Oct 4 13:30:47 Horse-d'oeuvre ♥ 1 Haha those poor horses. The enemy opponent was surprisingly good at this game. I really enjoyed it, it's fun, simple and funny. Who doesn't love ragdolls? I really like the music too, it was kind of Aphex Twin like.
Oct 4 21:15:38 7h 44m Wobbly Waiter ♥ 1 I managed a record profit of $3 it took me ages to get in the positive. I don't think I should take up waiting anytime soon. Just nice, fun and light-hearted, with a good measure of frustration thrown in.
Oct 4 21:24:33 8m 55s The Escape 49 ♥ 2 Nice platformer, the idea of using canons was pretty fun and the glitches were an interesting dynamic too. It would be nice to have some feedback about the charging of the cannons as I couldn't tell how far I was going to get fired. Nice job!
Oct 4 21:37:10 12m 37s Horse To Home ♥ 1 So bizarre, I love it. The gallop animation is majestic and then the horse just ragdolls. Perfect.
Oct 4 21:55:20 18m 10s Spanner Fever ♥ 1 Nice game, the car controller and camera took a second to get used to but they were cool, and by the last level the only thing I would say about about the car controller is that when you reverse it should steer the opposite direction, the drift is fun though. I like the way sphere car controllers feel, did you use Kenney's one as a base? The jump at the end was a nice touch! Also at one point my car got tipped up and when the engine exploded I flew off into the sky, that was pretty fun and I got the see the HDRI you used :D
Oct 5 00:03:26 2h 08m 5 Minutes ♥ 1 Very cool, I really liked the aesthetic, just some audio and more intuitive control switches would be nice, it wasn't 100% clear what each button did and I had to keep re-reading them.
Oct 5 12:26:11 12h 22m Volatile Defender ♥ 3 Awesome game, it feels really polished and tight, it looks great, it's satisfying to play, the tutorial is really good and the audio is great. It's just a shame I suck at it :D
Oct 5 12:45:27 19m 16s A bad day to harvest ♥ 1 Really nice concept really well delivered. It was pretty chilled, with just the right amount of challenge. The graphics looked nice, the music was good, the only thing I would say is that the wind indicators sometimes drew over each other and it was a little busy, and they also obscured where the plants were a little, but it wasn't a problem really. I got to 73 days.
Oct 5 12:54:56 9m 29s Werlds ♥ 1 Very cool, trippy and abstract, it would fit being an art piece tbh. I like the glitch effects. Nice one!
Oct 5 14:09:19 1h 14m Broken Island ♥ 1 Nice one! Compared to the pre-build that I tried you definitely did great with the level design and ratcheted up the difficulty, it felt well balanced but still challenging. The end bit with the missile turrets was intense. The mechanic of the falling away ground was a really cool thing because it forces you to run and gun but you have to be more careful about how you strafe. It would be nice to have a little animation or something when you die, but I can't complain too much, I didn't have a death animation in my entry either. A reloading indicator would be nice too, maybe being able to fire more quickly and adding a bit more heft or juice to firing would be good, also making the missile turrets take a bit less damage would be cool. Also I kind of missed the scary charging tanks from the pre-build. But yeah it was fun little run and gun!
Oct 5 14:42:14 32m 55s Toad Towers ♥ 2 Really cool game, nice chill mood, lot's of puns and funny text. The art was cool, the contracts look great. How did you get that awesome custom loading screen with Godot? Unfortunately the soundtrack sounded awesome but I had some typical Godot audio glitchyness. (Did you try using ogg for the soundtrack / latest version / increasing the output latency / threads?) I struggled with level 3 and couldn't beat it unfortunately, it would be nice if you got the money back when deleting something after placing it down. Yeah very cool game though.
Oct 7 13:27:18 46h 45m Night of Treats ♥ 1 Pretty cool. It's an interesting concept and kinda scary at times. The camera could do with a bit of tweaking but other than that it's a really cool little world you made, there's an interesting aesthetic, some of the animations look awesome and it's pretty funny you have to shoot the monsters in the knees and then they limp.
Oct 7 13:37:11 9m 53s Socio Milk ♥ 1 Very interesting concept, the graphics made it a little bit unclear what to do and where to go, also the invisible walls, but I enjoyed it, good job!
Oct 7 13:50:07 12m 56s Timofei Cauldron ♥ 1 Good job with the visuals! It would be nice to have some instructions even just written on the itch page. It was super hard to get the boxes to the cauldron! It would be really nice to have something happen when you deliver them to make you feel good, like a sound or particle effect. Good job though!
Oct 7 14:02:43 12m 36s Unstable Speed ♥ 1 The graphics are beautiful, I love the way PICO-8 games look. The parallax was cool too. I get that you were trying to make it difficult but because of the small size it was almost impossible to travel faster than the speed from one or two key presses, which is a shame because it felt amazing when you were travelling faster. I'm not sure how you could change that because the viewport is so small though and so asteroids just come out of nowhere. But yeah I really enjoyed it, loved the sounds (except for the kinda ear destroyer when you get to the blue target) and look of the game, great job!
