Loved the idea. The art is great.
The music was a little frustrating, and my bullets collided with my own head.
Looks like you tried to aim big for a Game Jam. 😉
I'd like to see where this goes.

I'd like to see where this goes.
Great visuals and audio. I just couldn't get past the first level, as the controls are quite awkward, and I think the hit box on the character is a little too big. At times it doesn't even look like I made contact with the enemy, but then I'm dead. A little tutorial, or super easy level would've worked nicely as well.
Audio and Art is really great in this game. Seen this concept in a few places this game jam, but this one is the most polished thus far.
Really nicely done
Those babies are stealing all my food! 😆
Very nicely done, fun browser game!
This is very well done, typing tutor game. Would've loved to have seen an option to adjust speed and text size. But nicely done!
This game needs way more ratings! It was terrifying... I wanted to switch it off the moment I started playing! Not because it's bad, but because it's so good at being scary...
The silence with the little bit of noise and static in between really did a good job at keeping me on the edge of my seat.
I was unable to complete the game unfortunately, cause I might get heart failure. 😆
A very lovely little game. The controls are simple. The art is consistent and well done. It feels nicely polished!
Overall, very well done. 😄
I couldn't stop laughing at what I was doing! 😆
Had some good fun with this game!
THE GOOD: - The running feels smooth - Challenging!
THE BAD: - Wish the bats moved a bit - The jumping can be improved. The longer you hold spacebar, the higher you jump, and on release you start falling back down. (Mechanic used in a lot of games like this)
SIDE NOTES: - This is a Game Jam entry, not a COMPO entry. Therefore using pre-made assets are perfectly fine as long as it's not an asset flip. - As a programmer, I can tell that a lot of work went into putting everything together. - Games are deeper than just their sounds and visuals. - They did opt out of Graphics and Audio, so this is a very fair entry. - IMPORTANT: @jag, I would list all the Assets used in your entry to be transparent with everyone voting on your game.
I kept thinking something was going to jump out at me... That ending though... Also the game started when I clicked on a button other than play. Then I was unable to play the game again, as it just gets stuck on the input screen.
Really fun game, and really set a tense mood!
Nice game concept.
The planting of traps was nice, and the stuck in a look was done in a unique manner.
The audio effects were a bit loud, I ended up muting the game after a while. Also I would've loved to have seen bullet animation, as I couldn't tell that the shooting mechanic was actually working.
This game needs more ratings!
I really liked the graphics and audio of this game. The cursor confused me for a bit, it looked like a tiny bird or something. 😝
Really fun little game. You need to rate other people's games in order to get your game bumped up higher 😉
Very neat little game.
It feels smoothly polished! Would've loved to have seen some kind of different levels or enemy types.
But this is done very well.
This is a gorgeous looking game!
THE GOOD: - Graphics and audio is great! - Great concept, with potential for making it a great game - Tutorial in game! 😄
THE BAD: - The movement is slow, when not using the loop mechanic. - I was still a bit confused at exactly what I had to do. - It feels a bit too reliant on luck?
Otherwise, well done overall!
Interesting concept!
I wasn't sure what I was doing. I am very anti-social in general! 😆 Art work is wonderful. The "share" sound effect is a bit annoying.
A lot of potential!
THE GOOD: - Great graphics - Lots of potential - In-game instructions! ++
THE BAD: - No sci-fi music 🙃 - No button, robot, movement sound effects - Was looking forward to more complicated puzzles. (Lots of potential here)
This feels like one of those Zen games.
Very neat idea. The graphics are very pretty when you've got something going for it.
Would've liked to have seen a tutorial of some kind in-game.
The music doesn't really suit in my opinion, something more Zenlike would've worked a lot better.
lol Error: 303
Read your description.
I totally know the feeling, I've been there before. Game Jams are the best way to push your self to learn new skills.
I know this isn't the game you wanted to make, but here's some feedback.
