| Apr 30 18:33:35 | Need more deep: Donut cover | ♥ 1 | Nice little game! I like the idea of "3d with 2d controls". The game has a couple of flaws that I think can be fixed easily enough. One is that horizontal movement sometimes stops when you are trying to jump. This makes jumps frustrating as you have to retry a lot. Another is that you sometimes have to take leaps of faith into unknown territory, and progress sometimes feels like sheer luck. I have a favour to ask. You rated our game. As it turns out, I mixed up the accounts as I am participating in 2 jams. So the game that you rated has moved. Could you please move your rating to the new location (as in, remove it and re-enter it on the new game)? The link in my comment leads to the new location. Thanks in advance. | |
| May 3 14:40:59 | 68h 07m | L.D. Noire: Down the Rabbit Hole | ♥ 1 | Great idea, well implemented! I never managed to complete the level though. It's not clear whether you're going in the right direction or what the win condition is exactly. It would be easier if you could move around the postits on the cork board, so that you can visually partition friends and enemies. As it is now, the graph becomes visually overwhelming at some point. |
| May 3 22:19:54 | 7h 38m | Race to Life | ♥ 1 | Cute game! Could be great with a little polish. Make sound less grating. Make the picking up of objects feel less random. I like bright colours but these are positively chromostereoptic. |
| May 5 20:35:04 | 46h 15m | DD-7 - Underwater Exploration | ♥ 0 | Looks great, very atmospheric. The ship seems out of control though. It responds slowly and erratically. It seems like it randomly starts to rotate at some point or it gets stuck. |
| May 5 20:46:36 | 11m 32s | Shoot 'em Down | ♥ 1 | A nice shooter! But why so difficult? You have to be spot-on to kill the enemies before the bullets overwhelm you. Collision seems very unforgiving, I keep getting killed by enemy explosions and then I got killed by running into the sides! |
| May 6 20:45:08 | 23h 58m | Obelisk | ♥ 1 | Great game! Addictive and polished. Sometimes it seemed impossible to not get killed. But I did progress a little more every time. Nice to discover the different spells and how to use them. |
| May 6 20:53:57 | 8m 49s | Conduit | ♥ 1 | Great game, original and well presented too. Wow, these puzzles are hard! I don't often see puzzles the offer such a meaningful challenge in LD games. I was not a fan of having to direct the conduit when it's off-screen, but that bit wasn't too hard to solve, so it wasn't so bad 😃 |
| May 6 22:51:06 | 1h 57m | Deeper Into The Asteroid Belt | ♥ 1 | Great shooter! This game has a nice nostalgic mood to it. It needs just a couple of little extras to make it more replayable. Like firing speed powerups, or new types of asteroids. |
| May 6 23:18:17 | 27m 11s | You Better save the Internet! | ♥ 1 | Nice game, good-looking, very arcadey. Theme is hilarious. It would benefit from some attention to particular details. The fish move very fast for the chosen zoom level, so that it is difficult to see them coming and hit them. Some parts are just travel with no action, especially the first level. The death animation would look much nicer with the enemy not moving. Oh, and please flip the sub when it's upside down. |
| May 14 21:20:33 | 190h 02m | U-Bot | ♥ 0 | Nice game, simple, but challenging. Could use some more polish though. Difficulty suddenly increases with the angler fish. Maybe instant death on touch is a bit too harsh. I am missing animations. Enemy movement patterns could be more interesting and realistic. |
| May 14 21:37:30 | 16m 57s | Celestial Corruption | ♥ 0 | Nice shooter! Quite a few enemy types with different behaviours. Some things could be improved. Enemy movement patterns could be more interesting. As it is, they tend to clump together a lot. While the graphics are nice, some of the colours are way too dark. I think a shooter really needs good explosions. The story has added value, but having the texts come up during the game action makes them hard to read. |
| May 14 22:48:05 | 1h 10m | Undermined | ♥ 1 | Great work! Addictive and polished. Game mechanic works pretty well. The global leaderboard is a nice touch. A minor gripe, I would like to get some extra bonus for chain reactions. |
| May 15 10:40:14 | 11h 52m | The Key | ♥ 2 | Very trippy game! Some of the backgrounds and music were a little too much for me though. Gameplay felt a bit like finding a needle in a haystack. The game could use some finishing touches, like animations, particles, and drop shadows to make the movement feel less floaty. |
| May 15 10:55:53 | 15m 39s | A Friendly Dig | ♥ 0 | Very unusual and atmospheric game. Graphics look great, there's a atmospheric 8 bit feel to them and there's great attention to detail. The ground looks black on black on my screen, I had to turn up brightness to max to even see it. Controls are a bit slow and clunky. If I understand correctly, there is no way to win the level, eventually you will be overwhelmed. I think it would be nicer to have a way to win the level. |
| May 15 14:57:10 | 4h 01m | Flood Fill Miner | ♥ 0 | Interesting concept! Progress is well balanced, making me want to see the next powerup and the deeper areas. After awhile I got tired of making decisions though, and I used spam clicking to make money faster. Sometimes you can click on non-adjacent tiles to dig, is that a bug? |
| May 15 15:19:40 | 22m 30s | Dikes & Polders | ♥ 1 | Awesome game! Graphics are the best I've seen yet. Very satisfying to fill the land with matching colours. Sometimes it's hard to see where to put objects, maybe have a higher-up camera view? A pity the full-screen mode doesn't work. Greetings from a (fellow?) Dutchman. |
| May 15 15:37:30 | 17m 50s | CrystalsTD | ♥ 0 | Great tower defense game! Nice to have so many tower types. Graphics are pretty awesome, but rather dark on my screen. Sound is very atmospheric, but the mini turret sound becomes kind of annoying after awhile. |
| May 15 16:02:50 | 25m 20s | I GOTTA SH!T | ♥ 0 | Fun game, graphics and sound are effective. Getting the jumps right is very hard! Getting caught in dialogues is fun at first, but it disrupts the gameplay so it becomes annoying quickly. |
| May 15 16:22:05 | 19m 15s | Dome Romantik | ♥ 1 | Amazing game! Atmospheric graphics, great sound. Nicely balanced upgrades. It's nice to switch between digging and defending. I only saw walking monsters, it would be nicer to have flying ones so that shooting involves more skill and strategy. |
| May 17 11:00:54 | 42h 38m | Baby's First Concussion | ♥ 1 | Very original idea! Clever how you represent sleep levels by zoom levels. I do think the main action is a bit too much zoomed in for my tastes. The jump control is counterintuitive, which will not work for a game of this scope and size, as it takes time getting used to. |
