Oct 6 01:10:42 RESCUE ATTEMPT #[REDACTED] ♥ 1 Love that you picked a simple palette - the game looks beautiful and unified. Being able to run increases the fun and the cape flying looks great. Glad there's a little something special at the end. Took me a while to get used to the controls, I think W for jump would be more intuitive (maybe something to add later). I liked how you worked with the stuck in a loop concept. Overall enjoyed the game, thanks!
Oct 7 01:56:01 24h 45m SORO BORO ♥ 3 Thanks for making a post-jam version with up-arrow jump! Way easier to play with right hand on the arrows and left just to shoot, I found. It's really a fun addicting puzzle, so far I got about five levels in with the memory aspect but then gave up (it's a good challenge though). Yeah, the music and graphics are great, and the animations. Thought you used the "stuck in a loop" idea pretty cleverly too. Amazing job for a compo submission!
Oct 7 02:03:10 7m 09s Purgatory is a Music Store ♥ 4 It's really magical how I played along and felt like I was being so musical. I love the story, reminds me of The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask for the little stories when you listen to someone reflect on their life and find peace. It's emotional but still really uplifting (literally, haha!). I appreciated how genders were left ambiguous, I think that's great so the game feels welcoming and fitting for anyone. Overall a lovely experience, congrats! Edit: Forgot to mention reminds me of Wandersong too, with the colourful music making (great!)
Oct 7 02:15:24 12m 14s Rock Wrangler ♥ 1 I liked the scribbles for when the planets explode! It's pretty satisfying to fling the rocks. I found the planets' gravity pulls threw me off (there's the challenge). Thought it was a pretty creative loop concept too, and the inset corner map for an overview was a nice touch, very useful. Great job
Oct 10 00:34:33 70h 19m Stuck in a Loop ♥ 1 I like the character and atmosphere. I wasn't able to get the code for door E though, in downloaded Windows or in browser, seems to be a bug. Too bad since it looked like there were more fun puzzles to come!
Oct 10 00:45:24 10m 51s Resurrection ♥ 1 Creative take on the stuck in a loop idea. The gameplay was a bit too simple I think, and kind of slow. At first I thought I was bread, then a Nutty Putty character (like, the kids clay toy thing), then I figured out I was some kind of seed. So bonus points for good humor!
Oct 15 22:46:56 142h 01m Moby's Trip ♥ 3 Great game, plays well! Very appealing aesthetic. Addicting to get a better score on that scoreboard. Pretty amazing for a game jam.
Oct 15 23:15:01 28m 05s Hung On Justice ♥ 1 Great aesthetic overall, and a unique idea for the theme. I like the choice to show people as shadows. Having a tutorial at the beginning is always a good choice! The music was good and speeding it up occasionally worked well. It's pretty violent & gory to me personally but overall a very well done game, especially for a jam!
Oct 17 02:47:57 27h 32m Fancy Trash ♥ 3 Really fun game concept, and good execution! Love how the music actually goes around to a lot of different instruments, including harpsichord, that's pretty impressive instead of one simple little loop. Had a chuckle about how this fit the theme. Great work!
Oct 19 03:15:08 48h 27m Wage Slave ♥ 0 Kind of a dark dry humor in this, the lack of clarity about how and what to do was meant to be part of the fun I think. I don't drink coffee and have never worked in a place like that so I had no clue - sorry to the always displeased customers! =P
Oct 19 22:26:23 19h 11m Billy Vanilly & The Navigators ♥ 2 Strong art and music and overall "story"! I wasn't sure what the arrow colours meant (where does blue fit in the good to bad scale?) or what the contraption at the bottom was about, maybe adding some temporary pop up text or crowd cheers or boos or something would clarify. I wanted to get the right colours and hear more of the music but it seemed pretty tricky. I liked the band characters, very creative!
Oct 27 01:01:17 170h 34m Progress. ♥ 1 I enjoyed the atmosphere and message. The respawns/messages were too annoyingly slow, wouldn't been nice if they could be skipped, maybe after a certain point (or maybe that could be an ability that gets added part way?). I thought the game was broken at the beginning, but then felt smart when I figured it out lol. Overall great job! Edit: Should you omit "Audio" as a category? It sounded great but based on the credits sounds like it wasn't original/ made for the jam game.
