LD54 — Limited Space

Tiny Factory by AncientEntity 2023-10-04T02:37:58Z

There's a bit of a confusing first run or two, but once you get the hang of it the game feel pretty good to play!

Once you're deep in, it's hard to tell where the new in/out ports appear. Maybe a little animation or effect to draw your eye to them would help.

Hole in the Well by DecadeDecaf 2023-10-05T00:09:46Z

Nice game! There's a lot of variety in the wishes asked for / granted, and the voice lines are all quite good.

It did somewhat devolve into solely relying upon a money laundering scheme with that one wish-cheater - cleaning soiled socks is all well and good, but $55 beats out pretty much all other wishes, which made them rest seem inconsequential.

Jambulance by NuiN 2023-10-04T23:41:44Z

Loved it! I'm all for spinning the roulette and trying to go as far as possible in the oncoming traffic, and the chaotic explosive pileups that quickly ensue. Having the Jambulance be an absolute tank is also very fun to play with.

It felt like however there was little incentive to switch lanes. It feels like there should be an optimal way to play, by weaving between the three areas whenever it works best, but I can never get it to work - often I'm stuck in one lane for a long time (which is bad when I'm stuck in the forest lane). There could be F-Zero style WARNING arrows showing a major blockage on the middle lane, or a construction zone on the right lane, to force you off. Or alternatively, some kind of rare event that lets you gain a lot of speed if you can somehow make it there in time to catch it.

Looks good!

Some of the later levels can be pretty punishing, with very difficult & precise jumps right at the end of the level. They potentially could have used a mini-checkpoint or something to make retrying easier.

Fun little game! I love the simple yet effective expectation subversions you've put in there. The game is a bit too punishing though.

Very fun game that feels satisfying to fill up the train with cargo.

Could potentially be made smaller with less space, for a more faster-paced and frantic gameplay loop. At first I was racing as fast as I could, but then two levels found the time limit to be very forgiving, so I slowed down and tried playing more intelligently. It does feel a bit tiring to fill up the whole train, so maybe a smaller one would help with that.
