Oct 5 22:49:20		D.A.D Logistics ltd.	♥ 2	Very cool game, with a notion of balance that perfectly fits the theme. I really appreciated the tension that you feel during the trip between two ports. Kudos also for the clear instructions and easy-to-use interface. Stengths : Fun gameplay, thematically adequate Simple, straightforward UI Cool nods to Tetris in the gameplay and the soundtrack ;) Possible Improvements Font sizing is sometimes a bit off. All in all, great game !
Oct 5 22:49:33	13s	Unstable Genius	♥ 1	Freaking fantastic experience. You had me at the live-action sequences, but the rest of the game proved to be really entertaining. Kudos for all the small details, like the authenticator. Strenghts : Hilarious sequences (live-action, interactions) So many details (authenticator, …) Not impossible to complete that these games sometimes are Congrats !
Oct 5 22:51:28	1m 55s	Critical Massacre	♥ 1	Fun Shooter, with a cool mechanic well aligned with the theme. I really liked the fact that you have to mind your resources and not dash in like in a Metal Slug-like… Strenghts : Cool visuals and audio It’s a shooter where you have to think ! Combining the lifebar with the heat meter was a great idea Possible improvements The encounters might be a bit tough. Great game !
Oct 5 22:51:55	27s	Shrodingor Unstablor Borgor	♥ 2	Visual Novels are scarce during Game Jams, and I am happy to stumble on one for once. The whole premise, as well as the insertion of French excerpts, were hilarious ! Strenghts : Very good visuals Choices and consequences ! Super dialogues ;) Possible improvements : MeatMan might have been difficult to understand for people less familiar with French Great game, looking forward to more !
Oct 7 00:10:46	25h 18m	Tanks 'n robots	♥ 1	Fun action game. It’s pretty refreshing to be controlling a tank, the controls are intuitive, the goal is clear and the whole setting is thematically accurate. Nice job ! Strengths : - A 3D action game, well above LD standards in terms of polish - Cool intro/outro movies - Fun to play, easy to finish Possible improvements - The enemies might do too little damage Congrats !
Oct 7 00:11:50	1m 04s	Tables & Tremors	♥ 1	Great boxing game with a retro 3D experience. I really enjoyed the imaginative design, as well as the subtleties of the aerial controls. Strengths : - Very refined gameplay and level design - Cool graphics - You uncover so much depth and inventivity as you go through through the levels Possible improvements : - Highly subjective, but having Space mapped to the punch caused by death more than once. Excellent game !
Oct 7 00:12:36	46s	ALL PLANED	♥ 2	Really good implementation of the theme ! Everything is extremely polished : the graphics; the audio, as well as the gameplay and the very many hints that allow you to optimize your flight. Well done ! Strengths : - Beautiful graphics, very enjoyable audio - Very approachable and refined gameplay - Original scoring mechanic - Possible improvements : I don’t really see any ; maybe add more obstacles. Also, the part where engines are stables and the planes is actually controllables are way more fun than the one where the engine breaks, but having the latter brings variety - more a matter of personal taste than an objective critic. All in all, awesome, congratulations !
Oct 7 00:13:15	39s	Everything is Fine	♥ 6	Fantastic narrative experience. I loved how you managed to cram so many point-and-click experiences into the game, and how those mesh together to support your narrative. Kudos also for the graphics and the audio. Strengths : - Gripping narrative, in sync with the theme - A lot of variety in the mini games, and all of theme support the narrative - Gorgeous audio and visuals Possible improvements : - Some latency between clicks and feedback make the start a bit confusing (drining time, …). Great game !
Oct 7 00:13:49	34s	Wobbly Penguins	♥ 6	What a game ! That caught me completely off guard, especially since the first part of the game is so typical of what you typically see in game jams (the polish of this first part helped a lot !) Strengths : - Polish all the way (visual/gameplay/…) - Fantastic tonal shift, with some recontextualisation along the way Possible improvement : - I do not really see any ; platforms with elevation at the start are a bit confusing, but that’s a nitpick Fantastic game !
Oct 7 00:14:19	30s	绝地天通(Babel Blocks)	♥ 3	Fun game, thematically accurate. Alternating between phases was a good idea, and the physics were well made. Strengths : - Clear interface, pretty easy to play - Neat graphics - Fun physics simulation Possible improvements : - The field was maybe a bit too large for the number of building blocks that you have, at least at the start. Great job !
Oct 7 00:14:55	36s	QuAnTuM CaR	♥ 1	Welp, that vehicle sure gets unstable. I enjoyed the mood you reated, and I had fun trying to navigate the level, even if I am not entirely sure about what I needed to do to reach the goal. Strengths : - Cool graphics and audio - Overall, good space mood Possible improvements : - The vehicle is a bit jittery - The vehicle being unstable is part of the theme, but turning left or right being impossible later on sentences you to death if you missed the first jump Overall, great entry !
Oct 9 14:42:38	62h 27m	Crazy Cauldron	♥ 2	One of the best entries I have played ! The gameplay mechanic is fun and simple to grasp - there is never a boring moment. The visual and audio package also greatly contributes to the enjoyment of the game. Strengths : - Great main mechanic, with a very good sense of timing and difficulty - Controls are immediate - Great pixel aesthetic Possible improvements : - There are sometimes slight differences between the color of the content of the cauldron and the requirements of the customer, which makes the outcome less predicatable. Great job !
