Great. Loved the sound design and music. 3rd level kiled me. Great execution and graphics. Why can't I rate it?

Those black spheres, how could you?! Haha, frustrated me a little but overall a nice game. Definitely needs sound
Without My Arms by killerkun 2020-10-26T18:01:04Z ♥ 1
About the theme - are you stuck in a loop of perpetual torment and struggle? :) Surely I was. Loevd it tho, great physics, really responsive.
Killing Count Time by NiKaDra 2020-10-26T17:47:55Z ♥ 0
Really nice. Loved the arrows stuck in the walls system, loved those green bubbles trying to kill you and overal all style and graphics. Also sound was really nice.

Nice, pretty generic but still nice. Couldn't find any powerups and didn't knew where to go

I loved the bowl of milk and cereal concept. Loved the physics as well. I wonder what it could be if finished :)
Jazz It Up by Elyaradine 2020-10-26T17:24:31Z ♥ 1
Wow! One of the best games I played so far! I could play it forever actually :) At times I felt that it's a little non responsive but that didn't ruin the experience. Magnificent work :)

Weird and cacophonous - I liked it :)

Well it's a stone! I really liked the ambience and graphics. Couldn't brake the loop though.
Tum-Tum: An Unexpected Diet by Maxime Barre 2020-10-26T13:15:29Z ♥ 1
Really nice game, especially loved the hand drawn graphics and starting cutscene.
Welcome To MILTON KEYNES by Lyje 2020-10-26T13:02:07Z ♥ 1
Haha Milton Keynes and it's roundabouts, loved the joke! Loved your game too, pretty simple, yet effective. Also really hard.

Nice and thumbs up for the multiplayer!
JACKASTER by DS Nahogara 2020-10-26T12:45:51Z ♥ 0
Loved it. But you should definitely tinker with those colliders 'cause it really made it hard to play. Like getting stuck in a trash bin or I couldn't quickly grab those chairs to throw. It made playing way harder. I loved your graphical style and the music really fit. Some fixes required but really good entery
Tales of Frustration by Versith 2020-10-26T12:19:37Z ♥ 1
Cool game, pretty f r u s t r a t i n g :) Loved the music and the phylosophic feel
Hyper Hamster by Nazorus 2020-10-26T12:07:20Z ♥ 1
Haha there should be a seperate category for all those hamster loop games. Really liked it, especially the speed and the silly music :)
Retrospective by Cole and Jordan Studios 2020-10-26T11:54:04Z ♥ 1
Nice game. I almost finished it, I really pushed hard but some stuff made me quit unfortunetely. First it's really hard to see stuff, like it's too dark and too much reflections in the environment. It's really hard to get to know what to do (long dialogs explaining stuff). Other than that I really liked your game, like the audio and overall concept. Was it Outer Wilds inspired? And I really appreciate the scope and open-world design for the game, impressive for a 3 day jam game!
LUPINS by Psychedelia 2020-10-26T11:16:31Z ♥ 1
Wow I loved it. Very philosophical but not in like a brain melting way philosophical - meaning it's still understandable and enjoyable. I rated everything super high, loved your game.
DeedzLoop by Deedz 2020-10-22T11:04:22Z ♥ 1
I loved the animations and overall physics in your game. Also music was really nice. Overall a little to simple for my taste.

Some hints could be nice. Other than that I enjoyed it, loved the graphics.
Circle Golf by CG_Fred 2020-10-17T15:10:37Z ♥ 1
Cool game. Maybe at the ending screen try setting it to something different than arrow keys (I accidently skipped the ending heh). I loved the music - pretty hectic! Enjoyed playing it as well, great entry.
Looping Madness by Croped 2020-10-17T14:58:39Z ♥ 1
Cool little game. Really good interpretation of the theme. It's pretty hard (which I like). I wonder how it could be expanded, 'cause I have no clue.
Purgatory Hospital by riwmd 2020-10-16T15:03:49Z ♥ 2
Was there something after the truck killing me on the highway? 😱 Because I kept playing thinking there was something and really got tired and quit. Like I loved the concept, the atmosphere but if there was something else after, I would love to have a checkpoint after I exited the hospital. Other than it's a great game!
