| Oct 18 19:11:56 | Tiny Factory | ♥ 2 | This is a super fun little game! I had a great time playing, I got to about level 16 before dying because I couldn't tell where the output I was for the new piece. It would be nice if the game highlighted unsatisfied generators / consumers so that you don't lose track of them when the game starts getting more hectic. It would be really fun to play this as like a five-minute high-score game on mobile! | |
| Oct 18 19:14:22 | 2m 26s | Berg Jump | ♥ 3 | This game was a lot of fun! I really liked the art and the music, they were super *chill* (pun intended). I do wish that the game was a bit more consistent with spawning new icebergs, it felt like most of the time I died was because the game just wouldn't give me anywhere else to go, which was a bit frustrating. Nonetheless, I had good time playing! Nice job :) |
| Oct 18 19:19:15 | 4m 53s | BrainCell-Limited | ♥ 3 | This game is super addicting, despite the relatively straightforward mechanics. I had an infuriatingly great time trying to get through the whole gauntlet, before giving up in the maze room where the door doesn't open for like 30 seconds. As with the other commenters, I also experienced the bullets spawn killing, and occasionally multiplying when I died, which was frustrating. I think with a little more polish this game could be really really fun. Nice job! |
| Oct 18 19:23:04 | 3m 49s | Winds Of Pilgrimage | ♥ 2 | This game is so ambitious and cool! It feels like a baby The Witness, which in my opinion is one of the best puzzle games I've played. The puzzle mechanics were interesting, and the open world layout was really cool. I found myself getting lost in some places, particularly the left side of the map which felt pretty empty, and there were also some difficulty jumps that I wasn't sure how to get past. But wandering around, I felt a huge sense of accomplishment every time I completed a new puzzle. I think it would be nice if the symbols were a little clearer on the pads. If the pixelation effect was to the geometry to avoid it jittering when the player moves around, that would probably help a lot with clarity. I didn't end up beating the last puzzle because I got stuck on one on the far right, but I plan to try again soon. Despite my critiques, I think this game is super fun, and I'm really impressed that you got it all working in the timeframe. Fantastic entry, scoring this very highly!!! |
| Oct 18 19:31:33 | 8m 29s | Free Him | ♥ 2 | Nice game! The physics feel snappy, the penguin pixel art is adorable, and the wall jumping feels really solid. I was surprised when I realized I didn't have to jump to wall-jump, but I think it's actually a good control scheme, maybe it shouldn't fire when you're grounded, though. Collecting all of the salmon was fun, I like how you get to see an overview of the whole level before you start. I had a lot of fun playing! Great job! |
| Oct 18 19:35:33 | 4m 00s | Limited Space - Fade to Black | ♥ 1 | I LOVED THIS GAME! Okay yeah the physics were a little janky, the hitboxes were a bit cruel, but this sort of challenging platformer is my THING. I beat all the levels, and even managed to do that glitch you were talking about where you can walljump off of a boost pad (AND i got to normal jump off of a boost pad as well). The game was super well done. The wall mechanic is cool as hell, the little addition that you can walljump off of them adds a whole new dimension to the gameplay. This game is great. Fantastic job!! |
| Oct 18 20:22:34 | 47m 01s | Fishpile | ♥ 3 | Nice, calming, and cute atmosphere! The gameplay is really chill, trying to fit the fish on your boat is a fun mini-game, and the special fish provide a fun challenge to try to collect! I thought the mermaid shop was really cute, with the ships in bottles, ah it's great. This game definitely scratches the tranquil relaxing game niche and it does it great. Nice job! |
| Oct 19 16:08:11 | 19h 45m | Feng Shui Struggles | ♥ 2 | I love this game! It's such janky fun, the music is boppin, the art is really clean and calming, and the whole atmosphere is perfect. I think that you executed this game perfectly. Short, sweet, and satisfying. I laughed out loud at the solution to the last level :) High scores from me all around. Fantastic job! |
| Oct 19 16:11:15 | 3m 04s | NarrowLabs Rumble | ♥ 2 | I like the unique ideas presented here, the three different health bars are fun to manage, and I like how you can see the types of damage a bot will do based on the colors on their chest. I found the bullets a little hard to see because of how small they were, and my slow projectile speed made me miss a lot of shots. I also found it hard to quickly switch between what things I'm healing while in combat. I think it would be interesting if instead of having the healing reduce the power of bullets all-around, it only reduced the power of the bullets against the colors that you're healing. So if you're healing blue, you do a lot less damage to enemies shooting blue at you. Then you'd have a more active prioritization challenge as opposed to just turning everything off in combat. Either way though, the ideas presented here are strong and it would be really cool to see this game expanded upon. Nice job! |
| Oct 19 16:44:29 | 33m 14s | The Giant's Globe | ♥ 4 | This is a fantastic little puzzle platformer! I had a lot of fun playing, the art is cool, the music is soooooo good, and the design of the puzzles is really well done. I enjoyed having to find your abilities each level, it made them all feel really unique and interesting. Great job!! |
| Oct 19 17:33:09 | 48m 40s | Jambulance | ♥ 2 | Great game! I had a lot of fun playing this over and over to get on the leaderboard. I think the course might be a bit too long given the random nature of the gameplay, it's annoying when you're almost a minute in and then you get pelted by a random car and lose everything. But I had a ton of fun, it was great! Awesome job. |
| Oct 19 17:57:44 | 24m 35s | Trainwreck | ♥ 2 | Super fun game! I love how hard it gets to pack everything fully in if you're not careful at the beginning. The different shapes create more challenges as time goes on, as well. Very nicely done! |
| Oct 19 17:59:52 | 2m 08s | Space Ltd. O.D.A. planet defender | ♥ 1 | I love this game! The core mechanic is super cool, I gasped a little when I realized what I was supposed to do. The bullet patterns and the effects they cause when you block them were a lot of fun to figure out and counteract. The intro sequences with the little descriptions for each enemy were super cute as well. I really like this game, I think it could go far. Fantastic job! |
