| Apr 5 15:02:10 | Delay Bedtime | ♥ 1 | Very cute. The sound effects helped a lot with conveying the game. | |
| Apr 5 15:03:01 | 51s | Click to Continue | ♥ 1 | Really cool take on the theme, clever premise. |
| Apr 5 19:29:45 | 4h 26m | Tidal Wave | ♥ 1 | Cool idea with some nice polish on it! A more fleshed out version of this idea could be really fun. What's here is a bit bare bones (understandable, it's a game jam), but I think what you do have was done with care. |
| Apr 5 21:45:49 | 2h 16m | Tax Evaders | ♥ 3 | I like the idea of being able to choose how much risk I'm taking on. If you were going to work on the game more, maybe you could put some sort of time pressure on it to give the player incentive to grab a lot of money really fast at certain points. Good work! |
| Apr 6 05:12:04 | 7h 26m | Handbot in... Scrap Heap | ♥ 4 | The artstyle here is fantastic! I found throwing things a little finnicky, but I think the game has a really nice vibe, the art and animation works really really well. Love the sound effects too. |
| Apr 6 05:24:06 | 12m 02s | Pissboy! | ♥ 1 | Love the game, really funny. I wondered if someone was going to do something like this with the theme, glad you went through wit it. Great concept with a decent bit of polish on it! |
| Apr 6 05:44:26 | 20m 20s | Routine Medical Examination | ♥ 3 | Fun stuff! Neat little physics puzzles, and a humorous little story wrapping it all up. Had a good time playing, a little bit finnicky as others have mentioned but still fun. |
| Apr 6 05:54:33 | 10m 07s | 1 Man 6 Bullets | ♥ 5 | Man, this is cool! The intro/ending art is really cool, and I love the concept! Some nice gameplay polish too, the slowdown and visual effects help keep clear what's going on. Great job! |
| Apr 6 06:10:14 | 15m 41s | Vampire Survivors-like | ♥ 0 | Would've liked some background art so it'd be easier to see what I was moving. That said, a nice little Vampire Survivors game. Definitely easy to get lost in and play for too long. |
| Apr 6 06:21:42 | 11m 28s | Battery Low | ♥ 6 | Can't say enough good things about the art and sound design here. Loved the robot's speaking voice. Short, simple, very cute. |
| Apr 6 06:26:14 | 4m 32s | FINAL BONES | ♥ 2 | Really great idea, and some great art to boot! Love the attack animations. |
| Apr 6 06:34:06 | 7m 52s | Keep Up | ♥ 1 | Pretty simple idea but some nice polish where it counts. Adding drum sounds to everything was a nice touch. |
| Apr 7 17:18:22 | 34h 44m | The Subtle Hourglass | ♥ 1 | The rewind mechanic is so cool! I agree that the other parts of the game could use more polish, but the core idea here is really solid. Seems like the sort of thing that's just begging to be expanded upon, but this makes for a nice proof of concept. |
| Apr 8 15:57:44 | 22h 39m | Rocket Lawnchair | ♥ 1 | Fun concept, and I think the audio adds a lot! I'm terrible at the game though (though I improved once I switched to a controller, as my keyboard like others have mentioned couldn't do all four inputs) |
| Apr 8 16:03:17 | 5m 33s | Siphon | ♥ 1 | I think some of the feedback the game provides is a little confusing and feel a bit slide-y, but you've got a bunch of moves and an solid aesthetic nailed down! |
| Apr 8 16:31:44 | 28m 27s | Drama Crusade | ♥ 1 | Not sure if the 3D part broke, if I couldn't figure out what to do, or if it's supposed to end there. Not sure I understood what was going on narratively, but definitely a creepy mood, and the 3D idea is exciting. |
| Apr 8 17:06:09 | 34m 25s | Dungeon Crawl | ♥ 1 | Clever design! Really like how a timer lets you balance out other pros and cons and lead to interesting decisions. I opened up the itch page at was checking that while playing, so I missed the first time that you were trying to get the timer to run out. Might suggest mentioning it on the itch page itself, like you do on this page. Really neat idea though, great job! |
| Apr 8 17:19:25 | 13m 16s | Never Alone | ♥ 1 | Neat online features, really cool idea! |
| Apr 8 17:29:26 | 10m 01s | Love Finds A Way | ♥ 1 | I like the concept here, cool idea for a puzzle game. I think it fits the theme really well too, setting yourself up as a subscription service serves that really well in a humorous way. Seconding what others have said about it taking a bit to figure out the game, and the game getting much more complex in the second level, but I think the concept and execution are otherwise both really good! |
| Apr 8 17:35:54 | 6m 28s | Pompeii Ludum Dare 50 | ♥ 3 | Agreed with others that the meteor is frustrating, wasn't sure what I was meant to do. I think the art is impressive though. Your credits page was blank when I opened it in game though, I wonder what happened? |
| Apr 8 17:44:17 | 8m 23s | STONEHOLD | ♥ 2 | Love what this game is doing, really executing on the core slash-and-dodge gameplay in a nice clean way, could see myself spending too much time on this. Art and sound is effective, and impressive to see online features! I saw you could head through another player's path, but I wasn't really sure what that changed, did I miss something? |
| Apr 8 18:12:58 | 28m 41s | Different Strokes | ♥ 2 | This is fantastic! Such a elegant idea, and you executed every part of it beautifully! So impressed by this. |
| Apr 17 22:08:36 | 219h 55m | Web of Lies | ♥ 1 | Cute game, some fun writing that definitely hit close to home. Agree with what others have said that some sort of feedback or win condition would have helped give something to aim for, though just learning the dialogue trees and having better answers for future attempts was fun |
| Apr 17 22:15:01 | 6m 25s | Crystal Castle | ♥ 1 | Took me a bit to get the hang of it, but I think the game is pretty fun! Definitely a nice take on the theme, and the graphics are very charming. |
| Apr 17 22:35:25 | 20m 24s | Stone Sabbath | ♥ 3 | Love the aesthetics of the 3D models and animations, the dialogue at the beginning tells me you all must have had a fun time making it. I found the boss fight very satisfying in a sort of microgame kind of way, fun to see a lot of the core principles of these sorts of games distilled down into something small. The shrines letting you delay things naturally prompts exploration which I think works very well. |
| Apr 17 22:38:21 | 2m 56s | A Nerd's Delay | ♥ 1 | Cute entry, I think the sin attack adds a lot to the game. Smart of you to make the hazards flash red, would have had a much harder time playing without that. |
| Apr 17 22:49:55 | 11m 34s | Birdless In The Zombie Apocalypse | ♥ 1 | Love the title. I had some trouble picking up the items in the game but the powerups trading damage for stamina use was a neat idea. |
