| Oct 6 18:47:26 | iLoop - the 2D endless runner game of a robot stuck in a loop :) | ♥ 1 | A well executed infinite runner. Having animations and music for each menu is a great idea ! You have audio feedback when you get hit but i would have liked to have visual feedback too. The hitboxes seem to be a bit large and square shaped which is a bit unpredictable at first on some ennemies. Great work ! | |
| Oct 6 19:00:27 | 13m 01s | Keep moving and nobody burns | ♥ 3 | The animations in the menu and in the game look good. The controls feel a bit weird, it seems like it's dropping input sometimes. Regarding the game, it's a bit frustrating when loot is unreachable because a block spawned after it appeared, but it's a great idea otherwise. A music would have really improved the experience but i know the struggles of adding sounds when using a custom engine. Very nice for a first jam ! Oh, and I get these in the console if it can help you : "Failed to parse SPIR-V code: UnsupportedBuiltIn(4)" "Shader will not be validated", 4 times each when launching the game. |
| Oct 6 19:11:13 | 10m 46s | Keep Inside | ♥ 1 | A great minimalist game. The counter and the circle twisting are great visual touches. A menu and a calm background music would have really improved the experience. Visual feedback would have been great to know when the ball bounces, i still don't know if the smaller pad is purely a magnet or if balls can bounce on it. You could improve variety by spawning the ball in a random spot / direction around the player. You could have added power-ups / interactions to break the monotony as it gets a bit easy when the ball starts consistently going clockwise / counter-clockwise. Even if it does not look finished, it's a great start for a game ! |
| Oct 6 19:39:48 | 28m 35s | LOOPOST | ♥ 7 | You have a great hand-drawn aesthetics. It's nice to have a little story and introduction as it's not very common in jam games, and there is a nice bit of humor in the dialogues ! The background music is great and does not feel repetitive. I really liked your game, it was very original ! |
| Oct 6 19:50:16 | 10m 28s | Machine Learning | ♥ 1 | The dialogues work well and the story is funny. I would have liked a few more rooms an a few additional riddles or minigames. An ending / reset screen would have been great. Nice game ! |
| Oct 6 19:58:48 | 8m 32s | EvoLoop | ♥ 3 | I have to agree with the others, it's a bit sad that there is no explanation of what to do in your game here or directly in the game. The music is great though ! |
| Oct 6 20:01:09 | 2m 21s | Infinite Loop | ♥ 1 | The idea is great and very original although not very accessible as non-programmers will have a hard time understanding what your game is about. There are only three puzzles which is a bit short but i liked the concept. |
| Oct 6 21:18:38 | 1h 17m | Astro Juice - (DING ESPM-RJ) | ♥ 2 | The graphics are great ! The menu is very functional. The puzzle aspect was nice but it was a bit frustrating to have to cycle back to the same color as the transformations are slow. A nice addition would be to have a quick switch between colors when dying. The sounds are fitting the game's cuteness. Great game ! |
| Oct 6 21:29:16 | 10m 38s | Quantum Loops | ♥ 1 | The concept is a bit obscure and i had a bit of difficulty understanding what was going on, but the game was quite fun when i understood it finally. As you already have a textual tutorial, you could always indicate that you need to draw something with the mouse. You could also reduce the size of what the user has to read or have some orbiting things around to make it more attractive. The sounds and background music were very fitting. A great game overall ! Hats off to you for making it with your custom engine. |
| Oct 6 21:37:09 | 7m 53s | Endless Orbit | ♥ 0 | I tried to play the Linux build of the game but it seems that the games does not register any input. Let me know if you update it so that i can give you feedback and a rating ! |
| Oct 6 21:56:51 | 19m 42s | Permafrost Pirouette | ♥ 1 | The game feels nice to control and play. The concept is very original, i don't think i have ever played a spinning top battle game. The music really fits the frantic gameplay. Nice entry ! |
| Oct 6 22:28:02 | 31m 11s | Beware, space! | ♥ 1 | The game seems great but i can't figure out how to play. It would be nice to have a bit more explanations. |
| Oct 6 22:32:59 | 4m 57s | The infinity - Pool bar | ♥ 1 | The game is a bit strange and the mouse controls are hard but you nailed the theme. The models are great but you really need some kind of shadows so that the players can understand how the space is organized. Good concept ! |
| Oct 6 22:40:30 | 7m 31s | Bizzare Adventures of an Ordinary Dude | ♥ 1 | The concept is really nice. The automatic camera is surprising at first but it works very well because of how the world is organized. The text was not always very readable because of the color but it's an easy fix. Nice original entry ! |
| Oct 7 17:28:22 | 18h 47m | Aztec Ride | ♥ 3 | Really nice graphics and music that make a coherent whole. The game concept is very original. Nice work ! |
| Oct 7 17:51:04 | 22m 42s | Active Cell | ♥ 2 | We had the same idea ! Our game has different mechanics than you do but the concept is the same. Very nice to see another interpretation of the same idea. The game is great ! |
| Oct 7 17:58:40 | 7m 36s | Into the Portal | ♥ 1 | The music is nice and the visuals are simple but it makes it easy to understand what's going on. The game looks fun but the weapon spread is so frustrating, i can't hit enemies even when very close to them. Nice entry. |
| Oct 7 19:38:13 | 1h 39m | Pacxit | ♥ 1 | The music is very enticing which is important when playing a game like that. Using music variations in that way is very clever, you are kind of triangulating the exit position depending on the volume of the music. The pitch and distortion effects are very useful to find the exit but i had more trouble identifying the two others. Very original entry, i liked it a lot ! |
| Oct 7 19:45:28 | 7m 15s | Resurrection | ♥ 0 | The musics are awesome and the visuals are very original. A lot of different mini-games, not all perfect, but very coherent as a whole and they fit the story well. A great game ! |
| Oct 7 19:51:14 | 5m 46s | Escape From Rotting Town | ♥ 1 | The character animations / controls feel are a bit stiff. The background music is great to set the tone of the game and the visuals have a nice vintage touch. Not sure how much it fits the theme but it's a great start for a game. |
| Oct 7 20:00:38 | 9m 24s | Time Wizard | ♥ 1 | I tried the Linux version. The directions and rotation controls worked fine but it seems that i could not use a spell. I think your intent was to make a game similar to minit which seemed like a good idea given the theme. The visuals are simple but make a coherent whole. This looks like an interesting game but from my experience and the other comments it looks like you need to do some more tests and explain the gameplay a little more next time. Keep trying ! |
| Oct 20 11:34:45 | 303h 34m | Knights of the Round Torus | ♥ 0 | Really nice entry ! |
