| Apr 20 05:08:48 | Dad Day | ♥ 1 | Had to try this as I nearly made a very similar game, only as a sidescroller. As a pretty fresh father of one my associations with 'keep it alive' also were related to the young ones. Your game almost makes me shout for my wife to take one of them. I can't take it all alone. | |
| Apr 20 05:15:21 | 6m 33s | CP-ARTY | ♥ 3 | This concept was spot on. Love the mood of the game too, I am only missing one guy filming it all on his iPhone in the background. You know, for realism. |
| Apr 20 06:41:03 | 1h 25m | Keep The Blobs Alive | ♥ 2 | Good take on the theme, as someone else commented here some collisions to avoid nutrient overlaps would been good. Also maybe a bit higher movespeed. The music was really nice. |
| Apr 20 06:45:54 | 4m 51s | Beeeees | ♥ 1 | Love how the balloon acts/follows - that looks really nice. Controls feels good, game looks good, sounds good. And although I couldn't manage 500 points I at least got over 300. Had to try a few games to be sure I tried all the power ups :) |
| Apr 20 06:50:13 | 4m 19s | Ordinary Human Conversation | ♥ 1 | Great look to this game, and very original concept. I like the polish - looks like an already released game. Music stressed me out so much. |
| Apr 20 06:55:01 | 4m 48s | RoadRage! | ♥ 1 | Very nice look to this game, my biggest concern was seeing the bullets, a little outline or something would be nice. Apart from the gameplay this is very much like my game, was fun to see how something so similar could be this different :) |
| Apr 20 07:05:18 | 10m 17s | Nature | ♥ 1 | This is one of the best ones I've tried so far. And it's so pretty. Would love some keyboard controls to go with it tho. Love the tooltips, makes the game really easy to pick up. I got modern age in 56 years :) |
| Apr 20 07:08:41 | 3m 23s | The Blobbysitter | ♥ 1 | Fantastic music. I respect your choice not to have a mute button! |
| Apr 20 07:10:25 | 1m 44s | VillageQuake | ♥ 1 | I left the game on while writing this just to listen to the song longer. Where is the mp3 download? |
| Apr 20 07:13:58 | 3m 33s | VAT - Very Astonishing Tubs | ♥ 1 | This was cool, love the concept. Really nice touch with the details on the feeding part too :) |
| Apr 20 07:30:53 | 16m 55s | HiJinx | ♥ 1 | Adorable running animation xD I could only jump with left control, kind of an odd button to use for jumping, made the controls feel unnecessarily clunky. Music was nice and sprites looks good :) |
| Apr 20 08:44:27 | 1h 13m | Game Jam Brain | ♥ 1 | Fun take on the TD genre. I like that it's several levels and different towers. Lots of good keyboard shortcuts is a bonus. |
| Apr 20 11:24:41 | 2h 40m | Grow Together | ♥ 1 | This was an original idea. Missing some kind of button or start option when you actually grow together. It just kind of stops and then I have to reload the page. I couldn't completely understand the link between the sounds and the roots, but it felt like it was vinyl related somehow. Maybe we should be able to grow "other sounds" or something too. |
| Apr 20 11:33:45 | 9m 04s | Virtual Pet: No escape from Life | ♥ 1 | Nice work on the visualization of the different states (hungry etc), not just the bars at the top. An eye for details is under rated. Musically this was an improvement compared to the Tamagotchi, that really hurts ones ears. I would love to see some keyboard shortcuts however. I also think maybe a check so that items don't overlap would be good to see. My TimTam died after 93 days. That's like 93 in human years. |
| Apr 20 11:43:15 | 9m 30s | Gunlings | ♥ 1 | I had some issues with moving the camera around, but apart from that it was a blast to play. Kind of hard to remember what each command was, especially on level 2 when the tutorial was gone, and not all of the icons was super clear. It's quite unforgiving to put the wrong marker down in the middle of a level and then have to restart from the beginning. |
| Apr 20 11:49:50 | 6m 35s | Keep Yourself Alive | ♥ 2 | I really enjoyed this. I am gonna assume that you made it so that a zombie can't spawn on top of me, because that never happened to me, but I keep dying when the camera "jumps" a bit sideways and end up running out of ammunition. There wasn't really any point using the other weapons apart from the pistol as you would always run out of ammo. Not sure if the holes the zombies come out of has a purpose after the first zombie comes, but it clutters up the screen a bit too fast, so I'd probably have them deleted after a while. |
