| Oct 20 04:10:34 | Umine | ♥ 1 | Like other comments noted, cool concept, but having more info in the UI would have helped a lot! Knowing how much time I have left and what else I need to look for would have helped the experience a ton! | |
| Oct 20 04:15:36 | 5m 02s | Un's Table | ♥ 0 | Awesome prototype! This reminded me a lot of the concept I went with for my own game about balancing placements as well. I would have loved to see more! You kind of just place everything and that's it, and then it's hard to tell when the "people" will eat. Overall, still a very nice idea! |
| Oct 20 04:26:49 | 11m 13s | Asterogunner | ♥ 0 | Super cool idea! It's a bit hard to figure out starting off, but once you get the hang of it you can really feel how *unstable* your gun! I ran into some issues with some boulders spawning on the edges of the screen and being hard to see until it was too late, and it felt like the best way to play was never to reach any medium-to-high level of heat since it would destroy your accuracy. I would have loved to see the game lean into making you work around the harder recoil patterns, but still a fun experience! |
| Oct 20 04:46:30 | 19m 41s | Bennet Froggy | ♥ 1 | Great pun a name, and a very cute game! Compared to the original getting Over Over It, this one feel a lot easier to start of and get going instead of having to really learn a lot, but it feels really bad to have to get sent all the way back to start after going some distance. Still, the nice narration and aesthetics helped me pull through. :) |
| Oct 20 05:13:33 | 27m 03s | Nuclear Guy | ♥ 1 | A bit confusing to start, but once I got the hang of things the concept was super cool! Having to manage your resource to make sure you can exactly land your jumps while making sure you don't explode or run out of power either. Like other said, the levels after the first were glitch and felt incomplete, but I would love to see more of the game fleshed out! |
| Oct 20 05:19:43 | 6m 10s | Unstable Christmas | ♥ 2 | I ran into the same problems that A.Bond - I couldn't progress at all and was stuck on what to do outside outside of losing the game when walking into bombs. A bit disappointing because on the art and audio side it seems like the game has a lot of charm! |
| Oct 20 05:27:41 | 7m 58s | Walking Home Simulator | ♥ 0 | A fun idea on the theme (the double-vision looked great!), but very simple and lacking variety. Even having the objects speed up would have helped! I'll also note that the difference between getting 1-shot by the cars versus taking damage from the spikes on the floor to make you choose between harder to dodge but lower risk objects versus easier to dodge but higher risk cars! |
| Oct 21 07:06:11 | 25h 38m | Crysterra | ♥ 1 | A really well done game! I always love a good mix of 2D sprites in a 3D world. Like others have pointed out, I would have loved to see more! Once you get a grasp on the controls, the game feels a bit stale and slow when it's just move to the enemies and attack. I would have loved to see the terrain moving around having more of a role in the game as well, since for now it sort of just looks pretty sure without feelings like it impacts much. Still, overall a very solid jam submission! |
| Oct 21 07:12:34 | 6m 23s | Beff Jezos: Time Shift Manager | ♥ 2 | A nice short and sweet game! I loved the goofy narration at the start, though it took me a while to wrap my head around the concept and to start progressing! I would love to see more levels - it feels like it ended just as I was getting a grasp on things! |
| Oct 21 07:19:24 | 6m 50s | Diamonds in the Rough | ♥ 2 | A really cute game and simple concept executed well and expanded on nicely with different ways to play. It was a bit confusing to get started, but once you do you can see the strategy start to emerge with how we're planning your methods of attack. I would have liked to see some gradual build up in the form of a tutorial or something to get players started and used to mechanics, but otherwise I had fun poking around in the game. The computer-drawn art style was pretty too - it's my go to for making games as well so I can respect it a lot. |
| Oct 21 07:35:52 | 16m 28s | Unstable Stable | ♥ 0 | Very laggy, but I managed to still push through to give it a try! I really liked the random rolls for a protective hit, and the whole theme of running through a farm was very fun too! I wish my computer could handle it better to let me go after a high score, but still a fun jam game! |
