Oct 6 11:55:33 Rocky Rhodes and the Cracked Case ♥ 3 Felt more than one game. Or a one big trip. Cool voice acting and unstable changes in gameplay. Quite a brain-cake to solve here;).
Oct 6 12:02:02 6m 29s Unstabled Goat ♥ 3 Un-stable). Interesting runner, however maybe if the camera view were different... I mean, there's more fun to the hamster (whoever that is) and goat animation. I'd love to see the Score during the gameplay. Overall this game is very fun and quite a musical!
Oct 6 12:07:42 5m 40s Split ♥ 0 Cool characters. But the game itself feels very straightforward. Why did you choose to design the doors that way (like some pagan fairy tale, I wonder?). It's unstable, absolutely). An interesting experience!
Oct 6 12:12:55 5m 13s The Madness of Larry Donovan ♥ 0 Unsettling, aye). Loved the drone vibe. Wished for more action to happen sooner, and more narrative within the game itself. But cool entry, really, thanks!
Oct 6 12:20:34 7m 39s You Can Not Start This Game ♥ 1 Paper is cool. At the final point I wished for some unstable events with quitting the game or having unusual logs in the executive folder. Anyway, very creative concept (especially when there's not much time). However wished for more playing than actually listening to some Stanley Parable vibe. Nice touch with youtube).
Oct 6 12:24:04 3m 30s Mountaineer ♥ 1 Ok, there's a problem. The game doesn't launch in Chrome (at least now). What am I doing wrong?
Oct 6 12:29:55 5m 51s Brittle Buildings ♥ 2 You should have made 2 buildings... Love the concept and minimalistic sound. Hard part is to get the tower defense management. Anyway, loved the entry, thanks!
Oct 6 12:42:25 12m 30s MEATFEST ♥ 3 Hard to get at the first time. Maybe if there were just a few food providers then there'd be more to the game. But who am I to say (looking at my game)). Anyway I get there's an intriguing concept in mixing rotten ingredients. Nice;).
Oct 6 12:46:26 4m 01s Snowbody's Mountain ♥ 3 Hey, it's fun! I lost that head so many times. Wished for a double jump to fasten the process. Catchy synths, by the way). Thanks for the entry.
Oct 6 12:52:26 6m 00s The Unstable Comet ♥ 1 So, technically you just have to find a cozy space and hold "space". Some moonwalking music sounds nice). Love space anyway!
Oct 6 12:58:46 6m 20s Trusty Debate Simulator ♥ 1 Creative. Artistic. A croaking masterpiece! You gamedesigninly beat me in copywriting, totally)).
Oct 6 13:02:43 3m 57s Doctor Psycho ♥ 2 Altruism won't work here (at least, now). Reminds the old top view GTA. But the physics is sooo unstable (if that's the case, though). Anyway, thanks, the music is not depressive (due Covid).
Oct 6 13:07:25 4m 42s Game Invaders ♥ 1 Fun voice acting). If this game were much faster, though. Had fun, still. Why ladybugs, by the way?
Oct 6 13:18:11 10m 46s S.H.A.F ♥ 1 There's a colour mixing mechanics in there? In connection to midi, it seems. Hard to get the game in total, but that still remains an interesting concept. However, less text (in tutorial) and states would be easeir to get through. Quite some fun, anyway, thanks!
Oct 6 13:30:45 12m 34s Reacto ♥ 1 Nice concept, but a bit frustrating. Unstable, aye. Music feels more like fairy. But the idea of abandoned nuke space with some tasks to do (yet hard to get done) is quite into the theme.
Oct 6 13:36:15 5m 30s Cultist aboard ! ♥ 1 Felt too much graphics, yet got through the text. Defeat. Then Victory. The deal is, I tried to get the balance, which is harder, than just make their minds blow away. Fun concept, thank you).
Oct 6 13:41:40 5m 25s The Dress Rehearsal ♥ 1 Hey, our game also has fire!)) Loved the cinematics. Strange show, but some awesome, indeed.
