| Apr 29 22:16:02 | Idle Idol | ♥ 0 | Feels polished, juiced up and professional. I do think it scaled a bit slowly, but it did keep me entertained for a while. Great job! | |
| Apr 29 22:21:58 | 5m 56s | utsvulten | ♥ 1 | What is there to say about this...thing? The presentation is very fluid and professional, and very interesting and creative. I'm not a 100% sure whether it captures the theme, but at the end of the day that's not what's important. As some other commenters mentioned I feel some Salad Fingers in this entry, all that childhood trauma welling up again 😅 |
| Apr 29 22:25:55 | 3m 57s | A Moment To Reflect | ♥ 1 | An experience more than a game. But a wholesome and visually pretty experience |
| Apr 29 22:31:03 | 5m 08s | Spring Piggy Break | ♥ 1 | The graphic style on the pig reminds me a lot of Cyriak. Inventive game! |
| Apr 30 11:38:41 | 13h 07m | Sour Business! | ♥ 1 | Fun and whimsical little game, however the lemonade stops spraying after a minute or so, unfortunately. |
| Apr 30 11:45:00 | 6m 19s | Wendy the Witch in "Mind Your Damned Business!" | ♥ 0 | The mouse movement is pretty weird in this one. I like the idea, but its way too difficult (or I'm too stupid to figure it out). I keep spiralling the blood around and around enemies but it only does damage sometimes and I die in seconds every time. Interesting take on the theme, but I think it needs a little more work. |
| Apr 30 12:09:57 | 24m 57s | Fateful Dealings | ♥ 1 | Interesting entry, the one that have kept me entertained the longest so far! Quite innovative - great job! |
| Apr 30 15:19:28 | 3h 09m | Choice of Life | ♥ 1 | I didn't get very far in, but I loved the concept. Well done! |
| Apr 30 16:28:59 | 1h 09m | 5 Minute Dungeon | ♥ 1 | Felt fun and satisfying gameplay-wise. I really liked the enemy AI, it felt pretty professional and not too janky. I do agree about the sounds that they were a bit on the painful side (have done this mistake myself before), and the content not too fleshed out. Overall good work and congrats on finishing! |
| Apr 30 17:24:13 | 55m 14s | Robin | ♥ 0 | Can't launch it, unfortunately. I do believe something as game-breaking as that is allowed to be fixed after the fact. |
| Apr 30 17:28:33 | 4m 20s | LifeShot | ♥ 1 | Was very difficult, tried three or four times and didn't get a single kill. That being said, the game feels very polished and satisfying. Is the music procedurally generated? It sounds really interesting. Actually had the idea of making a Agar-type game myself for this LD |
| Apr 30 20:25:45 | 2h 57m | DISREGARD LIFE, ACQUIRE CURRENCY | ♥ 1 | Graphics and presentation was absolutely mind blowing, the reflections in the water, the star map, I mean - the works. Gameplay-wise I think it has a way to go though, and yes the font was a bit hard to make split-second decisions with. Great entry! |
| Apr 30 20:48:14 | 22m 29s | Ollo's Life | ♥ 1 | Extra points for ACTUALLY making a Gameboy game FOR the gameboy! Thank you for giving us the option to -not- save that stupid a**hole child by the way, it's like he tried to die in the most ways possible in the shortest possible time frame. Go live your life Ollo, who is to say that d-bag wont chow down on some bleach the second he gets the chance when you're gone! |
| Apr 30 21:26:24 | 38m 10s | Fair n Square | ♥ 0 | Rockin soundtrack! |
| Apr 30 21:36:34 | 10m 10s | DEA-7H | ♥ 1 | Very cool game, though I find it a bit hard. Agree with some other people with having an option to speed up dialogue. |
| Apr 30 21:44:22 | 7m 48s | Life Path | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun little experience! Had a giggle now and then, makes you think about real life too. |
| Apr 30 21:57:22 | 13m 00s | The Fountain of Youth | ♥ 0 | Pretty fun story driven game. The questionable English didn't really deduct much from the experience. I lived for a billion billion years and got to learn the secrets of the universe |
| Apr 30 22:30:39 | 33m 17s | Life for Likes | ♥ 1 | Entertaining game with an interesting concept. I feel the variety could have been a little bigger, or maybe give more special unique things to hunt that perfect selfie with. Was killed by a levitating dog. Great job finishing! Feels pretty well-rounded and polished |
| May 1 00:24:32 | 1h 53m | Life is Strange | ♥ 0 | That was a very different experience that could potentially be something really cool! The resources reminded me a bit about Reigns |
| May 1 00:33:14 | 8m 42s | Victor Spumante And The Raindrops of Burgundy | ♥ 1 | Really fun weird game! Reminded me a bit about Froggy Fractions in a good way |
