| Apr 29 17:10:36 | Microtransaction Mages | ♥ 2 | This is a great concept! The shift in mood between playing and working was really well executed, and your impression of a pay-to-win app was spot-on. The storyline was also really nicely implemented - the ending is just amazing. There's definitely room for more variety in enemy types and spell upgrades to keep the gameplay from getting repetitive, but for a Compo entry this is really polished! | |
| Apr 29 21:29:23 | 4h 18m | The Tenth Item in G4 | ♥ 1 | The premise is hilarious, and multiple endings are always a cool feature. I also liked how the stories wove together. Nice work! |
| May 1 04:15:12 | 30h 45m | Speedrun Your Life | ♥ 1 | Nice entry! The animations look great, and I liked the behavior of the arrow enemies. It definitely felt like running out of time was a much smaller concern than falling off platforms though - it might help to decrease the amount of time the player starts with and/or make the platforming easier. I also agree with ruddiculous that there isn't enough time to read the controls at the start; maybe you could only start moving the fire wall after the player starts moving around? Overall it was a fun experience though! |
| May 2 18:59:10 | 38h 43m | Tunnel Bug | ♥ 1 | This was really fun! The striping on the walls looks amazing, and the overall aesthetic was very consistent. The upgrade system was interesting - it looks very nice, but it started to feel kind of slow after a couple times. I think that the relatively high penalties for hitting walls also made moving slowly the best strategy, so it could be helpful to rebalance things so that passively running out of time is a bigger concern. Overall though this was a really polished entry, nice work! |
| May 2 19:04:56 | 5m 46s | Scientific Research is Gambling with You Life | ♥ 1 | I really like the idea behind this, it's a great interpretation of the theme! The gameplay started to feel a little slow after a while, it might help to have a fast-forward button or something to speed up the moving animations. Overall though this was a really cool concept, and it was fun seeing all of the different research options. |
| May 2 19:18:27 | 13m 31s | Suicide Slime Arena | ♥ 1 | Neat game! I wish that there was more variety in levels, but for a game jam entry it still felt nice and polished. It also sometimes seemed like the best strategy was to just wait around on the starting platform and spam attack until all the slimes died, I'm not sure if that was intentional or not. Overall though it was a fun experience, great work! |
| May 2 19:56:58 | 38m 31s | With It Or On It | ♥ 2 | Sorry to echo everyone else, but the graphics are fantastic! The gameplay was fairly simple, but still fun. It might help to make the timing of your attack more important, like if enemies were more vulnerable right after trying to attack or something. It also felt like jumping wasn't super useful, maybe if the enemies took time to turn around it would become more practical. The look and feel of this was very impressive, great work! |
