Oct 8 02:46:32 Cast Away ♥ 2 Well done! I enjoyed how nicely this was executed overall. Would've fit the "night is coming" theme as well.
Oct 8 02:51:38 5m 06s Pinbuilder ♥ 0 I liked what you were going for! Definitely follows the theme strongly. I think with more time, a polished version of this concept would be neat.
Oct 8 02:57:22 5m 44s Erasure ♥ 1 The game window stretches taller than my 1080p monitor, so I didn't notice the UI listed at the top until I scrolled up. Was a bit confusing up until that point. 😅 Once I figured out what was going on, I found it interesting! It seemed like some of my jumps weren't working though.
Oct 8 03:09:39 12m 17s Osage ♥ 4 Cute art! I liked the parallaxed hills.
Oct 8 03:17:04 7m 25s Catachresis ♥ 1 I'm really impressed at the art!
Oct 8 03:24:58 7m 54s JOURNEY TO NOWHERE ♥ 1 Hahaha, the ending hit close to home! Funny and thematic. The choice/storytelling concept vaguely reminded me of The Yawhg.
Oct 8 03:37:25 12m 27s Singularity ♥ 1 Wow, I enjoyed this a lot! Really unique and the puzzles are interesting to think about.
Oct 8 03:47:18 9m 53s Peak Performance ♥ 2 Once I grasped how to play the game, I thought it was very unique and interesting! I think an inclusion of some more UI would help new players.
Oct 8 03:57:18 10m 00s More Decor ♥ 1 I enjoyed solving this puzzle! Great work, and for some reason, I now feel like rearranging my living room.
Oct 8 04:13:35 16m 17s Chasing Light ♥ 3 Love the art style! Great job, and congrats on your first LD!! 👍
Oct 8 04:22:22 8m 47s When Nothing Came ♥ 3 Really awesome art style! The narrative fits the theme well. I enjoyed the time-rewinding concept as well.
Oct 8 04:29:24 7m 02s Sneeter ♥ 1 "I'm shoving shrimps in my vegans." This game was hilarious! Loved the concept and art. Fits this theme and also reminds me thematically of LD41's "two incompatible genres" theme.
Oct 8 04:48:28 19m 04s Soundscapes ♥ 2 Creative take on the theme! There was nothing preventing me from spam clicking to beat levels 😄 but the challenge of finding sounds was enjoyable.
Oct 8 07:05:00 2h 16m Tiny Reactor ♥ 1 Cool concept! I enjoyed thinking about the different ways to rack up more points, but it got pretty difficult 😅
Oct 8 07:17:56 12m 56s Seedling ♥ 1 I liked the art! Seems like a chill clicky game that would do nicely with some relaxing music.
Oct 8 07:25:49 7m 53s Sand&Sea ♥ 3 Nice job! I thought the ocean wave sfx was a bit loud compared to the bg music.
Oct 8 07:40:27 14m 38s Ashes to Ash ♥ 2 Great job! I greatly enjoyed the dialogue and music. The instructions for vine climbing state "W/A", but I'm sure you guys meant "W/S". The jumping felt a bit strange, but other than some small stuff, I was impressed!
Oct 8 08:02:09 21m 42s HEI$T ♥ 2 Went AFK on auto-heist after buying 9 of the most expensive crew members. Came back to having over a billion dollars. I liked the character animations! The mouse cursor seemed to be a bit imprecise. Overall, great job!
Oct 8 08:18:55 16m 46s Survivor Slots ♥ 1 Great job! I enjoyed thinking about the different possibilities I could spent my action points on.
Oct 8 08:25:37 6m 42s Trashquest ♥ 1 I loved the art and enjoyed trying to figure out the best way to swing weapons around. There was an instance where I tunneled through the ground and got stuck underneath, but other than that, great job!
Oct 9 01:30:05 17h 04m Mall-icious Intent ♥ 0 Nice work! I enjoyed the art particularly.
Oct 9 01:35:03 4m 58s Tardigrades on the Moon ♥ 0 I enjoyed the concept! Zooming out seems a bit buggy, as the screen suddenly turned black. Perhaps adding a clamp to the camera's position would fix this. Nice work overall!
Oct 9 01:43:19 8m 16s InkTent ♥ 2 I liked the creative take on platforming! Nice work!
Oct 9 20:57:39 19h 14m High Steaks ♥ 2 Cute game! I especially enjoyed the music. I'm also just a sucker for PICO-8's color scheme. Not being able to move with WASD was a bit awkward though (felt like I needed three hands for Z, X, arrow keys, and also mouse). Nice work!
Oct 9 21:21:39 24m 00s Eden ♥ 2 This game is so wholesome... up until someone brutally axes down their lover in front of their newborn. I enjoyed the plant growing animations a lot. The "love" noises were... interesting haha. Great work!
Oct 9 21:26:55 5m 16s Water ♥ 2 Cute game! I wish the characters moved a bit faster. There also seems to be a bug where if jump and hold TAB, the character keeps flying.
Oct 9 22:09:39 42m 44s FUTHARK ♥ 0 Nice work! I like the low-poly aesthetic. The narration made me laugh, and I had fun destroying objects with lightning.
Oct 9 23:22:54 1h 13m Awoken ♥ 0 Nice work! I really liked the art. I think some basic shooting sfx would've gone a long way for adding some polish, and a dash mechanic (or something or the sort) would've helped the pacing a bit.
Oct 9 23:46:47 23m 53s Locked ♥ 1 Hahaha these sound effects are great! Short and creative. Great job!
Oct 9 23:55:45 8m 58s Void Prisoner ♥ 1 Nice work! I enjoyed the unique concept. It would've been nice to have some pathfinding, so my character wouldn't run into the wall when I clicked across the wall, but that's understandable given the time constraint.
Oct 10 02:12:05 2h 16m Allow ♥ 1 Nice work! The lack of air drag took some adjusting to, but the platforming felt polished overall.
Oct 10 02:24:32 12m 27s Winter Survival ♥ 1 Nice work! I definitely felt lost, which was clearly what you were hoping the player to experience. At times, this feeling was enjoyable (challenge of needing to stay oriented to the fire), but at other times I would just get completely disoriented to where I would always die from lack of warmth. I didn't realize that berries regrew on bushes so quickly, so I kept thinking I was visiting new areas every time I saw berries - hence me getting lost.
Oct 10 02:32:31 7m 59s Cell ♥ 1 Great work, and congrats on your group's first LD submission! I really liked how new music layers were introduced as new mechanics were introduced. It allowed for a nice, cohesive sense of progression. The platforming was pretty difficult at first, but I enjoyed it altogether.
Oct 10 02:38:32 6m 01s Junk Racer XL ♥ 0 Great job! I had quite a lot of fun ramping off the grass. The camera didn't seem to take reversing too kindly. The hitbox for collecting orbs was also quite unforgiving. Other than those small points, I enjoyed this immensely!
Oct 10 23:44:24 21h 05m Palely ♥ 2 Oh my goodness, this is absolutely amazing! I knew an @anstabo game would come correct with the shaders, and I'm glad I wasn't the least bit disappointed. This also seems like a great educational resource for kids to learn words in an engaging manner. Keep up the great dev work guys! *By the way, I wonder who hid the poop in between the haybales?* 😄
