|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 6 23:24:16 | John Highland and a Special Golden Crown | ♥ 1 | That’s really cool! I especially liked that the progress is saved =D You could improve the controls a bit and make it work on mobile :) | |
| Oct 6 23:30:58 | 6m 42s | Goblin Lord's Dream | ♥ 2 | Pretty conceptual :) I didn’t understand anything, and the ghost broke my eyes — but the idea is interesting! |
| Oct 6 23:40:18 | 9m 20s | Frumpkins 3: We Summon Thee! | ♥ 1 | The game was really buggy, and it’s not clear how the theme is represented. |
| Oct 6 23:47:46 | 7m 28s | esCargo | ♥ 1 | Very cool art! It would be really interesting to see the finished game without bugs and with properly tuned balance :) |
| Oct 6 23:53:56 | 6m 10s | Let it R.I.P. | ♥ 3 | Overall, the idea is clear and I liked it, but I think the fact that they run away right away is unnecessary — I just kept circling around to see who would run. |
| Oct 7 08:27:12 | 8h 33m | Beach Of Our Memories | ♥ 0 | The music and aesthetics are cool, but the gameplay is way too slow. |
| Oct 7 08:51:50 | 24m 38s | Murderabilia | ♥ 1 | The aesthetics are cool — it instantly reminded me of Cluedo! But I didn’t really understand how to play :) I just walked around killing everyone and taking their stuff =D |
| Oct 7 09:26:43 | 34m 53s | Cursed Collector | ♥ 1 | Visually, it’s done really well, but the controls aren’t very comfortable :) overall, I liked it. |
| Oct 7 09:44:36 | 17m 53s | Gobblin' Günther | ♥ 2 | Sorry, but the game doesn’t work — only the jump button does. |
| Oct 7 10:14:38 | 30m 02s | EVERYTHING: The Trading Card Game | ♥ 1 | It’s not immediately clear how to play. But once I figured it out, it became interesting! I’d improve the tutorial and visually show how many cards we have — because I managed to sell down to -99 cards with tons of money. But I can’t buy that many. Also, it’s unclear how to win if we need 100 cards in 10 days when we can only buy 10 cards per day, and they’re all different. |
| Oct 7 10:24:27 | 9m 49s | Salvage Man | ♥ 0 | This game was weird — but overall, it was kind of fun to throw stuff out the window straight into the car. Though my mouse was suuuper slow. |
| Oct 7 10:30:00 | 5m 33s | Destruct-A-Bots | ♥ 0 | The game is easy to understand, and the sounds are pretty good. But the bots are way too dumb — I just placed one robot in each row and won everywhere except the last one, where I put down four mice :) |
| Oct 7 10:40:46 | 10m 46s | SECRET MUSHROOM PASTA | ♥ 2 | I collected 11 achievements, but the game froze after jumping into the abyss and reopening the door :( Overall, it’s really fun — I’d just make wall jumps more comfortable. |
| Oct 7 11:01:38 | 20m 52s | The Collector’s Due | ♥ 2 | I liked it — I completed it 100%! When the pictures started overlapping, I thought that would be the end for me, but I managed to finish it :) Not sure about the theme, but the vibe is really cool! |
| Oct 7 11:06:59 | 5m 21s | Toy not trash! | ♥ 2 | A small but pleasant game — I liked the art and the story, though the gameplay felt a bit weak =) |
| Oct 7 11:20:15 | 13m 16s | Artifact Hunter | ♥ 0 | Cool game, but it would be nice to be able to fight to the end or have a button to return to the base — right now it feels like a “press start button” simulator :) Also, when two enemies appear, you can still only collect the reward from one of them. |
| Oct 7 11:36:10 | 15m 55s | Cryptozootography | ♥ 4 | Fun little game! I definitely wanted to walk around that forest myself, but it was still cool :) It’s missing a journal or book where you could see which creatures you’ve photographed and which ones are still hidden in shadow. |
| Oct 7 11:52:03 | 15m 53s | Achievement: Unlock all achievements | ♥ 2 | The idea is interesting overall, but I got stuck at 15 achievements — I couldn’t set the birthday, and nothing happened when I tried to adjust the date. Still, definite points for the concept :) |
| Oct 7 13:04:47 | 1h 12m | GunShift | ♥ 1 | I liked it :) There’s definitely room to grow, but the game itself is nicely polished! The upgrades could be made a bit clearer, but overall it turned out really well. |