-------------------- Doing this in one hour is still very good, as it seems like it's working as intended. I would, however, have liked to see some sort of player feedback to confirm that it is registering my keyboard mashing. Like a power-up sound effect for each bar.
Well done for submitting something!
I gave your game a go. It seem like time caught up with you.
I can see what you went for, and it would've been an amazing game. However, after defeating the boss for the first time, I received 2 Normal Points. I was unable to spend those points on the menu unfortunately. I'm not sure if this is a bug or if you ran out of time?
Let me know.
Please submit a link to build of the game.
This sounds like an amazing experience. Unfortunately I can't make this kind of call from South Africa. 😭
Fun puzzle game
THE GOOD: - Graphics are pleasing - Physics are handled well - Very innovative! - So many loops!
THE BAD: - Would've like some music and sound effects, but it's excluded, so no negative vote - Would like to see more levels and different loop abilities - End Game screen would be cool for a player reward
Hey, You need to build your game and upload a playable version of it. If possible create a itch.io page and upload an HTLM5 version of your game there.
Can confirm, link is broken.
The concept is great!
THE GOOD: - Racing games are always cool - The loop being the course itself - Voice acting is funny! - Leaderboard! - Instructions are in-game
THE BAD: - The course is very difficult - I only had patience for two laps 😢
@tradingbooch12 I downloaded the .jar file and it's not opening anything. I have Java V12 installed. Would you be able to upload in a different format?
Loved the humor!
THE GOOD: - One button game, makes it simple - The humor is good - The curiosity to know if there's more has been exposed 😄 - Player feedback/reward is great - Really stuck in a loop!
THE BAD: - I got a little stuck when the button vanished without any hints
Loved the game!
THE GOOD: - Can never go wrong with a classic arcade - Combat is smooth - Burst is an amazing touch - Enemy animations are well done - Easy mode (I needed this for the first time) - Controls are in game! 😄 - Enemy warning signs - Enemy get tougher the more they are damaged!
THE BAD: - I wanted more levels! - Some smaller annoying side enemies would've been amazing
SIDE NOTES: - "Stuck in a Loop" not quite there, but bullets loop so I'll give it that 😉 - Bullet loop was a little unclear, but the "Don't shoot yourself" gave me that hint
As a software developer, I loved this game!
THE GOOD: - Theme executed perfectly - Puzzles are really good - I couldn't help but finish, as I had so much fun - Sound effects are nice
THE BAD: - I didn't know that REPEATS will execute commented code (Figured it out by accident after thinking some levels had a bug) - Levels aren't ordered from east to difficult. - Would've loved some cool sci-fi music - Took a while to figure out that I had to match the output with the [While != ]
Nice little game!
THE GOOD: - Different ghosts are a nice touch - Random teleportation is a nice mechanic - Animations are great
THE BAD: - The game gets difficult very quickly. (Lots of ghosts, moving very fast) - Firing delay is very long. (Removing the delay would make this a fun shooter game) - Would've been nice if the above story and instructions were in-game.
Nicely done for you first COMPO.
I love this so much!
- Music is amazing. (What did you use to make it?) - The alien eyes are a nice touch - The Abduction ending is so funny - Stuck in a loop, nice spin on it
Nice little game.
THE GOOD: - Executed the puzzle mechanics flawlessly - Perfect looping mechanic - Dialog is great - Puzzles are really nice
THE BAD: - The music "dinging" is very loud and becomes painful after a while - I got stuck at the Black and White diamond puzzle. I couldn't interact with either. Maybe I'm just dumb, but let me know. 😝
TO IMPROVE: - Rewarding the player for interacting with world objects. Random easter eggs are always fun. (I know time was limited) 😄
THE GOOD: - Great art style - Loved the concept - Could be very fun with a few small changes
THE BAD: - A mini tutorial on game controls would've been cool. - The river rises and falls too quickly, coupled with the slow minion movement makes it very difficult to get anything done, otherwise this would be a blast to play. - Building a farm and tool shed too close to each other causes the minions to bounce around a lot. - Some feedback to the player would've been nice: I can't tell when the minion is mining or not. - I didn't quite catch the "loop" theme, unless it's the minion washing away all the time? 😄
Fun little game. Took me a while to understand that I die when I run out of ammo. Nice that the pickups are maintained after death. I did however find even the Easy setting very difficult. Not sure what they keys are used for. So I ended up running around dodging the enemies and luckily found the exit.
