UhUhUhUh Staying Alive by Josh Ayres 2020-05-09T02:01:28Z ♥ 0

Haha fun idea! One minor thing is that if there were two notes in rapid succession, the "Good"s could overlap and it was hard to tell what you got on the second note.

Guardy_Bird by Matootsy 2020-05-09T01:57:03Z ♥ 1

Really nice ideas here! I was quite surprised that I could lose by overfeeding the birds!

Passing Flame by FallingFlatStudios 2020-05-09T01:52:54Z ♥ 1

Fun little game, although the enemies were really tough to deal with! The post compo version seemed to make them easier, but it had a tendency to space the fires really fire about which was frustrating. You lose some of your flame and there's nothing you can really do if you just have to walk a far distance.

Luna Blanca by OddTimes 2020-05-09T01:46:13Z ♥ 0

I liked it a lot, although it got quite tedious haha Definitely satisfying getting more upgrades as it went on though! I wasn't a fan of the movement, especially the jumping, but I assume it's intentional that it was so floaty since it's in space.

The Last Guardian by civmaniac 2020-05-09T01:28:22Z ♥ 2

Nice game! I enjoyed it a lot - I especially liked the tension between maintaining the tree and growing cacti. I think my biggest gripe is that it was a bit confusing, I had to re-read the instructions a few times to figure out what I was doing.

Grow by TerribleTrioJoe 2020-05-04T00:28:22Z ♥ 1

Nice game, I think the concept is great! The controls and physics felt a bit clunky, I would often get stuck temporarily. The switching between seeds and water felt a little clunky as well. I also didn't understand what the bugs did at first, but that's my bad for not reading your instructions πŸ˜† Good work!

IO: Live Birthday by Armani03k 2020-05-04T00:17:48Z ♥ 1

Really fun game! I thought only being able to teleport to move was a cool idea. I stuck with the sniper weapon and it felt waaaay more effective than anything else early on, but I could see how another weapon might be better as more enemies spawn.

The Ritual by Isak 2020-05-04T00:12:31Z ♥ 0

Simple game, but feels like a solid start! I noticed the health bar seemed misaligned for meScreen Shot 2020-05-03 at 5.12.07 PM.png

Phobos by jordwest 2020-05-04T00:08:43Z ♥ 1

Nice game! I had trouble actually harvesting the fear, it was quite hard not to be noticed! I liked the mood and I think the idea is really good! Keep working on it and it could be really fun!

Orb Defender by Hej_Medister 2020-05-04T00:02:51Z ♥ 2

Simple gameplay, but well done! Especially impressive for being only 12! Could the orb actually be destroyed? It seemed like enemies were absolutely hammering it, yet it never got destroyed. That made the game a lot easier than expected since it was pretty easy to dodge enemies just by moving. I was a little annoyed at first that I couldn't shoot through the orb, especially because the player movement felt pretty slow, but it ended up not being as much of a big deal as I expected. One time a gun seemed to spawn under the orb which I almost didn't notice at first. Nice work overall! There was solid variety with the enemies and guns!

No Spray, No Pay by LukeBandy 2020-05-03T23:53:45Z ♥ 0

Nice game! I enjoyed the graphics πŸ˜„ I liked that it started off slow to ease the player in, but it got much more difficult than I had expected! I didn't even realize my plants were dying half the time. I think the ones on the edge blended in a bit, which may have been part of the reason. Good work!

Fire Logs by juako 2020-05-03T00:57:02Z ♥ 1

Nice work! It took me a while to get used to the controls, but when I did it was really fun!

Message by NoamRaz 2020-05-03T00:43:08Z ♥ 2

Nice work! You did a great job establishing the mood with the lighting! I felt like the controls were a bit too floaty and I wasn't able to get past the boss fight. I didn't feel like I had quite enough time to respond to the falling objects. Good job and keep it up!

Square Loves Circle! by meelo 2020-05-02T05:17:31Z ♥ 1

Cool game with some nice puzzles! I wasn't a fan of the controls though, they felt quite hard to work with. I agree with an above comment that calls the reaction to the controls too slow. The particle effects when colliding were also a bit much. Besides that though, great work!

Slime Forest by aucguy 2020-05-02T04:57:33Z ♥ 0

Simple game, but fun! Also, who's leaving all these pills and bullets lying around?!

