|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 8 03:42:25 | Ant Smasher! | ♥ 0 | A bit difficult to navigate on my laptop (kept accidently clicking lines, and how to play was not immediately obvious). Still really impressive you could build it in Desmos. | |
| Oct 8 09:16:59 | 5h 34m | B.E.E - Brave Explorer Evangeline | ♥ 2 | Nice graphics (I found it a bit hard to use the controls though - the bee kept veering when turning). |
| Oct 9 05:22:11 | 20h 05m | THE RACCON SWOOP TROOP | ♥ 0 | I think your game might be private on itch.io as it's asking me for a password. |
| Oct 9 05:30:25 | 8m 14s | Army Ants | ♥ 1 | I can't find the links for this game. Sounds interesting though. |
| Oct 9 11:17:47 | 5h 47m | Forest Fighter 3000 | ♥ 2 | I would of liked more obstacles as it was a bit too easy to escape / lead the ants away; but I guess this is a bit more relaxing and accessible. Also found the patterns a bit repetitive but overall nice graphics. |
| Oct 9 21:39:31 | 10h 21m | Jarred | ♥ 1 | On some of the levels the bugs started disappearing a bit at the bottom of the screen. But I liked the game and the graphics especially the shadows. |
| Oct 10 02:23:19 | 4h 43m | About Crayons and my garden | ♥ 1 | The mixing of many different types of art was interesting. Despite being not what I would normally go for it was very cool. I'd also like to know how you set up the placement as there is no obvious repeat. |
| Oct 10 03:18:41 | 55m 22s | The Rumour Of Kolega | ♥ 0 | Nice art, but I could not use `F` on the ghost for some reason. |
| Oct 10 04:37:34 | 1h 18m | Nature Tiny Creatures | ♥ 1 | The graphics look nice even though the frogs looked a little odd when climbing at an angle. A bit too fast for my reaction time but still a nice game. |
| Oct 10 04:45:16 | 7m 42s | Mimic | ♥ 1 | Interesting story but I found it a bit hard to distinguish the gap between different options. The story felt like I couldn't directly know what was going on (because it was just text) but it made me see more through the eyes of the creature and added to the feeling that I was missing something. |
| Oct 10 06:41:54 | 1h 56m | Breeding Pixels | ♥ 2 | Really liked the spiders, stopped killing them. The legs sometimes seemed a bit suck though. |
| Oct 11 06:55:31 | 24h 13m | Fly does not sit | ♥ 2 | I found it a bit odd that the fly was slowly drifting down; but it was encouragement to stay on my toes a bit more. |
| Oct 11 11:01:59 | 4h 06m | The Little Life | ♥ 1 | I really liked the ecosystem concept (even though in my setups one species always seems to take over). I'm still impressed you could get the overlay to look so natural, did you just draw what each layer would look like for each bone or did you write some kind of spawning algorithm. |
| Oct 11 11:27:19 | 25m 20s | Human Heist | ♥ 0 | I liked the switching mechanic as it meant I had to think ahead a lot more than in the other jam games. |
| Oct 11 11:29:42 | 2m 23s | The Slushiest Slime | ♥ 2 | I liked the art but I found the place where the wall started a bit odd. Mabey I'm just not used to this 3d but flat style. |
| Oct 11 11:31:24 | 1m 42s | Kwakerz | ♥ 2 | It was a bit sad for me seeing all the ducks die so not really my style but liked gameplay. |
| Oct 11 11:33:42 | 2m 18s | Finding Gilbert | ♥ 2 | The wave effects were nice, and amazing how much work you must have put in for the individual graphics/dialog. Didn't end up finding Gilbert though :(. |
| Oct 11 11:41:46 | 8m 04s | The Noir Library | ♥ 0 | I've clicked on everything but I don't seem to be able to get the last clue from Hamlet. I found the references quite interesting though. |
| Oct 11 11:47:00 | 5m 14s | You Can Save The Rat | ♥ 2 | Really liked the hand-drawn art style. It took me a while to find the rat hole and start the story line though. Mabey I should have realised from the title. |
| Oct 11 11:50:57 | 3m 57s | Eat the Moon | ♥ 0 | It was a bit difficult to understand where I should try to go next. Even though that's part of the mystery a bit more of a tutorial at the beginning would have been nice. |