| Oct 21 07:41:58 | 6m 06s | Default cube game | ♥ 1 | A nice short entry, but I would have loved more! The super jump was cool, but it's unfortunate that the game ended as soon as you got your hands on it. Still a fun time though! |
| Oct 21 07:47:25 | 5m 27s | Capt'n Slippy | ♥ 3 | A really interesting way to lean into the theme of unstable between your cannon and movement going all over the place. I was having some trouble with framerate, but I still really enjoyed the music and pixel art - great job to your team for that. |
| Oct 21 07:55:54 | 8m 29s | Reflate | ♥ 1 | A cute tiny game! I was a bit confused about why I, a balloon, was trying to crush fish and mushrooms, but once I got into the gameplay that really didn't matter. Very nice pixel art as well, though I would have loved more variety in gameplay. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 08:02:03 | 6m 09s | Spirits Low | ♥ 2 | A really cool entry! I had a lot of trouble with reading the font, but even then I could tell the care behind the game. The radio-style audio was really well done, and all the artwork was beautiful as well. I unfortunately had to just poke around until things happened to get the game working, but I can still tell a lot of awesome work went in. Great job! |
| Oct 21 08:06:37 | 4m 34s | Portal Problems! | ♥ 0 | A fun bit of wordplay! The voice acting was also wonderful - it really helped pull everything together. The artwork was nice too, through I would have loved to see some more overall! Still, great job! |
| Oct 21 08:20:42 | 14m 05s | 10 minutes to instability | ♥ 1 | A very suspenseful game, though I wish I didn't have to wait and spam the refresh for the next steps. It was fun getting fed up with emails from all over the place, and in the end I managed to just barely keep the bomb from exploding in the end. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 08:29:49 | 9m 07s | Cro-Mathnon | ♥ 1 | I wasn't expecting a math puzzle game, but here we are! A really cute entry that's well done. Understandable mechanics with a very cute art style - nice job! |
| Oct 21 08:36:36 | 6m 47s | Battery Boy | ♥ 1 | This ended way too soon! The music and visuals were both great, and outside of my jump inputs getting eaten a bunch, the levels were also fun! |
| Oct 21 08:45:13 | 8m 37s | Unstable Way Home | ♥ 1 | A super unique art style and voice acting! Figuring out how to stumble my way through the world was a lot of fun, although the street level really did run on for long. Great job here! |
| Oct 21 08:54:49 | 9m 36s | Mudball | ♥ 1 | A nice small game! I wasn't sure what to expect from a game named mudball, but this executed on a simple idea really well! Sometimes the game felt slow with the pace mud was falling from the sky, but the great music and really pretty background helped a lot with that! Nice job. |
| Oct 21 09:00:04 | 5m 15s | Waiter, please! | ♥ 1 | A nice little game! I really liked the art style, and I think the theme works really well! I would have loved a reason to increase the difficulty, but still a fun experience to try out. |
| Oct 21 09:09:27 | 9m 23s | 2nd Law | ♥ 1 | This was a really pretty game! Nice job! I really enjoyed walking around and seeing what I could do, though I wish it was easier to tell what I could interact with and that I could move around fast in the game. |
| Oct 21 09:21:26 | 11m 59s | Leave Me Alone | ♥ 1 | A really interesting concept! I loved a lot of the small humor points in the game - a panicking player, the ending "oh no", and having to bonk into blocks all the time. A fresh twist on the old endless jumper concept. Great job! |
| Oct 21 09:27:42 | 6m 16s | Crumble | ♥ 0 | A nice short platformer with a surprising number of mechanics! I'm a bit disappointed to see it end so soon since there was a lot of cool stuff going on in each level. The controls also felt a bit too floaty at times, but still a fun time. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 09:34:20 | 6m 38s | Careful Deer | ♥ 1 | The inspiration from QWOP is really strong here, and that makes this game super fun! I was a great time trying to figure out how to better force myself to flail along the floor more effectively. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 09:41:15 | 6m 55s | Luna's Painful Pastel Promenade | ♥ 0 | A super unique art style here! I think only having pops when you jump adds to that feeling, though I think a bit of music could have gone a long way as well. Like others have noted, it's a bit frustrating to have to fall and go back up, but still a fun small game! |