The Hanging Tree by Grommel 2020-10-16T14:25:49Z ♥ 1
Loved this game! I really liked your audio and visual aesthetic. There was some junk in the movement but that didn't stop me from playing. Also I almost missed the point of the whole game, not knowing what to do. Luckily I found out about this rope mechanic thing. There are definitely some things to improve, but just the concept of this game kept me playing for like 30 minutes. Unfortunetly I wasn't able to finish it, got stuck in the level with a tower, a loop and two rotating platforms. There was an interaction on the loop but I couldn't figure out how it works.
Help! I Set Off a Bomb! by maxmitchell 2020-10-16T13:45:29Z ♥ 1
Wow, why does it have so little ratings?! I loved your game. Loved the concept and the music. Loved how it required reflex and quite a lot of thinking to get it done. Yeah a great entry! Sorry I don't have a lot of feeedback but nothing bad really popped up while I played, so yeah, only words of praise :)
Debug.Loop! by Gironimo4 2020-10-16T13:35:00Z ♥ 1
I don't know I'm a bit lost on this one. Loved the audio but I really don't know how to play it. Tried checking the comment section but still couldn't figure it out. I think I'm not getting it 'cause it's like a big programmer joke game and I'm not really a skilfull programmer. Should I read a book to understand it? haha :)
also there is a little too much of obvious stuff in your tutorial but not enough explained about the core mechanic/gameplay
FIND YOUR SELF. by mde 2020-10-16T13:23:51Z ♥ 3
Oh i felt from the map. Liked the idea, could have played more if i didn't fell over but movement speed made me like, oh no I don't want to reapeat this all over again. Still interested in what's happenig with those memories I'm keeping every loop. Also it was a little too dark, tried adjusting my monitor but it didn't change too much.
LD47: Stuck in a Loop by Jare 2020-10-16T11:55:21Z ♥ 1
Nice. Some music and sound would be nice to add. Then some variety to the level but still it's a nice base for a game.
Blobber by Cherry_princess 2020-10-16T11:51:42Z ♥ 2
Yeah couldn't figure it out too. Loved the graphics and the whole concept. Maybe try hinting towards the clues in some clever wa?
Rhythm Step by Thulium Games 2020-10-16T11:37:00Z ♥ 1
Yeah loved your graphics and the concept. But it would be nice if it's more dynamic. Like there was a lot energy in the music but gameplay didn't really match it. Loved the way that the character was tied to the rhythm.
Sisyphus Beetle Takes His Daughter to Work by pee-thief 2020-10-16T11:23:39Z ♥ 2
This is great, I want more. Make more you? :)
. by gorrgolem 2020-10-14T15:44:01Z ♥ 1
Wow, I almost missed it if not for the comment section!
Initialy I made it through the "first level" and thought "oh well, it's unfinished, that's the end" and oh boy I was wrong.
Maybe try communicating how it works to the player somehow? Really loved the audio use in this game, very satisfying ending. Wish there was more games like this, is there? Could you make more? :) Rated it super high! Yeah, movement is kind of clunky but who cares! Subbed to your itch as well
The Titan's grave by BadPiggy 2020-10-14T10:09:48Z ♥ 1
Loving this game. Especially the unique perspective, like I know it's third person but this small character makes something different. I would definitely pay for a full version of this game - some story and exploration or something. Little more sounds would be nice to implement and I'm loving it, really enjoyed playing
Detachment Undone by Gossian 2020-10-10T20:56:42Z ♥ 1
Wow really a nice game. I guess because of the clunkiness I started to feel like I don't understand the game, like somehow some circles only fit with some and don't fit with others because of some weird mechanic that i don't know. I loved the soundtrack and the art. Also it was really hard to grab those circles. Definitely keep working on this 'cause I see that loads of players could easily waste a lot of time playing this kind of game. And man - rate other games - get noticed - polish yours and release 'cause it could be really fun and could possibly entertain a lot of people. Deffo a mobile players favourite!
