Apr 30 19:18:04 Space Rescue ♥ 3 Nice game! The concept is a recurring one during this jam, but the assets look nice and the overall gameplay is smooth, making the execution pretty great. Shooting an enemy is almost certainly a death sentence, as soon as the enemy has line of sight, it can shoot faster than me. I got pretty far with turrets and traps though, although it gets really difficult after a while. Overall, really polished title, the game feel is certainly there and the placement system is great. Only the shooting feels a bit weak. Nice job!
Apr 30 19:28:12 10m 08s Bioenfluencer ♥ 2 Nice mechanics and concept here. I really liked the take on the theme and that the game was unique. The matrix mehcanic is cool too, and the overall gamefeel is certainly there. Unfortunately, I ran out of stuff to do after a short while and I wasn't sure, whether I messed up something or not. Nice job!
Apr 30 19:41:14 13m 02s Lifelight ♥ 2 Really polished and moody bullet hell shooter! The sprites look fantastic and the controls are smooth. I don't really see much connection with the theme though and the new mechanic is basically a life system. Nevertheless, nice job.
Apr 30 19:54:22 13m 08s Skeleron ♥ 1 Solid idea here, that could expanded. Right now, it's a bit buggy, sometimes the timer fails, sometimes the door fails, sometimes the enemies are on the other side of the wall, breaking the game. Nice take on the theme, but a bit unpolished.
Apr 30 20:09:52 15m 30s Meaningful Life ♥ 1 Very very nice concept here! It was short, yes, but it left quite an impression. Really interesting take on the theme and a quite unique experience. I think the dark souls end screen kinda makes a joke out of the otherwise quite terrifying scene.
Apr 30 20:19:28 9m 36s The Poor Rebellion ♥ 1 Yeah, this is a bit all over the place, a bit more clarity would have been nice. I am actually quite fond of the art style, and the design, but it needs a bit more expanding.
Apr 30 20:24:24 4m 56s Cat Your Life on It ♥ 2 Graphically, this looks really nice and the take on theme is unique, but I don't really see the "game" aspect of this execution, since there doesn't seem to be an end goal. Fun idea, but a bit more gameplay would be nice!
Apr 30 20:27:48 3m 24s AstrO2 ♥ 1 Nice and simple! Thematically fitting!
Apr 30 20:37:46 9m 58s The cold ♥ 2 Nice atmosphere and music. but I don't what I should do, I just froze a few times.
Apr 30 20:48:07 10m 21s Where Is My Liver ♥ 1 Nice concept, but it was a bit too difficult for me. Because of this, it feels kinda grindy.
Apr 30 20:51:09 3m 02s Guttula (HTML) ♥ 1 Nice sprites, but I am not sure I see the value in the increased mana stuff. Am I missing a mechanic?
Apr 30 20:57:11 6m 02s Hospital Horrors ♥ 1 Cool game! Solid foundation, and design choices. It's simple, but challenging. Well done!
Apr 30 21:04:47 7m 36s The Price To Pay ♥ 2 Really polished experience. Sprites look really amazing and the design is a solid foundation. The narrative is interesting too, and I liked that it actually played a part in the game. The visuals are top notch and so are the enemies. I do have to issues, first the controls are a bit uncomfortable and the enemies hurt you without even playing their attack animation. Since controlling the player is a bit slippery, it makes the fights really unfair.
Apr 30 22:02:12 57m 25s Face to Death ♥ 4 I couldn't even get past the first enemy. A main menu would be nice too.
Apr 30 22:09:01 6m 49s Paid in Blood ♥ 1 Man, I was unlucky... Really unlucky. Nice concept. My only gripe is that because of the luck factor it kinda lacks agency, just a bit more control over the odds would be nice. Nevertheless the texts are interesting to read and add to the worldbuilding! nice job!
Apr 30 22:19:09 10m 08s Generator defense ♥ 0 Interesting concept. It's definitely something I have seen before during this game jam. Even our game uses this mechanic slightly. Nevertheless, this was fun. I think I died during upgrading a turret. Good job!
Apr 30 22:23:01 3m 52s Life Factory Inc. ♥ 0 Um... I am not sure what's happening here. I got stuck on the second level, which seems to be empty. Pretty dark concept frankly, but I don't see the connection to the theme.
Apr 30 22:27:29 4m 28s Procházka ♥ 0 Very nice artwork and I liked the thematic connection. A bit more gameplay would be nice, but this was already very moody. Nice job!
May 1 08:28:51 10h 01m Precious is Life ♥ 2 Nice drawings and concept. The turn based stuff is a bit simple, but I can see the theme in use which is nice!
May 1 08:38:51 10m 00s Cowry - A game about change ♥ 1 Such a nice little game!
