| Apr 5 16:25:58 | Comet | ♥ 1 | I really enjoyed this game! The concept is great, the gameplay is really fluid, the art is beautiful as always and the soundtrack really fits. My only feedback is that the time delay could be more noticeable and decrease as the game progresses. As it is, it doesn't feel like you can delay the inevitable much at all. Anyway, congrats!! | |
| Apr 5 19:40:05 | 3h 14m | Whispers Of The Heart | ♥ 3 | Beautiful game! I really loved the artstyle, which reminded me a bit of Don't Starve and was what drew me in at first. Together with the slow soundtrack, it set the mood perfectly for your concept of death, will and memories. The stories along the way were very touching. However, I found the gameplay a little repetitive and couldn't get to the end in my first few playthroughs, since the flower minigame was pretty difficult for me! |
| Apr 5 21:53:04 | 2h 12m | Space Ninja | ♥ 1 | First of all, amazing graphics!! I'm impressed how you could make such a polished game in such little time, and with fancy features too, like a leaderboard and the glowing slicer! I think the gameplay could use a little tweaking though. As it is, the meteors come at pretty regular intervals and are too many, so slicing them is pretty easy and just becomes a constant thing. I think these kinds of games are more fun when you have to be at the edge of your seat, looking for surprise attacks, and change your strategy on the go. So less meteors, coming at different speeds to surprise you, and with traps among them might make it more fun. I would also suggest a smaller earth that gives you more room to slice! Overall a really nice game. Congrats! |
| Apr 5 22:18:35 | 25m 31s | Tatertot Towers | ♥ 0 | Really loved this game. The art is really cute, with a very inventive angle. The sound design is wonderful. The gameplay is very fun, although a bit on the hard side, I feel like it's something I could play for hours. A very polished game overall for so little time! Something I feel would help with the difficulty is just a liiittle bit more time between each wave to learn the new mechanics. It's very hard to read the tutorial and learn what the new materials do when you're rushing to build your defenses against the next wave. |
| Apr 6 03:07:31 | 4h 48m | Giraffe o'Clock | ♥ 2 | This game has to be one of my favorites so far!! Very witty humor, super cute graphics and great level design, with a well thought out difficulty progression! Great work!! |
| Apr 6 03:20:56 | 13m 25s | The Inevitable Sinking | ♥ 4 | Very fun game with a simple and innovative concept that was wonderfully executed. Art is very polished and well done, plus super inventive that you managed to come up with so many different obstacles! |
| Apr 7 13:00:14 | 33h 39m | Super Mowser Bros | ♥ 2 | I really really liked the concept and humour of this game, and the art is absolutely wonderful!! Like others said, though, I also found it too easy and ended up beign able to build castles waaay ahead of Bario, which took the fun out of it. And I didn't like having to drag tokens all the way to the other side of the screen, but, otherwise, I though clicking the arrows to change screens was a very inventive interaction and added to the rush of it! I can really understand the challenge of balancing out the game during the time of the jam. My own game also had problems with balancing and lack of time allocated for playtesting haha. Imo it's one of the hardest things on a jam, when you're too focused on finishing assets and features there's never enough time to test and balance it out! :( |
| Apr 7 16:13:19 | 3h 13m | Heal me, please! | ♥ 3 | Hello! I really liked the concept and artwork of this game! However, I could not play it properly because it didn't fit my screen, even on full screen mode. Reading the comments, no one else seems to have had that problem so I don't know what happened :( I'm playing on windows 10, chrome, 1366x768px screenchrome_cSfeeuxeAR.png Just commenting to let you know of this issue! |
| Apr 7 20:21:50 | 4h 08m | Carpe Diem | ♥ 1 | Really cool game! I wasn't able to get very far bc I'm not good at these types of games, but the gameplay is really fun, the graphics are amazing and the overall mood is just spot on. Well done! |
