| Apr 20 14:22:12 | . less | ♥ 1 | Fun little narrative game. The graphics are simple but serve the presentation well. Really nice soundscape and mood! I was surprised to find an actual ending 😄 | |
| Apr 20 14:27:38 | 5m 26s | SIMULATION | ♥ 1 | Very nice environment! I tried to run off the edge of the floor, assuming you just made it big enough so nobody would actually just run there and was surprised to find myself looping back around to the main scene 👍 I think most of the fun here is figuring out what to use. To me reusing objects makes them more like just another mechanic, but I understand it's a game jam/you had a different design in mind so... |
| Apr 20 15:02:05 | 34m 27s | FEED | ♥ 1 | As has been said already: great visuals and music/sound!! I couldn't finish para-normal, only got to level five I think, but got a time of 18.34 on normal 😄 The paranormal level with alternating platforms can be completely bypassed by jumping up the left wall by the way 😉 |
| Apr 20 15:11:59 | 9m 54s | Keep Heart Beat | ♥ 0 | I'd like the speed to ramp up a bit faster and the heartbeats to be closer together. This way I was waiting for something to do for the most part. I messed up only on quick groups of different heartbeats in a row so I'd suggest maybe manually designing a few dozen interesting heartbeat formations and using those as building blocks in your generator. Shame you opted out of mood because I think it sells the hospital room vibe very well! |
| Apr 20 15:33:36 | 21m 37s | Save Bob | ♥ 0 | I saved up for the grenade on my first run only to find out I can't buy it right away. Try to signal to the player that those are upgrades and need to be bought in order. Other than that it's fun to slowly build an army behind oneself 😄 I'd also suggest mixing the sound effects a little quieter. I had some slight performance problems when there were many birds on the screen but I think that's just the python game engine 🤷 |
| Apr 20 15:51:30 | 17m 54s | Last Hope | ♥ 1 | Very nice graphics! The font reminds me of Secret of Monkey Island dialog, so 👍 I wish there was more to do, but as a game jam game that's of course alright 😄 I think you should hint at the right choice in battle, so maybe the king telling a story about a general who charged the enemy and failed etc. because like this it is a guessing game. |
| Apr 20 15:57:50 | 6m 20s | ERROR 404 | ♥ 1 | Voice acting in a LD entry is always nice! Seems to take inspiration from Rick and Morty regarding voice and virus look 😄 I didn't realize the computer was attacked from behind too, so I lost because of that... |
| Apr 20 16:12:10 | 14m 20s | Rolly and the Flower | ♥ 1 | Interesting mechanic, playing catch while navigating a platformer level! Some more work on the background art would've helped a lot but the art that's there is nice. I would reset the platforms when the player restarts so they are always on the same cycle. The way it is I had to wait for a long while on some levels before I could attempt them again... |
| Apr 20 21:21:34 | 5h 09m | Platdaughter | ♥ 1 | Creative concept, protecting a sidekick in a platformer. Sadly I couldn't handle the controls, running and jumping with one hand and aiming with the other... The large collision boxes on the spikes also hit me way too often, even when I was already standing on a platform. Try to make the hitboxes advantageous to the player, even if that makes them less accurate. Music in a compo entry is always nice to hear! |
| Apr 20 21:31:30 | 9m 56s | Tiny Fragments | ♥ 1 | Amazing! Reminds me of Nitrome flash games, very nice! Cool concept, perfect execution, not much to add 😄 |
| Apr 20 21:57:20 | 25m 50s | Light from a star | ♥ 1 | I agree with @team-prosit : if the bars rose and fell a little slower one could play more with thought than just frantically shifting so that everybody stays alive. Nevertheless, nice graphics and on theme 👍 |
| Apr 20 22:06:31 | 9m 11s | The Dark | ♥ 1 | The mood is definitely the strong point of this game, only sound is missing. Faster move speed would be nice, this is just agonizing to watch 😄 |
| Apr 20 22:18:44 | 12m 13s | Save the Spacemen | ♥ 2 | I like the boost mechanic,although I'd rather run and jump on the arrow/wasd keys and boost with space. Cool that you took the time to create the music in the jam, often people run out of time when it comes to sound 😁 |
| Apr 20 22:39:06 | 20m 22s | Sourdough Starter Kit | ♥ 1 | Quite funny and actually gets you into finishing the dough 😁 After failing to get anything into the jar carefully in the beginning I changed to a more free playstyle and it kept working, nice job 😃 Sound would've really added something as well... |
| Apr 22 16:20:28 | 41h 41m | Wave Machine | ♥ 1 | Fun game with great music and happy visuals 😄 I missed those quick succession hits so often, that's on me though... |
| Apr 22 23:34:55 | 7h 14m | Manage the ongoing situation | ♥ 0 | I won saving 48 people 😄 But it may be cheating to use a drawing tablet instead of the mouse... Even though it is such a simple simulation it illustrates what happens if a few people get infected. In the later stages it's practically game over if you can't contain the first few infected 😄 |
| Apr 22 23:55:44 | 20m 49s | A Bzon Warehouse | ♥ 1 | I found the understated bathroom meter to be quite interesting. I played the most part of the game just looking at the item and having the rest in peripheral vision. The letters for the items can be memorized quite easily, as long as you know the name of the item, so that was quite fun in the end. Regarding difficulty, I finished on my first playthrough after soiling myself the first two days, but it was very fun to play. I think the bathroom mechanic should be explained a little better in the beginning, this way I didn't know what was happening the first few times ^^ |
| Apr 23 00:11:44 | 16m 00s | Amaze-on Game | ♥ 0 | Quite stressful, nice use of the assets though! I'm not the biggest fan of using the number row in typing games, just because I'm not as fast there 😄 |