Oct 6 13:47:15 5m 35s The OffScreen ♥ 2 A very fun concept with retro touch! But very hard to play looking just at the screen on the left (though effects in the room are quite creepy, especially if you add more glitches and sound design). There's so much narrative in there to unleash! Awesome work.
Oct 7 14:17:07 24h 29m Collapsing Cave ♥ 0 Interesting concept. Yet, there's something with the music... Cool ghost idea and fun animation! Didn't quite catch balance on collecting gold (is there some absolute winning pattern, or just collect and slowly get closer to the cart?).
Oct 7 14:20:45 3m 38s Happy Stable ♥ 2 Unstable too much). Messing with controls is harsh. Liked the horse design (+boobs)). Overall very unusual yet fun waltzing.
Oct 7 14:22:45 2m 00s Unstable Piles ♥ 1 Cool pile thinking). Got addicted for a while, made the piles, but nothing happened... Anyway, nice one! Darn bombs...
Oct 7 14:25:27 2m 42s Unstable Potions ♥ 0 The amount of text is distracting from the game. However, it's an interesting piece of potion-making. But I felt really sad, when couldn't pet the Cat (even if he's the bossy one).
Oct 7 14:27:27 2m 00s Unstable: Save a Herd of Horses ♥ 4 Un-stable, indeed. But me partner felt so sad with horses burning... Quite a hard story for some stablemaster, yet there's a concept to work with. Thanks!
Oct 7 14:34:18 6m 51s POTIOMNESIA ♥ 0 The mouse view is very unstable... most of the game I got some funny articles (that's how good a potion wizard I am). Nice narrative idea, anyway. And quite a rack).
Oct 7 14:39:04 4m 46s Haywire ♥ 2 Clicking gets monotonous at some point, but overall is very fun, though music feels too relaxed and some poopy sfx (or animation) could be fun on this rocket jump mechanics. Played for a while this bouncy cowboy, thanks!
Oct 7 14:40:27 1m 23s Bob's Underworld ♥ 1 Well, seemed too fast and feel a lack of narrative, but there's quite a challenge, thank you! Loved the beat.
Oct 7 14:41:43 1m 16s Ciftlik Bar ♥ 2 Quite a beer lounge you've got there! Nice game.
Oct 7 14:45:51 4m 08s Wobbly Penguins ♥ 6 The weird thing is that the game is already fun and unstable without the tunnel. So the tunnel narration seems unstable within unstable, yet with levels continuing the mood (after the tunnel) wears off. Cool penguins anyway, thanks for the game!
Oct 9 06:33:42 39h 47m Feed Me Pizza! ♥ 1 So, let me get this... there's Orwell, Cuphead, politics, pizza, a cartoon style matched with music, nice intro, yet the narrative doesn't tell anything from this point (which could be used in some phrases, not just sprire reversed). Pizza, mm... if hot and seen is so delicious. But I think the idea that those freaks would eat anything is appropriate. So, I actually had fun playing your game!
Oct 9 06:39:45 6m 03s UNSUSTAINABLE: a god job ♥ 5 Catchy puzzles, but it starts too hard. Liked the design and references. And I'd rather use another font in messages and less text, to make it more comprehensible due to the dynamics of your game. Cool creation, anyway!
Oct 9 06:47:28 7m 43s Office Novice ♥ 2 I know, I try to get it done, or just wait until the chaos is on, enjoy the music and have hard tequila shots with the "fine guy". That's a real fun game, especially as I played it (in the office, in the real life).
Oct 9 06:50:50 3m 22s Chronondrum ♥ 1 Crimson... land... it's easy to get started and quite hard and random to get wasted there. But the overall game and idea is nice. Get it going!
Oct 9 07:14:03 23m 13s Are You Sleeping? ♥ 1 De-pressing. Straight-forward. But makes you want to laugh along with those... creeps). Great example for not having some sleep in a roadside barn.
Oct 9 07:21:12 7m 09s Unstable Life ♥ 1 2 years ago, maan... I think I know why this milk is bad. If this story makes it further, I'd like to see where it goes. Keep the fine work!