Symbio-tech by GenericToast 2020-05-02T04:50:48Z ♥ 1

Nice game! I didn't quite understand what I was doing at first, but I picked it up quickly! One misunderstanding was that I thought I had to use the shield bash on enemies, I didn't realize just having the shield in place was enough to block them. After realizing that I pretty much never used the shield bash, it felt kind of useless, but maybe I was missing something.

The Consequences of Gardening by JMad 2020-05-02T04:45:44Z ♥ 5

Really well done! The graphics and audio were amazing! I was a bit confused as to what I was doing at first, but wow that twist hahaha. To nitpick, I thought the delay between clicking something and text coming up was a bit too long and the sound that played when clicking was a bit annoying. Great game!

YMGYPBVF: You Must Gather Your Party Before Venturing Forth by amkingTRP 2020-05-02T04:29:09Z ♥ 1

Awesome game! The puzzles were really fun and the concept is great! Very well done! Only nitpick is I think the restart button should have been "R" instead of escape.

Type or Die by pepperkep 2020-05-02T04:16:38Z ♥ 2

Some nice twists on a typing game! Could be a fun way to learn typing πŸ˜†

Autoexec by reheated 2020-05-02T04:10:33Z ♥ 1

Really cool game, I liked it a lot! It felt incredibly polished and I was really impressed how many abilities you implemented and how well designed they were! I did feel like the enemy bullets were a bit hard to see as they blended into the background a little. Great work and I'd love to see more of this in the future!

Home Alone Party by Dedicave 2020-05-02T03:56:08Z ♥ 1

Great concept and solid execution! The graphics and music were great! The game started off in my opinion waaay too slow. I was just waiting around occasionally changing the music while waiting for people to show up, which took quite a while. It definitely became way more hectic once they did show up! I liked it a lot though, would love to see this worked on more!

Tetralon by frosty 2020-04-30T04:11:13Z ♥ 1

Really fun and well made! It took me longer than I'd like to admit to realize that the "hills" didn't count as walls (which was a little confusing since the water does)

Don't Touch the Button by Manuel MagalhΓ£es 2020-04-29T05:05:40Z ♥ 1

Hahaha that was hilarious! I had no clue what the gameplay was going to entail πŸ˜†

S for Squad by Asue 2020-04-29T05:01:46Z ♥ 2

Solid game, I liked the idea of a hybrid between a turn based game and an action game! Some of the gameplay felt a little confusing, like how you have to use up all of your movement to be able to act and how it doesn't let you move again until you do act (which is maybe a good thing, but I was confused at first). It also seems like you could shoot through walls which was surprising. Good work though, this felt like a solid foundation for a game!

Heartful Defense by Nelson William 2020-04-29T04:51:08Z ♥ 1

Fun game! It was kind of tough. I felt like I didn't get enough cards that did damage. The spikes seemed very ineffective and I barely got any shooting towers. It also wasn't super clear to me at first that cards are usable while enemies are coming. It would have been nice if the explosion/freeze cards weren't playable when enemies weren't coming.

ALYVE by jspacek 2020-04-28T03:29:26Z ♥ 1

Cool tower defense game! It took me a while to figure out the controls though.

Connection by Trifectuh 2020-04-28T03:25:49Z ♥ 1

Fun puzzle game! I'm not sure I completely grasped the mechanics, but I was able to win so I guess I knew what I was doing πŸ˜…

Planty by kitjenson 2020-04-28T03:18:40Z ♥ 1

Simple, but quite fun! πŸ˜„

Keep It Alive by Ismael Rodriguez - Ludum Dare 46 by Ismael Rodriguez 2020-04-28T03:13:13Z ♥ 2

Fun game! I liked it a lot! I was impressed with the level design and how much content there was πŸ˜„

Spider Dash by Quacky22200 2020-04-28T03:04:40Z ♥ 1

Fun game, but I was quite bad at it (even on easy) πŸ˜… I would have appreciated the spider's collider being slightly larger. There were multiple times it felt like the ball went right through me.

Adrift by cdunham 2020-04-28T02:57:25Z ♥ 1

Fun game, but tough! The controls were quite hard to work with (which to be fair was part of the fun, to a point). My natural inclination was to hold down "W", but I found it to actually be much easier if I gently tapped it as rarely as possible. I'd love to be able to press "R" to restart a level when I know I'm doomed. The restart option doesn't come up until you've completely stopped which makes sense to some extent, but it's frustrating when you're stuck waiting because turrets keep pushing you around.