| Oct 11 11:54:59 | 4m 02s | Tiny meat boys | ♥ 1 | Really interesting mechanics. I found when they were stacked to high they started to overlap and jitter a bit. Maybe that's just my computer/browser though. |
| Oct 11 12:00:26 | 5m 27s | Who's Behind the Fix? | ♥ 0 | The fixing of circuits reminded me of Flow; It did take me a surprising long time to figure out the little yellow arrow meant the nearest circuit for some reason. Found the dialog pretty funny. |
| Oct 11 12:05:30 | 5m 04s | Santa's Servants | ♥ 1 | It was a bit sad for me to watch all the snowmen splatter as I am not very competent at steering and never managed to get past the spinning bits of wood. Still liked the graphics and the holiday music really made it for me. |
| Oct 11 12:09:25 | 3m 55s | Black Harvest | ♥ 1 | For some reason the black hand and eye seemed out of place with the rest of the graphics though that might have been intentional. Really liked the creatures. |
| Oct 11 12:11:54 | 2m 29s | Rise of the Wee Giraffes | ♥ 1 | Liked the mashup of photos/animation (I usually like a single consistent style so I was surprised how well this turned out). Did you get all the photos / animations yourself? |
| Oct 11 20:37:12 | 8h 25m | Bee-Gone! | ♥ 1 | I liked the graphics but it did look a bit odd that the bees were rotating around a single point. |
| Oct 11 20:40:40 | 3m 28s | Metal Antlers | ♥ 1 | I found the text contrast made it a bit hard to read, but really nice graphics. |
| Oct 11 20:44:35 | 3m 55s | Very! Tiny Creatures | ♥ 4 | I liked the sound effects even though some background music might have been nice. |
| Oct 11 21:23:55 | 39m 20s | Little Summin' | ♥ 1 | Because of the set amount of time each round, this game encourages you to not necessarily want just the numbers that add to give the right thing but think ahead and leave some small/large ones for the last round (not doing this and just getting the small numbers was my mistake). I found it a bit hard to click maybe because I am on a trackpad but that's just part of the fun. |
| Oct 11 21:51:05 | 27m 10s | Tiny Sanctuary | ♥ 1 | Surprisingly fun to just sit back and guide my colony around. a few times they di go off the screen or under rocks so it was hard to see or feed them but that's part of the challenge. It was interesting to go from just one to 20. I found the that when they split they looked a bit small but I liked how they seemed to sometimes inherit traits from their parents (even though I would have liked this to be a bit stronger). I also found that when too many were in the same area they paused. |
| Oct 11 22:24:15 | 33m 10s | It's spreading! | ♥ 1 | It took me a while to get the hang of left and right clicking but pretty fun. |
| Oct 11 23:00:33 | 36m 18s | Elemental Pixels | ♥ 1 | Wasn't sure what the goal was, but an interesting concept where you overwrite other pixels. |
| Oct 11 23:02:27 | 1m 54s | Hamster Run | ♥ 1 | The controls were a little hard to use at first, and my camera kept going into the ground but fun game and a nice looking world. |
| Oct 11 23:28:19 | 25m 52s | Farmer Friendly Ladybug | ♥ 1 | Nice simple art style (would have liked the bugs to be a bit bigger). After the first few tries (to work out the mechanics) it gets a bit easy though. |
| Oct 11 23:49:39 | 21m 20s | Tiny Rescue | ♥ 4 | Very relaxing game, liked the graphics. Some stuff like the dragon and the lego didn't seem to fit with the rest of the scenery but that's ok. |
| Oct 12 00:12:05 | 22m 26s | Mutation Machinations | ♥ 1 | Fun cards and the back and forth was interesting. Couldn't beat the gam though :( |
| Oct 12 00:16:59 | 4m 54s | NotBigEnough | ♥ 2 | Just continuously clicking made the game a bit too easy. liked the graphics though. |
| Oct 12 01:22:57 | 1h 05m | Microadventure | ♥ 1 | I liked the animations and all the messages. I also thought the level designs were pretty cool. Some of the pixel art seemed a little out of place like the keys, swords and extra large bacteria, but it was very self consistent. |
