Apr 21 13:43:58 UPLiNK Defender ♥ 3 Overall pretty fun! I like the different unit types and it's cool to swarm around your mother ship. Small improvements could be made on the UI side: for me (at least in the beginning) it wasn't clear when I could buy upgrades (a sound or so indicating that it's fully charged could help a lot already!), and also because there are many other blue lines in the UI it's not immediately clear what is e.g. the health of the mothership and what is static. Good job!
Apr 25 15:53:20 98h 09m SIGNALITE ♥ 1 As others are saying, very nice entry! Enjoyed it from start to finish and completed all levels. The graphics are very clean as well! A minor thing (I'm being really picky now because I enjoyed it otherwise) are the radio towers that are placed on the planet surface. As they snap to the surface when being placed, it would be great if the connections to other signal sources would also show to connect to the surface during placement, and not to the cursor position. Otherwise I found it hard to place them in the optimal distance. But all in all, amazing and impressive game!
Apr 26 15:45:29 23h 52m Null Signal ♥ 1 Extremely cool idea but also extremely high difficulty at the beginning. I tried around for ten minutes but then quit because I was frustrated. Love the overall mechanics and the effect of platforms disappearing!
Apr 26 15:55:30 10m 01s THE HORSE WE MADE ♥ 2 I think this game has a lot of potential! I love the laser scans (is that how you made it?) and the overall chaos. I first couldn't figure out that you need to press the initial letters to progress (I was typing the whole word which somehow didn't work + it's also confusing that the first stage is "D" and WASD includes D already), but after reading the description here it was fine.
Apr 26 16:03:21 7m 51s Insecure WiFi ♥ 0 Congrats on your first entry! Solid gameplay, graphics and sounds.
Apr 26 16:22:47 19m 26s Artificial Invaders ♥ 1 Love the story! And the gameplay and overall mood fits it perfectly.
Apr 26 16:42:25 19m 38s LoS: Linked ♥ 1 I also really liked this concept and if you do continue working on this see a lot of potential: building more stuff, upgrades, bigger map and more to explore!
Apr 26 20:18:07 3h 35m transmission.nil ♥ 1 Loved the screen effects (graphics + sound) and overall feel!
Apr 26 20:26:59 8m 52s Defying Fate ♥ 1 I loved the ending, haha! Also the stories were very cute as well as the illustrations. Good job!
Apr 26 20:30:14 3m 15s HeliRescue ♥ 1 Sweet little game
Apr 27 11:57:00 15h 26m Fallen Ties ♥ 1 Wow the atmosphere in this one is spot on! Love the voice lines, overall art style, the details like the wine glasses and the funny dancing people.
Apr 29 21:01:30 57h 04m Tarmac ♥ 0 Love that you can play this game on your phone! It was pretty challenging, but was happy when I completed the level. Also I love the intro sequence!
Apr 29 21:16:00 14m 30s Status - It's you. ♥ 1 Yey I escaped! I really liked this concept, and the little details like the monster in front of the door! It makes it very believable why I don't want to go out explore myself but have to send the drones instead! As others have mentioned, the direction buttons shuffling around was a bit frustrating, but didn't ruin the experience... I had a good time playing this one!
Apr 29 21:46:55 30m 55s Robo Phone Home ♥ 2 The level of polish is unreal! Great entry, great pixel art, great overall feel, I think this concept could also be extended very well. Personally, I didn't like the moving mirrors so much as they were quite unpredictable and a bit frustrating, but generally, great concept and execution.
Apr 29 21:52:28 5m 33s Sound Signals ♥ 1 I brought some sound and it made both the blue entity as well as myself happy! Really cool concept, and well composed music. I waited a bit each time to see how the music continues playing before going into the next level. Would also be cool if the sounds of different levels somehow stacked or such.
