Apr 29 17:22:41 Minimum Viable Piggy ♥ 2 I liked the effects - both audio and visual, especially the facial animations for the piggy. They are funny. Background sound was a nice beat! The art was nice but the background colors were a bit too clashing for my eyes. Movement was intuitive and easy to control, levels seemed a bit too complicated for me since you don't really see in which directions you have to go to advance. Overall well done!
Apr 29 17:56:56 34m 15s Failing Human ♥ 2 Visual style consistent, pleasing and good to look at, however how-to text way too cramped and a bit hard to read. Music matches the game very well. Really like the trophies system, takes the game to a whole new level feature wise and adds more of a goal. If you slowed the game down a notch it would get more strategical and allow for a moment to think - right now I just found myself clicking on whatever was red :) Overall I liked the game, matches the theme fairly well in my opinion. Good job!
Apr 29 18:17:57 21m 01s Magic Forest ♥ 1 "Use left mousebutton to stabbidy stab stab" - haha, funny. :) Good style of humour :) Music and sound effects would have made the game much more live. Lacks a bit on the affordance scale, and could do with a few more enemies. Props for making a game and participating, I also submitted my first game this compo! Hope you had as much fun developing it as I did :)
Apr 29 18:38:31 20m 34s The Joy of Creationism with God Ross ♥ 1 Really nice! Love the experience - amazingly joyful and humorous. Graphics, voice acting, music everything is just on-point! A truly excellent submission!
Apr 29 19:12:07 33m 36s L.Y.L.A. - Your personal Living Your Life Assistant ♥ 1 Good art and a good solid style! Unfortunately doesn't offer much for gameplay.
Apr 29 20:41:23 1h 29m Memorandum ♥ 1 Great story(telling), game felt balanced and was very enjoyable to play. Mood is unbeatable, music makes everything come together and is just perfect! A great game, fitting the theme! Watching your postmortems really inspired me to participate in this Ludum Dare and create my first solo game ever so thanks for that! Grüße aus München! Mach's gut!
Apr 29 21:17:23 36m 00s Wanted ♥ 1 Really cool graphics - love the old kinescopic tv effect and the pixel art is just amazing! Only issue I had is with balancing - wasn't able to even advance from the first opponent, he draws so fast. Otherwise a super cool game! Cheers!
Apr 29 23:49:54 2h 32m 60 Days Till Summer ♥ 1 Nice concept and has potential to be an enjoyable text adventure. I like the simplistic low resolution graphics, makes for a good mood! Feels like 60 days to summer is waaay too long (overscoped?) though. That's either going to be too repetitive or too much content to keep interesting. Would have been really great with some intro and more gameplay.
Apr 30 00:06:18 16m 24s Space Struggle ♥ 1 Great game! I really like strategy (especially turn based) so this was really down my alley. Like the art and the music, makes for a great theme. The actions and descriptions at locations were well written. Kept my interest! Well done!
Apr 30 20:06:36 20h 00m Meaningful Life ♥ 1 The squaking startled me a little. An interesting concept, actually made me think a little and a quite alternative take on the theme - fitting I find! Great change from the usual spend HP to buy weapons (not that I am any better :D ).
Apr 30 20:25:08 18m 32s The Poor Rebellion ♥ 1 Great voice acting! I think it makes LD games super nice and unique!
Apr 30 21:22:15 57m 07s Idle Idol ♥ 0 An awesome game! As I was hooked on cookie clicker for a long time this game and as I love strategy and builder gamest this was right down my alley! I especially liked how it was at first casual clicker with planning out the layout of temples and clearing land, turned into a bit of a strategy on building placement and which to choose and was a how-fast-can-you-build at the end. So many elements I like! At first the goal of 1000 seemed really far but was actually very well balanced and made for a nice lenght gameplay! Artstyle very consistent and the colorscheme is pleasant to look at! Music and effects were maybe a tad bit intense! Truly great and in every aspect the perfect LD submission! PS! I might have had a bug - after winning and clicking replay I started with one of the blue buildings left behind and the cultist count was -290/10 :)
Apr 30 22:59:46 1h 37m utsvulten ♥ 0 ## **SPOILERS BELOW** ## Such a nice experience, just wow - what a game and what a mood. I was actually scared when I accidentally pulled my scalp off when reaching for grapes ... Liked the music a lot!
