Apr 30 20:34:03 noPRAVDA ♥ 3 Visual style of this game is really stunning. Great job making use of traditional art techniques. But I didn't quite get the message behind the game. If you do your job alright and punch those rebels, what you get in the end is basically a game over screen. If you just go away from the fight or go rebel yourseft and punch the police, you simply won't make it to the end. So the only way to get a somewhat satisfying ending is to pretend-fight rebels just so your heart-meter don't go empty, which is confusing to say the least. Overall the game plays really well and does a great job showing a mood of revolution.
May 1 00:06:13 3h 32m Dr. Ectomy ♥ 1 Whoah! This game was quite a brain challenge. We played it together with a friend switching places as one got stuck, and we completed it in half an hour or so. It's amazing how many unique levels and new gameplay mechanics you managed to create in such short amount of time.
May 1 10:04:46 9h 58m Carl Currency - Expert Exchanger ♥ 2 This was one of the best games I've played on this jam. Solving simple math puzzles combined with very tactile feeling of dragging and dropping different little trinkets creates a nice cozy mood. I really imagined myself as this Carl Currency guy sitting there with a hot cup of some weird tea and evaluating different things. 5 tooth out of 15 beetles!
May 1 10:13:14 8m 28s Swarm survival ♥ 0 Nice idea controlling the swarm and sacrificing it's units for time bonus. This game lacks graphics and polish but the core mechanics are there and overall it plays quite nicely. If only you had more time to put in some visuals.
May 1 10:26:19 13m 05s Bloodletter ♥ 1 This game gives you pretty much what you expect from the screenshots - a fast paced double barrel shotgun action. It plays really well except for the teeny tiny jump which doesn't allow jumping over projectiles and foes and thus is pretty useless. I also found the soundtrack quite unfitting to the action packed gameplay. Overall the game is really good, gun action is smooth, shots feel powerful, and it even has difficulty settings!
May 1 10:35:58 9m 39s Seaway ♥ 1 This game is visually stunning. Circle framing, smooth fade-in and out on borders, color schemes are such an eyecandy. I didn't find any harbors and navigation got broken from time to time, but overall it was a pleasure to play. And then I read the description and found out that those logs that I was collecting all the time were actually slaves! They looked like logs, they made log sounds upon pickup, hell, I still believe they are logs! This all slave thing really contradicts the overall style and relaxing feel of the game, but I guess it's just a joke from the developer.
May 1 11:54:50 1h 18m Shoot to restart ♥ 0 This game has a very interesting idea of going through the entire life in a matter of seconds. And it quite nicely wrapped in a cute-looking puzzle platformer. It's a bummer that the game has only two levels and end so quickly just at the moment when you get comfortable with controls and core mechanic and are ready for more. So yeah, overall this game is really well put together making you wish there was more of it.
May 1 12:05:32 10m 42s City33 ♥ 1 This is such a cool game. It's palette, animation style and overall zany mood reminded me of crazy times we had with friends in Superfighters Deluxe. I played it with a couple of friends and we had a blast laughing at cops shooting civillians, headhunters getting ran over by speeding cars while trying to catch us. Disappearing cash also played a part as one of us tried to rob a bank, panicked and missed it all - just like in reallife bank robbery!
