Oct 10 05:25:05 Damn This Plane! ♥ 1 I enjoyed this game, but I do agree that it is a bit difficult. I was not able to get more than 400 points after playing it several times. I liked the audio that you included and thought that it fit the game very well.
Oct 10 16:01:04 10h 35m Woofice Chair! ♥ 3 An interesting and funny take on the theme. It took me a bit to realize that you can also move the chair around while spinning, so I was just getting pushed by the pigeons. The audio fit very well and was quite interesting. I like the different pitched whistles when you hover on a button. As a side note, I did find that the game crashes if you hit ESC while on the main menu.
Oct 10 16:12:07 11m 03s Evo-loop-tion | Ludum Dare 47 ♥ 1 I feel that this game needs a lot of polishing touches. It is not clear in the first level that you must also use the mouse to play. I didn't figure that out until reading the comments. It is rather jarring to have the music restart when the level restarts, considering that the first level is only 4 seconds long. There are issues with collision detection as the character can get stuck on the end of platforms. I couldn't figure out the maze level either, but I have now read in the comments that you have to use the arrow keys instead of WASD. Why switch? Finally, when restarting the maze level (the last one I tried), why does it go back to the previous level instead of resetting to the maze when every other level just restarts itself? Having said all that, these are all things that could just be tweaked a little and likely wouldn't take much to fix. I did like the concept and am actually okay with the exploratory nature of discovering controls as long as they don't change once I have discovered them. Perhaps adding a hint that appears after the player has failed a certain number of times? Regardless, the important part is finishing the game. The rest is just growth!
Oct 10 16:40:04 27m 57s Chronometry ♥ 1 I enjoyed the puzzles a lot. It was also a very interesting use of the theme, and the whole game kept me wanting to play. Missed audio, though, even if just just bleeps and bloops. Nice entry overall.
