| May 2 19:07:39 | Illusions of Grandeur | ♥ 1 | Extremely clever and well designed logic/puzzling game! A very solid entry all-around. The character feels nice to control and the game works very well for having such a strange illusory logic- I never got stuck in-between tile, found myself glitched, etc. The puzzles were well designed and none of them outstayed their welcome. Great work, would love to play an extended or "super" version. | |
| May 2 19:24:06 | 16m 27s | Sinful Scoops | ♥ 2 | Very cool entry! I had some trouble having the signal recognized, but it's very well done for being made for a jam entry. The audio and visuals tie it all together, and the general vibe and execution is very good. Nice work! |
| May 3 17:12:57 | 21h 48m | I💰I💎I⚔️I | ♥ 1 | Very difficult to wrap my mind around it, but I can get what you're going for! There's some nice resource management and puzzling going on, and I like the overall idea. I think I ran into a few visual glitches (like extra cards appearing when restarting and overlapping monster cards) but that might just be me misunderstanding a mechanic. |
| May 3 17:39:08 | 26m 11s | Summoning for Dummies | ♥ 0 | Very neat little game! Scratches the same itch that those classic "combine stuff" browser games used to. I wasn't sure if poking was supposed to be a mechanic or just a bit of world building, but clicking on the creatures didn't seem to do anything. The Lord of the Pit typo was very demotivating... or maybe, "demon-tivating"? Despite this, nice work all around. Oh, and the graphics and general "flow" are quite nice! |
| May 3 17:48:15 | 9m 07s | Summoner's Clash | ♥ 1 | I wasn't really able to understand why certain effects were happening, but it was fun to throw together random spells and see what happens. As mentioned by others, more hints for the player would be good. I liked the graphics and the general feel of the game, and the little visual and mechanical effects for all the spells are very cool. |
| May 3 18:17:46 | 29m 31s | Corrupt Cult: Underground | ♥ 0 | Excellent entry!! It reminds me of one of my all time favorite LD entries, Mystic Push. Amazing graphics, snappy controls, great design... I absolutely love the overall feel, and the run -> box slide mechanic is super fun. It feels like you're getting away with something when you pull it off! I did find the puzzle with the column of cultists a little unforgiving because of how tight the timing is, but beyond that every puzzle felt very fair and fun to get through. Awesome work... but I unfortunately couldn't beat level 8 because all of the keys/cultists were offset vertically so I could not get some of the keys. :( key.png Let me know if there's a way to get past it! :D |
| May 3 18:25:59 | 8m 13s | Stop the Summoning | ♥ 1 | Nice bite-sized logic game! Even though everything here is very simple and elemental, you were able to make some fun puzzles. I liked how enemies were needed to break level elements, which isn't something you always see with games like this. Good work! |
| May 3 18:37:40 | 11m 41s | War of the Necrocaster | ♥ 1 | Very good and surprisingly mechanically deep entry! Music and graphics were great, and the amount of interconnected features and things going on is very impressive. I think there's a bug where mana is transferred between rounds, so I was able to get through it pretty easy... unless upgrades are always meant to transfer? The general balance and flow could use some work, but overall a great effort. Nice job! |
| May 3 18:58:17 | 20m 37s | The Great Chicken Sacrifice | ♥ 1 | Poor chickens... maybe the Thing is taking them to a better place. :) (Not likely...) Anyway, very solid entry! The exponential (eggs-ponential?) chicken-and-egg situation is a really fun twist on a physics-clicker like this, and it's a very fun thing to just set up and watch go. The little touches like the lighting effects and score pulsing do a lot to make things feel impactful, too. Good job! |
| May 3 19:52:34 | 54m 17s | Conjurers Catacomb | ♥ 2 | Wonderful entry! It feels very cozy, and the puzzles are great brain teasers. The game is very well put together, and besides the "phasing box exploit", it is impressive how solid it feels. And, huge props for the tutorial and hints! :) Great work!! (oh, and the animal companion is very cute! and, the voxel graphics and animations are excellent, too.) (PS: Oh, and I forgot to mention too, that the innovations here are very clever, and the ways they are represented in the world feel great and in-line with the theme of the game.) |
| May 3 20:31:20 | 38m 46s | Bowl n' Bawls | ♥ 1 | Delightful little entry. It is very fun to go around the bowling alley and defeat the pins while getting more and more bawls, and the payoff for the ending is very good. This little game knows what it's about, and doesn't waste any time getting to the "good stuff". Great work! (PS: Oh- and the graphics and sound fit perfectly, too! Little details make it all come together...) |
