Oct 21 14:05:11 Ultimate future: spaceship laser adventure, the new-age shooter ♥ 1 Nice! I'm happy it went somewhere with the theme and fun to see and predict how far it would regress.
Oct 21 14:50:11 45m 00s Across The Meridian ♥ 1 Woah, that was trippy. Does following the instructions have any effect on the game? I assume it's just for flavor but I don't know enough about constellations to manage doing it correctly (even though I tried to look up some stuff). Still, nice and moody experimental game.
Oct 21 15:35:49 45m 38s Pinball "Repair" SIMULATOR ♥ 0 Ah, the old bang on things technique to fix them. Tried the web version first but the low framerate takes some fun and challenge away. Definitely worth downloading instead for a smoother experience.
Oct 21 15:52:09 16m 20s Shmatari Shmidden Gems ♥ 0 Takes me back. Nailed the style of the Shmatari with those non square pixels. I love how Tennis is just Ping again ๐Ÿ˜‚.
Oct 21 16:53:14 1h 01m It's About Time for Murder ♥ 1 Really nice graphics, sound and overall polished presentation. I really enjoy deduction games. It's maybe a bit on the easy side with only weapon and time to consider so another layer of depth would be nice. Still, brought out some pen and paper and had fun (even though I later noticed the character files are updated with information in game as well).
Oct 21 17:31:14 38m 00s Road Trip '86! ♥ 1 Nice! I don't know if I got lucky with morale as it barely moved (maybe it should decrease a little each drive). Winning the quiz helped as well ๐Ÿ˜…. Getting lost was a nice touch as I would've skipped most towns and just gone straight to my destinations. I really wish there was some sound to add to the mood. I want to hear those JAMS! Also, where is my option to buy horse manure?
Oct 21 17:56:59 25m 45s Zombie Apocalypse ♥ 1 Quite the challenge! At first I was thinking, do the controls really need to be this complex? One keyboard button to pick up an item, one on the mouse to switch etc. I was thinking maybe it would be better if you pick up items automatically or be able to click to pick them up. But the more played I feel like it adds to the challenge and more satisfying once you learn to juggle the controls amid the chaos. I also thought you would need to get every item to repair the turrets so it really wasn't too hard and pretty satisfying once they turend on.
Oct 21 18:38:54 41m 55s NewHouseโ„ข ♥ 1 Well, that got dark. Decorating has never been my forte so I'm not surprised it went downhill. Really nice presentation!
Oct 21 20:24:38 1h 45m No Matter ♥ 0 Trippy! Got lost the first time but I wanted to see where it went. Not sure if there is anything more once you get to the white space. I didn't see any path so I just started venturing into the void until it was to late to turn around. The way movement keeps limiting feels like you're entering lower dimensions as you matter less and to keep following the path was a nice challenge. Great sound and mood.
Oct 21 21:25:34 1h 00m Punch Corp ♥ 0 Hey! This is kinda like my game, only better and more true to the actual tech๐Ÿ˜„. Really impressive stuff!
Oct 21 21:54:59 29m 25s Long Wave Home ♥ 0 Cute! Lovely graphics and some nice level design, mix of mechanics and even a couple of boss fights. I agree with others about the text boxes, but you got reminders so it wasn't too bad.
Oct 22 14:02:13 16h 07m Stars and the Sea ♥ 2 Love the idea! The clouds added more frustration than anything else though even though I get the point. I'd rather have a longer path with a clear sky. Also took me a while until I realized the game doesn't pause when you open that map which makes sense I guess but made me lose track. Might also be good to always have at least one star visible at the start. I did make it to the green star in the end after a few restarts. Music is great and fitting!
Oct 22 14:36:50 34m 37s A Little Piece of You ♥ 0 Nice! Not sure if I sent a fax correctly or if the feedback is a bit unclear. I ended up reloading the game and when I clicked the fax I noticed I had received messages. I didn't really read the description so the realization that you're sending and receiving from other players was really cool. Love the music and art!
