I have only unlocked one more power (the setting-things-on-fire one). Not sure what I should do next or whether there is more progress...

Cool game! I like the randomly generated map. I also like it that some rooms are overlapped so there are actually more space than it seems on the screen. Nice work!
Cool game! The control takes some time to master. Currently I only go up to 1.56x speed, I think.
Very good looking game with nice music and sound effect! I feel it will be the best when you play it during your leisure time. The game is a bit short though, and becomes hard quite easily. I aimed for becoming a large drop like the orange ones but soon found it nearly impossible... But overall, it's still an awesome game!
Very polished game! Love the graphics!
The game's a bit chaotic, but lots of fun. It's kinda hilarious though the theme is sort of dark at the same time. Nice work!
I think you can actually fly out of the stage by colliding with each other... But even if it is a bug it is still quite fun.
Cute game! It will be better if a round can last longer.
The game's simple but it's so funny! XDDDDD
Love the lighting effect!
I like the art a lot!
This game is really cool looking!
Great idea! But perhaps the game balance needs some update. Sometimes I'd rather stay in the on-screen area than go to venture in the maze to find turret. But nonetheless, this is still a great game!
Cool game! Though I'm not very sure what's the strategy behind it... The people's sound effect is cute!
Nice looking game! I finally solved the puzzle. I think you could have done better if given more time. Do you plan to keep developing it?
The audio is impressive! Gameplay is hilarious in that it takes place in the credits... And I died a lot... LOL
Hahaha, wocao! Zhen de shi tai gao xiao le! 4.5/5
That's three games on one screen! Nice idea! XD
If there are some objectives added, it will be more interesting, otherwise people will probably just look down at the map all time.
By the way, the looking-down-and-see-map mechanics actually reminds me of Dreadhalls, an Oculus Rift horror game where you have to look down to see the map.
I couldn't figure out what to do and just before I gave up I found where to commit my first step, and the item I got feels like a magic rod or something and did everything... And everything you couldn't use before became useful! I really had fun. Nice game!
The game mechanics reminds me of a horror game where you can only see the ghost through your cellphone camera. (I forget the name but it's not Fatal Frame...)
Sometimes I just focus too much on the cellphone screen and didn't see that there is a wall in front of me, which is actually very interesting. I like this game mechanics a lot!
I can't stop laughing. XDDDDDDD
I like the art style a lot!
It's a bit hard for me. But nonetheless, it's a solid game!
Actually, I didn't realize the game has a reference to 2048 until I got into the game for some while and wonder why some dead enemies merge into a new one... Nice innovation there!
I have tried to make a spacecraft docking simulation, too, but it was much simpler, and it was in 2D with simply scaling the sprite. Yours is much better than the one I made, and it looks more professional and realistic. Nice work!
It's very hard... 205 death and I have only made it to the stage of your first screenshot... The double jump is a challenge to really master.
Overall the game is really good. Things look a bit simple at first, but soon you will find that the graphical effect is amazing! Also, I'm amazed that you can make and test out so many levels in just 72 hours.
This game is awesome! I really thought the game was glitched out and didn't have a very good first impression actually... But after I found out the truth, the game became awesome! This is now one of my highest rated game due to its innovation!
Very nice audio!
Very lovely pixel art~!
It's a bit random but I like the "waifu" reference XD
Beautiful game! But I think I shouldn't judge it by the standard of games. It is more like a piece of art than game.
But let's speak in terms of game standards first anyway. The graphics is extremely good. Audio is awesome, too. In terms of art... The art is kind of abstract for me... And I'm not an art student so I'm not sure what I should say about it... But I'd like to think of it as a piece of poetic modern art. Nice work!
Nice platformer game. I like it that all the levels are actually on the stage - in one screen, but just at different depth level. Very innovative on that point!
This game is one of the best I've ever seen in the Jam! How innovative the game mechanics is just blows my mind!
I like it that the game almost always has achievement of another magnitude to reach. One thing I'd like the game to add is to put a resource limit based on how much of the galaxy you control and once resource limit is reached, mine growth and other things will slow down very significantly.
The art style is impressive!
I only make it to Day 2... But I gotta say this game is awesome!
This game has a great atmosphere. It feels very desperate and screwed. The gameplay depends on luck quite a bit, but in a war life or death depends on luck quite a bit, too, which just makes this game more atmospheric!
The audio and graphics are consistent with the game atmosphere, too. The audio is awesome. The graphics may be simple but fits the environment well with its black and grey color.
Indeed, this is like a small version of "The War of Mine".
Nice topic, in that space trash IS some kind of problem that is attracting more and more attention nowadays.
The audio is awesome. The background music somewhat reminds me of Touhou game series' music... I don't know if you have heard of them?
One flaw is that when you should hit the arrow and whether you have hit one are not very clearly indicated. Others are good.
I absolutely love the effect of falling cherry blossom petals. It is beautiful! Audio is also very good. The game mechanics also has some innovation in it.