| Oct 12 01:40:53 | 17m 56s | Ants! | ♥ 2 | I really liked the graphics and avoiding the anteaters and leading around the ants is an interesting take on the theme. When you have one ant left and it gets eaten it seems to just shrink to a few pixels. Because they just follow the mouse and don't try to stay in a swarm it looks a bit odd when the get cut into 2 groups when running against a corner, but this generally isn't a problem. |
| Oct 12 01:52:21 | 11m 28s | Void Creatures | ♥ 2 | Really liked the swarming behaviour and trying to get more while still avoiding flares made it much more interesting. Avoiding the flares was really difficult for me and I only survived the first few but I still like the strategy. |
| Oct 12 02:04:07 | 11m 46s | Critter Mayhem | ♥ 1 | I couldn't find any pearls the first round and even though I liked the graphics there were a lot of gaps in the rock meshes (was that intentional though?). Still a fun game |
| Oct 12 02:58:20 | 54m 13s | For Someone | ♥ 1 | I really liked the contrast between the frantic shooting and the philosophical dialog. The dogging was pretty fun even though I would have liked a more obvious sign that I has been hit. A small bug was that the dots disappeared just before going through the wall. Got 206 hits and collected 173 essence. |
| Oct 12 03:30:45 | 32m 25s | Gweeble Garden | ♥ 0 | Very interesting graphics, just wondering how you made sure they were valid words (did you list nouns, verbs, e.c.t.,). It was very satisfying to get them into chains. the only problem I had was some of the words were really long and unreadable at that scale and sometimes I dragged across to the piles but noting happened. |
| Oct 12 04:23:54 | 53m 09s | Snake Sleuth | ♥ 1 | Fun game (seemed a bit like candy crush) liked the hexagonal layout and the snakes. |
| Oct 12 04:40:20 | 16m 26s | Slime Store Simulator 2024 | ♥ 1 | I liked the graphics but it took me a while to work out I needed a pen for customers to come in. It was also confusing that some items said can not buy even though I could buy them. |
| Oct 12 05:00:39 | 20m 19s | Little Guys! | ♥ 1 | Found the moving background and the join between it and the other background really distracting but I liked the concept. |
| Oct 12 06:01:10 | 1h 00m | Larrys Ducked Up Adventures 2 | ♥ 2 | This might just be my computer but the controls were really jerky. Nice graphics though. |
| Oct 12 11:51:15 | 5h 50m | Xemaverse | ♥ 1 | On my computer the text and some of the buttons were cut off which was a bit annoying. |
| Oct 12 11:59:15 | 8m 00s | One day | ♥ 1 | I didn't really know how to rate this game. I liked the graphics even though some of the art like the person and doors looked a little out of place. I would also have liked more of and indicator of price but overall this game had some nice setups even though they felt a bit unfinished. |
| Oct 12 12:26:58 | 27m 43s | The Immortals Snails | ♥ 1 | Nice dialog at the start and the graphics were quite good. Also liked the music. Some of the navigation was a bit hard to use because I had to set it to full screen so every time I needed to escape I had to do it twice then full screen again. |
| Oct 12 21:51:00 | 9h 24m | Tinybuns | ♥ 1 | I like the way it gradually increase in difficulty and the graphics, I would have liked to be able to just drop once they were in the right column and I found the way they moved by themselves a bit annoying but I guess it does make this game fit more with the theme of tiny creaturs. |
| Oct 12 21:58:56 | 7m 56s | The Pilgrim | ♥ 2 | Like the graphics but at first I found it a bit hard to tell what I could jump on. |
| Oct 12 22:12:36 | 13m 40s | Petit Peuple | ♥ 2 | Very pretty I haven't seen the multiple layers to emulate 3d before in this jam. It felt like some of the art was drawn by different people and I'm used to being able to use multiple arrow keys and swap between them but overall the game was fun it was interesting trying to find the hidden creatures. |
