| Oct 7 03:56:24 | Hyper Racer | ♥ 1 | Really nice looking and sounding game. Needs more obstacles in the actual levels, once you get past your ghost there's nothing stopping the player from winning(expert map you just need to be careful in the beginning, really.) Maybe some boost pads or bumpers that the player has to keep an eye out for. The ghost feature is nice but its not really racing against yourself since you go faster every lap. Overall a great entry that has everything going for it. Good job! | |
| Oct 7 06:47:10 | 2h 50m | Escape The Loop | ♥ 0 | Cool game! I got pretty close to finishing it(I think) Great job for doing it all on your own. It may not be tied to the theme much but that doesn't matter as long as you had fun doing it! Here's the part that I got stuck on. LD47Loop.png |
| Oct 7 08:45:08 | 1h 57m | Dungeon Simulator | ♥ 1 | Really cool game, and surprisingly challenging! Took me a good like... 5 tries before I could consistently beat heroes. I saw a couple bugs: spawning one tower but it costs 2, the heroes sometimes stop right when they spawn and never move, but those were pretty minor. I know its outside the scope of a jam but it would be cool to have a creative mode where the player has infinite money and it just spawns heroes infinitely after. It would be cool to see the different layouts people would make if they had unlimited funds(maybe there'd have to be a limit on the different objects they can place though so its not all fireballs and freeze towers.) Nice job though! |
| Oct 9 05:18:38 | 44h 33m | Astronaut Plus Skateboard 2: Galactic Boogaloo | ♥ 2 | Definitely a unique game. It took me like 5 tries to get a seed where I could move slow enough to land on a planet. Really cool and chill atmospheric game. The speeding up and slowing down time works well for when you fly out of orbit. I feel like the seeds should generate more planets, because I'm seeing a lot of empty space even after trying 6 different seeds. Still a cool idea that is probably a lot harder to pull off than it seems! |
| Oct 9 05:43:49 | 25m 11s | The Calamity Coil | ♥ 2 | Cool idea for a game(similar to the thing I made, so I respect the direction you went with it.) It had some decent combat for being 3D and melee based. I really like how you put the UI on the shield, kinda helps show the player that they should be using it for something. I mostly just swung and backed up from the melee enemies or dodged the arrows despite having the shield. The spawns for the crystals could be a little better so that people can have a somewhat long loop while it not being so long as to make them quit the game. Throwing a story in was a nice touch for a game jam(I'm awful at that and struggled to come up with just simple hints in mine.) |
| Oct 9 08:46:59 | 3h 03m | Driven Round the Loop | ♥ 3 | Cool little puzzle game. Love the stock photos lol I thought there were ads on the itch page for a few seconds. There's really only one mechanic in this game which makes it impressive that there are so many different levels. The goals might be the same but having to plan it out more as you get further in the game is nice. Introducing more things that would've led to more puzzle variety would've been cool, but even without that there were a lot of levels for a game jam game. Great work overall! |
| Oct 9 09:09:27 | 22m 28s | Chrono Crack | ♥ 1 | Neat little game. Enjoyed the combat a bit at the beginning but having to kill bigger and bigger groups of enemies by going in circles around them got tiring pretty quick. Having to go through that huge map several times was kind of a chore, I feel like it would've been better if there was a minimap or an arrow that at least points to where the next exit/loop is. Having different guns or enemies would spice up the combat a bit, even if it was just one more gun and a stationary, projectile shooting enemy. Overall though good work! |
| Oct 9 09:25:11 | 15m 44s | Hamster Dash | ♥ 1 | Cool game, fits well with the theme. I think having something like variable jumping would improve the feel of the game, the jumping feels a little clunky/slow. It reminds me of nyan cat for some reason XD The levels are cool and the mechanics in each add plenty of variation to the levels. I can see this being expanded and improved upon into a full game. Good job! Also, if you're starting off as a dev and want to start making friends then I recommend making a Twitter and posting some dev stuff on there. That's how I started years ago and I've met some great people! |
| Oct 9 09:57:26 | 32m 15s | Amusement Shark | ♥ 1 | Nice puzzle game. Good art and nice chill music(though it gets repetitive.) I kept exploiting the iframes when you take damage to speed through a lot of the tougher sections lol but the levels were cool overall. I never felt like any of them were too challenging or hard to get through. Having a timer at the end for your total time is a nice touch, it makes the player want to go fast even though the game seems pretty casual. Adding a couple extra mechanics, like something that speeds up/slows down the rotation would be cool too and would allow for even more levels. Nice work! |
