| Apr 27 12:53:48 | Deep into the Volcano | ♥ 3 | After figuring out the controls, and that the jetpack ran out of gas, the game was very fun and a good challenge. It felt fun to play, although I admit I never used the wall grab, but that didnt keep me from winning. Also the music and sound effects were nice. | |
| Apr 27 14:47:09 | 1h 53m | Submortem | ♥ 4 | I also did not win my first playthrough, and it took me a while to find the captain's room key, but I was able to find it. It was a lot of fun, with truly impressive art, and a wide range of systems. This was very impressive. I also enjoyed the fish swimming outside the windows. |
| Apr 27 15:11:50 | 24m 41s | Worm Rampage | ♥ 2 | The controls worked very well, and it was very intuitive to play. I think I only got hit twice while playing. I lost my last tail piece, and I got studded from hitting the head. I wasnt sure what being stun changed, since you couldn't change your trajectory mid-air anyway. |
| Apr 27 16:51:08 | 1h 39m | Elemantic | ♥ 2 | The graphics and animation in this were astounding! I enjoyed the gameplay, I beat the final boss with only a little bit of health left. I think sound effects for the spells and damage would have gone a long way to making this feel more complete. Also a powerup for increased range would have been fun. |
| Apr 27 17:20:46 | 29m 38s | Little Mother | ♥ 1 | Absolutely beautiful! The story was very strong and the visuals and sound reinforced it the whole way, so it was very impactful. There wasnt really much gameplay other than moving around a rock or a pond, but it was not tedious because of the visual diversity. I really enjoyed it. |
| Apr 27 17:38:17 | 17m 31s | Double Bubble | ♥ 4 | Really fun game. On 5th try I finally made it down to the skull depth, and made it to 22700 before finally dying. The music is fun, the visuals all work really well together, and it is appropriately challenging. I wish the transition from zone1 to zone 2 was faded so it is not so jarring, but the other transitions were fine. I loved the lighting effects when the jellyfish would glow in the dark. |
| Apr 27 18:29:41 | 51m 24s | Whatever It takes | ♥ 1 | I played it both in browser and on windows. Sometimes it would duplicate the music when it started the game. Also on windows, somehow my player got faster at some point, where I could move left and right very quickly. Restarting the game didnt even fix it. The layer switching was interesting, but I found it difficult knowing what was on each layer. Maybe a color filter or something might have helped? It was a novel idea though to traverse a 3d space in a purely 2d game, and it was very creative of you to think of it. |
| Apr 27 18:50:35 | 20m 54s | Pan's Mythical Journey | ♥ 1 | Nice game! I enjoyed the different attacks to make it feel more varied. There were enough different enemies to be satisfying as well. A couple times I was attacked as soon as I fell to the next level though, so maybe keeping the enemies farther from the center until you drop would be good. It must have been a lot of work making the different AI for each enemy, but as a player I think it was worth it. Each enemy felt challenging and needed a different strategy. |
| Apr 27 19:41:21 | 50m 46s | Into the Past | ♥ 1 | I really enjoyed this game. My first time through I did end up getting killed by my old self, and I was shocked. The second time through I was much more strategic about how I played. I liked that the game made me think differently about how to solve the problem. The controls were fluid, and I did not really come across any bugs that I noticed. Good job! |
| Apr 27 20:06:36 | 25m 15s | Hungry Jungle | ♥ 1 | My first time playing a bird was already attacking me at the start, and after I killed it I could not move anymore. I think I realize now I must have de-selected the player. My second playthrough I made it to room 6, before I tried 2 different berries that instantly kill you and lost. The game was cute, and it was surprising being able to play as three people at once. It was hard to select enemies by clicking on them though, maybe a larger area around them that could be clicked would be helpful. |
| Apr 27 20:15:58 | 9m 22s | Dimensions | ♥ 3 | The graphics and sound were so cute! I really enjoyed the game, I wish there were more levels! |
