| Apr 7 11:58:17 | The Last Savior | ♥ 2 | This was fun, I managed to make it pass the "save kingdom" and reach the survive phase. The sudden increase in enemies was quite terrifying lol, it was hard to survive that. I like how each enemy is weak to one of the 3 attacks, it added a reaction mechanic to the gameplay XD I think the pacing is a little slow though, and without a checkpoint after the first phase, it's a bit frustrating if I wish to attempt it again from the start. The cutscene and the loading screen do look sick tho π | |
| Apr 10 21:56:54 | 81h 58m | HungryBot | ♥ 1 | I collected 10 code fragments but not sure what the password is to decode the message. It was a little confusing on what to do at first but I got it down anyways. The controls feel pretty good and the visuals look nice too. I really wish to know how to get the password though π |
| Apr 10 22:17:08 | 20m 14s | Fading Fate | ♥ 1 | I really like how the color palette swaps, the overall visual is great, but I have no idea what's happening XD. The game seems to run itself just fine, and it seems like I can "do a category" with each of the buttons? (not sure which is related to the buildings) I read the description about the buildings but I don't understand the impact of my choices, so I have been clicking buttons randomly π Really good job on the effort though, the world looks alive and the color is very appealing |
| Apr 10 22:46:13 | 29m 05s | Planet Saver | ♥ 1 | earthSaver highscore.png Somehow I can spam E and it sometimes animation cancels and I'm able to get this score XD Cool earth-chan character too |
| Apr 10 23:01:09 | 14m 56s | Terrasite | ♥ 4 | Oh wow everything feels so polished, and I only notice the radar in late game, but it sure is helpful to provide that info. The amount of aliens feels intimidating and they destroy my build platforms quite effectively lol, but I still get the terrasite title XD The visuals are very impressive too, and the sound effects accompany the gameplay very nicely |
| Apr 10 23:23:20 | 22m 11s | Farewell | ♥ 1 | Oh wow the graphics really sold me on this, I really enjoy the atmosphere. It has an interesting setting and exploring the town feels fun too. It's a little difficult to complete the game as I'm not sure where to go after getting all the friends or if I only have to survive till 6am. I also lose almost as soon as I get the last character because it's hard to dodge mom π I also enjoy the little story told through the dialogues, like everyone said, it's cozy XD |
| Apr 10 23:37:47 | 14m 27s | Future me problem | ♥ 1 | It's pretty fun and quite hilarious, it feels like tetris but trash-themed XD I'm guessing the layout is set for mobile? If that's the case it's an interesting decision because I don't see much mobile attempts on a game jam, great job overall. |
| Apr 11 00:02:19 | 24m 32s | Fountain of youth | ♥ 1 | I am glad that this game isn't punishing, and I can continue my progress bit by bit on every new life. The message is also very nice where the ending achieved is a matter of group effort. I like the dungeon layout and the platform mechanics, as well as the jump nerf as you get older. I think the tiles for the background walls could be better, because at first they look like solid walls. Overall this is a neat entry π |
| Apr 11 00:15:01 | 12m 42s | Workplace Accidents | ♥ 2 | This is a hilarious take, watching the workers die by mere opening the refrigerator π The play area is really huge though, but I'm glad there's an arrow to help. The controls on the ghost is really smooth and feels nice to move around. I wonder why some workers have red/blue around their eyes? |
| Apr 11 00:34:03 | 19m 02s | The Longest Commute | ♥ 3 | The art direction is quite special, and it can be funny how ridiculous the road pattern soon gets. Spent some time figuring out what are the controls though, I was going to think the car runs on its own π Interesting take on the theme and it is quite impressive for a game jam. |
| Apr 11 00:54:13 | 20m 10s | The Runs | ♥ 2 | Love the easter eggs and inappropriate stuff on the blackboards. The humor is amazing and I really like the pop up texts like "oof" when you bump into someone or the comments when you pick up an item. The gameplay is a bit tedious because it feels slow to regain the momentum and it is so easy to bump into stuff. Nonetheless, I appreciate the small touches like someone burying their head in poop next to the toilet. |
| Apr 11 08:47:02 | 7h 52m | The Adventures of: πΊπππππ π±ππ | ♥ 1 | I really like how the palette changes when the character recharges, and the recharge mechanic smoothly blends with the game. The double jump also makes it less punishing and makes the game more enjoyable. Although the music is generated, it fits the game quite well. Nice job π |
| Apr 11 13:02:45 | 4h 15m | Banana-Man-Joe Sr. | ♥ 2 | Wasn't sure what to do at first, but then I realize the controls are pretty smooth :D Checked up on Banana Man Joe Jr and wow the voice acting is amazing! Each conversation ended with a blast of hype music and random banana enemies start to appear and it was all too funny. A bit confused when the wave ends even though I haven't shot every enemy, but I'm too excited to hear the next dialogue than to bother about the game system π |
| Apr 11 13:23:39 | 20m 54s | DIZT | ♥ 1 | I appreciate the aesthetic choices here but I would prefer to have it more "readable". The mood is amazing, when I enter the game I can already tell I'm in a zombie situation (didn't notice the description at first). The cooldown on the weapons are kinda long though, plus the shots don't travel far enough, making it very difficult to play. I wish to try out the vehicles but I'm unable to survive through the earlier phase. Overall I think it is a pretty good entry, great job on the effort! π |