I will rate your game once the ratings open up.
Hey, Just a heads-up. Your game is taking a long time to load. It might put some people off from trying to play it. Maybe include download links for PCs?
This is a really fun game! I beat the reaper at his game.
I had some trouble with landing the jumps, the character slide around a lot. The theme was a bit more towards killing than keeping alive. But this game could become a thing if you keep working on it and make it multiplayer!
Love the idea! The graphics are good, the audio is great. Although the song did get a little much. (person opinion I guess) Would've loved to have seen a few special abilities you could trigger. 😄
This game has great potential. I love the concept and style. I would've loved to see it have some nice soundfx or ambient background music. The theme was a bit 50/50 to me, as you're killing to keep alive 😄
I would play this if you decide to make it into a fully fledged game
Very well done! This was a really fun game to play.
I wish it was longer 😄 Keep at it
P.S. I loved the Wilhelm Scream in there
The concept is there and the mood is nice and calm. It's not the most creative game unfortunately, I've played a lot of torch games this jam. The achievements was a nice touch.
Maybe a creature or two that lurks in the dark, or something fun in between.
Would've been nice to see a little bit more from a team this big.
Keep at it and I'm sure with a few additional features this game can be a lot of fun to play.
I like Dark Dungeons. The general concept of the game is great, I finished the end boss. However I'm not quite sure about the drop torch and shoot key being the same, and some ambient music would've been great.
Otherwise, well done 😄
Wow! This is probably the first pixel game to give me goosebumps. The sound and mood was perfect! Just one suggestion is to add a way to lose that monster from chasing you. 😄
The concept of this game is amazing. However I had a few issues: - I couldn't click after I went to the second node (restarted and continued playing) - The map went off the screen after a while - I didn't quite understand the combat, especially if I didn't have the correct items - I didn't have any audio, not sure if that's a bug. But some nice ambient music could've been nice
I really liked the idea and the general concept. Keep at it.
Love the graphics. Would've like to see some more animations and a slightly longer game.
Overall great idea. 😄
Interesting concept. Unfortunately I was a bit lost and didn't quite understand what I had to do. I kept dying, but the music and graphics are great.
Gorgeous game! Love the concept! Just wish it was a little faster.
17 Days. Fun little stressing game lol
I broke the world record 😄 Nice clicker game.
The controls felt amazing, the graphics we done very well, the game narrative was great! Unfortunately I couldn't get very far, the bullets moved a little to fast compared to the frog movement. Would've been cool if he could leap.
The overall concept is great. Would be cool if you could give him some smoother animations and movement. Those lasers also don't have quite a clear indication on when they're about to switch off, which made timing difficult.
Otherwise, well done :)
I feel like I can meditate and reflect of life playing this game. Would be cool to see different levels or themed plants.
well done
38 seconds and wow it gets ridiculous very quickly! But in a good way.
This is a fun little browser game, well done. :D
Love the idea, I just had some trouble with timing to get the funky stuff to start happening.

Cybermachine by coolestdoggie 2022-10-06T16:18:49Z ♥ 2
Love the concept of the game.
Would love to see a bit more rules to the random weapons. Like certain conditions increases the chance of getting certain spawns.
I had the energy drink, pistol, and medkit way too often and ended up running away most of the game.
But really loved the overall experience!
Bad Thoughts by House Trap Jay 2022-10-06T15:37:54Z ♥ 3
Love the concept of this game!
The audio is amazing, and the visuals are great.
