| Jan 9 15:55:51 | CORN BLOCKBASTER | ♥ 0 | Nice game. Didn't understand what the point on the dynamite was though as if you upgrade your tool, you can get it faster that way. was fun though. | |
| Jan 9 16:09:33 | 13m 42s | Harvest | ♥ 1 | Nice, took me a while to know that you could drag them around. it is kind of chaotic with the prices of things, but it reminds me of bad piggies in a way making a contraption to hopefully not explode. Good job. |
| Jan 9 16:24:00 | 14m 27s | Match-3: Crop Rotation | ♥ 1 | Nice. I wish it had some indication of what was going to grow I think after trying it a few times they take several turns to grow, and I couldn't keep track of them all. was fun and I definitely did better the second time. the first I was like why are these nor scoring points and then halfway through I was like oh I see. It's like the bejewel game where you spin the board but with more stuff to keep track of, I like it. |
| Jan 9 17:32:29 | 1h 08m | BUGGED | ♥ 1 | I'm a be lazy and just copy my post. Nice, I like this game, I like that it freezes when you have to put a tile, I'm bad at action games so it would be a nightmare otherwise. The first time I played it it turned dark all the sudden and was really hard to see I thought it was because I took too much damage but the second time it never did. not sure what that was. Had fun and I think this has potential. I like that you end up being your own demise as it's your fault that the board is clunky. |
| Jan 9 22:39:56 | 5h 07m | The Cactilogue | ♥ 1 | Nice I like it. It is nice and relaxing. the star ones seem a bit hard, or I just suck ether way I got better at it after a while. It is very cute. Good job! |
| Jan 10 03:34:22 | 4h 54m | N.O.A.S. | ♥ 3 | As someone who has worked in a produce department, I can confirm that this is accurate company behavior. Sorry you died we are now firing you. Great game. Had fun not sure what happiness does I'm guessing nothing? is expensive though. |
| Jan 10 03:46:28 | 12m 06s | Space Harvester | ♥ 2 | Fun little game. Shooting seems less then useful though (or I just suck.) it just gets me killed every time I try to shoot them also the sound it plays when you die seems a bit loud compared to the other noises it scared me the first time. Oh also an arrow or something pointing to the mother ship when it is off screen would be helpful (unless that is the intended gameplay.), I got lost a few times and had to loop around for a while till I found the ship again. All in all, a good game just needs some more polish (don't like all of these games do though). |
| Jan 10 20:47:17 | 17h 00m | mad veggies | ♥ 1 | Nice little game the editor is cool. The level select could be a bit better maybe if it was like square buttons, you could have it save levels into some custom tab or something (sounds a bit much for a jam game but if you were going to polish it up then I think it would help.) I also noticed that if you click off of the game the music seems to bunch up, and it ends up playing the music really fast. Also, apples are evil! All in all, a nice little puzzle game with some potential given some polish. thanks for making and sharing it. |
| Jan 10 21:11:41 | 24m 24s | Getting Apples In It | ♥ 1 | I love the voice is like they did good, and my drone probably burned more CO2 into the atmosphere then all of the industrial revolution. Is really hard and I am really bad at it. but had nice music. Also, when you select a level there is this popping sound. I was playing the web version. it is also really big it didn't fit on my screen and the full screen mode was not working. Anyway, loved your game all the same...Doh just realized that the sound is not one of the things we are rating. The robot is cute love the eyes I got up to level 4 and gave up with the pipe there was no way I was going to do that. Have a good one. Yip yap! |
| Jan 10 21:52:56 | 41m 15s | Nimkip! | ♥ 3 | This is totally a new idea and has never been done before amazing! all joking aside bit buggy didn't even know there were blue ones the first time through. got waped buy a green thing? and lost all of my minions had to start over and just avoided those ended up finishing. Seems like with a bit of polish it can be really good though I would suggest making them have other abilities if you expand it further (the reason that they have the different ones is that you need to have all of them to finish the game.) and I felt like after getting the purple ones they were the only one I ever made. Though this could be fixed also buy having them deal different "elements" of damage as well. All in all, fun game if not a bit buggy sometimes. |
| Jan 11 00:31:15 | 2h 38m | Click Click Farm | ♥ 1 | Nice, I like this game it's like cookie clicker but with building. The music is awesome! I could just leave it open and do other things and have it loop the music. Not sure what the drop rate for the carrot was but it finally dropped for me as the last thing. (My luck probably just sucks.) Was a good fun little experience. |
| Jan 11 00:45:43 | 14m 28s | Slimevulture | ♥ 1 | Nice game, love the upgrade system I had all the bows! first time I went into the house and started the boss fight and just died. Second time managed to beat him. was fun. |
| Jan 11 19:25:38 | 18h 39m | Harveyster | ♥ 4 | Nice little game you made I'm not very good at it. but it was fun. I keep trying to fight people in one spot so that I don't waste the harvest and then I die. The art is nice I like that it waits to ring the bell before attacking you it makes it much more assessable for people like me (my reflexes are eh.). The pumpkin guy is cute, and it didn't randomly turn into a horror game so that's a plus. Thanks for the fun game. |
