Apr 23 13:31:36 Gumball ♥ 1 I like it! Took a while to get any good at this but I kept getting better! πŸ’ͺ Lots of tension sometimes when you're scrambling to get the tile you want or walk off a ledge. 😱 Cute graphics as always and nice music that fits the walk cycle~
Apr 23 14:10:47 39m 11s GhostVac ♥ 3 That was so good! πŸ’œ First Wobble Jump and now this. Does a game like this exist physically IRL or did you come up with the whole thing? Presentation is incredibly CUTE with the little faces on the screen. And genuinely feels like an arcade machine (love that reflection, like Le Slo said!)! At least for me it's got the difficulty to boot as wellβ€”the boss was *tough*! Loved the sounds too but unfortunately some of them were a bit too shrill for my ears to cope with, sorry about that. πŸ˜… LOVED IT. πŸ’œπŸ’œ (also I spent way too long figuring out εΉ½ιœŠι€€ζ²» πŸ‘»)
Apr 25 21:49:44 55h 38m Knyttskogen ♥ 1 Sniff-sniff! Looks like we had basically the same idea. 🀩 Of course you managed to add what I did not end up having time for: visitors! πŸ’œ Ended up not doing anything to the side but just focussing on this and having a nice moment with the cosy audio and an interest in seeing who the next one to come by would be. Very nice and relaxing~Β  Some serious Moomin vibes, especially given the name and the ghostly figure showing up by the fire! 😍 Makes the cute pencil art a very good fit. Audio is obviously important here and it was great. Love the animal sounds! My only complaint would be the silence between every loop of the fire clip. Also I was getting increasingly *stoked* (pun not intended but I'm rolling with it!) to see if anything would happen once the fire reached full intensity but I guess the answer is no? c: Lovely forest excursion! πŸ”₯ Snurf!
May 11 16:57:00 379h 07m Space Ship E.V.E ♥ 1 I like it but I'm not able to finish it. 😭 I feel like I either broke the game or am missing something. Ship started getting bombarded after I befriended the dog and it just never moved on from there, kept going forever. The text box that had given me objectives before that was gone so I didn't know what to do. Also had no chance of keeping up with the pace the objects kept peppering me at. 😒 The scrolling thing made it hard to hit them too. But of course as usual I love your art style and the sounds were very nice and the music helped set a nice and moody atmosphere. πŸ’œ
May 11 17:04:56 7m 56s Our World ♥ 1 Dino is so cute, especially when sleeping! πŸ’œ Can't say much more that hasn't already been expressed by previous commenters, but yeah, some sound and more to do would have been nice, but it's always hard to fit everything into a jam game. I like it!
May 11 17:20:20 15m 24s The Acolyte ♥ 1 Those screams are horrifying! Felt so bad about what I was doing but I had to see it through to see if more story would be revealed and wow, what a cutscene! Very well animated. Good graphics and audio, just a bit of a chore doing the same thing so many times over and quite easy with the HP increasing all the time haha πŸ˜… Good work!
May 11 17:25:51 5m 31s Untitled Sport Game ♥ 1 Lots of fun for two player but the AI is just too darn perfect for single player haha, I don't have those reflexes. 🀯 Feels and sounds good! Nicely done!
May 11 17:40:39 14m 48s TITAN, OPSND ♥ 2 This is just amazing. One of the coolest LD games I have ever seen! Ticks so many sweaty little nerd boxes and sets such a cool atmosphere. The PDF manual is amazing. And the framing of a language that had to be thrown together in three days is hilarious. πŸ’œ Would be super interesting to know what sort of feedback you've gotten from people who don't have any programming experience at all. But it's an incredibly cool niche game for those who do. I love rovers, I love the periodic Γ¦sthetic, just aaaahhhh. HIGH SCORE FROM ME! 😭
May 11 18:22:56 42m 17s Soul Seed ♥ 0 The graphics are so cute! πŸ’œ I do feel horrible feeding those poor creatures to the tree, but otherwise a very relaxing game, especially with the lovely music. 😭 Good growl sounds for the tree and the platforming felt good! Nice work!
May 11 18:28:46 5m 50s Unsplashed ♥ 1 Cute ducky! πŸ’œ Love the look of the water, too. Someone said the rules were a bit confusing and inconsistent-feeling and I agree, but maybe I just missed something? I love puzzles anyhow, and having an enemy on the board to also worry about is something I don't see in a lot of games like this, so that was very cool. It's too bad you didn't have time for audio, but game jams are game jams! πŸ˜… Cool game!
May 11 19:23:43 54m 57s Lively ♥ 1 Kitty! πŸ’œ I remember you from last time around, chatting in Marc's stream and playing your game! Cool to see you this time too. c: Pity you weren't able to get it to where you wanted but you still modelled up an adorable cat with lovely animations. 😻 Best of luck next time!