| Apr 9 22:25:06 | 50h 03m | Shoal | ♥ 2 | Very fun game! The art style is wonderful, the music really sets the tone, the challenges along the way are very creative and it has infinite replayability! I really don't have any constructive feedback, as I think this was perfectly executed for the time of the jam! Great job! |
| Apr 9 22:43:44 | 18m 38s | Down to the Wire | ♥ 5 | Really cool game. This is one of the most original ideas I've seen so far. The art is great, the difficulty progression is very well done, and the music sets the mood perfectly. At first I thought the time was very forgiving, but when I got to a level I couldn't wrap my head around, I really started to feel the pressure of the timer! haha I got up to stage 21 but definitely gonna play again later bc it's so much fun! |
| Apr 9 23:36:46 | 53m 02s | Different Strokes | ♥ 3 | Very unique take on the theme! And so well executed, from the satisfying art editor, the characters' witty dialogues, down to the very details like the brush stroke sound and different room layouts. All that along the technical feat of storing all user generated art! I didn't get tired of wandering in the gallery until sadly my game crashed from lack of memory. This has to be my favorite game of this edition for sure!! |
| Apr 10 02:43:35 | 3h 06m | Over the Rainbow Bridge | ♥ 1 | Very cute, emotional game. I really love the graphics, music and the well-written story. My only feedback is I would have liked to see more in terms of interactivity and actually be able to delay the inevitable, as I think it would make the experience all the more emotional. It's a sweet little game nonetheless. Congrats on your first ludum dare!! |
| Apr 10 02:52:22 | 8m 47s | 1 Man 6 Bullets | ♥ 3 | Very interesting take on the genre that fits the theme really well. The mood was set perfectly with the awesome art and music and the game itself is really fun, with easy to understand mechanics, map layouts that add to the experience and infinite replayability! |
| Apr 10 03:07:34 | 15m 12s | Venting Machine | ♥ 1 | 1112m! This was a really fun and complete game for 48h! Clever concept, great art and polished mechanics. It took me awhile to understand the controls and also that some girls help me while others get in the way, but once I understood how to play I felt like I could keep playing it forever! |
| Apr 10 03:33:22 | 25m 48s | Cat in the Bag | ♥ 3 | Cool idea + great graphics, soundtrack and humour! This game caught my attention because it has an opposite premise to my own game, which is that adventurers always have plot armor and inevitably win haha. I really enjoyed the story and all it's fun twists! My only feedback is, for some of the choices, I feel like the challenge + setting could be established a bit better, with more detail, on the dialogue, because the outcomes sometimes feel a bit too random, instead of something absurd that still makes sense with the information you had before, if you really think about it (something like the Henry Stickmin games). Also, might me nice to have a button to reset a turn or the game could randomize some scenarios so that we don't have to replay the whole thing every time we get an item wrong! Otherwise, really liked it! The ending killed me lol |
| Apr 10 03:39:34 | 6m 12s | We Need To Talk | ♥ 2 | Super cute game!! I love everything about it, the theme, the art, the music, the possible answers! I got to 70 but will try again later! |
| Apr 10 03:52:33 | 12m 59s | Cup Half Full | ♥ 1 | Really fun game!! It's a pretty original take on this type of game (what's it called? annoying tetris? hahaha) to move the pieces with the mouse! Also felt like the difficulty was well balanced and the graphics were pleasing to the eyes. My only gripe is it didn't fit my screen (1366x768)! :( Otherwise, had a ton of fun with it! |
| Apr 10 15:09:15 | 11h 16m | Clear Skies with a Chance of Meteors | ♥ 1 | Very fun! It's a pretty simple idea but wonderfully executed, with clear and concise controls+UI. It took me a while to understand all the factors the cards controlled, but after that I couldn't stop playing! It's pretty cool how many factors you were able to add and how they all interact, with many interesting trade-offs! I especially liked the acceleration factor. The only thing I missed was some background music to set the mood! I got to 195 people saved in the end! |