Oct 9 07:29:29 8m 17s Cards In Your Hand ♥ 2 That's quite a series of misfortunate events. I enjoyed your game, the dialogues are cool, and the tunes. With some polish or do-forward, there's a big potential for some fun text adventure. Go on!
Oct 9 14:05:32 6h 36m LONE ROOM ♥ 0 Play and comment when you ready to get a review.
Oct 10 04:39:15 14h 33m Kojan ♥ 2 Feels like a good start for a proper full-play. There's a lot narrative hiding in there, not just on home/parent abuse. Loved the style! Thanks for the entry.
Oct 10 04:43:42 4m 27s Unstable Array ♥ 0 I remember those days, writing commands in DOS. It's a nostalgia thing, but hard to play really. More of a sim with an idea for the retro vibe. This game could exist even without the visuals (like text/command adventure). Good vibrations here, man).
Oct 10 04:46:44 3m 02s Once Upon a Break. ♥ 0 Вот только рейтинг на международном джеме получить на русском очень сложно. Зачин интересный, нет геймплея. И стены прозрачные. Но персонажи проработаны, есть поле для дальнейшей разработки. Дерзайте!)
Oct 10 04:53:07 6m 23s Unstable Memories ♥ 1 That's some kind of raving Doc theme with a slight vibe of Twin Peaks (black and white episode), maybe that's like it all started... Anyway, nice concept. Cool blurry movement effects).
Oct 10 04:55:25 2m 18s New World Disorder ♥ 1 Some thoughtful essay. My world is a full disorder now...
Oct 10 04:57:32 2m 07s Unfairly Unstable Unfun Game ♥ 1 This is a very nice concept, but making people die for no reason without narrative or explanation makes this game mostly stressed, than unstable. If there'd be a reason behind all the mis-steps, that'd be nice (and a smaller char sprite). Keep it up!
Oct 10 05:00:58 3m 26s Tripple Trouble ♥ 1 Nice Guitar Pro). Shifting is cool, but gets repetitive. Some narrative jokes are higly recommended! Overall, played for a long while managing those jumps. Thanks!
Oct 10 05:02:42 1m 44s Inertia ♥ 0 Hard to get what to do. I definitely need some back story on that... rubbeardy thingy?
Oct 10 05:04:21 1m 39s Unstabrick Maze ♥ 1 Played it like a synthwave video clip. You should save bullets for later, I suppose, for the moving structures. The audio beat is hot, loved it overall, thanks!
Oct 10 05:07:15 2m 54s Devil's Sitter ♥ 2 The game has a huge potential, however starts with lots of text mistakes. Then it gets into pixel-hunting without any popping text to get used to the items around. The art is very cool, but the game itself is not playable smoothly yet. But i liked it!))
Oct 10 05:09:05 1m 50s Destabilize a Reactor ♥ 1 Everything changes in this game, when you wear a garbage head. Then it's real fun and easy-going, even if the chances are off. Keep it up!)
Oct 10 05:10:57 1m 52s The Unstable Catventure ♥ 2 Cool concept, though needs polishing (if developing further). Had to save all the cats despite the harshness. Do cats give different powers now? Catchy game, thanks for the entry!
Oct 10 05:13:10 2m 13s The Adventurers ♥ 1 Kino adventures? An interesting touch on the concept with resources' management, however I'd love more adventurous narrative and reactions on your actions. But the game is very cute, expecially with Kino reference (maybe it's just in my mind), thanks for the entry!
Oct 10 05:14:29 1m 19s Wobble ♥ 1 Cute game. But bounce physics is very hard to get used to. Loved the design!
Oct 10 05:17:00 2m 31s Chickie Catchers ♥ 1 Here's the winner for the hot-seat! Best played two-gether, makes it more fun and humour. Very decent game based on simple but thoroughly produced mechanics. And no violence. Thanks, guys!
