All Systems Grow [LD46: KEEP IT ALIVE] by itsandyjones 2020-04-30T08:30:58Z ♥ 1
This game is really well made! The concept behind the plus and minus stuff really is fantastic and I've never seen such kind of game. One of the best platformer entries!
I got stuck the same area where joelloki got stuck in. I think he got stuck there the same way I did. I got the + power after that area then died from the lazer. I was brought back to the last checkpoint with the + power so no way of going forward. I think an easy fix is to revert back to the power-up present at checkpoint (don't forget to put back the power-up taken before dying). Another way is to make the power-up a checkpoint itself then make sure that its place at an area that you cannot just die from spawn.
Also, as many have said, there needs to be more checkpoints. Personally, I think a good place to put checkpoint is after any hard or annoying part. Players don't like doing something they have accomplished again. I think a contributing factor to this is the jumping. There are times when I felt like I was supposed to jump but I didn't. Try looking up on cayote time if you haven't yet. I think you have added some form of cayote time but it wasnt well implemented if ever you did. If you fix the jumping, I could say the checkpoint locations are fine. Most of my deaths are due to missed jumps.
But seriously, I applaud to how amazing this game is! I normally won't write this long for a game but I really liked it and you deserve a long feedback. Hope you don't take my criticism the wrong way. I really see the potential in this game and would love to give you support if you need any!

The instructions given throughout the game makes it simple to dive right in. I never really felt too stuck at one point yet still feeling gratified for every puzzle solved. The save reset was a bit unnatural for me. I feel like there couldve been a better way to implement that. Maybe it should start recording the moment you press space on the portal. then if you press space again on the portal, it will reset the time loop. That's what I wouldve wanted. what do you think? Anyways, I love a good puzzle game and this one gave me the satisfaction. good job!
Defuse in under 5 by Darylsteak 2020-10-08T10:58:13Z ♥ 0
Hello! it your fellow bear. This is an outstanding game most definitely! Let me just say the things I feel could improve.
- The last defuse should be the hardest to do. Many could cheese their way through guessing - Make the current character more outstanding that the ghosts. I have a hard time distinguishing the real from the fake when there are like 50 of us (yeah I suck lol) - when the timer hits below 1 second, make it turn red and make the music get a bit hectic to push that adrenaline. - A reset to menu button would be nice :)
As you can see, my suggestions are not game breaking because your game is truly a solid one! (Unless you put timer to zero which was hilarious!!!) Nice use of the theme, visuals are simple but work perfectly, sfx and music are used appropriately, looks like we have a winner! Good job!!!
Beyond Death by Trypants 2020-10-08T10:42:10Z ♥ 5
I am amazed that this game could run properly on web. Well i know my pc is pretty beefy but still. Usually, even games like these will choke on Web. Good job on that! Then for the obvious part which you already know, the professionalism placed in this game is top notch!!! I also loved the way the grass and other stuff changes every time you die. Great implementation of the theme! All I wish is if there was more button actions like jumping and possibly jump or running. Maybe you had those in mind but placed your attention on the details. Overall great game!
Loop Frogs by Rolph 2020-10-08T00:35:54Z ♥ 2
one of the best time loop puzzles I've tried so far. Absolute fantastic! Love how you incorporated the frogs! Love the art style! My only problem is that there is no music sadly and sometimes the replay isn't accurate. But I understand that creating an accurate time loop could be really hard. I also did it in my game and I have the same bug as you. Other than that, puzzle level design is well crafted. Good job!
Magical Girl Storms The Castle by dracominer 2020-10-07T17:43:57Z ♥ 1
This is some unique idea I haven't seen before. It would be nice if you could choose who to heal. Sometimes I need to heal myself but i can't until all of them died. Sometimes, my mates don't like to kill but I noticed they do automatically attack when the goblins go near them so I stay as close to my mates as possible to get them to kill. Managed to win in normal difficulty. The game is a bit hard until you find the right technique. It was really satisfying once I found the technique. good game!
btw, I'm sorry I havent contacted you since the pandemic
Age of Amperes by JHax 2020-10-07T15:36:25Z ♥ 1
Dude, I'm taking Computer Engineering and this game is my (game) JAM!!! Not really how electricity works though but who cares! I think this game could benefit with a fast forward button. I love the music! Overall great game!
edit: there is a speed up!
Mom! I've got a job! by Food Lovers 2020-10-07T15:25:08Z ♥ 1
One of the best aesthetics I've seen. Such an eye candy! cant stop staring! The gameplay wasn't that good though. I think based on this game, you should try making some cute game focused on cuteness!! Trust me, you'll do well! Not many can manage such game but I believe in you :)
Fear Of Gears by dev_dwarf 2020-10-07T14:40:59Z ♥ 2
This is the most polished game I have seen in any Jam! wow! The sound designer really did a good job and the sprites are amazing as well! Let's not forget the addictive gameplay! Picking all the upgrades and not bothering about the debuffs makes this game chaotic hell of fun!!! if there is one thing I found that could be improved is the enemies are a bit hard to see with the fantastic background. Sometimes I thought the round was over but there was one enemy still lurking in camouflage. Asides from that, absolute stunning of a game! A true GEM I would say.
Hack'n Loop by Darenn 2020-10-07T11:12:03Z ♥ 3
Really Fun Game! Love how you implemented a highscore system. Always wanted to do that but I dont know how. It really helps me push myself forward. Everything about this game is awesome from the graphics to the gameplay to the feels. Solid game!!! One of the best!
Press The Button by Steventus 2020-10-07T10:57:07Z ♥ 1
The bottom button reminds me so much of five nights at freddies. Nice implemenation of a click and ugrade game! I wish there were more kinds of power-ups like speeding up the arm. asides from that. Great game! great atmosphere!
The Magic Steak by chispaLBC 2020-10-07T08:53:08Z ♥ 2
I'm a sucker for cute stuff. Love the ferret. The biggest plus point of the game! The level is well designed though not much a fan of the bugs! This a good example of a platformer done right!
Stuck In Paris by CocaPasteque 2020-10-07T07:33:03Z ♥ 3
This game is too good! the only problem I have is the sound gets a bit too repetitive. One of the best games I've seen! i would give this 10/5 stars for innovation!
The Loop Collection by Geegaz 2020-10-07T07:11:28Z ♥ 1
I Like how you came up with three ideas. Each of them is so unique yet uses the circle intuitively. Love the aesthetics! Here are my thoughts on all three.
The first game feels the most polished to me. The bouncing physics is spot on and the way the bar grows and shrinks feels amazing! I would suggest to make the yellow pick-up item bigger or let it gravitate towards the ball so its easier to obtain.
The second one is very fun. The way the spaceship moves is so smooth! The only problem is the depth system is a bit off. Initially, the dark areas look like square floors, but eventually, the illusion broke and I realized they were trapezoid walls. You have to take note that the corners further away are at a different scale than the ones closer. The last one was something I have never seen before and is my favorite among the three modes. I didn't really understand in the beginning what to do. I initially thought the fan was a shuttlecock from badminton whoops. There is a bit of depth problems with the rocks going over the boat but nothing that makes the game bad. the wave and wind effects was a nice touch. The radar effect was also ingenious!
But regardless of all the bad stuff I mentioned, it is very well made! All the flaws are very tiny and dont break the game so no worries. Each game was highly addictive! The way the menu also incorporates the circle idea is fantastic! overall great game! or games!

