The combination of the theme with a game about programming is great! Simple graphics with the upbeat synth works really well and the puzzles were pleasantly unforgiving (being able to restart at the beginning of the level was much appreciated!). I had a lot of run playing it and I laughed a few times with the puzzles. Awesome job! Shout out from a fellow AB dev!!
Great to see a simple but fun multiplayer game for the jam! The Tron aesthetic works well with the theme and the graphics and audio/sound offer a cool retro vibe! Great job! Shout out from a fellow AB dev!
Fun puzzles with cool audio and music! Great job!
This one surprised me: it was slow but that slowness spoke to the message of the game and the use of the theme. I enjoyed it as much as it frustrated me when I would get caught in a seemingly infinite loop and the simple graphics conveyed a sense of loneliness that went deep. Really cool art game!
Definitely one of the more unique takes on the theme! I had a lot of fun rolling down the mountain and the zany music complements the gameplay nicely!
Fun play on the theme! It felt like a medieval-style Dance Dance Revolution for my fingers! hahaha Charming soundtrack too! Great job!
Interesting play on the theme and the graphics are simple but charming. Good job!
Beautiful graphics and great 8-bit audio. Having the game contained in a Game Boy was a really nice touch too. The story is creepy and the ending was a great play on the theme. Awesome job!
Anxiety-inducing text-based game with a cool Command Prompt aesthetic; the minimalist style definitely added to the theme. I jumped at the first warning beep haha Really great but scary atmosphere and the computer lag adds a whole other layer of tension! Great job on it!
Really polished fun game! The difficulty curve grows at a good rate and the collectibles/upgrades are a great touch. The top-down puzzle style works really well with the theme and I found myself engaged through the whole playthrough! I was nodding along with the music too--definitely adds another layer to the run-and-gun mechanic! It feels like a complete package. Awesome job!
Fun little puzzle platformer with good pixel art and, as a few people have already mentioned, a strong dash of Portal vibes and humor! Though it was short, it offered a nice range of obstacles and solutions. I hope you keep working on it! Great job!
Really cool to see a ttrpg for the jam! Your scope is impressive and the rulebook reads well. I rolled a Crawler.class and I am looking forward to getting some friends together to play! Great job on it!
Fun shooter with charming art! Cool addition of a day and night mode! Great job!
Fun runner with beautiful art and charming audio and music. Almost relaxing gameplay with a good rhythm of obstacles!
Really enjoyed the arcade-style shooter and I always love cosmic horror themes! Solid replayability too. Great job!
Fun play on the theme! The art and music is really charming and the scavenger hunt of finding all the clues and opening the safe was a nice touch. Great ending too! Fantastic job!
The music and art has some great NES-era nostalgic feels and the movement was smooth. The difficulty level is just enough to make you mad but still want to keep playing! Hahaha Great job!
Cool steampunk aesthetic and smooth movement/controls. I enjoyed the loop mechanic and it worked really well with the puzzles. However, I was sad to see it crash during the Robodog boss fight because I was quite invested by that point! Looking forward to the post-compo version!
The fantastic audio, music, and art make for a really cool mix of relaxing and creepy atmosphere. I really enjoyed how the forest became progressive spookier and the things you come across are unnerving! Great job!
Fun puzzle platformer with a spoopy vibe! The art and animation look great and I really like that the record loop is limited so you have to manage it carefully! Hope you keep working on it!

Good game! I agree with everyone else about the hourglass power-ups and the scrolling design was a bit distracting. Overall, nice focus on the jam theme!
Cthulhu's Deep Dream by retrome 2021-05-18T02:20:32Z ♥ 1
Great job on the charming Metroidvania! Controls felt good and the music and sound were great additions. However, the camera effect was distracting. Overall, I really enjoyed it!
Voyager by RajatG 2021-05-18T02:07:19Z ♥ 1
Impressive for a solo game! Fun, little run and dodge style gameplay. Like a few people have mentioned, music or sound would add a lot to the experience, but I still enjoyed it! Good job!
Eldritch Depths by simex 2021-05-13T22:55:32Z ♥ 0
Really fun retro dungeon crawler! Love the epic rock soundtrack and the art is equal parts charming and terror. The progression system felt rewarding and the choice between power-ups was a nice touch. I really enjoyed playing the game and I would love to see it expanded after Ludum Dare! Excellent job!
Falling apart by yetanother 2021-05-13T05:39:57Z ♥ 1
Cute story and a beautiful aesthetic! The line colours were a bit difficult to see against the background (especially the right side as mentioned by others) and the collision boxes are much larger than the objects which caused a lot of splash damage. A note about controls: The right drop is moved by J and L rather than the onscreen prompt of J and K so that was confusing for a bit… Overall, a nice change of pace for a game jam game that was an interesting blend of relaxing and reflexes! Good job!
Falling Time by g12345 2021-05-13T05:28:11Z ♥ 1
Fun arcade-style game with frantic pace! The back and forth scroll made for some interesting planning and challenge. A bit more visual feedback and a chippy soundtrack and this would be a great Atari game!
Fly Away by PSV Games Studio 2021-05-13T05:20:55Z ♥ 1
Good game with a steady difficulty curve and satisfying end. The music was good, but the epic soundtrack felt out of place… The gameplay has much more fun and light-heartedness to it! Nevertheless, the arcade-style feel, and the overall execution, made the game enjoyable! Good job!
They Hear You by SakuH 2021-05-13T05:08:28Z ♥ 0
This game is such a great combination of music, art, and design. Procedurally generated levels were a nice touch, especially for a game jam, and the enemies were scary! The controls were somewhat unresponsive, which made dodging the fast moles more difficult than necessary, but the overall feel of the game is solid! Well done!
The Deep Underneath by creepyface 2021-05-13T04:57:59Z ♥ 1
I love the art and aesthetics: the abstract really enhances the horror. The enemy designs are great, and the levels have a surprising amount of detail. The camera lapse makes things a bit tricky but the progress save does not make it frustrating. Great job!
Deeper Into The Forest by SnappyPath 2021-05-13T04:46:17Z ♥ 1
Beautifully rendered graphics and I love the one-the-rails shooter mechanics. Surprisingly chill game with a fun reaction timer. Nice job!
Marble Maze: Descent by Ohmikron 2021-05-13T04:32:08Z ♥ 0
Nice and enjoyable mechanics and a nice soundtrack (too bad it cuts out quite early). The branching solution in puzzle 3 was a nice touch but the camera shift really adds an unnecessary complication to finishing it. I also experienced the loop back to level 1, but I enjoyed what I saw!
What Lies Below by Roka Josh 2021-05-13T04:07:58Z ♥ 1
Simple but effective art and the music is just the right amount of ominous. I love the tech tree and there is a real sense of progress as you unlock new abilities and dive down deeper. The ending is the perfect amount of creepy too! I really enjoyed this game! Have you considered expanding it following LD?
Barkcheology by fusionnist 2021-05-13T03:31:49Z ♥ 2
Great job!! Having two different game modes is really impressive and the mining puzzles were fun with a nice balance of difficulty and fun. The overworld is simple and charming while the puzzles and shop have fantastic art! Also, groovy tune for the opening (has some Demon Tower feels).
