Stuck in Parallel by Omiya Games 2017-12-25T19:36:17Z

the game is nice and overall very good. it was a little bit so easy for me expected it to get worse. collision physics make it do strange staff and getting stuck some time make you sad but a reset will fix that. the game concept is nice, the implementation needs some tweaking maybe if you have time leave unity physics base collision and write your own that will help with the random glitches. it was fun playing the game thank you for making it.

LD 40 - Aliena Raptum by masterkrepta 2017-12-17T08:46:38Z

the idea is solid and nice but there are some things that require correction especially the sudden appear of helicopters (it is OK to fill the sky, but let them appear from outside the view). In addition, I had a glitch where I cannot collect humans but they keep flying with me (funny ^^, but still a big glitch)

Shiny Dream by Peredom 2017-12-21T07:32:41Z

fun and challenging game, it gets easier with time the more you play the more power up you get and i like that it doesn't reset when you die. the art style, VFX, and animation were awesome and SFX adds the game mood, however missing bg soundtrack make it feel a little bit quiet sometimes. the procedural generation of blocks keep the experience engaging and the 100 (especially the one with wings) give a sense of achievement. the throne and the crown look beautiful. the real fun starts after that tho XD. great job thank you for making that game <3

Smartphone Nightmare by gdquest 2017-12-24T13:19:44Z

overall its a great game, i guess if there was waves or round with linearly increasing difficulty it could be more fun! the art style and music track are nice. missing SFX take a little bit of the overall experience, but considering that this an compo entry great job ^_^ all the best !

Wired Network by Behenate 2017-12-25T19:04:10Z

love the art style VFX, the SFX was in line with the look and enhanced the mode. gameplay was a little bit hard due to no indication of how far the wall is, the enemy behind you and FPS view not given enough information about how far you are from cutters. the controls is ok except the weapon change i guess if it was done using mouse buttons or wheel it will be better, level design needs some tweaking since some level was easier than those before them. overall the game is super nice and been a compo make it even more awesome great entry.

Fleet Commander by MagmaFortress 2017-12-17T08:19:49Z

i like the controls they are soo simple and responsive :) The sound with the circles are a really nice polish indeed And most importantly, the game was fun

For future updates beyond the LD40, you can add power ups, and multiple planets to start from

WAVEFORM by pogo 2017-12-07T10:44:50Z

the art style and VFX are Amazing, wish SFX and was a good tho it would have made the game more fun to play. the gameplay is nice its get harder with time but I guess a wave goal will be a nice addition since it took me a while to figure out that their minion spawns somewhere in the map that I need to destroy. also, the game starts to lag a little bit after wave 3, I guess that because of my old laptop tho. great job. thank you for making that game ^^

Dungeon Hazard by Xenation 2017-12-05T18:06:17Z

the game restarted after I acquired the 6th box is this normal or glitch? The game idea is nice but the levels are too long considering that there are only 4 enemies that keep repeating :( overall decent game with a unique idea, but stretched too much (more gameplay time does not always mean better game :D ) On a side note, I really enjoyed how the stability issues sometimes makes weapons stronger and sometimes weaker

I wonder if I had a younger sister by fangzhangmnm 2017-12-17T09:04:18Z

Untitled.png the art style is charming, the story is so funny and engaging, gameplay and story follow the theme, girl getting more mad. and more shot is fired at you. I like that it's getting harder and harder(party hard xD), but the last level was not that hard or maybe it was a cut-scene. overall its fun to play thank you for make that game and best of luck.

Hell-A Work by kukiri 2017-12-07T08:27:12Z

reached 280 days :) the game is so much fun. the art style, SFX, music, animation, and gameplay are awesome. the only problem I faced was to figure out the employee behavior I guess if there was more metric or hint to what should be done since it seems a little bit random and not skill based. but great work, love it <3

Critical Mass by Mads 2017-12-25T18:35:29Z

Egyptian pyramids where my time stopped xD loved the black hole gravity effect and the big bang effect. well done. it gets a little bit hard tho.

