Apr 27 12:19:58 Rooted ♥ 1 Thought this was a great game, very innovative! Only feedback I would have is that I found it a bit tricky to spot the minerals in the ground, perhaps just need slightly more contrast. Overall very good though!
Apr 27 12:28:46 8m 48s End of my Rope ♥ 1 Love this concept of this, enjoyed the idea of having the bow as your main interaction with the world. Also thought the 3D effect was really neat. For some reason the audio didn't play properly for me though. The other feedback I had was the that the rope mechanics could have been a bit smoother. Overall really enjoyed it though!
Apr 27 12:35:26 6m 40s Ropedive ♥ 1 Thought this was really good, love a game with a simple mechanic that takes a while to master! Only feedback I have is that I found the game a bit small, probably just my eyesight though! Thought the atmosphere and music of the game was really nice too, very immersive.
Apr 27 14:42:04 2h 06m Deep Mine Time ♥ 1 I like this! It's a simple concept which I think has quite a lot of roof for potential if you develop it further. A future improvement could be to be able to mine just with the keyboard and directional arrows instead of the mouse (Actually spent a while trying to find the correct key to mine with!). Overall enjoyed this though!
Apr 27 14:54:46 12m 42s Blue Eye - Salvage & Rescue ♥ 1 I really like the feel of this game, really feels like you're going down deep underwater. It took me quite a few attempts to figure out what I was supposed to be doing, especially with the battery level. The first time I ran out of battery and couldn't move I actually thought it was a bug. Think once the UI is improved slightly it could be a really good game!
Apr 27 15:02:24 7m 38s Manic Miner ♥ 0 Really like this game, has a real sense of urgency to get down! Loved the fact that the air decreased in realtime whilst the movements are turn based. Think something that might be cool would be to have certain blocks you can't mine through
Apr 27 15:47:52 45m 28s The Deep Caverns ♥ 1 I like this game, think it's got a lot of potential. It took me a long while to figure out I had to stand on the resource to mine it, expected shooting it to do something - just needs some sort of visual feedback I think. Overall really liked it though!
Apr 27 16:10:30 22m 38s Love Under the Robot Junkyard ♥ 1 Like it! Took me a while to figure out that my battery was decreasing, but once I'd got that sorted it was a really nice experience. Somehow a very pretty game even though it's just ASCII art!
Apr 27 21:13:25 5h 02m More than Deep ♥ 1 Just gave this one a go and enjoyed it, got past 1000m before crashing! I think something that would make it more fun would be to gradually increase the speed as you go down to add more of a challenge.
Apr 28 17:52:40 20h 39m Plunge ♥ 1 This is definitely one of the more fun games I've played so far, the fact that your speed determines whether you'll break the white blocks is a really cool mechanic. The whole game is perfect for a game jam too, short, quick and easy to get into. I agree with a few of the other comment that the bouncing takes you out of the action a bit, the sudden stop is a bit jarring and I found myself disappointed because I just want to go fast! Tried your updated version and it's definitely an improvement. It's a bit annoying when you die to a red brick off screen too, but don't know whether you should change that or not! Other that that the only other suggestion I have is to show my previous best time once I complete the level (or furthest distance if you've never completed it) - just so I know what my record is to beat! Overall, very enjoyable game though!
Apr 28 18:03:08 10m 28s SlappyBird ♥ 1 Love this idea of this game, but I found a lot of the time I couldn't see the enemies and I was dying to something I never saw which was slightly frustrating. I think perhaps some health system, or a warning that there's an enemy above somehow would really improve it. Overall enjoyed it though!
