Battlecraft : Orcs and Famine by SoKette 2018-12-06T20:54:43Z ♥ 0

Hah, interesting game. I liked the dialog a lot. Nice one. 😆 (oh, and thanks for reviewing my game :) )

Dark Villagers by AwiX 2018-12-06T20:51:31Z ♥ 2

Excellent art and sound. A bit bewildered by the options when the game started. Could you guys do a Youtube video with a short playthrough? Looks like a lot of work went into this. 👍 (and thanks for reviewing my game 😀

Cosmo Buddy by easy82 2018-12-06T20:43:44Z ♥ 1

Agree with the idea that each crew member could be a different colour. What an outstandingly beautiful art and design though. Absolutely lush! 👍

Sacrificio Inc. by Reality Blind 2018-12-06T19:25:32Z ♥ 1

Very classy indeed. A nice theme take on a classic genre. Well done!

Lighter Than Air by simon.parzer 2018-12-06T19:03:45Z ♥ 2

What a delightful game! Nothing more to add really than has already been said. 👍

Superstar by mahalis 2018-12-06T10:46:20Z ♥ 1

What a beautiful game! Visually very appealing, and the mechanic (for the most part) works really well. The not-respawning thing seemed to happen to me after disconnecting a tentacle. The starfish just falls and WASD makes no difference so I wonder if it's happening earlier on? Anyway, great work!

Of Cows And Peasants by aplite 2018-12-06T10:41:36Z ♥ 0

Fun little game! I agree that a few little FX are begging to be put in. I also agree with Vivien that the hardness goes up quite dramatically. Well done!

A dangerous situation not to wear shoes in by wie_ 2018-12-06T10:35:09Z ♥ 1

Really nice idea, with some cool graphics and pleasant sound. Only crit I have is the previously mentioned collision issues, particularly hard when under pressure. A lot of work went into this, so well done!

Blue Sacrifice by aortega 2018-12-06T10:29:52Z ♥ 2

What a delightful little game! 😄 I love the sound (the giggle!) and graphics. Controls were slightly strange, as Pat said, I think WASD would be a little easier to use. Well done!

water ruins escape from cultist by Rs11s21n 2018-12-05T23:25:00Z ♥ 1

A very pretty game, with some nice ideas. I got stuck (literally) a few times in the scenery. Very nice work though. 👍

Vikrifice by Lucidus 2018-12-05T23:17:20Z ♥ 3

Very classy production! Vague memories of Shadow of the Beast playing this for some reason! Must be the tribal style music. Nice work!

Murdertrain by Grimani 2018-12-05T11:42:41Z ♥ 1

Haha, creepy game. When I picked up one of the carriages, it actually got attached to the side of the train which got it stuck at the level crossing. 😆 Tried again after looking at the video and worked out a bit more how to play it. Nice work!

NOPE by icxon 2018-12-05T11:36:14Z ♥ 0

Full marks for graphics, sound and mood! Very nice idea, a little bit like SPACE HULK but without a trusty bolt gun or power fist to fall back on! Good use of the theme too, well done!

Dungeon of Friendship by captainweeaboo 2018-12-05T11:17:38Z ♥ 2

This is game is far deeper than it looks on first inspection! I really like the graphics and sound, very unique feel to it. Nice use of the theme.

Memento Morty by okuar 2018-12-05T11:12:35Z ♥ 1

Haha, this is brilliant! At first I wasn't sure what was going on, but once I realised that it was clear how well thought out the game was. Well done!!

The Sun Scene by Xarras 2018-12-05T11:07:49Z ♥ 2

Very trippy indeed! I love the acoustic atmosphere and the art style. After reviewing several shooters or running games it's nice to see something more thoughtful and mystical.

Rocket of Souls by katamary 2018-12-05T11:02:02Z ♥ 1

Very good use of the theme! Some classy graphics and sound as well. Feels very epic.

Rogues Like Beer by NickZangus 2018-12-04T22:49:20Z ♥ 1

Absolutely superb! This feels really polished, incredible work for a LD jam. Any crits (small) have been made already, so all I can say is well done! 👍

Disassembly Line by Borja 2018-12-04T22:28:31Z ♥ 2

Quite tricky, and took a while to get used to the mechanic of firing them. But when I did I found it a good, nicely-rounded game. Well done!