| Apr 27 21:01:54 | 45m 56s | Pit Dungeon | ♥ 1 | This was very well done! I didnt come across any bugs, and the game was a good challenge the entire time. I think it took like 4 tries to beat the final boss, getting further each time. The levels were maybe a little big to have to restart if you died towards the end, but otherwise it was a nice amount of content and never felt like I was repeating the same thing. Great job! |
| Apr 27 21:17:12 | 15m 18s | Great Depth, Great Dairy | ♥ 1 | This was good fun, with a great environment. I loved the different 'biomes', especially the burning milk. I tried pretty hard, but I was not able to beat it because at the end I did not know what could and could not be touched anymore, and it took so long to get back there. I got to the Hollywood sign like 4 times, and got as far as the cow before dying. |
| Apr 27 21:50:15 | 33m 03s | The Camera Is Watching | ♥ 1 | This was cute and fun. The second map took me several tries, and in the end I was only able to keep piggy alive on that level, but I did it! The effects of each camera could be made clearer, and being able to turn thing on and off or open and closed would be great. |
| Apr 27 22:21:06 | 30m 51s | Teh Man and the Sea | ♥ 1 | Nice game! It starts off pretty slow, but once you get the first o2 upgrade you can consistently get multiple treasures. The art was beautiful. |
| Apr 28 12:30:44 | 14h 09m | Fathomless | ♥ 1 | I loved the hand drawn aesthetic and the scribbling sounds. Its only some areas that are too hard- I had 20 deaths in one place, and then another 30 in another where I finally gave up. Even then the main reason I gave up was because I respawned so far away from where the challenge was. I did not notice any bugs though, so congratulations on that! I would love to see this Idea expanded on also, so maybe instead of full boxes around the sub-levels, some of the structural elements of the inner level will be usable in the outer one. I really enjoyed this, good job! |
| Apr 28 12:47:54 | 17m 10s | Psychedelic | ♥ 1 | Took me 3 tries, but I was able to win. Once I found the sprint key it was much more doable, but still difficult. I appreciate the story that went this, it was small, but enough to really make a difference. I was expecting to get motion sick going into this, but it wasnt bad actually. You did a good job of making it pretty to look at without the shapes making you sick. Nice job! |
| Apr 28 13:11:06 | 23m 12s | Deeper Sleeper | ♥ 1 | Very creepy! It draws you in with forbidden knowledge. I feel like I need to know what happened to her now. Nice job setting the scene so well! |
| Apr 28 16:27:48 | 3h 16m | Sonder (a story) | ♥ 3 | I loved the atmosphere and the journey. The art was beautiful, as was the sound. I also had the bug where I could not pan in the 2nd playthrough, but I still was able to finish it again. Great Job! |
| Apr 28 16:44:19 | 16m 31s | Catlantis | ♥ 3 | Great game. Not to difficult or punishing while still not being boring or trivial. The art was cute, I did not come across any bugs, and it told a nice little story. Great Job! |
| Apr 28 17:59:44 | 1h 15m | 27500m drop | ♥ 1 | I got to the bottom, and it was a perfect surprise! It was easy to maneuver, and had enough biomes to not feel repetitive. Great job! |
| Apr 29 13:20:58 | 19h 21m | SeaQuest DVD: the Quest for SeaQuest DSV | ♥ 3 | I love this! The humor was great, and I loved that you scripted a story in this time. Truly impressive. |
| Apr 29 15:51:39 | 2h 30m | Waiting for Jungle Records to Come in the Mail | ♥ 1 | I loved the feel of the game from the Art and Music. It really set the mood well. I enjoyed the combat too. Unfortunately after the first boss I could not figure out how to get to the next level. |
| Apr 29 16:22:12 | 30m 33s | Deeper and Deeper in... The Case of the Cultish Karens! | ♥ 1 | Wow! This was such a good game for such little time. The game looked great and sounded good. The story was funny, and the top down 3d felt great. Great job! |
| Apr 30 16:48:48 | 24h 26m | I Would Like To Check Out of This Hotel | ♥ 2 | The game was fun and funny. I enjoyed the different enemies, and how the story trickled out. I want to know more about the not-bartender now. The shooting felt good, and I liked how it pushed enemies back. Great job! |
| Apr 30 17:12:40 | 23m 52s | Blue Square and the Mystery Cave | ♥ 1 | Great job! I loved the variety in puzzles. You were able to make so many more levels than I was expecting. |
