| May 9 13:28:41 | Delivery Boy Express | ♥ 2 | Cute graphics and cool mechanics! 😄 I did find it quite hard to control and to avoid all the flying things. I completed some missions, but it wasn't clear if was starting over all the time or not (because many symbols stay on the compass). But suddenly I won the game! 😄 | |
| May 9 14:15:52 | 47m 11s | Birdmail | ♥ 1 | Original take on the theme! It is fun to play and then play again to try to improve your highscore. It took me quite a while before I saw the cooldown countdown in the turrets and predator birds. I got to 1349 (with a trackpad). 🐦 I like the graphics, especially the background and the title screen. It would be nice to have some highlights when you hover over an object that you can interact. Nice choice of music! 🎵 Since you didn't compose it yourself, you could consider opting out for audio. --- Edit: with a mouse I got 1358 :) I didn't like so much that the world didn't fit in the screen, and that I often moved the screen around in stead of an object. But it's addicting! |
| May 9 14:37:28 | 21m 36s | DreamLoom | ♥ 0 | Nice and calm game! 🙂 I like the overall mood/atmosphere, the graphics and the music. I first tried it on my laptop(with a trackpad), but I quickly switched to my phone. I tried some of the patterns, but found it quite tedious. Then I tried the endless mode for a bit. When I returned to the home screen and came back to the game, I had to start from the first pattern again, which prompted me to stop playing. I think I would prefer real-life weaving more. 😉 |
| May 9 17:09:41 | 2h 32m | Manhole Mailman | ♥ 1 | Fun idea! It runs smoothly, but I hated the controls at first though. ;) Firstly, I don't like jumping with space bar, especially not in combination with WASD. At the start, it felt like there wasn't any time to aim with the mouse, so I thought it should have been a button on the keyboard as well. Later, I just ditched the steering with WASD, and just focused on SPACE, E and LMB. That worked better. It actually got a little addictive, trying to get further and further! I got till 257. I would have liked (two different) sounds when changing packages. I like the graphics and the color scheme. Well done! |
| May 9 17:36:32 | 26m 51s | Post the Most | ♥ 2 | Nice idea, but the controls felt a bit clunky. It was hard to get the letters where I wanted them, but maybe that was because it is embedded. The download link doesn't work for me. I once turned a letter by accident, but it took me quite a while to reproduce this trick. The stamps seem to be a different color in the explanation than in the actual game. I would have liked to see a score when I was game over. I like the scales and that the other objects also had a mass 😄 I like the tune, although it's a bit short. |
| May 9 17:54:19 | 17m 47s | Ghost Deliver | ♥ 2 | Hehe, you wrote a lot of little stories! I like the graphics, but it lacked some gameplay for me. |
| May 9 18:40:11 | 45m 52s | Pizza Time Rush | ♥ 1 | Nice game! Now I want pizza 😅 🍕 The driving was a bit funny, but I got the hang of it. A minimap would have been nice, but for now my strategy was to follow the left-most or the right-most roads till the arrow was horizontal ;) Picking up the pizzas at the pizza parlour was one of the hardest things, because a car can't move sideways. I like that there were different types of pizzas, but for the gameplay that didn't really seem to matter. The text that showed which house you had to find could have been a bit more clear, also what part of the house counted as the front. After 27 deliveries I stopped, because it became a little repetitive and too easy. Cute graphics. Overall, well done! |
| May 12 15:46:27 | 69h 06m | GobEx | ♥ 1 | I had a lot of fun playing this game! Quite addictive, trying to get in to the highscores board. I got to 10705. The goblin is cute and the packages and their replacement gifts are funny 😄 Instruction + tutorial felt a bit double, but it's nice that you included them. Sometimes I would have the package selected after I filled it with a replacement, and sometimes not. I couldn't find out yet when what happened. This was sometimes a bit frustrating. Maybe it would be nice to highlight the package that the player selected? Cute art style + nice music + fun gameplay = great entry! 👏 |
| May 12 16:11:23 | 24m 56s | Lo-Fi Pizza Delivery Guy During Armageddon Trying To Earn $10000 To Buy A Car | ♥ 2 | Frantic and fun game! The music hyped me up to keep trying another round. Like @cheesepencil above, I also was confused about for whom I had pizzas. But apparently, everybody wants the same type of pizza. :) I was a bit confused by the shop/spacebar action, which I never got to use, I think I got to level 21 once. |
| May 16 22:31:59 | 102h 20m | ▲●■♚ | ♥ 1 | Nice game! I like abstract games without words. :) I figured almost everything out, except for the green/orange crowns. I had to have a look in the comments for that. I finished the first level and got an orange crown on the second one. I like the sound scape the game creates. One small thing: I was confused by zooming in and out on my trackpad, since apparently you have to move two fingers up and down, and now pinch them. 😄 Awesome entry! 👏 |
| May 16 23:05:59 | 34m 00s | Frogivio | ♥ 1 | Cute game with cute graphics! I was a bit surprised that the boxes started moving diagonally and bouncing all over the place after the first level. 😄 I was also surprised that I could move boxes away from the wall by walking closely along it. Interacting with the green leaves seemed to be a bit funny sometimes, I didn't really have control over them. I think you can create more challenging levels with the mechanics introduced in these levels. Nice music, but the loop is a bit short. I had fun, and completed all the levels. Nice entry! |
| May 16 23:26:53 | 20m 54s | The Courier of Cobblecove | ♥ 1 | Nice game, with nice music! I finished the game after 8 deliveries, did I find them all? :) I like there's feedback on a click, but I was sometimes a bit frustrated getting stuck behind stuff or people. The graphics are really nice, but the walking animation is a bit funny, maybe because the character is facing "me" in stead of the way he's going. :) Overall, well done! 👏 |
| May 17 00:22:14 | 55m 21s | Baby Dino Delivery | ♥ 1 | Nice entry! I like the 3-move twist. I got to 165 in Hard mode, and 276 in Fair mode. babydinos.png Sometimes a goal seemed unreachable and also unclear: at some point I needed 3x 3 blue dinos, but there were only 8 blue dinos in my game. So I was wondering how to do that, but then I noticed that if two goals are the same, they both get crossed out after one match. 🤔 A goal of matching 5 dinos seemed quite impossible most of the times. Cool music! |
| May 17 22:31:56 | 22h 09m | Buccaneer-mail-co | ♥ 0 | Nice entry, with very cool graphics! The bombs on the decks don't seem to do much damage, except to the player character when it's too near. Or am I missing something? 🤔 The gameover was often a surprise. I didn't see any "health" indication. It's nice that you can jump into the mast of the ship, but I didn't see any use for it in the game (as far as I got). The music is epic! |
| Jul 7 20:58:22 | 1222h 26m | Volksdam | ♥ 1 | I kept this tab open since the game looked so cute and Dutch 😄 I finally found some time to play it! I love the graphics! The buildings are pretty, and it all looks very pleasing to the eye, and very Dutch. 🇳🇱 But I only have time to enjoy that in the beginning of the game, or when I made a mistake. 😉 I enjoyed playing the game, and got to 1544 on my third try. The speed is so high in the end, everything just gets blurry! And at those times I would have loved if the arrows where a bit more distinguishable, in color or vertical position. I think I would have liked that a mistake would only slow the player down a little, in stead of going back to the starting velocity. Overall, great job! 😄 |
| Oct 31 23:48:10 | 2786h 49m | DETOUR | ♥ 2 | Awesome game! I just played it after seeing your post about the Steam version, I liked it a lot! Very well done 👏 |
