Apr 16 17:28:11 Pier Pressure ♥ 1 Really stylish game, with an enjoyable gameplay mechanic and catchy music. I survived for quite a bit the first round, and just as I thought I had seen what the game was all about an upgrade system showed up. That was just what this game needed to go from good to great. I really like it!
Apr 16 17:42:10 13m 59s A duck on ice ♥ 1 Reminds me of your game from LD46, you have a knack for making games more interesting with your voice over! Unfortunately this game seemed to lag quite a bit on my computer but I managed to make it to the end anyways :) the fan added a lot to the gameplay and was fun to use! Good job on this!
Apr 18 14:52:52 45h 10m Embers ♥ 1 The sound effects are so satisfying! Would really like a timer for the fire going out.
Apr 18 14:57:56 5m 04s Kore o Kawasu ♥ 2 It's very simple, but the visuals add something unique to it! Unfortunately it lagged hard on my non-gaming computer, so I couldn't really get a feel of the difficulty or controls :/
Apr 18 15:08:47 10m 51s M O R E ♥ 1 Wow, did not expect this to be a HORROR GAME! I had the same reaction as @markymark 😂 the game was fun, albeit a bit too difficult imo. Did not make it very far any round. The effect that starts when you're under 10 seconds is great, really makes you feel the pressure. I also really like how you carry the dudes, it looks quite funny. For some reason I couldn't pick the dudes up after a few rounds, when I clicked space they just laid on the ground. Restarting the game fixed it.
Apr 18 15:17:38 8m 51s The Heat is On ♥ 1 As others have said, very interesting game! I really like the music. Unfortunately - as others also have said - it was a bit unclear what I was meant to do. Pushing the fridges into the oven room was pretty frustrating as they often wouldn't go through the doors, and I'm not sure if that even helped. This game could become something great if you added some QoL improvements and a tutorial!
Apr 18 15:27:59 10m 21s Last Night at Tax fraud ♥ 1 Really nice game! I like how varied the gameplay was, and the looming tax man definitely raised the tension, resulting in me being absorbed into the game and raising the mood quite a lot! I was a bit unsure when he was knocking at my door and when he was knocking at someone else's door, I thought I had it under control but then I got jumpscared 😂 great job on this guys!
Apr 18 15:58:36 30m 37s MooshiMooshi ♥ 0 First time I've played an LD game that is strictly a 3D platforming challenge, and I have to say I enjoyed it! The suspenseful music and sound design really added to the mood. There was a good variety in the level design. My one wish is that the colors wouldn't be so intense in certain parts, where the whole background is just one solid bright color.
Apr 18 16:05:03 6m 27s Linda, it's time to go ♥ 1 Nice game! Had fun with it for a bit but it needs more variety to stay interesting imo, like a different type of enemy.
Apr 18 16:23:04 18m 01s Deny the Illegible ♥ 1 Nice game, the atmosphere feels very calm and peaceful even though you're on a timer. The music is lovely! Two notes: - I think the camera movement should be the other way around; when moving you should see 2/3 of the screen in front of you. - Having the player animation move his sprite back and forth while the actual player object moves forward makes his movements look a bit jittery.
Apr 18 16:45:47 22m 43s Burger Nightmares ♥ 0 This game has a lot of potential! I had fun with it for a bit but in the end I did feel like the difficulty hindered my enjoyment. That being said, I don't think this game needs much tweaking to make it great! For example - like you wrote in the description - a smaller grill and overall game area would be great. Nice job!!
Apr 18 17:07:58 22m 11s Delay Decay ♥ 1 That was a lovely little experience! I really like your art style, and you've got the gameplay, sound and story to complement it! One of my favorite parts was how the rabbits flashed red when you could take them. That kind of clarity is always greatly appreciated! Awesome job, one of my favs this LD!
Apr 18 17:16:00 8m 02s Joke is on you ♥ 2 Played the game jam version, was pretty confused about what I was supposed to do. Played around with it for a bit but still couldn't really figure it out... It was either talk for an eternity or get punched. From reading the comments it seems like you guys really improved the game for the post jam version, so congrats on that!