The Expedition by DreamingDice 2020-04-28T02:46:57Z ♥ 1

I had a hard time figuring the game out as well. I really expected the characters to autoattack and couldn't figure out why they kept dying without a fight. Once I figured it out it was cool, it looks like there's a lot of content!

Constance by Oakwarrior 2020-04-28T02:38:41Z ♥ 3

Amazing job, you absolutely killed it with the graphics, audio, and mood!

Air Ball by joh 2020-04-28T02:28:57Z ♥ 1

Really nice game! I liked the idea a lot! Also the zoom when the ball hit the ground was a nice touch! It was hard though. The first few times I tried recruiting someone, they immediately hit the ball and screwed things up. It took me a few tries to realize I should recruit them away from the ball so they don't interfere and then move them. Good work!

PS I thought I recognized your profile picture - I was following the development of Project Killer for a while. Sorry to hear it's on hiatus, I hope you can get back to it some time πŸ˜„

My Friend Phil by Conroy 2020-04-28T01:26:31Z ♥ 1

Pretty fun, but very challenging! The controls didn't feel great. The player moved really fast which made it hard to avoid or stomp enemies, but jumping (especially wall jumping) didn't feel powerful enough. Good work though, I'd love to see a more polished version made!

Elevator Orator by Le Slo 2020-04-27T00:37:23Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed it, but to be honest I don't think I ever completely figured out how to play πŸ˜… I liked the elevator aesthetic though!

Kakyuumari / γ‚«γ‚­γƒ₯γ‚¦γƒžγƒͺ by studioNOKOI 2020-04-27T00:27:47Z ♥ 1

Nice game! The cutscene was great! To reiterate what's already been said, the camera was too jittery. Also I felt like I was only able to pick up small items, does it eventually get to the point that you can pick up the trees?

Exolvuntur by PxGluz 2020-04-25T01:26:47Z ♥ 2

Nice game! I had a hard time figuring out how to get past the first enemy because I didn't understand what the wardrobe was doing (I thought it was a bug that it made the screen black πŸ˜†) Besides that, it was a bit frustrating to have to start completely over every time I died and I ended up quitting without finishing the game because of that. Overall though I liked it!

Planet Defenders For Hire by paulhocker 2020-04-25T01:15:37Z ♥ 0

Felt like a solid foundation for a game!

Miscen...AGAIN!? by itsdanidre 2020-04-25T01:04:53Z ♥ 1

Awesome game, I liked it a lot! The graphics were cute and I liked that the music got more frantic as time ran out. I didn't realize at first that I could go to other rooms, the doors weren't super obvious. I also didn't realize that I had to close the riddle to be able to move. The riddles were challenging, but fun! Great work!

Oogy's Saviour by dingotime 2020-04-25T00:57:54Z ♥ 1

Nice job, it was fun! I was a little confused what I was trying to do at first, but I figured it out.

Sitbot 5000 by James Beninger 2020-04-24T03:41:01Z ♥ 0

Congrats on making the game πŸ˜„

Hype Town - Keep the Party Alive! by BradleyAshley 2020-04-24T03:35:55Z ♥ 0

Simple game, but nice! I found it quite hard (playing with a trackpad) when I tried to click everyone, but it seems like I could just focus on a single person and still win which was much easier. Nice music and animations!

Angel by nomisvdp 2020-04-24T03:29:09Z ♥ 1

Cool simple minigame collection!

Larry by GMChill 2020-04-24T03:17:02Z ♥ 2

Couldn't quite figure out the controls, only movement and jumping seemed to work for me. Cool start to a game!

Play Hangman and Learn Kiswahili by bkmld 2020-04-24T03:11:58Z ♥ 1

Congrats on making a game! It was challenging playing hangman with a language I don't know. It would be cool if afterwards it showed the definition of the word so I could learn new words!

Keep It Alive For 100s by royur 2020-04-24T03:06:15Z ♥ 1

I wasn't able to figure out the controls at first (I didn't realize mouse was movement), but once I did I was able to win by finding a safe place in the middle of the screen and just staying there. The sound effects were funny but really loud! Nice work!