| May 1 13:03:14 | 12h 30m | Blood Pressure | ♥ 1 | I love the Downwell style and how minimal but functional this is! The blood regaining reminds me a lot of the "focus" effect in Hollow Knight and makes you think about when you can squeeze in a pause in order to get some health back - tactical! I do find it becoming too difficult too quickly, however, because of the knock back those blue dudes can easily chain hits and rack up some sick damage. Perhaps some i-frames would have solved that |
| May 1 13:24:51 | 21m 37s | Escape from Hell | ♥ 1 | The art is beautiful as stated by many others, and the gameplay tedious as also stated by many others. Slow movement, you get sent back all the time, grinding for souls, floaty controls etc. makes the gameplay a bit on the not so enjoyable side unfortunately. The mood is amazing however and the concept is definitely sound. Great work! |
| May 1 13:36:26 | 11m 35s | Bloodletter | ♥ 1 | This is by far my favorite entry I've payed this LD. Super fluid movement, engaging mechanics, massively impressive graphics considering the time frame, fitting music, great polish, overall deserves a lot of praise! Improvements for me would be to fix collision/movement a bit on bumpy ground (rocks), give you the possibility to tactically reload after 1 shot, have a greater enemy variety, and a FOV slider |
| May 1 14:58:22 | 1h 21m | Tunnel Bug | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun, well polished game! I find the difficulty curve a bit steep, but the game resets quickly and is pretty fun in the short run. Good job! |
| May 1 21:34:04 | 6h 35m | Delta Fighter | ♥ 1 | Fun, functional and interesting. I feel like the ring hitbox was a bit unforgiving, and there wasn't too much content or variety, but for what it is it is very satisfying |
| May 1 21:56:09 | 22m 05s | Angry Planet | ♥ 1 | Very fun, inventive game, and I love the hand-drawn aesthetic! I feel the clouds moved a little slowly though, but for the short experience that it is its a pretty fulfilling one |
| May 1 22:04:13 | 8m 04s | A Heart of Gold | ♥ 1 | Bonus points for that really cool goat man char portrait! |
| May 1 22:10:36 | 6m 23s | Rashness | ♥ 2 | I could tell before opening the game that this was going to be polished and boy was I right! I love the idea of a single difficult boss fight for a jam game, it means that there is a logical end to the game while keeping the scope small. Overall very fun and challenging! |
| May 2 00:48:01 | 2h 37m | Boxes Rush | ♥ 1 | I can appreciate the effort that went into this. Some of the features like the mini-map are pretty cool, but I feel the game is lacking in the basics. The gameplay is not terribly engaging, and the controls definitely do not feel 100% right. Overall good effort! |
| May 2 01:05:03 | 17m 02s | Drowning in the Rain | ♥ 1 | The most polished one I've played this LD. Powerful stuff. If anything to critique, I feel that for one, the puzzles weren't very intuitive, the character movement was a bit slow, and the mouse was redonkolously sensitive (had to manually turn my DPI as far down as it goes and still had light speed mouse movement). Great, great work! |
| May 2 01:14:47 | 9m 44s | Undercave | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept! The AI was as mentioned by many others a bit wonky, and the controls (crouch jumping especially) were a bit fiddly. I also found the game to hard and couldn't complete it, but that's more a fault on my part. Good job! |
| May 2 01:22:24 | 7m 37s | BulletHearts | ♥ 1 | The aesthetic was excellent, however I feel the gameplay needs a little refining. You are sometimes completely ganked at the very start of a round, for instance. I also feel the player moves way too slow - if he moved a bit faster you would have tactical dodging as a possibility, but as it is now you are almost always hit by the projectiles no matter what. All that being said, the core mechanic IS engaging and very intuitive. I think this could make a great game with some additional polish! |
| May 2 16:01:31 | 14h 39m | Bloody Runner | ♥ 1 | Cool graphics, gameplay was a bit repetitive as expected from an arcade style game. If I had any specific critique it would be that sometimes it is just not possible to avoid taking a hit, and sometimes you start by taking one or even multiple hits before you have a chance to react. Cool project overall |