May 1 08:53:12 14m 21s Grim Adventures ♥ 1 Very nice game, and the mechanics are great. Unfortunately the controls and the camera makes the whole thing really-really difficult and kinda frustrating, since judging a jump is kinda hard. I really liked the whole Firelink Shrine level design and the fact that the doors are the bosses. I really liked what the doors had inside them, it's certainly a great fit for the theme! Sadly, I just could get passed a narrow area, I kept falling down.
May 1 09:05:20 12m 08s U Wouldn't Shoot a Ship ♥ 1 really fun music and solid gameplay. My only grip is that the ship is a bit hard to control. The updates add a lot and the varying enemies are cool. Nice job!
May 1 15:17:49 6h 12m Styx It To The Man ♥ 1 Very nice quality of assets! Overall great job! Controls are nice and smooth, updates are clear and easy to understand, everything works great, no bugs or glitches. My only gripe is that avoiding dead bodies is nearly impossible, since I could hardly control my ship that fast, I usually just pushed through them, without any thought about what route to take. This made the gameplay a touch too simple. Nevertheless great job with the assets and effects!
May 2 17:26:03 26h 08m Hot Slots: All In ♥ 1 Reached Room 17 on my third try! That was the furthest I have gotten. I figured having three life points at all times was the best method for a long time. Nice job with the aesthetics and the music. The mood was certainly there! The upgrades didn't feel that meaningful, probably due to the limited number of enemies. Nice and sweet! Great at showing how people might get sucked into casino games.
May 2 17:30:01 3m 58s And Then There Was One ♥ 1 Oh my... This needs a lot more tutorializing, I had no idea what was even happening or what I am controlling or what my goal was. Even understanding your comment is a bit difficult, maybe it's just me. I really like the art style you went with though!
May 2 17:35:17 5m 16s Coin Puzzles ♥ 0 Fun take on the theme! Really interesting concept and you expanded it nicely! Maybe a button for dropping coins would be nice, but otherwise I managed to get pretty far. Nice job!
May 2 18:11:36 36m 19s The Steep Price Paid in Grey Dale ♥ 4 Interesting take on the theme, perhaps this game has the most tension out of all other games I've tried. I don't think I figured out the entire story just now, but it was certainly really intriguing. Just like Annie, my only complaint is about whose lines do I actually choose, although at this point I am not entirely clear whether we are talking about separate characters, so this confusion might have been intentional. Nevertheless, it made the intro a bit confusing. The atmosphere was quite great and nature of the gameplay was enough to make it feel engaging. Overall, well done, this game is really unique!
May 2 18:16:07 4m 31s The Giving Thing ♥ 1 Finally an interesting take on the theme! The graphics weren't my cup of tea, but the story was quite great! Good job!
May 2 18:34:29 18m 22s Sinking Town ♥ 2 Really nice visuals and aesthetics! ...and the gameplay is quite intriguing too. Unfortunately, after a bunch of trading I still wasn't sure what my goal was, or what I was supposed to do. Perhaps the cool graphics hid some important story information from me, like they hid the textboxes of some of the conversations. I really liked how talking to different people changed with different devices and after different trades. The story was slowly unfolding, but at some point I got stuck, and couldn't figure out how to proceed. This is when the amazing art style kinda became a detriment, since jumping and navigating around was quite difficult. I am kinda torn, because of this.
May 2 19:58:51 1h 24m King's Alchemist ♥ 2 Great visuals and soothing music! Simple and easy gameplay, but I don't see the connection with the theme.
May 2 20:23:15 24m 24s The Walking Sim ♥ 5 I lost The Game!
May 2 21:53:33 1h 30m Knit Worth ♥ 3 Well, this was a blast!!! Really fun and smooth experience.
May 2 22:05:41 12m 08s Slime Sweeper ♥ 1 This kind of time mechanic is quite interesting! Great job with the level variety. Although I am not sure all of them are solvable.:D Great job, overall, maybe a bit of music or sfx could improve the game.
May 2 22:10:31 4m 50s Unpredictable dungeon ♥ 1 I am not sure how the game is connected to the theme. Nice job, overall. Enemies are distinct, which is nice. However the weapon sometimes jams, so I can't shoot.
May 2 22:13:01 2m 30s CoinQuest ♥ 1 I am stuck on the first level. How do I get past? Nice animations and graphics btw.
May 2 22:27:23 14m 22s Earth External Station 4 ♥ 0 It seems like I am stuck too, after the first contact, I get the same pirate ship over and over again. Unfortunately, I also have to criticize the story. So humanity has not mastered warp travel, but they traveled to a different solar system within a really short amount of time? How could 100 individuals possibly start a colony. The genetic diversity is not nearly wide enough. The aliens didn't want to initiate contact due moral obligations, but they did anyway, because of what? I really liked that I could play as myself and even the exploration aspect was cool!.
May 2 22:32:13 4m 50s Game Name Here ♥ 0 Fun little game, but needs more levels!
