Salvos by magus77 2022-04-07T13:21:25Z ♥ 2

beautiful artwork! a little jittering, maybe due to camera update timing (lateupdate?)

Well done.

Cursed Unicorn by gord10ahmet 2022-04-05T22:45:07Z ♥ 1

Hard game, but liked this a lot! Great job. Nice story and mood.

Darko by Sodoj 2022-04-05T22:41:55Z ♥ 2

This was AWESOME. Really well done. A little unclear at the beginning (I was trying to slash and dash but didn't realize that I had to look at enemies). And sometimes there were no enemies for me to reach. But really really well done. This is probably my favorite so far. What great style.

WE ARE DOOMED by andrground 2022-04-05T22:36:32Z ♥ 1

Clever! I was expecting a few climate change related games, but this is the first one that I've really enjoyed. Could have used some SFX, but the visuals were great. Nice work on the clarity and feedback for what was going on.

Stop The Watch by Calzone407 2022-04-05T22:31:30Z ♥ 1

Cute and simple. Nice job.

NeedyMonsters by Snory 2022-04-05T22:29:52Z ♥ 1

I like this style and mood! Pretty visuals. A little more clarity in what is going on (i.e. a guided "tutorial") would help, but maybe that's just me. Took me a bit to understand what was going on. Info text went really fast and was hard to read.

Reactor Guy by GummiBot 2022-04-05T22:24:51Z ♥ 1

I like this one! Always wished that there were more minigame-style entries in prior LD. This is great. A little more UI feedback would be nice (unclear what my goal is for the minigames and what I can/can't interact with). But great job.

Cars crusher by nyanpierre 2022-04-05T22:21:17Z ♥ 1

Great visuals and FX. Also liked the music and mood. Great entry!

Delay the Flood by Rialgar 2022-04-05T22:17:45Z ♥ 2

Could have used a bit more explanation in the game as to what was going on! But I really thought that this fit the theme well. Really felt like I was fighting an uphill battle against an inevitable end.

Air-O-Space by zoarfy 2021-05-04T22:46:25Z ♥ 2

Clever mechanic for the breathing. Congrats!

Deep Sea Mining by Ausstein 2021-05-04T22:39:25Z ♥ 1

So good! Great entry. Congrats. Would have helped if the $$ updated in real time.

Falling apart by yetanother 2021-04-30T03:43:23Z ♥ 1

Nice atmosphere (wink). Congrats.

Into the Abyss by Sli 2021-04-29T06:47:12Z ♥ 1

Brilliant. This has fit the theme so well. I think the mechanics work quite well together to support it.

Congrats!

The case of the door in the woods by jonah 2021-04-29T01:01:20Z ♥ 1

Gorgeous. Audio was incredible. Fit SO well with the artstyle. The gameplay was very simple but enjoyable, especially because of how reactive the sounds were to actions.

Terrific job!

Grave Fallers by Pavel Smejkal 2021-04-29T00:54:57Z ♥ 1

Nice job! I was a fan of the audio a lot. It sounded like you made the guitar yourself? Loved that touch. This game felt very personal and emotional. Very clean entry.

Congrats!

Planet LD48B by Outfrost 2021-04-29T00:50:18Z ♥ 1

Nice sprites! I found it confusing to understand the goal/context of the game, and what could/could not be interacted with. It would be helpful if the environment can indicate what can be picked up/chopped. E.g. I was stuck in the first area for quite a while until I found a bush that I could cut. But one next to it that looked identical could not be cut. Those expectations are important to set up.

The music was great, and again, loved the aesthetic.

Congrats!

LD46 — Keep it alive (5)

Omiga Daycare by Wheffle 2020-04-20T17:01:04Z ♥ 1

I made $6000! Wow this got hectic very quickly. Cute and stressful. Those omigas poop so much. Great entry!

Keep it Alive by LooksLikeSomething 2020-04-20T16:49:49Z ♥ 1

Grim theme! The controls were unusual but I liked it. I liked the sound tool. Doesn't seem like you put ratings available for it (maybe you didnt make it?) but in any case, I liked your taste of music. Nice job!

VirusTD by RaccoonLudos 2020-04-20T16:43:26Z ♥ 0

I like the theme! A little onboarding/tutorial would help a bit. But I figured it out fine. Good job on a 3D entry. Congrats!

( Neutrophils are a type of leukocyte by the way ;) )

The Call of the Unicore by sndr 2020-04-20T16:40:48Z ♥ 1

Well done! This is great artwork, music, sound effects, etc. Great entry. Nothing critical to say!

TowerHeal by Orzak 2020-04-20T15:13:47Z ♥ 0

I was confused by the controls/mechanics. Maybe a better onboarding/tutorial would help you out! But I love seeing a 3D game in the compo. The character controller was very satisfying, and fun to move around! Congrats on finishing the jam.

LD44 — Your life is currency (10)

Jamsterdam by fonserbc 2019-05-08T16:12:18Z ♥ 2

This is incredible!!! I absolutely loved it. Well done.

We Pay In Blood by PhillSerrazina 2019-05-02T01:33:57Z ♥ 1

This is terrific for a compo game! I got into the game once I had my sword. The rhythm of the combat is fun. Attack and retreat!

Well done.