| May 2 16:04:32 | 3m 01s | A Burning Rabbit Experiment | ♥ 1 | Very tight and cohesive gameplay. Interesting idea as well. My one critique is that the background is too saturated making it much harder to distinguish what's foreground and background in tight situations. Great entry! |
| May 2 16:23:13 | 18m 41s | safecrack | ♥ 0 | In pure fun, I think this is probably the best I've played this LD. Super intuitve and satisfying, but I miss having more things to upgrade. |
| May 2 16:36:37 | 13m 24s | Microtransaction Mages | ♥ 0 | Cool concept and some great art in there! Would have liked a bit more variety and perhaps turning "working" into a more entertaining mini-game. As it stands, the working part is (intentionally) pretty unnecessary, more like some humorous stab at society, but not viable for the long run. |
| May 2 16:43:40 | 7m 03s | Hollow Priest | ♥ 1 | Two words: rocket jumping! I was always a sucker for FPS movement puzzles (rocket jumping, HL-puzzles, surf, b-hops). The game froze when the boss hit me, however... |
| May 2 16:53:32 | 9m 52s | Potion Wolf | ♥ 1 | Fun graphics and compelling premise, however the movement was a bit slippery and the implementation could have been tighter. (More feedback when gathering ingredients). I'd also like a little more time per round and instead slow the player down a bit, that's my two cents at least. Good job |
| May 2 17:04:08 | 10m 36s | Bet Your Life | ♥ 1 | Got up to 900 years. Pretty fun idea if a little repetitive after a while. The devil should start cheating when you get the better of him! |
| May 2 17:47:30 | 43m 22s | Boil Them | ♥ 1 | One of my favorites this LD, though I wish it had a final goal. The art style, mood and presentation are all on point! |
| May 2 17:52:29 | 4m 59s | SimuCorp | ♥ 1 | Interesting take on the theme |
| May 2 17:58:59 | 6m 30s | Peak Myths | ♥ 1 | Funny experimental game, or more like an art piece critical of modern gaming. Definitely a different way of solving the theme! |
| May 2 18:07:27 | 8m 28s | Battery is here to stay | ♥ 1 | I agree that the cursor and hit boxes were too unresponsive, some bugs meant I had several of the same items in the inventory, and ultimately the buttons on the top left stopped working most of the time. I applaud the ambition, however! |
| May 11 11:53:12 | 209h 45m | Sigillis | ♥ 1 | The only entry so far this LD where I'm actually inclined to look at the source code. Amazing job getting this to work at that level in a LD! |
| May 11 11:57:18 | 4m 06s | Soul Surge | ♥ 0 | Cool idea and cute execution, however I find the gameplay somewhat unenjoyable unfortunately. |
| May 11 12:05:13 | 7m 55s | This is your life now | ♥ 0 | Very fun and polished experience. I didn't like how it judges your life at the end though, I was ok with my choices and their consequences, but it just said "eh, you can do better". Overall amazing job though, the level of polish is unreal |
| May 11 12:10:00 | 4m 47s | Kill The Money | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun and feels finished. I think the enemies take way too many hits to kill, however, and I don't see why you have to use the mouse to shoot when its not used to aim. Overall good job though! |
| May 11 12:18:30 | 8m 30s | Battery Life | ♥ 1 | Fun interesting concept. I like the models/shaders a lot even if the rooms are a bit empty overall. It gives a certain "portal" feeling to it all. A few annoyances: The enemies can deplete your energy enough that you can't win but also can't lose. The camera is locked to the player so you can't always see where the enemies are. Collision is a bit finicky at times. I'm only saying this because overall I think the core game is really good! |
| May 11 12:24:04 | 5m 34s | Seeds Of Life | ♥ 1 | Simple, pretty fun game. I didn't understand that I needed to press the buy seeds button at first and I kept killing myself by pressing the upgrade weapon. That being said, after I pressed the correct button it was pretty straight forward. |
| May 11 12:54:22 | 30m 18s | ｉｎｖｅｒｔｅｂｒａｅ | ♥ 1 | Impressive. "Big Woof" saved your "Humor"-grade greatly. Probably the most polished I've played this LD. Owing in part to its simple mechanics and style, but still. Gives off a professional vibe and contains some solid writing. |
| May 11 12:57:25 | 3m 03s | Timezone | ♥ 1 | It plays almost more as a puzzle than an action game, which is very interesting! Great polish and amazing soundtrack. (I didn't get far however.) |
| May 18 17:57:50 | 173h 00m | Collecting Really Nice Cats! | ♥ 1 | Fun entry, the victory sound effect was a treat. |
