| Apr 5 07:34:35 | Wicked flame! | ♥ 3 | Fun game which fits the theme perfectly! Also really nice visuals. I like how new mechanics are introduced. It might just be a me issue but I'm the explorer kind of person so when oil patches were introduced I went to the paths that openened first which lead me to out of bounds I think? Maybe something which blocks the player but still lets fire propagate would be good here. wicked_flame_1.png After dying on this screen the fuse didn't light up anymore. Replayed it up to this point and couldn't replicate it though. wicked_flame_2.png I really liked playing it. Also great soundtrack. Keep it up! | |
| Apr 5 08:29:10 | 54m 35s | QUADRATORUM | ♥ 1 | Nice game. I like the visuals and the music. But I have to agree with other comments about enemies spawning to close to the player. Other than that good game. Keep it up! |
| Apr 5 09:19:56 | 50m 46s | Bloodlust | ♥ 1 | Good game! The graphics are really nice and the soundtrack fits the "sneaking around at night" theme. The combat could be improved a little bit. Maybe being able to attack while moving would make the combat smoother. Also noticed some graphic glitches close to the map boundaries: blood_lust_graphic_glitches.png But still a nice game. Keep it up! |
| Apr 5 10:00:23 | 40m 27s | Choboro | ♥ 2 | Awesome game. Looks almost too polished for a jam entry π. Keep it up! |
| Apr 5 11:24:02 | 1h 23m | Future me problem | ♥ 1 | Great game! It matches the theme perfectly. |
| Apr 5 11:43:51 | 19m 49s | Virus Bash | ♥ 1 | Nice Game. I like the upgrade system. The only thing I'm missing is a soundtrack in the background. Other than that it's pretty good. Keep it up! virus_bash.png |
| Apr 5 12:07:38 | 23m 47s | Nightwaker | ♥ 4 | The great visuals and soundtrack emphasize the gloomy mood. Also I like the idea of having to type to solve things. Good Game! |
| Apr 5 12:32:22 | 24m 44s | Zombie, M.D. | ♥ 2 | Cool art. I like the game idea but the camera movment feels a little bit too heavy. I think the game might feel better with the camera being zoomed out. I also have to agree with bottled-up-dark-peace. Making potions accessible from the top of the desk would make it easier and also prevents being bullied by zombies at both entrances π Anyway still nice game! zombie_md.ong.PNG |
| Apr 5 12:38:21 | 5m 59s | WE ARE DOOMED | ♥ 1 | Nice and innovative entry. I like it! |
| Apr 5 13:22:28 | 44m 07s | Giraffe o'Clock | ♥ 1 | Cute art style and great music and soundeffects. At first I thought it's a little bit too much text but it was funny enough for me to still enjoy it. The mini game was unexpected. I'm really bad at rhythm games π Also got stuck once while dashing: giraffeoclock.png Nice game. Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 6 06:43:41 | 17h 21m | Dont Sleep | ♥ 1 | Funny game. I like the art a lot. This came up the moment I had the same thought: dont_sleep.png A chill soundtrack would have made it perfect. I still like it. Especially the art. Keep it up! |
| Apr 6 07:07:41 | 24m 00s | Mightiest Minion | ♥ 0 | Great music and really nice visual effects. Interesting game idea but I ran into the same problems as others mentioned above. Camera moving and lags on reset. The jump animation looks really funny. I wish the jump had more use. Anyway well done and keep it up! |
| Apr 6 07:21:10 | 13m 29s | Chess? | ♥ 2 | Interesting mechanics. Models look really nice as well. Keep it up! |
| Apr 6 07:40:00 | 18m 50s | Live, Flame, Live! | ♥ 4 | me: "I shouldn't walk too far away from the camp fire or I might get lost" also me after collecting lots of wood: "where am I?" Nice and atmospheric game. I like the visuals and the lighting effects. Especially the wolves with the glowing eyes. Keep it up! |
| Apr 6 07:59:47 | 19m 47s | Infested hole | ♥ 0 | Nice game with good art and a fitting soundtrack. Not a fan of pressing S to jump though. Also when dying it would be nice to see how far you got before sending the player back to the title screen. Maybe even save the score to a file. Other than that it's a fun game which fits the theme. Keep it up! |
| Apr 6 08:30:03 | 30m 16s | 25 Vikings | ♥ 1 | Very nice graphics. Soundtrack and sound effects are good as well. Gameplay itself is hard but that's fine. I noticed some things which could improve the gameplay experience: - Upgrading single troops by clicking them first takes too much time. Maybe upgrade the whole selection?! Not sure - Micro managing different units to open/collect/fight things is also hard. Maybe make selections assignable to slots. For example: "select units, CTRL+1 saves them to the first slot, SHIFT+1 to select units in slot 1. let units in slot 1 open cages, select slot 2 and let them fight some giants" Anyway for a jam game it is really polished. Keep it up! Also here is my record. Didn't get very far though. vikings.png |
