Very well done. There was definitely a fair amount of guess and check going on. I managed to get to the fifth floor and got stuck, nothing seemed to do anything at that point. Awesome idea!

Very well done. There was definitely a fair amount of guess and check going on. I managed to get to the fifth floor and got stuck, nothing seemed to do anything at that point. Awesome idea!
The levels were definitely more difficult than first glance, but there was some nice progression in difficulty.
Very entertaining.
Had 8 steaks on the grill at once. Dropped one on the ground, picked it up to put it back on the grill, sent ALL of the steaks flying into the abyss.
10/10 would throw steaks on the ground again.
Definitely well put together. Doing more of third person over the should thing with some springy-ness might help with the camera not feeling so stiff. Well done
A nice laid back game. Nice visuals.
It looks like there's strategy to squirrel eating spiders, cats eating rats, etc. and timing it right. So that was cool. More visual feedback with points when the animals eat the "Dark" could be nice? Otherwise nicely done!
It was difficult to tell if/when I was attacking.
And the controls were very weird at first (QZSD?) Thankfully you have it setup that I was able to change to a WASD setup.
This was entertaining. The bird was a little OP for the platforming part, you could mostly just fly past everything and not deal with the enemies.
I couldn't figure out how to kill the wizard at the end though, nothing seemed to hit him? I had been super hoping that you needed to have him throw his "fireball" thing at one of the chandeliers and have it drop on him.
The low poly models were really well done.
This was really cool and had way more than I was initially expecting!
Would be neat to see dragon/wolf models over the tiles instead of icons. Overall, really well done. Made me think of this from the last Ludum Dare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtWiQxke8Vk
Love the concept. I also couldn't get past the 3rd level, I couldn't select the triangle.
Otherwise, love the idea behind it.
Great game! Only feedback is that it was a little tricky seeing the jump on the wolf when the camera is directly above. Maybe tilt it just a bit?
This was fun. It took a little bit to figure out how to do the shapeshifting. Had to go back to the instructions and then try again a few times to understand it.
Cool game!
Well done! Graphics & audio were nicely done. Hit boxes seemed rough, but playable.
This was awesome, graphics were incredible, sound effects hit the spot perfectly. Some interesting mechanics in it too.
haha Rainbow barf. The art for this was awesomely rainbow. It was tricky to dodge the cats, and the hit detection was just a touch off. Got stuck on the walls on occasion.
rAIN boW bARF!
Controls on the ship felt really good. I wasn't entirely sure if I was trying to shoot at everything, only ships that shot the red laser beams or what. It was fun flying around shooting things up though.
This was really cool, I like the idea.
I think the character movement could use some work though, like slow it down, make him float a little bit, kind of ghosty :)
haha I love the audio. Epic Dragon Quest!
That must have taken a while to connect all of possibilities together. Really neat concept.
Really fun, loved the visuals and the music.
Can't seem to hit "Start Game"...
This is awesome. Very cool take on a shooter. Definitely difficult, but it's a lot of fun!
Collision detection is a bit rough. The sounds were awesome though. Seems like you should be able to duck to avoid the enemies? But I couldn't figure out how.
Chrome is claiming that your zip file is malicious.
Really nice job on this. The bounding boxes seemed a little off on the 2nd terminal. Couldn't seem to jump high enough, was constantly falling down.
Tried to play it alone like the other comments, difficult :) very challenging.
It was a lot of fun though, definitely gave it quite a few play throughs. I'll to find someone to play it with me and see how far we can get.
Your game has an awesome art style to it, really dig it.
I got quite a kick out of the "Sorry, no more gameplay". Had been really surprised by the seemingly massive amount of content from seeing the 3 worlds you had until that message popped up :)
An interesting game, had difficult getting anywhere, like others said, felt random, like nothing really mattered. Is it possible to get to the sun?
This was really cool, neat game mechanic, and an interesting take on the theme.
Well done. Graphics were sound, sound effects went well with game, nice and straight forward. Only thing that would be nice is to have the controls listed on the web page too, took me a bit to realize I had to actually dig until I came back here and re-read the instructions.
The intro was awesome. (Though could use a warning, caught me by surprise with the child over hearing it)
Lots of options for a ludum dare entry, nice full game.
Excellently done. It was a little difficult to judge where the harpoons were going, but the extra bubble dots showing the path helped a lot. Would be neat to see this run on the Oculus Rift to give it that extra dimension.
Awesome game!
It was a little slow I think, maybe if there were like a dash/swim really fast thing?
Music was really cool too. Definitely kept me entertained for a while :)
This was very well done, kept me entertained for a while, it was a bit of a challenge keeping all three pieces on the board at once :)
Didn't really fit the theme all that well. Only other complaint I had was that when spawning a new piece, it would sometimes die instantly from an enemy, but you just have to time it right to get away from that.
Intro was pretty cool, and I liked the game idea. Not everyday you shoot fish at aliens :)
Could definitely use some alien fire to make it a bit more intense. And probably a scoring system of some kind.

Cauldron! by Biliogadafr 2016-09-01T16:06:00
Wow that's hard! The club swinging mechanic is awesome.
I couldn't figure out how to eat and/or grab the bananas though.
Also, my game is the exact same concept (other than making soup, and legit swinging the club manually) I even have dinosaurs.
Reinventing the Wheel by gonutz 2016-09-01T15:32:00
Nice game! Pretty cool getting it going in Go.
Are the portal things supposed to be like Stargates or something? Or more of a level transition point don't question it kind of thing :)
Gladius: The Destroyer by Daniel 2016-09-01T15:29:00
The art work is superb. Music/sound effects would have added to it pretty well, but overall really good.
The controls for moving could have been improved a little more, pretty easy to get stuck when jumping. Overall though, fun, a bit of a challenge figuring out the timing for attacking/blocking.
Nomore by djfariel 2016-09-01T00:11:00
This played way better with a game pad than keyboard, was so happy to see support for it.
The controls/level of control felt awesome, especially for a game jam, just wow.
The level is so big that I started to get a little bit lost, and was having some trouble finding the right doors. Really, really well done.
Joey's Adventures by mato26 2016-08-31T23:58:00
Very well done! Controls, and animations were all spot on.
Second level was confusing for a while.
The torch as a timer/mechanic was a really nice touch.
Tower of Egypt by DespiteSoft 2016-08-31T23:48:00
Smashing the whip guy into a bloody mess was a huge surprise! Loved it.
It was pretty difficult, even being patient, to get the last stone down without smashing the whip guy. I did like the part of it you mentioned above with the guy having to be looking to lose a health over smashing him. Clever.
Floppy Disk Glitch by tartlegames 2016-08-31T23:43:00
Really liked the window in a window in a window in a window...
I did have an issue of accidentally jumping off the first platform after finishing a level and starting the next.
Controls were a little goofy, but matched up with the idea of a floppy character, with slow moving, but high jumping.
Invent the Wheel by Delicious Code 2016-08-31T15:07:00
This was surprisingly awesome! The music added so much engagement to this, that it really makes you cheer on your sad, sad little circle drawing.
One tiny request, would be a menu option during the race to reset, I made a little bitty circle, that went really, really slow, and I had to wait until it stopped to try again.
Secret Balance by krish8L 2016-08-31T15:00:00
Very cool feel to the game. The intro felt a little bit longer than it needed to be, but definitely added to the I have no idea what's going on feel.
Being able to pick things up like that was a nice surprise, especially when they started to go hay wire :)
Archaic Light by NinjaNic 2016-08-29T02:16:00
The art was awesome! There wasn't much game play, but the resulting cinematic at the end was a nice reward for collecting all of the wheat.
