| Oct 20 09:57:32 | Siege Engineers | ♥ 2 | This was such a great entry! Very nice use of the theme! All the mechanics, the UI and the instructional texts were quite a lot to take in at first so it took me a while to figure everything out, but after that the game was super enjoyable and interesting. I had some frustrations with the engineers, though. It seems that work was assigned somewhat randomly (or maybe with a rotation?) so quite often eg. a bridge building task would be assigned to the furthest-away engineer and he couldn't make it to the site in time and I would lose all my soldiers. It's especially bad since by default the engineers would hang around at the end of the soldier column. In that sense it was kinda counter-productive to hire too many engineers. Also the timing for some sections is very tight. Especially in the beginning with a single engineer you kinda need to immediately pause the game and assign all the work right away. Combined with all the information you need to take in at first, I needed to retry the very first section quite a few times. These are minor gripes, though. The bridge building mechanics work really well and overall the entry is super solid! | |
| Oct 20 11:04:31 | 1h 06m | The Owl Master's Kiln | ♥ 1 | This was such a chill game. The art is great! I didn't quite get the trimming mechanic, but I guess it wasn't even needed in the game. Great entry! |
| Oct 20 11:35:27 | 30m 56s | Bonk to the Future | ♥ 2 | This was fun! Cruising around with full throttle and bouncing all over the place. Bouncing so heavily from the curbs was very pinball-y but I suppose that's totally by design. It took me a while to figure out what to do after collecting all the items but I figured it out in the end. |
| Oct 20 12:01:18 | 25m 51s | Melody Machinations | ♥ 1 | Great entry! The visuals are stunning! I felt like the outcome of a run was very random. Sometimes the flight organette just wouldn't give out any letters in the first 5 or so sections and the run was doomed from the start. I also failed once with max upgrades even when hitting all the letters in the flight organette and keeping the voltage regulator in the green for the whole duration. The flight organette just wouldn't give me any letters for such a long while that I crashed. 😅 Overall it was still a super nice and enjoyable entry. 😁 |
| Oct 20 12:42:22 | 41m 04s | Idle Akademia | ♥ 3 | A good ol' clicker is always a welcome sight among jam games! A very solid entry. Loved the gnomes! Academia is nuts! |
| Oct 20 13:05:44 | 23m 22s | The Last AI | ♥ 3 | What a great entry! Loved the visuals and the humor. The actual gameplay is pretty straightforward, but I guess that's secondary here. The story and the atmosphere were very cool. |
| Oct 20 17:03:14 | 3h 57m | Paahde | ♥ 3 | The scope of this game is insanely impressive! Absolutely massive for a jam game, kudos for that! I loved the atmosphere and overall vibe. Also the dismantling minigame was very nice. Before getting the Pip-Boy I had some serious trouble finding back to the bunker on my excursions. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to tie such a fundamental thing as a home beacon to a device you have to find and repair. Especially since the landscape is very vast and repetitive. I loved the effects of the other repairable items, though! I played quite a while and I think I found and hunted all the different enemy types. I think I found one of the "special artifacts" but was unable to find the required parts for it. I wasn't really sure where to look for them, and I don't think the game gave any hints on where to find them, either. So I roamed around for a while blasting enemies and finding space-grade parts but couldn't really progress in the game. It's a bit too grindy to my taste. Eventually the whole game crashed and I think my progress is now gone. 🤷 |
| Oct 22 15:14:08 | 46h 10m | Old Tech Is The Best | ♥ 0 | Great auto battler! I felt the balance was a bit off since ever since the first boss I one-shotted every enemy. Even the final boss. 😵 Or maybe I got lucky with the items or something. |
