Jan 26 00:04:22 Far VVest ♥ 3 Fun! Simple. A bit macabre. I like this kind of progression system, even though the upgrades did not have side effects. Great humor, with the waiter dialogue and the voice acting.
Jan 26 00:25:39 21m 17s Reap What They Sow ♥ 1 Good tutorial. Still I was a bit lost at the beginning (where to go). In my opinion: Art is ok, sound is good, music is good enough for a short game. The gameplay is not as exciting as I first imagined. Cannot quite say why. Maybe it's a bit too static, as the world does not really interact with the player.
Jan 26 00:48:16 22m 37s Grim Phantom ♥ 0 Fun game. Design, movement, and everything felt smooth and polished. Could maybe use a little tutorial page and an indicator for the "attack" area. Also, there seems to be no difficulty progression? It gets too easy once you reach a certain point.
Jan 26 01:46:08 57m 52s Soul's Path ♥ 3 Great music! Adorable graphics. I really like the style overall. The mood is fantastic. Gameplay: Interesting idea. Gives some nice mechanics. It's also relatively varied. Sadly, there've been some small things that bothered me: - It took me a while to get the correct entrance to the third level (where you have to go down). I was not paying attention to the clouds, and they are gone once you collected enough souls. - Travelling to the right side of the screen, I started to glitch around. This happened in other locations too. - Fourth level I got stuck again, as the right rock did fall over, so I was unable to reach it from the right side. I noticed you can reset them by pressing R, and I finally made it after a few attempts. Don't know if this is intentional. - Sometimes the fox gets stuck, which is often fixed by crawling backward a bit and retrying. These are all small things. Unfortunately, they added up and caused enough frustration to break the otherwise wonderful experience. All in all, it's still an extraordinary game. I'm glad I found it and was able to play it.
Jan 26 20:28:17 18h 42m Future Food Competition ♥ 1 Interesting idea, with nice concepts. I liked the character design, having planets as gardeners. It's a bit dry gameplay-wise. If you make the wrong decision, you have to start from the beginning. Apparently I'm not a good gardener myself. I had to restart quite a few times.
Jan 26 20:46:50 18m 33s Harvest : Mars ♥ 1 The idea for the game is great. A kind of game I usually enjoy playing. I think you noticed that your ideas were a bit over-ambitious. This just happens very fast. It certainly happens to me aswell, so I can relate to you. But I agree that the game jams are great way to improve. Within a few days you learn a lot! The next one will be much better.
Jan 26 21:17:09 30m 19s Evergreen 2 ♥ 2 This really took me back… I quite enjoyed the retro charm of this game. Implementing a day-night cycle and seasons in this short amount of time is quite impressive. Almost feels like a short demo for a bigger game. Not sure if I got all aspects of the game, though. For example: does the knife has a purpose? Is there a reason why apple and deer are displayed at the top of the screen? More inetractions with the world would have been nice. But there is only so much you can do in two-three days. Also, diagonal movement also felt weird.
Jan 26 21:28:37 11m 28s Sandwich Runner ♥ 1 Nooo! My sandwich is falling appart! Also, so many questions… Is there a goal or a way to fail? Mayo grows on fields? You put carrots on a sandwich? Fun! (for a short amount of time).
Jan 26 22:08:53 40m 16s Void Reader - A desktop multiplayer game. ♥ 2 I'm absolutely amazed! I don't know where to start… Harvesting data from your PC is an awesome interpretation of the theme. Also, using the desktop is clever and incredible unexploited. Switching between "spheres" is brilliant. I usually don't like idle games much. But you put so many good thoughts into this game. I think it also has potential to be extended in many directions. I mean… having a small cat-thing living on your desktop is just cute! (well, things like that did exist in the past, but somewhat are forgotten).
Jan 27 15:03:34 16h 54m Mothman's Forest ♥ 1 I really like the idea! Style is excellent. Design, animations, sounds… Just great. The core concept of the game is also interesting and fun. I just got stuck too many times in trees. And it was not always clear why I lost. I think the light sources turned off in rare occasions, so I had to pay attention to the torches themselves.
