Apr 21 16:26:07 F(R)OG ♥ 2 The atmosphere hardcarries this game. And yet the puzzle elements are so simple yet relevant!!! The control disruption and chest attributes are so creative!!! Its nice to see that someone elses puzzle game could prosper in this three day desperation and I cant wait to consume more of your games!!1!
Apr 26 12:10:05 115h 43m Grzegorz The Watcher ♥ 2 It has a really engaging gameplay loop. I wish there was more 2d style art as that part was really funny to me. It would also be nice if the bases signals were alerted through a more audible sound effect but that would probably not even do much in the long run anyways, whilest losing part of the games charm. We also landed on a similar idea during our jam entry with waiting for microwave signals but for some reason we chose the puzzle game and burned out (literally). Its nice to see that the waiting idea had some potential after all! Very cool game (but please we need the post-jam horse mode update!!!)
Apr 26 12:20:35 10m 30s Signal Ryder ♥ 0 Its a cool concept. It just really gets boring after a while with no music or obstacles or any way to speed up if you missed a piece of data. The controls being hidden behind story was very confusing and it took me a while to get the mechanics without them being more obviously shoved into my face. The game still fun and very intricate though. It was just gets a little barren once youre halfway through.
Apr 26 12:54:47 34m 12s Shroomice ♥ 1 As a muscaria amanita adjacent being myself I do enjoy all the little details and mushroom puns put into this game. Its lightweight and humorous at times while also havin very serious moral complications baked into the story. On the other hand it... it... oh wait there is no negatives unless youre one of those weird individuals who dislikes reading! Great game, would annoy the yellow one again!
Apr 26 13:36:19 41m 32s Tiny Signal Lost ♥ 2 FLASH GAME VIBES? INCREDIBLE SOUND DESIGN? FUN PUZZLES (especially the last level)? BEAUTIFUL LORE? GRAPHICS THAT MAKE ME DROOL? SEQUEL POTENTIAL? REALLY FITTING THEME? BASIC PROOF THAT ONE OF OUR OLDER CONCEPTS COULDVE WORKED IF WE WENT WITH IT AND WERE ACTUALLY GOOD? MOBILE SUPPORT? Wh-wh-how. Just go and conquer the games industry already, you people are amazing.
Apr 26 13:48:44 12m 25s Are We Zer Yet? ♥ 1 Its a short but sweet title with functional gameplay and really cool art (trans ice cream included). It would be cool if there was a track while transporting the aliens and if the meteor slowboxes were smaller but thats probably nitpicking. For a first entry this is very solid and I hope to see more from you individuals. hooray
Apr 26 14:00:15 11m 31s Signal Hunter ♥ 1 At the end of the day you can run through the whole thing and even then theres intense moments! Even if theres no sound i feel like this game has one of the most fun gameplay loops of all the compo entries and ill probably end up replaying it several times for that. Good job, mate, you made short, fun, game.
Apr 26 15:33:13 1h 32m SIGNAL:D ♥ 0 Hyper-creative. The camera aspect is really fun to mess around with. I wish there was a little less guidance like not being told that someone having a blast but instead reading about the species and evaluating their emotions based on that but at the end of the day this is a damn good jam entry, holy molly. Face technology!? Thats insane! Intricate alien design!!? Thats incredible! Your second ludum entry!!!? Thats so interesting! You people have a knack for this, truly!
Apr 26 15:45:18 12m 05s Signal Mage ♥ 1 While I dont quite get the good and the evil (probably an unused mechanic), i am simply in love with the worldbuilding! The environments (the fossil especially) are great. The music slaps even 15 minutes in. The characters are all so charming and have little baby sprites that jump around so yippiely. I played though the game four times just to see every little interaction and every ending. It is that humorous! Your artist seriously deserves a raise, dude. Go feed them some butterflies right now!
Apr 26 16:12:50 27m 32s Drop da Myc ♥ 1 FUNGUS SPOTTED!!! Anyways this is such great game im actually at a loss right now. Theres a unique artstyle, a unique concept, fellow Kevin Mcleod enjoyer, really good story implication, and an assortment of highly complex puzzles which I could have never thought of. And the fact that one person made this is jaw-dropping. Its truly beautyful. Absolute cinema!
Apr 26 16:28:56 16m 06s Dorm Manager ♥ 0 Cool use of the theme. Originally I thought it was just going to be a time management puzzle game but it turned much more complex very fast. Its a cool idea but played upon very strangely. The art is nice. The gameplay is easy to understand. The concept seems interesting. I just find the gameplay loop neutrally executed, and thats better than our game! Very cool entry
Apr 26 16:44:49 15m 53s Signal Tower Delivery ♥ 0 Its a nice little puzzle game. Id say that the two modes are not really neccessary and that the circle is too powerful but otherwise it has a perfect gameplay loop and it really fits the theme. The atmosphere in all of its minimalsm is very nice and does not require music to feel engaging. Cozy.
Apr 26 17:14:55 30m 06s Artificial Invaders ♥ 1 Oozing with charm, this game. Its really fun and creative, the gameplay, the story, the simple music, the manmade sfx. I only wish there was some kind of easier mode but I guess that level three is meant to be nearly impossible.
Apr 26 17:55:34 40m 39s Signal Girl ♥ 1 You can use your power for good, **David**! Anyways really cool stealth aspect but the stupidella-esque character kind of carries the whole game sadly.
Apr 30 14:12:38 92h 17m Trot in the Poly-verse ♥ 0 I dont know if this was your goal but its amazing how enraging youve made this whole experience. The black number on the black background, the extremely slow movement, the fact that you never know how many signals youll need, the hyper sensitive no friction floor, level two, the eternal death animation, and the music resetting upon every death. The fact that you as one person made this is amaing. We also thought of making something with doom directional faces during planning but it was supposedely "too hard". This game is very technically stable. I just wish it had slightly more polish.