Dinner with a hot chick by alobker 2018-12-04T12:16:53Z ♥ 3

Took a little while to work it out, but then realised this is a nicely crafted game. The graphics and sound are absolutely top-notch, well done! I'm having a weird issue selecting the characters though? Seems like the selection doesn't always update when you press the cursor? Well worth developing into a commercial game, I think!

Divine Favour by Willbl3pic 2018-12-04T12:04:27Z ♥ 1

Interesting idea, though a little more visual feedback, perhaps moving bar-chart and have the messages appear in a log at the bottom. Nice work though!

Astronaut's Journey by Radical Dog 2018-12-04T12:01:14Z ♥ 1

Very fun indeed! I liked the graphics and the elegant simplicity of the UI. As stated already, a little bit of sound would be nice. Very well done.

Runaway Bus by TheGameDev 2018-12-04T11:45:54Z ♥ 1

Haha, tough little game! Likewise, I like the way the bus steering handled, but perhaps a mechanic where the civilians at least attempt to avoid if they are a certain distance from the bus. So it really would be more down to bad driving than random civilian movement. Well done though!

A flight to the gallows by thomas-olsson 2018-12-04T11:15:03Z ♥ 0

Wow, a lot of work went into this! I ended up playing this for a long time, such was the narrative and atmosphere of the game. Really nice game, well done.

Sacrifice in Space by Marc Grabow 2018-12-04T10:46:24Z ♥ 1

Very high scores all round! Like a darker version of Lemmings 😆 Played it through and felt it was very well balanced. Could use some number keys to quickly jump through options. Very well done!

BlobSacrificator by Sarwin 2018-12-04T10:39:24Z ♥ 0

Congrats on your first LD! You have taken your first steps into a bigger world! Look forward to what you make in future. I think all the crits have already been made by everyone else, so welcome aboard!

Night of the BloodMoon by erebus 2018-12-04T10:32:27Z ♥ 1

Very well done, and well timed as I've just finished reading the collected works of HP Lovecraft. A little difficult juggling all the abilities, but not unfairly so. Tough game, and good fun, well done! 🐙

Mayan Headache by Constantin 2018-12-03T23:03:59Z ♥ 1

WOW! This is a seriously slick production. Quality I'd expect in a commercial game. Brilliant use of the theme. Tetris Attack, but with a Mayan theme. I'd (literally) buy that.

Finding the Lamb by John Gabriel 2018-12-03T20:42:44Z ♥ 1

Very atmospheric! I see we both went for the deep choir ambience. 😄 Whilst not skipping, it would be good to be able to speed up or complete the text a bit. Didn't solve the puzzle though. I'll keep trying though! Great work.

Path of (dis)abilities by yuriaicruz 2018-12-03T20:36:54Z ♥ 1

Good grief this is tough! But I love the concept though. If I have the arrow, am I missing a way to direct it on that turn or is it just the facing direction? Anyway, very slick production.

Volcano Rush! by moltanem2000 2018-12-03T16:28:08Z ♥ 0

Works great here! (Win 10) Very well done, love the audio (particularly when you touch something toasty 😉 ). Well done.

Icy Golems by jeroenpx 2018-12-03T16:23:14Z ♥ 1

Very VERY slick and polished production. Some great teasers in the level design too. Maybe a post-comp version with sound/music would complete the ensemble. Very nice work.

You Get Two by justalocalhero 2018-12-03T16:18:39Z ♥ 1

Hehe, cool concept. The mechanics work very nicely, and I like the way the UI updates when you drag cards. I think this would be a game worth developing post-compo. 👍

Free-Bug by egos 2018-12-03T16:15:46Z ♥ 1

I love these little sandbox games. I'd maybe have the bugs eat the closest food so you could work on more of a strategy? Nice though, well done.

The Kingsmen's Sacrifice by bugninja 2018-12-03T16:08:00Z ♥ 1

Haha, how delightfully arbitrary! 😆 Nice graphics and cute characters.

Seppo VS Goblins by Feilkin 2018-12-03T15:57:56Z ♥ 1

Haha, love the dagger mechanic, nice visual effect. Reminds me a little of the 80s games like Roland in the Caves for some reason.

Penance by Blodyavenger 2018-12-03T15:53:20Z ♥ 1

Well... I think this is my favourite thus far! Aside from some little issues with the minions, and finding the keys a bit unweildy, you did a fantastic job here. High scores all round, looks, sounds and plays GREAT!

