| Apr 8 09:50:01 | Dyamid | ♥ 2 | I'm not typically a fan of puzzle games, but I really enjoyed playing this one. Most of the time, figuring out what to do felt pretty intuitive, though there were a few head-scratching moments. Overall, it was pleasing to play ! The only drawback that I saw was that the brown blocks that prevent moving in some cases are not very visible, so it was frustrating sometimes, when I was blocked without seeing them at first. The gameplay is satisfying, with engaging particle effects and sounds, and the minimalist style is cute. It's impressive that all of this was created by just one person, so good work ! | |
| Apr 8 09:56:27 | 6m 26s | A Very Deep Tunnel | ♥ 1 | I had a lot of fun with this one ! The atmosphere was very effective, I really felt as a lonely adventurer in a mysterious tunnel. With the music coming up later, the cold atmosphere become more lively, it's nice. I could see that you were lacking of time in the end, but we had a fun time thinking up about a twist ending where the wall was falling, showing another tunnel even deeper. Very good work ! |
| Apr 8 11:22:49 | 1h 26m | CONFESSION | ♥ 1 | Nice little experience, got a little issue with the cloud puzzle, I had one part that wasn't fully sized so I had to recheck each one haha I loved the feeling of the driving boat part, it felt very smooth. |
| Apr 8 14:29:13 | 3h 06m | This game is mid | ♥ 0 | For a game made that fast, it's pretty funny and the music is catchy, it's a nice small experience. The jumps were a bit buggy though (I jumped once out of bounds so I had to restart). But otherwise the jumps that goes over the top fit well the funny mood of the game. Nice work ! |
| Apr 8 14:36:31 | 7m 18s | Voyage au centre de la Terre | ♥ 1 | As a french person, I clicked here when I saw the title, and I don't regret it haha Short but funny, I enjoyed it, and thanks for adding an english translation ! |
| Apr 9 07:04:42 | 16h 28m | Deep Drop | ♥ 2 | I had apprehension when starting the game, but actually I had some fun playing it ! I almost passed the last ice block after several attempts (but I miscalculated my jump uugh). It takes a little bit of time to setup the mouse sensibility and to understand the mechanics, but once it's done it's actually pretty intuitive, and each jump need a full focus. I think that it's on purpose that the jump was only based on sound, but maybe if you had some time it would have been nice to add an accessibility option that add a regular jump bar, for people with disability or simple who can't properly listen (no headset, noisy place...) while playing games ? Anyway, good work, that a nice take on the "raging game" genre ! |
| Apr 9 07:49:37 | 44m 55s | Treasures | ♥ 1 | Neat little game, I guess that I wasn't in the right mindset 😆 The first time I got eaten by the shark, the second time I got the treasure but tried to get back on the boat and got stuck on it (haven't seen the ladder), and the third time I got stuck perfectly vertically on the bottom of the screen, and couldn't get out before running out of oxygen. But once I got hand of it, the swimming felt rewarding and I liked the touch that once you get the chest, the physics change to show that the chest is heavy. Nice work ! |
| Apr 9 08:01:39 | 12m 02s | Earth Below | ♥ 2 | This game surprised me so many times, as soon as the first run (thinking I would climb up, and see myself falling to hell and getting beat up by the devil himself was a nice experience) It was rough at the start but with a bit of planification and understanding the pattern it's actually fairly doable and rewarding. It was really demanding to pass step of devil and when I saw the second boss literally spamming projectiles I was like "oh no", but actually the rest of the game wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I see that you wanted to add more "strategy" by limiting the blocks but couldn't because of time. Actually, I think the game is fine as it is; A big intense rush that become so thrilling that it's funny in its own way. Great work ! |
| Apr 9 08:10:03 | 8m 24s | The depths of a well | ♥ 0 | Sorry I couldn't play it as I can't click on the difficulty to start the game. Maybe it's related to my screen ratio (21:9) breaking the click hitbox ? I think that it would be better if the game ran in windowed mode, with a set resolution. (I guess that it's a pixel art game, so it would be fitting). Could you mention it if you fix it so I can try it ? 😄 |
| Apr 9 08:26:51 | 16m 48s | Holy Moly! | ♥ 2 | Wow, Knuckles is angry 😆 Very nice game, it was very pleasurable to play and felt so dynamic ! For the web version, it looks like you have similar issues as I did (freezes when loading something at runtime). I would advise you to try exporting the game with "Thread support" (+ enable "SharedArrayBuffer" on itch.io) and using preload() on the particules, sounds, or anything you instanciate during the gameplay, it should reduce greatly the freezes. Great work ! |
| Apr 9 08:39:56 | 13m 05s | Depths Help | ♥ 1 | I loved this game. The use of the theme on several meanings is a smart idea (depths of layer, depths of story...) Reordering the layers is actually satisfying, and I love the touch that the character tell himself regularly that he want to stop. Thanks for providing the answers though, I got most of it myself but it was useful to finish up the details and allow me to see the whole game. Thank you and great work ! |