Really enjoyed this one! It takes good game design to make a good clicking game! Good job!
The Legend of the Stormer by josephdevelops 2020-10-06T15:22:38Z ♥ 1
For somebody that only had about 2 weeks under his belt in programming, I must say well done! It took me years to get to your level! Not many beginners know how to make good text typewriter effect. Love the sprites too. I swear, when I saw the old man, voiced out his lines like a wise elder :)
Paper Hell by Lexyvil 2020-10-06T15:11:11Z ♥ 2
the questions are humorous and fun! not sure if there is a way to finish it. I've been playing for 5 min but I keep on screwing up every 15 seconds. This makes me feel smart and dumb at the same time. weird feeling. gives me those flash games that we will forever miss after this year
HONK II by Tricky_Fat_Cat 2020-10-06T15:07:11Z ♥ 1
Not sure if you remember me from past jams but I surely remember you. I know that a tricky fat cat game is always worth playing! And this game does not disappoint! Clearly a Doom meets Nuclear throne and a good combo I say. My only problem is I don't really see the theme on this one but the gameplay is spot on!
O O O by RexTGun 2020-10-06T08:22:30Z ♥ 2
One of the best games seen so far. Simple. Elegant. Ridiculously fun!

Full points on Humor my Friend! wow. Took me a while to find the true ending. Loved it!
LoopChan by Kaish 2020-10-06T07:32:41Z ♥ 3
This game is really good! Love the idea. So far, nothing like it. I wish there was a way to see the music score (if there was, I missed it). Really love the game
Project R.O.O.M by Arad HamidSamiee 2020-10-06T07:02:01Z ♥ 5
The feels of this game is really good! I did feel uneasy. For a moment, I thought something will jump scare me. Kinda wished there was.
Loop Line! by Daniel X. Moore 2020-10-06T06:48:28Z ♥ 2
This is neat game. Love the aesthetics! Reminds me of the cutesy things I see in Japan.
Evo-loop-tion | Ludum Dare 47 by MrchickenBoy 2020-10-06T06:32:33Z ♥ 1
Unlike the other players, I actually was able to figure things out pretty easily although don't use me as your basis. I'm not so sure why you made the controls for the maze directional buttons while the character is WASD. I would prefer to just stick to one button configuration for both. The game needs a bit of polishing but it was nice to finish! It's great seeing bros working together to make a game. Me and my bro used to work together too
GitGood Dungeon by Quoclon 2020-10-06T04:17:47Z ♥ 1
The sprites and their animation is great! good job! I wish there was music to add to the feels of the game. I haven't seen any bugs while playing. Managed to reach level 5 but I died before the end
Paper Planes by SamDemaine 2020-10-06T03:50:59Z ♥ 0
That explosion effect is spot on!!! The only thing missing is music but considering this is a compo game, I'll be more lenient on that regard. Smooth controls yet challenging! Never felt frustrating. Really well implemented! Good job!
edit: I just realized the enemy planes are clones!
Peck-It! by StinkyKitty 2020-10-06T03:40:35Z ♥ 2
I love the chicken noises and love the piano! I know a bit of piano and playing bumblebee is one of those hard pieces to play. nicely made!

Last level was nice! I think the game would be nicer if the jumping tracks was introduced sooner
