| Apr 20 03:27:45 | Feeding Time! | ♥ 1 | Enjoyed it quite a bit! I think the platforming may have been a touch hard for the first level though. Loved the milk boost mechanic, and the animations were cute! | |
| Apr 20 03:53:19 | 25m 34s | Robo Riot | ♥ 1 | Game Feels awesome. Super polished and enjoyable. The dash is smooth, and moving around and shooting enemies is a good time. Upgrades in between rounds was surprising, and added a ton to the game. The only thing annoying is hunting down the enemies that spawn far away from you. I would also say it would add a sense of urgency if the enemies could attack the core, that might make the gameplay more stressful. |
| Apr 20 04:02:24 | 9m 05s | Oregano Thanks | ♥ 1 | This is a prime example of graphics not making the game. Incredibly fun, I was really surprised by how fun it was to protect the plant. I would say you could improve on the UI the most, I couldn't tell what all the bars on the screen ment, but I had fun blasting away! |
| Apr 20 05:02:36 | 1h 00m | Me and My BEAST | ♥ 0 | I liked the concept, but the game was so sped up it was a bit unplayable. I know the problem come from the frame rate, but a touch unfortunate. Another note, I think a better graphic for the wheat would be nice, I thought they were fences at first. |
| Apr 20 19:53:02 | 14h 50m | A Meatball | ♥ 0 | Overall this was a pretty fun little game. My only complaint would be the controls feel a little wonky. I naturally wanted to hit Left arrow and down arrow to move downwards due to the orientation, and the opposite to go up, but this caused you to go diagonal. I would recommend either changing the orientation, or changing the control scheme to match with your current orientation. |
| Apr 20 19:55:30 | 2m 28s | StarMart | ♥ 2 | Game looks like a lot of fun, I would recommend reuploading to Itch.IO. You seem to have hit your limit for downloads on the current site. |
| Apr 21 18:10:51 | 22h 15m | Graceful Planet | ♥ 1 | This is awesome. I think you truly captured what a Jam is all about with this one. You have a simple concept that is easy to pick up and learn, but makes for fun gameplay. The music is nice, and I love the overall aesthetic. Did you 2-D model things and crunch it down to look like pixel art? Or was it all traditional pixel art? The grabbing animation on the planet is extremely satisfying. |
| Apr 23 04:57:18 | 34h 46m | Useless Machines Inc. | ♥ 1 | Great aesthetics. |
| Apr 23 05:07:33 | 10m 15s | Train | ♥ 2 | Nice concept and well executed. I could definitely see this being a great couch co-op game if you ever expanded upon it. |
| Apr 24 04:37:32 | 23h 29m | Can't Control Cage | ♥ 1 | Wonderfully fun concept. Great art to back it up. However, didn't feel like playing much because I didn't feel like I knew what was going on. Some explanation of what does what would help. |
| Apr 24 05:01:03 | 23m 31s | The rabbit's game | ♥ 1 | I can see what you're going for here. I like that you can't just fire carrots off rapidly. |
| Apr 24 05:08:12 | 7m 09s | SPECIAL MEAT for a special boy | ♥ 1 | This is a pristine aesthetic. Loved playing this game. |
| Apr 25 03:18:49 | 22h 10m | Save the Fish | ♥ 1 | The presentation on this is amazing. I found myself smiling the entire time I was playing. Extremely creative and fun. |
| Apr 25 03:26:03 | 7m 14s | SideKick | ♥ 1 | Nice take on the endless runner genre. Art and music could used some work, but game play mechanics were awesome. |
| Apr 25 07:55:28 | 4h 29m | Cat Dad Redemption | ♥ 1 | Really great stuff here! I found a bug where I got to level three, but it didn't advance after I killed all the dogs. Beyond this I think adding a punishment for hitting right click too soon would be good. Great stuff overall. |
| Apr 25 23:34:49 | 15h 39m | Algernon's Flower | ♥ 1 | Quite a nice little game here. Music is great, I felt like the track fit really well. I also enjoyed the art. The death screens looked especially nice. I would definitely say the enemy AI, and movement while sprinting could use some work. The AI kind of just felt like a non factor, and it was around 2 minutes of playing before I had to worry about them. The movement felt unresponsive while sprinting. Although the way it moved could potentially be fun. I found it hard to turn, and you had to slam into a wall before you could properly turn again. I think this has the potential to be a great mechanic if the levels are designed around it. |
| Apr 25 23:48:45 | 13m 56s | Keep Him Alive | ♥ 1 | Fun game. Quite challenging. My only complaint is adding some more spice to the shooting. It didn't feel like I was shooting something. Otherwise solid mechanics! |
| Apr 26 21:43:53 | 21h 55m | Run Knight Run | ♥ 0 | Nice start to an endless runner. Game feels kind of buggy overall, but I could see it working better with some polish. I seemed to fall through the map at one point, so it would probably be worth checking your collision detection. Unity can be pretty inconsistent with this, so look up some videos on making better collision detection. I'll also add that the giant octopus bosses attack patterns don't work as well for a game that uses primarily melee combat. It's impossible to have time to predict where the spot without projectiles is going to be without having space between you and the monster. I ended up just staying back and using the alternative attack on this boss. |
| Apr 26 22:02:45 | 18m 52s | Flare | ♥ 2 | ## Things I enjoyed: - Great moody feel to the game, the lighting and effects were excellent - Music is great and fits well with the theme you two were going for - Love the idea. I could totally see being an awesome game to play with my girlfriend ## Things I did not enjoy: - Biggest thing is I couldn't wrap my head around how to control. The views don't convey depth very well and it's hard to tell that the two screens are the same Level. I only got past the first two levels, and it was more by trail and error than understanding of the concepts. - Menu art could use some tweaks, but this is a small critique. My game doesn't even have a menu or pause button haha. One tip I'll add is to reference other 3-D puzzle games like captain toad here. Often before the level starts they do a rotation around the level so you get a sense for what you're looking at. I think this could do a lot to help the player gain perspective on the level. |
| Apr 26 22:18:51 | 16m 06s | Lamps | ♥ 2 | Loved the silent hill/resident evil look and feel to this game. One of the best entries for sure. |
| Apr 27 05:24:44 | 7h 05m | Pocket Bomb | ♥ 0 | ## What I liked: - Art is excellent - Sound design is great and it fits - Love the Wario ware like minigames ## What could be improved - Punishments for messing up mini games. I noticed I could just cut all wires without listening to the phone, and it would still count. - More variety of mini games Overall excellent work! |
| Apr 27 05:33:43 | 8m 59s | MACHINA | ♥ 2 | Incredibly well crafted experience. Great job! |
