I couldn't get this out of my head so I had to come back to it. The amount of polish this has is staggering. For what it is, it's near perfectly executed! Definitely in the top 3 games i've tried. Got a highscore of 294.
Sprites are the highlight of the game. Concept is also cool, I like the bomberman-like grid system. However, everything takes too much time for it to be gripping experience. You literally can't do anything for the first minute or two and enemies take too many hits to kill, especially when they're in a pile of 5-8 soldiers.
BTW, you are the #44 out of 70 games titled "Keep It Alive". :D
This was really well made. Behind the scene post mortem was interesting, very convincing 3d-effect! I would love to play this as a real arcade cabinet!
Yay I lost! Silly idea and good execution. My main complaint is that WASD + E feels akward to use in these type of games where you don't use mouse.
My main complaint is that you need to tap to move. It gets pretty tiresome further you play. But I dig the minimal aesthetics and simple mechanics.
I dig the NES aesthetics! I had some troubles with clicking the object I wanted, but complaining about hitboxes is part of NES-era :D Overall, good job, one of my favourites I've tried.
3 plants survived! Somehow, only two survived on my second round...
My highscore 4433. What can I say: Simple concept, well executed. Would work great as a mobilegame.
It was a moody, well polished journey. Felt bad at first, but then I grew numb to all horrors of war and just started treating 'em based on their symptoms severity. I assume that's what happens to real field medics also, so I guess it was immersive experience?
Played it through. It was interesting scenario for a management game. It had handful of typos here and there and at one point my scientist got really busy and could do three science projects at the same time. :D I think I barely made it alive tho.
I like the style, computer controls are a bit cumbersome as others have stated. Finished it on first try with everyone alive, then I had to try out what happens if you aggro the hare.
I don't know what to do...
One of my favourites I've played so far. Charming graphics, awesome music fits the mood perfectly. I finished this in 8 rounds using only basic shooter. I didn't know there was more of those. :D I agree with others that I lost my cursor more than once.
Mood was nice and sound making system filled me with anticipation. Shame that it wasn't utilized more. Also that splashing sound was obnoxius, especially at that end escape scene. Good work for 72h.
I love the artstyle and I would have given it 5 stars, but the overall darkness of playfield and the amount of moving objects makes it difficult to see what's going on. Gameplay wise I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do. First I tried to move away from the place but got stopped by a invisible wall (or lots of enemies, I'm not sure :D), then I figured I should just defend the starting point, but that just drained my health/mana/whatever. Running around in the forest I bumped in to something that made me teleport all over the place. I found one altar on my aimless running around. I would say add some sort of indicator where to go.
I found the overall experience a bit bland. When I noticed at what rate my resources were going down I just had everyone do them and then I was just staring at a empty lounge. Survived 18 days.
Nice art!
Nice game. Needed a bit of time to get hang of it and many trips to info page to check what did all those different colors present. But overall this was moody experiment to mess around with!
This had really interesting idea! I see that you updated game to make it harder. You succeeded. I was really struggling with this and my best score was 2450 so I wasn't able to try other than first level :D I might have to try this again later.
I liked the idea and hoped to get deeper look inside of computers programs, but sadly there wasn't really much to do.
Got 324. I really liked the artstyle!

Sewer's Plague : Into the nest by Nicolas Revillon 2021-05-05T12:01:15Z ♥ 4
Oh man. Just wow. One of my favorite entry so far. Beautiful artwork and fun gameplay. Controls messes up my head, and in a same time they make sense. Great job!
Blackout by Frasse 2021-05-03T10:45:01Z ♥ 6
This is hands down the best jam entry I've played so far. Every aspect of the game was beautifully crafted. My only annoyance was that I couldn't skip dialogue when you basically had to click everything twice.
Orange Diver: The Great Drown by Prostone 2021-05-02T22:40:36Z ♥ 2
Terrific game! Gameplay was a bit slow, but you nailed the setting, mood and theme.