May 1 19:08:01 20h 08m Methods for Instructing Thine Dragon ♥ 0 I played as Zeilzriess, Eater Of All, courtesy of https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/dragon_names.php xD and I really liked it! The controls were too impossible for me to flap the wings more than a few times before I crashed in the swamp but the overall game is very well made and very attractive. Bonus points for music and the narrated instructions. You actually have the voice of a dragon trainer - you'd fit well in the Eragon universe. :D Did you play the guitar yourself or is it synth? Props for a nice game! :)
May 1 19:44:37 36m 36s We Pay In Blood ♥ 1 Quite difficult to play, I feel like a little knockback effect would have made the game a lot more fun with the same settings. Right now I felt super rushed and had to always time my hit and run strategy and died pretty often. Otherwise nice! :)
May 1 20:19:15 34m 38s Soul CATcher ♥ 2 Like that you integrated the controls in such an intuitive manner introducing the game straight away. Awesome animations and art style. Great eerie music. All in all a very nice game, although the enemies are a bit too agressive/there is too many of them for my taste. I actually made a game with the exact same principle - a cat platformer where you must spend lives to gain abilities that help you advance. Even the cost of the abilities - 2 lives - is the same! :D Check it out under my games! Your execution is on a whole other level obviously. :)
May 1 20:51:00 31m 45s A Miner's Life ♥ 1 Props to Ethan and Remi right off the bat, the music is amazing and creates the atmosphere instantly! The art was nice and I really loved the death animation! The game was a bit too hard for my liking but all in all a great job, all of you!
May 1 20:57:44 6m 44s Immortal's game ♥ 0 Great art, overall very nice and felt polished and smooth. Liked the controls
May 1 21:14:55 17m 11s Sinner ♥ 4 Huge team :O Must have been hard to divide tasks. Animations, audio and art are great. For some reason the name and the cover were misleading - didn't expect a hack-and-slash wave defender (if that's how they are called) - don't get me wrong, it was fun! Well done!
May 1 21:48:30 33m 35s Lifeless ♥ 2 An amazing, artistic, abstract experience that gets the theme best that I have seen so far! This is what all jam games should be! Spent a bit more than 20 minutes and worth it every second! TRULY AMAZING WORK! 10/5!
May 1 22:00:03 11m 33s Lifeless Treasure ♥ 1 Really nice! Best top down shooter I have seen this jam, very much liked the simplistic graphics. The enemies and the weapons were well balanced, the gameplay was dynamic but not too fast paced. I also liked to search around the arena for enemies. Well done, cool game!
May 2 18:19:44 20h 19m Venture-Out! ♥ 1 Wow. Really great! How do you even get the idea to make a DOS game? :) Good job, lots of fun to play. Only thing that bothered me a little was when I moved too much left or right and was automatically in the next level, resetting my current one. Otherwise fun to play!
May 2 18:41:12 21m 28s Seaway ♥ 2 Well this is just professional work. How that was done within 72h I have no clue. Amazing! Naval battles were a lot of fun! I did encouter two bugs. Sometimes my ship would just do donuts (manual, not autopilot mode) and sometimes the harbors don't display the prices for objects. Should've opted out of audio if you got music from purple planet. Otherwise just amazing.
May 2 19:13:47 32m 35s Robooto ♥ 1 A key does not work when moving left in the windows build. Got bit of edgy feel with the dabbing. Music is nice and fitting! Graphics could do with a bit of consistency - the yellow rounded dabber didn't really fit the the black, white, rectangular level design. On the other hand mechanics were great, I liked the magnet feature.
May 3 14:46:36 19h 32m Sinking Town ♥ 2 I like the random beeps and bops. Music fits the theme and mood well. For me on the graphics side the player resolution was a bit too low compared to rest of the scene. Game is filled with content and lots of places and nooks to find and explore. Loved the camera slicing the building when indoors. Great game!
May 3 16:13:00 1h 26m Mint ♥ 1 I really liked playing this game! Liked the dark mood but sometimes it was a bit hard to see, music was great, sound effects as well. Sadly couldn't figure out how to do plated coins and alloys. Managed a Koala and that was it so a tutorial on the forge would have been good. Also a little bug - coming down from the initial pathway right next to the wall I was able to walk on the wall above the lamps. Otherwise great game!
May 3 16:43:05 30m 05s Scrapitalism ♥ 0 Cool little space shooter, music was nice and I am always a fan of vocal SFX. Nice game!
May 4 12:24:42 19h 41m Pouche ♥ 1 Interesting take on the theme and gameplay. I do feel however that a Menu and a description of the goal would have made the experience much better. Now I was a bit clueless and had no idea what to do and that took away from the overall fun.
May 4 13:25:16 1h 00m Pay With Your Blood ♥ 0 Music is amazing, gameplay and sfx as well. Really well done. Only thing I would recommend is to make the player just a little bit bigger in relation to the level. Usually I don't really like top down shooters but this was actually fun! Well done!
May 5 11:57:37 22h 32m UnderBreak ♥ 1 I could shoot enemies from behind obstacles, they couldnt hit me, otherwise just an amazing game, loved every mechanic about it. An amazing entry for the jam!
May 5 13:39:37 1h 42m Biomass ♥ 1 Cool and unique gameplay mechanics. For me the game was a bit too fast paced. At least starting slow and getting faster would have made it a bit more enjoyable as opposed to dive in and not understand what is going on at the beginning. Some sound effects or music would have made it even better. In general a pretty great game! :)
May 19 21:49:56 344h 10m Gravy Train ♥ 0 Nice game! Took me a minute to understand what I have to do, but then was super obvious :D Cool concept and a good idea. Lacking a bit on the theme front, though.
