It was hard to figure out what to do without any instruction. Also, you don't always know which wall can be traversed or not. Overall, the game has amazing visual effects and fits the theme perfectly. Great job!
SQUARES! The visual effects here are giving so much depth in the level design, I loved it. The voice acting was pretty fun and overall it's a good entry! I got the bad ending : (
Nice entry! Similarly to many physic based puzzle games, I just don't like when there's no determinist way to solve a puzzle (By that, I mean that you need to be do almost pixel perfect moves and collisions).
Gosh so many cactus... Roads are not the same anymore! Two games in one, pretty cool concept! Also, the sound effects mysteriously gave a soul to this game... weird feeling.
Is that doctor eggman at the beginning? :D Fun little game! Missing music and sounds as said in the description, but a LOT of content for so few hours... impressive.
We could feel the Portal influence here, really nice! Was that a cellshading shader? (black borders etc.) The visual effects were surprisingly well done!
Very cute graphics. The story mode did not work quite well for me (nothing to avoid?), so I played the game mode and it was pretty fun! Good entry overall :)
Nice visual effects! The concept yet simple is coupled with a tricky gameplay that makes the game a bit too hard. It was still a very good entry with a sweet peaceful music B)
This game is so CUTE. I love when the cat sit down... even though most of the time it's not for long. Gosh streets are so crowded and dangerous in this city! Maybe the collisions are a bit too exaggerated, I died multiple times still being far from the enemy.
Except the fact that the background music made me think about someone brushing his teeth, this game was REALLY FUN TO PLAY. Jumping is a tricky move since the camera inverse left and right :o
Is there anything else to do beside talking to the other guys? Maybe it hasn't been finished in time (too bad, but it in that case it seemed to be a pretty good start :)).
One of the best entries I tried so far... excellent work! Here's the only thing I'd improve: Rotating the 3D object is sometimes not working well. To me, a simple button press should rotate in a given direction.
The jumps are tricky and I unfortunately got stuck at the place shown on the main screenshot (red). Wish I could go further but maybe too hard for me :) (What about a walkthrough?). Otherwise, very good music (too bad it stops!), interesting design as well.
Very fun concept! Only drawback: I would have seen a different way to change color though. Having all these keys to press is not very convenient... Good job :)
Cute little game, maybe a little more work on the platformer engine but overall I liked it. The idea of levels appearing in front of your character are giving a real plus-value to thing game, and that for both the graphical and gameplay experiences.
Hard but has a very interesting replay value. The graphics are sublime and the global atmosphere is pretty awesome (too bad the music stops at some point). Great game overall!
This game is so funny! The Harlem Shake made my day :D (Although you can't really finish the game since the timer was going way out of the bar and I could not grab anything).
Maybe a ranking system would make the game a bit more challenging, to me it was pretty easy to score something above ~100 and more, maybe this is actually a shitty score.
Nicely done! A bit frustrating when you finally reach the end of introduction and still have to start over from the beginning at the first mistake. It should be possible to jump on a platform from the back ^.^
[SPOILER] Any clue for how to beat the game? I think the trick is to close everything exploiting a bug. So far I could duplicate many icons but not really make them disappear. Maybe gathering all the icons in one window you could close would do the trick but I couldn't manage to do that...
We can feel the Limbo influence here, but with an awkwardly peaceful music. I was surprised to reach the end of the game so fast... but that means it was a good one!
Here we have a very good concept implemented with good retro graphics and music. However the game was overall too hard and therefore too frustrating. Very good job!
My mind got really blown by the graphic style. It's truly unique and perfectly fits the them. There's also a lot of hidden work since this has been made in HTML5/Three.js, and is cleary not laggy at all. Is there any specific goal in this game though? I still liked it a lot!
All my congratulations for the visual effects. There's some hard work over there and it should be rewarded! Only major reproach: the controls are very approximative... you get very easily stuck in a given block.
Even though it was not designed as a sandbox game at first, I enjoyed this very quiet and peaceful game for the nice visual you can generate. Like other people, I got stuck on puzzle 3, probably too mind bending for me. I think the game mechanic should be explained with a step by step tutorial to lead the player. Good game!
Great way to improve on a yet simple and well known concept. My big reproaches here: - The game resolution is way too large, on laptops it's pretty hard to finish some levels - The snake speed is a bit too high
The controls are pretty hard to take in hand, and I was a bit confused on what to do at first... In the end, very nice mood, the psychedelic but yet simplistic aspect of the graphics and level design make this game fit the theme.
At first I thought it was a game with a creepy/scary atmosphere and the fire in the bar almost made me scream :D All the interactions with the NPC and the background are a big plus. Overall, very nice mood, really too bad it's not completely finished ^^