I wish the aiming was a bit more snappy, and not so wobbly.
But well done on the game!
GLUB? by DJTequila 2022-10-06T15:32:19Z ♥ 1
This takes "memory like a goldfish" to the next level.
Really love the concept, and had a good laugh at how retarded I am for not being able to remap the controls in my head. 😆
Tempus by balduin 2022-10-05T20:09:18Z ♥ 1
The game has very creepy atmosphere which has so much potential.
Would've loved to see a create or something chase you in the dark to add a bit of pressure and suspense. 😉
The door and the cap by vkaike2 2022-10-05T20:01:32Z ♥ 1
Love the survive for 10 seconds design. Game feels super smooth and polished. Overall an amazing entry!
Robot by Shuimen 2022-10-05T15:07:39Z ♥ 2
I love command based games like these. Really nicely done.
I was confused at first, because the window size didn't work well. But after playing on itch I got the hang of things. 😄
Robo-soaker by DeltaMain 2022-10-05T15:00:31Z ♥ 2
Gorgeous art and gameplay style. That aiming and perspective was a little strange at first, but once I got the hang of it, things got easier 😄
Field O' Fiends by Baconeta 2022-10-05T14:00:14Z ♥ 2
Love the art style and concept of the game. I struggled hitting things quite a bit, but spamming the attack button did the job after a while. 😁
Brightsight by simba 2022-10-05T12:44:55Z ♥ 3
Love the way this game plays.
The Intro and Tutorials are really well done.
Got some StarCraft Protos vibes. smile
RogueDungeon: A Deck Builder by thedude3600 2022-10-05T12:43:46Z ♥ 1
This reminded me of those old ASCII adventures! Really love this concept with the commands you feed to the hero. The art style also really suit the kind of era these kind of games comes from.
SENSATIONS by etrealjunior 2022-10-05T12:17:59Z ♥ 3
I love the look of the game, but after a few min I actually got really motion sick. I guess that is what it would feel like to play game drunk. 😁
Well done on how well and polished the game feels.
Cosmic Crashers by mrjeremy 2022-10-04T21:24:44Z ♥ 3
Feels really smooth. I would've loved a dash mechanic, or if the ship was a little faster. The overall design feels good and was really fun to play.
Torquemada, Heretic Slayer by Kostas Nik 2022-10-04T21:20:01Z ♥ 2
Outstanding game! The dark mood was really well done. I would've liked to see fewer available candles, as I ended up having over 20 when I died. Some tougher boss monsters would've also been amazing.
Really good game though, it feels really good!
Radioactive Rocket Fuel by JonathanG 2022-10-04T21:12:11Z ♥ 2
I love the vibe from this game. It's a bit awkward steering with the arrow keys though. It would've been amazing to steer with your mouse cursor, and to be able to use the WASD keys as alternatives to the arrow keys. I managed to reach the red planet 😝
Clockwork Owl by spacefudge 2022-10-04T21:05:05Z ♥ 1
Gorgeous game! Love the arcade vibe!
Just had a few performance hits when the cogs are spawning, and the close shop button didn't work.
But really well done!
Spooky Glitch by nicorm 2022-10-04T20:45:16Z ♥ 7
I'm amazed at how many mini games you've made. Although I wish I could spend more time in one before it switches over to the next. But I guess that is the idea behind the game 😄
Nicely done!
Alone by Oliver Plass-Wolter 2022-10-04T20:27:43Z ♥ 2
Love the gun only shooting every 10 seconds. I was a bit confused when the game started and there was nothing to shoot. Then I saw the bugs in the bottom corridor.
The book of time magic by Senso 2022-10-04T20:19:14Z ♥ 1
This game is fabulous!
It took me a while to realize that I could combine the different colors to make the spells stronger. But I was unstoppable once I figured that out.
I just wish the enemies moved a bit faster, or spawned more frequently. I never used the healing spells, and I was killing things that weren't even on screen yet.
But really love the overall concept.