| Apr 11 13:58:59 | 35m 20s | The Last Days of RIPLEY 9000 | ♥ 2 | Wow the visuals are off the charts! The world looks beautiful and I'm impressed with all the 3D models used. The bot moves a bit slow and the game can use some balancing but overall great job on the polishing. Love the transitions too. π |
| Apr 11 14:24:21 | 25m 22s | 22h38 | ♥ 2 | Best entry I've tried so far, absolutely enjoyed this masterpiece, especially when this is made within a small time frame. I really enjoy solving the small puzzles and am impressed by the amount of quest lines. |
| Apr 11 23:50:54 | 9h 26m | Please Don't Date Me | ♥ 1 | Really like the art style here, everything has small details and the color works really well. It's an interesting take to play against the main protagonist, and I like the occasional 4th wall breaks too. No idea how many times I've replayed this just to see which option affects which ending π |
| Apr 12 03:13:16 | 3h 22m | Ghost Chase! | ♥ 0 | Cool concept I find the mechanic of stunning ghosts very effective. The time pickups are hardly noticeable though, and there isn't much to do other than keep running to survive. The furniture placements helps to keep it interesting, I would say this is a pretty neat entry, good job! π |
| Apr 12 03:26:14 | 12m 58s | Mutating Escapist | ♥ 0 | I too am getting some Will You Snail? vibes, the level design looks pretty good aesthetically, and the idea for random mutation is interesting. The controls feel a bit clunky however, and the other mutations doesn't seem as useful as double jump. Dash should be helpful if it's easier to control. The voice lines are very cool and I appreciate the button to unlock everything so people can try things out π |
| Apr 12 03:38:58 | 12m 44s | Encroaching Void | ♥ 1 | Cool concept, the shaders you made is impressive. I had fun chaining a series of bless attacks on a group of enemies XD Screenshot 2022-04-11 203553.png |
| Apr 13 01:55:57 | 22h 16m | Malpractice | ♥ 2 | This game is fun and interesting, I really like how you got so many different things to happen from the environment. The setting with the loan shark stuff is pretty unusual too, and the characters looking like Lego people gave me a good laugh. My only issue will be the responsiveness of my clicks, is the game constantly switching between scenes when I rotate the view? Other than that this game is well thought out, the variety of minigames is amazing. π |
| Apr 13 02:16:46 | 20m 49s | Aster Defense | ♥ 4 | Nice game, I like how each ring orbits in the other direction π Like how the other comments mentioned, it needs a difficulty increase otherwise the inevitable is not coming XD Love the artwork, it is very detailed, the sound effects are satisfying too, great job! |
| Apr 13 16:19:52 | 14h 03m | Bitboy | ♥ 1 | Truly amazed with the amount of content, the game surprised me with more a few times when I thought it's over. I like your animated splash screen at the beginning too, it's very cool. The little details like tilting the characters during their dialogues makes the game extra polished too! π |
| Apr 14 00:51:34 | 8h 31m | Decisive Battle | ♥ 1 | Cool combat mechanics, reminds me of the mario & luigi games (the rpg series). I found out the strategy of just spamming attack is a lot easier to beat the game. π Nonetheless, I appreciate the added layer of depth with "perfect" timed actions. I wonder if there is a different ending for a pacifist run though? Tried doing it but the dodge frames are kinda tight and there isn't enough indication for me to anticipate the dodge direction. Still, it is a very different experience among most games, love the atmosphere and animations too. Thanks for playing our game on stream earlier too! π |
| Apr 15 10:54:22 | 34h 02m | Oh No My Trophy | ♥ 1 | Haha this is a cute game, I really like the sound of them going pop. I was stunned on the instruction page for a while, I like that you used equations to explain the interactions, but perhaps not everything should be done with equations π I kind of hope the sprayed traps could stay in the game longer or be allowed to draw longer trails, but I enjoyed playing this anyways, it was fun, satisfying, and challenging π Pretty good job especially for a compo! |
| Apr 15 11:06:32 | 12m 10s | Delay Inevitable Death | ♥ 1 | Oh nice an infinite runner, it fits the theme well, but you seemed to have opted out of that rating π€ The different perspective is definitely interesting as you can see death catching up, and we are not looking at the player character's back for once π I too find the colliders a bit too punishing, and perhaps not spawning boulders until the game start (or something similar) might be a good idea, since if I don't time it well, I will run into a boulder as soon as the game starts But anyways, congratulations on your first game jam, I enjoyed the music too :D |
| Apr 15 11:31:34 | 25m 02s | CigBan | ♥ 2 | Yes son is finally winning, age 80+ with good health π I wonder if there is a different ending, cause I shot every birthday cake by instinct π love the candles spell "LD" for the 50y/o cake, cool easter egg. It was too repetitive and time-consuming for me to play another run without shooting any cakes though, but I gotta say this game is very unique and a lot of the interactions are smooth and satisfying. |