| Apr 6 08:53:53 | 23m 50s | Civil Servant | ♥ 3 | Nice game. I wish my choices would have more impact though. But still a great entry! ~~I approve~~ civilservant.png |
| Apr 6 09:00:13 | 6m 20s | TO THE DEATH (Definitely not a psyche experiment) | ♥ 1 | That ending was really good. Probably not many have seen it right? Nice idea! |
| Apr 7 06:01:33 | 21h 01m | M.A.D - Maintain A Dictatorship | ♥ 3 | Nice interpretation of the theme. Great entry! |
| Apr 7 06:23:34 | 22m 01s | Mars-O-Tage | ♥ 2 | Fun gameplay. I like the idea a lot! score.png |
| Apr 7 06:35:57 | 12m 23s | Pickle-Pocalypse | ♥ 0 | Fun little game. I like the voice acting. It felt like I got overwhelmed by zombies really fast. Maybe it would be nice if the player would get some kind of power ups to at least have the feeling of having a chance at "winning" π So make the player progress in any way as well but still balanced enough that it stays true to the theme. Anyway cool idea. Keep it up! |
| Apr 7 06:57:53 | 21m 56s | Hearts Ablaze | ♥ 0 | Awesome entry. Reminded me a lot of Nuclear Throne. Great art, soundtrack and utilization of the theme. Keep it up! |
| Apr 7 07:09:43 | 11m 50s | Demon Sigil | ♥ 2 | Nice fun game. Finally an entry where it seems like "getting overwhelmed" again but you can actually win. Shooting up- and downwards felt a little bit awkward because the source of fire wasn't centered. But other than that great game. I like the art style and animations. Keep it up! |
| Apr 7 07:20:56 | 11m 13s | Pompeii Ludum Dare 50 | ♥ 3 | Great art and animations. But it feels a little bit too hard or even unfair when a meteor hits you midair. Still cool entry! |
| Apr 7 07:41:45 | 20m 49s | Bee Rescue | ♥ 1 | Cute game. I really like the idea. Took me a while to understand what is going on but got the hang of it after playing it a few times. Maybe a tutorial would be nice. Also a soundtrack would be great. Art and sound effects are very nice though. Good work keep it up! |
| Apr 7 07:46:58 | 5m 13s | Glide'r Die | ♥ 1 | Those soundeffects are hilarious. Simple idea but very fitting for the theme. Soundtrack would be nice though. Anyway great entry! Keep it up! |
| Apr 7 08:04:49 | 17m 51s | Untitled Shooty Game | ♥ 1 | Nice game! But the movement is a little bit too slow. So maybe faster base movement. But you mentioned upgrades. I think it would be fine with them. Still solid entry. I like it. Keep it up! Also here is my score: untitled_shooty_game.png |
| Apr 7 08:24:55 | 20m 06s | Trolley's Delayma | ♥ 1 | Great puzzle game. Very enjoyable. I love the art style and the sound effects. A small soundtrack would have made it perfect! Keep it up and thanks for creating this game! |
| Apr 7 08:55:06 | 30m 11s | Battery Low | ♥ 5 | Great entry. I love the art style and soundtrack! |
| Apr 8 07:32:23 | 22h 37m | BOULDER | ♥ 1 | Nice idea. Simple gameplay but still enjoyable. As others mentioned already the dash felt a little bit off. Maybe binding it to a different button without the double tap would make it feel better. Anyway still a nice entry. I liked the artstyle. Keep it up! |
| Apr 8 07:43:01 | 10m 38s | Lumi and the Cloud Shepherd | ♥ 1 | Great idea. I like the art style. A nice soundtrack would be great. But still a very nice entry. Keep it up! |
| Apr 8 07:51:43 | 8m 42s | We Need To Talk | ♥ 2 | This is a great game. Probably the best I played this jam. Thanks for creating it. Keep it up! |
| Apr 8 08:06:42 | 14m 59s | Oh No My Trophy | ♥ 1 | Very nice entry! The tutorial chart was a little bit overwhelming at first. It makes more sense after playing the game. Maybe an interactive tutorial or showing a popup like "X is effective against Y" when a new enemy type appears could be good. But it's still fine as it is. Especially for a compo game. Keep it up! Also here is my score: oh_no_my_trophy.png |
| Apr 9 06:03:26 | 21h 56m | RogueTime | ♥ 1 | Decent game. Even got myself a place on the leaderboard! Things I noticed while playing: - missing soundtrack. In my opinion soundtracks are really important and can make a game a lot better. - the sound effect which plays on kill is a little bit too "noisy" - arrows sometimes ricocheted after killing enemies. I don't know if its intended. Maybe something to look into. - you can hit enemies from the screen next to them. If they are already loaded maybe don't update damage. - pausing would be nice Other than that the platforming and collision felt really solid. I also like how you can buy upgrades with time. Great idea and nice take on the theme. Keep it up! |
