Apr 21 14:35:01		Commotion Conductor	♥ 2	Is it wrong that I signal them poorly just to see how ~~fantastic~~ bad of a rapid disassembly I can engineer? 🤔 This is a delightful interpretation of the challenge, and a wonderful game. My one point of feedback: I found myself clicking on the arrows on the tracks themselves and getting frustrated...until I realized all the signals off to the side of the tracks were interactive.
Apr 22 02:47:35	12h 12m	Kuiper Space Rescue	♥ 1	The graphics, the movement, and the radar mechanic - in other words, the whole package - are just _so_ satisfying. I really appreciate the restricted color palette and the fun post-processing. I enjoyed (and struggled) finding the right balance between speed and not colliding with objects. Fantastic work.
Apr 22 22:49:09	20h 01m	While You Were Here	♥ 1	I really enjoyed the concept of signaling a pet/friend/golem/nature spirit--like some other reviewers mentioned, I didn't realize you could stand _on_ the golem to get it to do different behaviors. Once I realized that, it really broadened the scope of the kinds of puzzles I could solve. It's a simple mechanic, and well executed! Also, pretty art. ❤️
Apr 22 22:53:43	4m 34s	Avalanche	♥ 1	This game nails the idea of "moody", and fits the jam theme really well. I loved having to listen to signal really closely to find my way to survivors--I feel like most games default to visual signals, and it's been a while since I've had to use a different sense (like sound) to engage with a core mechanic. Also, I didn't find it lonely at all...at least, not in an undeserved way. Like I said, super moody, super delightful.
Apr 23 14:31:36	15h 37m	Link the Shrink	♥ 1	This entry feels so polished--I'd expect to see something like it on an app store (actually, it's prettier than most titles I find on an app store or steam...). The gameplay loop did initially confuse me, but I enjoyed seeing what I'd get next in my deck as I expanded my territory--and the reach of my signal.
Apr 23 15:18:57	47m 21s	Fellowship of the Signal Fire	♥ 1	This game was addictive; it was so satisfying watching the signal propagate from tower to tower. A fantastic interpretation of the theme. I was a little surprised that signals could only be sent from the main citadel, and that you couldn't chain cities together--but that did add an interesting layer of difficulty.
Apr 23 15:29:07	10m 10s	Hive and Honey Horticulture	♥ 2	This is such a polished, cute, and fun game! Although I struggled to find its connection to the theme, I really enjoyed playing it. Well done. ❤️
Apr 24 01:41:42	10h 12m	Out of Signal RTS	♥ 1	I'm blown away that this game is a Compo entry! I loved the atmosphere, art style, and unique take on the signal concept--and the RTS genre as a whole. The one thing that confused me during gameplay was the left/right click behavior. I admittedly don't play many RTS, so these controls might be standard...they just confused me. 🙈
Apr 25 12:46:21	35h 04m	Small Among Storms	♥ 3	The atmosphere on this one was so beautiful and moody--I love it. The gameplay was incredibly challenging for me, but I'm also not an avid platformer...
Apr 25 12:49:15	2m 54s	Signal Keeper	♥ 1	The mini games confused me, but I adored the art style and the general atmosphere of the game--a fantastic first game jam entry!
Apr 25 12:53:02	3m 47s	Sine Factory	♥ 1	This is the most literal interpretation of the theme I've seen, and I _absolutely_ love it. I feel like this is the kind of concept that, with a teensy bit of polish, could be turned into a full title. I enjoyed that you needed to put a literal oscilloscope on the grid to see your generated waveforms--though I wonder if some non-technical players might benefit from a brief tutorial or hint that it's worth using. Delightful work!
Apr 25 14:13:56	1h 20m	SpaceRider	♥ 1	This is the trippiest game I've played so far during LD59! I love the very literal interpretation of riding a sine wave. My one feedback is that the controls didn't _feel_ responsive (they felt like they lagged very far behind)...though perhaps that is my own lack of skill coming through...
Apr 25 14:16:26	2m 30s	remote vroom vroom	♥ 1	As a roboticist, I really loved this take on the theme--you captured the pain and suffering of teleoperated hardware so, so well. 🙈 Fantastic job.
Apr 25 14:18:46	2m 20s	We Trust You Are Well	♥ 1	I normally don't go for games on the edge of psychological horror, but this one was _just_ creepy enough that I survived trying it. The writing was delightfully creepy, and I really enjoyed the novel take on text-based gameplay that had me scanning through text--both literally and figuratively.
Apr 25 14:27:03	8m 17s	Alpine	♥ 1	I've seen some fantastic entries in this jam, yet this one is by far my favorite: The atmosphere, the music, and the core mechanical interpretation of the theme. It _feels_ like a complete game--and even has story and a narrative! Also, for some reason I have a weird soft spot and association for signals and mountains. Great job.
Apr 25 14:42:32	15m 29s	Cosmic Relay	♥ 1	Once I figured out why outputs were getting deactivated and started tuning into different frequencies, I really started enjoying this game. What a fun--if not overwhelming--gameplay loop.
Apr 25 14:52:55	10m 23s	DIG_POD	♥ 1	I totally missed that "collect resources" also meant "mine". Once I figured out, I fell in love with the game: The resource collection animation alone is so mesmerizing, but the combat and particle system are equally delightful. Great work!
Apr 28 17:11:44	74h 18m	Cell-o-Vision	♥ 0	What a fantastic first entry in Ludum Dare! I really enjoyed the graphics, sound, and overall vibe. The core gameplay loop was enthralling once I got into it, but I couldn't help but wonder: What's the point of scouts? What causes enemies to spawn? Is it the scouts? I was never able to answer these questions through gameplay, so I wonder if some kind of tutorial would help answer them more clearly. Overall, though, great work.