| Oct 12 23:13:56 | 1h 01m | Don't turn around, bugs | ♥ 0 | The bugs appear to have some sort of vision range which was not obvious at the start of the game. And there were a few times the game would just get stuck without warning because the bug could not get to the fruit even though that is part of the strategy. But overall a good puzzle game with some very nice bug graphics. |
| Oct 13 04:37:23 | 5h 23m | Beetle with a Mixtape | ♥ 2 | I would have preferred the bugs animating when moving instead of wriggling back and forth and it was a bit unclear how to move forward (though maybe that's the point). Liked the pixel are style. |
| Oct 13 05:22:21 | 44m 58s | Frecko | ♥ 0 | Fun graphics. Sometimes the meshes of the trees got cut away by the camera. But trying to trap the blobs while avoiding the same happening to myself was pretty fun. |
| Oct 13 05:36:20 | 13m 59s | Plinko Pals | ♥ 1 | Liked the design, but the popups and move my mouse to the drop button was a bit annoying. Overall an interesting concept. |
| Oct 13 10:15:53 | 4h 39m | MindControl | ♥ 1 | Very interesting mechanics. It was a bit easy once I got the idea so would have liked to see more complex challenges. A bit of background music would have been nice but overall nice art and an interesting concept. |
| Oct 13 10:36:22 | 20m 29s | Unfinished | ♥ 0 | I can't see any game, is this a mistake? |
| Oct 13 10:43:10 | 6m 48s | Cosmic Themes | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea and style even though there wasn't much of a game. Would have liked a bit more changeup maybe some different options. |
| Oct 14 01:14:59 | 14h 31m | Pest Quest | ♥ 1 | Even though it took a while for the cockroach to react and the frames felt really slow (could just be because I don't have my GPU working) I liked the style and the animation. |
| Oct 14 01:20:28 | 5m 29s | HAIRDIVERS | ♥ 3 | Overall a fun game. It was also a bit hard for me to understand the commander but that was part of the challenge. |
| Oct 14 03:48:58 | 2h 28m | Destroy these tiny creatures, they are nasty and swarming | ♥ 1 | I liked the hand-drawn look and the different styles each time kept me hooked, the animations were especially good. I'm not sure I learn the message about kindness but fun game. |
| Oct 14 05:34:40 | 1h 45m | Gnorberium | ♥ 0 | Liked the art even though the gameplay involved a lot of watching still pretty fun. |
| Oct 14 06:42:26 | 1h 07m | Sammich | ♥ 4 | Liked the style and the comic at the start. Couldn't work out the trick for balancing it but still had fun. Edit: I only just realised what I thought was a rock or something under the sandwich was actually the man's nose. |
| Oct 17 09:50:23 | 75h 07m | Tiny Aliens | ♥ 1 | Liked the overall style even though I found the background a bit distracting. There is also a small bug where as the aliens are animating toward the spaceship they can still set off the range of the hunter. But overall nice game. |
| Oct 18 05:45:34 | 19h 55m | Fearless for Fears | ♥ 0 | It was a bit too easy to cheese the game and just shoot in the direction the boss is (offscreen) without ever being attacked. I also found that the different scales of pixel art and the other more high resolution objects (menus and the bullets) just didn't seem to fit together; but overall, nice concept and animations. |
| Oct 18 06:20:23 | 34m 49s | Plankton Rush Hour | ♥ 1 | For some reason I really liked the concept of a shrimp creature rushing through crowds to get to work. The background seemed a bit off an only the 1 key seemed to do anything. It wasn't completely obvious that I could just barge through creatures (I thought I would loose points for some reason). But overall very unique idea. |
| Oct 18 22:19:47 | 15h 59m | Tiny Apple | ♥ 1 | I really liked how there were effects for everything but they all tied in together with the grayscale colours. I would have liked something else to be added in as the level went up, but overall nice game. A bit of background music / noises would have been nice but that might not have gone with the idle game style. Edit: Oh sorry, my volume was down. |
