Very cool entry, I really love how you used the theme! This is also the first time that I'm seeing someone take the concept of missile command in reverse (basically you place the bases strategically so that they don't get hit by the projectiles going in a straight line), super ingenious! Loved the simple graphics and the palette of colors that you used. I did find the spark sound a bit too loud compared to the flower placement sound but it's very minor compared to the overall entry. I think this could make an awesome little mobile game, you could even have different types of flowers that have different properties, etc. Great work!

Easy contender for top-10 games of this jam, amazing level of polish and attention to gameplay. Outstanding music / mood, and an original tether mechanic that was really fun to play with. Fives across the board, outstanding work!

Lovely game! I had a bit of a hard time when there were a lot of enemies but otherwise it was really fun to aim/kill enemies while chasing treasures downhill. Great execution and fun gameplay. Lovely entry!

what an awesome little game, it really plays like a finalized, well polished professional game you would find on the app store. Really tricky at first, I finally was able to get good coordination with the controls and the game turned out to be a really fun fast-action paced game. Outstanding graphics and music, really fun grapple mechanic, really great entry overall!
Fathom Commander by Adam Martin 2021-04-30T04:42:59Z ♥ 1
I was able to pass 3K on my 3rd playthrough, this reminded me quite a bit about FTL, I would have loved to see the repair progress as well. Overall awesome entry, really well polished and fleshed out, perfect fit with the theme. Lovely graphics and mood, great gameplay with proper pathfinding/3d graphics etc. Really great job! The only thing I would fix is that the UI doesn't scale properly according to the screen size (I have an ultrawide screen) and the buttons overlapped some of the power management elements. Otherwise outstanding work!

It's absolutely mindblowing what you guys pulled off in just 72hours. What an awesome, wholesome game and universe. Really fun gameplay, music, art, voice acting and story. Having detailed such as having animated 3d characters, having their mouths speak in sync with the voice, all of that was just really really great. Awesome job altogether!

Really awesome little game with great 8bit music and pixel art. I love the dash mechanic, it added a lot to the puzzle. Great animations and level design altogether, this was really fun to play!

This is awesome, I'm amazed at what you were able to pull off within just 48h! That's really crazy! Great job on the graphics, music and gameplay. I love the mechanic of having to properly place the blocks, it makes the whole game really interesting as you dig deeper.
Between the Lines by GibTreaty 2021-04-29T04:14:35Z ♥ 1
Really awesome entry! I love how you created such a deep story, the mechanic of seeking clues, traveling left and right to make progress. Like others have mentioned, a medieval tune would have been outstanding, and perhaps a bit of sound effects when the player figures something out, giving a bit more rewarding feedback to signal that the player is making progress. Otherwise I really loved everything about this, I'm actually quite curious about how you pulled the light effect in the ruins, that was really cool!

Man do I hate that shark!! Great fun little game, love the upgrade mechanic, it was really fun diving deeper and deeper for treasure. Oh did I mention that I hated that shark?!? :)

wow I'm blown away by the quality of the visuals / shaders / music for a 48h solo jam. This is just so amazing, holy cow! awesome job, I loved it from start to finish, it was a blast playing with the torchlight, just swimming away and seeing all the visual artifacts come into life. I did feel bad about that leaking submarine but it didn't seem like there was much we could do :)
Awesome, awesome compo entry!

loved the quirky humor and gameplay! mixing this with really great audio and really cute pixel art, this is such an awesome entry! Love the take on the theme, I really had no clue how far down those quests would go before coming back up. Loved the ending as well, especially given that I'm currently watching The Expense :)
great job!

awesome little clicker game, I have no clue how some folks were able to go above 2Mil, but props to them! Lovely music and really fun to see the multiplayer competitive aspect to it. You've picked my curiosity with this new juicebox game engine! :) Hope to see more from your team!
Deeper and Deeper by minibobbo 2021-04-28T03:59:40Z ♥ 1
what an amazingly polished entry, such an awesome job on the graphics / gameplay / level design! I wish there were more levels! awesome level of details, and I love the torch mechanic. The only thing I would advise you to do (other than a full version of the game) is to make the death loop faster -- if the player dies, just bring him fast at the beginning of the level to keep going. Awesome job altogether, I had a blast going through all 8 levels
Beyond the Canyon by Dante2001 2021-04-28T03:50:33Z ♥ 1
awesome story game, really heavy on several critical themes and I am sure it will resonate with a few folks that will play your game. Great mood, beautiful music and very smoothing gameplay that leans right into the story. Awesome job