| Oct 7 13:13:10 | 8m 23s | Claw & Collect | ♥ 0 | Fun and addictive game! But it’s missing some kind of mini-game for keeping the ball in play — right now it feels like it just falls randomly before reaching the goal. It would also be nice to get points not only at the end of the game, but also for collecting certain special balls — like boosters or AI grabbers. |
| Oct 7 13:17:17 | 4m 07s | Tarnos Quest | ♥ 0 | The idea is cool, and the art style is nice too. But the difficulty is pretty high — I couldn’t beat anyone, and I can’t see the enemies’ HP. Also, I don’t really get why you need to reduce HP for each body part separately? :) |
| Oct 7 13:27:46 | 10m 29s | The Collected | ♥ 1 | Awesome game! I totally got hooked — the only thing is, I couldn’t quite figure out what some of the cards do, and I kept winning just by using the bearded guys with briefcases =D I didn’t wait for all the dots at the end =) |
| Oct 7 13:40:11 | 12m 25s | Go Be Collector Somewhere Else | ♥ 1 | That was fun! Though I got stuck on level 5 since I couldn’t quite figure out the mechanic. An interesting interpretation of the theme :) photo_2025-10-07_16-39-43.jpg |
| Oct 7 13:47:23 | 7m 12s | The Candelabra | ♥ 2 | It looks interesting, but I didn’t understand anything. Still, I won =D Or is it impossible to lose here? :) |
| Oct 7 13:55:52 | 8m 29s | Pactbound | ♥ 1 | The game’s about “buy everything that can be bought.” I like the vibe overall, though it’s a bit sad that the cards are unreadable. It’s also hard to tell what we already have and what else we can collect. Does the game even have an ending? My quota is 200, but I’m collecting 400 :) |
| Oct 7 14:07:47 | 11m 55s | Seven-Day Bargain | ♥ 1 | Pretty cool game — I even got a bit hooked! It’s not very clear how the theme ties in, but otherwise it’s interesting. |
| Oct 7 14:21:19 | 13m 32s | Ashveil | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun — I love Minesweeper, and this game gives it a fresh twist :) Too bad nothing drops from the mobs with 100 HP :( |
| Oct 7 14:24:25 | 3m 06s | The A?! game | ♥ 2 | A! |
| Oct 7 14:39:32 | 15m 07s | Key Master | ♥ 1 | A cool and nicely challenging game — I beat it on my third try :) |
| Oct 7 14:46:22 | 6m 50s | EBLU | ♥ 1 | Cool style, but my eyes start to hurt really quickly ) And why can’t you ride the wolf? I really wanted to =D |
| Oct 7 14:47:28 | 1m 06s | Rogue Scribe | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea — I’d love to see it expanded into a larger world, maybe with a top-down Diablo-like view =D |
| Oct 7 15:17:01 | 29m 33s | Patch-flip Scout Camp | ♥ 1 | Oh, this game is just awesome! It reminded me of Runebound, which I used to play a lot with my wife and friends :) I’d really love to see this idea developed further! |
| Oct 7 15:35:41 | 18m 40s | Monsters in Jars | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept, though I’m not really a fan of the setting. Some of the enemies feel unbalanced, but overall, it’s pretty good for a jam game. |
| Oct 7 15:38:49 | 3m 08s | Cats King | ♥ 1 | Well, that was weird — and honestly kind of funny :) But overall, if this was their first game, I’d say good luck to them! |
| Oct 7 15:46:18 | 7m 29s | Pure soul | ♥ 1 | I didn’t understand how to beat the three of them — while I’m attacking one with 10 damage, the others just gang up on me. Also, I somehow managed to fit two tokens instead of one. And I couldn’t figure out how to use the sword. It would be great if that were explained in the game description :) |
| Oct 7 15:55:53 | 9m 35s | Paper Fishing | ♥ 1 | The sounds are AWESOME! =D The game itself is actually pretty fun, and it sticks to the theme well. I’d love to see this idea developed further :) The only thing is that the other fish got in the way while I was trying to catch one — though I guess that was part of the design. Still, Poppy the cannibal is wild XD |
| Oct 7 16:02:30 | 6m 37s | HUNTBORN | ♥ 0 | Crafting in the style of Vampire Survivors is awesome! I need to remember that idea :) There’s an issue in the game though — resources eventually run out, so there’s nothing left to craft with. You should make trees regrow, and as for stones… maybe have waves bring them in :) |