| Apr 9 08:49:47 | 9m 51s | The Clockwork Heart | ♥ 1 | Very nice game ! The atmosphere is well done, and the puzzle solving feels great, I had to think a bit but I never got really stuck. (My favorite is the statue one). Thank you and good work ! |
| Apr 9 08:57:34 | 7m 47s | Well well... | ♥ 1 | Funny game ! I loved the small ragdoll animation of the character when moving, and I laught when hearing the hurt noises. It need focus but it's not that hard, however most of the time it's hard to see the obstacles as the character takes a lot of screen space. When I got to 100 rings I thought that I would get an extra life, but it looks like it was rather the end of mine 😆 So, good work ! |
| Apr 9 09:07:31 | 9m 57s | Deeply Missing | ♥ 1 | Nice game, there are several nice ideas (like the puzzle about the name) It's a bit frustrating at the end, we would like to know more about what happen ! I even checked in the source code if there was something after haha. It's doable but the fact that there is sometime a little offset between where you can walk and where you see the plateform can be misleading sometimes. Good job ! |
| Apr 9 12:46:00 | 3h 38m | Pandora's Return | ♥ 1 | I loved it ! I played it like any other game of this genre (by farming as much as possible and being overpowered at the boss) 😆 The feeling of progression is well made, and it's nice to struggle with subbosses only to realise later that the same enemies are now whipped in a few seconds. The combat system is a bit special at first, but become quickly pleasing so it's fine Great work overall ! Pandora looked like a lovely cat, and I think that this game is a beautiful tribute. 😄 |
| Apr 9 12:52:43 | 6m 43s | Wishing Evil | ♥ 1 | Fun game ! I wasn't expecting a aiming game, so I only managed to banish 87 with my office mouse, which is not that bad 😆 The art is nice and the gameplay is intense, so well done ! |
| Apr 9 14:26:03 | 1h 33m | Descent to sunrise | ♥ 1 | Very nice game ! The little characters are so cute, I was lost at a moment but I kept going because I wouldn't leave them in the cave haha I think that the less appreciable part is switching character, which is sad as it's an important part of the game. Maybe make them switch using keyboard arrows with a direction for each one would have been simpler ? Otherwise the graphics with the retro filter are pleasing, and finding news powers to be able to go on it very rewarding. Good job ! |
| Apr 11 08:09:08 | 41h 43m | Digdigdig | ♥ 1 | Hi, first at all that's a great game. It feels very polished, and as much as I don't like adventure game such as TL of Zelda, I liked travelling this little world and discovering its secrets. I liked being stuck wondering what could help me, then finding somewhere else exactly the upgrade I needed. However... I have to say the treasure at the invisible wall was inappropriate. Seeing my character butt-naked had me laugh, but him fully naked is clearly out of place. I saw that the golden statue in this game and your previous game has full nudity too, so it seems like it's something dear to you. You may keep it there or not, but you should at least put a disclaimer before playing or in the submission page. For you it may be be just something funny or trivial, but for some people it's not. It won't change my rating as I liked the game in many aspects, but the game would be great and funny even without this. |
| Apr 11 09:45:24 | 1h 36m | Slippery Socks | ♥ 2 | Yay ! Screenshot from 2025-04-11 11-44-02.png Fun little game ! Looks like you didn't loved the theme, but I like the way you worked around it ! Nice job 😄 |
| Apr 11 09:57:18 | 11m 54s | Puppeteer | ♥ 2 | Loved it! It was actually way deeper than I thought, you managed to turn this simple gimmick into something much more complex. I've been surprised several times to see how changing the perspective impact the character and/or the level. If there is more to it, I think that releasing a longer puzzle game based on this mecanics could be enjoyable for a lot of people ! |
| Apr 11 10:05:05 | 7m 47s | The Haunted Depths | ♥ 0 | Funny little game ! The writing is clever, giving enough hints while needing a bit of thoughts to be able to answer right. Like the others, I would have loved to have more visuals to immerse myself more in this universe. But great work anyway ! |
| Apr 11 10:16:35 | 11m 30s | A Memory of Her | ♥ 1 | Very nice ! I liked the little pieces of story when upgrading. The graphics are very cute, and even if the character has not an animation the other part of the screen are so lively that it's fine. Great job ! |
| Apr 11 13:30:51 | 3h 14m | Work-Life Balance | ♥ 1 | Yay I did it ! My two first playthoughs started with buying the boat, so I found the game quite hard. On my third try, I understood that it was random, and that I'm just an unlucky guy ahah. The only suggestion that I could give may be to don't use pixel art for text, such as the buttons ones. It's kinda clear as there is only 3 of them but it's really hard to read them at first as it's so small, whereas the rest of the text looks nice and is perfectly readable. In any case, very cute and funny game ! Good job(aha) ! |
| Apr 11 13:37:16 | 6m 25s | Hell R Us | ♥ 1 | Great game, fun to play, funny to read ! |
