| May 1 14:34:24 | Banish Pit | ♥ 1 | I like the game mechanic, though I found it somewhat difficult to direct the demons into the pit initially. I kept punching them the wrong way, and I think being able to punch without having to jump would reduce the difficulty curve and make it more accessible in the beginning. I eventually go the hang of it though and found the demon-punching to be quite satisfying. I did have quite a bit of success just standing in one place and waiting for them to come to me, but the spikes and balloon demons did encourage movement as the game progressed. I enjoyed the experience and will probably play more of this polished puncher post-LD. | |
| May 1 15:44:55 | 1h 10m | Dungeon Delivery | ♥ 2 | The difficulty curve is a bit steep, and I initially found the precision jumps in a couple of the rooms to be very unforgiving (which could be off-putting to some players). However, I kept trying and eventually got the hang of it. Even with the timer, there is a relaxing element to the game and it feels rather like a peaceful job this dungeon delivery. The graphics were great as were the sounds, and I appreciated the map being only available in the starting room. That made me have to remember which turns to make, which I found quite engaging. I really enjoyed this and could see it becoming a full-fledged game. Well done! |
| May 1 15:55:55 | 11m 00s | Banana's Invasion | ♥ 1 | I like the fruit theme of the game and initially thought that I'd just be picking up weapons to kill more fruit. Imagine my surprise when I get allies that actually fight for me. Very nice. Also, the sounds made me laugh ... especially the shotgun. |
| May 1 16:24:38 | 28m 43s | PACKAGES | ♥ 2 | I enjoyed it. There are no time limits, just puzzles that start out simple and gradually get more difficult. Great job keeping the scope small and delivering a nicely-polished entry. |
| May 1 16:29:26 | 4m 48s | Mt. Deliverest | ♥ 9 | Great execution overall on this. I enjoyed it very much. My only criticism would be that I had to wait for the climber to fall and hit the bottom before I could restart. I did figure out later that I could restart from the pause menu during a fall, but I think it should be easier to do. Having a button to allow restart as soon as the climber falls would make for a better experience. Other than that, the sounds, graphics, mood, gameplay, and polish are great. Nice job! |
| May 2 22:08:56 | 29h 39m | Fridge Floppers | ♥ 0 | Excellent use of the theme to create a fun little physics-based puzzle game. The minimalist graphics are great for the style and the difficulty ramps up nicely. well done |
| May 2 22:39:46 | 30m 50s | If I Fits, I Sits | ♥ 2 | Hilarious and frustrating in just the right amounts. The controls were a little sensitive for my taste, but each time I boxed a cat I was delighted. Loved it |
| May 3 14:42:03 | 16h 02m | Mailman Murphy | ♥ 1 | It reminds me of old arcade games, which is a good thing. I also liked that you changed up the envelope delivery such that every level wasn't just by color. |
| May 3 14:59:40 | 17m 37s | WORD DROP | ♥ 0 | I find word games relaxing and enjoyable, so this was great. Perhaps adding some difficulty levels would be nice or some kind of points system, but overall it is a very good entry. |
| May 3 17:48:10 | 2h 48m | Mailville | ♥ 1 | I love the feedback you get when shooting mail into a mailbox. So juicy. The movement and controls are quite good too. Also, having the little guys complain when you shoot them was a nice touch. I completed the neighborhood mail delivery because I was having so much fun. Very fun game and I could see this being expanded. Nice job |
| May 4 21:23:16 | 27h 35m | The Pigeon Post Principle | ♥ 3 | My only wish is that Anne-Marie would walk a bit faster. Other than that, I thought it was really fun, and enjoyed trying to figure out how to push the fans around to get where I needed to go. Really great job keeping the game mechanics simple and small while providing a fun experience! |
| May 4 21:48:31 | 25m 15s | Ravenhaul | ♥ 2 | Simply phenomenal stuff all around. The graphics, music, and game play are all top-notch. This is one of the few games that I was compelled to keep playing. |
| May 4 21:59:02 | 10m 31s | K-SANDWICH | ♥ 0 | This was a simple concept well-executed, though the jump and punch/kick controls did at times have me pressing the wrong key combinations. I quite enjoyed delivering knuckle sandwiches and dropkicks to the unsuspecting little dudes. A very fun and innovative puzzle game in disguise. |