Drag n Hoard by Spiffy 2017-12-17T08:36:25Z

The game is nice, but could've tweaked the jumping more to make it smoother. Also, controls should be in game to be easily accessible without needing to open itch to read the controls P.S. I liked how he become fatter after each loot

Servant of Greed by miki 2017-12-05T18:28:10Z

What a nice and fun game, I really liked how the game gives you points for everything, but at the same time you still avoid them...to avoid being squashed XD I think the music needs to be longer, but otherwise a game well done and fits the theme nicely I also like the simple but well drawn home screen

Snake Force by JeffChen 2017-12-08T11:14:41Z

this is the best game I played soو far so much fun, I will not focus a lot on why this is an awesome game, since it already been stated in the comments before (visuals, art style, gameplay) but I will try to report some bugs or issues, this been a compo make the missing sound understandable, however I wish you continue with the development and add SFX and music to the game and if possible ship it to itch, gamejolt steam. will 100% buy it especially if you add to it local-multiplayer and controller support(huge party game fan). if you have an account so we can follow the game please link it.on the bug side

- I don't know if its a bug or a feature if you aimed at your self and fire you die - HUD layer is not always on top of everything else. first night level [night.png](///raw/8e3/01/z/e460.png) - the game is easy for me and the difficulty are same throughout the levels just avoid take any soldier and finish the game then come back and get them. the last level (after game jam was so much fun tho :) ) - you can outrange the enemy and kill them with zero risk - the core mechanics of line up so you don't kill your player or soldiers is innovative, however, it makes it easy for the enemy to kill you or your fellow soldiers and limit you from move a lot and make the combat slower which is not so much fun!

overall this game is EPIC and thank you very much for making it <3

IntenSEAty by Casper 2017-12-07T10:01:16Z

screenshot.png overall you guys did well. the animation, art, and music tracks are awesome. on the other hand, there some stuff that is confusing the enemy bullet color is similar to that of the background which makes it hard to see, the game is so easy I reached 30k and I could keep going forever since it does not get harder with time (you could make harder by increasing the number of enemies or make them harder to kill, decrease the number of healing bubbles or make them hard to catch). the music track gets more intense with time I thought that dynamic till it looped :( if you can make it dynamically increase intensity with time as the game gets harder it will add a lot to the game atmosphere. finally the enemy death SFX do not go well with the rest also an enemy hit sound will be nice. P.S: make a note of what player should do, since I thought bubbles is an attack for a while (or make an SFX and VFX that show the increasing of health when it hit you). the game is good but it's not super fun, but it can be ;)

Wonder Tsum by regisrquoi 2017-12-21T08:55:38Z

smooth gameplay, kind fit the theme, great puzzle design, charming art relaxing and beautiful sound design. the only bug I faced is the one related to unity physic collisions which didn't affect the experience a lot. overall great job <3

Signal by HitchH1k3r 2019-05-10T13:11:55Z

just wow, the level of polish in this game is insane, I think i spend like an hour playing the game it was fun XD got all the upgrades and enjoyed trying them.combat was entertaining, the narrative was well written, pixel art was awesome, animation and VFX were great. overall an amazing entry. keep it up <3. the only thing that annoyed me a little bit is that you can't go down when you on the platform and that sometime you find the wall dialogue box where you want to jump.

Mine Corp. by Hadik 2019-05-04T08:01:40Z

personally I'm not a huge fan of this genre, however, I liked the idea, graphics, SFX, VFX and the clean code <3. however, a bg soundtrack would have been nice. overall this was an interesting entry. for what can be improved you can add upgradeable attacks to balance the increasing number and absorption power of the enemy. well done and i hope you keep working on it ^^ all the best

Dealing with LIFE by klausklapper 2019-05-10T13:47:54Z

that was a fun little game ^_^ relaxing music and cool SFX. graphic and VFX were cool. card name added some humor to the game. overall the game felt nice <3 for improvements, I guess maybe a limitation on the number of cards you can play, or a scroll feature so you can see all the cards you have when it get missy xD but this some extreme cases

