| Oct 2 23:20:16 | Greatest Sandwich | ♥ 2 | Perfect cooking game and nice UI :) I would make collision easier though, if you miss the plate it just falls down and you have to start over. | |
| Oct 3 08:58:06 | 9h 37m | Spidy | ♥ 0 | Junkie spider lol. This type of game makes me nostalgic about games my friends and I made 10 years ago. Cool game :) |
| Oct 3 09:16:14 | 18m 08s | SpaceTime | ♥ 1 | 19:025 score. I love platformers, I think controls could use more responsiveness, because it felt like I could do better, but jump sometimes didn't work if I tried to do it as soon as I landed on the platform. P.S. I know they're called orbs, but I called them pearls :) |
| Oct 3 10:18:49 | 1h 02m | Bathtub Buccaneers | ♥ 1 | Me taking a bath be like: Loved aesthetics and I am a sucker for naval combat! |
| Oct 3 10:31:29 | 12m 40s | Installing Engine | ♥ 1 | "pledge my first born child to your company" sounds about right xD Nice game and legit OS simulator. Installation steps may have triggered my PTSD :) |
| Oct 3 15:56:14 | 5h 24m | STELLAR LIMITS | ♥ 4 | Sweet little game. Pleasant space ambient 🚀 There was once a problem taking off the planet, I got stuck with my ship and inventory grids wouldn't close. Not sure how to reproduce. It's even surprising to see a game in Unreal here, kinda overkill of an engine in this case, but hey, whatever gets the job done. 😎 P.S. Like all your names under the title. It sounded in my head like one cool exotic name, maybe one pronounced with Spanish-esque accent :) |
| Oct 3 23:58:38 | 8h 02m | Face the Dice | ♥ 1 | I thought It wasn't my type, but boi was I wrong! Very addictive once you understand the rules. Well done! I second request for online mode :) |
| Oct 4 00:16:52 | 18m 14s | NanoSpace | ♥ 1 | I love the idea. Something I didn't see much of. Art is really nice, but a bit too much bloom. Barely, but I was able to score 21 :) I would just spawn projectiles on button click or remove the delay to start firing. Nanoworms in the middle of intense firing can be very difficult to distinguish. They also sometimes spawn near the end of the tube so you can't kill them. |
| Oct 4 00:50:50 | 33m 58s | Furniture Frontier | ♥ 1 | Neat (or is it? 🤣) retro cowboy game aesthetics which I like a lot and well played on the theme! Had to connect gamepad 'cause keyboard controls are too tough for me. At first I got confused by furniture that it isn't about it standing on the red area, but about image overlapping it 'cause of tilemap which is even more fitting considering the selected style. Great job!) |
| Oct 4 19:17:44 | 18h 26m | Submarine Escape | ♥ 4 | I would make screen scroll more apparent, because currently it scrolls only when mouse is off screen. Didn't expect Point & Click here so that was a pleasant surprise. Well done!) |
| Oct 4 20:55:18 | 1h 37m | Shot in the Dark | ♥ 3 | Minimalistic idea perfectly executed. I scored 2800 once I figured out how to play. Love it! |
| Oct 5 10:38:29 | 13h 43m | Work Until You're Undead | ♥ 1 | It froze the first time I tried to load it, but worked on second attempt. Sweet little game and I like what you did with the atmosphere. It felt like I was stuck in a mall store or something. Escaped in 1:20 Well done!) |
| Oct 6 14:02:05 | 27h 23m | Work Space | ♥ 2 | Loved it! I like how you played with the theme and put aesthetic-first decisions in your game-design which I adore. Timing is a bit hard at the start, but once you get used to game mechanics it's very fun to play. For bug reports. For some reason phone didn't always respond to taps. |
| Oct 6 14:24:18 | 22m 13s | Forest Survivors | ♥ 1 | Sweet little game. Bear is such a cutie! 🐻 Too easy for me though, I died on 30k because I just wanted to see what happens when you lose. I would add some simple animation for the character there. Thorn-shrubs should definitely have some way of damaging you, especially considering there's two types of them. Difficulty scaling could be more steep. It gets repetitive once you understand that you only have to look out for falling things that target your last location so adding more dangerous obstacles and improving scaling is the key. Loved the temporary upgrade into lawnmower :) Well done! |
| Oct 6 15:07:18 | 43m 00s | Unlimited Space Shawarma | ♥ 2 | Probably the best game I played here so far! Very immersive! Even has somewhat of dream-like feel to it. I got everything, thought it was just endless survivor after that, but finally a member of the rescue team saved me 🚀 Great job! |
