| Apr 20 19:41:54 | Battery Panic | ♥ 2 | If you had made this 6 years ago I'd play this 2 hours a day on the train while commuting to work ! This... is ... GOOD ! Would you consider a mobile version? The premise seems a bit complex at first, but ones you get the intention, it's a little nugget of gold :) | |
| Apr 20 20:09:43 | 27m 49s | Silly Fluffy Bunny | ♥ 1 | Very nice game ! And impressive line mechanics, I really liked that. For me the game was just long enough to not go passed the point of "this is turning boring". Well done ! |
| Apr 20 20:17:22 | 7m 39s | DungeonScape | ♥ 1 | This game reminds me of the win95 classics ! Very well done, heaps of fun. The death sound of your fellow dungeoneers is really giving me flashbacks like the food critic in the Ratatouille movie ! |
| Apr 20 22:30:46 | 2h 13m | Theft of the Inferno Heart | ♥ 0 | Nice one ! I tend to dislike escort mission but this game feels very satisfying :) |
| Apr 20 22:45:02 | 14m 16s | VURM | ♥ 2 | I liked this :) Simplistic , almost Vector-graphics era like. Interesting concept ! |
| Apr 21 10:37:15 | 11h 52m | Eggcelerate | ♥ 1 | Great take on the theme, I loved the audio and the laughs. This game is great fun, I hope you would consider making it a full game. Imagine this as a multiplayer... Instant hit :D |
| Apr 22 07:43:57 | 21h 06m | Bustion Defender | ♥ 1 | I am a sucker for old school NES games. This game brings that notion in my head, it's tiny things like the explosion effects, the immobile tank... Well done ! I do agree a tutorial might be a nice idea, maybe you can write a nice one using Markdown, the game's LD page is quite empty ^-^ |
| Apr 22 07:47:43 | 3m 46s | Cupid's Arrow Inc. Difficult Cases Division | ♥ 1 | I like the concept and it is well executed, especially in the context of a jamp. I would love to have seen a little bit more card variation, spice it up. I enjoyed it ! Well done . |
| Apr 22 07:51:53 | 4m 10s | Robo Riot | ♥ 1 | I like how you turned this simple concept into a full fledged addiction! Sure it has some quirks and glitches, but for a game jam game this is far beyond acceptable! I'd love to see this turn into a mobile game ! |
| Apr 22 07:55:40 | 3m 47s | Flight of the Cepheus | ♥ 1 | This takes me back to that little old gray computer... with a huge fish-tank of a monitor on top running win 95. Trying to find something fun to do on these old school "CD's " with games and demo's. Just like back then I enjoy these strategy games ! The intricacies are worth while, but it might be just me... In other words, I can't say if this game is just my niche, but that won't matter for the ratings I'll give you ;) Thanks for making this ! |
| Apr 22 08:04:08 | 8m 28s | Koita and the Elder Relics | ♥ 2 | I love the style, however the color palettes are not the easiest on the eye (especially the green and yellow one, as shown in a screenshot I believe on the game page). I would also suggest you spice up this page a bit, it should be a billboard but the only thing I see is a mixture of credits and a dev log. Now that aside ! The chiptune is amazing and the storytelling gave me a giggle or two! Well done :) |
| Apr 22 08:10:37 | 6m 29s | Game of Beans | ♥ 2 | This game is hilarious :) Keep the Sean Bean meme alive ! I have to agree, it wasn't really clear to me that I could Sean-slap the fire to put it out. ONE thing I would suggest, don't just despawn the arrows, leave them in Sean's body for a bit, it'd look hilarious :) Well done ! |
| Apr 22 08:15:04 | 4m 27s | Giant Blobs From Mars | ♥ 1 | I like this game a lot. The audio is really nice and the visuals are very appealing, they might fit a mobile game actually. The ramping of difficulty is mentioned in the comments often and I tend to agree, however I think you can easily solve this by turning the first couple of levels into tutorial material. OBVIOUSLY this is a jam game, so nobody should judge based on that. One thing that might be really cool, but not in the scope of a jam as well, make the blob into one supermesh...A giant blob to rule them... make it really grow ! Great stuff :) |
| Apr 22 08:16:44 | 1m 40s | Leaning plates | ♥ 1 | Very nice and simple! Clean execution ^^ As said above, the details are a nice touch. |
