Apr 27 12:01:24		Low Notes	♥ 1	A really nice concept and a smart way to tie it to the theme. Presentation felt very polished. As a jam game I also liked that you made it very lenient. If this were any other rhythm game I would have gotten totally destroyed. Great job all around.
Apr 27 12:42:37	41m 13s	Fly Away	♥ 1	Not being able to move sideways gives the controls a unique feel where movement relies a lot on the mouse. I needed to crank my mouse sensitivity way up for this. Diving down at full speed feels great. Wish you could see a little bit more behind the player when looking down. Also found that you can end up outside the sinkhole if you hold forward while respawning. Not a big deal but thought I'd mention.
Apr 27 13:17:05	34m 28s	Shoot 'em Down	♥ 1	I knew I couldn't be the only one making a SHMUP... well a SHMD. The opening dialog was great and so was the gameplay. Although I gotta admit it's too hard for me. Which was mostly due to the size of the ship's hitbox. Usually in SHMUP's the player hitbox is a lot smaller than the ship. Also big props for the audio and UI design.
Apr 27 14:59:13	1h 42m	To The Core	♥ 1	The graphics of the game were really great. The dim environments gave the game a good underground ambience. The slowdowns felt odd at the beginning but they were a good choice for making it easier to land those tricky portal shots.
Apr 27 15:18:44	19m 31s	Crumbling Caves	♥ 2	I like how you need to go fast because of the time but need to slowdown to get the map pieces. It creates a lot on tension to the gameplay and prevents rushing through all the rooms.
Apr 27 16:27:20	1h 08m	FallBot	♥ 2	Simple yet very fun and addicting. Same goes for the graphics: very simple but very pleasing. Only thing this game lacked was some ambient sounds to fill the silence.
Apr 27 20:59:40	4h 32m	Reaper	♥ 2	Throwing the scythe felt great. I also like that you get a chance to save yourself with the teleport.
Apr 27 21:14:15	14m 35s	Color Bomb	♥ 0	I really liked the light throwing as a game mechanic. Although I would limit it somehow so you couldn't spam it.
Apr 27 22:17:17	1h 03m	Deep Dream	♥ 1	This is a really cool concept.
Apr 28 12:21:04	14h 03m	Deep Space Drill	♥ 0	This is a really solid Shoot 'em Up and I really hope this gets developed further. The feel of the game is great. The sounds and visuals work really well together to create that retro style. The streak system is a nice way to reward good play. Also the way the enemies move into the view feels somehow really satisfyingly. Only criticism I have is that there is sometimes a lot of downtime between waves.
Apr 28 17:04:45	4h 43m	deep madness	♥ 1	The game concept is simple and fun and the art is great. There were some bugs with the character getting stuck on the wall and with the music starting another time on top of the first when you lose.
Apr 28 20:20:15	3h 15m	Dig Deeper	♥ 0	Really fun and addicting gameplay. I like that you can get yourself out of a bad situation by jumping ahead 4 blocks. Although I wish it would mine the block you land on so you could line it up to get more charge. I found a out that if you press space in the "try again" screen, the scores starts to go up again. Luckily it's a bug that doesn't get in the way of the game.
Apr 29 12:29:35	16h 09m	Submarine Salvage	♥ 1	This game feels really polished and is a lot of fun. I hope this gets expanded upon.
Apr 29 13:23:25	53m 50s	Deep in the Moon	♥ 0	Really solid entry. Personally I liked the addition of a tech tree to add depth to the game.
May 1 14:12:18	48h 48m	The Great Machine	♥ 1	I really liked the pickaxe throwing.
May 1 15:07:30	55m 12s	ICECUBE: On a misson	♥ 1	Overall a fun little platformer.
May 2 15:07:44	24h 00m	Mars Cave Explorer	♥ 0	The controls take time to get used to but once I did, they felt great.
May 2 15:26:34	18m 50s	What Lies Below	♥ 1	This is a great game. The music really sells the underwater mood. Really liked the art on the ships and the artefacts. Liked the progression system too.
May 2 15:45:13	18m 39s	That Movie You Watched in Science Class...	♥ 1	A simple and fun game. Finding the fastest routes is a lot of fun.
May 4 10:03:08	42h 17m	A Dungeon	♥ 1	Really good platformer with excellent pixel art. The jump physics felt good. Spikes were well color coded so it's easy to know what kills you. I only had problems with the blind jumps which seemed to be abundant.
May 4 10:34:42	31m 34s	HELL deep is your love?	♥ 5	Hard but fun. I wish you could see more of the stage at all times. The view felt too zoomed in.
May 4 11:00:06	25m 24s	Blackout	♥ 6	I feel like point-n-clicks are hard to pull of well. They can be so frustrating if not well designed. But I think this game pulled it off really well. The art and music are really great and create this ominous mood. I love it!
May 4 11:15:08	15m 02s	Unto the Eight	♥ 2	I really liked the game. The art and music are really good and the gameplay mechanics are unique. I found the cold damage very unforgiving and it really forced me to rush through.
May 4 11:49:11	34m 03s	River, Carry Me Away	♥ 5	Art and music are really great but the gameplay is very minimal. Almost felt like a movie.
May 4 12:11:41	22m 30s	Dungeon Depths	♥ 1	Really cool rope physics that make for a great gameplay mechanic. Took a while to get use to the controls but once I did, it felt good.
May 4 14:38:38	2h 26m	Cavebop	♥ 1	Fun puzzle game. I like how you gain more knowledge of the puzzle by digging around and once you have enough, you can get to the end. The game was maybe a bit easy. Many of the stages were undermined by the fact that you can just dig straight down and find the goal once you're at the bottom. But I liked trying to find routes with the least moves. So maybe some kind of ranking for the amount of moves taken would work with this sort of game.
