Oct 3 12:06:24 Full Circle ♥ 1 Music's an absolute jam, controls feel tight and and game feels crunchy and responsive. I wasn't very good at it but kept retrying to chase better times. I couldn't stop just kept going back. On that note my only feedback I have is I would have liked to be able to restart using my keyboard rather than having to click with my mouse. I'm pretty lazy and kept wanting to get back into it asap.
Oct 3 12:14:28 8m 04s Spaced out ♥ 1 I love one button games - just seeing how much can go on with limited input. This was so cool. Music was great couldn't stop boppin' along. Liked how fluid everything felt - especially when holding space that slow zoom in and the way everything slows down and the arrow flashes. It was great. Wasn't very good at it but kept going back for more tries.
Oct 3 12:58:07 43m 39s Escape the maze ♥ 1 Managed to beat it after a few times. Music set a cool mood, it looked great, and played very fluid - it was fun to control. Because it took me a few tries to beat I wish there was a "retry" or "restart" button when I died. Also would have liked if the doors opened away from me (got stuck on 'em a few times) and there was a bit more feedback when enemies hit into me. All that said it never really felt too difficult or unfair. I had fun and was really happy replaying it until I figured out how to escape :)
Oct 4 09:28:39 20h 30m S.P.A.C.E. Ltd. ♥ 1 Really cool game - played it to the end. Great graphics / lighting and really chill music I was happy grooving to the entire time. Sound effects were great especially charging up a shot - the animation for this was great too felt like there was tons of weight. Really loved the screaming it was hilarious every time.
Oct 4 09:55:40 27m 01s Tiny Tower ♥ 2 Really cool game - played through to the end.. at least I thought I had. I also thought it was pretty easy. Then the second half slapped me around a bunch - it was a great surprise. Managed to get through it. Great music, appropriate sound effects and cool graphics. Controls felt pretty tight. Whole thing felt like the best version of a NES game.
Oct 4 10:28:40 33m 00s CaveBots ♥ 1 Took me a while / a few tries to figure out how to start and what was going on - but once I did it was a ton of fun and also somehow really relaxing and kind of stressful at the same time. Music's really chill and the graphics look great. I wasn't very good but retried a bunch of times whenever I'd try stop I decided to "play one more round" and kept going. Feels really unique.. like a mix of dungeon keeper and old school RTS while very much being it's own thing. Great game. Boggles my mind to think you made it in the competition. Great work :D
Oct 4 10:59:09 30m 29s Trapped Goblin ♥ 1 The music was incredibly catchy, the art was excellent and the difficulty ramped up perfectly. The enemies and the general style / theme were really cool. There were a bunch of times I said "what?!" out loud - it was great. Had a few bad runs where it seemed like no power ups were dropping -but I stuck with it and managed to beat the game. Great work :D
Oct 4 11:10:40 11m 31s Shelf Shift ♥ 1 Looks really nice and the music's really chill. Whole game feels really chill. Incredibly relaxing just stacking books. I feel like the time limit should have added pressure but it didn't I just had fun seeing how I could fit the books in.
Oct 4 11:27:56 17m 16s The Signal ♥ 1 Phenomenal graphics, cool puzzles, and a great job voice-acting. Felt incredibly polished. It was well worth getting stuck on the last level for so long just to experience that end screen / area.
Oct 4 11:53:24 25m 28s DARQY ♥ 1 Cool game - made it to the end after a bunch of fumbling around :D Graphics felt like an early pokemon game but smoother, sound effects were great and the idea was really cool. Really really dug the locational sound - it was cool playing with heaphones. Kind of wish there was non-grid-based movement so I could ping around a bit quicker 'cause I'm impatient.
Oct 5 10:10:10 22h 16m Raft Blaster! ♥ 3 Awesome graphics and really chill music made this seem like it'd be a fun little puzzle game but it got really intense. Every time I retried I though I was going ok then after a few minutes I was completely overwhelmed - but it always felt like it was my fault for managing poorly. Good work :)
Oct 5 10:46:21 36m 11s Midnight Racers ♥ 0 Looked amazing - had a really cool vibe. Really liked the effects as the car sped up - the camera moving down, the.. speed lines(?) and the way the car shook. Controlling it felt a little bit.. loose or mushy. Maybe that's what happens when cars go that fast. Love that I could pit-maneuver my opponent.