Dungeon Life by Yadi 2019-05-01T23:20:02Z ♥ 1

Strange sound effects haha. Interesting idea. Somewhat fitting of the jam! I like the walking animation. Attack animatioun could use a little work.

Good solo entry!

Ashes by Sharks 2019-05-01T23:17:21Z ♥ 1

I had some framerate issues on HTML5. The music was a little too loud but this was a good idea. And a fitting tribute!

Ghostly Tricks by Nelson William 2019-04-30T18:40:42Z ♥ 1

This is the best I've played so far! The audio was INCREDIBLE. I could listen to the level changing sound effect over and over. Very satisfying. Also brilliant mechanic. Terrific work.

Improve clarity of the throwing distance maybe? I'm not sure how to critique this. It is just great.

Bank 666 by TheMagesMango 2019-04-30T18:37:10Z ♥ 0

Unfortunately the game doesn't run... :/

Axed by Flamboozle 2019-04-30T18:17:55Z ♥ 2

Great game!! I agree that the balancing of it is a little off, but this is a nice twist on tower defense. I had a lot of fun here. Excellent work!!

Minister 2.2K by Wilgnne 2019-04-30T18:12:04Z ♥ 3

Well done on the artwork! I am confused about the meaning of it as well, but I like the mood of it. Also the introduction text was only displayed for a moment and I couldn't read it fast enough.

Pharaoh's Purse by Vanea 2019-04-30T18:07:59Z ♥ 0

I like the artwork and sounds! But the game needs a bit of clarity work. I got stuck when clicking on a snake to build first, because I didn't know that I had to start with a soul urn. And same thing when I built a lot of soul urns but didn't have enough to put anything in them. It would be good to be able to cancel a build/refund something! Because you can get stuck easily.

Lovely artwork!

Life is Money by Mykola 2019-04-30T18:03:28Z ♥ 2

Cute sound effects. Could use some clarity work for what is what in the game. I didn't understand really what it meant to deposit/withdraw. I ended up just seeing "GAME OVER" a lot, but maybe I'm just bad haha. I also didn't realize for awhile that I was supposed to pick up the cash that each thing released when I killed it.

Nice job for a jam!

Aetherspirit by gwinnell 2018-12-05T23:39:06Z ♥ 1

Great artwork and concept! I got so frustrated whenever I lost :( Good onboarding process too.

Doggo's Inferno by Instafluff 2018-12-05T16:52:04Z ♥ 2

This is hysterical, just played it on ElysiaGriffins stream. So fun and brings the stream together.

Meat Spike by Muzzz29 2018-12-05T02:59:45Z ♥ 1

Excellent job!

sleep by drtizzle 2018-12-04T19:39:25Z ♥ 0

Creepy! Great mood, well supported by visuals and audio.

AI Robot Hoomsday by godsboss 2018-12-04T19:35:58Z ♥ 1

Unclear interface a bit, but interesting take. Seems very similar to this game from BTP game jam last month! https://evilartbunny.itch.io/little-lost-robots

Hide n Seek by iggythegrifter 2018-12-04T17:59:27Z ♥ 1

Wow, incredible mood! Really made me think. Great job. I used to like apples. I still do, but I used to too.

Guardians of Lalaland by blanky 2018-12-04T17:51:20Z ♥ 0

Still a little confused about how to play the game! I like the story and visuals.

Sacrifice Management by Aycan 2018-12-04T17:45:09Z ♥ 1

So fun! Great job on the procedural generation. Funny too. Screw you Donald, everyone hates you!!

Death Wish by Derek Volker 2018-12-04T17:42:02Z ♥ 1

Good job! I struggled with figuring out how to land my punches. But the visuals were amazing!

Follow the Leader by CraftLord 2018-12-04T17:37:17Z ♥ 1

I like the resilience to submit! It is very stressful to do this in 48 hours, and we all understand that here. So congrats on finishing a game! Good work on the audio.

Dungeon Runer by Andrea 2018-12-04T17:32:47Z ♥ 1

This was really hard to understand! I know that was your goal but it made it a little too challenging for me personally. The mood was fantastic though considering this.

Lighter Than Air by simon.parzer 2018-12-04T17:27:53Z ♥ 2

Wonderful game! Took me a bit to realize that I needed to move the characters on the ship around.

JLIM by egordorichev 2018-12-04T01:02:57Z ♥ 1

Incredible!!!

Winter Summer Land by tomdeal 2018-12-04T00:55:44Z ♥ 1

So much fun!! I loved this mechanic. Brilliant to have the snow and grass tiles. Cute music and dialogue too.

Helpless Haggis by David Hunter 2018-12-04T00:51:45Z ♥ 0

I had some trouble figuring out what to do in the game. But the idea is a good one. Great camera movement!

Sacrifice in Space by Marc Grabow 2018-12-04T00:42:49Z ♥ 1

Absolutely wonderful! Loved the audio. Great simple puzzles that hint at the possibilities if you continue with this game! Very polished.

Saving Bris by Fersyvanderzee 2018-12-03T19:34:52Z ♥ 0

Wonderful environment and a funny tone! I got lost outside of the bounds of space. Also I can't figure out how to pick up the fuel...

The story is dense but charming. I loved it. But try to explore ways to convey the story without a wall of text! Something in-game or more visual.