Submarine Salvage by veno501 2021-05-02T17:46:23Z ♥ 1
I didn't really get a feeling of being underwater, controls felt a bit too tight? Some adjustment to physics could do it. Intro was a nice touch.
On one screen I just spawned inside the wall and couldn't move.
Krill X by Swindley 2021-04-29T16:25:21Z ♥ 4
Unique concept for a game and what a lovely art style! I was really confused when I started, but got a hang of it. I tried my best, but got stuck at what is "something sexy", help!
You really should show that art work and put up some screenshots.
The Deep Well by BlueDingo 2021-04-28T12:35:38Z ♥ 1
Finished all 3 levels. It's a bit bareboned, there wasn't much for me to get excited. Challenge doesn't really ramp up when you get more valuable minerals to mine on each level. Nonetheless, good job on finishing the jam!
Potatoes Adventure by Articka 2021-04-28T12:24:27Z ♥ 2
That promotional artwork caught my attention, it is really appealing to me. Silly idea and execution for a game!
I didn't know what to do on third level second phase. Potato seemed to be stuck on the "floor", so I didn't finish this.
20.000 LIGHT YEARS deep in THE SKY by Arivenzys 2021-04-28T12:10:32Z ♥ 3
Presentation is great and graphics are beautiful and polished. Gameplay was nice combination of story and resource management. Pretty deep entry!
There was so much going on that on my first playthrough got rank c. Got to Eden on my second try, when I only focused on those icons alone.
Hellevator by baconn00 2021-04-28T11:06:34Z ♥ 2
Presentation was excellent. Dripping effect on blood/paint was nice touch. A checkpoint system would had been nice to have, I don't think I'll be finishing this. :D Good job for a compo entry!
Nostril Navigator by Xenon27 2021-04-28T09:53:19Z ♥ 0
That animation on the finger was nice touch! Shame that there isn't much of game in here; Any sort of score mechanism would had been nice. Polished entry nonetheless.
Sticky Diagnosis by made3 2021-04-28T09:22:26Z ♥ 3
Man, that was a big guy! I went over 1300cm and didn't reach the back of its throat! Joking aside, you nailed the theme and art was good, showing that guy sweating was a nice touch. Using left mouse click to confirm was a weird decision when you didn't need mouse for anything else.
Sadly I ran into memory leak error (played web build) and the game crashed so I didn't finish it. I left game on that game over screen and went AFK for a minute or two and when I returned, there was a error message.
Burrow by frnknstn 2021-04-27T21:14:13Z ♥ 0
Cute game! It was a bit confusing first what I was suppose to do, but figured it out on my second try. Maybe add some indicator when the food gets stored.
Spitz: After Intercourse by Nathalia Hohl 2021-04-27T20:46:01Z ♥ 4
I have several questions. I'm not going to ask any of them.
Full points for theme!
Selkö by Doot 2021-04-27T19:19:37Z ♥ 4
Nice atmospheric experience. Great usage of lighting, it blended suprisingly well with that pixel art. I would liked to see more on the gameplay side, but even just clicking everything to see what happens was entertaining enough. In that way this reminded me of some of those edutainment games I used to play as a kid! :D
Cave Rider by Iker DÃaz 2021-04-27T18:54:51Z ♥ 0
Needs a bit more work. Enemies are hard to dodge and some of them can attack you from below, which is pretty cheap. Maybe slow everything down and gradually speed things up would also work, so you get some time to get used to the challenge.
Dome Romantik by Rongo Matane 2021-04-27T18:23:45Z ♥ 0
That menu art got me hooked right away! I really dig the minimalistic style this game has. I did die couple of times, because I always overextented my dives! After I got hang of it there wasn't much of a challenge, got to the end easily. Also liked the simple mechanics this game had. If you decide to keep working on this it would be fun if the swinging cargo would affect players trajectory.