| Oct 20 05:51:12 | 31h 31m | Petri | ♥ 0 | Note: you need to rate & give feedback (ratings stop increasing you smart rating after a bit so feedback) to other players games to get ratings. I found the mouse sensitivity a bit high, though that might just be me. |
| Oct 20 05:57:21 | 6m 09s | Spider Grand Prix | ♥ 0 | If you want people to rate your game you probably need to leave a download (or even better a link to play from the browser); also please leave feedback on other peoples games so, karma, the main factor in how high you game is on the "smart" score is given based on likes to your feedback. Rating games is also highly encouraged and will increase you smart score to an extent. |
| Oct 20 06:05:56 | 8m 35s | Pondwater | ♥ 0 | The creatures were a bit hard to see and nothing seemed to follow the WASD keys (am understanding this correctly?) and I couldn't left click. Also, if you expect to get a rating at the end you need to give feedback (and get likes) on other games. This will boost your smart score. Rating the games is also highly encouraged and will partially boost your smart score. |
| Oct 20 06:11:29 | 5m 33s | Masterpiece Mischief | ♥ 0 | I found it a little odd that the bugs didn't disappear when you clicked them but overall a fun concept. If you want to get a score, please leave feedback on other peoples games so, karma, one of the main factors in how high you game is on the “smart” score is given based on likes to your feedback. I would also rate other games. |
| Oct 20 06:16:23 | 4m 54s | Info Worms | ♥ 0 | I couldn't work out how to play maybe because I was using the web version but I liked the graphics. Also please leave feedback on other peoples games to get more ratings. |
| Oct 20 06:21:26 | 5m 03s | might as well not exist | ♥ 0 | The graphics looked a bit odd but an interesting concept I would have liked a bit of narrative/explanation but with better images I could see this becoming really atmospheric. Also, you should leave feedback on other peoples games to get ratings. |
| Oct 20 08:31:25 | 2h 09m | One of us will make it | ♥ 1 | It would be nice to have some visual cue which creature is next and which buttons map to which walls but I guess the current setup makes you explore the level. The art style is really good especially the background and the creatures with their animations. |
| Oct 20 21:27:39 | 12h 56m | Cute Animal Jigsaw-like Puzzle | ♥ 1 | Very unique and interesting I would have liked move levels but this was still fun. |
| Oct 20 21:40:24 | 12m 45s | Fishfestation | ♥ 1 | I found the controller a bit hard to work with but impressive you could do a 3d game. I also liked the art/graphics. |
| Oct 20 22:07:40 | 27m 16s | Adghg | ♥ 1 | I can't see any game. Did you accidently publish? |
| Oct 21 07:59:07 | 9h 51m | Alice's Tiny Adventure | ♥ 2 | It took me a while to realise that I was supposed to avoid the beam and it took a while to feel like I was getting somewhere; something else to collect or some direction might have helped. But I really liked the concept and the maze was fun to explore once I had an idea of where the potion was. At one point when the guard turned around an I was behind him he somehow got carried with me when I moved then got stuck against a wall trying to go in the same direction. Is that the intentional behaviour? |
| Oct 22 00:02:12 | 16h 03m | Gull and Ray | ♥ 1 | I liked the graphics and the general idea but I couldn't seem to collect anything, it just said to make sure you collect the best material. Maybe I'm just misunderstanding something. |
| Oct 25 07:21:10 | 79h 18m | lets get small | ♥ 1 | The shrinking was interesting but some other graphics would have been nice and more gradual shrinking. Just a bit of explanation and restart ability would have been nice, but overall a good concept with a lot of potential. |
| Oct 25 21:50:20 | 14h 29m | Corporate Swarm | ♥ 0 | I didn't know what I was supposed to do and the controls felt a bit hard to use but overall a interesting game. also odd things keep happening when I leave the tab briefly like all the men flying off (something to do with how you are calculating movement in relation to delta time?). |