| Apr 22 08:25:41 | 8m 57s | Welcome to Pre-Sushi | ♥ 0 | WebGL builds in Unity are always a messy steaming pile of trouble. It's among the reasons as to why I didn't put one up for my game (it turned all lighting red for god knows what reason). Either way, I watched you work on the job system and it is very interesting indeed ! Useful to learn. I wonder how far you could push this using a compute shader for the fishes, similar to what Sebastian Lague did in his "boids" video. Well done :) |
| Apr 22 11:37:22 | 3h 11m | The Last Primpy | ♥ 0 | Great game! I really liked the game but the difficulty ramps up pretty slowly. The aesthetics and ambiance more than make up for that though. This feels like a classic ^-^ Very nicely done. However... my favorite part? The audio... it is SPOT on my friend ! Well done! ... Where can I order a Primpy for Christmas? |
| Apr 22 11:39:15 | 1m 53s | Unnamed Balloon Game: Video Game Edition | ♥ 1 | Cool game ! Now I have to go find balloons because my kid saw this and wants to play it "in real life". Great job. Voice acting is brave, it's a weird mix between the concept and the scary voice, but it seems to work just fine. Well done, thanks for making this ! :) Welcome to the LD Family ! |
| Apr 22 13:29:12 | 1h 49m | Keep Me Breathing | ♥ 2 | I like the concept ! Very crisp graphics. Gameplay wise it seems a bit strict at some points (for example when adjusting the sliders), but then again that creates the "panicky" feel ! Awesome ^-^ Well done, thank you |
| Apr 22 13:35:30 | 6m 18s | Looking for Group | ♥ 2 | Very nice game ! This game reminds me of some of those old flash based online games we had back in the mid 2000's. Very enjoyable, nice artwork and very fitting audio. One UI related comment I have is that it's very hard on the brain to read numbers everywhere. Maybe a visual indicator (for example a healthbar) could be better? Either way, thank you for making this ! |
| Apr 22 13:59:33 | 24m 03s | JarHeads | ♥ 1 | This game is really nicely made and snappy! Very addictive and the scoreboard surely is a nice competitive touch ! I personally got 7th at some point but I'll bookmark this one for sure. One minor issue I had was with the audio, I had to toggle "music" on and off for the soundtrack to play. Glad I figured this out because it is amazing. Well done and thank you for developing this ! |
| Apr 22 16:26:39 | 2h 27m | Lich Clicker | ♥ 2 | I have a few issues with the webGL build but it seems the standalone version didn't have that. A great storytelling combined with captivating audio. Well done, a complex take on a simple principle ! |
| Apr 22 16:30:03 | 3m 24s | My Pet's Dungeon | ♥ 1 | This reminds me of Digimon World, another nostalgia-buster in my collection. Very well done, to me it feels a bit like a combat tamagotchi ! :) Kudos, thank you for making this |
| Apr 22 16:41:42 | 11m 39s | Eternal Flame | ♥ 0 | I honestly expected a lot more "Olympic flame" type of games, but this is the first one I see around. Glad I was able to play it, feels a little bit clunky but I have that feeling with most pico-8 games. The camera movement is a bit janky but it didn't bother me too much personally. Well done ! Thank you for making this |
| Apr 22 17:33:27 | 51m 45s | Test-a-ball | ♥ 1 | We were just playing your game, it's a bit unclear as to what the intention is, maybe you could have the platforms rotate seperatly so it becomes more likely to be able to get higher up. Also audio would help out ! WE LOVE THE BLOBBY GRAPHICS THOUGH !!!! |
| Apr 22 17:40:56 | 7m 29s | Sprouting Tale (LD46) | ♥ 1 | Thank you for making a nice game ! We enjoyed it , also I really don't like snails so this was fun to do. Great innovation by coming up with a nice mechanic to make a platformer way more challenging. Well done ! |
| Apr 22 17:52:50 | 11m 54s | Guardian of the Seas | ♥ 1 | This is a fun clicker game, thank you for making it. One slight remark though, maybe it would be a bit easier to not have to mix up keyboard and mouse. When you are clicking on screen anyway to move your boat, it might as well be using the mouse to open up menu's by clicking on the docks for example ! Well done ! |
| Apr 22 17:59:04 | 6m 14s | The Dragonsitter | ♥ 4 | Nice game, we liked the looks of it. Maybe the dragon would be better off being purple, so it stands out more from the environment. Other than that, the WEBGL build seems to lag a bit, so you might want to consider uploading the standalone version! Also, I don't know why this happened, but our spacebar was not working to feed apples to the dragon. Still, I liked the audio and atmosphere, Great Job ! |