Apr 18 17:24:46 8m 46s Push, Rethink, Undo, Repeat ♥ 2 Really cool game! I was impressed with it all the way through. The puzzles are well designed, the music is great (I especially love the horror movie-esque loop that starts when you're low on time, amazing addition), and to top it off some nice variety with the random rooms! Very well done!
Apr 18 17:47:00 22m 14s Deck the Zombies ♥ 1 Card games usually don't speak to me, but I ended up enjoying this game more than I thought I would! The cards are very interesting and varied, and it feels like you actually have to use your head to strategize. I especially like the cards that affected the next card, and among those I think mirror was the coolest. Great job on this!
Apr 18 18:29:34 42m 34s It Will Fall ♥ 1 I like it! Like @jamie-slowgrove I thought the keyboard was there to indicate the controls at first 😂 it has a relaxing atmosphere which I appreciate. The graphics look good and are creative. One thing I found annoying was how the items would sometimes fall down like you expect and sometimes crash down like a meteor, destroying my whole tower :( overall though it was an enjoyable experience, well done!
Apr 18 18:38:50 9m 16s Out of Time ♥ 1 I like how the red squares stay, makes for a very natural difficulty increase.
Apr 18 18:49:21 10m 31s Battery Low ♥ 1 Cool game! Would've liked a simple map or a bit more variation in the environment to help navigate.
Apr 18 18:56:02 6m 41s Spiraland ♥ 0 Very cool concept! Like others have said, the graphics are cool but the mid-air controls are kind of unpredictable. I like the jump sound effect, which is good, as you're gonna be jumping quite a few times in a platformer. Good job!
Apr 18 18:57:47 1m 45s World Pees ♥ 1 ### Peerfect.
Apr 18 19:02:14 4m 27s Brush it Up! ♥ 1 Creative take on the theme! I agree with @ghost-in-the-toast, I really like how you included the different perspectives.
Apr 18 19:12:43 10m 29s Life of a Floof ♥ 1 The ending text was quite beautiful, and I really like the setting sun effect. Good job on this!
Apr 18 19:25:25 12m 42s Possum Blitz ♥ 0 I like the simplicity, it works well! My only wish is that the difficulty would increase faster.
Apr 18 19:34:52 9m 27s Cherish the Light ♥ 1 The level design and mechanics complement each other really well! It felt satisfying to navigate the world, until I got to the tree that you had to shoot through the small gap, I couldn't bear to continue after dying there a few times 😅 that being said, overall it was very enjoyable! Congrats on a great compo game!
Apr 18 19:45:08 10m 16s Inevitoffice ♥ 1 The graphics are very nice, but the tight camera and high sensitivity made it easy to get lost for me. Based on your comments it seems like the sensitivity was not meant to be that high. The dialogue and general mood was charming! Great job!
Apr 18 19:53:59 8m 51s Door Man ♥ 1 Wow, everything in this game fits together so well! The graphics are cute and charming, the movements and sounds are juicy, and the controls are responsive. I like everything except for the fact that it I wish it was just a bit longer! The length is understandable though, given how polished the rest is. Congrats on a very good compo entry! One of my favs this LD!
Apr 18 20:17:13 23m 14s The Final Word: A Microsoft Word Platform Game ♥ 1 I really like this! Clippy following your exact movements made the platforming much more interesting imo. If the controls were just a bit tighter I think this experience could be something very enjoyable, I felt like the character was a bit too slippery sometimes.
Apr 18 20:27:17 10m 04s Only You Can Try In Vain To Prevent Forest Fires On An Active Volcano ♥ 1 Very impressive entry! The premise and title are hilarious, and the gameplay is fresh and creative, even the graphics stand out as especially good. And it's a compo entry! Definitely one of my favorites this LD. Great job, be proud!
Apr 18 20:39:41 12m 24s BLACK HOLE DEMISE ♥ 1 Cool mechanic, and you've used it together with the level design to create something neat! The jump where you had to swing the block to jump up to the last checkpoint was really cool, but I think tighter controls would take it to the next level. Good job!
