Apr 27 21:06:40 Just Thinking ♥ 1 This was nice. The splash animation at the beginning was cool and the music complemented the contemplative mood. If I could give any feedback, I would say it would've been nice to have more clicks with choices instead of just progressing the internal monologue, but I understand that is just more work/writing. Otherwise, great job on this. After two runs, it's clear that I need to call my friends. 😛
Apr 27 21:16:18 9m 38s Asteroid Breaker ♥ 0 The art style was very clean which was nice. I liked how the gems weren't a scoring mechanism as I originally expected, but actually served as currency for an upgrade between levels. I think one thing that could make it better is to somehow make it more clear what direction the position of your cursor will create (maybe an arrow pointing from the drill to the cursor or line connecting the drill and cursor). It was a lot of fun though!
Apr 27 21:24:10 7m 52s Earigator ♥ 1 The music was fantastic! At first it wasn't entirely clear I needed to press a button to remove the q-tip from the ear, but once I figured that out, it was a lot of fun. Hilarious concept!
Apr 28 13:09:34 15h 45m CRASH Pit ♥ 1 For a while, I thought the game might be endless, but I finally beat it. Very well done. The controls feel great and the upgrade system adds a lot. Because you start with so little, it is very addicting to keep trying again. It feels very well balanced too. Great job!
Apr 28 21:25:11 8h 15m Deep down the asteroid ♥ 2 The character animations were cool. I liked the squid things. Navigating was a bit annoying because you would fall off a block when your body was halfway off. Obviously it could do with some sound. But for what it is, it is pretty cool.
Apr 28 21:35:57 10m 46s Drill Cave ♥ 1 I loved this art style! Very chill and the music complemented it well. Once I got the hang of it, the drill mechanic was cool. However, it would've been nice if there weren't any areas where you got stuck. It's nice that a restart feature is built in, but it turns the levels into a trial and error kind of approach for the player. I think as a simple improvement, I would just put spikes wherever a player could get stuck. That way they die instead of getting frustrated and having to restart and it becomes a smoother experience and faster gameplay loop. Great job on this!
Apr 28 21:46:32 10m 35s DEEper ♥ 2 Hilarious game! I think it would've been nice for the game to start at a quicker running speed. Maybe just personal preference, but it felt kind of slow. Otherwise, very fun and funny game.
Apr 28 21:56:15 9m 43s Super Mole Bro ♥ 1 The pixel art is great. Love the animations and the background for the beginning area is great. I wish there was a way to have checkpoints or something because it kind of stinks having to go all the way back to the top when you've made a lot of progress. Otherwise, though, you did a great job!
Apr 29 20:58:26 23h 02m Deep Space 99 ♥ 1 Loved the mouth sfx. Graphics looked great and it was fun to play. I would suggest some tighter controls next time. It was tough to turn and it would've been nice to be able to go backwards or strafe. Great job on this!
Apr 29 21:18:52 20m 26s Love's a Mystery ♥ 2 Always nice to find a VN in a jam. This one definitely had some unexpected twists and turns and I loved the cliffhanger. I hope you continue the story; it was cool.
Apr 29 21:23:43 4m 51s Hyperspace Narwhale ♥ 2 The background music is exactly what I would listen to in the background while working. Also love the design of the whale.
May 3 20:45:56 95h 22m Jewellery Journey ♥ 1 That was so stressful and difficult, lol. I finished though! The water physics are well done and I didn't ever feel like it was unfair. Art style is really great too!
May 3 21:05:31 19m 35s Unpaid Serenade for Future Solution Group [2026 eCon Grief/Heartbreak Singalong] ♥ 2 That was so bizarre and I loved it.
May 4 00:21:50 3h 16m MineWell ♥ 1 Awesome game! It's super polished and I love the animations!