May 1 09:31:11 35h 38m Sierra 1-1 ♥ 1 I really like the overall style and feeling. It was almost creepy when suddenly a second droid appeared (I questioned whether or not this was a multiplayer game and that was another player!) But then the game suddenly ended (I reached the "bad ending")? Not sure if there are other endings? Or whether I was doing something wrong, I didn't feel like I had many choices (did I accidentally send a red signal, I wasn't sure?). I would've loved to see how the story progresses.
May 1 11:21:14 1h 50m Formation Tactics: Line Breaker ♥ 1 Very fun! victory.jpg
May 2 11:11:23 23h 50m Junction Keeper ♥ 1 Hey, this is basically the same concept that I had in mind for my game (I'm surprised not more people interpreted signals as train signal!) - so very interesting and well executed! I liked your graphics, story bits and especially the music getting faster as you fast-forwarded. As for game play, I think it works generally, but overall it felt a bit overwhelming and to me it seemed to depend a lot on luck whether you're doing alright or not. In fact, I was able to pass the first two levels without even setting any signal :D Overall, very nice entry!
May 2 11:19:32 8m 09s Mixed Signals ♥ 1 Wow very mathsy! I liked it, and very well polish and executed (at least in the version that I played). The difficulty spikes when the harmonics are added, it took me some tries but overall I still succeeded so that made me happy. Also good that you added the "skip" button, otherwise it can be frustrating. What's a bit odd though is that it doesn't skip automatically, so you have to click it yourself or otherwise you'll fail.
May 2 13:27:54 2h 08m The Last Frequency ♥ 1 Nice little episode of a bigger story!
May 3 21:19:51 31h 51m Saving Private Morse ♥ 1 Very good idea and well executed! I liked the graphics a lot, and also the controls felt smooth and the controls worked really well independently of how fast I was sending the morse code. The only thing is that it's quite an unforgiving game, given that there are no checkpoints.
May 3 21:32:04 12m 13s Signal Walk ♥ 1 I've completed all levels till number 10, and it was very fun! Great submission!
May 4 19:12:12 21h 40m Apollo's Gift ♥ 1 I tried to play this but I can't seem to figure it out! I right-clicked on the stones, and it zooms in, but I can't hear anything. How do I know which stones are the correct ones to bless or curse? Would love to know and I'll give it another shot! The concept looks pretty fun so far!
May 4 19:28:53 16m 41s Lighthouse Diaries ♥ 1 Excellent submission! I loved the outro song, the voice lines, the graphics, the story, the gameplay... nothing negative I can really say about this game other than that I would love to see the story progress and play more levels! EDIT: Update an hour and a half later -- still vibing to the credits and clicking repeat every time they run out
May 4 21:38:08 2h 09m Natural Luck ♥ 2 I failed at round 15. This was a pretty fun gambling game! I loved the characters, they are so cute, and overall the polish like small tooltips and clear explanations.
May 4 21:44:50 6m 42s Almost the Same ♥ 3 That was a super unique experience and kudos for executing this idea so well!
May 4 22:07:53 23m 03s Bad Signal ♥ 0 Really sweet game. Well balanced and fun to play, I liked also having these different stages and the idea that you need to hover over the building to collect the resources.
May 5 18:56:32 20h 48m Bird Man Signal ♥ 1 Good job! Kudos also for supporting phone screen sizes!
May 6 19:02:23 24h 05m Points ♥ 1 Had a very good time playing this one! Then after three tries I got fed up on level 3 (20 is a lot!! and I failed two times with only 5 left 😢 )... but anyway, really nice; also with the short tutorial and the simple but fitting music. Only thing I had trouble with some times is that I couldn't directly tell the position of a switch, maybe a clearer indicator would've been helpful. BTW, if you're interested in this kind of games, go also give my game a try, it's using a very similar concept (I feel like your game is more fleshed out though)
May 7 18:38:42 23h 36m Routine Mission ♥ 1 This was really unique and I enjoyed it a lot. Great mood, and albeit simple, the small interactions were also a nice touch. Also the choice in the ending!
May 7 18:43:21 4m 39s Sparkle Sweeper ♥ 1 Pretty unique idea! Works well and the game is very polished too, good job! Got to score 1206!
