Ecollapse by Daniel Robledo 2022-04-06T12:11:17Z ♥ 1

Cool game ! The art is super cute and its a cool take on the theme. I agree with the others that the tree growth could be a bit clearer visually. Well done, feels very polished :D

This is my favourite game in the jam so far ! A really unique idea that's very fun to play. It felt so polished as well, I love all the themes and the music. Well done :D

The graphics were cute and it looks super polished ! unfortunately it might be bugged :( there are way too many bonobos and I die pretty quick :(

I really like this game :D its fast paced and exciting and the music is great. My only frustration is when the AI pushes me into a corner and I get stuck :( great job !

Cool game ! I really like the controls, and the game has a very peaceful atmosphere. Unfortunately the results won't show up on the leaderboard for me but my high score was around 4000 :) My only complaint is that the camera kind of clips through the player model causing you to see little segments of it in the first person view. Other than that excellent job ! A really cool take on the theme. I'm especially impressed that you managed a start/end screen and a leaderboard in a jam game.

Great game ! the art is fantastic and I really liked the idea. Only suggestion is to randomly vary the pitch of the sound effects by a small amount each time they are played. It can sound a little odd hearing the exact same sound over and over. Good job !!

Adorable game, I always died due to lack of heat because sticks are the hardest to collect. The art is super cute

Rage Against The Cocoon by JoeDev 2022-04-05T15:45:53Z ♥ 1

Very funny and cute :) also super polished, I loved the little details like icons for the button press prompts and stuff. There was a weird bug I experienced where Josepi stood up on his hind legs like he was pretending to be human lmao. The dialogue was great and I would love to play Josepi again :D

What Have You Drawn? by MrPouletBZH 2022-04-05T08:50:24Z ♥ 5

This is such a cool game ! with a unique take on the theme and unique mechanics. Some of my favourite art so far this jam

Tominrigg Tactics by Dan Allison 2022-04-05T08:35:34Z ♥ 1

This is an amazing game ! especially for only 1 developer. The heroes have so much character, you did a great job making them all feel unique. P.S. the art is awesome

A Ship Out of Time by deighta 2022-04-05T00:21:57Z ♥ 0

The upgrade system is quite cool, one suggestion would be to telegraph where the enemies are going to come through just before they do, so you don't die unexpectedly. The music and art are awesome :D

Vertigo by Rolph 2021-04-28T13:40:26Z ♥ 1

The music, sound and graphics are awesome! i like the little hehe he does when you get a statue. Easy to understand and it feels very polished well done !

Mycelisation by bereg 2021-04-27T14:24:42Z ♥ 2

great game ! it looks and sounds awesome and was satisfying to complete :)

LD46 — Keep it alive (5)

Mr. Fluff by Nazorus 2020-04-24T11:28:13Z ♥ 1

Love this game! It reminds me of old school flash games. You could say you're keeping them alive since flash is dying this year. I love how there are no visible meters for Mr Fluff's wellbeing, getting to know his needs from the way he looks/moves makes me feel so attached!

Abandoned by GRaAL 2020-04-22T09:33:51Z ♥ 1

I'm really impressed that you managed to make an entertaining and challenging puzzle game in 72 hours! The music and mood is awesome. If you ironed out the bugs and polished it up a little I'd pay good money for it. Well done :)

LeapLash by Maumau 2020-04-22T09:17:48Z ♥ 2

Very fun game, I agree with the others that the controls could use some tweaking. I'm really impressed with the amount of content you were able to implement in 72 hours, so many different enemies and abilities! I'm a huge fan of the art style too. Well done :)

Bonfire 🔥 by ColinBellino 2020-04-21T12:59:01Z ♥ 2

I love this game. The art style is cute and distinct. The sound effects are fun, and given the limited time you did an awesome job exploring the different consequences of the puzzle mechanic. I also love the interpretation of the theme! Burning down huge chunks of forest is super satisfying so I'd love to see a score at the end of each level based on how many trees you burned down to encourage players to do so. Excellent job 5 stars

Chronocipher by Instafluff 2020-04-21T12:45:01Z ♥ 7

Wow, that is a crazy polished game, well done
