Apr 16 00:13:00 WHEN NANA SAYS IT'S TIME FOR SCHOOL ♥ 4 A really neat game, well executed with lots of good little story bits throughout. It fits well with the theme, scrambling to come up with any excuse to delay having to go to school.
Apr 16 00:27:35 14m 35s Chromosphere ♥ 2 Fits the theme extremely well, turns "the inevitable" into not pressing the button to keep playing, whether out of choice or getting distracted. Not particularly fun, but it forces introspection while playing, putting you in the shoes of an AI who is now questioning if they should simply just stop keeping the solar system alive.
Apr 16 00:36:44 9m 09s Fresh From The Oven ♥ 0 One of the hands landed on the grandma and she was pinned in place, pretty scary. Simple, short, and sweet as pie.
Apr 16 00:40:51 4m 07s Tree Protector ♥ 1 As a powerless little squirrel it is a comfort to see a man get stuck on a stump and to know that you can save your acorns, your tree, and your livelihood for a few more sweet moments of life.
Apr 17 23:32:26 46h 51m Cardboard People on Fire ♥ 1 Great atmosphere. The music was great and the cardboard people were delightful to look at. I wish there was more of a game component like a counter or something for how many you've saved or how many have ascended to heaven (rocket ship style). Loved it though
Apr 17 23:39:38 7m 12s Hold it! ♥ 0 Simple and fun, what a compo game should be, great pew pew sound when clicking. Made it to 36 seconds and had fun getting there over multiple attempts. It's satisfying to get a good streak going, but I feel it can be a bit punishing when you do the burst and destroy your safe spot, especially if you weren't expecting it.
Apr 17 23:47:48 8m 10s One inevitable thing ♥ 2 Good art, good tune, I feel like the difficulty should scale faster maybe? Even with the cat weighing it down it still went down slowly enough to counteract it by clicking.
Apr 18 04:37:12 4h 49m Borrowed Time ♥ 0 Spot on with the theme. Poor guy will just always die of something. I think he has insomnia lol. Loved the graphics.
Apr 18 06:21:48 1h 44m Live Long And Prosper ♥ 1 Cute game, silly and light hearted, works well with the theme and has fun variance between attempts.
Apr 19 02:22:48 20h 01m Color Cage ♥ 1 Very neat, simple and effective, it can feel a little frustrating getting through the holes, but you get used to that. Works well with the theme and has good vibes
Apr 19 02:29:23 6m 35s Stupidly Inevitable ♥ 0 Cool idea, it feels a bit off that as a defender you're so vulnerable, maybe even more than the guy you're defending. It's a bit buggy as well but nothing a simple restart can't fix :)
Apr 19 03:10:38 41m 15s Evacuate Immediately ♥ 1 A really good take on the theme, the game feels simultaneously chill and tense, and it's fun to manage your energy and time efficiently. I feel like if you were more in control of when/how you received crystals that the game would be even more engaging and add another layer of skill. Overall great though!
Apr 19 03:16:14 5m 36s 155 Hitmen ♥ 1 Surprisingly difficult, has some fun emergent mechanics like taking bullets for the VIP and body-blocking the melee hitmen. I accidentally shot the VIP an embarrassing number of times
Apr 19 03:23:12 6m 58s CRAB IS INEVITABLE! ♥ 1 I really like the visual representation of where you're moving to, either with mouse or arrows, it's an elegant way to restrict the move speed but still allow mouse control. Fun to play, difficult, and replayable with all the different upgrades.
Apr 19 03:27:28 4m 16s Lava Tactics ♥ 1 Cool and unique, I got 363 turns in by creating a pillar of dirt 40 high, then all that was left to do was wait around and shoot at the lava with my trusty handgun.
Apr 20 17:54:13 38h 26m I have to defend my town but they only gave me an arrow ♥ 1 Neat game! Having to go retrieve the arrow forces you to keep moving and prevents you from just puppy guarding a fuse. You also have to consider what angle you're going to shoot at to make getting your arrow back not a waste of precious time. If an enemy lights a fuse it just leaves, so you have to consider if it's even worth it to shoot the enemy or to shoot something else and just put the fuse out. Tricky and fun. Goes well with the theme and has good style :)
Apr 20 18:11:45 17m 32s Inferno Fox ♥ 0 The link to play on gamejolt.net didn't work for me, but downloading the game worked just fine. At the start you could jump two platforms at a time which was satisfying because it was a bit risky to predict where the second one offscreen would be, but after using a jetpack your jump is just barely short of being able to go two platforms higher, and you fall right through the second one (as mentioned by @suchista and @autogibbon). It's so tantalizingly close. I also paused the game for a minute or two and the music cycled, when I unpaused the game was mostly frozen and all I could do was point the fox left or right.
Apr 20 18:19:30 7m 45s Penguin Panic ♥ 0 Cute and well made! Though I feel like it might actually be impossible. I tried a couple times and never lost by losing all my health, so I tried again not even bothering to dodge and hitting every bullet possible, even killing all the other penguins as soon as they land I didn't die by losing health and only got about halfway through before the iceberg was too low.
Apr 20 22:13:41 3h 54m Inevitable Garden Infestation ♥ 1 Pretty fun, though maybe a bit easy. You if you chase the rabbits toward each other while punching you can spend your time efficiently and last for a very long time between them actually getting one of your veggies. You can also punch them once to move them toward a solid object and they will get stuck on it, presumably since they're trying to go inside it. bunnyi9esgame.jpg