Oct 11 06:59:43 25h 42m Monday ♥ 1 Nice work, man, especially due the circumstances. Cool mouse killer with the loud (yet mute) unstable scream!
Oct 11 07:11:22 11m 39s Bad Ball Blob ♥ 1 Got through many levels, nice one. Wished for more interesting physics (lika bazooka in Worms). But overall had fun, thanks!
Oct 11 10:44:35 3h 33m Hang in There Until Meetings Are Over ♥ 1 Hard to please everyone, like in real life. Maybe it could be more fun in a text way, though.
Oct 11 10:47:46 3m 11s Divine Intervention ♥ 1 Very nice design, but most buttons seem to not work and maybe the controls could be less complicated (and no recipe book to check with).
Oct 11 10:51:25 3m 39s Stack Tower Jump ♥ 1 It gets very repetitive, especially without sounds and some narrative concept. If split into levels with some backstory, maybe this would be much more interesting. But I definitely liked the simple controls.
Oct 11 10:56:15 4m 50s Unstables ♥ 2 Toxic! The best race I had was holding the tail. Thanks, no creatures were harmed).
Oct 11 11:00:11 3m 56s Ghosting the Party ♥ 3 Fun concept, but it's really hard to run from this party (could be easier).
Oct 11 11:03:54 3m 43s U.N.S.T.A.B.L.E. ♥ 1 Is that a viral thing? Got in my mind too fast too well. Have to rinse it now. Hard liqour, waiter!
Oct 11 11:08:45 4m 51s Asylum ♥ 1 Disturbing, aye, but I managed to escape, so feel free and happy now. Where's my medication?!!
Oct 11 11:11:00 2m 15s Willy on a Wheel ♥ 1 Very hard, but the whole concept is fun. And I liked the music, thanks!
Oct 11 11:15:25 4m 25s Island in collapse ♥ 1 Most of the time you just wait for the game to play itself. But the art is nice, and the music is catchy. A simplier approach to making this game (with some tetris-planes) would be better, I think.
Oct 11 11:24:20 8m 55s One Dark Day ♥ 3 Why no rating in audio? It was quite charming, otherwise plenty of text could be skipped. That's an interesting take on the theme and some cool lore within, but still feels too much of a narrative (even for me, being a writer). But that's a great foundation for a proper game, so, please, keep up! The art is cool here).
Oct 15 14:21:25 98h 57m Burning Down the House ♥ 0 But why puddles still do fire? The extinguishing things seems a bit off, but the most unstable here is the music). Nice touch on the theme, though! Thank you.
Oct 15 14:25:04 3m 39s Another Brick on a Brick ♥ 0 Didn't quite get how to play, but the overall idea seemed nice, especially the silent playing of the band I love. Was confused by the sides and the lack of rotation.
Oct 15 14:33:29 8m 25s Sam's Misadventure with a demon: Origins ♥ 0 Well, actually there's a game and a story. Yep, too much lore to un-core and there's no game there about this, but overall I enjoyed the tension, thanks!
Oct 15 14:42:33 9m 04s Vomit Up the World ♥ 3 Literally unstable mechanics, which can be used in some game, especially to that tune. Better play on the empty stomach!
Oct 16 04:24:10 13h 41m Toilet paper ! ♥ 1 Creative way to participate. Weirdly addictive for a while).
Oct 17 14:31:09 34h 06m Russian AllCash ♥ 2 Okay, how sober you were making this? It seems there's no cash in it, but the wordplay noticed. Nice marketing on the total team age though.
Oct 17 14:40:35 9m 26s Vintage SPACE Restaurant with AI ♥ 2 This is a very good game and I really enjoyed playing it for a few rounds. The introduction, thanks for the story! Menu, music beats. However, the main theme is cut a bit obviously, not seamless. Anyway, I really wanted to play it a bit and have some kind of ending. Obviously, you have some idea of making this game the whole one big experience in the future, but here at LD with all the games it becomes too fast too long and too repetitive. But very enjoyable! One of the best this 49, at least amidst what I played. Thanks!