StackInTheLoop by saurterrs 2020-10-10T20:36:46Z ♥ 1
Great music in this game. Had some fun with accelerating using the 'R' button. There was not so much to this game, maybe try playing with this concept that you accelerate using this loop restart and by that you get speed to be faster than other cars? I'm just ranting but it just popped to my head while playing :)
Soy Content by pi_pi3 2020-10-10T20:29:10Z ♥ 0
Doesn't really work on windows as you said, shame I wanted to play it :_0
RING LANCER by VoooDooo 2020-10-10T20:24:38Z ♥ 2
Really fun game! I really loved your graphics and audio. In my playtime I discovered that it is somehow easier to shoot when walking slow but it's definitely way less fun to do that. So maybe an incentive to go faster in this game would be nice to implement? Great entry nonetheless!
Void by Frozentape 2020-10-10T20:15:34Z ♥ 1
Gave me some Space Odyssey vibes somehow. Short and sweet, definitely rough but don't we forget it was made only in 3 days. I loved the quality and detail of sounds, but felt this binaural thing didn't really make an impression that it could - like maybe more whispers from this "monolith" or something else, there is more potential in this tech for sure. Definitely combined with visual effects it made me a little disoriented and uncomfortable around this "anomaly", which is not a bad thing, I loved it :)
Z Rhapsody by KaafiRookie 2020-10-10T19:53:17Z ♥ 1
Loved the graphics, loved the audio. Wish there was a dash like double tap in the direction you're facing to dash, 'cause I felt like those enemies were kicking my ass too much and I couldn't really fight back. Also maybe some attacks that have more range? And it was a little to dark. You nailed the style for sure, I wonder what it could be if you got some more time to make it.
Overcoming by Archock34 2020-10-10T19:28:03Z ♥ 0
Rated it super high! It reminded me of Haunted House from 1982, was that the inspiration? Also I would love to see you make more horror in the future so I'm subscribing to your itch :)
This House Looks Familiar by CesarGary_ 2020-10-10T19:08:26Z ♥ 1
Suuuper weird and great. Loved the length of the bathtub haha! Hated this key that got out of it, it gave me almost a heart attack. Spectacular work! I wish it gets even more ratings 'cause it deserves it. Somehow reminded me of Marble Hornets and their future works.
Out of the Box by WiTech 2020-10-10T18:40:42Z ♥ 0
Hey, played your game. I got stuck on this level with timer "20:00", was I supposed to survive those 20 seconds? Because the timer didn't start for me. And I just kept dying not knowing what to do next. Also I relate to the code mess thing, I did my game not really knowing the basics of coding :)
Foreached by Puncherbear 2020-10-10T18:33:08Z ♥ 1
Played your game. There were definitely some cool ideas like dashing which I loved. I would change characters movement speed for sure and maybe add some more "epic" events in the game but I guess for a game made in 3 days it's a nice foundation for something way bigger. I liked overall aesthetic and music too.
Loop Lock Malfunction by GuitarBro 2020-10-10T18:22:34Z ♥ 2
Great game. I loved how you can adjust your dodges to the music. I would work more on the mouse camera movement, it was little hard to control it and cursor was a little distracting. Other than that I loved your game, great graphics, audio and an original concept too!
Into the Space by Integrated_Rk 2020-10-10T18:12:19Z ♥ 1
Wow great. I loved it especially on 250 speed. Definitely you should point somewhere that SPACE is the control button.
Dream Chaser by Sengi 2020-10-10T18:00:59Z ♥ 1
Wow such an amazing experience! I loved your music, loved the 3d/2d graphics mix and the whole concept, very touching indeed <3 I would change a little thing, being able to skip first cutscene would be nice, like skip it only after second time and onwards.
Tales Of Horror Beneath The Cabin by DinoPandaStudios 2020-10-10T17:51:48Z ♥ 0
Played your game, I was instantly hooked by the menu graphics, really cool vibe and art style. I would suggest that the flashlight could be a little more bright just to see more than those rooms corners. This creepy audio made me think that somethings about to happen then I got killed I think? (room 7), but I couldn't really see because of the flashlight.
