| Apr 20 19:39:35 | Keep I.T. Alive! | ♥ 0 | It's hilarious! I really like the voicing and the art style. I think it has a good base to develop into a complete game. I still lacked the rules, the ability to lose / win and some kind of gameplay progression. Nevertheless, I had fun trying it out. Great job for a compo entry! | |
| Apr 20 19:49:42 | 10m 07s | The Game of our Lives | ♥ 1 | It's beautiful. I really love the music and the graphics is great. Voicing is awesome, reminded me the voice acting from "Getting over it". Very good to go into one's thoughts. I did miss a game element though. Small note, when playing the web version, the resolution seems too big for my monitor, so I have to use scroll bars to get to the game screen edges. Because of that also the full screen button can't be reached. It might be just me, but I had the same problem with my game and I fixed it by reducing resolution in itch.io to 1280 x 720. Other than that, great job and a piece of great art. Thank you for creating it! |
| Apr 20 19:55:22 | 5m 40s | Dog Feeder | ♥ 1 | Hilarious! Simple yet lots of fun. Great job for a compo! |
| Apr 20 20:11:13 | 15m 51s | Keep It Alight | ♥ 1 | Amazing light game, sounds and smooth gameplay. I really loved the details like leaving blood pixels on the spikes. And great quotes and ideas behind the game. Final scene is beautiful. It's the best game I've played so far in this jam. I was wondering if there is any Easter egg after you exit the cave and go up and to the left. I did a long distance but gave up when the ground started to become too steep to be able to come back. Really great job for 48 hours of work! |
| Apr 20 20:21:03 | 9m 50s | Firelighter | ♥ 0 | I have never played a Pico-8 game and I found this game really interesting. I loved the oldschool feel behind the gamplay, graphics and audio. I did lack the rules explanation and ability to win or score some points. But overall, it's been fun, great job! |
| Apr 21 19:27:27 | 23h 06m | My inners are ours | ♥ 2 | Awesome graphics! Very original idea. But I agree that checkpoints are really needed because it's rather challenging to get to the end without much dying. Also missed some sounds to amplify the mood. All in all, I enjoyed playing it, great job! |
| Apr 21 19:52:24 | 24m 57s | Human Apocalypse | ♥ 2 | Great game! As said above, the animations are perfect. The music sounds very live, I liked it a lot. The mood is awesome, I loved the story and the ending! From improvements, I would double that the button font color in the menu is barely visible, the text in the bottom is too small and there are a couple of bugs like the door sound getting stuck when the neihbour comes to the bedroom. Overall, I really enjoyed playing it, great job! |
| Apr 21 19:58:53 | 6m 29s | Keep a Plant | ♥ 1 | Very solid game for the first try on your own! Simple but complete. Gameplay is straight forward, art is on point, sound fits well and I really like how the soundtrack feels. Everything comes together very nicely. Great job and keep up the good work! |
| Apr 21 20:09:18 | 10m 25s | An Afternoon Adventure | ♥ 1 | I liked the story and the funny mood. The gameplay is fun but a bit unpolished: small multi-jumps felt a bit weird. Love the art style, did you actually use pen and paper? I was bit confused when the game suddenly finished, a victory message would help there. Nevertheless, it's quite complete - you can win, you can loose and the gameplay is clear. Didn't have problems with finding controls but small hints like you have about the head would be nice. Overall, I enjoyed playing it, well done! |
| Apr 21 20:21:22 | 12m 04s | Sheep it alive! | ♥ 0 | Very impressive for the first compo entry! Interesting and challenging gameplay, I liked multiple difficulties. Neat art and animations. Hilarious sound effects and fitting soundtrack. The game is complete and fun to play. Everything is perfect, one thing I still felt is that it gets a bit boring the more you play. Maybe some pickups / power ups / skills would make it more diversified. All in all, it's a really great game, I enjoyed playing it! |
| Apr 21 20:35:51 | 14m 29s | The Light Child | ♥ 1 | Cute game with interesting gameplay. Not too hard but not so user-friendly to keep switching between the objects you carry all the time. The programming part seems to be quite polished. Overall, great job, very impressive for a first compo entry! |
| Apr 21 21:00:06 | 24m 15s | The Soulkeeper | ♥ 1 | The art is great, very impressive for a compo entry! Loved the model and animations of the main character, as well as all the other models in the game. The gameplay is fun but was a bit too challenging for me, couldn't keep up with all the things happening on the screen. An ability to heal would make it more user-friendly. Really great job! |
| Apr 21 21:09:12 | 9m 06s | Tears of Coffee | ♥ 0 | Very impressive art for a compo entry! Gameplay was very smooth. Music was fitting to the mood. The main thing missing for me was inability to win or lack of progression. If you add that, it would a nice well-polished order execution game. Great job! |