Oct 5 11:00:05 13m 44s Galaxy in a Box ♥ 2 Really cool - felt perfect to control - tight but kind of mushy while responding exactly enough to avoid asteroids. When I did hit them I felt like it was my fault. Difficulty ramped up really well. Dug the take on the theme - **really** dug the "The spaceship would have just taken damage!" warning message. Missed sound effects / music but had lots of fun.
Oct 5 11:19:55 19m 50s The Spellswapper of the Dark Forest ♥ 1 Really cool graphics, appropriately crispy sound effects and a cool feel. Highlight was the music it was exceptional. Difficulty ramped up well. Never got bored / had fun the whole time. Felt kind of tense towards the end. Furthest I got was wave 11 :)
Oct 10 12:47:55 121h 28m Hardcore Overload ♥ 1 Had a lot of fun playing this - it was really easy to sit there going "on more game" over and over. Great graphics. Cool take on the theme. The car felt good to control - pretty weighty. Really liked the laser - wish I could fire it more often. Only thing I missed was sound. Also one other punter mentioned not being able to run it on linux - I ran it via wine without any issues.
Oct 10 12:59:49 11m 54s The One ♥ 1 Loved the aspect ratio, amazing art style and incredibly fluid animations. It feels great to move around and attack - and in my humble opinion a game feeling good to control / play's incredibly important. I wasn't very good but kept going back for more :D I'm pretty lazy though and wish I could have restarted without having to reach for my mouse. Liked the arcade-y music and the sound effects. On that note would have liked a sound effect when enemies land a hit.
Oct 10 13:15:00 15m 11s Claustromowbic ♥ 1 I've mowed a lot of lawns and this felt bang on. Except maybe the boost.. but that's fine the boost was awesome. Looks great. Mower felt good to control (well, a bit wonky.. just like a real mower), the boost felt appropriately insane. Cutting the grass was satisfying. And the mower sound was appropriately monotonous. On that note some music would have been great. Also would have liked it if the mower slid along the walls a bit more easily. Like I said I've mowed a lot of lawns and they like to slide around when you run into stuff :)
Oct 11 10:13:57 20h 58m Tetranome ♥ 2 I love tetris, and by extension I loved this. It was similar enough to make it easy to get into, but different enough to have a nice learning curve. Took me a while to get used to rotating and dropping the blocks as well as timing, but once I did moving stuff around and placing 'em was really snappy. Moved along pretty quick. It was kind of stressful. I liked it. Music and sound effects were appropriately retro. Really chill slid into the background nicely.
Oct 11 10:24:35 10m 38s Shop 'n Block ♥ 1 Liked the graphics and really liked the chill vibes - which the sound contributed to a lot. Also the meandering NPC's they were great. Sound was kind of quiet - had to really crank my volume way up. When I did the music was excellent. NPC's stopped moving a few times, also I saw some walk through the middle wall. I think they were glitches but it was pretty cool. Would have liked to be able to see what items the NPC's wanted / their intentions. Great work really relaxing :D
Oct 11 10:33:55 9m 20s Just Another Sokoban ♥ 1 Chill music amazing sound effects. Felt really nice to control. Puzzles were interesting enough and fun. Good difficulty ramping. Great work :)
Oct 11 10:46:39 12m 44s Limited Parking ♥ 1 On the one hand, the graphics and smooth controls and overall idea were all great. I even dug the "you hit something" blooping as it kept going off. On the other hand you made me parallel park several times. Missed music. The whole game felt like trying to get a park at my kids day care. Great job :)
Oct 11 11:03:00 16m 21s I Hate This Recoil ♥ 1 Got rescued :) Cool graphics, crunchy sound effects, and great idea. I liked how each game mode built up the tension. By the last one I was so stressed I kept making mistakes, and every time it kicked me out to the menu. Don't know why I was so tense made it out with tons of time. Would have loved some music.