Sometimes you starve I guess... by LANIK2000 2018-12-03T15:46:48Z ♥ 0

I'm keen to play this, but I get a small portion of the screen expanding the full size. Is there a .py I can edit to fix this? (Win10, high DPI screen, if that helps?)

Sheeps Empire by net3ton 2018-12-03T15:36:27Z ♥ 1

I love games with a swarming behaviour mechanic! Simple and fun, you did a great job here. Are the lighter areas of the map harder to traverse? I noticed some curious behaviour sometimes where they slowed down in places. Anyway, great work!

Sirius Galactica by Call_me_Nutty 2018-12-03T15:01:00Z ♥ 1

A nice play on a classic theme! At first I was like, "hmm, galax", but you fit it into the theme very well, and hence a high score from me. Great fun. Well produced. 👍

All Alone, On This Plateau. by Anyonebacon 2018-12-03T14:57:32Z ♥ 1

I love to come across something like this once in a while on LD. I'd consider just silence rather than the sound when you hit space to make it a little more poignant. Very well done.

Limbs are Limited! by EggshellDog 2018-12-03T14:53:05Z ♥ 1

Haha! Quite aside from the fact the character reminds me of Terrance & Philip from South Park, this is actually quite a tricky game with some nice features like the slow-mo. Full marks for fun and innovation.

Vulcano by backyard-dev 2018-12-03T14:49:56Z ♥ 1

Well done you guys! Great concept. I like the sound effect as well. 😆

Slime MUST Survive by NinjaCatz 2018-12-03T14:43:18Z ♥ 2

Oooh crikey this is tough. I love the theme, graphics, music and humour! Once I'm past the first boulder, I can't onto the next ledge. I'm sure this is intentional, but I'm uncertain what to do here? Great game though.

The Last Grinder by yush 2018-12-03T13:52:59Z ♥ 0

Loved the sound effects. Weird that I got 4280 million just like the screenshot... Nice work. :)

Sacrifice Ranch by Chaoseed 2018-12-03T13:50:01Z ♥ 1

Haha, having watched the series Hannibal recently this brought back horrible memories. 😝 Really nice music as well.

VoidOver by NightmaresDev 2018-12-03T13:46:07Z ♥ 0

Hehe, a slight Binding of Isaac vibe here? Had fun playing this, nice work, particularly for one hour!

ANKH by morriss 2018-12-03T13:41:57Z ♥ 0

Had a good time playing this. The graphics are great. I passed the first few levels but not sure if in the intended way? :)

Doom Trails by kamikaziuk 2018-12-03T13:36:32Z ♥ 1

Very slick indeed! Haha, this reminds me why family games at Christmas always end up in arguments. 😜 Great work. Would be nice if some extra cards or something could be used. Colorized already mentioned that above my comment and I agree.

End of mankind by jijaweb 2018-12-03T13:25:55Z ♥ 0

Yep, you need to set your game Public!

Lost In The Flames by WongKongPhooey 2018-12-03T11:59:41Z ♥ 1

Haha, so it turns out I made the right choice not being a fireman! :D Very good sense of urgency with the music and visuals. At first was a bit confused about not being able to move vertically, but soon realised how the movement mechanic operated. Great job here.

The Price of Crops by Nakami 2018-12-03T11:37:22Z ♥ 1

Wow, this looks great. And a lot of work went into it. I got a farmer stuck at the top building? Couldn't get hold of him again? Anyway, the rest of the game works great. Very high polish, well done!

Rablat by Sodaro 2018-12-03T11:29:03Z ♥ 1

What a curious little game! I liked the ending. Very well done. (bit small on my monitor though, possible to have a larger version?)

SATIATE! by Secretmapper 2018-12-03T11:22:36Z ♥ 0

Took me a while, but good fun once I worked it out. Excellent graphics and sound.

Knight Soul Redemption by BGameDev 2018-12-03T11:18:45Z ♥ 0

Curious game, nice graphics. Not sure if shield was meant to protect from projectiles? Great work though.

Archibald's Snobbish Journey by Thomas_Bringer 2018-12-03T11:09:33Z ♥ 1

Great use of the theme! Love the commentary as well as you chuck things out. Great job.

Helpless Haggis by David Hunter 2018-12-03T11:02:53Z ♥ 0

Nice! Lemmings, that takes me back! Had a few physics issues, but otherwise I think you did a great job in the timescale. Nice number of levels.
