Apr 21 11:09:57		Stick Basketball Arcade	♥ 0	I can't figure out how to throw the ball high enough to score. Are you supposed to release in the direction you want to aim? Or make some sort of dragging motion before release? I did accidentally score a few times with the ball going in from below.
Apr 21 11:21:21	11m 24s	NumberCatch	♥ 1	It's an interesting idea, 2 things. (1) I died 2 times at the switch from "random positive" to "0", is it even possible to survive there? Do I need a frame-perfect number type or something? (2) Game would be more challenging if it didn't list the numbers so the player would have to calculate. 0 seems to be an easy way out for most of the sequences, I would also remove 0.
Apr 21 12:27:18	1h 05m	Jelly Strike: Tower Offensive	♥ 1	VERY cool idea and VERY cute animations I loved them a lot! As people mentioned, healer or healer+tank jellies are just the winning combination. On the technical side, the last level consumed all 32 GB of my RAM o_O also the first of my 10 jellies died and then the level restarted and I was able to send in an additional 10 jellies (19 in total)
Apr 21 12:53:57	26m 39s	CigBan	♥ 2	I like the idea and the graphics, and how you can fully move around and even shoot into the second window if you miss in the first window It does really need a difficulty ramp, with the son going faster for example or consuming smaller objects. Also the health is confusing -- it stays on "excellent" after your first slip-up and is "average" right until the son dies, just putting X/7 would be less confusing.
Apr 21 16:31:02	3h 37m	Fill The Generator	♥ 1	I like the maze idea, definitely takes a lot of skill. Although making different-colors or otherwise distinctive rooms might help the player orient themselves a bit, like maybe a spent fuel pool, a control room, or just a janitor closet. I wasn't really able to get around (jump over) enemies, you can kind of avoid them by pushing them with fuel tanks, but overall I would have liked to finish the game.
Apr 21 17:42:46	1h 11m	ENDURACE - Drift Or Die	♥ 3	Wow a full 3D game I do love that! A small bug I found is the cars and track disappearing if you are in a tunnel, I guess this is a bug with the back-face or occlusion culling, maybe the camera needs to go lower inside tunnels. As for game design, it was quite fun, although it isn't quite clear when you are hurting someone vs being hurt. Also the Death Race can be cheated by just staying off-road the whole game and swooping in for the final kill at the end, it makes more sense if this was a proper pit as in a demolition derby.
Apr 21 18:32:39	49m 53s	Different Strokes	♥ 1	I don't get it. I couldn't see any paintings, neither blank nor roped off ones. Are the servers down or something?
Apr 21 18:38:47	6m 08s	Climbrr0	♥ 1	This reminds me a lot of my Doodle Jump clone from 2010 (https://sites.google.com/site/lazarusprogrammevonjfk/jahr-2010/quartal-2/pdj). As other said it is frustrating that you only get a wimpy jump while moving, but interesting to see a Rust game.
Apr 21 18:49:59	11m 12s	Oh No My Trophy	♥ 1	Interesting and fun, although I did end up using the bike pump and moving the mouse quickly across the screen, maybe fewer or more powerful obstacles could've been nice. And I didn't understand exactly why it game overed since there were still trophies left?
Apr 21 19:01:49	11m 50s	Bitboy	♥ 1	If the aim of the game is to confuse me then that has been achieved
Apr 21 19:10:17	8m 28s	JAM HERO	♥ 0	I kind of thought this was an overused idea, but the execution was really nice :)
Apr 21 19:19:04	8m 47s	Aito Deliverance	♥ 1	I wasn't able to figure out which of my boxes actually were the one I was supposed to deliver, so I tried photographing each of them and they all said incorrect box and I gave up. Too bad since the game looks like it has a lot of depth and effort baked into it with apparently 6 endings!?
Apr 21 19:28:44	9m 40s	Brain Burgers	♥ 2	Wasn't able to figure out how to combine the cooked brain with the toasted bun. Also had the infinite machine fixing bug.
Apr 21 19:30:47	2m 03s	Virtomae - Virtual Pet Buddy - Pet Anything	♥ 1	Got virus detected in Windows 10, couldn't play it
Apr 21 19:35:32	4m 45s	Don't Pop the Bubble!	♥ 0	Ayooo libGDX represent!! I like the idea, it's too hard though the bubble is too fast at the start, it should go slow and move faster.