| Apr 22 18:09:18 | 10m 14s | Bioternity | ♥ 3 | An ecosystem simulation game is quite challenging to get just right. This is a very fair attempt to do so, but it might need a little extra work (for example a tutorial, other ecosystems etc). I loved the background music, but there are some game design issues that were "annoying" . For example, there is no way to cleanly exit the game and it is forced full screen. Also some buttons have unclear reprocussions, the "rain" button has no "off" switch, which could be confusing. Overall very interesting ! AND beautiful ! |
| Apr 22 18:17:27 | 8m 09s | Outta Juize | ♥ 1 | We really liked this game. It is very fast paced however and the movement takes some getting used to! Personally I would prefer if the thruster could be controlled by the right mouse button for example. Other than that it has a really arcade-like feel to it and the added strategic effect of having to recharger your battery decoupled from the ship is a very nice feature. Well done and thank you for making this ! |
| Apr 22 18:31:28 | 14m 01s | SMT V final Boss leak | ♥ 2 | Can you actually defeat the boss? Has anyone managed to kill their tank ? Just asking for a friend ! Thank you for making this :) |
| Apr 22 18:48:33 | 17m 05s | Bunnurse | ♥ 1 | Per usual, the entries by @brainoid and @honest-dan 's team amazed me. This game is so much fun ! I really like it and it's a really unique take on the theme. Maybe you should investigate the option to make this a full fledged game ! Well done, graphics are amazing, audio is on point, thank you for making this ! |
| Apr 22 18:57:34 | 9m 01s | CHARGER! | ♥ 0 | This is an interesting concept. It is quite simple, but it would have been nice to have some variation on the environment. For example the kitchen area. Maybe some added audio effects and background music, they really can make a difference. Nonetheless, well done and thank you for making this game ! |
| Apr 22 19:08:15 | 10m 41s | Pump It ! | ♥ 2 | Very nice concept, I liked the simple but stylish graphics, the music/audio was certainly fitting the game. However (I'm not sure if this was fixed in post jam already), but when the timer ran out there was nothing I could do and I had to force close the game. Other than that I really enjoyed it. One more thing, I would have liked it a bit better if the "wrong" option also followed the line and only had the head of the robot explode when it reached the end. Just a visual thing though ! Well done and thank you for the game. |
| Apr 22 19:18:28 | 10m 13s | Shadow of the Elm | ♥ 1 | Very nice little platformer. It had some typical platforming controller bugs, where you sink in the floor or it just feels "slippery" / "laggy". This could be due to the webbuild, which I completely understand. It would probably have benefited from a little bit more content, as most of the crystals were found within 2-3 screens from one another. Nonetheless, thank you for making this game ! |
| Apr 22 20:38:59 | 1h 20m | Candy's Dream Egg | ♥ 1 | I really had a retro feeling playing this earlier today. It all fits together very nicely, well done ! I hope you'll consider making this a full game. Well done ! :) Thank you for making this game |
| Apr 23 10:11:40 | 13h 32m | Bonded Crusaders | ♥ 1 | Very nice entry ! I love your typical cute style. Well designed levels and really entertaining to finish ! Well done and thank you for making this ! :) |
| Apr 23 11:55:41 | 1h 44m | Flippy Fish | ♥ 2 | Great game, we loved playing it ! It is very amusing and the art style is pretty consistent. Well done ! Great mood. The only thing that got to me a little bit is that I do not understand the Japanese titles, so maybe a subtitle would have been nice, I feel some stuff got lost in translation. Thank you for making this lovely game. |
| Apr 23 12:01:32 | 5m 51s | Flame Bearer | ♥ 0 | Hey ! I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong, but I could not get this to run in the browser. Please verify this, we really want to play it , especially considering the pretty teaser-graphics ! |
| Apr 23 12:03:45 | 2m 13s | Bacterium | ♥ 1 | Would love to play it, but as stated above, we can't :) Could you please tag me when you've managed to fix it? Cheers ! |
| Apr 23 12:14:52 | 11m 07s | Stand Still | ♥ 1 | The difficulty in this game is ramping up very fast. In fact, nearly impossibly fast. Kudos for making it in 7 hours, I wish I could see what you can do in 48 ! :) Thanks for making this :) Cheers ! |