Great little platformer, it was really fun to go and chase down all those coins, the timing was really well done to make it challenging yet fair. Lovely graphics, and I love the pickaxe boomerang effect. Overall the only thing I would improve would be to make the music loop a bit longer, otherwise awesome job!
Johnny Debt by haztro 2021-04-28T03:15:59Z ♥ 1
what an awesome/original take on the theme! I was confused at first because I felt like there was no way to properly repay folks I would be borring money from, until I realized that was the whole purpose of the game, using a ponzi scheme to get rich fast by accumulating the biggest debts possible, living the life and then trying to survive while having to face the reality of having to pay back folks. Awesome graphics and refreshing gameplay. I did find it a bit hard to judge where the folks I owned money to were located using just the arrow on their profile picture. Awesome game!

my first playthrough I was too tempted to just let it go and see.. turns out I ended up like a panini but that was quite entertaining :) third playthrough I was able to beat it, mostly due to luck with a few clouds saving my butt towards the end :) great take on the theme and fun gameplay!

Like the others, I would have loved the ability to keep my last command rather than see it reset between all runs. I really loved the graphics / music / gameplay. It's just super polished for a 48h solo jam, awesome job!

wow it's crazy to think you pulled off such a polished 3d platformer in only 48h, awesome job! Like the other comments said, I think the main challenge was working around that camera angle, but with a controller it was actually not too bad. Really awesome graphics / gameplay. Great content as well with 4 different world types / physics. I especially loved the rope jumps. Awesome job!

Fall by Mika314 2021-04-27T03:23:43Z ♥ 2
What an awesome little rhythm game! Loved the catchy music, easy difficulty was a bit underwhelming so I went to hard mode and really loved it! The only issue I saw was that on an ultrawide screen the beat tends to fall really really close to the top of the screen, making it a bit challenging to see what's going on. Otherwise this is an awesome little gem!
Reel Deep by frenchie 2021-04-27T02:56:13Z ♥ 3
Awesome game, I love how polished this is. Amazing music/graphics/gameplay loop. I still think it's unfair that I see more treasure coming back up than I see going down :P Also I hate the little fish.
One of the best jam entries out there by far!

Really fun little puzzle/platformer! Thanks for providing the ability the undo a move, I loved the different challenges with the water/rock/box as I was going down the level. Nice addition of LD48 using the level tiles btw! Audio was quite funny :) Great take on the theme, awesome job!

really loved that entry, got 198 after hitting the slicy metal twice in a row :( hats off to a theme really well respected, great graphics and audio, solid controls as well. Funny thing is that after playing your game for a few minutes, I looked at your game screenshot and my eyes were being tricked into seeing the character move even though the image was still :)
Awesome game!

I had no problem playing and loved the take you had on the theme. The enemies were all kamikazes and most of them died without having to face my amazing/deadly torpedo aim :) In the 3 runs I did I never saw a big treasure chest, are they only found really deep? Really fun to play!

Dash To The Core by GreyBeetle 2021-04-26T17:19:37Z ♥ 1
I love what people pull off with PICO-8. This is such an awesome little idea and it was really fun to replay through a bunch of times to go above 300. Similar to old arcade racing games where you had to reach checkpoints to get more time, you could also add similar challenging checkpoints that could add more time to the bank.
The only thing I would change is that sometimes it was challenging to see the score I made given that you're using the same key for thrusters as the key to start the game. Very polished otherwise, great job!

the xbox controller made a huge difference. I love lunar-type games and this was an awesome take on it. I loved the mechanics and gameplay (thanks for adding some healthpacks!). A space-themed music would have been awesome as well. Really well done overall!