| Apr 9 06:20:09 | 16m 43s | I have no nose, and I must smell | ♥ 2 | I'm not sure what I was supposed to do but I just explored some planets while listening to the masterpiece of a soundtrack. Nice and relaxing experience |
| Apr 9 09:35:13 | 3h 15m | 1 Man 6 Bullets | ♥ 3 | Great game and take on the theme. I really enjoyed playing it. Looks really polished. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 07:07:40 | 21h 32m | Door Man | ♥ 1 | Nice puzzle game. I liked it a lot. Would have loved to play more levels. Good job and keep it up! |
| Apr 10 07:22:22 | 14m 42s | Attack of the Yellow Things | ♥ 2 | I like the idea. It has potential but needs more work in its current state. It was very confusing in the beginning. Also as mentioned already it can take quite some time until the enemy turn is finished. I didn't even know why I couldn't control my units until I discovered the zoom and saw the other enemies moving π As for turn based strategy I really like to have all the information I can get. Which enemy moves next (attack order), what is its attack range, what does it attack with, actual damage and hp values. Same for the units the player is controlling. Still an interesting concept. But maybe too big of a scope for a game jam. Anyway good job and keep it up! |
| Apr 10 07:35:17 | 12m 55s | RIITA | ♥ 7 | Great game! I wish I would be good at rhythm games. Also I didn't quite like the keybindings. I don't know how to place my hand on 1-5. I used 1-4 with my left hand and 5 with my right hand but that confused me a lot π Anyway amazing entry with great art, music and an excellent idea for the theme! Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 10 08:04:02 | 28m 45s | Baking Simulator 2022 | ♥ 1 | Nice and cute game. I wish there would be a button to clean kitchen utensils in real life π I was able to get more batter out of the visually empty mixer bowl while baking the chocolate cake after baking cupcakes. Maybe a small bug? But nothing game breaking. Can't overfill the pans anyway. Also noticed the 1/3 missing on the unit list: baking_simulator_unit_list.png But those are just minor things I noticed. All in all great entry. Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 10 08:15:57 | 11m 55s | Delay the CATastrophe | ♥ 1 | Cute game. I like the art style. Grabbing cats felt hard sometimes though. Maybe an increased hitbox would make it easier. Anway still great. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 08:33:20 | 17m 23s | Out Of Gas! | ♥ 3 | Nice game. I like it! Driving in the center with the motorcycle felt a little bit overpowered until I crashed into a car π outofgas.png Good work. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 08:42:38 | 9m 18s | Turbo Toilet Tomfoolery! | ♥ 1 | Great idea. Even though you are saying the controls are like this on purpose it's still infuriating getting through doors π Still made me laugh. Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 10 09:31:14 | 48m 36s | Death Will Find A Way | ♥ 1 | Nice take on the theme. The soundtrack fits perfectly. Sound effects are a little bit loud. Controls feel floaty but I got used to it after dying a few times. Might feel better after some tuning though. All in all a nice entry for a jam. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 09:52:35 | 21m 21s | Healer's Handbook | ♥ 3 | What a great game. First of all I really _lΓΆve_ to see something else than an engine being used to make the game! The pixel art is incredible and the soundtrack is very fitting. Soundeffects are also very nice. The gameplay itself is very innovative and fun. Took me a while to figure out what I was supposed to do, but once I got the hang of it, I enjoyed it a lot. Also I don't know if it was intended but the console window was still there. If it wasn't intentional then you can remove it for release build in the `conf.lua`: ```lua function love.conf(t) t.console = false end ``` I hope this game idea will be continued. I like the rune drawing to cast spells. Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 10 10:22:28 | 29m 53s | Hairless Soon | ♥ 1 | Great idea! Graphics and audio are extremely good. Interesting take on the theme. As already mentioned by others, gameplay became a little bit repetitive after a few days. All in all it is still a really nice jam entry. