| Apr 6 20:39:55 | Extinction is inevitable | ♥ 1 | Nice game! It kind of made me think about the Conway's Game of Life. It's interesting to see the game evolving "by itself", with just some player inputs here and there. Would definitely like a more advanced version :) | |
| Apr 6 20:54:56 | 15m 01s | The March to heaven | ♥ 2 | Beautiful! Sad story, but death is inevitable indeed! I particularly enjoy the concept art you put on your page, it made me enjoy the graphics even more. Also, I really liked the music, perfectly fit with the mood of a visual novel. Nice job. |
| Apr 6 21:14:54 | 19m 58s | Chess at the End of Time | ♥ 1 | A masterpiece! Gameplay, graphics, sound, camera, story. Very hard though, as you mentioned. I keep it on my laptop and will play again for sure! |
| Apr 6 21:45:50 | 30m 56s | STUDY LADY (cookie mix) | ♥ 2 | Very addictive, like a good old cookie clicker :) Great art too, graphics and music fit perfectly together, even with the super repetitive aspect, I felt like I was in an interactive City Pop clip, I genuinely loved it. |
| Apr 7 13:05:42 | 15h 19m | Snooze | ♥ 1 | Very simple but enjoyable concept! I agree with the fourth wall comment just above, clever idea! The realization is neat, nice graphics and sound, congrats! |
| Apr 7 13:32:53 | 27m 11s | Snooze | ♥ 1 | Nice and funny entry! Really liked the ability to slap the mice (the sound is so satisfying). The final boss was unexpected :) I wish there was more! |
| Apr 7 20:44:16 | 7h 11m | Tax Mage | ♥ 1 | Very nice platformer! Graphically impressive and fun to play. The small defaults have already been mentioned several times, so I won't insist, but apart from that, it's all good! |
| Apr 7 21:08:37 | 24m 21s | Orbles | ♥ 4 | Yes indeed, very solid and impressive game! It almost feels like a whole complete game. As I read above, the monsters feel scary and funny at the same time, they made me think of a Ghibli movie character :) Not much to say, but congrats! |
| Apr 8 12:00:39 | 14h 52m | Kitastrophe | ♥ 0 | The main interest of the submission to me is obviously the mmo aspect. Very impressive indeed ! And very refreshing game, as being able to play with other players in a Ludum is pretty rare (however I have to mention the fact that I was all alone on the server when I played ahah). I really enjoy the originality of the idea in this context, not to mention the very neat implementation, with neat graphics and audio. Congrats! |
| Apr 8 13:37:54 | 1h 37m | No Way Out | ♥ 1 | Very nice game, nice graphics and stressful pace! Traps are various and we always wait for the next one (with a small disapointment when nothing comes actually ahah). Unexpectedly, I found the choice between 3 random words quite funny :) Congrats! |
| Apr 11 06:43:22 | 65h 05m | Pizza Gal | ♥ 1 | Captivating game! The concept is simple but not so easy. Is there an optimal strategy that you would recommand? Nice graphics and music too. The only minor problem I would mention is the fact that UI is not very accessible to the eye, as you always have to focus on the moving arrow. Then, when I finished the game, I saw my final score and couldn't relate it to what was done before, nor evaluating if it was a good score. Maybe adding a grade could be beneficial? |
| Apr 11 06:57:31 | 14m 09s | Screen of Death | ♥ 1 | Funny and unique! The old school vibe is amazing, and mini games are well-chosen given the little problem we progressively meet. The only aspect I would criticize is the theme, as I don't have the feeling to "delay" the inevitable. Apart from that, it's all good! |
| Apr 11 08:11:59 | 1h 14m | Climate Crisis | ♥ 2 | Solid entry, well balanced! I would say that this way of interpreting the theme was inevitable :) But nicely implemented. Really liked the low poly style. |
| Apr 11 09:47:57 | 1h 35m | M.A.D.D. | ♥ 1 | Fun gameplay! I like how messy the map becomes after a few seconds. Maybe too easy to build a fortress and wait for the end of the counter, but quite satisfying at the same time :) |
| Apr 11 09:59:50 | 11m 53s | Dr. Tantalus Quest for World Domination | ♥ 0 | Funny concept (which could have fit another commonly seen theme like "You're not the hero"). I enjoyed taking my time to put the traps as diabolically as possible, and then see the hero making hours to getting out of it. However, as mentionned by the first comment, you can also put nothing, wait in a corner for the hero to come and shoot him for 5 minutes. But I think this is a minor bug to fix :) Or maybe you could remove the feature of controlling someone at the end, and just observe the effect of your traps. Could be fun as well! |