| Apr 10 15:21:41 | 12m 26s | Un-Rooted | ♥ 3 | I got to 83s! I think this is the most original take on the theme I've seen so far and the game is just pure chaos! XD Well executed down to the details, with the fun dialogues and I can't believe you managed to include a character creation haha. Really well done, I had a lot of fun! |
| Apr 10 15:29:56 | 8m 15s | Unapocalyptic | ♥ 1 | Look, I've seen quite a few "end of the world" games this jam, but none of them with so many different end of the world scenarios like this one haha Had a blast playing the game! I think the only think it's missing is a background soundtrack to sustain the mood, and maybe some other mechanics to make it even more chaotic, like a maybe jump, if you plan on expanding it post-jam! |
| Apr 10 15:51:33 | 21m 37s | Male Pattern Boldness | ♥ 1 | Super fun and original take on the theme hahaha I really liked all the possible items, the cumbersome-ness of the controls and all the different scenarios! Only nitpick is, in some levels, the white font of the score is unreadable against the clouds in the background. Otherwise, pretty awesome game, congrats!! |
| Apr 10 16:02:47 | 11m 14s | Will There Bee Another? | ♥ 2 | Super cute game with amazing art style and dialogue!! I agree with some other commenters that adding some more music and sfx would have really made a difference, but otherwise I really love it. Also, as a "bee" myself, I really liked the character's name haha ;) |
| Apr 10 16:32:10 | 29m 23s | Marin and The Sinking Kingdom | ♥ 1 | Really liked this game, from concept to execution (beautiful art, music, and I really like the story!). However, I found it pretty difficult. Early on, I wasn't able to solve the puzzles quickly enough, but then was able to ride up with the water until it wasn't possible anymore. I feel like I would have liked it better if the game either just killed me and threw me right back into it or maybe if the water started slower and got progressively faster, with a more gradual increase in difficulty! But anyway, I could always start over so it was a great experience! |
| Apr 10 16:52:53 | 20m 43s | QUADRATORUM | ♥ 1 | Really loved this game! The story, the graphics and the rhythmic shooting are all very satisfying and the ending is just :chefskiss: The diminishing world size is very fitting with the theme, however I felt the difficulty level was a bit backwards, as the small world seemed to make it easier to shoot the enemies. Also, the game felt pretty easy overall, since there was no indication that I ever took any actual damage from the enemies. I liked it though, because I'm usually terrible at this types of games, so the short, easy and story-centered experience really catered to my tastes! haha |
| Apr 10 17:30:04 | 37m 11s | Influence an Inevitable Election | ♥ 0 | This is a very interesting take on the theme and the gameplay is very fun! Here are a few suggestions for improvement, if you plan to rework this post-jam, since I think this game concept has a lot of potential: - Make it possible for us to loop between or re-read the candidates' opinions. They are too easy to forget; - Would also be nice to re-read all of their opinions, not just the ones on the latest topic; - Let us select the comment in the same screen where the tweet is displayed. The way it is, it's easy to forget what the tweet was and there are a few unnecessary clicks to reach the selection screen; If you can, I also think adding some polish like voice acting, animated graphics and button feedbacks would go a long way! And also a few more rounds of influence would be nice! |
| Apr 10 17:41:59 | 11m 55s | MAGICAL JUGGLER EXTRAORDINAIRE | ♥ 0 | Reeeally love this game!! Such a fun and simple gameplay and I just love all the variety in spells, achievements, challenges and multipliers! The art and music is just delightful, plus you've got a great UI and a tutorial! I feel like you achieved so much for a compo game! Definitely an all-5 stars for me. Very well done! |
| Apr 11 00:07:40 | 6h 25m | Earworm Jam | ♥ 3 | Really cool game!! The idea is super original, the song is so good it's, well, a earworm, the gameplay is really engaging and the humor+mood+graphics are priceless (so many little things going on in the desert <3) !! I had a ton of fun with it. Here's my high score!!! chrome_IlMCFzRATC.png |
