Oct 9 05:41:30		VII	♥ 1	Nice game, I like the puzzles and the music. I think this game could have benefited from the use of a tile-sprite system, as some of the elements didn't really line up properly. Mechanics wise, I loved it! It only took a couple of deaths to figure out the mechanics and adapt play style accordingly. Great game!
Oct 9 05:46:20	4m 50s	Ball of Duty: Special Drops	♥ 2	I love this game. It sort of redefines the goal of a pachinko machine. There's something very satisfying about the way the money counter goes up with all the balls bouncing everywhere. Art style is great, especially how you can upgrade them with trails and new textures. Great game!
Oct 9 06:30:51	44m 31s	Unlock Hero	♥ 2	Great game! My main issue is with how the controls interact with the platforming. I think that either the platforms should be designed so that the player can jump upward through them, or the player should lose their y velocity when they hit the platform. Fighting was a bit difficult, as I often felt that I had to be hit in order to hit, but I understand that might just be down to experience with the game. Maybe a little bit higher knockback? Other than that, the progression felt great and I liked the way the graphics started upgrading.
Oct 9 06:42:13	11m 22s	King Conga	♥ 1	Nice comedic game! I could see this doing well on a mobile store if it were polished up a little bit. In the WebGL version there seems to be a bug where the esc key causes the game to crash.
Oct 9 06:56:58	14m 45s	BoBoBot	♥ 1	Very nice game, I liked the puzzles, they weren't too hard, but still took a couple of attempts to figure out the mechanics. The graphics are great. I did have a bit of trouble with the part where you have to drop down onto the conveyor belts, as the green belts are kind of hard to see against the background. The music was amazing and audio really fit with the game's feel.
Oct 9 07:20:59	24m 01s	Draconomics	♥ 2	I love this take on tower defense. You have to build towers for the "enemy" in order to win the game. Very well polished.
Oct 9 07:36:18	15m 19s	God of the Elements	♥ 2	I enjoyed this game, has a feel much like Little Alchemy, but you need the sectors to produce elements to be able to use them. Something that might help the game is having a counter that shows discovered elements, as I didn't know how much there was left to discover.
Oct 9 13:12:53	5h 36m	Rekindling Of Iron	♥ 2	This game is pretty good! A few quality of life changes I would make are: - I found that in order to attack, you had to double click. I'm not sure if that's a bug on my end or in the game, but it's probably worth looking into (edit: just saw the note in the original post) - the attack animation shouldn't deal damage after the "swing" portion - dodge-rolling negates damage (though this would affect game balance) - after you burn down the vines, they should probably not grow back after every death, or have a faster burning animation - there were a few misaligned game objects like the torch vs the flame of the torch - the red crystal launchy thing's projectiles could use a bit more visibility (maybe a light source from each crystal) - maybe have a raycast to detect if there is a piece of terrain between the player and the camera, and if so, reduce its opacity I really did like how the puzzles were laid out. They were difficult, but achievable. The level design and atmosphere were great, and I could clearly tell where the next objective would be. Although you didn't make the artwork, you did choose a very nice style for the game and stuck with it, producing a beautiful atmosphere. Overall, considering the short amount of time I think you did an excellent job.
Oct 9 14:00:24	47m 31s	Little Guardian	♥ 2	This is probably the most polished game I've seen in this jam. The style is great, the puzzles of defeating the ships were well executed, and level design is beautiful. As @morrilet said, shooting grounded enemies was a pretty big struggle, but other than that the game felt absolutely amazing.
Oct 9 14:18:02	17m 38s	Absorb	♥ 2	There are a few games in this jam that I wish were longer, and yours is definitely near the top of that list!
Oct 10 10:08:05	19h 50m	Trelet ~ The Land of Words	♥ 1	I enjoyed this game a lot. The simple, yet well executed art style is visually pleasing, and the game mechanics are a very interesting take on scrabble. The punishments for small mistakes is a bit much, but I see that you've already responded to that issue elsewhere. Great game!