| Oct 9 10:11:20 | 13m 54s | Get in the Loop! | ♥ 1 | This is so dark so why am I laughing lol Somehow I managed to beat it on my 2nd try, and pretty quick at that! Weirdly fun for it being 4 buttons that don't do what I want half the time. Also anime girls in games is always a plus. StuckInALoopLD47.png |
| Oct 13 23:30:36 | 109h 19m | Loopsed In Space | ♥ 0 | Neat little game, could do with some more actual gameplay. Maybe letting the player move up and down or letting them loop to the other side of the screen would let you throw more asteroids in and have them do more dodging. Collected some coins but the shops prices are insane. Maybe have more coins and asteroids spawn the longer the player has survived or something. |
| Oct 14 02:55:03 | 3h 24m | Storm Chaser(Fixedlink) | ♥ 1 | Good attempt at a game. There's not much in terms of gameplay but most of it seems to work. Having different obstacles or looping the player but having more obstacles spawn each time would make it more interesting. |
| Oct 14 19:41:54 | 16h 46m | ReReReSpawn | ♥ 1 | Really cool idea! My best strategy was to go left and have a few me's shooting at all the enemies as they slowly approach. I would love some different weapons or a couple levels with varying enemy spawns so the player has to plan out their routes more, but the game is great as it is! Also love the neon glow effect. Nice work! |
| Oct 14 20:00:29 | 18m 35s | Rogue Pickup | ♥ 0 | Ramming zombies is more fun than I thought it'd be. I'm not sure if the bars on the left do anything, they seem to be static for me. I like getting a bunch of gas and then speeding through the zombies at max speed. Adding some challenge to this would improve it, I think. Maybe you have a time limit and have to kill as many zombies as possible. Maybe the player has to hit checkpoints around the map whilst avoiding zombies. Maybe just add a score so the player has something they want to beat or get a lot of. |
| Oct 14 20:17:45 | 17m 16s | Resurrection | ♥ 1 | Cool use of the theme, but the gameplay is just meh. I like that there's 3 different types of gameplay, but I think having one good system is better than throwing in 3 weak ones. I was disappointed when I beat the game and tried again, hoping the loop would change or add something, anything. But the loops are exactly the same. |
| Oct 14 20:27:51 | 10m 06s | Stuck in a TIME loop | ♥ 1 | I'm sure you can beat this but the colliders and jumping is so weird that I can only get about halfway before I end up looping. I tried about 20 or so times and couldn't even see the goal. Cool idea since you're trying to escape or beat the loop. |
| Oct 15 06:08:48 | 9h 40m | In a Globe of Death | ♥ 0 | Simple game but kinda fun. Wish there were more mechanics to play around with. As it is it takes less than 30 seconds to get all the way through and experience the whole game. |
| Oct 15 06:24:57 | 16m 09s | Spaghetti Quest | ♥ 1 | I love everything about this lol from the voices to the music to the silly gameplay. Everything is so stereotypical Italian and its great lol Great work! |
| Oct 15 09:08:14 | 2h 43m | Once More, Through the Desert | ♥ 2 | Cool game, I liked how the story was incorporated with the theme. After looping a long time I realized that I was dying of thirst(doesn't help that I can't make the screen bigger so I can hardly see anything.) After that I kept trying to not die but after about a dozen tries I gave up. Nice work overall! |
| Oct 15 09:55:13 | 46m 59s | Without My Arms | ♥ 1 | More disturbing than I was expecting lol nice job though! Pretty challenging, though if you wanted to avoid that you could've added checkpoints or something. The gameplay is simple but works really well and is fun. Good work! |
| Oct 15 21:41:17 | 11h 46m | Stuck in a Loop (station) | ♥ 3 | Really cool game! Great that it's not just a puzzle game and not just a music based game. The mix of both makes it very enjoyable. I didn't get through all the puzzles but it was fun exploring that and the sandbox mode for a bit. I'm awful at making any kind of music but an attempt was made StuckInALoopboxSandbox.png |
| Oct 21 08:36:31 | 130h 55m | Space Loop | ♥ 1 | Cool use of the theme and a nice take on Breakout! It does get difficult pretty quickly. My main strategy was trying to aim the shots between the blocks so they'd bounce around inside and hit a bunch before flying out. Having something like powerups that make the balls do more damage or increase their speed or size would make things more interesting. Overall good entry! |
