jam) is that after the initial set up, once your population is stable, it seems almost impossible to lose. However with the extra features you've suggested in the description it could turn into a very nice little management game. This was fun, thank you! |
| Apr 30 20:44:56 | 14m 01s | Electric Sheep | ♥ 1 | @memel06 - I found pushing the sheep into grass made them eat, they're not very independent sheep! This concept was really interesting, and I'm impressed that you managed to tie all these bot-generated things together in one package. I feel like given a couple of tweaks this game would be pretty fun too. I found the basic gameplay loop - herding sheep to food/water - fending off wolves fun, but I want to move faster! Pushing those sheep is hard work, and chasing off a wolf only to find out all my sheep have died of hunger in the meantime was sad, maybe make their base hunger/thirst meters a little higher? I'm very curious about the Machine Learning aspect however - I am using ml-agents in my University dissertation, I couldn't imagine getting everything set up properly and making a full game with it in less than three days! How long was the training time for the AI? And had you had experience with ml-agents before this project? |
| Apr 30 20:58:34 | 13m 38s | Koe | ♥ 1 | Not the game I should have played just before bed! I liked the dark humour, and how you managed to create tension as the game ramped up, with a lot of surprises in a short space of time. Since the game was so artsy it's hard to draw meaningful critique, I think the only changes I would have made is to the popups, some were far too short before they vanished again - it's frustrating missing some of the dialogue because of it. Also, especially during the beginning as you are interacting with objects and getting pop-ups, and the "narrator" (you I guess) is also making pop-ups they can mix and get disorientating, however some could argue that is part of the atmosphere. I'm gonna go calm my nerves now xD |
| May 1 20:06:33 | 23h 07m | utsvulten | ♥ 0 | This is art. I don't know what I felt while playing it... But it was definitely an experience. Everything is so simple, but it didn't need anything else. Although, it looks like you were aiming for it to be a multiplayer experience as well. That would be quite something! |
| May 1 21:53:19 | 1h 46m | Grand Theft Life | ♥ 1 | Finally, a game that allows me to fulfil my life long dream of making G.E.C.G's a reality. Thank you. But for real, this game was actually really fun, I had one run through to see my options, then restarted to try to live the life I wanted. I'd love to see a concept like this fleshed out in full, with more options and choices to make over your life. Really good. Great interpretation of the theme too btw. |
