Apr 8 19:23:15 A walk arround the pit with your friendĀ“s head ♥ 1 Dude, like they totally didn't deserve that shit. That's what's wrong with the, you know. it's just wrong bro.
Apr 8 19:56:40 33m 25s Debts in the Depths ♥ 1 Really cool game. Banger soundtrack. Playing the mage made the auto battle phase really fun. It's a great way to extend the formula. Healing your units was even more engaging than just trying to shoot enemies. I think you could meaningfully expand on the concept of positioning by making the terrain matter more and maybe add a rock-paper-scissor mechanic to units. For me the best strategy seemed to be to just clump everyone to a ball of destruction. Awesome job!
Apr 8 20:18:57 22m 17s Prismarine ♥ 2 Awesome presentation. I like the text in the beginning and the character designs. Still, I really feel like I didn't understand something about the photo mechanic. Even though I thought I got some good snaps they all turned out almost completely black.
Apr 8 20:22:48 3m 51s Enter Exit ♥ 0 awesome style. Also the mushroom picking is a cool minigame. I like that it's not just random. Even though it's missing content, I think I most missed some audio. cheers
Apr 8 20:42:14 19m 26s North Depths ♥ 1 yooo! give me your ui skills. It's so good and readable. I know clicker is pretty established thing, but I think I would've enjoyed the early game more if the core gameplay was something along the lines of minesweeper. Could've still matched the theme and story well.
Apr 8 20:55:34 13m 20s Refinerator ♥ 1 Cool, simple graphics and an equally fitting soundtrack. Surprisingly tricky. This exudes real tower of hanoi vibes.
Apr 9 08:24:00 11h 28m into the forest depths ♥ 2 Insanely cool starting point. The graphics are obviously ahead of a lot of the game, but the systems are also really promising. Just needs improved writing to sell the characters and the world better. Right now that feels the most place holder-ish. And just adding a background track would add a lot to the package as a whole. cheers
Apr 10 13:03:56 28h 39m Spirit Lock ♥ 0 yo! Neat game. Switching 'worlds' was interesting. played it on stream for a bit: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=0h8m34s
Apr 10 13:14:09 10m 13s Shattered Depths ♥ 1 Yo! Very moody entry. And thanks for joining on stream! (Sorry about the fps lol) Here's the link to the vod if you're interested. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=0h20m3s
Apr 10 13:38:24 24m 15s D.E.E.P Impact ♥ 1 Yo! Thanks for hanging out and chatting. Had a good time, with what in my mind stays 'space invaders with fog of war' :3 you can rewatch the vod here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=0h36m0s
Apr 10 14:00:56 22m 32s Miner ♥ 1 Yo! Still confused a bit about what the cards do (especially the tnt one) but when having the 'gold rush' and just being able to dig FAST it feels great. Here's the vod from the stream you joined earlier: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=0h47m45s
Apr 10 14:03:01 2m 05s BENEATH ♥ 1 Easy 5 Star for everything from me. Completely loved the game. Duuuude, you got to rate some games. Would be a shame if you didn't get to the 20 ratings yourself. Here's the vod in case you want it: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=0h58m59s
Apr 10 17:31:44 3h 28m Echo-Of-Fallens ♥ 1 Yo! Spooky game. Quite a bit of potential, exploring the narrative a bit more and adding a little more writing could go a long way! Met you on stream and got the vod timestamp here in case you are interested: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=1h16m9s
Apr 10 17:38:05 6m 21s DUCKDEPF ♥ 1 The quick game loop always keeps you in the game and doesn't give you too much time to breath. Changing the formula up to gradually increase more difficult chunks would be a great improvement and also could lead to the ability to do some environmental storytelling. I imagine you could start with wooden planks and branches, later introduce some of the machinery and industrial themed obstacles and end it in a demonic dark descent. Timestamp to the vod https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=1h26m50s
Apr 10 17:44:58 6m 53s High Pressure Arena ♥ 1 Awesome graphics and really well tuned controls. Really not much to criticize, other than the difficulty could scale in a little sooner. Played it on stream with hex2start in the chat, here's a link to the timestamp: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=1h36m17s
Apr 10 17:53:46 8m 48s Just a few kilometers ♥ 1 Really made the most with the asset at hand. Lighting, bloom and colors were all tweaked excellently. Also a simple to understand game play mechanic that controls well. I dig it. Liked having you on stream, here's a link to the very laggy vod: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h3m43s
Apr 10 18:00:05 6m 19s Jimdinant 2 the Depths of Hell! ♥ 2 Game plays pretty well with just the mouse! Sometimes you can get a pretty tough seed, so I think for a really good score you'll probably need a couple of restarts. BasicMilky joined us on twitch and let me play the game, here's a link to the vod timestamp: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h15m45s
Apr 10 18:04:05 4m 00s SINKING ♥ 1 Hey, this has the bones of a really fun game. I think it'll just need a bit of iteration. Spoke about it on stream: it would be interesting to introduce the obstacle first and then let the player scurry around and find the right items. Giving them some hint what they should be looking for could make this a lot of fun. Here's a timestamp to when the game was played on steam: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h26m59s
Apr 10 18:10:16 6m 11s A New Hell ♥ 2 Really tough platforming that meshes really well with single screen levels you can just try over and over again very quickly. I think this game absolutely accomplishes what it sets out to achieve. Nice soundtrack and simple graphics that mesh very well to a really focused experience. Played it on stream here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h35m55s
Apr 10 18:15:34 5m 18s Dig in, Gus! ♥ 2 Super smooth controls! Just running around digging and wall jumping is a JOY! As I said on stream: I think some hints to where the next ore could be would be nice. Like orey veins in the background which you would still need to discover, but arent just a one block wide shiny thing that you have to chance upon. Here's a timestamp to the game in the vod: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h46m58s
Apr 10 18:24:00 8m 26s BTW: Beneath the Waves ♥ 2 Hey Aurel! Thanks for checking out the stream! Love, love, love the look. As I've said a couple of times now. The 'build your controls' on the fly style of gameplay is also pretty great. I think it might even work better like this than as a turn based game. Of course some of the design decision seem to be remnants of another idea, eg the leveling of the crew seemed fairly inconsequential, but it wasn't a detractor either. Nice pixelart as well! Here's a timestamp to when we player your game: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=2h58m34s
Apr 10 18:28:56 4m 56s Sound Of Ignorance ♥ 2 Hey man! I really struggled with the puzzle design. I didn't know how to collect symbols at all. But the presentation was great. The game looks amazing and the moments when everything turns dark and red really invoke a crazy mood. Here's the time when I played it on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=3h14m50s
Apr 10 18:33:18 4m 22s Johnny Depths ♥ 2 Pretty cool! Straight forward typing game. Even though I'm not the greatest typer it still was fun to play. Would be really cool if the words would tell even more of a story. Had D0vidds join on stream, here's the vod in case you want to check it out again: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2428950737?t=3h25m40s
Apr 11 09:33:28 15h 00m Low Maintenance ♥ 3 yoo, I didn't look at the team size before playing. Now it makes a lot more sense. Incredible amount of content you guys got in there. Awesome graphics and mood. Very eery. Gameplay was very straight forward. Although I didn't understand how to kill the final boss. D: Recorded some footage of me playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytHeKIrk4fA
Apr 11 09:55:54 22m 26s Antz vs Plantz ♥ 2 yo! Very cool concept! I would have never guessed that tower defense and pachinko match so well together! Got wrecked by the boss though. No idea what progress I made on him or if it's even possible to defeat. Might be worthwhile to put a health bar on the screen when he appears or something- Stellar effort!