That game reminded me the space ship course in Kingdom Heart, when you have to build a ship using blocks. Also, that would have been fun to be able to customize your spaceship between each jumps (with upgrades, repairs etc.). Btw nice IA!

Retro Style exactly how I love it! Nice game.
Budget Squad by deepnight 2013-05-11T19:34:00
Outstanding graphics! Too bad there's no two player mode, it would be rad!

Amazing entry! Loved the concept.
Pure Platformer by K1kk0z90 2013-05-11T19:23:00
A classic game: Hard and minimalist. Maybe lacking of a little something that would make the difference. Solid programming!
Shape of shades by allinlabs 2013-05-11T19:12:00
It was hard to figure out what to do without any instruction. Also, you don't always know which wall can be traversed or not.

The Lamp by Catman 2013-05-11T19:08:00
Wow, the atmosphere was crazy. This game almost awakened my inner kid fears :O
Very good entry.
Hito by lucas_gaspar 2013-05-11T19:03:00
Very good game! Maybe the levels are a bit too long, making each failure too frustrating. Loved the graphics and music... good job!

I got the bad ending : (
Arco by lightspeedlucas 2013-05-11T18:45:00
Simple concept, was actually fun to play. I'd love a sandbox mode where you can play your own music :)
SOLIX by bentog 2013-05-11T18:40:00

Save the Potato, Save the world. by JohnnySix 2013-05-11T18:32:00
5 Stars for the retro music. Amazing graphics/visual effects and very fun game. Too bad it's so hard!!
Also... wrong theme? :D
My Peculiar Car by brantkings 2013-05-11T18:24:00
Gosh so many cactus... Roads are not the same anymore!
Two games in one, pretty cool concept! Also, the sound effects mysteriously gave a soul to this game... weird feeling.

Very neat. Should be integrated into the next Prof Layton's game ^^

WarioWare with pot option... hum interesting!
ShrunkenAdventures by FuzzyWuzzie 2013-05-11T05:36:00
Is that doctor eggman at the beginning? :D
Fun little game! Missing music and sounds as said in the description, but a LOT of content for so few hours... impressive.
Pivot by meat_popsicle 2013-05-11T05:31:00
A little bit confusing at first, it turns out to be a pretty nice puzzle game. Maybe some work on sound and design would have been great!
28 Pixels by TobiasL 2013-05-11T05:27:00
This game was surprisingly stressful oO. Too bad there's no easter egg when we press one of the calculator button :0)
Greyspace by Spierek 2013-05-11T05:25:00
We could feel the Portal influence here, really nice! Was that a cellshading shader? (black borders etc.) The visual effects were surprisingly well done!

