Oct 4 23:42:38 Prelude to a Squish ♥ 0 Not really much to do here but the music is nice to listen to. I eventually pressed left a little too long, shot my ball out of the screen and wasn't able to find it again.
Oct 4 23:50:27 7m 49s Determined To Die ♥ 0 Very nice game! Love the random ragdolls flying over the place sometimes and the fast forward button really enhanced the experience. It's a bit short but still super entertaining to play!
Oct 4 23:57:39 7m 12s Repeat Robot ♥ 0 It's so satisfying seeing your robot army execute the plan you carefully set up over several iterations. I had no technical hiccups and the levels had a good size and difficulty. I really wish there were more levels but hey, this is Compo :D You could totally expand this in the future though!
Oct 5 00:06:24 8m 45s SORO BORO ♥ 5 Amazing graphics! Especially for a compo game! Since I'm playing on a QWERTZ keyboard the controls took some time to get used to but weren't impossible to manage. The rocket launcher feels solid and the rockets are very satisfying to use. Had a lot of fun with your game, good job! :D
Oct 5 00:10:53 4m 29s Dinosaur Game Level 1 ♥ 1 The This Is The Only Level vibes are strong with this one :D Since I have played This Is The Only Level, a lot of the gimmicks were familiar to me. I can see this game as really confusing to people who havent played that though. I'd suggest adding hints about what is happening in each stage to give players a clue about what's going on.
Oct 5 00:24:07 13m 14s TimeBot ♥ 1 Nice graphics, intuitive controls, the levels were fun but you had to think a bit here and there. It feels so satisfying to beat the final level as well :D Good job!
Oct 5 00:31:23 7m 16s Infinite Pinball ♥ 1 My first run was a 3:48 :D Sometimes the ball went into hyperspace but I didn't see that as a negative thing. It was nice to build up points quickly. The multipliers stacking is also nice. The theme integration is really nice, even though now you can't technically lose. The sound design was pretty as well, so getting huge chains was extra cool. As mentioned before, the flippers are a bit weak to feel impactful. That is my only complaint though :D
Oct 5 10:00:49 9h 29m Deep Stranded ♥ 0 That Among Us reference :D Nice little game. I like the sprites and the beacon effect was simple but worked perfectly. The soundtrack fits really nicely as well. The O2 pickups are very nicely balanced where you can miss one but it's not super easy to get back to high oxygen levels. If there is an ending I wasn't able to get it. I played to ~2200 Points and nothing happened, so I assume it's an endless game. Very relaxing and calm though, good job!
Oct 5 10:09:02 8m 13s Station 8 ♥ 0 The first robot that charged me actually startled me :D Very atmospheric FPS. Baiting robots one by one and shooting them is very satisfying and the stealth factor in this game is really good. The models are very nice and simple, the atmospheric soundtrack fits the scene. As mentioned in the first review though, the Easy setting is already really hard. I ran out of ammo really fast and eventually just ran through the level to win.
Oct 5 10:17:51 8m 49s SPACE TAXI ♥ 1 Good take on the theme! Racing yourself is always a nice concept and it works very well here. Also I love that the earth is a physics object you can collide with :D One problem I see is that you can inflate your score a lot by going slow on purpose the first few rounds. Also it feels a bit unfair when you beat your past self by a tiny amount but still lose because of the 3 second countdown. You could introduce a general time limit to the game to counter the intentional slow strategy.
Oct 5 11:11:06 53m 15s Minion Madness ♥ 0 I think this has really good potential! Running away from the rising water was somehow funny every time it happened :D However, a bit more visual feedback of what's happening would be nice. I was never sure if my minions actually did what I wanted them to do. This could be fixed by just adding some animations for the different activities. Otherwise, this is really impressive, especially for a compo game! Good job!
Oct 7 22:08:18 58h 57m Back And Forth ♥ 1 Hi ^^ I played your game in my livestream today, you can watch my reaction here: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=719 Very solid game, love the artstyle and the puzzles even if I couldn't solve some of them ^^
Oct 7 22:09:27 1m 09s Escape the Sun ♥ 3 Heya :D I played this in my livestream today. You can rewatch my reaction here: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=2014 Damn that sun is scary :D
Oct 7 22:10:43 1m 16s Rewind Dungeon ♥ 1 Hi! I played this in my livestream today, you can watch my reaction to your game here: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=3231 Please keep working on this. This game has so much potential :D
Oct 7 22:11:46 1m 03s Colorful Memories ♥ 2 Heya! I played your game live today, here is the VOD: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=4401 Super pretty game, love the voxel art! Really good work!
Oct 7 22:13:18 1m 32s StackOverflow ♥ 1 Hi! I played your game in my livestream today, here is my reaction: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=5975 ...I was fooled for way too long by this.
Oct 7 22:14:27 1m 09s Into the Iron Mist ♥ 1 Hi! I played your game live today, you can watch the VOD here: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=6623 this is probably my favorite game of the jam so far. It looks so nice and plays so smooth, its insane! :D
Oct 7 22:15:46 1m 19s Time Saver ♥ 3 Hi! I played your game during my livestream today. You can find my reaction here: https://youtu.be/XGmb_ZrYFFo?t=8584 Very nice platformer. Takes a while to get into but super satisfying once you master the controls :D
Oct 7 22:19:42 3m 56s F Minus 1 ♥ 1 Loved the aesthetics in this. Induces a very 80s feeling in me. The AI is way too good though, I had no chance of catching up once they started flying away ^^
Oct 7 22:24:17 4m 35s Stuck in a Loop ♥ 1 Love the weapons! My favorite has to be the record, it's just so versatile :D The music is very nice and the aesthetics fit the game. Controls were also great. I felt the game was a bit too easy though. I was able to plow through enemies like they weren't even there ^^
Oct 7 22:28:47 4m 30s The Fire Case ♥ 2 Very nice graphics, the ambient sounds fit very well into the game. The controls are a bit weird though. You lose all control over your character when you jump, making it very hard to jump precisely. Other than that, very nice game!
Oct 7 22:36:29 7m 42s Catnap ♥ 1 Super nice art! Took me a while to understand what I was doing though ^^ Controls are very nice and responsive, falling asleep takes a bit too long though in my opinion. Half of the time I just stood around waiting to fall asleep. Other than that, awesome work!
Oct 7 22:44:07 7m 38s Framed Space ♥ 1 Super impressive game for such a small timespan! Took me a while to understand the mechanics but they have a lot of potential! You could definitely expand on this! However, I eventually got stuck in a block and couldn't get out. The collision in general is a bit weird. Since you started so late that is understandable though. Good job!
Oct 13 15:11:11 136h 27m Ouroboros ♥ 1 We met in a stream chat a few days ago and I promised to TAS this :D Welp, here it is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z1c0j9U88U Really impressive that this actually works on an actual NES. Absolutely love this.
