| May 1 08:48:26 | Greendy | ♥ 1 | Nice idea, perfectly fits the theme. It's fast, controls well, and I had fun playing a few games. Maybe there could be a stronger emphasis on the tactics (like I can destroy trees that are targeted to redirect enemies and get wood). Ideal length for LD too, overall a really good job. Only thing I didn't like was the music (sound was fine) :) | |
| May 4 08:54:45 | 72h 06m | A day at the farm | ♥ 1 | I have to be honest, this surprised me and had fun playing it. Good concept, seems well balanced. Few issues I'd change - the attacking could use some work - either indicate better or get away with the mouse altogether and just use keyboard. Second one is I committed suicide a few times. I can understand the death by fertilization, but I would not allow it in the shop. |
| May 5 09:35:14 | 24h 40m | Rising Pyramid | ♥ 0 | I can't finish it!! Will have to take a pause from it. Really good game I think, right in my alley. I feel like the upgrade controls should be improved somehow, not sure how. Maybe even move the controls completely to the keyboard - place by arrows like tetris (left right to move, up/down to swap), space to drop, 1-4 to select, shift+1-4 to upgrade.. only the conversion could end up on the mouse? Maybe it can even be played without that mechanic, not sure. But that's just me guessing, you probably know better. The visuals are not that great, but they are clear enough and certainly don't take anything from the game. So that's good. I did not get it right away after reading the tutorial, but could play it a after few tries (took me a few more to figure out I could rotate the blocks). Overall a really good entry, albeit a bit niche. |
| May 5 12:47:48 | 3h 12m | My first LD Game: Mutant Lemonade Stand | ♥ 1 | I enjoyed playing this, some good tactics just around energy/health. At first I wasn't sure how the day ends (until I read the description, duh). The text between days was a bit hard to read and the graphics were rather simple.. but neither interfered with the gameplay which worked :) Also, good music. |
| May 5 19:47:52 | 7h 00m | Biomass | ♥ 1 | The controls worked great, had zero issues with it and I was surprised after reading how it should work. Few minor nitpicks about the gameplay: - at times, especially at beginning there was a lot of downtime (just flicking stuff away, waiting for one stone, and waiting...) - the bad impact had both big effect (resetting your progress and possibly knocking you down a level) and too little of an effect (basically just set you a bit back) at the same time; I think the impact should be bigger but it would be easier to get back on so it doesn't drag jumping up and down levels.. but not sure how that would work :) Overall a good idea, very well executed. |
| May 8 11:16:18 | 63h 28m | The Price | ♥ 0 | One thing I can give this game is that it controls very well and it's fun to run around, trying to stay on paths :) |
| May 8 11:46:40 | 30m 22s | Love Defense | ♥ 0 | The balance was not great, but I had fun blasting waves and waves of enemies. Great enough variety of towers, good upgrade/sell system. Could use some visual indicator of how upgraded the tower is maybe. Good entry. |
| May 8 12:54:38 | 1h 07m | Hide’n’run | ♥ 0 | I like the idea. Controls (placing the blocks) was a bit hard, but otherwise felt well. What I would like is a way to abort buying something. |
| May 18 19:41:30 | 246h 46m | Mutual Exchange | ♥ 1 | Interesting one, really like the idea. The level/tutorial design was great. Unfortunately the controls made it frustrating to play. |
| May 19 09:44:23 | 14h 02m | The Ultimate Frontier | ♥ 1 | Great and complete entry. Nice consistent graphics, sound, story, progress... If I'd had to list some things I didn't like: * Not clear whether I should continue once I bought out all items (is there a final goal?) * The enemies were frustrating, being so close to ground. Not sure what the best solution would be without making them bigger and easy to kill, but I really didn't like shooting ground right in front of them * Some minor bugs: controls get stuck/nonresponsive when weapon overheats, you can run outside of map as well as enemies, enemies can't navigate if they are above you But overall a really well made game. Good job! |
| May 19 11:42:54 | 1h 58m | SimuCorp | ♥ 1 | Love these kinds of games. With some additions of lists and tables (how much money floor makes, employees profit, etc...), ability to remove "furniture", move people around floors, buying floors (and buildings) at my own pace, it could be fun for some time (for people like me at least). Very solid entry, besides the genre I especially like the graphics of the workers, as well as their sounds. |