| Apr 21 21:19:13 | 10m 01s | Kitty King | ♥ 0 | Interesting game. I liked the art style, especially the kitty-king. The mechanic is fine. I was missing the hit point indicator at first but could quickly figure out that cat can take three hits. Was a bit too challenging for me to proceed too far though. Is there any way to win it? Great job overall! |
| Apr 21 21:30:27 | 11m 14s | GORID-19 | ♥ 1 | Great simulation game, I liked it a lot! The most innovative and interesting game I've seen so far in this jam. Tutorial helped a lot. One thing I was missing was information on how the quarantine works, because I couldn't send recovered pals back to their planets and quarantine planet quickly ran out of space. I'm really looking forward to see how you develop it further. Really like the concept. Great job! |
| Apr 22 18:26:16 | 20h 55m | The Plant Shop | ♥ 2 | Very nice polished game! Even though it's simple, it's feels complete and pleasant to play. Graphics and UI/UX are great, music fits well and creates the mood, story line / instructions made me giggle. The gameplay is polished but it would make it more replayable if there was more diversity like power ups, enemies or more levels. But I completely support your decision to limit the scope as much as possible for the first game jam. Btw, very impressive for the first try. Great job, I enjoyed playing it! |
| Apr 22 18:39:43 | 13m 27s | Rolling Chicken TD | ♥ 2 | Really amazing gameplay! I'm very impressed how you managed to implement so many features in 72 hours. The game was really fun to play and kept me excited till the final wave. I really liked the feature with mobs stealing eggs so that towers can attack them on their way back. The mood was good, I liked the art (again, very impressive that you've created so much of it) and the music. What I was missing are smoother animations and sound effects, some visual and audio response to actions. But the exciting gameplay totally makes up for that. Awesome job! |
| Apr 22 18:54:22 | 14m 39s | Fire Camp | ♥ 2 | Awesome graphics and amazingly polished gameplay. It was a pleasure to play it. I don't if it's me but for some reason there was no sound on the Windows version. Game was fun but it got monotonic pretty quickly. I really like the progression system but it was a bit disappointing that you need to do the same thing every time. The atmosphere is great though. Very impressive, great job guys! |
| Apr 22 19:11:12 | 16m 50s | Dr. Noir | ♥ 1 | Great game! |
| Apr 22 19:18:50 | 7m 38s | Burndown | ♥ 2 | The game is good. I like that it has all the components, gameplay is there, art is nice and music and audio are fitting as well. You could improve the game rules a bit though by adding a win condition / instructions. Otherwise, it gets monotonic rather quickly. It's pretty good for the first game jam though, I think you've done a great job. Keep it up! |
| Apr 22 19:39:57 | 21m 07s | Conservatorio | ♥ 2 | Very impressive amount of work! The game reminds me a lot fo Stardev Valley, I think you got the mood right. Art and sounds are great, very atmospheric, the gameplay is good and I really appreciate all the hints and tutorials. It took me some time to realize that I need planters to plant seeds. And even then, it seemed like the money / pricing system is a bit unbalanced. Seeds cost 1 coin, so I've bougth 20 right away, but planters are so expensive that I could buy only 2 and it took forever to grow those tomatos. Since they cost only 5 coins it takes quite a lot of time to save for new planters so you need to play for a long time to develop a solid greenhouse base. That being said, I think you've done a tremendous job and you have an awesome base for a farmer game that you can now polish and add new features to. Good luck with it! |
| Apr 22 19:58:38 | 18m 41s | Lich Clicker | ♥ 2 | Awesome art, sound and mood. Really polished and pleasant to play. Gameplay is good implementing usual clicker concepts but as any clicker gets monotonic quite quickly. The story line, decisions and voice acting helps to devirsify the gaming experience quite well though. Great job! |
| Apr 24 19:21:12 | 47h 22m | Keep Dano Alive | ♥ 2 | Took me some time to make the game launch but after trying different zips and executing multiple times it worked! The concept is great, reminds me of Overcooked. Gameplay is smooth, no bugs found and quite polished. Art is great and there is a lot of it, I really liked it. Music and sounds are very fitting and voice acting is very nice to hear, even though it sounded a little bit artificial. It's amazing that you created all of it in just three days! The main improvement point would be complexity progression. You have a lot of content but you need to do the same thing all the time which gets boring quite quickly. Would be good to diversify that somehow bby introducing new game mechanics. Overall, very impressive and I enjoyed playing it! |
