Apr 4 10:01:53 School Grade ♥ 1 Great art and design, its just not very fun. I got frustrated very quickly.
Apr 4 10:15:41 13m 48s Worm Food ♥ 1 Very simple, short little game but I enjoyed it. I think its really cool how you took a 2d concept and brought it into 3d. I think the 3d version is better. The animations are really good for the amount of time you had and the whole thing fits the theme well.
Apr 4 10:22:45 7m 04s REPORT ♥ 0 Awesome 3d graphics and really humorous game but not 'fun' in the traditional sense. I couldn't find a way to lose either, I just got more and more dizzy when I failed. Also, what was with the floating cube? It Kept getting in the way. But besides that, this game fits the theme better than most, so great job with that.
Apr 4 10:50:54 28m 09s Living the Dream ♥ 1 This game is really funny to me for some reason, i think its the nihilism of it all. I could see it being expanded out to be a great game. Would be nice if there was some more audio though.
Apr 4 10:55:07 4m 13s Return to the Glade in the Sky ♥ 0 the windows version seems to be for mac
Apr 4 10:58:15 3m 08s Cast or Blast ♥ 2 version labeled for windows seems to be for web hosting not sure if that was on purpose
Apr 4 11:38:12 39m 57s Evacuate the city ♥ 1 Its a good concept just very slow. I think if you had more time you could improving the pacing. The evacuation animation is really well done. With things going on in Ukraine it seems very timely. If anything this is a neat proof of concept
Apr 4 12:34:33 56m 21s SuperShot ♥ 1 Reminds me of superhot, but i like how you can throw tables and dash. I would be interested to see what other gameplay mechanics you come up with if you worked on this further
Apr 4 12:51:45 17m 12s Delay the Zombies ♥ 1 While the gameplay seems unpolished on first glance there is actually a lot here that is done and done well. I think perhaps the scope of the game was too large. I couldn't figure out a way to get ammo for the other guns and there are a ton of glitches. For your first submission its really good and bonus points for pausing the music when the game is paused!
Apr 4 13:30:42 38m 57s Playground Panic ♥ 1 I like how the graphics look like something out of a school whiteboard or something. Its all very thematically cohesive. Audio is hilarious and so is the premise, the gameplay just leaves something to be desired. it gets repetitive VERY quickly
Apr 4 13:35:13 4m 31s 5 More Minutes ♥ 1 Game is relatable, and well designed. Gameplay is good, and sound design is also good. Some of the sprites look a little wonky, but it comes off as charming. Great submission, definitely one of the best I've played so far.
Apr 4 13:43:33 8m 20s I Am Coward ♥ 2 This game is really bizarre but I like it. Its just very short. I wish you made it so it was infinite or had some random generation past a certain point. Also I'm not sure how it fits the theme? Maybe you can explain
Apr 4 13:56:58 13m 25s Doom's Peak ♥ 1 The character controller feels very much like you're riding a snowboard, so good job with it, it was definitely worth that time investment. Its a very important skill to be able to prioritize whats important in a project with a short time. Yeah there could be more features potentially but the gameplay is solid even though im terrible at it.
Apr 4 14:25:57 28m 59s CryptoHunk Market Platform ♥ 4 Its a shame that it abruptly ends, its quite original and I wanted to keep playing The UI is a bit confusing when you consider that your only options really are buy and sell. I think for future projects you should try and prioritize better what goes into the final product. The social media stuff adds almost nothing to the gameplay or mood. The humor though... on point. I'd watch a crypto mockumentary with you as the director.
Apr 4 14:43:31 17m 34s Camelot's Defense ♥ 1 I beat the game. I was surprised, you managed to put a lot in this game. I was so sad when *spoilers* Lancelot and Arthur die.