Very cute graphics. The story mode did not work quite well for me (nothing to avoid?), so I played the game mode and it was pretty fun!
Good entry overall :)
jmp by reustonium 2013-05-11T05:18:00
Nice visual effects! The concept yet simple is coupled with a tricky gameplay that makes the game a bit too hard. It was still a very good entry with a sweet peaceful music B)
WALK by Nonameghost 2013-05-11T05:13:00
At many times I thought I was breaking the game until I actually did. Nice little experiment :)
CatLife by Leoche 2013-05-11T05:06:00
This game is so CUTE. I love when the cat sit down... even though most of the time it's not for long. Gosh streets are so crowded and dangerous in this city!
Maybe the collisions are a bit too exaggerated, I died multiple times still being far from the enemy.
Tiny Runner by Jarcas Studios 2013-05-11T05:04:00
You certainly earned the weirdest/smallest resolution award for a unity game :D

Bounce by Elrobo 2013-05-11T04:58:00
That game is minimalist both by its graphical style and gameplay. Clever move :)
Only problem... BRIGHT COLORS GAAAH.
Tundra King by deathray 2013-05-11T04:54:00
Is there anything else to do beside talking to the other guys? Maybe it hasn't been finished in time (too bad, but it in that case it seemed to be a pretty good start :)).

Very well designed, loved the theme interpretation!
Join by Perry 2013-05-11T04:37:00
Sweet little game! Loved the sound effects linked to the puzzle. Glad to see it gets very complicated in the end as well ^^
Battery by onzephyr 2013-05-11T04:33:00
What a fantastic concept! The battery life was a bit too short maybe, but I really enjoyed this entry... congratulations :)
essentia by andrewkennedy 2013-05-11T04:31:00
Is that a very sad ending? Maybe I'm over interpreting but flying as an angel, dead, finding no exit, no way to go, was really a nice poetic finale.
Time to Think by MrWhoof 2013-05-11T04:08:00
The jumps are tricky and I unfortunately got stuck at the place shown on the main screenshot (red). Wish I could go further but maybe too hard for me :)
(What about a walkthrough?).
Otherwise, very good music (too bad it stops!), interesting design as well.
Pixi : The pixel that is not a square ! by Panda313 2013-05-10T06:55:00

Good job :)
Mystic Door - by The Mystic Souslik Team by Tipyx 2013-05-10T06:48:00

A game of life that is finally... a real game :D (nice puzzle game plus!)
potential energy generator by rsodre 2013-05-10T06:33:00
I was surprisingly totally in synch with the game after a few sec. That was surprising. Brb, my ears are bleeding.
Togglio by Zemmi 2013-05-10T06:09:00
Simple but efficient! Tbh I still had to die a few times before seeing the link between the little guys and the color.
Gods Will Be Watching by GreyShock 2013-05-09T07:14:00
Hard but has a very interesting replay value. The graphics are sublime and the global atmosphere is pretty awesome (too bad the music stops at some point).
Great game overall!
Minimum Reason Game: Hail To The Potato King by nodoxi 2013-05-09T06:51:00
Wrong theme?
Fun little game, I like the rhythmic changes (coming along with mood changes for the potato king).
Exit by Ludipe 2013-05-09T06:48:00
Pretty little game with a deep story hidden in it.
Flight Time by Lerc 2013-05-09T06:46:00
Ultra simplistic, ultra addictive, ultra theme adequate.

Nice little game, and interesting theme interpretation!
Line Knight by berareu 2013-05-09T06:25:00
Good memories that was this spanish cartoon (la linea?). Never thought of a game adaptation but this game was pretty well done! Too short maybe ^^
Special client by ColdBrain 2013-05-09T06:20:00
This game is so funny! The Harlem Shake made my day :D (Although you can't really finish the game since the timer was going way out of the bar and I could not grab anything).

The fun begins when you realize that you should not drag body parts too strong...
Leaf Me Alone by Claw 2013-05-09T06:12:00
Maybe one of the best entries I could test so far. You could amply feel the Fez influence, but I still loved it. Congratulations :)
Dock Zone by Farfin 2013-05-07T04:09:00
Awesome little game :3
Wonder what happens if you get all the pyramids...
Moonshine by TravisChen 2013-05-07T03:41:00
Very impressive... 5 stars for graphics and audio! Too bad the isometric 4d movement is kind of hard to control.
The Bends - Minimum to Anoy by TinyGolem 2013-05-06T06:11:00
Very classic little game, I was a bit confuse at first on how the gravity mechanic was working, but then it got funnier :)
Hipster Pad by nimblegorilla 2013-05-06T06:06:00
Maybe a ranking system would make the game a bit more challenging, to me it was pretty easy to score something above ~100 and more, maybe this is actually a shitty score.

