LD50 — Delay the inevitable (10)

Too Cute for Space Fights by YogurtTheHorse 2022-04-05T18:00:11Z ♥ 3

The art is excellent & very detailed, & the chosen music, while unfitting to the situation, is actually quite humorous because of how thematically out of place it is. I also really like the mechanic & concept of controlling around mechs to fix certain parts of a ship.

However, the gameplay itself doesn't do much to motivate the player to play the game. I assume fixing parts of the ship slows down the amount of time until the game ends, but that is never directly communicated, & the game doesn't give you any idea of your performance or time spent playing before booting you back to the title screen. Having the amount of time the player lasted in some form of end screen would make the game much more enjoyable to replay. Other than that, having some markers that show you what parts of the ship need to be fixed at any given time would be nice. Good job!

Void Prison by Tadas Migauskas 2022-04-05T14:02:06Z ♥ 3

This might be the best game I've played in the jam so far. The game loop & design is very well thought out & fits the theme perfectly, everything is super polished, the art looks great, the sound is good, excellent job on this one.

Cooperate with your shadow! by mnikn 2022-04-04T17:58:15Z ♥ 1

Art is well-detailed for a 48 hour jam game, & music is pleasing to listen to. Unfortunately, I got stuck on the level where it introduces how to control the delay time. Good job though!

Wormy by PetTurtle 2022-04-04T16:23:38Z ♥ 2

Great job. The procedural generation with the dirt was impressive, & the music & art were very charming. Well done.

Soak 'Em Out by Cruise Elroy 2022-04-04T16:16:10Z ♥ 2

Excellent work. The art, music, & presentation overall is very well-made, & the gameplay of avoiding water is fun & engaging. Great job.

Distract The Cat by danashrulez 2022-04-04T16:12:12Z ♥ 1

The art is well-made & expressive, & the gameplay of getting the laser on the mirror is decently entertaining. The time between losing & the retry screen feels a little long, but other than that this was a fun little game!

Battery Low by Milestone Games 2022-04-04T16:07:52Z ♥ 4

I'll edit my comment when the game is unlocked & leave a review, the title & description are enticing.

Heat Death by RoofloorWall 2022-04-04T16:06:27Z ♥ 1

Excellent job. The gameplay of moving around & hitting the white shapes while avoiding the red ones is fun, &, while still a bit unexplained; I still picked up on it quickly. The theming of the star exploding is also well executed, & the ending cinematic of the star bursting out with beams of light was exceptionally well done.

One Bite by Lenan 2022-04-04T15:59:30Z ♥ 1

Very polished, juicy, & fun to mow down hordes of enemies. Would've been cool to see some more strategy to the gameplay, like having angry powerups dotted across the map or having enemies that can only be bitten when calm. Fun game!

The Last Stand by Geojax 2022-04-04T15:52:06Z ♥ 2

The art is nice & consistent, especially with the expressive main character. However, the gameplay is very repetitive & unengaging, & after a while it just felt more sensible to not play at all to get to the end quicker. Good job though.