A Night Around the Fire by arron-fowler 2020-10-08T11:25:04Z ♥ 1
Great game. Little laggy and the character was not always doing what would be ideal for him (hiding on the front side of the tree where aliens can see them). But I really loved this one button idea, it still has some tensions in the encounters. Nice entry
Dead Loop by Tom_A 2020-10-08T11:17:20Z ♥ 1
Wow nice entry for a first game jam. Really solid game design and overall execution.
Mission ∞ by ryzy27 2020-10-08T11:04:45Z ♥ 2
Hey played your game but this black fog really made it hard to see those aliens. It's a shame because I couldn't appreciate your work more. What was the concept? A cute little game with bubble sounds or a horrorish game with scary aliens? Loved your graphics still couldn't see them because of the fog
BUSHIDŌ by wujood 2020-10-08T10:34:03Z ♥ 3
Really loved your game! Like it hooked me right from the beginning and I really wanted to finish it but - am I the only one that got stuck at the "respect your environment" level? I got enough points and it still loops for me. Also I liked the little whistle sound when he jumps :) Also why does the scroll look like a dead mans hand? ✌️
//nevermind I tried it another time and managed to win! super fun experience would definietely pay for a full version of this game
Untiled Runner Game by WatermelonAndMe 2020-10-08T10:18:22Z ♥ 1
Great little game. Haven't encountered any bugs. Maybe the character could run a little faster, just a little thing to fix. Big smartphone potential so keep working on that
Loopscape by Tolga 2020-10-08T10:07:59Z ♥ 2
Great game. The atmosphere was really dense. At first i thought "wait, you're showing the monster too soon!" but then i thought "it's a comedic relief to not overwhelm the player". I couldn't find the key tho but I really tried hard - maybe a glow or a sound that will indicate it? Other than that great short horror game!
Something to Tell You by Blind Lemon Games 2020-10-08T09:52:15Z ♥ 1
Yeaaah, a great experience, unsure of what this all meant but I liked it. Maybe a little more obvious hint would be nice to implement there or just something to clutch on?
Permit A-39 by kirroyal 2020-10-08T09:36:23Z ♥ 3
I loved your game, super interesting concept. Stairs were a little pain to get on to. Maybe some clever way to remind you - not literally 'cause it could ruin the fun of the game - where you need to go? This game could definitely serve as a memory training tool :)
Chronophobia by Valkija 2020-10-07T20:55:20Z ♥ 1
Great graphics and Amnesia vibes. After random amounts of loops I couldn't move after i died/went insane. Also an outline would be nice so player will know he can read books. Also it was really hard to read them letter colours to grey? There was so much to do and I couldn't figure out the whole process. Still very enjoyable game. I'm amazed that it was made during such a small amount of time
Light footsteps after the rain by Chocolat-Endive 2020-10-07T19:45:14Z ♥ 1
Wow! I'm kind of speechless! This is a great, almost spiritual experience. Somehow it gave me reminiscence of a Russian game 'Pathologic' wchich is my Holy Grail! Loved the song playing in the background. Do you keep those answers that people gave at the end? It would be interesting to see what others wrote.
Resurrection by etrealjunior 2020-10-07T19:29:21Z ♥ 0
Wow I almost missed this game because of the starting level - in my opinion it's a poor choice beacause it doesn't show the good parts of this game. Loved the variety of levels and overall graphics. Death mechanics were really punishing for such a cute game, also in the first level, you die and you need to repeat the process all over again.
Ape Space by Pinauna 2020-10-07T19:05:18Z ♥ 1
Hah this is a really cute game. Kinda hard too. I couldn't see those arrows in the beginning, maybe try changing their colour so they will not merge with the environment. And lastly. Can we have a special points button for BOWIE REFERENCES !?! 👨🎤👨🎤👨🎤
Me, Myselfs and I by davision 2020-10-07T18:41:06Z ♥ 0
Interesting game. Couldn't grasp how to reproduce myselves tho
We need to talk by bereg 2020-10-07T17:51:38Z ♥ 1
I loved the concept, it is super unique. Still, although I liked how you blended genres, I just wanted to keep having this dialogue and those cards somehow felt like a chore. Somehow they didn't make sense in a conversation context. Still I love original games and rated yours high just for the concept itself, despite "not feeling" it.