Oct 17 14:47:57 7m 22s Hold it ! ♥ 3 Loved the art, the audio is nice. I can tell the concept with 3 chars but that's a bit too much for a jam game. Is that tetris? I don't know. But the game is fun.
Oct 17 14:53:54 5m 57s Cat Stranding ♥ 3 Sorry, the game was ruined for me, when I realized this cat won't jump. A simple fun taken away. That's a cat disaster. But the overall idea is quite nice.
Oct 17 14:59:20 5m 26s Diamonds in the Rough ♥ 0 I remember someone important said that a game is a tutorial. So, tutorials are meant to become the part of the game. An all in right from the beginning, especially when you have to grab player's attention fast. So, the thing is I didn't quite get this one without reading the tutorial, which is a test. But there's an interesting touch to your idea.
Oct 17 15:08:09 8m 49s Contrary ♥ 4 That is reminiscent of some weird demon dance, the animations almost fit the music! A paranoid ballet. It's charming, actually, thanks for the entry.
Oct 17 15:14:08 5m 59s A Year of Rest ♥ 0 That's very interesting, though, you could just prototype a tiny version of it ("kill your darlings"), add some sounds and make it more of a story. There's narrative, and cars won't hit you. But still, there's a potential here, I hope. Keep up.
Oct 17 15:24:11 10m 03s House is not always a home ♥ 0 Nice ambient music with cool overdrive, but it gets harder to listen further, and the sfx just don't fit. Despite that, finally a cool narrative weeping sim I craved for! Thank you. Digged the sketch art. And the tunes change, hey! You're over your head. Cool entry. (too much text with lack of proper direction due the lack of time, still cool)
Oct 18 18:58:12 27h 34m I found the legendary weapon that made me a hero and i'm going to fight the ... ♥ 1 Very interesting concept, not easy to handle, though. Cool title by the way).
Oct 18 19:19:39 21m 27s Fractured Edge ♥ 2 Unique concept, very cool audio. Not very playable, but there's a future to it. Thanks for this delightful work! Me, as an audio microsoud man, is so thrilled here!
Oct 18 19:23:48 4m 09s Wurst Angst Apple Joy ♥ 1 The audio mumbling is very unstable, indeed. Maybe it's the camera angle, but everything seemed to lay on each other a bit... incomprehensible. There's a quest there, I know. But, man, this mumbling makes you forget what you're doing.
Oct 18 19:27:55 4m 07s Highdepth ♥ 1 Ok, this one is cool and has very nice sfx with good bassy-ness. But the difficulty curve should be adjusted, for it's more of a nice cosy casual (hyper?) than some art-house stuff. Really liked it, though, there's a potential to master here.
Oct 18 19:34:02 6m 07s Emotionally Unstable Bethy ♥ 1 Wonderful! Could be the best game if not for the music and sfx. Otherwise, it's very cool short story with, maybe, no moral at all, but there's a lot of philosophy! Thank you, this evening went well, your game saved it. P.S. Fun artwork!
Oct 18 19:37:25 3m 23s Catamaran Cats ♥ 0 That's a great concept, I think. But it doesn't work at all without sound or narrative. Maybe, it's just me, but I had no idea where it's going, and why am I doing this. Love the cats, though.
Oct 20 15:38:37 44h 01m Eldritch Horse ♥ 2 Did I just have an orgy? Very un-f-stable and weird to control, but one hell of a horse roller coaster!
Oct 20 16:52:50 1h 14m Cannot Wake Up ♥ 0 Walking by the voltage lines, hey, that's an intriguing dreaming! I really liked the concept, the physics and the sound design. With more narrative, quite promising.
Oct 20 16:57:56 5m 06s Mercenary Diaries ♥ 1 Interesting, needs polish though (a lot). But it has lots of potential for more than a jam game.
Oct 21 17:29:49 24h 31m Star Miner ♥ 1 Really dig the sfx here, the bassy vibe. And very interesting touch on the tutorial. Short, but reliable narrative. Overall, a very good entry, thanks.