May 3 08:21:02 9h 48m GunAntrophist ♥ 0 I think the concept might have been interesting, but as it is now, I don't see a connection with the theme. Also picking up money from the same player over and over again and just shooting it feels a bit too simple. Nice job with the graphics though!
May 3 20:34:04 12h 13m Bob the Zombie ♥ 1 Pretty nice and polished game! Well done! I especially liked the sound effects and the various screams! My only complaint is, that there aren't enough civilians, or there aren't enough variation of civilians. Otherwise great job! This was one of the few games that actually made me laugh!
May 3 20:43:41 9m 37s Journey of the Homunculus ♥ 0 Overall, really fun game! Even the theme usage was great, and it was a lot more challenging than I though it would be! Great job. With better graphics this might as well be a cool hacking mini game in a AAA title. It's a bit unforgiving, a few checkpoints would have been really nice!
May 3 20:49:02 5m 21s Alien SMASH ♥ 0 Great game! Love the death animations of aliens! The gameplay loop is pretty solid too, well done. Perhaps there could be a way to regain some health and I think an attack animation for the dogs would be nice! Grat variety of enemies, so no complaints there!
May 3 20:57:54 8m 52s Who Wants to Be a Vampire's Heir? ♥ 0 Very funny stuff! Great job!
May 3 21:03:42 5m 48s Life v Undead ♥ 0 I quite like this idea, it's certainly a fun take on the theme! Unfortunately for some reason, the game won't respond to my mouse, and I can't rotate the camera.
May 3 21:07:57 4m 15s Shield Mates ♥ 0 Yeah, keyboard controls are not very good and this kinda ruins the experience. The shooting does feel powerful and the sounds are cool, but the controls are hard.
May 3 21:30:44 22m 47s BloodThirst ♥ 1 Fun game! The gameplay loop is pretty solid and farming is an easy solution to most problems. Perhaps the dash is a bit overpowered.
May 3 21:41:19 10m 35s Return of the Roguelike ♥ 1 Nice entry, I am a fan of the genre, and this was a pretty polished experience! The mechanic is implemented well, and it's pretty hard frankly. It would be nice to have better telegraphs of the attack, so I could raise my shield at the right time, even though it doesn't seem to do much. I never got really far, even though I dig the art style!
May 3 21:50:26 9m 07s Dissuasion ♥ 1 Nice worldbuilding and concept, but I found the gameplay to be overly confusing. I was not entirely what I was meant to do, and the messages were just a bit too fast, by the time I grasped the idea.
May 4 09:35:53 11h 45m Welcome to the Underworld™ ♥ 1 Really fun take on the theme! The texts were really funny, however the game does get a bit aimless. Meaning, I wasn't sure, how I could improve my status. Nevertheless, nice job!
May 4 09:39:42 3m 49s LifeCurrency ♥ 1 Can you add a tutorial or something, because I have no idea how to play this? the buttons don't seem to be working, since I don't have a cursor to click on them.
May 4 09:45:28 5m 46s Your Life Is NOT Worthless ♥ 0 Interesting take on the theme. I would love to have a choice in this game somewhere, other wise it feels a bit like a sightseeing tour. Nice job, the monologues very certainly interesting somewhat, even if I am not sure about the ending.
May 4 09:46:10 42s 6161 ♥ 0 no links
May 4 09:51:43 5m 33s Almost-Dead ♥ 1 Yeah, I have to agree, the knife barely does any damage, and my strategy was basically just getting my health low and staying away from the fight. Maybe there should an incentive to engage in combat. Also, this is basically single player battle royale:D
May 4 09:53:45 2m 02s Hobo Bobo ♥ 0 Doesn't seem to work. Can't click on menu buttons.
May 4 09:57:14 3m 29s Stick Dungeon ♥ 2 The weapon feels to useless, and the combat is too frustrating to be enjoyable. I am not even sure about how the various health pools contribute to gameplay, they seem to do the same thing.
May 4 09:59:47 2m 33s Streets of Gold ♥ 1 Maybe a tutorial would be nice, I don't know what is happening and why:)
May 4 10:04:52 5m 05s Refuel ♥ 0 Wow, this was surprisingly difficult, I could barely survive for longer than a few seconds.
May 4 10:09:04 4m 12s Trial 763 ♥ 0 I like the concept here, bu the execution lacks depth, and is too difficult. It would have been nice, if the gun actually destroyed or disabled turrets so we could plan ahead. As it is now, it's just running past them.
May 4 10:23:32 14m 28s With All My Heart ♥ 2 Really fun game! It's even balanced fairly well and requires a bit of thinking! Well done.
May 4 10:26:30 2m 58s Spacelife ♥ 0 no link
May 4 10:29:40 3m 10s Coins for the Ferrier ♥ 0 Indeed, very moody!
May 4 10:32:32 2m 52s Lifeblood ♥ 4 Holy hell, the visuals are amazing! The gameplay is a hit or miss with me, but the mood kept me playing, since it was so good. Really nice entry!
