| Oct 3 09:15:09 | Pack Your Ship | ♥ 1 | Do you know what? I really enjoyed that. Yes the gameplay loop is a little repetitive, but I enjoyed having to move my turrets around to maximize the space for cargo. A couple of bugs/issues. Sometimes I wasn't given enough fuel to make the first run. I can understand being short changed on subsequent runs as I _could_ bring spares, but the first run should have at least enough to make it. Also sometimes the turrets wouldn't fire at the enemy ships even though they had enough ammo nearby. I'd have to move there positions before they'd start shooting again. I had lots of fun playing this. Good stuff ๐ฑ | |
| Oct 3 09:32:57 | 17m 48s | Highly Specialized Troops | ♥ 0 | Very interesting concept and lots of fun to play. One issue I had was the soldiers not landing on a square so became unable to move/stack. Art and sound fitted perfectly. Very well done. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 10:09:48 | 36m 51s | Before I Forget | ♥ 1 | That's a 5* game right there. Brilliant! Not sure whether I got the good ending or not. It said !>The bad ending? but I found !>Rosa which seemed like a good ending to me?! Either way this was an amazing experience. I wasn't sure about the piece laying mechanic when it first popped up, but it worked really well with the narrative. I did have one bug when I was trying to place pieces where they could clearly fit, but it wouldn't accept them. Using a singl block I was able to determine that two squares were showing as empty but were in fact blocked. Loved the art and sound, and the writing is well done. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 10:54:17 | 44m 29s | Animal Teleporting | ♥ 3 | This is a really solid entry. Everything was done well and fitted together nicely. The puzzles weren't too hard, which is what you want from a jam game, and the range of different animal properties was plentiful, but not overwhelming. I managed to complete all the levels. Didn't come across any bugs or issues, but I would have liked to be able to TAB through the animals instead of clicking them. But that's only a minor gripe as I had a blast. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 12:29:27 | 1h 35m | Core Values | ♥ 1 | I like the idea. It does look unfinished in places, but that can be forgiven as it's a jam game. I was bashing all the other robots until I got to a point where my robot stopped dealing damage altogether. It was impossible to progress after that. Nice fun game. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 12:44:11 | 14m 44s | AnathemA | ♥ 0 | Window pops up, it plays an initial sound, then crashes. Windows 11, RTX 3070. Couldn't play it so didn't do ratings. Good luck ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 13:24:26 | 40m 15s | InsideMe | ♥ 1 | Very nice game. An unusual concept. It plays well enough. Alas though I have to admit that I couldn't complete the last level. It may have had something to do with me using a trackpad. The art is nice, and those little stag-things were really cute. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 13:34:48 | 10m 22s | Refugees of Oblivion | ♥ 1 | Interesting game. Not sure I've ever played anything like it. It was strangly atmospheric considering the simple graphics. I did find that when the food balance tipped against the player it went too quickly and there was never any time to correct it. That said I could see this being expanded into a mobile clicker game easily enough. I had fun. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 13:48:40 | 13m 52s | STELLAR LIMITS | ♥ 4 | I liked it. Ship controls are easy enough, loading up cargo was simple, and the graphics are cute. My ship got stuck at one point and wouldn't move. It freed up after a bit, but I'm using it as an excuse as to why I'm not top of the leaderboard. I had fun. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 3 14:40:57 | 52m 17s | The Sacrifice of Dimitree | ♥ 2 | So this game was both humorous and atmospheric which is a combination that is hard to pull off. The graphics and sound are great, with little Dimitree being the star of the show. I did have one issue with the controls. I was unable to turn 360 degrees. Movement was limited to about 300 degrees. I was still able to complete the game so it didn't hurt my experience. I had a great time playing this. Good stuff. ๐ฑ |
| Oct 4 12:32:41 | 21h 51m | Down Below | ♥ 1 | Interesting game. I do love these old style dungeon crawlers. I clicked some statues, opened a few doors, and fell down a few traps, but alas I never found my way out of the dungeon. The dungeon changed slightly on different runs. Not sure if it was intentional, but thought I'd mention it. Good stuff. ๐ฑ |
| Oct 4 12:52:46 | 20m 05s | Space Bar โ Porter q(โงโฝโฆq) | ♥ 3 | Very well done. The dialogue had me chuckling a couple of times. Audio and graphics are good. Good stuff. ๐ฑ |
| Oct 4 13:18:25 | 25m 39s | Packed to the Gills | ♥ 3 | You've got yourselves a lovely little game here. I had a blast playing. Loved everything about it. Not a bad thing to say. This is exactly what a jam game should be. Great work. ๐ฑ |
| Oct 13 10:08:15 | 212h 49m | Tracked | ♥ 1 | This looks great. I like the cohesive style of all the graphics. The subdued rust color of everything really adds to the feel. Audio was great too. Everything sounds just as it should. A little bit more variation in each carriage would have been nice, but it doesn't affect the game much. The gameplay is simple enough, which is what you want in a jam game. I don't like time limits in games, but I think one would have worked well here. I guess that wouldn't gel with the ending gag though. All in all a great entry. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 13 10:19:51 | 11m 36s | Verliies | ♥ 1 | I liked it. It's tough, it's brutal, but it never seemed unfair, save for a few cheeky drop blocks. Graphics all work well. sound fits in with everything else perfectly. The platforming controls could have been a bit more responsive and smooth, but it's a jam game so it gets a pass on that. I thought the concept worked well with the theme and it was a bit different with all the moving walls. Solid entry. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 13 10:39:06 | 19m 15s | BLOCKIES | ♥ 2 | This is a good solid game. I suspect it does everything you set out to achieve. I like the graphics, simple but effective, and they fit the Tetris aesthetic perfectly. Personally I'd have liked full keyboard controls, moving pieces and moving the camera bound to keys. I did have one issue with not being able to rotate the camera, not sure why. Other than that, everything was great. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 13 11:02:37 | 23m 31s | Comfort | ♥ 0 | Loved this. It's great. Wonderful concept and a great use of the theme. The sound design is perfect; the instant feeling of peril when you leave your comfort zone is spot on. I didn't have any issues with the game at all. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 17 15:20:32 | 100h 17m | The Bullet Box | ♥ 1 | At first I didn't realize my own bullets were hitting me, but once I got that I was cooking. The only issue gameplay wise is not having any clue that a bullet is about to hit you in the back. Other than that it works great. Audio is spot on, so 5* for that. Controls were great. All round a fine entry. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 17 15:36:16 | 15m 44s | how you use it | ♥ 0 | You know what? I liked this a lot. Great use of the theme. I loved the little story before hand. Gameplay works splendidly. Can't really fault anything about it. Played until I won. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 17 15:51:22 | 15m 06s | Out of Side | ♥ 1 | I like this a lot. At first I thought I wasn't as you have so much control over the drone, but they work really well with the level design. Graphics are great and convey a lot with so few pixels. Audio is simple but effective. My only gripe is that as it's a jam game more checkpoints would have been nice. Other than that it's a pleasantly surprising little entry. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
| Oct 17 15:56:59 | 5m 37s | LD#54 - Meteor Shower - C64 | ♥ 0 | As everyone else has said the graphics get a 5*. Audio was good. I wasn't a big fan of the gameplay, but it works as a game and was fun enough for a jam game. You get extra Overall marks for making a C64 game. I enjoyed it. Good stuff ๐ฑ |