Who Wants to Be a Vampire's Heir? by andrewjoy 2019-05-08T19:47:38Z

so far this my favourite game this jam, it was so funny and I had so much fun with it. the music, the voiceover make the game feel so immersive. graphics and VFX were visually satisfying and the code were clean and worked perfectly. honestly, I don't see anything that needs improvement, Amazing job guys. wish you all the best <3

Tensilver [HTML] by seizethedia 2019-05-07T19:13:21Z

the game idea was nice and interesting, the sound effect was funny and engaging, the graphic was charming and overall the game felt nice. the control tho could use some improvement, for example, you could get rid of the click and drop and just make it count when you click on the coin since click and drop seem to take so much time and its kinda annoying. also, there is a bug where even if you put the right about of coins customers still stay and just change the number (see pic below). overall this was a nice entry good job and good luck.

here customer asked for 6 and i placed one 5 and one 1 image (12).png

after clicking space this happen image (11).png

Wild Card Necromancer by JOrbits 2019-05-03T13:58:35Z

this was a fun experience well done. good use of the theme using your life power to summon them, minions, good sound effect, a soundtrack could have added more to the game mood tho. having a web version is also great ^^. the art looks nice, the movement feels smooth except when you another enemy touch you( i assumed its a slow effect xD). the only problem I found was that sometimes you can die from creating unites(if this by design ignores this, however, it seemed weird since u can't click the UI when u don't have an extra half heart). didn't find the exact action that causes this but in all cases, I was clicking on a zombie -2 UI image (4).png

my highest score image (3).png

Mint Sprint by kaiclavier 2019-05-06T10:06:04Z

great work on the level design and art the game kept introducing interesting new mechanics to keep me engaged ( ignoring the difficulty order tho). the code seems to be clean especially been a physics-based game strange physic behaviour felt more like features xD so well done. the only thing missing is the background music but given the SFX and that its a 10 levels game and the limited time it's understandable. all the best <3

Courage, My Knight by sparewizard 2019-05-06T12:49:28Z

for a game that is not fully complete it feel super polished, and been a compo this make this entry even more awesome ^_^. the story is so immersive, the art is simply beautiful and the VFX add a ton the game feel all that make this a great experiencing. well done sir <3

Overworked by MsAlison 2019-05-03T11:36:47Z

overall it was a nice experience ^^. I liked that it was fast pace and kind overtaxing I worked super hard to get to 900$ and lost that pretty fast at the end. was wondering do you increase the pace based on how overworked you are (cash gained)or linearly with time. for me, the UI and the controls were ok, managed to figure them out without reading control.text but seem others have problem with that so maybe adding them to the UI. there a ton of stuff you can add but for an initial build, this looks solid.

P.S: is that works hanged on the wall at the end xD that so some funny dark humor <3

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-06T13:18:23Z

@argon glad you liked the experience, we will be taking it to a full game later this year so stay toned ^^. about the bug yeah seem so that some time that happens, would you care to give us more details about when it happens so we can fix it. @popdaddygames yeah you are right will add some pic to the page. @msalison thank for the feedback will look into the UI design.

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-06T13:30:57Z

@argon yeah thanks will look into it ^_^

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-07T17:52:58Z

@seizethedia yeah we figured it out seem that its caused by the ignore button code will upload a new version asap.

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-07T20:52:29Z

fixed the bug now the game should work fine. thanks for your feedback.

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-09T08:46:19Z

@zoneoutapps changing the bg with choices seem to be a good idea, however due to time and that this game art was done by our main programmer we kept it simple. and yeah hopefully we will take this to the finished game later this year.

@philipprapp95 our programmer will be proud (art is done by programmer and programming done by the artist, we love to have fun with game jams trying new staff :) ) and yeah we have an awesome composer you check his work here https://soundcloud.com/4knights-game-studio

@jlv glad you like it, the time constraint maybe had something to do with it but we also wanted to learn Godot (first time using the engine) so that also took some time to get used to. we had almost double these choices planed but didn't have the time to implement them. we will try to add them later once we are back to take this project to a full game.

