| Apr 26 02:12:42 | For Whom The Diving Bell Tolls | ♥ 2 | i like the bottles to read while waiting for air to recharge, i wish there were more in better spots though | |
| Apr 26 02:16:33 | 3m 51s | Extreme Deep Sea Fishing! | ♥ 2 | Loose controls make me feel like I have a lot to learn about the finer mechanics of properly aiming and controlling the net, but the harpoon is simple, and the dynamite requires some timing. But all in all, it's rly cool to travel to the depths, fight a shark, and carry it back up like I'm recreating the Old Man and The Sea |
| Apr 26 03:06:52 | 50m 19s | Just Dig | ♥ 2 | i hade trouble figuring out the controls at first, but eventually figured it out. you have to hold a direction AND push the dig button. everything looks nice, but the upgrades cost way too much for how much trouble it is to get the coins. The coins are just way too inconsistent, the level design can just make you lose. The screen speeds up before i can even dig for a little while to get the coins. I see the game here, i'm sad i couldn't get to it, bc i'm not good enough at the early parts. |
| Apr 26 03:10:27 | 3m 35s | Deep in the ocean | ♥ 1 | It's a nice dodging game, but the game could rly benefit from a way to allow the screen to go down faster, or for the player to get deeper sooner. |
| Apr 26 03:20:36 | 10m 09s | Octopus Dive | ♥ 1 | This game is rly good, it has a nice blend of movement, gathering, and timing. Just a nice experience of being an octopus. The graphics and audio make rly set the mood too, and I love the educational tidbits. |
| Apr 26 03:34:20 | 13m 44s | Flake | ♥ 1 | Not sure why the game starts off with some weird insulting the player humor, but the game is alright. You just guide a fish around to various collectibles for challenges which is kinda neat. I didn't feel like continuing after dying from being bounced around by damage at the end after the keys though. It looks good and sounds good, and i like the energy of all the fish moving around. |
| Apr 26 03:40:05 | 5m 45s | Submergence | ♥ 1 | i really wish i could play this. The effects and environment look rly great with the music sounding nice, but it runs at about 5 frames a second on the WebGL on my laptop :'( |
| Apr 26 04:01:59 | 21m 54s | Go, Little Mole! | ♥ 1 | The platforming feels good for the most part, and the way it's mixed into the jumps and level design is fun to figure out. The forgiving checkpoints make it rly nice to work through quickly. Just a good simple platformer with a digging mechanic that feels good. Good game. Music and audio work together well too. |
| Apr 26 04:08:59 | 7m 00s | The Company Store | ♥ 1 | it's the kind of game that would benefit a lot from sound or effects. But i like the mechanic of trying to get coal without any of the other things. |
| Apr 26 04:15:11 | 6m 12s | Caves of the Forgotten | ♥ 1 | the ending made me chuckle. I think it's a clever way to end a game. The art and light sound is rly good too. |
| Apr 26 04:26:35 | 11m 24s | Fast Burger Fury | ♥ 0 | got stuck on the 2 stacks of 2 pots, but i think the game is an enjoyable rupe goldberg builder-esque game, and it's satisfying to dip the food in the grease and watch it grow |
| Apr 26 04:47:56 | 21m 21s | DeepRoots | ♥ 0 | rly like the simple pathing puzzles and little sounds. it's chill. the blocks of water to path out optimally were probably my favorite, and my least favorite was level 18 with the dark maze that you have to trial and error, where i also quit, lol |
| Apr 26 04:57:15 | 9m 19s | Deepr Diver | ♥ 1 | I like a good simple jumper game. I like getting the hang of understanding how to hit space bar to go where i want. hit about 34m and felt good abt it. I sort of wish the depth had more going on as i went deeper tho. |
| Apr 26 05:22:55 | 25m 40s | Grabble Story | ♥ 1 | This game is amazing! It has that perfect loop of dodging on the way down for better rewards, but higher risk because there's more to dodge on the way up. And this is legitimately the best music and sound I've heard the entire game jam. Really good submission for LD48. |
| Apr 26 12:08:06 | 6h 45m | Root Crop | ♥ 1 | I like the roots that light up the dark section when you get lower down, so you have to explore for the water. |
| Apr 26 20:14:58 | 8h 06m | Deep in the Forest | ♥ 0 | Catching the vines feels rly good once I get the rhythm. Like Tarzan through the jungle. I think a main character or enemies coulda rly spiced this up well. |
