| Apr 16 16:38:46 | Tournament of Summoners | ♥ 1 | Nicely creepy art style :) It took me a bit to understand how the cards really worked, but I probably was just overthinking it. Made it until stage 14 during first try, before I stopped. By that time the reportet FPS went down, from an average of 1300 to 400 ;) Maybe it would be a nice feature when the cards your opponent plays would also interact with yours. Like when the hand of God might Backfire, because the opponent also played one, destroying your set of two. | |
| Apr 16 16:46:06 | 7m 20s | Squiggle Sorcery | ♥ 3 | The Card designs look very nice and I love that everything is a tentacle, but I admit that I don't understand the logic behind the battles. Whats the difference between the different tentacle types and how do I know what to chose when? |
| Apr 16 17:14:33 | 28m 27s | Luna's Ritual | ♥ 1 | The graphic design and variety of upgrades are very nice. It already feels quite polished and I enjoyed several playthroughs in a row. I was positively surprised at the variety of upgrades. My only small critique is that the enemies have trouble following and sometimes get stuck in the lower portion of the game. But that can also create a fun zone, once you got the upgrades going ;) |
| Apr 16 21:22:57 | 4h 08m | Blort's Big Adventure | ♥ 2 | A very funny art style, naming scheme and sound design. I'n not ashamed to admit that jumped onto a few eldritch impalers, just to hear the death blergh xD Managed to finishe the game even without the extra Bluuk, but in the beginning I really struggled with the "non-standard" choice of buttons for control (especially when you use a qwertZ keyboard). I also made an odd control scheme once and realized that many people had issues. Another issue I ran into was the Wakka beeing a true cat and not wanting to walk into the other direction. Had a lot of fun anyway ;) |
| Apr 16 21:45:12 | 22m 15s | Chefs from the Dead | ♥ 1 | Had some trouble starting the game as I initially didn't have Java installed. After downloading it the jar worked, but the exe still gave me the "no java" error. It's a very funny idea and I understood the concept pretty fast. My only issue with the game itself is the randomness of the chefs you get and the food you are required to make. Happened to me twice that I had to make four burgers in a row but only got the Pigs, who dislike cooking them. But keep up the work. Always nice to see poeple coding the game more or less directly in a programming language :) Ohhh... and my best score was 10! |
| Apr 17 19:57:03 | 22h 11m | Seamonner Survivor | ♥ 3 | I lover the underwater theme of the game and the art! Took me one round to understand the idea, but then I realized very quickly what the different symbols mean. I just don't fully understand the mana. I never really used it up, since I was always limited by the divers health. But Maybe I also just had a bad strategy ;) Managed to get to level 17 max, when I ran out of time. |
| Apr 17 20:52:35 | 55m 32s | Canoe Summoner: I Rose To The Top Despite Having a Garbage Skill | ♥ 1 | Took a bit too long to actually get the upgrades going, but its a very funny concept. Accitentally launched myself to space by stepping onto a spinning canoe though xD Buisness idea... maybe selling them brings more money than punching them at goblins ;) |
| Apr 18 21:01:54 | 24h 09m | Drunk Dork on Pitchfork | ♥ 4 | I love the style and general vibe and unique idea :) But I got really frustrated in the evevator section. Took me 5 minutes to beat the first one, just to see that there was a second one without checkpoint. I felt like it was odly luck based. The dork would often start oscilating on the pitchfork and either fly of or not fir through narrow sections. Worked great when it did not happen, but was inevitable for me at some point. 5-10 min after that I gave up :( |
| Apr 18 21:50:37 | 48m 43s | Claws and Conundrums | ♥ 3 | Super nice atmosphere. Somehow that slight tremble in the music and something that could have been breathing inbetween made me afraid of a jump scare after reading the book. I struggeled a bit with the page turning, but everything else was very intuitive. Story kept me reading everything. Would definitly be back for more of this! Great job :) |
| Apr 18 22:24:17 | 33m 40s | Summon the Intern | ♥ 1 | Very tough, but also very fun and funny. Burned out after day 4. Guess I was not dashing enough... unlike the style of the game ;) |
| May 2 20:15:31 | 333h 51m | Mable’s Realm | ♥ 2 | Very cute artstyle with perfectly fitting sound effects... and the music ❤️ I enjoyed how simple the gameplay was at it's core, so it was very easy to just jump in. Was wondering about a bit about some of the behaviors of the characters, but I just saw your comment on the bugs. You could have convinced me that some of these things were intended features ;) My biggest small critique would be that the game ramps up a bit fast. I often a bit too busy aligning marbles, when I really wanted to watch the battle. Guess thats the curse of a nice style. Good job :) |
| May 2 20:26:15 | 10m 44s | Wizzy Wizzy | ♥ 1 | The game has a really nice vibe. The environment reminds me a bit of a nightmare before christmas. Took me three rounds to finally win, which is the perfect difficulty. But with such a victory dance... who can be really mad at their evil twin ;) |
| May 2 20:45:29 | 19m 14s | Jury Doody | ♥ 1 | A very funny idea. The randomness of the questions even gives it some repeatability. At the same time the randomness can also make it very hard, when its purely based on taste... although I agree with most of your choices ( 🐶 ❤️ )... unfortunatly making me a great for jury duty xD Would also be fun to have more ways to annoy the attorney, like not looking at him, or beeing slow to answer questions. Although it would then be important to not tell people about it, so you can find out these options yourself ... but this might also greatly backfire, so I don't :D Nice first entry all in all. Keep up the jams ;) |
| May 2 21:00:34 | 15m 05s | Tiny Summons | ♥ 1 | I am so amazed by how far you managed to bring this with python. So many things that I was not remotly aware of as beeing possible. Unfortunetly I couldn't find an opponent, but it was a great joy and inspirations nevertheless :D |