| Apr 24 19:26:57 | 5m 45s | Lettuce Be Friends | ♥ 1 | Very original idea! Unfortunately, I missed the main goal of the game from the lengthy tutorial. But when I saw the game over screen with the explanation it became very clear. So I would suggest putting something more similar to the game over screen to tutorial instead. It describes the goal very briefly and concretely. Other than that, everything is great. I really liked the diversified gameplay, awesome art and fitting sound. All of that creates perfect mood. I really enjoyed playing it! |
| Apr 24 19:34:55 | 7m 58s | Lamps | ♥ 2 | Very impressive! Super innovative! The best mood, but missed some spooky music. Great job! |
| Apr 24 20:05:07 | 30m 12s | Recursion | ♥ 1 | This game deserves a lot more ratings! Maybe you should put more screenshots? Or maybe you should rate more other games to get the balance up? It hurts me to see so little feedback on such a masterpiece. The art, music, sound and voice acting are awesome, creating amazing post-apocalyptic mood. At the same time narrator's comments were on point and made me giggle while dying dozens of times. The gameplay is polished. But what is really incredible is game and level design. At first I was frustrated that I couldn't reach some platforms but after reading some comments here I went back and did finish the game. The complexity is crazy by the way, I was so lucky to finish the final part with the first try. What you could do better is to put some instructions to the game. I haven't carefully read the game description initially and had no idea that I should hold space to jump higher and that I could double jump. Also drop jump came as a big surprise. It was probably intended, but all the platforms are put so that you can barely make it with double-long-jumps. I've wasted lots of time to figure them out. There is complexity progression but it feels like it starts from super-hard and ends with impossible. No medium and no time to take a break. It is amazingly rewarding to complete this hell though. Unfortunately, not many players enjoy these kinds of challenges. How I wanted to approach it in my game (didn't have time to implement though) was to have two difficulties: one with relaxed jump force, speed and health parameters for those who prefer easy games and another with parameters that are barely enough to make it through the game for those who like challenge. Overall, one of the best games I've played so far in this jam. Great job! |
| Apr 24 20:35:14 | 30m 07s | Nature of Fear | ♥ 2 | Great graphics and atmosphere, some creepy ambient music would be a good addition. Gameplay is a bit clunky at times, but overall I liked it. Good job! |
| Apr 24 20:42:34 | 7m 20s | Friendly Fire | ♥ 3 | Awesome story! I really liked the plot and the dialogues. And of course everything else deserves the highest mark. Smooth controls, beautiful pixel art, fitting sounds and music, everything creates a great mood and immersive experience. I would double the others that it would be good to decrease the main music volume during the dance minigame. But all in all, I think it's one of the best games I've played here so far. Well done! |
| Apr 24 20:57:22 | 14m 48s | Defend the Keep! | ♥ 0 | It was fun to shoot around! Very nice missile and explosion visuals. A good base for a more complete game. It's a pity that it's not finished but you've done a great job to get that far nevertheless! The main thing that is not so hard to do and which was missing was the rules of the game: win, lose, score. It would a lot more fun and complete if those were present. |
| Apr 24 21:00:51 | 3m 29s | She Rocks | ♥ 1 | Very educational and innovative! I really liked the idea. The graphics is neat and the atmosphere was pretty good as well. Unfortunately, the bird was dying too fast and there was no way to heal it. I guess you can manage it if you're really good, but then maybe a progression system for the time to die would make the game easier to learn and postpone the challenge to the late game. Great job overall! |
| Apr 24 21:15:41 | 14m 50s | Pumpkin Keeper | ♥ 1 | Very nice game! Gameplay is clean, art is awesome, sounds and music fit well, the story and dialogues are great creating a very good mood. And it's feels complete. I enjoyed playing it, well done! |
| Apr 26 19:09:11 | 45h 53m | PostCat | ♥ 1 | Amazing game, it definitely deserves more ratings! I loved the mood. Art was awesome and music and sound effects fitted right in. I really appreciate the UI animations and transitions, they make the menu alive. The way you present the tutorial to the player is great, there are little number of games in this jam that have a tutorial at all, but you're the first team to use such an immersive way to present it. Helps a lot to understand the rules. The game and level design are very good, it starts simple but I did spend sime time to get through the last level. The only thing I would comment is that you seemed to focus more on the speed challenge while I would expect more of a puzzle challenge in such a game. Overall, I believe it's a solid base for a very fun game! Great job making it in just three days, you deserve the highest ratings! |
