| Apr 22 21:38:59 | Semaphoria | ♥ 1 | Ha, another semaphore entry! Although being a different semaphore system it seems. Fun fact: just after publishing my LD entry, I considered renaming my game to Semaphoria, but I noticed my url wouldn't change, and that's actually how I found your game, haha! Now, about your game: I am very bad at navigating in 3D games 😆 but once I got to the handles, putting the semaphore machine in the correct configuration was not so hard. In endless mode I noticed I could resend my answer many times for the same incoming signal. It would be nice to have some audio feedback on whether the signals I sent were good. Maybe also some visual feedback would be nice, to show which joints/levers where not in the right position? Nice jam entry, well done! | |
| Apr 22 21:51:06 | 12m 07s | Crash! The Great Choco Cookie Adventure | ♥ 1 | Very cute! But the game play felt a bit too random. The music is very nice! Did you make it yourself, or did you get it from elsewhere? (If you did not make it yourself, please opt-out for the Audio category.) Fun art style, and congrats on your first LD game! 😄 |
| Apr 22 22:55:45 | 1h 04m | Hive and Honey Horticulture | ♥ 2 | So cute and colorful! It's very fun that I could change the color of almost everything in the shop 😄 At first I didn't find the first mini-game. Apparently I discarded the text balloons of these bees as not important, haha. The second mini game I only found much later even. They are cute mini games, but the honey collecting is not very challenging, and sometimes I only had to collect 6, because maybe the new ones spawned right under me? I liked the path following better (maybe that is where this game connects to the theme?). Sometimes tough, I ended up at the goal without wanting to, because the designated path was too close to it. In sidebar show, the arrows to change between tabs are very small. Also, I would have liked to be able to put more pots or flowers down at the same time, especially when I just bought a new table. Now I have to back to the shop every time. Nice selection of music for the game! Very chillll. And I really like the colorful art ❤️ As you mentioned above, sometimes the game freezes, but luckily it remembers my progress after refreshing 😄 👍 I played your game for quite long, like an hour or so! Congrats on your great entry 👏 Hive and Honey.png |
| Apr 23 12:09:57 | 13h 14m | Pardon my Alienese | ♥ 1 | Haha, that was a funny game! At some point not only my brain was full with the rules, but also the cheat sheet. Also, the subtitles were covering it. I think it would have been nice to put the subtitles between the screen and the cheat sheet + controls at the bottom, with more space for the rules. ;) I replayed it, and noticed that the rules were different this time, nice! I also enjoyed all the gestures, especially the dab 😆 With the green button, I would have enjoyed if it gave me a little bit more time to think for myself if I should press a button. :) Cool sound track 👍 |
| Apr 23 12:53:24 | 43m 27s | Signal Dungeon | ♥ 1 | Fun game! I didn't like that I had to completely restart the game if I ran out of lives. I would have liked to feel freer to explore, and always return to the latest checkpoint. I would like to be able to climb the rope (btw, it's quite a stiff rope, morelike a rod 😉), like I can climb the ladder. I like that I can adjust the music and SFX levels, but when I tried to lower the SFX sounds (because the walking sound is too harsh for me), even at 0 it was too loud ;) Also, I had to change the settings every time I restarted the game. The music is fine, but sometimes it stopped for a while. I got stuck at the rotating saws, so I tried the patched version that you mentioned in your post, but that in that one the player movement is very slooooow. Then I read your comment above and waited for about 10 seconds, and got past it :) Later I almost gave up again, but I managed to finish the game! 😄 (And found an LD59 treasure 😉) The art style is cute, I am mainly missing a background. Well done! 👏 |
| Apr 23 13:51:32 | 58m 08s | Mating Call | ♥ 2 | The game looks so cute, but is also confusing. It starts already with being for much zoomed in, so I missed some of the animals at the start already. It was fun to make pairs, but I didn't really get what would be the good choice. I played several times, but still didn't fully get it. But I did manage to find the end, eventually! ld59matingcall.png The graphics and sounds are cute! 😄 |
| Apr 23 20:47:42 | 6h 56m | Cableman [a rhythm game] | ♥ 4 | Oooh that was so much fun! I was already dancing to the music even before I started haha. I enjoyed all the levels, especially the future levels and the bonus levels! Great concept and great execution. Cableman2.png |
| Apr 23 21:23:21 | 35m 39s | Signal Steve | ♥ 2 | Interesting puzzle game! Maybe there was a little too much of walking around needed. At the third level, I noticed the green and red lights above the signal. In the fourth level I got a bit bored by the puzzles and all the walking around. But I pushed through and found the end of the game. 😄 Nice clean graphics, a happy Steve in a gray environment. ;) I like the beat of the music, but the other noises are a bit repetitive and harsh, but they fit to the computer/signal theme. 😉 Very clever game idea! 👏 |
