May 3 20:46:18 Seaway ♥ 1 Beautiful game - excellent polish and lovely art style and music and exploration. I am going to second what others have been saying above regarding slavery - I can totally appreciate how it relates to the theme - but I think it's just a very sensitive subject matter for a game jam, particularly when it's presented in such a trivialising way. For example, aliens invading and enslaving the human race would be less problematic than a stylised depiction of an idealised swashbuckling perspective on the Atlantic Slave Trade. I know you're not endorsing Slavery™️ with this game, but I think it's a missed opportunity - we should use our powers as game makers for good! Yeah otherwise completely excellent work! - looking forward to seeing your next LD entry!
May 3 21:38:20 52m 02s missed messages. ♥ 1 Beautiful Wonderful Masterful Excellent and Brilliant
May 6 11:44:07 62h 05m This is your life now ♥ 0 A really ambitious game and a really smart execution - made me feel stuff majorly!
May 6 11:58:44 14m 37s Darkest Decision ♥ 3 Very atmospheric and foreboding! I like the mechanics too - Only small criticism, I wasn't sure exactly what the icons at the top pertained to - I knew there was health and food and faith and stuff but I forgot which one meant which - Maybe like a hoverstate on the icons that come up with the names of them? Lovely stuff - looking forward to your next LD entry!
May 6 12:26:42 27m 58s Drytown ♥ 1 I liked it! The choice of a vampiretown rpg is really inspired and fitting for the theme - Cute puzzles and I enjoyed tentacle tennis, I think a more fluid and interesting combat system / way of grinding for blood would make this game feel more rounded and satisfying, but otherwise a wonderful little gem 💎
May 6 17:59:49 5h 33m A Pirate's Reward ♥ 1 I really enjoyed this - I liked running rings around the other ships and waiting to give them a broadside was very satisfying!
May 6 18:16:37 16m 48s Menorah's Quest ♥ 1 Nice lighting effects!
May 6 18:27:41 11m 04s Jamsterdam ♥ 0 He he he hee I love procedural cute synth voices
May 6 19:01:12 33m 31s A life in Far-West ♥ 1 Fun to play dodging around arrows and staying alive. I have to say though - I think a game about enacting genocide on Native Americans is just very problematic. Maybe the cowboy could shoot bandits instead?