May 12 17:03:39 21h 39m Keeping Your Fire Alive ♥ 1 Hey, sorry for taking so long to play and rate, but I finally got around to it! πŸ˜… The HDRP wasn't working on the ageing Windows 7 laptop I tried to play on so I had to go on a moderner machine~ Great mood! πŸ’œ I had never heard of the story you based this on before so I had no idea what I was in for. So the world is written in C#, eh? Who'd have thought? πŸ€” Audio and graphics work very well together, with the growling before you see those eyes, altho unfortunately I'd already seen the eyes in the screenshot so they didn't end up shocking me quite as much as perhaps they could have haha I do wish I'd been able to progress the text at my own pace. Sometimes it was very slow, especially in between lines, but sometimes so much text would pass by so quickly that the box would scroll before I'd finished reading the first line and missed some words. 😒 Nice work! Looking forward to seeing what you do next time!
May 12 17:55:28 51m 49s Back Four Seconds ♥ 1 Love me some time travel! πŸ’œ Great mechanic and good work on the story with the voiceover and all! Wish I could turn the head bob off tho. πŸ˜… The subtle mockery of the hair bow tendency was great. Very cool game!
May 12 18:16:20 20m 52s Cheat Or Die ♥ 1 So good! πŸ’œ Awe-struck at how much art and animations you were able to do in such a short time, including all those variations of the screen when someone gets caught! If that game over screen isn't the scariest thing ever… 😭 Such a fun concept that I haven't really seen in LD before and the gameplay is very intuitive and you're constantly on guard! Was slightly tricky to determine whether the teacher would be able to see you sometimes but looking around and perhaps getting an exclamation mark from the teacher before actually trying to pass the note helped a lot. Loved it!
May 12 18:20:48 4m 28s Sleepyhead ♥ 2 That was great! The night scene is really pretty, can almost feel that chill in the air! πŸ’™ The music is very fitting and overall it somehow managed to feel very relaxing despite the stressfulness of trying to keep the sleepwalker alive. πŸ˜… Great work!
May 12 18:33:53 13m 05s Aqua Vitae ♥ 2 Amazing! πŸ‘€ I don't drink, but I still saw this and thought it looked incredibly unique and atmospheric, so I had to give it a try! Unfortunately was a bit too heavy for my poor laptop, but I got a taste of it! Happened to have watched a video just days ago on how distillation works, so I did know what the coils and everything was for haha. I expected a really moody ambient soundtrack from the screenshots, so the happy radio music caught me of guard! ВСбя люблююююю~ 🎡 You did a great job setting the mood with this and creating something unusual. Very cool! Looks and sounds very good. πŸ’œ
May 12 18:43:56 10m 03s Keep a Plant ♥ 1 Cutest little sprout ever! πŸ’šπŸŒ± Simple game but very effective with lots of personality from the adorable graphics and the dancing animation to the nice music and good choice of audio. A bunch of impacts could easily get very grating, but you chose quite a nice and muffled sound that's easy on the ears. Appreciate not having to click to fend the meteorites off. Feels relaxing and not at the same time, in a good way. Nice work!
May 12 19:19:17 35m 21s ANICTO ♥ 3 Very cool! Sets up a real mood with the intro and the setting. Gameplay worked very well once I figured it out, just got stuck between trees sometimes. Fire is very pretty. The big light in the sky went out sometimesβ€”is that a bug or am I only supposed to be allowed to see it periodically? Was a bit disorienting. Overall I liked this a lot, great work! πŸ’œπŸš€
May 12 19:44:53 25m 36s The Land I Live On ♥ 1 That was a really sweet experience! πŸ’œ It did get a little tedious and repetitive toward the end but I still really enjoyed the gameplay. Controls could have been a bit better but the free air control saved it. πŸ’ͺ Getting lots of great nostalgic vibes from this. Love the concept and the execution! The intro and outro graphics are an especially nice touch with the particular 2D art and animations, really good job! The water gushing mechanic was really well done, super cool!! Great work!
May 12 19:52:34 7m 41s Dr. Statnil's Dodo Egg ♥ 1 Cute dodos! πŸ’œ You say "equivalent of an asset flip", but did you make the graphics? Despite what you say, I thought the coding was pretty well done, getting both local multiplayer and an actual computer player in there is pretty good for a jam! The hilarious framing and the intro story add a lot to it as well. πŸ€“
May 12 19:58:20 5m 46s Dimmer ♥ 1 Great puzzle platformer! πŸ’œ I like the chunky pixels and the audio. Ramps up well as these games should with the new mechanics and so on. Controls feel very good. The added element of the battery is a great addition to this kind of game! Feels overall very polished and complete with the little screens between levels, the reset button and so on. Solid game! πŸ’ͺ
