The Unidentified Flying Cat Burglars! by Krassenstein 2023-01-15T23:42:29Z

Was a lot of fun and started getting crazy near the end. Audio set the tone very well and made me feel like I was playing an old school arcade game.

The only thing that felt super weird for me was the bounds at the top of the map. Felt like it stopped without any indication and sometimes the enemies would spawn right at the edge and was unable to be hit.

Bungee Pumpkin Harvester by KOHCEPBA 2023-01-22T22:18:57Z

Interesting concept and the sound effects are 10/10 lol

The bungee physics was a bit weird at times but it added to the charm. I could see this working with the purpose of crazy physics or tuning them a bit more to be more strategic and slower paced.

If the crazy physics is what you are after maybe reducing the bungee count to just 1 and having it based on momentum / slingshotting across the map would be cool.

For the slower paced it could be more puzzle like and deliberate on the bungee positions, similar to when you get the multiple point grappling hooks in Terraria and have to hit them in certain orders to maneuver to a spot.

M.E.A.T. Rancher 2199 by Brendo 2023-01-22T22:33:19Z

Was super fun, polished, and had me zoned in for awhile.

I wish the camera was a bit more zoomed out though, I think it would make it lean towards the arcade flow a bit better. If it were slower paced and required planning of the routes the zoomed in camera would work well.

Sound and music was very nice and kept the flow going the entire time.

Maybe some rough indicator of fullness near the harvester would be helpful also, like a x/4 bar graph or something to let me know im getting closer and need to pay attention to the limits.

Halloween Harvest by muriel 2023-01-10T19:22:50Z

Was super fun and fast paced the more nights that passed!

The shotgun was satisfying to use and made me feel like I was playing doom again.

I think the fragments and the red spirits as they are rebuilding themselves should have the collision disabled. I got stuck in weird places alot after gunning down a few of them near walls and corners. Also maybe a more transparent material when they switch to spirit form.

The small pumpkins seemed to shoot off into space sometimes if they got hit while being carried. Some way to throw or launch the pumpkins back to the base would be super cool though, maybe being able to throw it in the air and shoot it or just a special throw button. That way you can juggle them back to the base if you cleared a few stolen ones in the later levels.

The sounds themselves was good but I think the higher end of them needed to be EQ'd. It was a little harsh on the ears with such a spikey sound.

Kudos on the tutorial also, it explained everything pretty well and didn't leave any questions.

Overall it was a blast and I could see a full game working out with some more mechanics added. Sort of like nazi zombies mixed with orcs must die / base defense hybrid.

Bas by salmonmoose 2023-01-09T05:30:08Z

Thoroughly enjoyed it! Had some neat mechanics that could be expanded on for a lot of interesting puzzles.

The jumping sound itself wasn't bad, I think it's high end just needs to be tuned down a bit to make it easier on the ears.

The vine and mushroom growing animations could be sped up a little bit since you are experimenting with the different seed positions. It starts getting tedious waiting on it, especially if you need to restart a level.

The first mushroom part was a clever one that took me a few tries but was a good puzzle, It might would work better later on after you have time to use the mushroom seed a bit more.

I could see this doing well as a casual puzzler or a platformer if you wanted to go that route.

Shoo! by Lex 2023-01-09T05:55:36Z

Those sounds are fantastic

I couldn't make it past level 3, seemed like I was too slow to cover all the crops in time even when spamming the dash button.

The shoo thing when mixing with the dash felt a bit clunky, I think because it moves you forward a tiny bit and it has to wait until the dash is finished. Maybe doing the shoo as an aoe like drunkardwolf mentioned but being able to do it mid dash would help alot.

I think removing the dash and just increasing the movement speed to compensate or something would feel more fluid than needing to constantly spam the dash to keep up, especially since you do it on cooldown with no cost.

I'm curious how it would feel with the camera locked in the center up high looking over the whole field, kinda like a mario party game.

Really enjoyed it though! Was a fun little glimpse into the painful life of a scarecrow lol

Mow Rider Deluxe by JavaSaurus 2023-01-09T06:31:26Z

Somehow this was relaxing and stressful at the same time lol I wanted to keep the lines straight so badly but the tractor wasn't having it.

Was a super neat concept though, makes me think of farming simulator mixed with overcooked. I could see having a farmer running around jumping between machines and having to hastily do everything while chaos ensues.

I did have some chugging once I got into the middle of the field though. There are a few things in unity you may can check out for mesh instancing if you havnt yet that could help.

Good to see you and your son had some fun with it!

Harvest of the Gods by jitspoe 2023-01-16T00:06:54Z

The development process was an interesting ride to say the least lol. I would call this a successful experiment, you were fair about the pros/cons of it all.

Game wise I felt like the lighting hit box was a bit too small, I see a previous comment about it being a raycast. Maybe a box cast or something wouldve felt better, especially on stage 2 where alot more movement is required.