| Apr 26 19:36:47 | 27m 36s | MR BUZZ'S FANCY-ASS PICNIC | ♥ 1 | It's amazing, one of the best games in this jam for sure! Art and voice acting is so great. Simple idea but extremely well implemented. I had a lot of fun playing it, well done! |
| Apr 26 20:16:03 | 39m 16s | Candle in the rain | ♥ 1 | It was a really touching experience! Your game definitely deserves more ratings. It has one of the best stories I've in game jams. Puzzles make it even more exciting. Took me some time and viewing your comment above to figure out the last one. But it was totally worth it. The models are great, it's a pity you couldn't add the texture but the graphics does its magic anyway given the dark mood. Music is beautiful, you have my highest appreciation for it. It adds to the mood tremendously. You've done an amazing job for a 48 hour jam and I truly hope you will polish it even more adding the textures and nice UI elements. Good luck! |
| Apr 27 18:56:41 | 22h 40m | SAVE THE DINOS! | ♥ 0 | I love the idea! Very simple yet very engaging. Love the art and the sound even though would prefer something more funky in terms of music to fit better to the mood. The game is very well polished, well done for a solo jam entry! |
| Apr 27 19:06:14 | 9m 33s | Keep Pit Alive! | ♥ 1 | Unfortunately, couldn't get out of the very firts pit due to very low jump. Based on a review looks good though. A really like the art style and animations. |
| Apr 27 19:13:14 | 7m 00s | Social Distancing For LadyBugs | ♥ 1 | Very nice little game! I really like the idea and it does get challenging the longer you play. Loved the AI movement, work really smoothly. The gameis quite polished overall as well. Great job for the first game jam! |
| Apr 27 19:20:29 | 7m 15s | The Dragon's Curse | ♥ 2 | Great story-telling and dialogues! Loved the art and sound and music fit well together. Very nice fantasy medieval mood. Great job! |
| Apr 27 20:16:23 | 55m 54s | Tamagotchi Mastermind | ♥ 0 | Very nice and polished game! Loved the art and the music was amazing. I'm not sure if the music fitted the mood though. Great job! |
| Apr 28 19:03:27 | 22h 47m | Twitch Feeds | ♥ 1 | Original idea! You got me hooked for a bit there. I would really like to see how you could diversify it a bit more using more game mechanics like obstacles, power ups, enemies, PvP etc. It's a good base for a fun game but in its current state it gets monotonic quite quickly. The art is cute and I love the music and sound effects! So the mood is pretty good. And I really like that it's complete and playable. Great job for a compo game! |
| Apr 28 20:21:43 | 1h 18m | Squirrel Saver | ♥ 1 | On the first level I thought that the physics are a bit weird and game and level design are a bit too simplistic. On the third level I got used to the physics and thought that the game and level design are not so bad actually. On the tenth level I became fully addicted to the game and thought that game and level design are amazing and you have to be a genius to come up with all these puzzle levels in such a short period of time! Really impressive piece of work. Art, sound and music fit very well and I'm really amazed thinking how you managed to put it all together in just 48 hours. Tremendous job, I enjoyed playing it a lot! |
| Apr 29 19:37:34 | 23h 15m | Custom Critter Fighter | ♥ 1 | It's my favorite game in this game jam! I like shoot-em-ups and roguelikes and you combined them in a great way! I think it deserves to go to production and I would be really excited to play it when it does. I was really amazed how you kept the balance, it was very interesting till the last level. One thing I was really waiting for was a boss level but it never came. And of course neat graphics and fitting music create a great mood. I played it for 30 min and I don't regret. Amazing job for a jam game! Do let me know if you're going to develop it further. |
| Apr 30 20:53:14 | 25h 15m | READ THE LABEL | ♥ 0 | Hilarious! Loved the game, completed all the levels. Awesome original idea! |
| May 1 19:36:16 | 22h 43m | Lemons! | ♥ 1 | Very interesting game mechanic but needs polishing. Enjoyed playing it, great job! |
| May 1 20:19:52 | 43m 36s | Angst | ♥ 2 | Awesome idea but needs some polishing. Very nice story and monologues, art and music are very atmospheric. However, gameplay was a bit too simplistic and incomplete. I played till day 6 and stopped because dialogues were repeating every day and no office mini-games happened anymore, so I got an impression that there is no end to it. Plus there were some small annoying bugs and performance problems, for instance character's sprite displayed on top of a table and object, lagging in the forest, a bit weird character's animation. That being said, I really liked the idea and could definitely relate. Very original and fun to play, great job! |
