Your horrible, almost-rhyming poetry totally makes up for the fact that your orange gun is still just a gun that shoots orange bullets (I really do like the bad poetry). Power ups were much appreciated. Points for humor, and the audio is more than adequate.
Pretty cool game. I really appreciated the first-person perspective, and the game had a strong arcade feel. But I only felt like a handful of the games were actually fun. I liked the whack-a-mole and the limited-shots because they each had a unique moment-to-moment objective.
Holy kumquat, this game is unbelievably fun! It's the follow-up to Veggie Tales that my life has heretofore been lacking! Excellent work!
The idea of using speedrunning weapon jumping as the main mechanic is really cool. It would be nice if the movement felt less sluggish.
Requiring the doll to recharge to 100 made the game very difficult. Other than that, everything looks pretty good. The mechanic is just different enough to be interesting.
Brilliant text adventure; it gets right to the point; my scarves were beautiful. This game made me really happy, and it's all the funnier because it won't let me replay it, which adds weight to the narrative. Bravo!
Good game. I had fun, and it was nice having moons, but the planet was hard enough to control that it seemed like it was almost entirely luck. I couldn't react enough to move closer or farther from anything.
Great entry! Something as simple as how the game graphically reacts to punching through blocks made this so much fun!
Very cool Cookie Clicker Clone. I like how it incorporates a weaponry mechanism.
Wow. This is brilliant, especially since it takes advantage of the immediate rush of players from being in the Ludum Dare. I've never seen something quite like it before, and it really takes advantage of he interactive elements of world-building. You've basically made an MMO here.
Nice game, it seems like a kind of "risk of rain" flow of gameplay. I like the graphic style a lot - it's simple, but it works well. The gameplay doesn't have quite enough feedback for it to be super fun yet. It's too easy to get stuck in a corner with an enemy as your health just drains over the course of a second. Maybe it would help for the enemies to have a specific attack animation, so you can perceive when you are hit by something.
Good game. It was easy enough to match the story focus that you gave it, and the humor is quite good. I kind of wish that something different would happen if you do nothing, especially since the ending implies that.
This is wonderful! Great art style, and the word-slinging is fun.
Great game mechanic. It made me think in a new way.
This is great, and I love the mechanic of needing to anticipate (rather than just react to) the colors. The graphics are also super nice and smooth and pleasing, and it ties it all together. Good work.
Nice Guitar Hero clone. Is there supposed to be background music in addition to the music that is playing from each of the notes that I hit? If so, it wasn't playing for me, and if not, I think the game needs it. As it is, this was good as a game, but not good musically.
I really love the sound and the graphics. The game is so amusing that I want to keep playing. The fly sound effect never gets old. Good work.
Thanks everyone for taking the time to play this and leave comments!
All of your feedback has really helped me to understand what a player sees when they play this game, and now I have a variety of ideas for how I would have structured the clues and the density of feedback differently.
And a special thanks to anyone who put in the time to make it to the end! I can see that there's not quite enough content here to engage the player for that long, but in case anyone wants to get there, know that I did include some hints in certain places. And sometimes, if you get the right syllables in the wrong order, you will get a message saying that you are close to finding something.
This is a beautiful game. The way that the sound and visuals come together with the shooting make it so much fun to play.
Pretty cool game. I like that taking no action leads to actively destroying the enemies. I does seem a little too random though whether you are hit by the rain of fire.
Interesting game, though it is a bit confusing figuring out how it works. I like that death has a minimal penalty. Overall, it feels like the old classic ADVENTURE where you carry around different objects. The graphics and mood are wonderful.
Very cool concept. Plus you get serious bonus points for how smoothly this downloaded and ran on my computer. Honestly, it wasn't pretty or fun, and I couldn't figure out a goal besides just dying slower, but it's an idea that you can definitely work with.
I think that the strongest points of this game are the graphics, audio, and mood. They are really wonderful together. Your mechanic is good, but I would have liked to see it in some crazier situations, particularly with the text manipulation. The levels that you had were acceptable, but not brilliant. The mood absolutely carries the game, though, and I would love to see this expanded and really thought through.
An interesting puzzle game. The graphics and sound are nice for giving the feeling of being on a ship.
This is great! In fact, I'm still playing, even as I'm typing this! I'm harnessing my unconventional weapon or apathy!