| Apr 23 12:24:57 | 10m 05s | Dr. Statnil's Dodo Egg | ♥ 0 | Hey ! Unfortunately I could not get the game to work ! It went full blast full screen and the dropped egg landed on the net and I couldn't do anything else. If you'd fix this, please tag me so I can try again ! Cheers and thank you for making a game ! :) |
| Apr 23 12:37:15 | 12m 18s | Rumble in the Bronchs | ♥ 1 | Hey, thanks for making this game. It is offcourse a very touchy and actual topic! However there were some serious resolution issues where I could not see the entire screen. In fact at first I was thinking that I could "move" into different rooms because I could not see the edges of the level. Cheers ! |
| Apr 23 12:49:59 | 12m 44s | Keep it afloat! | ♥ 3 | Hey ! We had a lot of fun playing this, very well done, brings back memories of patapon, CLASSIC ! The graphics are definitely among the best I've seen so far in this LD ! Thank you for making this game :) |
| Apr 23 12:59:12 | 9m 13s | Heartventure | ♥ 2 | Hey, thank you for making this game. Maybe a remark, it would be nice if there was an indication for the beat. For example some outline that grows out from the heart that shows you when the alternate the pumping button presses. Very nice ! Liked playing it. |
| Apr 23 13:14:32 | 15m 20s | Bobbleheads want to dance | ♥ 2 | Hello, thank you for making this game. It is a nice and very simple clicker game. Great storytelling, really nice voice acting, but maybe the game would feel more polished if there was a larger variation in bobble heads, because as it stands, they are all identical. Nonetheless, great game, congratulations ! :) Cheers ! |
| Apr 23 15:53:22 | 2h 38m | Chronocipher | ♥ 5 | Very interesting concept ! I love the visuals and the voice acting...Per usual one of the games that stand out most AND are integrated in a beautiful community. I hope I'll see you make mugcakes again soon ! :D Cheers ! |
| Apr 25 07:30:14 | 39h 36m | CRAZ | ♥ 1 | Hello there ! I like the premise of the game ! It has a good snappy feel to it, a bit complex at first without proper tutorial but as you said, you'll be working on that ! :) The controls are easy enough and the blood splatter trail? by GOD that feels satisfying. WELL DONE ! Thank you for making this game :) |
| Apr 26 07:56:30 | 24h 26m | Get off my Planet! | ♥ 1 | This one's pretty fun ! Well done, thanks for making this. In terms of the theme, I am missing the link a little bit I think, but that could just be me... And as you probably've read in the comments above, there are some "classic" bugs in here (such as the aiming that's to the bottom left of the cursor, the typical mistake there is not to take into consideration the width/height of the cursor). As for UI work... It is very cumbersome, which is why I try to avoid it in 2-3 day jams. They need the proper time and effort to make sense and I fully understand your design decisions ! However, a little bit more "metadata" and information on what to buy would have been nice, since that's in my opinion one of your core mechanics. Great entry and would recommend playing again! |
| Apr 26 08:00:04 | 3m 34s | Magic Garden | ♥ 1 | Nice entry ! We had fun playing it for sure. The audio and graphics are a very nice match and the controls are snappy, as they should be for a platformer. Great job ! Thank you for making this ! |
| Apr 26 08:30:20 | 30m 16s | Breaking Egg | ♥ 1 | At first this looked like "just-another-egg-protecting" game. But boy... this has some speedlevel stress coming for free ! Very well done. It sometimes seems a bit punishing though and maybe an even snappier respawn would help. For example, in the second level I tried many things but I got hit anyway when spawning. Apart from that, pretty fun game, nice entry :) Thank you for making this. |
| Apr 26 08:41:52 | 11m 32s | AetherPath | ♥ 1 | Great attempt , well done. From experience I've learned that making this type of game in 48 hours is a Herculean task (I one made a mini RTS in compo), so I fully appreciate what you've made here ! :) Sure there are some bugs, but I'll let those slide easily. The one thing is balancing... a travelling ship takes ages to get somewhere and it seems when I alt tab the game comes to a halt, so I'm stuck watching it happen for 5 minutes or something. That kind of breaks the flow of the game... EITHER WAY, thank you for making this ! |
