Apr 26 09:59:16		The WHAT IS DEEPER Game	♥ 1	Hello there ! Your game seems inaccessible. The itch.io page leads to a 404 not found. Maybe you let your game page in private, edit it on your itch.io dashboard !
Apr 26 10:03:18	4m 02s	Transcendental	♥ 1	Very good game ! Loved the vibes. The music is really nice and I like how bouncing negatives emotions creates a melody. Congrats !
Apr 26 10:13:07	9m 49s	Bohris	♥ 0	Nice game ! The game feel is good and the upgrade system is nice and balanced. The soundtrack is a bit aggressive for the ears tho, I was glad to find the on/off button for the music. Also for some reason, the music was very high in the left ear of my headphone but low (inexistent ?) in my right one. Is it a wanted effect ? Still had fun ! Was not expecting an upgrade system. Cool game !
Apr 26 12:36:07	2h 23m	Jawbreaker	♥ 1	Really nice game ! I like a lot the replayability. I was thinking it would be pretty straightforward when I saw the game over on the first choices, but it actually looks like there are a lot of possible choices, I saw that the choices seem to change if you trash the tracksuit at first. Graphics are good, tought I did not understood what were some of the icons, especially when facing the kid at the very beginning. At first I was like "what the hell why did he beat the kid" because I was thinking it would give him the jawbreaker sweet (notice that I did not read the description under the game, so I was not aware it would be about crimes). I like a lot the little references to mafia movies. Is Joe a reference to Joe Pesci ? Great experience.
Apr 26 12:51:51	15m 44s	Search and Resque	♥ 3	The gun for mining is a nice idea ! My only real complaint is the lack of sound. The atmosphere could have really kicked of with a bit of echoes, footstep, breathing, etc... I believe the player can soft lock if he venture to far in the ground with the furthest miner. Good experience, the way of mining can probably be digged (pun not intended) !
Apr 26 13:11:17	19m 26s	Deepest Mine	♥ 3	Really nice concept, kinda Dwarf Fortress-ish. As said by others, it lacks polishing : it's hard to tell if your dwarves are mining correctly, and the placement of the values on screen are a bit to widespread. Having the current copper value next to the cost of recruit of a new dwarf would be nice for exemple, or coloring the price in green / red depending of the fact you have or haven't enough money to recruit a new one. Very good concept and complete game for a 48h submission, the cave seems to be generated at random every playthrough, which is impressive given the time. The randomness can be of disadvantage though, sometimes the monsters are coming very quickly, and some other very slowly. Mining seems to be to slow, and it's hard to manage dwarves equipment in time for fight. Also the pathfinding can literrally kill your base, sometimes the dwarfs can't reach the ennemy. It's also possible to scoot the area with the generator. Simply hovering the area with the mouse while you choose where to place it makes everything appear while you are hovering it. Given a bit of more time, this game can probably kicks off. Great job.
Apr 26 13:39:09	27m 52s	Katabasis	♥ 0	Extremely good game, surprised it does not have more views ! My only complaint is that it's not always easy to see what's coming. But really a fun experience. The game feel is excellent, even dying is fun in your game !
Apr 26 14:09:52	30m 43s	Micanthul	♥ 1	Really nice graphics and sound ! The atmosphere of the game is simply excellent. Gameplay wise, it seems complex at first glance, and it actually is strange to understand. I don't see what does hunger, and never had any problem with sanity or morale. After a while I stopped receiving random messages while progressing and I believe I got stuck in a loop or something. The game softlocked too after a fight. It can become extremely easy if Juan gets good enough. He was level 13 in my game at the moment it softlocked, and was wiping out ennemies even before the fight started. It's too bad the narrative seems broke, because the game is really enjoyable ! Very nice work !
Apr 26 14:27:16	17m 24s	Monster journal: a short story	♥ 0	Really nice game, I was actually a bit sad to see it's so short when finishing it. Nice concept and good graphics !
Apr 26 14:34:26	7m 10s	Le bateau ivre	♥ 2	Really nice experience. It's a bit dreamlike, "onirique". Maybe just a bit too slow.