Oct 22 15:19:40 42m 50s Scrap Treasure ♥ 0 Sick! The puzzle aspect alone is great but then you got the incremental automation layer on top of that. Everything feels super polished as well.
Oct 22 16:05:04 45m 24s Retroid Zania ♥ 1 Fun bite-sized adventure with a nice mix of gameplay! The ascii part surprised me in a good way. Good polish all around. Might try getting the secret ending as well.
Oct 22 17:11:01 1h 05m Super Pong 2000 ♥ 0 I like the juicy look! Pretty fun and sounds nice too. Difficulty might ramp up a bit too fast and after a while I felt like I barely got to play between choosing downgrades since the "score to downgrade" doesn't scale and is always 5 points.
Oct 22 17:19:35 8m 34s Archimedes' Last Stand ♥ 1 Neat idea! Could use some sound effects and visual feedback to feel a bit more satisfying. A little sizzle, smoke and flames. Like someone mentioned, difficulty ramping as well.
Oct 22 17:40:32 20m 57s The Last Tumbler ♥ 0 I like the line art style! It is trial and error but once you understand where the pins should be aligned (top of the pin to the second line from the top) it gets less frustrating and is just about trying again and remembering the order that works.
Oct 22 18:00:36 20m 04s The Power Glove Odyssey ♥ 1 Pretty fun! Not sure if I missed something about weapon upgrades. I bought the bouncy spreadshot but kept shooting the same singular bullet. Also got another weapon slot but not sure what that did either. Visual feedback is good with particles and flashing but it could really use some sound effects as well. Music is fun though, even though it doesn't loop.
Oct 22 18:13:15 12m 39s 10 Hours per Mile ♥ 1 Love it! Great use of the theme to have to manage a hunk of junk. There is something satisfying about cranking and hopping into it while it's moving even if it is at a snail's pace. Sounds great too and nice music choice even if it's not yours.
Oct 22 18:38:47 25m 32s Fliptober: Retro Edition ♥ 0 Cute! Although I feel like his cheating help me more to be honest ๐Ÿ˜…. Are his picks entirely random? It feels like it and if so, maybe it would be a good idea to give him a higher chance to pick the right ones after cheating to give him an edge.
Oct 22 18:58:04 19m 17s Steam Dasher ♥ 1 Love it! Feels really satisfying to drive. Very polished as well! Nice that you even added a little narrative that changes the gameplay bit as you progress.
Oct 23 12:35:59 17h 37m GO AWAY ♥ 0 That was fun! The pixelart is great with a lot of variety. Love the idea of military helicopters bringing in tourists and of course data centers ๐Ÿ˜†.
Oct 23 12:59:06 23m 07s Grandpa's Grid Too: Detention ♥ 1 Man, overhead projectors take me back. That was fun! I like how the rooms are randomized yet keep ramping up difficulty as you progress some of those bullet hell rooms were a doozy). The transitions are really smooth and I never got tired seeing the hand draw things in. Great stuff!
Oct 23 13:10:34 11m 28s Up a Tree ♥ 1 Ah banana technology. Cute! For some reason at, first I thought the vines(?) had thorns and you couldn't touch them and had to use the banana ๐Ÿ˜…. Nice base for a puzzle game, just need some more levels. Nice pixel art!
Oct 23 13:26:23 15m 49s Booji ♥ 1 Cozy, cute and relaxing little treasure hunt! Lovely graphics and atmosphere. Camera going into the walls is a bit janky but not too much of a problem.
Oct 23 13:41:45 15m 22s Full Steam Ahead! ♥ 1 Was confused the first few times when the second control prompt came up and thought I lost because I went too fast since I would just crash right after. Boy was I wrong, and when it clicked that that was the beginning of the true game I had a blast flying through space. Really polished graphics with a simple idea and great execution.
Oct 23 13:54:28 12m 43s Bumper Cars Guy ♥ 0 Getting in a jam with bumper cars was the worst. Once I figured out driving my own car into pile was not a great strategy it became more fun. Nice and polished!
