| Apr 29 02:10:22 | Shopping sucks the life out of you | ♥ 0 | The idea is quite fun and I think that with some work, an actual game could be made from it. The game is not really just yet. The way to win is pretty straightforward and linear. The music was not good. I loved the graphics and walking "animation". | |
| Apr 29 02:22:35 | 12m 13s | The Oarsman | ♥ 1 | I got stuck in the second level. I didn't get any upgrades and couldn't get to any higher places. Also, alt-tabbing made my computer go nuts. |
| Apr 29 02:40:01 | 17m 26s | Ballsy Escape | ♥ 2 | Alright interpretation of the theme and cute graphics. While it is nice that the shop is not controlled by mouse, I think that 3 specific key strokes just to place a box is a bit too much. I don't think there is a reason to have any inventory or shop at all, there is never a situation where you would rather have 3 boxes in your inventory than 9 health. Why not just place boxes with space and open chests with c, making it cost 3 and 2 hp, and just cutting the shop? The hotkeys made me lose a lot of hp just by mistyping. I had a feeling that the spikes were unfair. I restarted the level with the first yellow button several times. Then, I hit the "start again" button by accident, which made me quit immediately. I would much rather have interesting puzzles with limited amount of hp per level than many levels connected together. |
| Apr 29 11:15:28 | 8h 35m | Coin Platformer | ♥ 2 | The theme interpretation is cute. A bit too short, but what is there is quite fun. |
| Apr 29 12:24:42 | 1h 09m | Spend Your Life | ♥ 1 | The drag and drop is annoying. I would much rather be able to just click the buttons and they would get added in order. Or, click once to select activity, and click multiple times into the calendar to schedule it. Or, even better yet, keyboard shortcuts. This sole reason made me stop playing after 2 play throughs. I like your interpretation of the theme. Really nice look and feel, other that UI. |
| Apr 29 12:38:20 | 13m 38s | Pay to LIFE to LIVE | ♥ 1 | Quite nice execution. I don't think I understand the theme interpretation. The game got boring quite quickly as a good part of what I was doing was just waiting for the lasers to stop firing. No challenge, just wait for the lasers, move to the next part and repeat. |
| Apr 29 12:39:33 | 1m 13s | Boxes Rush | ♥ 2 | Your links are dead (404). |
| Apr 29 13:33:23 | 53m 50s | MONEYMONEYMONEY | ♥ 1 | Very small and simple with not much to it, but it does what it does and it does it well. User interface is good, the game plays well and it feels polished. The core game is just not very exciting. I also don't see the theme there. |
| Apr 29 18:44:37 | 5h 11m | Panic Percussion | ♥ 0 | I have no idea what I am doing. But it is fun! |
| Apr 29 18:45:57 | 1m 20s | Prospector Stanley | ♥ 3 | Loved it! Short and sweet. Lovely look and feel, gorgeous voice acting and nice art. |
| Apr 29 19:16:40 | 30m 43s | CurANTcy | ♥ 1 | I give up. After several tries, I got to "half way". Simple and nice, as always. |
| Apr 29 19:31:33 | 14m 53s | Heartaker | ♥ 2 | The special effects and gameplay are perfect. I am a bit confused though. I am stuck in the death screen, not having enough hearts to purchase ressurection. |
| Apr 29 19:46:59 | 15m 26s | Jumpcoins | ♥ 1 | Really like it! Nice interpretation of the theme! Why do I have to hold up to double jump, but don't have to hold anything for walljump? It is inconsistent, and I think the up arrow rule is just redundant. I am not sure about the badges at the end of the levels. First, I have no idea what are they awarded for (after completing the whole game), and they don't really make sense if you cannot quickly switch between levels and see which badges you have in which levels (same for the level times). I have no idea how many badges have I missed, and I really don't want to play through all the levels just to get to a level where I missed a badge. With the badges, it feels like I didn't really finish the game, and it would be super tedious to try and get them all. |
| Apr 30 18:53:00 | 23h 06m | Hot Slots: All In | ♥ 1 | Great polish! I won. It got very monotonous after a while. I didn't like I could only shoot in 4 directions. |
| Apr 30 22:33:46 | 3h 40m | DEADline | ♥ 3 | Man, this game is hard. I don't like that buying upgrades costs score. If the goal is to have the highest score, it is correct to not buy upgrades. I think that you should have it so you earn score for all the money you earn, but pay only money, not score, for upgrades. I played a lot of runs (15?), and got a 56 in a decent one. |
| May 1 23:41:09 | 25h 07m | Rainbow Rampage - Twitch Overlay Game | ♥ 2 | This is the one of few games I feel comfortable rating without playing it. Innovation is a definite 5/5. |
| May 2 21:21:08 | 21h 39m | Seed. | ♥ 1 | Absolutely beautiful. |