| Apr 11 10:10:03 | 10m 13s | Snowcastle Meltdown | ♥ 1 | Nice take on the theme! And really cool game for a first LD! As said in the comment above, a lot of potential in this idea. Maybe some in-game instructions would have been nice (to understand that you have to talk to people to get water) Also, we are not really invited to get farther in the map, as every pond seems to give the same amount of ice. But this is just tuning! |
| Apr 11 12:54:38 | 2h 44m | Make a Manga Series but It's a Fishing Game | ♥ 1 | The fishing mechanic is nice, but the surrounding plot is even nicer! Music and graphics fit good together. A enjoyable moment of relaxation. Thanks! |
| Apr 11 14:58:01 | 2h 03m | Giraffe o'Clock | ♥ 1 | What a game! Very polished and great level design! The Dance Dance Revolution moments are great too (quite hard though...), with the funny girage animation :) The idea of a platformer with double jump and dash is not so original, but when it's so well executed, it's always a pleasure. Great entry. |
| Apr 11 15:20:03 | 22m 02s | Bossfight But- (READ DESC PLS) | ♥ 1 | Very hard (too much?), but addictive! Graphics and sounds are well polished. Like others said, because of the difficulty, I am more or less just grabbing as much coins as possible before getting hit randomly by something I couldn't anticipate. And then buying health, and then doing the same strategy. Maybe by reducing the player's speed it could be manageable. But anyway, this is still a great entry! |
| Apr 11 15:42:22 | 22m 19s | U.A.D.S - Untitled Asteroid Defence Simulator | ♥ 0 | Good job, well balanced and addictive gameplay! Very impressive for a first game jam. Congrats! |
| Apr 12 10:04:57 | 18h 22m | Somnipathy | ♥ 4 | Very moody game, I enjoyed it a lot! I love point and click games, so it's nice to have a good representative here. Graphics and sounds are neats. The only thing is that it seems quite buggy. I had a lot of weird sound transitions, and the game finally freezed as I was going in another room. But I know what it is, we don't always have the time we want in a game jam :) |
| Apr 12 12:52:00 | 2h 47m | Run Do | ♥ 1 | Really liked the graphic touch. Same as the previous comment, it lacks something to understand what to do or not to do. Promising entry anyway! |
| Apr 12 21:42:41 | 8h 50m | Cardboard People on Fire | ♥ 1 | Like others said, great experience, nice graphics and sound and atmosphere. I particularly liked the contrast between the carboard style of the city and the realistic aspect of the sea, the player, the fire, water, etc. The whole thing resonates like a nihilistic experience to me, people get on fire, that's not good or wrong, that's just it, you can try to do something but eventually can't win, so you may as well take look at the sunset with a cool lounge music in your ears :) I like it! |
| Apr 13 09:54:50 | 12h 12m | Out of Controls? | ♥ 2 | Very cool concept! But very hard at the same time. At each try I get lost pretty early, actually as soon as I get hit once, it's hard to get back on my feet and go on. Maybe it would have been nice to ease the process, at least in the beginning. I would definitely enjoy a post jam version with a refinement on this point :) |
| Apr 13 10:09:01 | 14m 11s | Galactic Crash | ♥ 1 | Interesting mini games entry. Congrats for your first jam! It's also very nice to include a tutorial with a reminder of the controls (otherwise it's always tedious when playing to go back on the presentation page to read instructions). |
| Apr 13 14:14:35 | 4h 05m | HANG UP! | ♥ 3 | One of the most beautiful game I have seen on this LD for sure. Very polished game on the art side. The game is quite simple but fun to play, with a unique gameplay (also had two different controls in two sessions, one with the whole keyboard, and one with the arrows + WASD, the second one felt more DDR-ish but brings some variety). I'm proud of being able to sold something to a dog :) |
| Apr 18 15:17:38 | 121h 03m | Kiwis Can't Fly | ♥ 1 | Very lovely animations |
| Apr 19 09:39:07 | 18h 21m | Super Mowser Bros | ♥ 1 | Awesome! Don't have much to say, very fun to play, nice graphics, catchy music, I love it! Other comments already mentionned the UX problems, and the possible improvements on the audio side (to give more feedback and improve the mood). It would definitely deserve a post-post-jam version, with even more refinements and construction options. |