| Oct 12 17:41:56 | 146h 34m | Candy Catcher | ♥ 2 | Love the idea and neat stylish art :) How painful it was when finger kept getting stuck at the exit 😂 |
| Oct 12 17:52:07 | 10m 11s | Tables 95 | ♥ 0 | A fellow vintage PC game. Nice little game :) Homework was more depressing than Unity and so I got rid of it 😎 |
| Oct 17 18:00:17 | 120h 08m | Crime Critters (Rob the British Museum) | ♥ 1 | Amazing artstyle and nice play with the theme. It would seem I am too clumsy for this line of work, I would probably break the whole thing instead 😆 And my sorry partner in crime was absolutely unable to handle IJKL controls 🤣 I'm rating by post-jam version though. I'm not sure how it works here nor care, I think it's fair to judge by game's current state rather than it's original release state as I rather judge by design as intended, not design as managed due to time constraints. It's not a contest 🤔 Anyways, I digress :) Well done! And do I hope you're planning to evolve this idea, I definitely see myself playing it on consoles with plus 2 partners! ;) |
| Oct 17 18:29:42 | 29m 25s | SINISTER ELEVATOR | ♥ 1 | Loved the creepy atmosphere. I wish spiders crawled from different angles as right now you can pretty much repeatedly shoot to the left and right side to clear every floor. Made it to the 25th Floor :) |
| Oct 17 19:00:58 | 31m 16s | Pack Your Ship | ♥ 1 | Really liked the game. After a first few quick deaths, I quickly realized what's what and felt comfortable playing it. Unfortunately I couldn't get further than 16. I had fully loaded guns, but enemies approached from inconvenient angle and destroyed my right engine after which my ship flew painfully slow and couldn't make it to the station. I wish there was a way to buff rotation speed of the turrets. They're too slow)) Screenshot from my last voyage. PackYouShip_(1)_OB2ZoNx0w6.png |
| Oct 17 19:47:20 | 46m 22s | Escape The Phantom Seascape! | ♥ 1 | Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure (HOPA) in a hand-drawn style, creepy scenes with nightmarish vibes! That sells it even to someone like me who's not much for the genre. I did found some mechanics to be unintuitive. Crossword puzzle for one, I assembled some random stuff just to see what happens and couldn't return it back to what it was to try again so effectively got stuck there. I think also UI/UX needs more love, icons look rough around the edges with white outline. All in all, I hope you update it and make it even better! Good luck to you ❤️ |
| Oct 17 21:35:20 | 1h 48m | Payment Comes on Friday | ♥ 1 | Amazing game with a stunning artwork and simple, but perfectly done design. I love how interactive it is. Incredibly polished! A bit sad that truck pushes you out. It would be hilarious to drive away and receive "Gave Up" game over :) Also noticed that water doesn't get refilled sometimes, maybe that's deliberate. I would suggest adding a score (In time or better even Total Cargo Weight delivered) and show it when you lose. Also I realized you may do nothing, but walk left and right, and you won't lose water, but gain it instead which is odd. So I did exactly that delivering absolutely nothing. Then I decided to deliver one truck and got stuck in a black screen (lost HP only 'cause cargo got damaged). I recorded and published as unlisted to maybe help you reproduce it somehow and figure out what's wrong. https://youtu.be/a-HQpQ2uXPA And that's another one showing slacker play style. https://youtu.be/X8bbGZyM84A Do looking forward for updates!

| Oct 18 01:34:26 | 3h 59m | Mechanizyn | ♥ 2 | Very cool game. Wish there was more levels, I was just buzzzing up for more :) I was secretly hoping someone would make a fly or mosquito type of game. Hope you add more content in the future :) Good Luck! |
| Oct 18 10:51:26 | 9h 17m | Justine Time | ♥ 1 | Beautiful cover art and overall a pretty good idea. I would definitely work more on the art within the game and maybe make "Present-Time" mask around the character round instead of rectangle. And because it's Game Maker it can't be easy to make a good platformer there, built-in physics of the engine are just not good. If you like making this genre of games I would recommend Construct 3. It's perfectly equipped for the job. Good Luck! |
| Oct 18 10:59:33 | 8m 07s | appendage bedlam | ♥ 1 | Nice game, but I couldn't finish the second labyrinth as I got stuck and none of the ruptures (black holes) allowed me to leave. Sword could use some animation when you're using it. It was unclear to me at first that I had to hold button to actually deal any good damage. Well done! Hope you update it later. |
