| Oct 8 04:35:46 | Save Nebuville | ♥ 3 | I saved Nebuville! The upgrades kept it interesting, and the end was surprising, tense, and fun! I think it works great, and the different sounds plus the sky effects make it a pleasant experience. Great entry! | |
| Oct 9 00:08:14 | 19h 32m | Koi | ♥ 3 | This game rules! I can think of a lot of things I want added, which is a really good sign :). Top of my list would be a peaceful mode because those green fish are so mean and it makes me sad when they eat my koi. The changing color scheme is a great addition to make replays feel fresh. Feels great, the music is perfect, and I even love the logo! Great entry. Tab did not go to full-screen for me. I'm on Windows 11 with an ultrawide monitor. Screenshot 2024-10-08 170418.png |
| Oct 9 00:19:26 | 11m 12s | Awakened from Stardust | ♥ 2 | Wow, this game really brings the energy! It would be great to have a minute to come to grips with the controls before being thrown into a battle, but I get what you're going for and you got a crazy amount of stuff done! I died on the third battle. The character design for that enemy is simply a masterpiece ✨ Some notes: - The settings didn't seem to change anything. I couldn't get out of fullscreen or change the resolution. - The health bars all showed some life left when my dudes were dead, possibly from being on an ultrawide monitor. Screenshot 2024-10-08 171523.png Great entry! It's manic and silly and I dig it. |
| Oct 9 03:56:22 | 3h 36m | Buzzfight | ♥ 1 | Totally accurate bee simulator! I'm surprised it works as well as it does 👍🏻, they all fly around in a believable way, I don't know how you did it. A cool experiment and it was kinda fun to figure out. |
| Oct 9 04:17:19 | 20m 57s | Apparatus | ♥ 3 | I win! Pretty sweet game. I don't understand what is meant by "consumes XY mana". Nice job, very impressive for a team of two :) |
| Oct 9 04:39:27 | 22m 08s | Particle Wars | ♥ 2 | Nice! A great first game. The upgrades were creative and fun to unlock. |
| Oct 11 04:05:13 | 47h 25m | Wally's Woods | ♥ 0 | Fun, and a cool aesthetic for a mini horror game :) It's great that you can't see the pet's vitals when you are hunting. Good ramp up of needs so that the game has a reasonable length and doesn't go on forever. Well executed! |
| Oct 11 04:13:10 | 7m 57s | Flea Circus | ♥ 1 | This game is so clever! It's pretty funny in that I come up with a plan in my head and then the show is just pure chaos. Even my past performances are just getting ruined all over the place. I love it! Very original and a perfect execution of the theme. |
| Oct 11 04:30:11 | 17m 01s | TINY PACK | ♥ 1 | Excellent! It's slightly wonky on ultrawide but I won't fault you for that. Top marks! |
| Oct 12 04:24:00 | 23h 53m | The Mims | ♥ 2 | Very cute! Boy, I guess I screwed some stuff up and there's no going back :( The first thing I did was put a minotaur in the first pen, but that only breaks even so I don't really get the point of that creature. I also couldn't tell why my cordon bleu was sad. |
| Oct 12 18:49:41 | 14h 25m | Creature Packets | ♥ 1 | Very cool! Nailed the mood. This could certainly be the bones for a full release if you could build some more puzzle and mystery elements into it. Great job! |
| Oct 19 04:33:27 | 153h 43m | MonkePok | ♥ 4 | Very cool! I love the art and the cool names of the guys. For me, the main loop of fusing was difficult because of comparing 6 numbers to 12 other numbers. It would be nice to have the graphics be more analog, like seeing the two parents and the child lined up with a bar representing each stat. I beat the first seven battles pretty early on but wasn't able to beat the eighth one. Great entry! Definitely a great vibe. |
| Oct 19 04:46:10 | 12m 43s | Gob | ♥ 1 | Cute! I like the different sound effects for the different food. I think that one of the great things about Katamari is the feeling of catharsis you get from finally being able to eat some things that were annoying or restricting you earlier on, like a fence reining you in or enemies/obstacles pestering you. I didn't get a lot of that in this game, other than the trees at the end. I think there's a good opportunity to add some of that in the level design to make the player feel like they are progressing and accomplishing things. Nice entry :) |
| Oct 19 16:00:26 | 11h 14m | Tiny Ducks | ♥ 1 | Very cool, I enjoyed it! I really wanted my ducks to heal between battles, at least a little bit. Also, I feel like the cards in my hands sometimes rearranged themselves and I would find myself accidentally playing the wrong card? Other than that, a very nice spire-like :) |
| Oct 19 22:17:46 | 6h 17m | Let's eat Grandma. | ♥ 1 | Great entry! Nice and simple. Entertaining, surprising, funny, and it looks great! Congrats :) |
| Oct 20 16:28:09 | 18h 10m | Swarm World War | ♥ 1 | This is good! I was defeated on round 30. I think having the logistics guys running around building and repairing everything really kicks things up a notch. To tweak the game I would suggest making things cheaper and less effective so the player has more to do and is not waiting around so much. Also the tank exploding sound effect is too loud. Other than that, it's a pretty solid foundation. I like being able to hold shift and quickly deploy lots of sandbags. |
| Oct 23 02:25:34 | 57h 57m | Vox Regis | ♥ 1 | Excellent! The graphics are great, the gameplay is simple yet engaging, and the Latin is 👌🏻 |
| Oct 23 02:39:03 | 13m 29s | My Keyboard is Full of Ants! | ♥ 1 | 40150 and a cup of coffee! Pretty excellent! I didn't really understand how points were being calculated but I had a fun time. Or, as I said to my boss, "spooky spooky spooky spooky". |
| Oct 25 03:24:46 | 48h 45m | Titan Shadow | ♥ 2 | Ooh heck yeah, that was cool! I was hoping I'd get to stab the big eye in the middle once all the other spots were taken care of. Nice job, it all works pretty well :) |
| Oct 25 03:42:03 | 17m 17s | Summony Flute | ♥ 1 | Fun idea! I struggled a little bit. At first I didn't understand how the gems work when summoning. Then I had a hard time getting the game to recognize my squares. But I love the flute sounds and bamboo art and I liked parading around with my animals :) |
| Oct 25 03:57:47 | 15m 44s | Those Who Die As Cattle | ♥ 0 | Fantastic! It took me a few minutes to figure out that artillery was essentially limitless. And I was caught off guard when the German charge got to my trench very suddenly. I think the mood and theme are spot-on. An excellent jam game. Well done! |
| Oct 26 17:15:37 | 37h 17m | gottaBEEthere | ♥ 1 | I'm bummed that I wasn't able to play this during the rating period because it is so good! I love the concept and the mood. I think it might be nice if the flowers had shadows so you could more easily place them in 3D space. I also really wish this silly bee would stop rotating! But awesome job!! |