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 10:36:19 | 13m 51s | Island's End | ♥ 0 | Nice take on the theme. I would have liked a mini map to see where the next wave spawns. Also sadly no audio. The animations and graphics were nice though! Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 10:48:26 | 12m 07s | The Apocawiz | ♥ 1 | Great game. I'm a huge fan of ALTTP so this made me a little bit nostalgic almost. I played with my gamepad and I would not say that holding down firing would be better. I really like the button mashing part. But I can see how it's different with a keyboard. Pressing space bar all the time is hard. Maybe a different button like `J` would have made it easier for keyboard users. But anyway, really polished game. Great graphics and soundtrack. Also the sound effects are nice. The mage boss is really well designed. I like how the flames spawn continiously in a circle. Thanks for creating this game and keep up the good work! |
| Apr 10 10:57:56 | 9m 30s | Coolant! | ♥ 0 | Hard game, charming graphics and hilarious sound effects. Instant death is a little bit too harsh I think. Other than that great entry. Keep it up! |
| Apr 10 11:04:43 | 6m 47s | Torture and Ascension | ♥ 0 | Nice entry. A nice soundtrack in the background would have made it even better. Other than that solid game for 10 hours. Keep it up! |
| Apr 11 05:07:20 | 18h 02m | Bropocalypse | ♥ 1 | Funny story. The curve on how fast Zombros spawn seems a little bit sudden. At first it was manageable but then they just flooded the gym. As mentioned by someone else some kind of effect when shooting would be really cool. The topdown view reminded me a little bit of Hotline Miami ~~so naturally I tried to grab a dumbbell as a weapon~~. There are probably lots of things that could be used as a weapon in a gym. But all in all still a nice take on the theme. Keep it up! zombros.png |
| Apr 11 05:26:54 | 19m 34s | Leaf the Ghost behind | ♥ 3 | Nice art style, fitting soundtrack and I like the sound effects. Some jumps are kind of hard so I definitely agree on the coyote time. Good entry. Keep it up! |
| Apr 11 06:05:13 | 38m 19s | Night Castle Battle | ♥ 1 | I have difficulty to rate this game to be honest. To add to the already mentioned used asset packs, the audio also seems to be taken from somewhere else: [here][1] Gameplay-wise there is an attack animation which is very delayed. You can move and enemies move towards the center. They die when they touch the player and the player doesn't receive any damage. Also not quite a "platformer" yet in the current state. Even though some artists don't require you to credit their work I still suggest doing it because it looks beautiful. Nice idea but still needs a lot of work.

| Apr 11 06:34:00 | 28m 47s | Lumberjack | ♥ 0 | Interesting game. Huge fan of parallax effect. I also like the fact that you used Rust and OpenGL. Soundtrack is very fitting. Gameplay became a little bit repetitive after a while. I noticed lots of single textures while going through the game data. Switching textures in OpenGL can be quite expensive. That's why people usually pack all of their sprites in one huge texture and select subtextures from them. Probably doesn't matter for this case but maybe something to consider for future projects π Anyway still a good entry with a nice idea. Keep it up! |
| Apr 11 07:04:17 | 30m 17s | Predestination | ♥ 1 | Game reminded me of super meat boy. Platformers like this require good controls over anything. It's very hard to get it right but you did a great job and got very close. Midair control and double jump felt a little bit off. The respawn time was too long for this kind of game. Usually you die a lot and want to be back into action asap ~~instead of having time to contemplate your life choices~~. But other than that pretty good job. Graphics and Audio are really nice as well. The bullet hell part was unexpected but cool. I died after a few waves. Is this endless or does it have an end? I felt like the movement was a little bit slow to react to all the bullets. Also maybe making the player/bullet hitbox smaller would probably make it feel slightly better when navigating through lots of bullets. Really liked the soundtrack in this part. All in all great entry. Keep up the good work! |
| Apr 11 11:32:25 | 4h 28m | Ride the Sauze | ♥ 1 | Great idea for the theme. I really like the visual style. The collision seemed a little bit off sometimes but maybe I'm just bad at the game π All in all pretty good for a compo entry. Keep it up! |