| May 3 16:47:34 | 44h 27m | Companion | ♥ 1 | Graphics is really nice! I really like the pixel art and animations. Music and sounds are also quite fitting. The idea is very interesting and original. Quite uncommon that in a game you care about HP of another character rather than yours. I do feel that there could be a lot more to it. For instance, I was really lacking healing pickups. Couldn't really make it further than the third room. I think with some pickups, power-ups and abilities it would be a lot of fun. Right now it's a bit repetitive, even though it does look and sounds good. Overall, I should admit that you've done a really good job! Oh, I also noticed one weird thing that sometimes when the friend is attacked, it stays on spot and doesn't follow the knight. |
| May 3 17:46:45 | 59m 11s | Outpowered | ♥ 1 | Amazing gameplay! Lots of really great features. I really like the concept of being forced to come back to the base (did the same in my game), the maze level design (I was concidering implementing it for my game but went with a simpler design) and enemy waves that force you to return to the base more frequently and add to the challenge. Really impressive game mechanics you've gathered and managed to implement in just 48 hours! Graphics, sounds and music are simple but fit well. I think I would enjoy the game even more if those were a bit more complex and colorful. I feel like it looks more like a prototype rather than production ready game. Which is not bad at all given the amazing gameplay. All in all, you did a really great job and I largely enjoyed playing it! |
| May 3 18:15:47 | 29m 02s | Seafood | ♥ 1 | Amazing graphics and UI! Probably the best visuals I've encountered in this jam. Really impressive. Music and sounds fit really well. The story and humor are great, made me giggle quite a bit. Gamepay is fun and gets quite challenging. What adds to the challenge is a bit weird behavior of fish babies. I played both version of the game but in both they follow you with some time lag and it happens quite frequently that you lose them on the way and have to go back to pick them up. Not sure if it was intended but it felt quite frustrating. That was one of the reasons why I couldn't finish the third level. Or maybe I'm just that bad. =D I did like the original AI more though, it looked smoother and more natural. Overall, really great game, I enjoyed it a lot. If you polish the gameplay a bit and diversify it to make more interesting it's gonna be a production-ready game. Well done! |
| May 6 19:30:51 | 73h 15m | The Holy Sword | ♥ 1 | Original idea! I like the gameplay, the art and the music create very good mood. Would be great to have more moves to diversify the strategy. Great job! |
| May 7 18:16:04 | 22h 45m | Amafufunyana First Jam :D | ♥ 2 | Amazing graphics but a bit confusing gameplay. I guess it's me but I couldn't find any of the things unfortunately. The sounds were a bit artificial. Some background noise and fade in / fade out would help to make them more natural. I did enjoy the environment really but was missing some music to add to the mood. Overall, you did a really great job with the graphics but some user experience hints and diversified gameplay could make it even better. Thank you for creating it! |
| May 7 18:41:26 | 25m 22s | Life | ♥ 1 | Original idea, I would really like to see how you develop it further to add more game elements. The idea to base game mechanics of game of life rules is really good. |
| May 7 18:44:58 | 3m 32s | IMOJC | ♥ 0 | Very original idea, liked it a lot. Would be great to develop it further and add more game elements! |
| May 11 18:36:35 | 95h 51m | Will of the Wisp | ♥ 2 | Tried Chrome, Edge and Firefox but the furtherst I could is the black screen with three white dots, after I enter my name. It's really sad after all the positive comments I've read here. Please let me know if there is any other way to play your game. |
| May 12 19:22:44 | 24h 46m | Morose | ♥ 1 | Awesome Undertaly touch! Really impressive amount of work done in just 48 hours. Art, sound, music, story and mood made it really immersive. I enjoyed the plot and would really like to see even more of it. The gameplay was very original and and I liked it a lot. There were a couple of weird things but they were already mentioned in the comments above, so I won't repeat. Super well done! |
| May 12 19:27:32 | 4m 48s | Keep her alive, please.. | ♥ 1 | The art is really good, I loved it! The gameplay is promising but challenging as hell. The game speed felt way to fast. Maybe if you slow it down two times and make the red blocks more rare, it would be more doable. Especially in the beginning, when the player doesn't really know what to do. You could still increase the speed as the game progresses or add several difficulty levels. And yes, a tutorial would be very helpful. I had to look through the comments to understand what exectly is killing me every time I start the game =D Overall, I really liked the feel of it and with some minor gameplay tweeks it would an enjoyable little game. Great job! |