| Oct 7 16:10:29 | 7m 59s | Please don't touch my collection | ♥ 2 | Whoa, that’s quite a collection! Awesome! :) Overall, the puzzle turned out to be really interesting — it could totally be expanded in the direction of a 100 Doors-style game. |
| Oct 7 16:28:26 | 17m 57s | RunicForce | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun game! Though it took me a while to understand the rules for how we move and attack. Overall, it gives off strong Heroes of Might and Magic III vibes :) |
| Oct 7 16:33:35 | 5m 09s | Adult Life | ♥ 1 | An interesting clicker about life :) But I couldn’t find the right balance between work, studying, and personal life =D way too hard! |
| Oct 7 17:40:22 | 1h 06m | Unreflows | ♥ 1 | Fairly conceptual — I managed to finish it, though it’s not really clear what exactly we’re collecting :) |
| Oct 7 18:57:59 | 1h 17m | Keklik | ♥ 1 | Cute little game about a duck :) |
| Oct 8 12:27:16 | 17h 29m | Little monster makehouse | ♥ 1 | The concept is cool, but it was tough. The part where the circle is supposed to turn green is nearly impossible to notice, and there’s not enough time at the start — it’d be better if the difficulty ramped up gradually. |
| Oct 8 12:32:58 | 5m 42s | GHARK - Soul Collector | ♥ 0 | The game is very atmospheric — I really like it :) It just needs some bug fixes and a bit of polish, and it would be perfect! |
| Oct 8 12:39:24 | 6m 26s | Staying Alone | ♥ 0 | In the second location, there were only crosses, but aside from that, the game was super chill and atmospheric! I really liked it :) |
| Oct 8 12:43:40 | 4m 16s | Ionfall | ♥ 4 | Interesting concept, but it’s not clear what you’re supposed to do :) And after I lost, nothing reset — I had to reload the game. |
| Oct 8 12:49:57 | 6m 17s | Familiar | ♥ 3 | Top-tier cat sounds! :) Interesting concept, but I didn’t realize at first that you had to deflect the tongue — so I just kept chasing the frog instead. |
| Oct 8 12:57:39 | 7m 42s | Space Cleaner | ♥ 1 | It’s a pretty fun little game — though holding down the mouse button for too long gets a bit tiring. Other than that, it’s quite enjoyable; I got a bit hooked :) |
| Oct 8 13:08:28 | 10m 49s | Sword collector | ♥ 1 | The idea is great, but I couldn’t beat the boss — I either run out of swords or HP :( He’s a bit too tough for me. |
| Oct 8 13:12:58 | 4m 30s | Crown and Taxes | ♥ 1 | This is a pretty popular game genre — overall, it looks nice, but it doesn’t play very comfortably. It’s missing some kind of images or icons for the choices so you can roughly understand what they affect. Also, the choices blend together, and sometimes you have to pick them in different directions — sometimes in a row, sometimes in a column. Another thing — you can click multiple times, and the stats keep changing even when there’s no text. |
| Oct 8 13:20:25 | 7m 27s | Space Ore Collector | ♥ 2 | That turned out to be a fun game! It’s just missing some kind of resource radar or something similar — I flew upward and there were no resources at all, while there was a whole bunch below. It would also be nice to add something to do inside buildings while waiting out the storm. |
| Oct 8 13:24:09 | 3m 44s | --- | ♥ 0 | I took 3 photos, but I was only allowed to sell two. Overall, I think it’s a rather strange interpretation of the theme — fitting, but kind of stretching it =D |
| Oct 8 13:32:42 | 8m 33s | Claim thy Land | ♥ 3 | This game reminded me of the board game Cartographers! It looks and plays really well, though the talking old man got a bit annoying at first :) I’d really love to see how the game develops in the future — adding it to my favorites! |
| Oct 8 15:49:51 | 2h 17m | Collect or DIcE | ♥ 2 | That was pretty simple, but I felt bad for the angel :( Overall, nicely done. |
| Oct 8 15:53:51 | 4m 00s | Tiny Expeditions | ♥ 0 | Cute little game about a duck :) But the grass gets in the way when trying to run and catch butterflies! |
| Oct 8 16:13:31 | 19m 40s | Relic Seekers | ♥ 1 | I only managed to find 4 of them (need a guide on how to finish =D). Overall, it’s atmospheric, but there’s too little space to hide from the eye. |
