Oct 4 14:52:20 Unstable Marbles ♥ 1 Love the audio and pixel graphics. Some of the balls are too small to see inside the truck. If they were all large, the counter would've been unnecessary and a bit more elegant overall. "Oh no! You've lost!" Adorable. :D
Oct 4 14:55:40 3m 20s Jump Goat ♥ 0 Nice art and simple controls! Would've like a bit more width out of the level so there's more side to side action. Right now you can just spam W and get pretty far.
Oct 4 15:17:54 22m 14s Mars Contractor ♥ 1 Nice text based game! The music was pleasant. The graphics were awesome. Loved the clues that something was off scratched into the wall. My only complaint is I wish it were longer to give the story a few more beats!
Oct 4 15:29:19 11m 25s Unstable Vampire: A Text based Infinite Runner ♥ 2 I can't believe how slow I am at typing "run"! Everything about this is great. The game itself is tense and the color scheme suits that well. Really innovative for a text-based game! The ties to the theme are a bit vague, but so are mine so 🤷
Oct 4 15:44:44 15m 25s Tables & Tremors ♥ 0 This one looks fun and the art looks awesome, but I can't really play it since the controls are confusing? I thought maybe a key was stuck on my keyboard because it runs off the platform in <3 seconds every single time even when not doing anything. Am I missing something?
Oct 4 18:37:37 2h 52m Snek Left ♥ 2 Aggravatingly addicting for such a simple concept!
Oct 5 13:05:53 18h 28m Lord Glutton ♥ 1 Cool game! Nice graphics! Nothing bad to say about it!
Oct 5 13:12:03 6m 10s Brain In Jar ♥ 1 Awesome! So much better on mobile with touch controls than with the keyboard so I recommend anyone trying it out to go open it in your mobile browser at least.
Oct 5 13:14:24 2m 21s Orbitize ♥ 0 It is fun to look at! I'm not really sure what I'm doing, although I do appear to be orbiting the yellow star. I'm not sure how to affect the movement at all though, so it doesn't feel like a game, but rather some kind of simulation.
Oct 5 13:16:07 1m 43s Bounceable Side ♥ 1 Really innovative mechanic here and great graphics to boot! It is a bit hard to get the hang of and some nice easy tutorial levels would have been appreciated, but given the time constraints, it's easy to see how you wouldn't have time for that.
Oct 5 13:28:47 12m 40s Unistable ♥ 0 Nice simple gameplay that couldn't be tougher to beat! I couldn't beat even one level on PC. Had better luck on mobile, but it was still pretty tough. Excellent thematic ties at least!
Oct 5 13:32:04 3m 17s Turbulences ♥ 0 Really innovative concept! I'm not really sure what the controls are though? On mobile it seems they are way too sensitive; any touch is insta-loss. On PC it seems like nothing I do changes anything? Maybe some kind of indication that a button or joystick is being moved by ME, rather than by the ambient turbulence?
Oct 5 14:15:21 43m 17s Watch your step ♥ 1 Very tough roguelike! The art is great! I only ever got to floor 1 and that was only by chancing upon the room with the stairs. I wish perhaps there more of the solid floor tiles. Maybe there could be a cross shape of solid floor in each room connecting all the doors so you can always get to any room again, and then the choice would be about which parts of which rooms to explore first? Anyways, I did enjoy it and want to try it again to see if I can do better next time. Thanks!
Oct 5 17:46:34 3h 31m The Nuclear Ball ♥ 1 Very challenging dexterity game! I like the simple controls. I really appreciated the blinking laser indicating it was about to blow, and the duality of the bouncy pads being good or evil depending on the circumstance. I might like it if you had to slow the nuclear ball below some certain velocity for the chamber to accept it instead of just launching it full speed once you get to the final stretch.
Oct 5 18:12:29 25m 55s Cave In ♥ 1 Fun game! At first I thought I was the player on the left, but when I clicked over there, nothing happened. Then I clicked on the right and something happened so I thought, "I must be the player on the right!" Then I tried to keep myself (the player on the right) from reaching the spikes and was confused that the CPU was so eager to get to the bottom and die. Then when they won I still wasn't sure what had happened, I thought then maybe it was a suicide race? Ha! Finally figured out that you're destroying the obstacles under your opponent and you're trying to make them die before you do. Once I figured out what was going on, it was quite fun and an entertaining little distraction for a few minutes. Thanks!
Oct 5 20:47:22 2h 34m Tol ♥ 1 I enjoyed this quite a bit! It was great fun trying to get the top to the end. I was never able to figure out if hitting walls slowed the top down in any way or if it was just a set timer? I would have appreciated a more visible indicator of how much time was left and smoother transitions from block to block (quite often the top would catch on the ledge of a ramp or something when moving from one floor object to the next) Thanks!
Oct 6 15:28:16 18h 40m TECHNUCLEAR ♥ 2 So good! Such attention to detail with the sound track and visuals. Great level design with nice difficulty progression and even including a boss level which was unexpected! High marks all around even without considering the fact that you managed it in under 48 hours. I might just have to replay it to appease my desire for more levels!
Oct 6 18:07:18 2h 39m No More Stables! ♥ 1 Cool collection mini-games! Humor was right on point and the gameplay really matched the silly mood. The missile command section seemed too long to me, but other commenters disagree so maybe you nailed it. Ha!
Oct 6 18:10:49 3m 31s Unstable Stick ♥ 1 Cool! Another pogo stick game! You gave me some ideas I can add to mine! Thanks! #pogogang
Oct 7 15:11:19 21h 00m Bumpy Road ♥ 0 I enjoyed the simple controls and concept. It was fun to try to keep control of the wonky truck! I wish I had some control of how the truck was spinning mid-jump, or at least certainty that it lands on it's wheels. Jumping feels like praying to RNGeezus for an upright landing. Other than that, a lot of fun so thanks for making this!