| Oct 21 09:46:39 | 5m 24s | My First Game Jam Game | ♥ 1 | This was a super well polished game for a first game jam title! Nice job! Everything felt very polished between the visuals, animations, audio, and puzzles that slowly taught you what you needed to do. I think the tutorial text could have been tuned down a bit and the pacing could have been a bit faster, but I still really enjoyed the game nonetheless! |
| Oct 21 09:56:58 | 10m 19s | 【night trade】 | ♥ 1 | This was one of my favorite games aesthetically! The music and art made the experience a lot of fun, even if most of the time I was just matching things until numbers went up. I also liked the twist at the end that completely flipped the script! Awesome job. |
| Oct 21 10:00:17 | 3m 19s | Un-Stable | ♥ 1 | I got drawn in by the absurd thumbnail and was not disappointed! You did a great job making a really goofy game to fit the clip art you choose, and even if it wasn't a super long game, it was a lot of fun! Nice job! |
| Oct 21 10:06:09 | 5m 52s | Changes | ♥ 0 | An awesome little game! I love the little captions before each stage - it adds a lot to make each stage a bit more interesting. The gameplay was a bit slippery at times, but still a fun time. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 10:12:17 | 6m 08s | Frail Ascent | ♥ 2 | This game was crazy for how little time it was made in! It looks beautiful, sounds amazing, and has a lot of depth as you go! Learning the mechanics and camera starting out took a second, but I was really engaged once I started going. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 10:18:24 | 6m 07s | UKI | ♥ 2 | Nice job for a first time! The gameplay was definitely not what I was expecting when I saw the thumbnail, but that first fight was a fun surprise! I unfortunately fell through the world immediately after the fight, but I did enjoy what I got to play with to start! |
| Oct 21 10:23:42 | 5m 18s | Babel | ♥ 1 | Super awesome title! I love how quickly things could get chaotic when trying adjust for your own mistakes! Everything was super cleanly done too - the sound effects, visuals, and even the game over looping back right away. Really impressive title here! |
| Oct 21 10:28:58 | 5m 16s | UNSUSTAINABLE: a god job | ♥ 3 | A nice small game! A very pretty package with some nice sound effects behind it, and a dumb story that fits the unstable theme nicely to boot. Great job! There isn't really anything I had problems with - it was just fun. |
| Oct 21 10:33:30 | 4m 32s | Happy Glasses | ♥ 1 | A really fun concept - nice job for a first Ludum Dare! The puzzles were nice twists on what I've been before in similar games, and the art and music were good for what was done for a first time! |
| Oct 21 10:39:29 | 5m 59s | The Door of Illusions | ♥ 1 | Awesome game! It was fun to get the feeling that the door was angry at me as it was tossing me everything and trying to mess me up along the way. I loved the simplistic graphics and eerie music along the way as well. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 10:43:44 | 4m 15s | Potion Commotion | ♥ 2 | Wow, this game was crazy polished! I loved every second of it between the clean gameplay, great music, and really pretty artwork. Amazing job! |
| Oct 21 10:51:52 | 8m 08s | [U]nstable - 235 | ♥ 3 | Awesome game! You had a really great mix of cool art, music, and thematics going on here that came together for a super cool game! The game feels a bit slow at times waiting for the elevators to let you through, but that isn't so bad. |
| Oct 21 10:54:25 | 2m 33s | Trenchrunner | ♥ 3 | Awesome title! You had a really solid mix of juice between all the great visuals, sound effects, and music! Y'all had a really fun gameplay here too. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 10:58:00 | 3m 35s | Unstable Prison | ♥ 1 | A really interesting game that makes you think about your path and is super creepy to boot. My first run-in with that creepy monster thing made a jump a bit! Nice job on this one. |
| Oct 21 11:03:38 | 5m 38s | This Is A Stable Game | ♥ 0 | The whole pointer mechanic was a super cool twist on an old idea! Nice job there. I also appreciated the programmer jokes, and the simplistic visuals and music tied it all together. Nice job! |
| Oct 21 11:24:43 | 21m 05s | Divine Intervention | ♥ 1 | I absolutely loved the art style of the game! It reminds me of all the point-and-click games I would play growing up as a kid. Amazing job! |