Apr 26 21:14:41	6h 40m	Neural Shooter	♥ 1	Really nice game ! I like a lot the pace.
Apr 27 12:03:40	14h 48m	Well Down	♥ 0	Just tested it. The physic is, sadly, really clanky. Even jumping is sometimes really hard to achieve. The level design is hard to understand too ; while the intention are good, there are dead end with bonuses : you can take these, but cannot go back to the rest of the level after (or very hardly). Some jumps are frustrating because you have to jump into a pit, not seeing the potential ennemies or obstacles. I get that the level design is made to look like a labyrinth and that it encourage exploration, but it's sometime too hard to get back on the main path. The character is original and the idea to be able to get a grip on any wall was nice, but the physic kinda ruins it. On the other hand, the introduction is well made and it's a good surprise to see this in a jam game. The ideas are good, the execution was a bit jamed ; it's a nice attempt.
Apr 27 12:39:26	35m 46s	DOWNHELL	♥ 1	The game is as good as it looks ! Really nice to play. It's maybe a bit too hard and random but really cool, it has a lot of potential. One of my favorite for now.
Apr 27 18:03:59	5h 24m	Downward Frog	♥ 1	Beautiful game ! Maybe just a bit too hard. I enjoyed it a lok.
Apr 27 19:20:34	1h 16m	Billy Nauseous	♥ 2	Nice settings and graphics, but the the game is a bit too hard to me. There are good ideas like the ennemies pushing you in the lung section. The sounds are a bit unnerving to me, maybe too high-pitched. To summarize, I liked the atmosphere, but find the gameplay a bit too clanky. Still a pretty nice game !
Apr 27 19:32:46	12m 12s	memories.io - A Living Painting	♥ 1	Like a lot the concept. It can be digged a bit. I like that you can interpret the meaning of the game. Maybe you should not have explained it on this page, it's also nice to keep mystery. I feel like you could have let away the score. A screenshot of the end of the game might be a better score than numbers. Also, the sentence appearing could have been generated from the various geometries the player gathers. It could really go well in the idea of creating a memory. It's a wonderful game idea. I'm glad I played it. Thank you for making it.
Apr 27 19:43:55	11m 09s	Digmon	♥ 0	Extremely fun once you get how it works ! Difficulty is just right, it's hard, but not enough to discourage the player immediately. I loved it !
Apr 27 19:53:35	9m 40s	Lost In Couch	♥ 2	While I liked the concept, artstyle and music, I found the game to be a bit too hard. I believe it's intentional but the ragdoll makes you lose a bit to much control in my opinion. Still a nice idea with wonderful atmosphere and artworks !
Apr 28 09:23:37	13h 30m	TRENCH	♥ 1	Really good puzzles and progression ! Bravo ! I love how you made every gameplay mechanics emerge one by one, like hidden tutorials. It is clever and really well done. The only problem I found was that if you spam on the spike fishes you can throw them two cases far while not moving. It might just be a bit too slow, but really a nice experience. The puzzles were very good and there is definitely something to dig with the interaction between the different elements. Very good work !
Apr 28 09:33:45	10m 08s	Depthplosion	♥ 1	A very nice game ! I like how light is affecting how you play this game. You nailed it for on the idea of seeing or not seeing the danger, the way the bomb glows is perfect in that it give information on danger but also on paths surrounding. It's a very nice use of graphics for gameplay mechanic, which is frankly impressive in a 48h made game. Pushing the bomb, while a very simple interaction in itself, actually creates a lot of depth to the gameplay since you use this to throw away a bomb but also to place it in a place that will open a path. Only problem would be the missiles that are going to fast on the player, or too unadvertised. Maybe a sign appearing on the place they will land could help ; it would create a bit of stress too. Overall a very good entry !