| Apr 27 04:56:31 | 8h 41m | DeepSea | ♥ 1 | This game is actually rly nice to look at and controls surprisingly well for 3D flying. The drill is a little slow at drilling to make the game fluid. BUT WOW are the flying missiles intense when they first attack! I jumped out of my seat when the first missile hit me. It was rly cool! |
| Apr 27 05:38:37 | 42m 06s | Treasure dive | ♥ 3 | It's a really nice upgrade loop focused game. I like the art and the very nice use of 3D models. I think some of the upgrades in the middle are a little too spaced out for my tastes. And I think the final enemy obstacles were a little too easy to dodge. But other than that, a very well put together game. |
| Apr 27 05:54:07 | 15m 30s | Redtape | ♥ 2 | I give Carl the coin but then I am not able to pick up the paper in the next room for the copier that he asks me to refill. I really like the art and setting for this game though, and also that one endless room is pretty cool. The game also has a tendency to crash in the elevator. |
| Apr 27 06:21:04 | 26m 57s | Deepest Sword | ♥ 2 | This game's art and sense of humor are gonna break the jam ratings this year. It went for it. There were a couple puzzles where I felt like I was off barely and the physics required too much finesse. This game's team should be proud of how effective they all were in making an excellent and unique spin on the theme this year. I'll be remembering this submission in jam's to come. |
| Apr 27 06:31:15 | 10m 11s | Gold Digger | ♥ 1 | The voice clips are so good, and i love the destructible environment!! |
| Apr 27 06:36:12 | 4m 57s | Submarine Bean | ♥ 0 | I like the way the levels show the ocean in a very colorful way. The movement is tight and the hitboxes are ok but maybe could be a little more forgiving. |
| Apr 27 06:45:14 | 9m 02s | Little Mother | ♥ 4 | The art and animation for the little mother and the babies on top of the painted environment makes for a very tense stroll with very cute animals that i'm afraid for. The other animal dialogue in the world makes the situation narratively tense. My only advice would be to shorten maybe a couple of the longer stretches. |
| Apr 27 06:59:52 | 14m 38s | Aquanomicon | ♥ 1 | The art in this game is wonderful, although I couldn't see it in the WebGL, but it worked in the Windows build. I like the idea and the concept and the setting... but I can't figure out what on screen is what in the book fast enough, and I wasn't able to figure out any recipes past the first one. The text in the book is hard to read. |
| Apr 27 07:07:43 | 7m 51s | Roots game | ♥ 1 | Very pleasant game of aiming for stuff to feed the roots. Maybe could've used some obstacles, but the way the roots look at the end is actually amazingly realistic. It's so cool to see at the end! |
| Apr 27 07:17:40 | 9m 57s | Fish Quest | ♥ 3 | This game is very hard. I don't think I can make it to 50 meters. I rly like the beginning though, where the fish jumps out of the boat and escapes. It is very funny. I also like the explosion that happens on death which is cool. |
| Apr 27 07:34:48 | 17m 08s | Clean The Ocean | ♥ 2 | Pretty fun game of frantically fighting for enough resources to upgrade the air and continuing to sink deeper. I love the art and the way the fish get knocked around is really fun and silly. Wish there were more varied kinds of fish though. |
| Apr 27 08:02:15 | 27m 27s | Gone Fishing | ♥ 2 | The art is amazing and the fish designs are extremely good. But the gameplay could probably be tightened up a little with more money for fish and a faster reel from the start. Otherwise rly relaxing game. |
| Apr 27 15:14:25 | 7h 12m | Depths of the Mind | ♥ 0 | Neat sort of plate spinning game about doing one thing in the down-time of driving downwards. It's really cool especially once you get to the darker parts. I wish it was a little clearer that I was earning progress towards art while going down though. |
| Apr 27 15:30:48 | 16m 23s | Eat Prey Live | ♥ 1 | It's a very surreal setting which was cool. I had trouble dying though so I just chilled out and eventually the Jellyfish ate me. I kind of wish i had somekind of depth meter though. |
| Apr 27 19:42:13 | 4h 11m | Drills and Gadgets | ♥ 1 | All the art in this game looks rly good, and I like having to make hard decisions about what to drill or buy. I kind of wish the side-to-side movements were faster or costed less though. |
| Apr 27 19:50:35 | 8m 22s | EveryDay | ♥ 1 | This is one of the funniest games I've seen this jam. 😆 It's a neat experience. What it lacks in gameplay and graphics, it makes up for in a very visual story that is fun to go through. 👍 |
