Apr 24 09:15:37 Planet Divers: XTREME Underground ♥ 2 Capture d'écran 2025-04-24 105707.png I'll be honest — I didn’t fully understand the controls at first. I’m using an AZERTY keyboard, which probably didn’t help (I’m honestly shocked that Unreal doesn’t support physical key position bindings 😮). Once I opened the pause menu and saw the gamepad hints, I switched to a controller — much better! Even then, I’m still not sure I got everything. I figured out the shield and cooling mechanics, but there’s a slot on the left that I never used and didn’t quite understand. Also, some satellites crash off-screen, so it's hard to know whether you would have managed to dodge them without using the shield. I think full mouse control could have worked really well for this kind of gameplay! That said — it looks great, and the sound design is super clean. Nice work! 👏
Apr 24 09:47:38 32m 01s Pandora's Box ♥ 1 Capture d'écran 2025-04-24 113819.png Good shmup! I didn’t try the Pandora Box at first because I thought filling it would instantly end the level — and later, I assumed that the more you filled it, the better the effect... but I guess that was just me making things up, right? 😆 One small thing: I think there should be a short cooldown before inputs are accepted on the inter-level screen, because I accidentally start almost every level by clicking too quickly. Also, the final boss is a total HP sponge — but I managed to beat it on my first try! The Pandora effects totally caught me off guard. Each one was a surprise, and I loved that. (That DVD save screen one? Perfection👌)
Apr 24 10:21:28 33m 50s Lust4Life ♥ 1 I experienced a weird freeze right as I reached the end of the game (both in the jam and post-jam versions). That said, it was a cool experience, and the art style is beautiful! There’s definitely a lot of potential for improvement with meta progression😛
Apr 24 15:02:13 4h 40m Underwatica ♥ 1 SuzyFish for the win! At first, I thought the scanner might get a little wild, but it turns out it's totally safe for kids 😆 The only thing that threw me off was the camera — I kinda lost my sense of direction and couldn’t tell which way was up 😮
Apr 24 21:36:13 6h 34m Hooking Back ♥ 0 I really liked the ending twist, but I need something (or... someone ?) to hook (dono, a cloud, a sun, EVERYTHING)
Apr 24 22:37:55 1h 01m Welcome to Veinridge! ♥ 2 This is so much works ! well done ! (I want to go to the colapsed zone and know that Will's cat will be fed 😢 )
Apr 25 09:32:51 10h 54m THE NAUTICAL GOSPEL ♥ 1 Nice puzzle game! It took me a little while to read "FIN" on the last level 😆 Level 18 really melted my brain — I’m still not sure I fully understand the rules the “others” follow, but somehow I managed to manipulate them the right way!
Apr 25 10:55:59 1h 23m Find the Abyss ♥ 1 I really like the idea — it has a lot of potential! I spent way too much time dropping probes into the water… I felt this uncontrollable urge to EXPLORE EVERYTHING 🤣
Apr 25 11:28:23 32m 24s Ball Defense ♥ 1 I didn’t realize you could interact with the troops after launching them... I think that part could maybe be automated — I spent quite a bit of time trying (and failing) to trigger them, which was a bit frustrating 😢 That said, I ended up beating the game twice, so clearly I got hooked! 😄 It’s all good — I think this could turn into a really cool game!
Apr 25 13:02:48 1h 34m Rock Bottom ♥ 1 Capture d'écran 2025-04-25 145502.png Thanks, Mr. Cat! The object handling was a bit tricky, but I really liked the universe — even if it’s totally unrealistic. I mean, I bought a cat a drink to get a special coin from a snail so I could repay my debt to a beaver… with €20 coins. And we all know €20 coins DON'T EVEN EXIST 😆
Apr 25 13:23:42 20m 54s bucketbot ♥ 1 Capture d'écran 2025-04-25 151950.png It wasn’t easy, but definitely doable! As others have said — frogs are pure evil 😈 I love how they smile when you get close, like they know. Not sure if it was intended, but I managed to time things by trapping the bot against the sides — worked surprisingly well!
Apr 25 13:39:02 15m 20s Sinking Ship ♥ 1 The last level (before the loop) was much harder than the others — you really need to get the timing just right! That said, it’s a cool puzzle game — well done!
Apr 25 14:11:15 32m 13s A Mindful Descent ♥ 0 I didn’t find any of the cores 😭 Is it possible I just didn’t recognize them and missed them completely?