The character movement seemed okay if you were at a standstill or moving slowly, I think there's some weird residual velocity built up once you get to moving fast and it makes turning very clunky.

Overall it was an entertaining and informative experience to watch it play out and then play the result.

Night Harvest by EvilScotsman 2023-01-25T04:18:21Z

Well done atmosphere and spooky vibes. I think with more content and mechanics it could make an interesting horror story.

The sounds were good but not having a fade between the engine sound restarting was super jarring.

Having it pitch black unless in the light gives it a sense of the unknown but maybe having a small tint of moonlight on the field and catching a glimpse of things moving would be another option to add to the paranoia.

Overall I enjoyed it and it was a refreshing change from most of the other games.

Click On Fish by Pomo 2023-01-11T00:46:17Z

Thought I was gonna roll up on that leaderboard... the leaderboard rolled up on me

Was a fun little game, it switched from peace to stress without me realizing until it was too late lol The leaderboard addition was really nice. The violent stab animation was 10/10.

I played on an ultra-widescreen and it had weird bars on the side that did the same effect when you clip out of bounds. Not taking any points for that just wanted to toss it out there so you are aware for future projects. Fish.png

Night of the Zombie Chickens by Jonqs 2023-01-11T00:30:50Z

Made it to wave 7, had a blast. Was satisfying running over a whole crowd of chickens and hearing the constant bawkbawkbawkbawk lol

Felt like the difficulty ramped up super fast near the end and it was hard to keep up but stuff like that can be fixed with balancing.

Overall was a neat concept, I could see adding more defensive and base stuff alongside incorporating the farming side like you mentioned in another comment and it being a fun roguelike/lite game

HARRR Vests by Lomby 2023-01-15T23:12:47Z

I'm not sure what I was expecting but it wasn't that lmao Was a very interesting concept and clever use of the theme.

I feel like mouse control would've worked a bit better than WASD but it wasn't bad.

This concept would be hilarious to have some Surgeon Simulator influence and there be utter chaos and tools flying everywhere while you are trying to stitch something.

Carrot Jack by RobLaro 2023-01-10T18:58:43Z

I felt like the frequency of the sickle was a bit off compared to how many times you actually needed it.

I went the more fast paced route and tried to keep up with the carrot compared to stockpiling a bunch at one time and I kept getting jebaited by rng lol.

Maybe some kind of % or bar indicator for the big carrot would be helpful, there were a few times I tried to sickle early thinking it was the last few I needed but it kept getting bigger.

Overall it was pretty fun, especially when you try the fast paced route.

Art and animations were polished nicely!

Chaos Mode by vacuum_packed 2023-01-25T04:04:34Z

The premise is so simple but so well done lol Lighting and models are clean and crisp.

Tough Luck Mr. Harvard by smashcrate 2023-01-09T18:21:04Z

All Mr.Harvard wanted to do was dance and commit felony tax fraud but everyone has it out for him.

Seemed like all the equipment that wasnt the rocket and laser beam got replaced almost instantly.

Flying controls worked okay but the shooting the direction you are moving is always a weird one for me. Maybe adding mouse support to shoot at angles no matter the flying direction would feel more fluid.

I could see it being super fun as a roguelike/lite type of game. Would have to plan out and make decisions on equipment and drops and stuff as you go. Maybe implement the tax fraud thing into it and you have to run your lighting collection business while evading the tax collectors lmao.

Really enjoyed it and the storyline :laughing:

Bloody Roots by FrogtownMatt 2023-01-22T21:58:45Z

The intro had me all over the place, didn't know what to expect going in but it was fun lol. The glowing indicator for low blood helped a lot during the frantic moments.

My only issue was the model for the fencing was very hard to see and I kept getting stuck on it wondering why I couldn't move anymore.

Essence Regulation by Augmotic 2023-01-09T02:42:38Z

Yea it is definitely missing alot in the "what is happening" category. Kinda feels like this lmao 4c0a2w.jpg

@salmonmoose I kinda just kept adding player mechanics and it indeed does get overwhelming to get hit by it all at once. Would be good to have a lead up tutorial to limit the abilities as you get the feel for them. There was someone that played through it without using any of the spells cause they didnt know about them already lol

@lex Getting hit just reloads the map so you can keep playing. I was wanting to implement a damage type system but got behind and just settled with "you get hit you die" approach at the last minute. It does cause alot of confusion when they sneak up on you lol

Thank you both for giving it a play and the reviews!

Bloody Boxes by Augmotic 2023-05-03T01:02:55Z

@xema4789 @zgragselus @batisdark yea the objective isn't very clear at all sorry. I ended up switching directions twice due to the first 2 ways not working very well as mechanics. So the "keep going until you lose" is what I settled with right near the end sadly lol. Thanks for giving it a play!