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-09T08:47:02Z

@gamefive thank you for giving it a try ^^

TheGuard by 4Knights 2019-05-11T10:10:07Z

@jk5000 yeah sorry about that we didn't have time to add more, and glad you like it overall.

@ransom you are right more work is a need to polish the game sadly we didn't have enough time to work on that but we are planning to take it to a full game hopefully later this year ^^ so we will fix all the issue mention here. thanks for your suggestion we appreciate it.

Cloudwalker by JLV 2019-05-09T09:44:49Z

the graphic was ok, however, story and sound are where this game shines so good job there. the code was clean did find any bugs or freezes. would love if the next button was within the commander's order screen so we don't have to turn to the side, and for reducing the stare time maybe make it so that the more u keep staring at something the faster it loads or something similar. overall you did a neat job been solo. gameplay wise tho I think it needs some improvement feedback or a reward system could be nice you get more fuel with the more target you find, a ground defence rocket destroy the target after you mark it. cool and sad ending tho <3 all the best

Soulbound by Dovakla 2019-05-20T23:15:21Z

an interesting graphic, and cool music. sadly I couldn't play the game fully due to the resolution problem ( to solve it simply go to the canvas and change the UI scale mode to "Scale With Screen Size"), the text also seemed very long you might want to make far away simpler. can't talk much about the combat due to screen issue but the gameplay needed to be clearer, I contracted everyone and I was still standing what does a - life mean? you should try to answer this question or make it more clear for the player. overall you did a good job get that much gameplay done in the short time given. all the best.

Rashness by Saering 2019-05-10T14:21:53Z

state of the art pixal art, fitting music and SFX. interesting combat and game mechanics. balanced gameplay, replay value and clean code. super compo entry <3 wish you all the best

NewLife by UNLINK 2019-05-03T11:11:03Z

overall it was a fun experience love how you made it just as confusing as real life, you can study but if you study a lot you will miss on other areas of life. study affect your job and its salary which is cool. ages unlock new areas of the game, the mood meter and friends are all very cool. the graphic was on point helped the game feel calm and fun. the audio was dope <3. my favourite part about the game was the end statement it was so funny ^_^. the only problem I found tho was that some staff cost cash and some cost life but there nothing that indicate which is which( don't know if that a design decision or you missed it).

Slime, life, time, money. by gamefive 2019-05-08T14:49:40Z

very innovative use of the theme, since the theme, say life is a currency it doesn't define the value of that currency and the use of it, and you simply flipped the use so getting more life get you close to the death or in this case a happy death or end, while time doesn't give you more time it has the opposite effect it takes time away from you and you become slower and eventually die, interesting concept. and adding the Korean words made more fun, challenging and a bit educational. graphic and sound is ok but could be better. seem you are still at the start of your development journey, and scratch is a good place to understand programming logic. as the guys above said try to learn tools that give you more power game maker, game salat, godot, unity, fusion, unreal whatever you feel best suit you ^^ all the best.

Live battle by CaOrJavier 2019-05-06T14:11:16Z

creating a 3d character for a game jam is impressive, the music and art style was cool, however, the bloom felt a little bit overused. also, the control tends to be annoying if it was possible to make the camera rotate with the movement direction that would be easier I think. also could not feel the effect of the upgrade on gameplay. it will be nice if there a way to restore your life points ( maybe all your heart will be restored when starting a game). overall it was ok. all the best.

☐​☐☐☐☐ : an experimental narrative ​ by Lapersila 2019-05-08T13:18:50Z

a very interesting way to go about narrative-driven games, however, I might have expected more especially from the go back in time mechanics. simple art and sound effect is a wise choice since this your first game jam. the addition of a soundtrack tho would have improved the game mode quite a bit. what you can improve is the story since events felt disconnected and it do not drive you to look for what gone happen next. finally, make the go back do something cool like erase or change the outcome. overall good job and congrats on your first game jam game.

here some screenshot doesn't know if that considered overlap tho. image (13).png image (14).png