Apr 5 03:44:50 13h 01m All grown up? ♥ 3 I think I did everything? First I Cleaned the room and made the pie, but then I remembered the theme and thought I did something wrong. Then I went on a rampage and killed the cat, kill the grandma. Its pretty funny how morally opposite those things are. Good submission
Apr 5 04:01:53 17m 03s Malpractice ♥ 6 Between this and 5 more minutes, I think these games have the best application of the theme. But this one has better graphics whereas that game has better audio. Thats my only critique really is that the audio design left something to be desired. My patient died to the hitman coming in when i thought he was the doctor. Is that how he thanks me after saving him from the meteor strike? Oh well!
Apr 5 04:07:43 5m 50s Department Of Demise ♥ 6 Everything seems very planned out, and polished. The idea of working in an office that decides when people die is innovative and funny. The voice over does a good job of explaining what to do, and you have a lot of resources to help explain the rules of the game, but despite that, I still struggled with figuring out what to do. That took a little from my enjoyment of the game but once I figured it out I had a good time with it! Good work
Apr 5 04:13:23 5m 40s Help your Friend to escape the inevitable Ghost in a spooky Forest! ♥ 2 Sound design? Amazing how the music changes as the situation gets more tense! Graphics and theme? Match very well, fun look and animations are smooth! Fun and Innovation? Very unique concept and gameplay loop was enjoyable! 5 stars great work
Apr 5 04:20:44 7m 21s ZEZ ♥ 2 Every aspect of this game is well balanced, the graphics, audio, application of the theme. It all fits together very nicely. Obviously you have a talent in terms of planning and organizing a project. That being said, nothing really stuck out in this game that made it feel special. Just killing generic crystal enemies as a generic crystal figure, its missing a certain charm that I think it could have had if you used a little more imagination with the character design. Great submission for a game jam though, and I enjoyed the few minutes I spent playing!
Apr 5 04:30:24 9m 40s Whoa! It's like a space game or something! ♥ 1 I can tell this game was made by a dreamer cause its so imaginative and wonderful, a short game but deep in lore and worldbuilding. Like others have said, the GUI and game itself are not intuitive but the core gameplay loop of going to different planets and fighting monsters along the way is itself engaging, and even though I didn't know what I was buying or harvesting half the time, I still had fun doing it. By the way, if I inherited the ship from my grandpa whats he doing giving me advice at the start of the game?
Apr 5 04:51:28 21m 04s Starburst Force ♥ 2 Would have been nice to have waves or different enemies, as far I could tell the same few ships kept spawning in the same spot. But in terms of the core gameplay loop its solid. Nice work on the menus too, they are really good.
Apr 5 05:15:30 24m 02s Battle Cards ♥ 0 I couldn't survive for very long because my cards kept getting glitched. But the fact that you even made a card game for a game jam is awesome. Not just that, its a fun one, when it works. Some people have said it doesn't match the theme but i have to disagree. When i play a card game its inevitable that I lose.
Apr 5 05:30:33 15m 03s PRESSURE ♥ 2 Great graphics, fun game, I died. I also send my anthropomorphic fox to a watery grave when all the pipes in my house burst
Apr 5 05:53:06 22m 33s You Are A Bomb ♥ 1 I am be a bomb, but so is this game.
Apr 5 07:42:06 1h 49m Void Prison ♥ 4 Great game hope you win
Apr 5 11:49:44 4h 07m Way before death ♥ 1 I came back to give this game a higher score. Blant is a national treasure!
Apr 5 11:50:51 1m 07s The Manbutton Project ♥ 1 Good but Not as good as blant 🤣 😂 😅
Apr 5 19:54:54 8h 04m Large Number Collider ♥ 1 Mesmerizing game for sure, but then you knock out of it and youre like "wow i just spent half an hour throwing numbered balls at each other"
Apr 6 10:49:41 14h 54m My Story ♥ 1 Really cool game, or story. Sam seems very friendly and the logic behind the pong game I imagine was fun to code. AI and the inevitability of the singularity was an interesting approach to take. I also like that you included multiple control options. All in all great work!