Oct 7 18:33:24 4h 30m Death?Box ♥ 0 Great job on your first LD entry! Some of sprites looked really nice and it was a cool concept, it would be great to see some more gameplay added.
Oct 7 21:02:09 2h 28m Crumble ♥ 1 Well done with this game, you did great finishing and including some nice quality of life touches like a menu, music, and making it quick to restart. It was surprisingly tricky for such a simple concept. Well done!
Oct 8 22:09:28 25h 07m Political misdirection ♥ 1 Well done making that in just a day. It was a really cool concept surprisingly intuitive to play (I failed miserably on my first go but got to 75 on my third go), I just wish I could have watched the crowd change colours as I played cause they looked awesome but I was too busy keeping the balance. I have no idea how you made the crowd do their thing, very cool!
Oct 8 23:12:02 1h 02m A Crowded Place ♥ 1 Great job for your first time! It wasn't such a crowded city after my first run 👀 It was really cool that you added multiple endings, though I wish the end text was slower or I had to click through it like at the start. The pedestrian ai was pretty cool, though I think they were biased towards the bottom left as a crowd ended up there :) The shooting sound / kill sound was a bit glitchy. Nice job though!
Oct 9 20:15:00 21h 02m Gem of Stability ♥ 1 You did a great job with making an expressive character. The game is fun and it is a challenge to multitask shooting the enemies and balance. Great job!
Oct 9 20:34:04 19m 04s Tables & Tremors ♥ 1 Awesome game, really beautiful, fun and satisfying! Unfortunately I got stuck on the level with the double canons but yeah I really enjoyed it. it was a novel and fun game concept.
Oct 9 20:59:36 25m 32s Into the Cone Zone ♥ 0 Brilliant it gives me some burnout meets goat simulator vibes. Pretty funny and satisfying. I like that you can blow up a car with a cookie. I'm not sure why but the audio was only playing for me when I went right to the mouth of the tunnel, then I could hear the "beep beep" "I'm a car" audio which is pretty funny. Nice job
Oct 9 21:13:06 13m 30s Unstable Steep ♥ 2 Nice one, I loved ski free and enjoyed this too, those wish there was a yeti that came and ate you if you fell over. Never mind. Good job!
Oct 9 21:52:36 39m 30s Landslide ♥ 1 It's beautiful and fun and feels really well polished. You made the controls feel good and juicy, just as others have said the falling rocks are too fast to dodge, either them falling slower or having some indication like a shadow of where they are going to fall would really help. Great job!
Oct 9 22:08:33 15m 57s Monocykl ♥ 1 Nice job, we both had unicycle inspiration! :) The game graphics look nice and the concept is cool, but it is a little difficult to control the unicycle, maybe because you aren't able to control pedalling and balance at the same time, and also I think because we are looking backwards at the unicycle I kept on getting my sideways leaning mixed up. It was fun though, well done.
Oct 9 22:17:06 8m 33s Unicycle Balancing ♥ 1 Very cool. It's a great concept and it was well thought out. It felt polished and fun. It looked nice too! I also had a unicycle idea for the theme, I guess it's a popular idea.
Oct 9 22:26:24 9m 18s De-stable-ization / Unstable ♥ 1 Wow this was great, I loved it. It's a great spin on pinball. The destructions were great and I loved the way the trees bounced back! I didn't understand why the ball was speeding up until I realised it was a pinball game. Great dialogue and some nice touches in there. Awesome!
Oct 9 22:41:06 14m 42s Angry Girl Wants Buns ♥ 2 It's a great concept and a very cute game. The art is beautiful and the sound design is good too. I think as others have said it is quite difficult with the movement and puzzles sometimes because the movement can be a bit unpredictable, but that said you did a great job! By the way, why is she so afraid of cats?! --- Ok I had got stuck before writing this comment. Just went back and tried again and completed it this time. Really clever mechanics, the mood swings, the herding cats, it's brilliant. I would be angry if a cat stole my Bao :D
Oct 9 23:26:06 45m 00s Okay & Alright ♥ 3 Wow this was a beautiful little game! A nice little bite sized experience, with really beautiful minimalist art which I loved. I really liked the little touches where the narrative and animation crossed over into the gameplay, like when it was "you can't move" you couldn't move, and when the little orb pulled you up to reach the text. Really nice and out of the box thinking. I totally disagree with the above comment from @hadik I think it looked amazing, it wasn't particularly fun, and it clearly wasn't supposed to be :/ I loved it!
Oct 10 12:49:40 13h 23m Teeter Hero ♥ 2 What a great game. Lovely concept, really beautiful art and challenging gameplay. I really feels polished! The movements and animations feel great, the only thing I was craving was a bit more juice to the slime punching and killing. Really great game though!
Oct 11 13:44:15 24h 54m Trailer Trials ♥ 1 Man this game is awesome. I got far too addicted to getting to the top of the leader board. I think this is the first game where I've actually ever made it to the top 🎉 It's really simple, challenging and fun. I love the art mix between the lovely pixel art bg and the voxel truck, it works perfectly, great job!