Final Interrogation by Gamer Fates 2020-04-24T02:59:06Z ♥ 2

Cool game! Definitely a concept I enjoyed! I felt like the questions available to ask were all quite... bland. I feel like I would have wanted to ask some meatier questions than "who do you work for". I did guess the culprit correctly on my first try, but it was honestly an educated guess. I'm not sure I had enough clues to actually work with.

COVID 19 by Alex Warren 2020-04-24T02:47:26Z ♥ 0

Nice, although the gameplay was quite simple. The graphics were excellent though! I liked the music too, but the sound effects were a bit loud and distracted from it.

S^5 (Summoner Shooting Skeletons Saving Something) by ZachZ 2020-04-24T02:42:28Z ♥ 2

Feels like a solid start to a game! I had trouble with refilling books, it felt like sometimes I'd go to the well and still not get any? The game felt really hard because I kept running out of books, but I might just be bad πŸ˜…

Death Trap II: Revenge of the Walls by schmavery 2020-04-24T02:30:51Z ♥ 2

Cool idea, it felt very polished! I might be dumb but I don't think I understood how the new paths were determined when you changed a path. It would be nice to be able to move around boulders without having to reset the most recently placed one.

Open Fire! by Amazura 2020-04-23T03:34:13Z ♥ 2

Very simple gameplay, but the graphics were really great and the music worked really well! I could actually see this turning into something like a rhythm game πŸ˜†

Mage or Trouble by SynysterCola 2020-04-23T03:27:27Z ♥ 2

Great idea! The gameplay was tough!

"Covid Conundrum" Civil Policy Simulator by merrak 2020-04-23T03:13:43Z ♥ 0

Cool idea, very timely! The font was pretty hard to read but besides that very well made!

Will of the Wisp by johnfn 2020-04-23T03:05:16Z ♥ 3

Wow, the graphics and music were amazing! The gameplay felt kind of rough around the edges. The camera felt a bit off, especially when jumping you could sometimes end up briefly out of frame. I also had some frame rate issues at one point and the text felt very slow which may be related. I think you have a really solid foundation though! Great work!

Raiders of the Rural Realm by SpiRiTs 2020-04-23T02:47:22Z ♥ 2

Simple gameplay but amazing graphics! I liked the enemy variety too!

Save It With Fire!!! by Jason Woerner 2020-04-23T01:31:26Z ♥ 1

Cool game! It felt kind of punishing that you had to go to the recycling bin if you picked up the wrong thing. Just throw it on the ground dude, humanity is at stake! I also kind of had trouble keeping the materials straight. Maybe some more color coding would help?

SMT V final Boss leak by sadsmile 2020-04-22T03:33:51Z ♥ 2

Cool idea and really nice graphics, but I wasn't able to really get into the game

Sliding Caves by xmatos 2020-04-22T03:25:09Z ♥ 1

Simple, but felt pretty polished! It took me a while to realize I could kill the enemies, I originally thought I was just supposed to block off the stone. I liked the music too!

Vote Jack! by kfischer-okarin 2020-04-22T03:17:40Z ♥ 2

The zoom effect looked great! I found it kind of hard to distinguish between civilians and snipers but I think I just didn't know what I was looking for. Also after killing what I think was an innocent it displayed some code and mentioned the fps had dropped below 30 or something? But besides that the mood was great, it felt very tense and the music helped a lot!

Kims little shop of Convenience by Ripter 2020-04-22T03:08:48Z ♥ 0

Seems like a solid start to an RPG. I definitely felt the Earthbound vibes :)

tiriplici by Trexxak 2020-04-22T00:03:56Z ♥ 2

Nice work! I liked the idea of controlling two characters at once!

TankMan Phil by RedHermit 2020-04-21T23:52:57Z ♥ 1

Why are the aliens even a threat if they have a time machine? just kidding πŸ˜† Simple gameplay, but cool visuals!

Doomsday Feelings by biemorth 2020-04-21T23:48:17Z ♥ 0

Really amazing graphics, and some really cool ideas for gameplay! I really liked the idea of being able to choose what to spend your time doing during the rests. Would love to see these ideas expanded on more!

Light Carrier by Axkarth 2020-04-21T23:41:28Z ♥ 1

I had some trouble figuring out the gameplay. When I first started it didn't seem like there was anything nearby. After running a while I eventually did find a tree and what look like maybe areas to plant thing? Besides that, the mood was great and graphics worked pretty well.