| Oct 8 16:31:03 | 17m 32s | Space Cleaners! | ♥ 2 | It looks pretty cool, but I have a few notes: Why do you have to go inside every time to dump the trash? It would make more sense to do that outside. Oxygen doesn’t seem to deplete. When opening the menu, the mouse cursor stays visible on the screen. The task bar showing how much to collect includes what you already have — it’d be nice if the current amount were shown in a different color. Why do you have to keep pressing E to pick things up in space? You also have to catch them with the rope first — it’s not very convenient. And I don’t really get why there are two ropes at once. |
| Oct 8 16:36:18 | 5m 15s | Part Collector | ♥ 1 | Overall, it’s a fun vampire survivor-style game, though it definitely needs some refinement — adding more weapons and a meta-progression system would make it much more engaging! |
| Oct 8 16:41:16 | 4m 58s | Fair Trade | ♥ 3 | Hmm, that’s a cool concept — I also like the atmosphere! There’s definitely potential here to turn it into something really interesting later on. |
| Oct 8 16:47:33 | 6m 17s | Circus Puppet Theater | ♥ 2 | Fun little game! Though it wasn’t immediately obvious that you needed to gather someone — the gathering spot didn’t highlight until you got close. If the gathering points were placed directly on the arena, it would’ve been a bit clearer :) |
| Oct 8 16:58:06 | 10m 33s | body, birds, drop | ♥ 1 | My head started spinning, but I managed to fill up the HP bar — now everything in front of my eyes is moving upward... Hopefully it’ll pass xD As for the game — I think it’s a bit too easy. It could use some variety with different boosters, and maybe change the background so it’s not so harsh on the eyes.photo_2025-10-08_19-57-40.jpg |
| Oct 8 17:07:51 | 9m 45s | Confidential Information Collector | ♥ 1 | I got stuck on the second level mini-game after clearing the first one. Overall, I really like games like this, but I feel the mini-game doesn’t quite fit here. It would be better to add more misleading clues instead — or make the mini-games a separate story branch where you can uncover some extra interesting information. |
| Oct 8 17:21:05 | 13m 14s | The choice is yours, Orc! | ♥ 0 | I didn’t really understand what was going on — I made a happy one, the wheel landed on a sad one, but I still won. It would’ve been more fun if we compared eyes, nose, and mouth separately, plus kept a win counter. |
| Oct 8 17:31:38 | 10m 33s | DEBT? DECLINED. COLLECTORS? DEFLECTED. MY BALCONY? A BASTION. | ♥ 2 | Destroying a plane with bottles — that’s a new experience for me =D Overall, it’s pretty fun, though I still don’t understand what the Jack Daniel’s bottle does :) |
| Oct 8 17:48:09 | 16m 31s | Fly Collector | ♥ 1 | The idea is clear, but unfortunately the bugs don’t get picked up :( and the light doesn’t turn off — though I think it was supposed to. |
| Oct 8 17:55:02 | 6m 53s | Antlector | ♥ 2 | That’s an unusual mechanic — and it’s a nice touch that all the fallen bugs were given names :) |
| Oct 8 18:02:48 | 7m 46s | Cat & Swords | ♥ 0 | A simple yet brilliant idea :) All that’s left is to add auto-battle, and it’ll make for a great clicker! |
| Oct 8 18:16:45 | 13m 57s | Black Friday OFF 99.9999999999999% | ♥ 3 | Interesting concept, but toward the end I kept getting beaten up a lot — is there any way to hide from the other customers? |
| Oct 8 18:21:08 | 4m 23s | The Witch Chef | ♥ 1 | I made the main dishes, but after that I couldn’t figure out how to mix things or whether there’s any kind of hint system. I tried different combinations, but nothing worked :( The visuals are really nice though! |
| Oct 8 18:31:39 | 10m 31s | ROT | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun concept overall — even if it doesn’t go beyond the jam, it still hits me right in my developer heart :) |
| Oct 8 22:24:58 | 3h 53m | Depth Scan | ♥ 3 | Pretty fun and moderately challenging game — I only managed to beat it on my second try. Too bad you can’t shoot at the tentacles, and I wish the footsteps slightly revealed the area ahead since they make sound anyway. |