There are some great little text bits in here. "Why does everything I love die?"
Excellent game! This is so beautifully cynical, and it's doing something that I haven't seen in any other games. Good work.
Cool concept, and the graphics and mood are wonderful despite being so simple, especially the ghost animations.
Beautiful game! Incredible audio! Literally nothing but humor, and then there's gameplay on top of that! What more could you want?
I didn't find it super fun, but it sounds like an interesting mechanic when you describe it. Maybe if the graphics were a bit more responsive, and your character a bit faster, it would feel like I have more of an ability to do something.
This is incredible, I love it so much! It took me a while to figure out that there was even a game underneath all the bureaucracy, but sure enough, there it was! Ten out of ten for dry humor. It is the driest I have ever seen.
Excellent work, this is just such a crazy new idea of how a maze can work and you can interact with it. The humor is on point, and pulls the theme into it in a way that I like very much. Music is actually a bit annoying rather than beneficial, but it's forgivable. Great work.
Wow, this game feels so good to play, and it visually it is amazing! Great work!
This game is hilarious, I love it! Excellent graphical style as well! Great work!
Nice work, this was a fun little mechanic.
This game keeps surprising me with how beautiful and polished it is. Really nice job, it was very fun to play.
This was really wonderful. It was interesting to think through both scenarios of what was happening. Also, in many ways, it was a good portrayal of being a kid. Great work.
I like it! It was a bit unweildy, since only the water can be directly controlled, but it's a really cool idea, and some nice visuals.
Wow. That was unbelievably cool. Thank you so much for making this, I don't think I've experienced something like it before. And it all felt like a rainy day. Excellent work.
I really, really liked this game. The way all of the powers come together and then everything fits exactly into place is so satisfying. Great work!
Odd controls, but nice game.
Excellent work! Your humor is on point!
Cool concept, and nice execution as well. The visuals and sound were good, and I would love to see this a bit more fleshed out to make it easier to get into it.
There are some interesting pieces here - especially with the eating and growing. I felt like the game was still too simple for the stealth element to be interesting rather than frustrating.
This was excellent! THe humor, the audio, the visuals were all great! nice work.
I like this a lot! The graphics are wonderful.
Holy balogna, this game is beautiful! Also fun and difficult! Really excellent work.
Wow! This game is so delightful! The audio, the visuals, the interaction were all great! Good work!
Very fun! Though I'm not a big fan of the time limit.
Nice graphics and polish, good work.
Very interesting use of shapeshifting, and good work on the mood as well.
Very interesting gameplay concept, and I felt like it was pretty well balanced.
This is a very nice looking game, and good gameplay!
That was really awesome, I loved the style, and I loved the interpretation of shifting. Excellent work!
Wow, the visuals are fantastic! Great work!
Really great game! I like how the different buffs are all overpowered in their own way, and the unbuffed stats are underpowered. It makes you take advantage of what you have. Great work, and the game is beautiful!
Nice polish, but I felt like the controls were too floaty for the level of precision that the game required, and that made it a bit frustrating.
Very nice! The game is simple, but it feels good, and that kept me playing for a while.
The controls felt a bit too floaty to be able to really get into it.
Very pretty, and great mood. I feel like it is too unforgiving in the way that a lot of simple stealth games are, but the 3D environments were very nice.
That was a very interesting idea, having the actual level change in ways that the player can't perceive. It does leave a lot of guessing to the player though.
Amazing! The audio is perfect!
This is nice! Unfortunately it was possible to get stuck as the raven, but I like the style of this game.
Very nice. There's a lot to like here, even if it is pretty bare-bones. The visuals and sound are really wonderful, and I would love to see more.
Haha, "shapeshift."
Nice idea! It's a little bit too easy for the car to get stuck, but there's potential here.
Wow, that was really lovely. I wasn't sure at first if I was up for a serious poetry session, but the game has a nice way of painting with very broad stokes and being vague enough that I felt okay with not understanding it and just going along for the ride. Great work.
This is a cool little game. It feels very arcade-y in a lot of ways. Like a difficult system where each time you go in thinking you might make it a little bit farther.
Great work! I love the polish, and the game gets surprisingly fun when you get into the groove of it.
huh. This is a really neat and original take on Tetris. Well done, and nice polish too.
