| Apr 21 18:49:24 | Carnabis | ♥ 0 | I enjoyed the concept of the game, thought it was a little difficult to figure out how to play it at first! For anyone else who's wondering, you have to recharge the watering can, radio and lamp, and hold right click when directly behind the plant. It can be really finicky as to when using an item actually fills up the plants bars! It would be good to make the area the player has to stand in to use an item a little bigger. :) I also couldn't figure out how to feed the plant with cooked food unless I got the plant to attack me and eat the meat in the process! The art and mood of the game was fun, and I really enjoyed that. The music brought a lot of life to it as well. Nice asking price btw ;) Great job on the entry and keep making games! | |
| Apr 21 19:12:26 | 23m 02s | Ice Light | ♥ 3 | The art and mood of the game was incredible! I think the darkness was a little to dark at times though, and it did end up preventing me from finishing the game. I scouted out the path I had to take, but would get stuck when trying to platform in the dark after leaving the firefly on a button. It's a really pretty game, and I hope you keep making them! |
| Apr 21 19:22:58 | 10m 32s | Trending Beasts | ♥ 1 | I always appreciate a web build! A really cool idea and I'd love to see it developed further. :) The idea of mythical monsters getting with the times and having to get an online presence is really funny. Being able to move around the map to appear would have been an extra element to the gameplay, and perhaps there could have been park rangers that will attack you if you appear in front of them. A couple of small additions like this could make it into an even cooler game! Great job on the entry and keep making games! |
| Apr 21 19:48:53 | 25m 55s | Whalestrom | ♥ 2 | The aesthetic for this game is just incredible! I really loved the atmosphere of this game, but the gameplay is too twitchy to hold up to the art, sound and animation. The homing missiles are the only weapon that really worked for me, as there was no way I was going to be able to target the moving ships with the lasers! I also think I experienced a bug where the whale was getting damaged, but the health bar wasn't updating. I lost the game whilst the whale was apparently still at full health. A little bit of work to slow down the game and tighten up the controls would make this such a phenomenal game! Keep at it! |
| Apr 21 19:56:20 | 7m 27s | Dying Concerto | ♥ 1 | This is such a cool concept for a game! I have to admit I was a bit disappointed that I'm playing as a conductor and don't get to use the mouse to control the baton. :( I think the gameplay could be a lot more interesting if you were redirecting orbs using the baton. But what you have is still cool, just a little difficult to control! I think the theme and the artstyle you went with really stands out compared to a lot of the entries for this jam, and it's definitely one of the stronger points of your game for me. Really good job, and keep making games! |
| Apr 21 20:03:42 | 7m 22s | Dungeon Ball | ♥ 0 | This is such a cool idea for a game! I really love the innovation with this. It would be so cool to see it developed further. An issue I found with the game is that it doesn't matter who threw a ball, it can still completely wreck their own team. My teammates really liked to blast me to pieces at the start of a match. Perhaps the ball could turn blue/red depending on which team throws it. In the future, a game like this with upgrades and team composition could be really awesome, and I would play a lot of that game. Thanks for coming up with a fresh idea, and keep making games! |
| Apr 21 20:26:04 | 22m 22s | Steve: Cute & Hungry | ♥ 2 | A really cool game! The art style is nice and colourful, and the writing really helps set the mood. I would suggest if possible keeping the whole game on one screen, as that's the main thing that stopped me from being able to complete the game. There was a lot going even without having to move the camera haha! Maybe I'm just biased but I really enjoy Steve themed games. ;) Great job on this entry and keep making games! |
| Apr 21 21:13:07 | 47m 03s | Gardening Angel Kung Fu | ♥ 0 | Such a stylish game! The intro alone is worth a high mood score haha. The camera work when fighting is really fun, and I enjoyed the low poly art style. I tried to cheese the game by constantly spamming attacks, and staying invincible, but the aliens would often shoot me at just the right time to get a hit, hah. It's a fun game but the difficulty curve could do with some tweaking! Level two was a lot harder than the first. It's a really solid entry, and I hope you keep making games! Good work! |
| Apr 21 21:24:48 | 11m 41s | Creature Keeper | ♥ 1 | A really funny take on tamagotchi! It was fun to play through, but would have benefited from being clearer with how far through the game you made it. I'm not sure I got to read all the brilliant writing! Great entry, keep making games! |
| Apr 21 21:35:27 | 10m 39s | Save the Fish | ♥ 1 | Such an artistically impressive game! The sound design really ramped up the absurdity of it all. I enjoyed this a lot, but the screen space could have been put to use by having the fish be bigger. I ended up a few of my longer runs by misclicking what I thought SHOULD have been the body but ended up being the head. :( A really solid entry, and I can't wait to see what you make next! @jlv Simon Says is a sequence game, so you can't start at the end ;) |
| Apr 21 21:41:09 | 5m 42s | Quack Runner | ♥ 3 | A nice little twist on an infinite runner by having to manage your train of ducklings. The art style is simple and nice, but with everything wobbly it can make my brain hurt a bit! The audio is funny, but maybe put a profanity warning at the beginning of the game for anyone who might be streaming! A solid entry, keep making games! |
| Apr 21 21:48:40 | 7m 31s | Eggbert II | ♥ 1 | A simple and easy to understand idea, but a cool one to play! It would have been great to see more levels, but what you have is nice. If you add different shaped levels in the future it could add a lot of interesting puzzling decisions! I experienced a bug where I played the game TOO well, and all of the wyverns died and the game locked up. :( A good entry, keep making games! |
| Apr 21 22:14:36 | 25m 56s | Pandamonium | ♥ 0 | A really stylish game! The UI was handled really well, other than the inconsistent controls as you've already mentioned. ;) This game could be spectacular when you've added the other things on your to-do list! Great job, keep making games! |