| Jan 13 02:14:54 | 30h 49m | Hex-Yield | ♥ 2 | Hey just got around to playing your game was missing tile 20 then saw it in the comments went back an got it. Very fun game spent the time I was supposed to be working on the spreadsheet for one of our games playing this one instead oops... One thing I think would be nice would be a hint system not one that tells you what it is but maybe a hint. The order sort of does that but I knew it had something to do with the town just not sure what. Anyway, would not do my job again 10/10. Yip yap! |
| Jan 13 06:37:46 | 4h 22m | Buzzy Business | ♥ 1 | Nice I keep getting eaten by frogs, but it is fun it's like the opposite of those swat the mosquito to get an iPod adds. The controls are Niceley implemented music is nice and I liked the graphics. Makes it easy to just start another run too which is nice. All in all, had fun would attack people again. Yip yap! Edit: If you want a non-farming or soul harvest game you should do my game and fish with some kobolds. Yip. |
| Jan 13 06:57:57 | 20m 11s | Plot Luck | ♥ 1 | Nice little game it is quite addicting played it to 100 coins. the art is cute. |
| Jan 13 07:10:19 | 12m 22s | Dew Drop | ♥ 1 | Well it's a thing...It works? it has a lot of bugs...and not just the ant kind...Though I'm guessing you know all that. Good effort I suppose. You submitted a thing! On a more serious note, I think you have some potential here it is cute, and it has a bit of strategy that with a bit more...I guess anything? could be good. The music is nice. All in all, um it runs...Yip yap! |
| Jan 15 18:04:33 | 58h 54m | HARRR Vests | ♥ 1 | This game is amazing, And I'm not saying that just because I like puns, and I was thinking of a pirate game at the start as well. One thing I think would be nice would be an in-game tutorial but that's more on me for not reading the page (I'm not nocking you for it just giving you some how to improve it.). I do think if you made mouse controls it might be more intuitive though not sure that would be good might make it too easy for some. I will also say the fact that you can't lose is nice (not sure if you can but I didn't so I'm basing it on that even though they keep threatening me.). All in all, the core mechanics are mostly solid and if this is your first solo jam hey you made and released the thing. I do think that if you mark the mistakes, it would be funny if they reacted to them, but I can see how it could be annoying if they actually threw you overboard. But that's my two cents. Thanks for the game I love that you are just removing arms and legs off of the cloths because they are pirates. It has this whole horrible hidden narrative and I love it. Good work. Also balancing how much you do is tricky; we entered this jam to see what we could do with a time crunch and I'm generally happy with what we got. Pacing is everything it's not good to burn yourself out and sleep is important. Yip yap. |
| Jan 16 20:52:33 | 26h 48m | Beet Island | ♥ 1 | Nice little game it reminds me of throwing rocks in Control. Vary fun. It's vary intuitive after you get hit the first time, I was like evil cubes! I think if you were to expand on it a tutorial would be nice, (though I understand game jam.) All in all, fairly nice game with a bit more polish could be a good arcade game. I'm not nearly as good as you are at it, but you can get better with practice. One thing I did notice is that the enemies always come from one direction and so it is hard to pick the beets in that corner I'm guessing if you work on this more then they would come from other directions as well it just seemed like for this one the beets in that corner seemed less then helpful. At the end of the day though I had fun playing and you made a game so good job! Yip yap! |
| Jan 17 23:43:52 | 26h 51m | King of Veggies | ♥ 1 | Okay the core mechanics are fun I just noticed a problem with the higher numbers mathematically if you get an 8 it will take at least 9 spaces to clear assuming you get them all in a row. (Very unlikely.) Now it was fun, but I think if you are going to go that high of numbers on your cards you will need more spaces or some way to remove more than one at a time from them. As it is right now if you get a 7 of pumpkins and a 7 of cabbage you probably lose space if all three show up to almost always loose space. 8s are even worse and I never saw a 9 but they would almost always lose you space unless you were very lucky and only one showed up. I think if you make 6 or 5 the highest number with the 30 spaces it might work better but I'm not a mathematician this is just my guess. Okay now that that is out of the way...I liked the game it is fun the water making them higher value is a nice mechanic. The sound is fab. Love the pixel art. Yeah just the math thing. Also, space thing is only a problem if you don't want to have a "wall of doom" in your game if you want the player to lose at some point then it is fine. I personally find it a bit annoying if the game makes me lose but maybe that is just me. All in all, a fun little game as long as you don't notice that probability is going to make you lose. Yip yap. |
| Jan 18 03:48:35 | 4h 04m | It was all for the Tuna | ♥ 2 | Cool game and you be a cat so yay. I fished ALL of them! not sure if the way I was supposed to catch the gold tuna was scaring them into a corner but that is what I did. Had fun. All in all, Cool graphics I like that the cat sits on top of the boat. Keep up the good work Yip yap. |