| Apr 20 11:53:55 | 4m 05s | Sheep it alive! | ♥ 1 | This was a great game. First I figured out I had to give "short" instructions so I wouldn't be killed by new attackers, and when I figured out I could even kill the enemies - that's when things got serious. Kind of hard to aim at the attackers. Really nice game, and such a soothing ASMR arrow sound. |
| Apr 20 12:00:47 | 6m 52s | Clueless Sheep | ♥ 1 | Very nice game, I like the circular level design. Unfortunately my sheep got hit by a car, but we had a good run. |
| Apr 20 12:14:12 | 13m 25s | Bug Smashers! (HTML5) | ♥ 1 | Haha actually using FPS as a game mechanic was genius. I was wondering for a while what the point of the game was until the FPS started dropping and I knew I was heading towards the end. Bonuskudos for putting time into making your game hard to quit. |
| Apr 20 12:17:53 | 3m 41s | Desolation | ♥ 0 | Need to put the game in full screen to see what is going on, I am having similar issues when porting my game to WebGL. Also, when restarting the game it seems like I get the music loop on top of itself over and over again, there is at least something funky with the music here. |
| Apr 20 12:25:26 | 7m 33s | Your Plant | ♥ 1 | My experience was "Easy, easy, easy, MEGA HARD". I was drowning that 3rd plant and he was still withering. Was a nice concept and a charming style to it. The details were nice, perhaps a bit monotone gameplay. Would love to see more bad stuff happen to the plant that I could fix. |
| Apr 20 12:43:10 | 17m 44s | Egg Bounce | ♥ 0 | Nice game, the egg shape makes the bounce very frustrating and unpredictable. I wish the camera followed the egg tho, I managed to get past 4 walls a few times but too fast for the camera. So I have no idea what happened to my egg. |
| Apr 20 17:33:54 | 4h 50m | Scoop | ♥ 1 | It works pretty well, but the aiming was not precise enough, unfortunately. Otherwise nice gameplay and a cool concept :) |
| Apr 20 17:53:30 | 19m 36s | Uncle Dale's Farm | ♥ 1 | A bit clunky controls, but still a very enjoyable game. It looks really nice, the sounds are hilarious, mechanics are working like a charm. All in all a great result of a game jam :) |
| Apr 21 10:31:30 | 16h 38m | PARENTHOOD | ♥ 0 | Great game, I was watching you make this on Twitch while I was programming my own, mostly because you mixed the two genres I was trying to chose from; Tower Defense and Parenting. I couldn't get web player to go full screen so had to download it. Controls are spot on, I would maybe want a tad longer range on pushing buttons - just a smidge. Visuals are great, audio too - I wish I was in your stream when you made the ambiance sound. Cheers for rating my game too :) PS: Parenthood? Completed it, mate. |
| Apr 21 12:37:07 | 2h 05m | Umm, Your Majesty... | ♥ 2 | This was a great game. Music was stressful enough, levels were just the right amount of chaotic, only thing I was missing was some kind of power ups perhaps. PS: Kudos to whoever decided on the sound hitting a trash can makes. |
| Apr 21 12:46:08 | 9m 01s | Doomsday Deliveries | ♥ 1 | Seems like a good idea this, I was missing some kind of indicator for how I was doing. I did play it a few times to try to beat it, but with no scores or indication on how I was doing I feel like it's just a game that is impossible to beat, or even set high scores in. Could also be cool to get the instructions by audio so you didn't have to read. Maybe with like distorted radio audio where you'd only get to hear like 2 or 3 of the details between the noise. |
| Apr 23 11:37:45 | 46h 51m | Verbose | ♥ 1 | Nice game, activists are very strong, but can't beat the ghost writers unfortunately :p |
| Apr 23 12:44:51 | 1h 07m | The Keep is Alive | ♥ 3 | I liked this game, the art style is adorable. Gameplay works nice once you get the hang of it. Was not sure if getting the different upgrades did anything to my keep tho. Would be good with some sort of explanation on what getting a windmill does etc. |
| Apr 23 17:57:34 | 5h 12m | YMGYPBVF: You Must Gather Your Party Before Venturing Forth | ♥ 1 | This was fantastic. I played through all of it, and somehow found the last level to be the easiest. This could really be something to be honest. I'd polish the shit out of this game, add more levels, more characters, more puzzles and you might just have the next Candy Crush game on your hands. |