| Apr 24 11:52:07 | 14h 28m | Jim's Quest for Birthday present | ♥ 2 | I like that you can buy more luck 😆 So I spent most of my money on that! I enjoyed playing your game. Nice introduction to the concept of the game with the drawings at the start. The music is very nice and chill. The graphics and animations are very cute. Overall, very well done! 👏 |
| Apr 24 12:16:31 | 24m 24s | Mixed Signals | ♥ 2 | Ha, fun idea! It was a bit awkward to press both up and down at the same time. On my first try I got 6729, but after a few tries, using both hands, I got to: mixedsignals.png Hard mode was also fun! 😆 I got to 4092. Some faces were definitely easier to read than others, haha. It was fun how the music went faster and faster, but I didn't really find a rhythm aspect other than that. Fun graphics, cool that you made so many different faces possible 😄 Music is nice too. Overall, well done! 👏 |
| Apr 24 22:19:15 | 10h 02m | Last Frequency | ♥ 2 | Moody, a bit mysterious, an adventure. Great! The minigame of getting the signal right was maybe too easy with the visual on the right. The audio was nice, but at first I thought it was produced by the game play, but after a while I concluded it was probably just the background track. 😄 Nice clean visuals. Well done! |
| Apr 25 17:59:22 | 19h 40m | Flag Fanatic | ♥ 1 | Oooh, another semaphore flag game! But as others have mentioned, it's way too hard. 😆 You have a picture here on this LD-page of all the flag-combinations, but it would have been nice to have this in-game too. And also start with shorter words. Not only do I have to decipher the letters, but also remember the letters. I would have liked to be able to type along while watching the flags. It would also have been nice to add an auto-focus to the place where you need to type, so that the player doesn't need to click it before typing. Sending the word with enter would also feel logical. With a couple of tries it did get a bit better, and while having the cheat sheet on one side and the game on the other, I got: flagfanatic.png After getting so far, I found out that the games stops if I click the other tab. If I would play like this, I would have as much time as I want to think 😄 |
| Apr 25 18:44:50 | 45m 28s | Smoke Show | ♥ 4 | Very cool game! It took me some time to understand how it worked, but it was really fun when I got the hang of it! Nice music to play along to. Would have been nice to see my scores for each sequence, to know which ones to try again, and to see which ones I've already done in general 😉 (Because I didn't play them in the order that they are listed) At first I was confused what the codes meant. Then I tried @kr4ft3r's code, and got 95.71%! Then I had some fun making up my own sequence, by iterating on my own code: AQAAAAAAAAADDQYGAD8APwA/ABUqFSoVMDAMDAMDPj07Ny8fKioqFRUVAAA4OAcHMBgMBgMAISESLS0SJxUNFScAISEzHh4zKBINEigAAAUKFCgAHj8ePx4M |
| Apr 26 00:32:46 | 5h 47m | signOS | ♥ 1 | I saw your game on GingyBeardyGuy's stream and immediately wanted to play! I really like the nesting of the signals and the puzzles you can make with it. Sometimes the solution was a bit fiddly, because the message was so limited in size, but I get that it was necessary to make the puzzles. I spend a lot of (fun!) time on your game. I wish the robots moved a bit faster. ;) In the Virgo level, I first got stuck, so I did the other levels. When I revisited this level, I had an idea how to start with it at least, but the game kept freezing at this point: ld59signOS.png I could not move anything anymore... Otherwise, I got so far! ld59signOS2.png Creat concept, nice pixel art, challenging puzzles: well done! 👏 ❤️ |
| Apr 30 11:35:06 | 107h 02m | Echo Chaser | ♥ 1 | That was a fun and mysterious adventure! Great entry 👏 |
| Apr 30 12:10:48 | 35m 42s | Good Boy | ♥ 1 | Cute, and fun mechanics! I love that there were some small sheep in spring, and all the fun sounds. The winter level could maybe have been a little bit more challenging. Great entry! 👏 |
| May 6 21:26:15 | 153h 15m | Gasp Away! | ♥ 1 | Ha, fun game! The itch page loaded a bit slow here, and a restart would break it. ("WebGL context lost, please reload the page") Would be fun to use blowing in the microphone as in input to the game 😆 |
| May 7 14:13:45 | 16h 47m | TWILIGHTHOUSE | ♥ 1 | Fun game! The choice of music and sound effects sets the mood. I like how the kraken covers its eyes 😆 The game works smoothly, and I like the light beam effect. I managed to finish the game on my first try. Awesome that you managed to implement a leaderboard, but since the game finishes when you save 10 boats, it seems weird to have the leaderboard sorted by longest time. |
| May 7 14:30:46 | 17m 01s | Pharos | ♥ 1 | I like how the music and sound effects set the mood. At some point I hear some morse, but I couldn't decipher it that quickly ;) Well done! |