Really cool effects!
My best is 2... ;_;
This game has a very good feel of environment. But the control is kind of disorienting and rooms kind of look the same everywhere... Also, maybe locked doors can have a locked sound when you try to open them. But overall it is still good and the ending is surprising. I think the camera (looking at the television) is also tilting subtly which makes you feel dizzy, which is a good game mechanics. Nice take on the theme, too.
This is very innovative! Though I didn't accomplish anything remotely close to your screenshot, I really enjoyed it! Also, I happen to watch a lot of MMD videos recently so I really like the theme you choose. The animation is very fluent, too.
Looks very cool!
I don't know what your whole idea is, but I feel this alone can be already made into a desktop app or something. I had a really good mood just watching the glass sphere after being through some tiring days. Nice work!
The graphics is amazing! Audio blends with the environment of the game, too. I'm deeply impressed!
Sometimes it takes some luck to beat the level, but that's all good. The audio aids to build the environment very well, which is pretty impressive. The fact that this game is in 3d is amazing, too. I also did a top-down view game but I did it in 2d because I don't think I will have enough time if I were to build it in 3d...
The best I did is a wine bottle plus two glass cups. It's kind of hard but a very fun game with nice physics! I also like the title screen LOL
Good graphics! And I like the bullets bouncing off the snowman and it seems to do damage to another snowman, too? Though it's not very practical in game, it is still very fun!
Reminds me of Corpse Party!
Nice take on the theme LOL.
I feel the friction is too small so that I have gone off the edge several times by myself LOL.
Maybe I'm just bad at games LOL.
Nice game. But sadly I cannot make it to the end ;_;
There is much innovation on art style and gameplay. Nice work!
Very nice visual novel! The audio is impressive!
Cool game. Quite hard. I have not made it through the water yet...
Very innovative game mechanics of having to push the screen and actually change the game world by doing that.
I like games with simple graphics. The limit of how far you can see makes it really hard for me, though.
Very nice idea. The performance issue is a bit annoying, though. The motion blur will be really cool if there isn't such an issue.
I love games with acoustic clues! The atmosphere really got me at first. But I guess there is no really penalty for seeing or not seeing monsters? So soon I got a lot of balls LOL. Maybe some more complex mechanics can be implemented, but since the game is made in such a short time, I guess it is still good. Also, this game has a quite innovative take on the theme.
I've played it through. It's got a super innovative game mechanics! You can feel many things are happening if you are familiar with RPG games. Though sometimes it becomes kind of hard to keep track of everything.
The game is very polished, too. The audio is good. But the most impressive of all is the unique game mechanics.
Really innovative take on the theme!
Wow, this game is really phenomenal considering it is made within such a short time. And there is some skill curve to mastering this game, such as thinking fast to pick tools quickly, making the right color, etc. Oh, the coloring combination is an amazing mechanics!
It's so cute >.< Kawaii desu ne!
Though the game is not long, the graphics and audio blend together to make a very consistent-feeling environment. The game style may be simple, but the game is very smooth and well-polished. I absolutely love it!
I'm impressed that you can make such a good game in such a short time!
Control's not working for me... But I like the unique art of the game very much! The audio is also very good. Together they create a very environmental feel for the game.
It's very hard to predict what is coming, when to jump, when to speed up and when to speed down. But maybe that's just me being not very good at games... Overall, it's still a nice game.
OMG, this game is a great joke in many ways! The idea alone worth a gold medal! Also, the background music is mood-soothing.
Very good looking game! It's amazing that you build it from scratch!
This is as hard as an "I wanna" game! No wonder the title starts with "I wanna"...
I was actually attracted here by the kawaii-ness of the cover LOL. Nice artwork!
The game is also fun. The directness of opening sequence made me laugh!
I was expecting some use on optical illusion in game mechanics because I saw that you can rotate the scene 360 degree... Anyway, considering the little time Game Jam gives, this game is still very impressive, from graphics, to audio, to the feel of the game... And I haven't solved the game's puzzle yet, so I'm going back to playing it!
Great job!
I see, so you have to shoot enemies to get upgrade... But still, the control is a little bit hard for me. It's not just that the fire rate is a bit quirky at the beginning, but also the acceleration of moving is a bit hard for me to master. Bullets don't protect me very well and I always haste to get upgrade so end up dying a lot. LOL
The audio is impressive. Nice work!
When the topic first came up I was thinking: this is not letting people do 3d first-person games! But this game just amazed me by taking on the theme in a seemingly impossible way!
The game looks a bit old-styled and runs fluently. It kind of reminds me of old first-person shooter like Doom where you cannot tilt the camera.
In a word: great job!
I did a top-down view shooter, too, but I was primarily focusing on different kinds of gun firing mechanics. This game is more on funniness. What do you mean "you lose your boobs" XD
Yea, the game's a bit laggy, but looks absolutely beautiful!!
