| Oct 18 09:12:39 | The Pink Operator | ♥ 1 | That's a nice little gem. Loved the Atari vibe of the graphics. And kudos for going with your own engine 😉 | |
| Oct 18 09:24:07 | 11m 28s | Bone Collector | ♥ 1 | Even though you are saying this is not as polished as you would have, it's still much more polished than most entries. You did an amazing job as usual. I am not a fan of dice-based games because they tend to rely too much on the RNG for my taste, but that's just me. I usually prefer skills vs randomness 😄 |
| Oct 18 09:31:07 | 7m 00s | Lepidopterology Extreme | ♥ 1 | It took me a bit to figure out you could combine the butterflies by throwing the jars 😄 Nicely done, it's really cute. You could probably improve the catching mechanic as it feels that sometime even though you are aiming correctly you won't catch the butterfly |
| Oct 18 09:36:40 | 5m 33s | Invasive Spectral Projectiles | ♥ 1 | This game is challenging for me. It's super nice and polished considered the time frame. Graphics and audio are top notch for this kind of game. Really well done! |
| Oct 18 09:43:56 | 7m 16s | Clean Line | ♥ 1 | Nice puzzles! The music fits the game perfectly. Just like someone else before me I was wondering why you have the limits on the number of pieces when you can actually pick them up while you go, but you already answered that 😉 |
| Oct 18 09:49:59 | 6m 03s | Hop, Skip, Jump | ♥ 1 | This is super impressive for just 5 hours into making it! You had a great idea for the mechanic of this nice little gem. And it's actually quite polished. Grats! |
| Oct 18 10:26:13 | 36m 14s | Gemwright | ♥ 1 | This is one of those games that could keep me hooked up for hours. Add save-game, some more variety, make it mobile and put it on the App Store, I would be the first one to buy it 😉 It really fits in the category of those games that you can play when you have 5 minutes spare and keep progressing. |
| Oct 18 10:30:37 | 4m 24s | Acorny Business | ♥ 1 | Nice graphics and overall mood. I felt the controls were a bit clunky. I do not know if you did that on purpose to make things harder or if the controls could really get some more love. Nice entry! 😄 |
| Oct 18 10:44:06 | 13m 29s | Nightfall | ♥ 2 | Super cool game, love the creepy vibes! 😉 It looks like the web version lags whenever something new is instantiated.. I guess that's the way godot handles instancing new objects for the first time, at least on the web version. I haven't yet tried the Windows one, will do. Great job! |
| Oct 18 11:11:21 | 27m 15s | Past Due | ♥ 1 | Simple and fun, perfect for LD. Very well done, I have been kind of getting addicted to it 😄 |
| Oct 18 13:20:48 | 2h 09m | The Collector | ♥ 1 | Good core mechanics and super nice graphics. It's quite challenging, but in a good sense. There's room for something that could last a long time. Well done as usual! 😉 |
| Oct 18 13:38:06 | 17m 18s | The Skitter Kit | ♥ 1 | It's adorable 😄 Love the graphics, audio, effects. It's soooo cute! The camera could use some love as sometimes it's hard to maneuver but not a deal breaker. The final round is a nice idea but it should have been more challenging. You can probably keep carrying the dog around the house for hours. It would have helped if the dog started getting smarter or faster, or both. Overall very nicely done! |
| Oct 18 13:46:26 | 8m 20s | The Cult-lector | ♥ 0 | The creepy atmosphere is super cool, I really dig the art style. I found the camera to have an odd angle, I would have preferred to be able to look around with more freedom. In the beginning it's quite hard to get to the right place. After a while it becomes a bit repetitive, though. It's quite weird playing as the "bad guy" but overall I enjoyed it 😏 |
| Oct 18 13:55:39 | 9m 13s | Cut to Pieces | ♥ 3 | Damn, what a nice game! The concept is awesome, super cool gameplay idea. It's fun and there is a whole story behind the game. I really enjoyed playing it. |
| Oct 18 14:13:03 | 17m 24s | Windows Explorer 2 | ♥ 0 | Again such a clever game. I love your "thinking outside the box" when you are making this kind of games. I would have loved some description for the upgrades you can buy. It's not really evident what they should do. Great work as usual |
| Oct 18 14:21:31 | 8m 28s | PhishScape | ♥ 0 | That's an interesting idea. At first I thought those other players were actual real players... until I engaged the conversation with them 😄 Very nice take on the theme. Well done! |
