| Apr 9 11:56:34 | LakseCounter 3000 | ♥ 1 | You're looking at the new "+1000 Food" champ here. 🏆 The login/high score feature is above and beyond for a compo jam, I just want to say I'm majorly impressed with that. It could have the same sort of viral appeal as games like Wordle if it had a little more polish. Some simple CSS styling would go a long way. But there are some simple things like the timer bar and rising musical tones that create a sense of intensity and fun. Great game! | |
| Apr 9 12:00:33 | 3m 59s | Bomb-boozled | ♥ 0 | I got the same error. macOS / Word 16.59 Screen Shot 2022-04-09 at 7.59.44 AM.png |
| Apr 9 12:41:11 | 40m 38s | Loyal Prisoner | ♥ 1 | I stayed in prison for 62 days. I wonder what other people's scores were? I'm definitely a fan of this sort of time management/simulation game. Because the fight has a little bit of RNG thrown in, there's a balance between strategy and randomness that gives it some nice variation. I laughed when the other commenter mentioned that the music was too cheery, they're definitely right 😆 but the music was cute and good. Nice job |
| Apr 9 12:48:26 | 7m 15s | Roadside Dinosaur Demolition | ♥ 1 | ME ❤️ DESTROY An alternative to the Jenga-esque gameplay you're suggesting is to try and knock the dinosaurs' legs out as fast as possible and watch them topple over. Repeat ad infinitum. I'm sure this is how the dinosaurs went extinct. |
| Apr 9 13:01:46 | 13m 20s | Life's the Wurst | ♥ 1 | The title alone is 10/10 GOTY. I adore the model of the hungry overlord with the fork and knife and the wriggling hot dog physics were totally cracking me up. I did find some spots I could camp out in and avoid the enemies pretty easily but for me it's all the little details, like the hot dog's spinning propeller hat, that make this game hilariously fun. |
| Apr 9 13:09:24 | 7m 38s | MacBooler | ♥ 1 | The voice acting cracked me up. A video tutorial would definitely be useful, not only to teach people boolean addition, but to explain the interface a little better. I found myself wishing there was an untimed practice mode too. Nice graphics and the sense of urgency you get from the voice acting / flickering lights is nice. Interesting game! |
| Apr 9 13:14:00 | 4m 36s | Over the Rainbow Bridge | ♥ 1 | Omg, you're going to make me cry. 😢 I love how the story is told from the dog's perspective. The color palette, the dithered gradients, and the somber music all contribute to a great sense of mood. I only wished it was longer, or that the gameplay had more impact on the narrative / gave you different endings. Nice game |
| Apr 9 13:19:50 | 5m 50s | You are Quitting | ♥ 1 | Give me back my fun box!! Okay, I have to say, this is the funniest LD game I've played so far. I think you really nailed the theme. The graphics are clean and sort of unnervingly friendly-looking. Oh and PARTICLES! |
| Apr 9 13:26:17 | 6m 27s | A duck on ice | ♥ 1 | Really cool concept. I like how the narration is affected by what's happening in the game -- I exploded the duck on purpose so I could hear how that narration was interjected into the story. I also adore the animation of the duck's feet rotating around the wheels. |
| Apr 9 13:32:36 | 6m 19s | Venting Machine | ♥ 1 | 591m! :) I definitely didn't understand what I was doing the first time but once I figured out it was a launcher style game I got super excited. The concept, taking your frustrations out on a faulty vending machine, is really clever. I love the very 80s/early computer color palette too. Overall stylish and fun, great job! |
| Apr 9 13:57:05 | 24m 29s | A Last Stand | ♥ 1 | Fun game with a lot of polish. I love the combination of action + tower defense. The music and graphics are also themed really well. I guess my only complaint is that once you get to wave 9 or so, it becomes almost impossible to lose, unless you get hit by one of your own arrows. The decision to allow friendly fire (dying by your own traps) is an interesting one. I thought the difficulty ramped up at a nice pace too. Overall this is a great game! 2022-04-09 09_53_41-A Last Stand by RustyMonky — Mozilla Firefox.png |
| Apr 9 14:08:35 | 11m 30s | Wait For It ! | ♥ 1 | Superb game! There's so much replayability which you don't normally find in jam games. Even though the gameplay is very similar to WarioWare there's a lot of uniqueness in the graphics style, the story, and the music. I thought the difficulty ramped up at a nice pace too. |
| Apr 17 14:38:01 | 192h 29m | SURVIVE! | ♥ 1 | I like the graphics! They're unique and the monster designs are interesting. I agree with the others though, it was hard to tell whether you were attacking or being attacked, so some feedback there would be useful. For example, if the character could swing the weapon so you could see what the hitbox would be, or if the character said "ow!" when attacked. I eventually got the spear and killed a rabbit but as the theme says, death was inevitable for me. :) |
| Apr 17 14:46:48 | 8m 47s | Breakfast Time in Dream Land | ♥ 1 | I clicked on this because it sort of reminded me of the Little Nemo comics for some reason. What a delightful little shoot-em-up! The game works really well, no bugs and the controls are smooth. I thought the difficulty ramped up at a good pace too. It did get a little easy once I figured out you could just hold shift and zig-zag up and down -- I made it to about wave 20 before I decided I'd had enough. All of the character designs and the music are really charming and fun! I was impressed with the amount of polish. Nice job on this. |
| Apr 17 15:02:28 | 15m 40s | Digital Pet | ♥ 0 | Played this for a lot longer than I thought I would. First off, I love the minimalist aesthetic. It goes to show that you can pursue an interesting style in a jam without having to do really time-consuming intricate artwork. I love the idea of a virtual pet right off the bat, and combining it with the clicker genre is like, :chef's kiss: for me. Like the others say, maybe some feedback is in order for how long it might take to get to the next stage of evolution, and obviously some sound and music would make the idle time go by a little faster, but what you've got is a really interesting and addictive game. Nice work! |
| Apr 17 15:10:26 | 7m 58s | The Last Knight | ♥ 0 | Jams are awesome for trying out new tools and techniques. I'm glad you tried out 3D because this was a fun take on this sort of tower defense / shoot em up. The fact that you encorporated a day/night cycle was really impressive. I did encounter a bug around day 4 where a healthbox got stuck and caused my character to stop moving (see pic). But overall I was really charmed by the art style and the controls worked well. Nice work! 2022-04-17 11_09_25-The Last Knight by Kid Yeti — Mozilla Firefox.png |
| Apr 17 15:20:06 | 9m 40s | I don't know how to code | ♥ 1 | You got me to click on your game just based on the title alone. :P The concept is really unique, I'm seeing it as a neat crossover between a resource management game and a card game. The audio and voiceover are obviously a highlight, and the writing is really funny too. I thought the game felt really balanced, even if I only made it to week 10. Nice job! |
| Apr 17 15:31:35 | 11m 29s | Trash Panic! | ♥ 0 | First off, the audio is AMAZING. It gets so hectic late-game and I was just laughing at the KA-DONKs and messing up a lot. So fun. I also found that clicking was easier for me than keyboard controls. The feeling of inevitability is absolutely there, so great job with the theme. I thought the physics worked really nicely too. I processed 131 pieces of trash. |