So hard!
Nice work! I've never seen any kind of game like this. It's innovative!
Surprisingly it's very addictive!
This one looks absolutely cool, and the audio is awesome. But I don't have gamepad controllers and can't find friend to play with me TvT. It's a pity I cannot rate this.
Nice audio, though.
I feel generally 3D First Person platformer games are not very easy to play. Looking at things through screen is as if you look at things with one eye, which makes it hard to measure the distance.
Control's a bit hard, but I dodged all the monsters and made it to the end. LOL
Could be turned into a horror game!
Very ambitious as a game that is made within 72 hours! No sound is kind of a pity, though. Could have added some easy ambient sound such as sea wave sound, sea gull's sound and then the game will have much more mood! But overall, 5 out of 5!
That's pretty ambitious as a game finished in 72 hours.
Don't understand some mechanics. But overall, nice game!
I've done a game with similar mechanics before, so finding the direction of treasure isn't hard for me. But I got killed by some monsters that are so far away from me that I cannot tell if they're staring at me, and then I had to start over, which is kind of frustrating. However, as a game made in 48 hours it is amazing enough! So I shouldn't ask too much from it. Perhaps for further development, some mechanics of zooming the sight or escaping a monster can be added.
Nice art!
I kind of wonder how does the particles arrange themselves. Is there gravity or some similar physics effect implemented?
Kind of a hard game but very addictive!
Why a sculpture of Lenin? XD
The audio is impressive! The radar sound makes me really feel like being at deep sea.
This is going to be so bad for color-blind people :( But anyway, the game mechanics is nice, simple and innovative :)
The submarine moves so slow that I got a bit impatient after playing for a while... But overall, really awesome!
Really like the paper-like dinosaur art!
Nice rain drop effect!
Nice simple art. Nice simple game mechanic. Great music!
This game is the funniest I've played XD
Nice physics effect. The tentacle should be made stronger, though.
Excellent game, except that it's kind of difficult for me...
Nice audio. The game kind of depends on luck sometimes.
I feel it's kind of hard and kind of depends on luck. Nevertheless, this game is interesting!
Cool look and cool idea!
Runs kind of slow on my laptop. But good game.
Control's a bit hard for me.
I'd love to try some games made on unreal engine. But unfortunately my laptop is not good enough to run it ;_; so I cannot rate your game. When I run it, the frame rate is so low that I cannot bear... I hope I can get a new laptop soon.
The game runs very fluently. Game difficulty balance is very good, too. I like it!
I love the jumping and how the rocks look.
Love the mechanics of 2D walking plus 3D rotation!
So moe! I love it X3
Wow! Never too much to say this game is awesome!
I like the feature of clicking the options instead of typing like an old-school text adventure.
The game looks epic!!
The map is big and makes player have quite some exploration to do. Surprised that this is made within 72 hours.
This game's super hard, but fun to play. Is it supposed to be a game like "I wanna be the guy"?
Love that anime-style title screen! Kawaii!
Pretty cute! I like it!
My laptop is not good enough to run it... Perhaps you should specify a minimum system requirement to run it? Such as requirement for processor, RAM, video card...
The control is hard. But I assume it's supposed to simulate the reality?
Super creative! Can't stop laughing while playing.
See great potential for further development of the game!
This game has great potential for further development!
Just as I think there is nothing new, I fished the Ancient Monster! Nicely done!
That's a huge map! After beating the game several times I find that I still haven't fully explored it. Nicely done!
Nice idea to alternate between A/D to swim!
Combining flash and unity platforms is amazing!
So true ;_;
Very innovative game! And it is sort of intellectual challenging to play (and hence must be intellectual challenging to design). It reminds me of a Chinese saying, that a cunning hare makes three burrows (狡兔三窟).
Nice graphics and music. And the idea is super creative! Overall, amazing as the game is made within 48 hours.
The most creative game I've seen (lol)! Nice graphics and music!
Wow, this is probably better than some games designed by human. The AI is amazing!
It's never too much to say that this game is purely awesome from every aspect!
The background music is awesome!
After I know the dash trick the game feels easier. While I used to think the game is hard, now I find the level difficulty balance is very well done and challenges players in a good way!
Nice game. I'm gonna play with my friends to see who can get a higher score!
LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon (3)
Badass Inc by deepnight 2015-05-04T16:15:00
The pixel-glowing effect looks awesome!
Dead Pixel by lebrokholic 2015-05-04T15:59:00
Is the second level (the level in the last screenshot) impossible to beat? I ran out of pixel and couldn't find source to replenish it. Judging from the file size, there shouldn't be many levels anyway...
Still, I like the game very much! The concept alone is very good and I like the simplistic style!
Adventures in Spacetime! by TheFuntastic 2015-04-23T22:47:00
Control is a bit difficult and it is not very obvious what the unconventional weapon does at first. But after figuring out how things work it is quite fun to play. I am entertained. The music is really good.
