Apr 4 02:18:43 Over the Rainbow Bridge ♥ 3 Very simple but very pretty ! Loved the art and the palette choice
Apr 4 14:12:23 11h 53m Try to Die of Old Age ♥ 1 Nice game ! Really liked the humor ^^ The player movements are a bit zippy and take some getting used to but appart from that it's pretty fun :) Good job !
Apr 4 16:47:53 2h 35m Apartheid ♥ 1 The art is just gorgeous ! The gameplay is pretty simple but it serve the story very well. I had a little display issue on my macbook. The texts were very small & hard to read & I wasn't able to click the choices. Probably a UI scaling issue since macbooks have weird resolutions. maybe try scaling your canvas with screen size ?) But it displayed & played smoothly on PC. Appart from that very nice & impressive for a compo. Great work ! :)
Apr 4 17:17:28 29m 35s Life of the Only Rational Scientist ♥ 3 Cool concept ! It fit the theme very well. The music compliment the ambiance nicely & the art work is really cool looking <3 Wish it could be a little longer. Most of the choices were pretty straight forward making the game very easy (Naked android in the street? nothing unusual here ! you may proceed ! XD) If you plan to iterate on this game, I would suggest adding an exposition level that fill up and lead to game over if you're too careless in your actions / decisions & make the choices more ambiguous (more greys, less black & white) & maybe add a third or even fourth option to every decision to make it a bit more tricky ? Appart from that, pretty solid jam game & fun to go through. Good work ! :)
Apr 4 17:43:10 25m 42s That One Time I Woke Up and Saw Vines Outside My Window ♥ 1 Nice little game. Liked your character sprite :) The growing vines makes for a very interesting threat. a bit unpredictable (in a good way) that add some tension. Some pointers: The art is a bit uneven. if you put oulines on your character there should some too on the rest of the assets so that it looks coherent. Some of the elements/ platforms kinda blended with the background making it a bit confusing on where to go/jump at first; It can be easily fixed by adding oulines on what is interractable/solid (platforms, vines, walls) and leave the background without or with thiner/lighter oulines. appart from that, It's a very nice & cute jam game. Good work :)
Apr 4 18:04:34 21m 24s If you try hard enough, you can win. ♥ 2 Very nervous, very juicy, very fun ! For a little while I actually believed I could hold them off since you loot very fast and you basically turn into a walking turret XD But I eventualy became completeley overwhelmed by the number of ennemies. Great work :)
Apr 4 18:19:31 14m 57s Anomalous ♥ 1 Really cool game ! Loved the idea of using the weapons in a different way than usual. the visual are neat, the level is big enough the difficulty is just hard enough to be challenging & not too frustrating. The only thing missing is music :) Overall, a pretty solid & fun game for 48h ! Great work :)
Apr 4 19:16:25 56m 54s Cyber Revolution 2789 ♥ 0 Cool Concept ! the visuals are very nice ! Some feedbacks: The bombs make the game very easy & spawn a lot (you can basically make the game last forever). maybe make them less current or remove tem all together. There's no scoring. That made me loose interest kinda fast since there's no challenge to reach a high score. The use of action where not clear at first. took me a while to figure out I had to click the action then the character then the action again. (that's also a lot o click for 1 action, maybe make it a drag an drop ?) Appart from that, that's a pretty cool game. With some balencing, a sound track & some twick here & there it could become very fun ;)
Apr 4 20:52:25 1h 36m Cold and Alone ♥ 4 I want more please !!!! Absolutly love the concept. It works great with the theme. There's a good level of stress & urgency to gather the necessary resources to stay alive. Each upgrade feels like life or death. The rover controls are a bit hard to get used to but overall efficient (might be more intuitive with a joystick ?) I felt like the difficulty ramp up could have been a bit faster (a bit too easy to my taste) but that more a matter of taste. It's missing some nice soundtrack to complement the game (but understandable since it's compo) I felt kinda sad when I finished all the upgrades, which is a good thing because i wanted more (seriously.. more please <3) If you decide to iterate on the game after the jam (please do) a few pointers for inspiration: -controller support -don't add a minimap (some people might complain but it's actually a good thing, it add some struggle & stress to remember/forget what is where) -more ressources that you unlock / need as you move further (exactly what you did with the crystal) -a cool soundtrack Seriously. You did an amazing work. I could see myself buying a fully developped version of that game. Cheers !
Apr 5 12:28:29 15h 36m Catch the corrupt ♥ 1 Nice game ! looks really neat. the gameplay is really simple but engaging. Found a little bug. if you spam space on a door you'll get out of synch with the floor and won't be able to gather papers anymore. Also ended up on a blank screen after teh 4th leve (not sure if it's the end game or a bug :/ ) papart from that pretty cool game. Good job :)
Apr 5 12:50:01 21m 32s Mike Quarter (The Kitchen Porter) ♥ 1 Really cool game ! Very hard but engaging ! great work :)

Apr 5 14:53:38 45m 52s Rocket Lawnchair ♥ 1 Hilarious game ! Run into a small issue : couldn't register more that 2 key press at a time (but it's an old keyboard, worked on my more recent laptop) Great work :)
Apr 5 15:09:11 15m 33s Pooh-Pooh ♥ 2 Liked the idea. It's pretty fun. Really hard though could hardly get past the second screen since travelers kept spawning right on top of me & I had no time to dodge. The game could use some checkpoints or a quick retry button. appart from that it's a pretty fun game. good job :)