A bit hard to get it, but I really loved the visual effects!
accord by omaha 2013-05-06T05:35:00
Nicely done! A bit frustrating when you finally reach the end of introduction and still have to start over from the beginning at the first mistake. It should be possible to jump on a platform from the back ^.^
A Game of Numbers by JoeDev_net 2013-05-06T05:29:00
You should sell that to schools for billions of dollars.
Color Blind by Alec Von Arx 2013-05-06T05:29:00
A new reference game for designers? :D
The Road by GeorgeBroussard 2013-05-06T05:28:00

Dream Fishing by Sophie Houlden 2013-05-06T02:19:00

Maybe the controls could be slightly improved (no way to move backward?).
TOOM by PoV 2013-05-06T02:12:00
Great mood, great graphics, great music. But...
[SPOILER]
So the minimalism was the end? Hummmm that totally broke the global atmosphere :D

Loved it!

Very fun game, congratulations!
Nova Jump : A Space Adventure by savethejets1 2013-05-05T20:53:00

Balls! by Codexus 2013-05-05T20:47:00
Amazing work for a 72h solo (especially for the graphics and music...). Not sure how it fits the theme though ^^
Not Complex by NuSan 2013-05-05T20:37:00
My mind got really blown by the graphic style. It's truly unique and perfectly fits the them. There's also a lot of hidden work since this has been made in HTML5/Three.js, and is cleary not laggy at all.
Is there any specific goal in this game though? I still liked it a lot!
IMBARINTH by brookman32k 2013-05-05T20:32:00
All my congratulations for the visual effects. There's some hard work over there and it should be rewarded! Only major reproach: the controls are very approximative... you get very easily stuck in a given block.
Orbicular by metalcan 2013-05-05T20:27:00
Finally, a well polished game with so many details that make your game experience unique and deeply enjoyable. Very good work.

Could you add a web-player based version?
Placeholder Title by The Jahn 2013-05-05T18:52:00
Old school like it should be! The music reminded me one of my old game gear game... bonus!
YLBIN by intripoon 2013-05-05T18:12:00
Great way to improve on a yet simple and well known concept. My big reproaches here:
- The game resolution is way too large, on laptops it's pretty hard to finish some levels
- The snake speed is a bit too high
Dream Island by FREEZX 2013-05-05T18:05:00
5 stars graphic and humor :D

Chez Angelo by EdoMiyamoto 2013-05-05T17:35:00
At first I thought it was a game with a creepy/scary atmosphere and the fire in the bar almost made me scream :D
All the interactions with the NPC and the background are a big plus.
Overall, very nice mood, really too bad it's not completely finished ^^

IN THE minimal NEED OF A POTATO by nicso 2013-05-05T08:59:00
Cool concept, gameplay kind of tight and discouraging when losing endlessly. The hero sprite is really well done!
IN MALI SOMMI by Capro 2013-05-05T08:54:00
Interesting little game. The intro screen made my eyes bleed but otherwise it's pretty well done ;)
Platonic Dot Solid by Prelucid 2013-05-05T08:52:00
Very nicely done! I'd just argue that an isometric 4 dir movement was probably not the best choice here.

8 jumps and a fat man by Exclamation Mark 2013-05-05T07:54:00

Starting with a basic concept, you added a lot of nice mechanics that are making the game pretty awesome in the end. Very good job!

This game is a bit confusing, however we can't deny all the efforts in graphics and design. Overall a good game, maybe more indications would be nice.
