| Oct 6 18:04:15 | Collecting Dust | ♥ 1 | I'll echo what a lot of people mentioned here: the premise was great, the graphics were nice and cohesive, but the gameplay was just way too difficult! It seemed like roombas would spawn wherever they liked and bounced off walls in just a way to home in on a very dusty piece of furniture to reset any and all progress I'd made thus far. I think slowing the game down a bit, or better telegraphing where the roombas are going to move, would make the game a lot less frustrating to play | |
| Oct 6 18:34:25 | 30m 10s | Stamp Collecting on Planet Q | ♥ 2 | Amazing game! I love the charming aesthetic to the art and music, and the core mechanic is really intuitive and fun to work with. I'm not too good with puzzle games, so I didn't get to finish it, but it was fun enough that I never felt frustrated with the game. |
| Oct 6 18:46:00 | 11m 35s | snake-collector | ♥ 1 | Very impressive game! People are talking a lot about the switch from 2D to 3D but I was equally impressed by how the extra heads were added in. There were a lot of great instances where you showed, not told, the player what to do and I think that works well to invite the player in to learn more. I just wish there was more to the gameplay itself and what to actually do once you've gotten all three heads. |
| Oct 6 19:00:49 | 14m 49s | GunShift | ♥ 1 | Very fun game! The minimalist graphics and oddly calming music made a nice and interesting contrast that somehow felt really cohesive. It was fun finding and experimenting with all the different powers, but I think the difficulty curve needs some adjustment. My first few rounds I just got hammered with a lot of difficult-to-avoid lasers, but once I picked up the powerup that healed on dashes and a free dash once I was out of ammo, I was practically invincible. |
| Oct 7 18:40:37 | 23h 39m | What is to be done? | ♥ 1 | The art style is definitely a big draw to your game! The vibes are very trippy and match the esoteric nature of both the theme of the game and the offbeat gameplay itself. Sadly, I could only find 4 of the 5 organs and a "Truth" that I couldn't seem to use, so I couldn't finish the game. My only complaint comes from how you pick things up and hold them. It's understandable that Q and E map onto left and right mouse respectively, but I use E as main pickup but LEFT mouse as main action, so there's a bit of a disconnect there. |
| Oct 7 19:31:03 | 50m 26s | Part Collector | ♥ 1 | Very fun bullet heaven! Definitely getting a lot of Brotato vibes from this one and had a lot of fun playing it. I just wish there was a bit more variety to the weapons and the builds. And correct me if I'm wrong, but spending money on the weapons doesn't make them more effective, it just changes which weapon they are? That seems a bit counter-intuitive: spending thousands of points and ending up with the same weapon you started with |
| Oct 8 14:38:45 | 19h 07m | Greg gathers ghosts because that's what he loves the most | ♥ 2 | Amazing game! Loved the graphics and the sense of humour. The gameplay felt really smooth and polished, and the difficulty fell right on the perfect edge between being too hard and not hard enough. Would have loved to see the endless mode! |
| Oct 24 14:15:40 | 383h 36m | Super Tower Bros | ♥ 1 | What a nice mix of tower defense, bullet heaven, and Super Crate Box! Having running powerups that required you use the correct tower was a really smart addition that guided you towards using all the towers instead of just the same one (though I mostly stuck to the green one - the rapid attack speed more than made up for it lack of power). I got to the boss fight but I unfortunately hadn't leveled up enough to beat it, but I still had a lot of fun playing! |