| Oct 9 13:19:33 | 14h 54m | The Strongest Army Is Already Dead | ♥ 2 | Pretty fun, but at first I didn’t realize where the currency you use for summoning comes from — and I also didn’t understand that you have to collect it from defeated ones in the collection. |
| Oct 9 13:48:30 | 28m 57s | Quit Stalin | ♥ 1 | All I can say is — that was weird XD |
| Oct 9 14:00:44 | 12m 14s | Afterlife Debt Collector | ♥ 1 | Cool idea, I liked it :) You could think about adding more variety to the puzzles, but overall it’s already quite good! |
| Oct 9 14:16:42 | 15m 58s | Corpse Collector | ♥ 1 | Pretty strange game — though I do love collecting tiles :) Overall, not bad! |
| Oct 9 14:46:15 | 29m 33s | Hex to the Max | ♥ 5 | That was a fun experience, but the balance definitely needs some work. Right now, the strategy of multiplying a single tile to the maximum works perfectly — everything else can just be placed around the edges. |
| Oct 9 15:43:07 | 56m 52s | Holy Eggs | ♥ 1 | That’s a really strange one ) |
| Oct 9 15:57:53 | 14m 46s | Mamudo | ♥ 3 | Okay overall it’s fine, but I’d like to see more alchemy and less running around for ingredients. |
| Oct 11 21:33:04 | 53h 35m | Loot Lagoon | ♥ 2 | I really liked it! Keep it up! The only issue was that the hint didn’t show up when the timer was extended. The tentacles really got on my nerves, stealing the crystals from the ship =D |
| Oct 11 21:51:19 | 18m 15s | Runestone Alchemist | ♥ 0 | I collected all the runes, but I don’t understand what’s supposed to happen next :) Overall, it’s a fun puzzle — I really enjoyed figuring out the stone connection patterns. |
| Oct 11 21:55:18 | 3m 59s | LudicrousOafishMagpie | ♥ 1 | I got the general idea of the game, but the sound was terrible :( |
| Oct 11 21:59:54 | 4m 36s | HATSTACK | ♥ 2 | Pretty fun game :) It’s just missing some kind of dash or ability to push away the crowding people around you. |
| Oct 11 22:27:33 | 27m 39s | Fire Fuel | ♥ 2 | Fun little game, I liked it :) I didn’t realize at first that I was running out of time, and it’s not entirely clear what exactly we’re collecting — but it still turned out great! |
| Oct 11 22:40:59 | 13m 26s | ASTRO JAMS | ♥ 0 | Cool idea — collecting the sounds of space is awesome! But I think the flying speed feels too slow when you’re drifting through empty space, and it’d be great to get power-ups from defeated enemies. |
| Oct 11 23:03:22 | 22m 23s | Gnalgamation | ♥ 0 | That was fun, but at first I didn’t realize that the cards could be used — and when I finally did, one of them somehow broke my controls and I couldn’t move anymore. |
| Oct 11 23:26:33 | 23m 11s | La kolektanto | ♥ 1 | Pretty fun, but there aren’t many upgrades. It would be more interesting if there were items that took away money when collected! Or you could add an incremental aspect — letting players buy and upgrade the falling items! |
| Oct 12 10:40:00 | 11h 13m | A Trip in the Woods | ♥ 2 | Pretty fun idea — I liked it :) I’d add a stage for checking the mushroom instead of giving the list of which ones to collect right away. |
| Oct 12 10:46:44 | 6m 44s | Cawlector | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea! But the seed selection could use a bit more variety — for example, it would be nice if you could change their color. |
| Oct 12 10:55:27 | 8m 43s | Hollow Choir | ♥ 2 | Very cool atmosphere, and the game is interesting — but it really needs a book with ingredients so you can tell what they look like. The spider, doll, and feathers are clear enough, but the plants are kind of confusing :) |
| Oct 12 11:14:02 | 18m 35s | LOOKING FOR THE GOOD STUFF | ♥ 3 | Great atmospheric game! The only thing missing is a map that reveals itself as you explore — just to have some idea of where you haven’t been yet. I spent half an hour running around looking for the cookie =D |
| Oct 12 11:28:36 | 14m 34s | Dinging da dung ! | ♥ 1 | Pretty tricky puzzle — the half-step movements make it really challenging, like you’re solving several puzzles at once! |
| Oct 12 11:36:32 | 7m 56s | #1 Card Collector | ♥ 2 | Pretty fun — it reminded me of The Stanley Parable! Too bad you can’t escape with the cards =D And it’s a pity the cards don’t give bonuses like extra coin gain, faster button recharge, or increased movement speed to collect coins more quickly. |
