| Oct 6 15:40:35 | Orbital Blast | ♥ 1 | Nice entry. I have to agree with @nobleboy and say that I wasn't a fan of the keyboard controls. I didn't find it particularly intuitive to control although I could understand how they work. As keyboard was your preferred way to play the game was balance around that making the mouse controls too easy. But really controls shouldn't be what determines a games difficulty. I was using the web version and found the main menu button after dying rather unreliable. Sometimes I would have to refresh the page to reset. The music loops were a nice addition and the sound effects did their job. More variety, as you have mention, would of been a really nice improvement but of course I understand the time restrictions we all face. Overall it is a fun concept with a nice amount of replayablity. A good little time waster for 5-10 minutes here or there. | |
| Oct 6 16:09:53 | 29m 18s | Stuck in a loop | ♥ 1 | 11 attempts for me, got blown up straight away on my first. Fire rate was my favourite power up. I found the game really fun to play. I think the difficulty and progression were just right to keep someone playing until they beat it without getting bored or frustrated. The graphics and sound were simple but did the trick well enough. They would be an obvious area of improvement. The UI also could have been a bit more than just plain text and it also overlapped the gameplay area. However none of these really impacted my enjoyment of the game. |
| Oct 6 16:23:50 | 13m 57s | All the same | ♥ 1 | Really nice and refreshing to play something like this. You did a great job with building the atmosphere of the game. Loved the sounds, the pace and the text. |
| Oct 6 23:29:11 | 7h 05m | Loopst | ♥ 1 | A good puzzler. I must admit I got stuck on the last level. Nevertheless I much enjoyed finding the solutions to the previous levels. |
| Oct 6 23:58:59 | 29m 48s | Beet Roots | ♥ 0 | Definitely a strong lemmings vibe as others have said. The mouse camera movement was a little weird for me. I would have preferred hold and drag style but once I got used to it it was fine. Music loop was really nice and catchy. A fast forward button would have also been nice. |
| Oct 7 17:44:04 | 17h 45m | Are We There Yet? | ♥ 1 | The voice acting and story were well worth the effort you put into the them. It really made the game for me. I think that after a few screens the levels got a pretty repetitive, there were only really about 3 styles of obstacle with some minor variations. It would have been good to see a little more variety. Also there wasn't much incentive to not just play it safe and use the lowest speed for most of the game. Perhaps a timer alongside the repair cost would have been nice. Nevertheless I had a good time with it and think you will place well in audio and humour in particular. |
| Oct 7 17:48:20 | 4m 16s | Human Generator | ♥ 1 | Found it pretty satisfying whilst it lasted |
| Oct 7 18:14:17 | 25m 57s | Ribbon | ♥ 2 | Really awesome idea and a well put together demo of them. Just a shame about the length but I understand it probably took a lot of time to get this working and looking as good as it did. Definitely worth expanding on as a future project. |
| Oct 9 19:40:04 | 49h 25m | Suburban Bus MAYHEM | ♥ 1 | Good game overall. I feel like the controls could have been a little tighter, perhaps if the acceleration was slightly dampened. But the crazy feeling of the driving could have been intended. You also seemed to rotate in the opposite direction slowly if you held a or d whilst not moving. |
| Oct 9 19:48:05 | 8m 01s | RESET HOOLIGANS | ♥ 0 | Great concept, I wish there were more levels or more stuff to play with in each. Honestly a really fresh idea. Watching the two people fly of the rotating restaurant was super funny, I had to do it a couple of times. I didn't find it difficult or confusing as some people have said once I had grasped the concept. Took maybe 5 minutes to get to the end. |
| Oct 9 20:11:20 | 23m 15s | The Toroidal Tower | ♥ 1 | Really nice, don't think I can even think of any complaints. It was a really neat and polished experience. It did feel a little repetitive at times but that's more down to my inability to solve problems. |
| Oct 9 20:21:57 | 10m 37s | Countercl0ckwise | ♥ 1 | Nice game. I found a pretty easy solution in the end. Ride the long block around by holding left then when you drop from the top you miss all the red blocks and get caught by it again. It was cool to try and come up with different patterns or solutions that could work. |