| Oct 18 14:27:39 | 6m 08s | Unholy Black Hole | ♥ 0 | Cool idea but the daemons are acting up in a way that is very hard to predict. They would probably need some love 😄 Nice entry! |
| Oct 18 14:34:18 | 6m 39s | Butterfly | ♥ 1 | Congrats for making a multiplayer game for the compo, that's quite a feat itself. Unfortunately I had no one joining with me when I played your game. Collecting the butterflies is pretty straightforward and the snake minigame is fun. I actually spent more time in the minigame than the actual game 😄 The urge to collect the butterflies is quite missing, though. It would have been a good idea to have something in the game that rewards when you collect the butterflies, otherwise it becomes pretty pointless after a while. Nonetheless congratulations on making this in such a short time frame |
| Oct 18 14:41:47 | 7m 29s | Enchanted Blackjack | ♥ 1 | Interesting idea even though I feel the theme is a bit stretched out here 😄 but I do get the "collecting card" behind that so all good 😉 It's unfortunate that you did not manage to add audio. I believe the graphics would have also loved one more art pass. Apart from that, the gameplay is solid and it's easy to pick-up as long as you know how blackjack works Grats! |
| Oct 18 14:47:04 | 5m 17s | Fend Shui | ♥ 0 | Very nice game! As a musician myself, I really dug the idea of having to move around guitars 😉 It could have helped to have the names of the rooms somewhere as a reference. When talking about the main bedroom I was quite unsure I was putting the guitars in the correct place. The challenges are good. Grats! |
| Oct 19 11:20:22 | 20h 33m | Tiles Collector | ♥ 0 | Let me say that I fail big time at games involving math. The idea is cool, I haven't seen anything like that so far so kudos for coming up with something original. It really gets too difficult for me, but again, that's just me. The minimalism and clean design is real nice. I would still have loved some chill-out background music to be there. I read you wanted players to choose their own background music, but some default theme would have been a nice addition. Overall I believe this is a solid game that could definitely be something to keep working on. I am sure out there there are plenty of players that enjoy fiddling with this kind of challenges |
| Oct 19 11:29:26 | 9m 04s | Patent Troll | ♥ 0 | It took me a bit to understand how my pixels would actually match those of the artist but then I got it. It's super cool that there is a story behind the game and the art is so cute! The music also matches the game atmosphere very well. Overall it's a solid game and I would say that it is also quite polished. Grats! |
| Oct 19 11:41:31 | 12m 05s | Underwater Salvage | ♥ 1 | This reminds me of ridiculous fishing 😄 It's quite polished, it's got an ending (not many compo entries manage to do that), the graphics fits the game. I had to raise the volume quite some notches to hear the background music (that sounds like white noise, is it intended to simulate the underwater atmosphere?) The gameplay mechanic is fun. You could probably turn this into a casual mobile game if you add more content and variety. Grats! |
| Oct 19 11:52:02 | 10m 31s | MoruMatrix | ♥ 1 | Original visuals for sure! The music is awesome and fits the game perfectly. It's definitely too flashing and hectic for me but I understand where this is coming from and that there are players that can beat this kind of game. To me even level 1 was way hard 😉 I believe it would have been helpful to get some in-game hints and tips about what the different entities on the screen do. Anyway a very solid game. Grats! |
| Oct 19 11:57:02 | 5m 00s | Webbed Up! | ♥ 2 | The bugs are just cute! 😄 The music fits the game very well. I enjoyed playing it, nice simple but challenging mechanic. And grats for making this mobile-friendly, too. Really nice entry |
| Oct 19 12:03:19 | 6m 17s | Raccoon Rumpus! | ♥ 2 | Nice idea! The animation of the raccoon jumping is just hilarious Some things that could be improved: - it really feels like the raccoon is sliding instead of walking. There is some timing mismatch between the walk animation and the speed at which it moves - the camera could use some love. Being able to see the raccoon from under its feet doesn't really help and actually makes things worse when you are in a rush to run away from the dog Overall it's a pretty nice entry, grats! |