Oct 11 11:24:27 21m 27s Space: 10000km ♥ 1 Everything about this was my jam. Loved the cut scenes (especially the opening), the bright graphics, the droning audio, how open everything felt. Enjoyed playing around until I figured it out. The solution made sense, but I needed to poke around a bunch to get there. Great game :D
Oct 11 11:43:56 19m 29s Turtle Gatling ♥ 1 Great graphics and excellent idea. Gun's really satisfying to fire. Early on wished there was more enemy variety.. but then when the screen filled up it all clicked together and it was great :D Would have loved music.
Oct 12 10:43:19 22h 59m Liminal Space ♥ 1 Looks really nice, and feels good to control. Awesome use of space and physics - two things I love in games. Would have liked sound, also maybe some way to tell where I'd been before.. like landmarks / colours.
Oct 12 10:50:25 7m 06s Rush Hour ♥ 1 What a banger game. A great idea realised really well with cool graphics and amazing music. Had a lot of fun - especially pushing NPC's into pits. Liked the level variation. Would have liked some sound effects - especially for pushing people and people falling into pits.
Oct 12 11:02:34 12m 09s Attack of the Robot Crabs ♥ 1 Great relentless wave shooter. Graphics and music were great. Shotgun felt great to fire I think due to the chunky sound effects and the fact it melted the crabs. Liked how tense it got when the arena shrunk, then the relief when getting a power up and it opened back up again.
Oct 12 11:19:15 16m 41s Ruins Runner ♥ 0 Love the old school vibes - mostly from the crunchy sound effects and cool graphics. Smooth to control but also pretty difficult. Would have liked music. Loved that the character just kept running on game over.
Oct 18 09:54:19 142h 35m Ultimate Wall Dropper ♥ 0 Great graphics - loved the characters and the background. Cool animations. Also the music's amazing. Controls feel pretty responsive - but wish there was more feedback when I hit the opponent. Took a while for it to click - but I had a great time when it did. Really cool game :)
Oct 18 10:05:48 11m 29s Too Much Car ♥ 1 This game was great. Loved the graphics, and the controls, and the way the controls tied into the sound. The sound + control combo. was so good I didn't miss music (which I normally do). Really loved the way the car controlled at speed. Liked the levels and the progression. Wish there was a timer so I could see how long I spent mucking around.
Oct 18 10:11:42 5m 54s Penguin Waddle ♥ 1 Playing this on stream, and someone playing games with me asked for "a cute game." I felt like this hit the spec. exactly until a penguin got eaten then I felt bad. It was pretty horrific. Liked the music, enjoyed running around chasing the tiny penguins. Felt responsive, but a bit.. random - like it was mostly bad luck when they got eaten. It mostly happened when a penguin and orca spawned right next to each other other side of the map. I would have said my favorite part was the escape whale - but I really loved the ending screens.
Oct 18 10:27:57 16m 15s Hope Falters ♥ 1 So polished and everything fits together do well. Great game - great graphics, incredibly polished music (I loved how it changed when hope was broken). Really cool levels that ramped up in difficulty perfectly. Real vibe even if it's way too.. mushy and optimistic for my tastes.
Oct 18 10:35:37 7m 40s HOBO BOX: Battle Arena ♥ 0 Art style was cool. Loved the music absolute banger. Unfortunately it stopped after a while. Also loved the different character art. Took me a while to get used to the controls but appreciated them once I did. Couldn't get a win - kind of wish there was more weight to the hits. Still played a bunch of rounds and had fun :)
Oct 18 10:45:55 10m 18s One does not make jam without breaking pots ♥ 1 Cool game. Appreciated the allure of a quicker speed worth more points as well as the ability to pause. Liked the puzzle like quality - pretty cool idea well realised. Missed music - could have added to the already chill but kind of tense vibe.
Oct 18 11:12:46 26m 51s Deckit ♥ 2 Once I figured out how it was being scored went from coming last to coming first pretty quickly. Like the strategy but also the feeling of the physics for each car. Cool graphics, cool idea and cool sound effects. Feel like it needed silly music and a win screen - but had a ton of fun.
