| May 6 21:07:09 | Loot Goblin | ♥ 0 | Overall, this was a fun idea, but it lacked some gameplay depth as well as some polish. | |
| May 6 21:19:12 | 12m 03s | Butt Poke | ♥ 1 | Fun entry with addictive gameplay, nice graphics, and moody levels. It maybe lacks some variation in the sound department tho. |
| May 6 21:37:10 | 17m 58s | Sheep It | ♥ 2 | Superb graphics, great animations, interesting "hidden features", a very polished feeling. I was able to walk out of the map and the game got reset, which was annoying. Also, my character's animation sometimes froze in the middle of jumping. With some more explanations about the gameplay, this could be a great game! |
| May 6 21:53:55 | 16m 45s | Sick Business | ♥ 2 | The minigames were completely unexpected and tons of fun. Very polished game. |
| May 6 22:03:19 | 9m 24s | Bob the Zombie | ♥ 1 | The voice acting was fun, the graphics were great and the overall mood was nice. However, the core gameplay needs some polishing and better balancing. |
| May 10 21:45:14 | 95h 41m | Warlock : Soul War | ♥ 2 | Nice graphics and sound effects. Solid gameplay but it might need some more balancing. Also it wasn't obvious what the actual target of the game was. Fun entry to play! Keep it up :) |
| May 10 22:00:54 | 15m 40s | Collecting Really Nice Cats! | ♥ 1 | I like the amount of nice cats contained in this game. The mechanics were simplistic but fun, the visuals appealing, and the sounds hilarious! |
| May 10 22:12:48 | 11m 54s | Devil's Dirty Work | ♥ 1 | Great little entry. I had quite some fun and in the end I was even able to collect more than 100 souls. The mouse input was a bit unnecessary, I just left the cursor in the top right corner and never touched it because all other directions would basically mean death. Thank you very much for the game! |
| May 10 22:18:44 | 5m 56s | S.U.C.E.S | ♥ 1 | Fun little game! Interesting interpretation of the theme. Unable to hear any audio in the webplayer though. |
| May 10 22:51:16 | 32m 32s | Idle Idol | ♥ 1 | Didn't know I was into "clicker"-games. Great entry! |
| May 10 22:57:52 | 6m 36s | D.R.I.E.D. | ♥ 2 | Very nice entry: Great graphics and atmosphere! A litte too short for my taste though... |
| May 11 17:28:15 | 18h 30m | 2nd Bank | ♥ 1 | Great graphics and audio. The controls and interaction might require some more polishing. Nice entry! |
| May 11 18:08:49 | 40m 34s | TheDescent | ♥ 2 | Great entry! Liked it very much. The only negative was that the music was turned off after the first death somehow. Very solid graphics and a lot of game systems for the short amount of time. 👍 |
| May 11 18:20:59 | 12m 10s | Gachapaw Dungeon Crawl | ♥ 2 | Very solid art style! It was hard to understand the actual mechanic behind the first room: Pick you weapon of choice at random or die and retry if it doesn't show up? At least that's what I did... Other than that: very nice entry with a lot of mechanics for the short time. |
| May 11 18:29:07 | 8m 08s | Daybreak Inn | ♥ 1 | Very nice concept! The graphics are really solid. Would have loved to play it in fullscreen but the UI wasn't properly scaled on a HD monitor (1920x1080). Thank's for making this game. |
| May 13 20:36:26 | 50h 07m | Angry Planet | ♥ 1 | Beatifully hand-drawn art and a unique concept make this game stand out from all the compo games. The goofy voice-acting was also pretty fun. I would have loved some music to round the experience. Also, the controls were not too intuitive. But all in all, I really enjoyed your game! |
| May 13 20:48:28 | 12m 02s | Blood Rite | ♥ 1 | This game is an impressing achievement! Your art was fun to look at, the audio perfectly conveyed the mood, and while the concept of "time only progresses when you move" may not be new, it still felt refreshing. Especially the last level had a real sense of achievement to it once you've completed it, the others may have been a tad too simple. All in all, great job! |
| May 13 21:03:48 | 15m 20s | Danko | ♥ 0 | I always enjoy jam games that feature fully-fledged menus, and you have obviously put a lot of effort into the still images and UI. At first, the gameplay is a little opaque (Maybe full text instructions in the trade menu instead of just icons and numbers?), but once you find everything out, the game is great fun. The enemy designs are disgustingly perfect and the theme is well-executed. However, as others mentioned, the power-ups are not balanced too well (ranged attack is overpowered, whereas I've always died too quickly once I've traded my heart). Great work! |
| May 13 21:17:59 | 14m 11s | Black Friday Shopping | ♥ 2 | Despite the horrible graphics, I enjoyed the mood of this game. Missing sound effects and poorly balanced weapons in the original version took away some of the game's magic. Also, a way to close the game without pressing Alt+F4 would've been nice ;) This is a solid, humourous take on the theme, but it could have been so much greater with a few more hours of polish (as delivered with the post-jam-version). |
| May 13 21:39:25 | 21m 26s | Your life is my money | ♥ 1 | Very interesting take on the theme, it was great fun to run around with all the animals chained to you. While the sounds are well executed (especially the animal sounds!), the volume mixing could have been balanced better. The graphics were mostly beautiful, except for the "rough edges" that the map had to it in remote areas. When triggering chests, the objects fly all over the place and can get stuck easily, which should be fixed. |
| May 13 22:55:06 | 1h 15m | Computers in a Nutshell | ♥ 1 | Thanks for making me feel both unbelievably stupid and tremendously clever :'D This was by far the jam game that I've spent the most time with, so thank you for this all-too-familiar experience. |
| May 14 21:58:05 | 23h 02m | Jamsterdam | ♥ 2 | Artistically, this is an absolute masterpiece of a jam game! The graphics are vivid, the music is beautiful, the pedestrians and all the movement going on convey a great urban mood. Also, I am completely in love with the singing mechanic, including the hand movements was a brilliant idea! If there was anything negative I had to look for, then I'd say the feedback for singing is a bit vague - do I need to stay in rhythm with the band? Is the tone pitch important for success? All in all: Thank you for this great game! |
| May 14 22:10:54 | 12m 49s | Kill Kill Bank Bank | ♥ 1 | Catchy music, nice visuals, and solid level of polish on this game. However, it seems to have its problems with software mouse acceleration - aiming was terribly "jumpy". I would have wished for some more challenging enemy types and some occasionally scattered props. |
| May 17 19:56:23 | 69h 45m | Victor Spumante And The Raindrops of Burgundy | ♥ 1 | I am sexually aroused by this. |
| May 17 20:10:54 | 14m 31s | What do YOU want? | ♥ 3 | The art is fun to look at, the gameplay is unique, and you've pretty much nailed the theme perfectly! This was a lot of fun. |
| May 17 20:33:52 | 22m 58s | Bloodletter | ♥ 1 | I love how smooth the gameplay was, complemented by eye candy graphics. In my opinion, the blood sacrifice did not give you enough of an advantage compared to the handicap it gave you. Strafing was a way more beneficial tactic. Overall, I'm impressed by what you've deliviered here! |
| May 20 16:24:02 | 67h 50m | See:NoMore | ♥ 1 | I loved the scenario and the mini-game itself. In later levels I found it hard to distinguish the start node visually, so I just dragged all arrows into the empty nodes until the start node got more visible. Honestly, the lack of sound effects didn't make the game any worse, it even underlined the dystopian mood a little :P Great job with this game, I'm looking forward to seeing the remaster. |