Beat Bash by Overlook Studios 2020-10-07T17:26:17Z ♥ 1
Truly a great game! I could recommend to add some audio hit at the first beat to indicate that the fight has started and maybe something that tells you prepare so a player would not need to get that information by looking at something, just from the sound. Other than that this game is awesome.
Frozen in Time by TwoHands 2020-10-07T16:55:42Z ♥ 3
Loved the music - one little thing - it was too quiet so it's crucial to turn it down after you've played the game not to make your ears bleed. I really liked the graphics and overall vibe. After second orange pressure plates i couldn't find out how to proceed. Still it captivated me for quite a while and i enjoyed playing it.
Atermon by aemiliu5 2020-10-07T16:07:31Z ♥ 0
Loved the music - gave me this kind of silly/manly vibe. While running my eyes were blasted with stimuli wchich made me not see too good - maybe try changing FOV a bit? Kinda lost on what to do in this game. Like I could give it more time if I really liked maybe a story hint or something or a little Objective Message somewhere.
Shadowbox by MatchaMaze 2020-10-07T15:51:46Z ♥ 1
Loved the music, have you played the piano yourself? Theme was implemented very well. Oozed with atmosphere. While playing I was in a mood for something faster but it captivated for quite a moment. Very meditative.
Recursion by DrunkardWolf 2020-10-06T16:43:32Z ♥ 1
Great game. As someone said killing the monster makes it less scary or even not scary till the end. But still this is an awesome game considering it was made in 2 days. Chasing scenes are scary as hell. Oh and it was super hard to kill the monster - needed to repeat it a few times - so I really appreciated nicely placed checkpoints. Also initial sounds of the monster were a little oddly placed from what I experienced and I didn't really knew from what direction he will start chasing me
Delicious Quest by Saering 2020-10-06T11:19:35Z ♥ 1
Super neat concept. Graphics are bomb - like 10/5 stars. Desperatly needs sound and music.
Hamster LOOP by Scintillae_Creations 2020-10-06T11:07:15Z ♥ 0
A solid entry. Loved the hamster wheel idea - mechanic wise. Didn't care for it on like an aesthetic taste level. Music was kinda bland also some sound effects would be nice. Still a solid, playable entry!
THE INNER CIRCLE by backurio 2020-10-06T10:56:24Z ♥ 2
This game is pretty ok. Maybe a little too much walking or Ludum Dare short attention span made me quit.
Epsilon - 2D Atmospheric Platformer by Sherwin Claridge 2020-10-06T10:42:46Z ♥ 1
Great atmosphere, for a game made in 3 days it's magnificent. There was some junkiness in the player movement while airborne, but it's nothing you can't overcome while playing - once again - a game made in 3 days!
Stasis Break by 3mpty 2020-10-06T10:09:42Z ♥ 1
Solid entry for sure. If I was a Schmup Lover I would be ecstatic!
Loop On Neck by Evileptic 2020-10-06T09:40:11Z ♥ 1
Cool little game. Made me think - wait - after I died I still got a health bar? and I need to go through hellish rocks to finally rest? In hell?! Also I don't mean to be a prick but shouldn't you OPT OUT of the Audio category if you didn't made your music? //https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aG7JW5Pn9ug&ab_channel=MarinaKrueger
minotorus by AceArcher 2020-10-06T09:27:43Z ♥ 1
I followed your posts - it gave me the vibes. Tried your game and the first thing worth noticing was the junky camera movement wchich made me unable to play further. By junky I mean glitchy. I know your pain tho, I also made a FPP game in WebGL and oh boy it's a pain with the mouse movement.
ARCPG by Liam Twose 2020-10-04T00:37:41Z ♥ 1
Cool little game, works on the phone wchich is a plus. Has some addictive potential. Kinda dissapointed that you didn't work on it more, especially the graphics.
