| Jan 12 00:12:27 | Fenasi | ♥ 1 | PROS: -I liked the art style, I liked how the art was consistent too. -I liked the mechanic of killing enemies then planting seeds that you harvest -I liked that there was a tutorial, very helpful -The gameplay loop was good as it required you to properly manage your actions. CONS: -I felt like the task of finding all the items was kind of pointless, as the items had no clues as to where theyd be and it felt like more of a chore. -The indicator for the health of the enemies I actually didn't even see until the second play, it could be better to have a health bar instead. -Small bug, the seeds I collected would persist from one game to the next. Overall a great entry, very well polished :) | |
| Jan 12 00:26:18 | 13m 51s | Fields of Fire | ♥ 1 | Very nice and clean tower defense game. Here are my pros and cons! PROS: - I like the simple art style, it avoided visual noise very well. - I like the gameplay mechanic of how killing enemies and growing your farm are directly intertwined, and it kept me on my toes. - I like the animations on the turrets - I thought the UI was nice and simple to follow (however could have been customised more to look visually pleasing) CONS: - I felt like the game got easy once I had all the turrets in place - After I bought 3 turrets, I couldnt buy the other types which I was confused by. Overall a great game and I'd love to see it expanded upon, and would also be great with some sound and music :) |
| Jan 12 16:33:58 | 16h 07m | Harvester 008 | ♥ 1 | I was unfortunately unable to run the game :[ Dissapointed because it looks so good! Heres the last lines of the Debug file if it helps <3 16.32.15.419: ConstantsApp: [main] Registered value: DEBUG_LIVE_TEXTURE_RELOAD : true 16.32.15.423: ResourceManager: [main] Adding EntityGroupUid to protected list: -2147483647 16.32.15.429: ScreenManager: [main] Added screen 'MenuBackgroundScreen' 16.32.15.432: ScreenManager: [main] Added screen 'MainMenu' 16.32.15.432: GameWindow: [main] Loading GL content 16.32.15.473: GLDebug: [main] GL_INVALID_OPERATION (1282) |
| Jan 12 17:07:17 | 33m 19s | Soul Gardener | ♥ 0 | I like the simple style of this game, and I love the mechanic of collecting souls to grow your garden. The enemy movement being floaty was nicely done too. however as other have said, I feel like A for jump is counter intuitive, it could just be up arrow and have the down arrow to go through doors, for example. Otherwise, the controls felt smooth and nice. Had fun playing overall, and was able to complete the game :] |
| Jan 12 22:08:45 | 5h 01m | Boxed In | ♥ 0 | This is such a simple but effective game! A very unique idea and done really well. My only negative comment really is that I was never able to jump over the DVD icon, but that may be a skill issue lol I love the consistent artstyle and the music was great, I also liked the detail where the DVD icon would have a devilish grin when close to you! |
| Jan 12 22:20:48 | 12m 03s | Reap What You Blow | ♥ 1 | I like this idea, the controls were difficult but unique and fun :) Some music and SFX would have helped, maybe could have made the game a little longer too but of course i understand thats not always possible within the time limit. Great entry <3 |
| Jan 12 22:30:03 | 9m 15s | So You Want To Be a Soul Reaper? | ♥ 2 | Really cool entry! I love the concept of the reaper as a helper and good guy rather than villain, and I love the art style :) Maybe a suggestion for improvement could be to have some particle effects, or even a feature where the souls slow inch back towards the start of the level? Also, Im a UI enjoyer and I loved the text! Great entry all round though :) |
| Jan 12 22:44:33 | 14m 30s | Junkship | ♥ 1 | Really nice entry! The graphical style is amazing and the overall idea of the game is great. My one complaint would be that the controls can be pretty annoying, but that may be a skill issue. And yes, the shaders are great :) |
| Jan 13 11:20:50 | 12h 36m | Wurmi | ♥ 1 | Awesome little puzzle game here! I found this very fun to play eventhough Im not normally a fan of puzzle games. It felt very reward to beat the level with all the ants especially :) |
| Jan 15 20:39:15 | 57h 18m | Harvest Moon | ♥ 1 | Unfortunately we couldn't get multiplayer to work, however from playing locally against bots I can say that the game loop is simple to understand, however maybe too straight forward to create a good challenge. It seems to be pretty dependant on RNG. However it is still an impressive entry for multiplayer and I think it wouldve been fun to play against my friend. Another note is that the graphics to me clash too much, I think having the moon be more basic looking like the cars wouldve worked well, or the other way round, having the cars be more realistic to match the moon <3 |
| Jan 15 20:54:50 | 15m 35s | Picking Apples 1.3 | ♥ 1 | Nice game, interesting that you made it in blender. The game feels a bit slow paced and there needs to be some more game mechanics to make it engaging, maybe something chasing you? That for me is the biggest comment, but otherwise it looks good, especially as your first game jam :) |
| Jan 15 21:08:18 | 13m 28s | Soul Harvest | ♥ 1 | A good foundation for a game exists here, it could be more challenging and fun if there were some things you can't hit with your scythe, to make it a bit more frantic like fruit ninja. Competing with the AI reaper did not make for good game pace as once you surpassed him, the game felt directionless. Overall good attempt with the graphics and style - the dialogue added some nice personality that not many other games have. |
| Jan 15 21:33:57 | 25m 39s | Agricultural Ascension | ♥ 2 | Overall this is my favourite game so far, I love the uniqueness of the puzzle style. I think the simple board graphics mixed with the more complex tile graphics works super well. I managed to get to level 9 before my drunk ass gave up. It felt super satisfying getting a level done, and the animation at the end of each level was super clean. # gameGood |
| Jan 15 21:41:07 | 7m 10s | Crop Rush | ♥ 1 | Overall I love the simplistic pixelart style of the game, however I think what would make this concept really good is when you can only move on wheat tiles so that you must always optimize your movement rather than aiming for a star grade. I like the music, it gives a nice chill farmer vibe. I also really like the UI btw <3 ( I am a UI conosiour (however u spell that) ) # <3 |
| Jan 15 21:52:19 | 11m 12s | VA-13 | ♥ 1 | Theres a really good framework for a game, however I think its lacking a bit of uniqueness. I also found it pretty easy to cheese by standing in a corner and firing. There could be some enemy variation where they can shoot, so you must dodge. The graphics are lovely and the sounds work really well with the game, I think if the game was expanded on it would be super as it has such a good base. I also think the shoot on Z is kinda awkward for a keyboard, I prefer to have it available on mouse button 1. overall great entry <3 |
| Jan 15 21:59:24 | 7m 05s | Crimes of the Suture | ♥ 0 | An interesting and unique idea, however I was sure I had found the spot where the thing was, but I didnt know how to finish/execute the incision. I like the auditory aspect especially and the graphics is also good. Good entry <3 |
| Jan 15 22:06:16 | 6m 52s | Rabbit's Carrot Rush | ♥ 1 | This was really fun to play agains my friend! Very impressive for the time it took. Id say make the map bigger and with hazards possible <3 |
| Jan 15 22:17:34 | 11m 18s | Apollo 111 | ♥ 1 | I absolutely love the graphics and UI of this game! The gameplay was a pleasant suprise as its not what I expected it to be, but I really enjoyed it and it made me think ahead and plan my actions. It was effective in not being overcomplicated by having too many resources to manage, but still enough that it was well balanced. A great entry! |
| Jan 16 01:26:35 | 3h 09m | Happy Tree Harvest | ♥ 0 | Hey i just wanna know how did you get in the jam by yourself? I thought if youre solo it puts you in compo? |