| Oct 19 12:09:37 | 6m 18s | Moderately Exciting Tax Collecting | ♥ 1 | Car controls would need more love, I really felt stressed out while trying to get the car to do what I wanted 😄 The idea is interesting and I believe some music and audio effects would have added a lot to the game. The overall concept is cool! |
| Oct 19 12:16:27 | 6m 50s | Violet's Home | ♥ 2 | The art is super nice, kudos! You really did a great job there. But the game itself could be improved with just a few changes: - add some variation to the background music, it's too repetitive and it's also too loud compared to the sound effects - the platforming mechanic could really use some love. Making it more arcade-like would make a huge difference - adding some effects like your player character flashing when it hits the mushrooms before porting it back to the starting point would make it feel way more like a polished game - add some more challenges to make it more engaging. |
| Oct 19 12:20:59 | 4m 32s | I don't care who the IRS sends | ♥ 1 | That's a very fun game, loved it. Simple mechanics but great gameplay. I wish the game would pause while buying stuff, but maybe that's intentional to make you feel the urge to rush. Kudos! |
| Oct 19 12:27:03 | 6m 04s | Circus Puppet Theater | ♥ 1 | Simple and fun, I love the stacking mechanic, I did something similar with my game 😄 The art is incredibly nice and cute. I would have loved some music and sound effects, though, too bad you did not put them in. Some circus music would have been awesome to add to the atmosphere. |
| Oct 19 12:36:32 | 9m 29s | How (not) to kill your cat | ♥ 2 | The art is cute, nice music too. I had some issues with level 2 as I got stuck there and time didn't pass. The overall concept is cool, I wish I could get to the other levels. |
| Oct 19 12:43:49 | 7m 17s | Apple Basket | ♥ 2 | Grats for going compo. It's always a quite satisfying experience, isn't it? I think some more audio effects and animations would have improved the overall feeling of the game. Nonetheless it's a nice entry. |
| Oct 19 12:51:11 | 7m 22s | The Grand Aquarium | ♥ 1 | This is a nice entry, love the design of the fish. It's pretty addicting collecting the fishing and watching them grow in your tanks. I feel like some more variation would have been nice, but for a 2 days compo game this is pretty well polished gameplay-wise. Grats! |
| Oct 19 12:57:54 | 6m 43s | Collector's Cove | ♥ 1 | Just like someone else already pointed out, I would really like to enjoy this game but I am having a hard time understanding the mechanics. I understood you have to prepare your loadout (that should have been clearly mentioned inside the game and it would have helped if you were forced to do that before venturing into the rooms). But then it feels like you are roaming around those rooms, killing stuff and eventually dying. I don't see the progression or what I am actually collecting. I really believe the gameplay should have had more love 😉 |
| Oct 19 13:19:28 | 21m 34s | Letter Collector | ♥ 1 | Very good game, I really enjoyed the gameplay and it's well balanced. It's neither too easy nor impossible. Very well done. Although the art is simple, it still delivers. I would have liked some background music and sound effects, though |
| Oct 19 13:32:34 | 13m 06s | Chaotic Containers | ♥ 2 | The gameplay is fun and the music is nice. For some reason the music after a while stops playing. No idea why. The physics of the fruit is fun to play with! Sometimes the crate would get stuck or stop responding to the open/close command. Any idea why? |
| Oct 19 13:38:03 | 5m 29s | Fluster Fencing | ♥ 1 | Nice one! It becomse easy after you learn all the answers, though. It could have used some more variety to make it less obvious. Grats! |
| Oct 20 12:56:21 | 23h 18m | Human Coin Chicken Flower | ♥ 2 | It took me a while to understand that I have to give something back to avoid the king ruining the game for both. It would be interesting to know how the AI works because most of the time I was just wondering whether it is all random or if there is some strategy that can be anticipated but I didn't manage to grasp it. Although the graphics is simple, it delivers the idea of the game. I couldn't hear any music or sounds, I guess you just did not manage to put them in. It would have been nice to have them. Even simple sounds add a lot. |