Apr 28 09:55:22	21m 37s	Unto the Eight	♥ 1	Extremely good ! The art is fantastic, the music very nice and fitting, and the general creature and world design is wonderfully weird. You feel the world living while playing, and this is seriously impressive for a game made in 48h. I'm in awe of what you did. While it is indeed hard, I don't think the game in itself is too hard ; I believe the real difficulty is the lack of checkpoints. But I also see why you have to do everything in one go, it's also about planning your path, so I don't really know if it's possible to implement checkpoints in such gameplay. I think the really hard thing is when you don't have light anymore, then you are basically screwed if you are too far from a cold fire. Maybe making a shadow of entities just adjacent to the player would be nice ; like, the same sprite for all entitie, something that says "hey there is something here, but you can't see what it is. Will you interact on it ?". I believe it would fit very well on your movement system. Overall an excellent experience. I'll try again because I did not manage to finish it. I'm also curious to see the full map and might look at it in the source code (but after finishing it, don't want to spoil myself !)
Apr 28 10:16:00	20m 38s	Hellevator	♥ 2	Nice game ! The only problem to me is that it is a bit too hard and long to skip the intro after each try.
Apr 28 15:59:15	5h 43m	Down to the Core	♥ 1	Good feeling and retro vibes ! The game is well packaged and works well. It gets quickly very hard tho, the bullet hell dimension is a bit too quickly too much in my opinion, but I still like it !
Apr 28 16:15:44	16m 29s	DwarfSweeper	♥ 2	Surprised this one does not have more rating. It's a very good idea ! It's challenging. Only thing that miss to me would be to put flags from at least a little distance, especially when a block became unaccessible from falling and you have to jump to reach it. The way score is calculated is interesting and seems balanced !
Apr 28 16:17:59	2m 15s	Ocean Is Your Friend	♥ 0	I can't access the game on the Itch.io page, is this normal ?
Apr 29 09:55:12	17h 37m	Derbys F#ckin Pissed	♥ 2	Nice atmosphere, graphics and intro ! The music too is good. The gameplay was a bit boring to me but it's not bad. I liked the game !
Apr 29 10:15:01	19m 49s	Gulp!	♥ 1	Really nice mood in the game ! It's a bit strange and slighlty disgusting at some point but it shows that the the atmosphere is well done ! I was thinking it would be boring pretty quickly but the levels are actually diverse ! I also liked the graphics. Very nice game !
Apr 29 12:06:01	1h 51m	Viper Mission One	♥ 1	Nice game. It's a bit hard to figure out where your bullets are landing at first but it's nice to play, maybe just a bit slow and too repetitive after some time. But it's overall a good entry !
Apr 29 20:06:22	8h 00m	Dive & Dig	♥ 2	Very nice concept ! I liked the dialogues and the idea of changing screen. There is something to dig. Now as an arcade game it becomes quickly easy and repetitive but there is definitely something to do with this concept. Also the graphics and sounds are nice !
May 1 10:08:38	38h 02m	Exiled	♥ 1	Nice game, I loved the graphics and the music (tho a looping one instead of a fading one would have been a slightly better choice), and the story is nice. Is there a secret ending or is it just a loop ? I'm not sure, I did the gam three times searching for something... It is overall very well made because the monologue drives a story in the player's mind. Really nice !
May 4 16:36:59	78h 28m	Try again	♥ 1	Excellent game idea. The graphics are especially well handled. I like a lot the concept, we had a bit of a similar idea with our respective games, tho I think your works better than mine about the environmental changes. Really nice entry.
May 8 12:44:16	92h 07m	Go next in Hell	♥ 0	The art is nice while being a bit strange, was it wanted to have somewhat blurry pixels ? I tried to imagine what the characters were saying and to interpret everything but it's a bit hard without knowing the language used in the game. The musics were nice too, good work on this !
May 18 14:47:03	242h 02m	It came out of space	♥ 1	Hi ! Liked a lot the mood and the environnment, the graphics are simple yet nice ! The game could be better on the gameplay but is enjoyable due to its unique atmosphere. Nice music too, though sounds would have made the experience even better. A good entry overall !
May 18 17:42:06	2h 55m	Big Brain Time	♥ 1	Unique concept but it does not seems to be working very well. It is worth a bigger version I believe,to correct bugs and make it a bit more understandable. I agree with the precedent message saying a zoom out would be nice. Very nice graphics and remarquable but overall missing a bit of fun for now.