Micromanaged Mike by rsninjadev 2020-04-21T23:35:48Z ♥ 0

Hilarious and really well made! Definitely challenging but I was able to beat it (hilarious ending btw). The movement was a bit finicky (well, even more than it was already πŸ˜† ) when trying to climb things. A few times I got stuck in positions that I couldn't seem to get out of.

Blood On The Snow by Wolfrug 2020-04-21T23:23:29Z ♥ 3

Seems very promising, but I also couldn't get through the first battle :( Also, I was confused at first because I kept trying to click the actions once they appeared, I didn't realize there was more text before the battle actually started. And it looks like there's a bug where the vampire dissapears, even when not playing in fullscreen (alright, who put a mirror in the game? πŸ˜†). Really nice graphics, writing, and mood though!

Controller by XdSilentStorm 2020-04-21T20:46:13Z ♥ 1

Cool idea and pretty fun! I found the controls to be pretty awkward but I think it's because I was playing with a trackpad and not a proper mouse.

Keep "IT" Alive by RoboDoig 2020-04-21T20:35:25Z ♥ 1

Interesting idea! I might be missing something, but is there a reason to go for longer words? It seems like it would be optimal to stay with 3 letter words as long as possible. Also sometimes there were blank tiles, are those for deleting a letter?

Vestige by BitPokit 2020-04-21T20:21:01Z ♥ 1

Cool concept and pretty fun gameplay! The minimal graphics worked well enough and I liked the music. You did a good job incorporating story into the game as well! It did feel like it got kind of laggy as the game went on, but maybe that was just for me.

Ignitus Dead Paw - The Revenge by Nerzal 2020-04-21T20:14:00Z ♥ 1

Nice graphics! The platforming felt a little clunky and I think there might have been a bug with the shop. It kept opening when I respawned and then immediately closing. I think I got to the shop at the end of the level but it kept closing on its own?

Save The Game by Rodrigo Castro 2020-04-21T20:08:37Z ♥ 1

Simple, but nice little game!

DOC+ORS by bixarrio 2020-04-21T20:02:51Z ♥ 1

Really cool game and quite polished, but harder than I expected! These are some needy patients and I just couldn't seem to mobilize the staff fast enough :( The graphics were excellent too!

Final Flower: Petals of a Lost Age by Scott Steffes 2020-04-21T19:52:16Z ♥ 2

I love the idea! Really fun! The capsule grabbing feels great too which is a huge piece of the game. The leaderboard is a nice touch and I really like how instead of having a health bar, getting hit by bullets impacts your ability to catch the capsule.

Stoker by disperse 2020-04-21T19:44:01Z ♥ 2

I liked it! There was a lot to keep an eye on (enemies, bombs, and steam) while trying to get money, which made for some frantic running around! I couldn't figure out how to restore the steam though :(

Feast of blood by DanilShekarev 2020-04-21T19:13:55Z ♥ 0

Cool idea, although I had trouble with the game. I thought I was behind people, but pressing E didn't seem to work except for one time. Really like the mood you established, although I actually found it to be a bit too dark on my screen.

Needy Slime in a cozy house. by digitaldude555 2020-04-21T19:07:20Z ♥ 1

Neat game. I couldn't figure out how to cook the food though :(

Bondfire by daidiimon 2020-04-21T19:02:44Z ♥ 2

Very challenging but I liked it a lot! I found the gameplay to be quite confusing at first, but things started to make more sense as I played. I think a more interactive tutorial would be a solid addition. The switching between branches and fire was confusing at first, but is actually a pretty cool mechanic once I understood it. Overall, very solid game!

Server Defense by The Turtle 2020-04-21T18:49:38Z ♥ 1

Interesting premise for a tower defense game! I liked the theming of the game around protecting the server (although admittedly some of the towers don't make a ton of sense being inside a chip. Maybe the game needs an "internet" section before they reach the chip haha). I felt the balancing was off a bit. I went through the first 7 or 8 levels and never used anything besides the CA tower and the firewall. Everything else was so expensive it just felt out of reach! I ended up having no trouble just setting up a firewall and surrounding it with CA towers. Enemies only broke through the firewall once. PS I think there's a small bug where the super towers are more expensive on some levels than others.

StarDreck by xPutin88 2020-04-21T18:28:28Z ♥ 1

Simple gameplay, but the visuals and music are great! Could be really fun with some more mechanics added!
