Bloodletter by shp 2019-05-01T17:57:01Z ♥ 1

One of the best compo entries I have ever played so far-- addicting gameplay, smooth movement, and satisfying gunplay! I love the slow-motion mechanic, and I feel like this feature is what makes the game so fun to play. Fantastic game.

World Class Track Meat by Dan Thompson 2019-05-01T07:55:57Z ♥ 1

Hilarious concept, with fitting music as well! You definitely nailed the humour compartment of this game!

Devil Slots by SlashAntSlash 2019-05-01T05:11:29Z ♥ 1

The gameplay was pretty addicting, I found -- especially after getting upgrades! Although I didn't find that the difficulty had much of a ramp throughout each wave. By the time I got to the last wave, I don't think I got hit very much at all. The gambling system actually felt balanced, since you only had to gamble a certain amount OR if your life is <50%. I think this would be a really fun rogue-like game if you decide to continue! :)

Contract Cleric by Vinay Rao 2019-05-01T01:33:52Z ♥ 1

Great concept, and pretty well executed! Definitely depicted the RPG genre successfully, at least as a healer! I feel like there was also many opportunities to add elements of humour. The difficulty also felt like it gradually increased throughout the game. Overall, fantastic work!

Fun game! I really liked the detailed art (especially on the real estate), the music was fitting, and the game represented the theme effectively. I don't think the difficulty was too harsh, but I do feel like the enemies' movements can be quite unpredictable. Overall, great work!

JUNO by DeathBySnail 2019-05-01T01:15:07Z ♥ 1

Solid controls, simple yet effective graphics, and the music is pretty good as well! My only qualm is that when accelerating, the camera eventually pans past the player character, and I can no longer see my ship. Other than that, great work!

Bloody Runner by DidiGameBoy 2019-04-30T19:06:25Z ♥ 1

Simple but really effective game! Easy to pick up, and hard to put down-- I really like the aesthetics as well! One suggestion I have is to maybe have the character's hitbox be a bit smaller, since there were a lot of instances where I ended up grabbing 3-5 different objects without being able to dodge them. Other than that, great job! game.png

Somnambulist by LancesCaterpie 2019-04-30T18:49:17Z ♥ 1

Amazing game-- I'm actually disappointed that this doesn't have more ratings!!! Everything was so polished, from the execution of the theme + narrative, the art, music, and especially the controls and gameplay. At first, I found the game to be quite difficult, but after getting used to placing down different memories in mid-air and quickly toggling back to normal, it became extremely addictive. The movement reminds me of Celeste, and although it is fast-paced, it felt smooth to play! Great work!

One More Year by EvoGenGames 2019-04-30T09:01:35Z ♥ 1

Gotta say, props on using Excel VBA to make a game! Brings me back memories of my old job, hahaha!

Microtransaction Mages by Jeremy Ryan 2019-04-30T07:53:11Z ♥ 0

Really well-made game; the pixel art was amazing, the music was great, the execution and concept of the cycle of working to make money to play a game was spot-on! Great work.

Let's make really bad life decisions... by FanManPro 2019-04-30T03:57:15Z ♥ 1

Really creative take on the theme! I also loved the art you did for the various coins. One bug I often came across was clipping into the ground when I fell from a high distance and not being able to jump because of it. I ended up having to restart the entire game when this happened. I think it might have to do with how the collision is set up, but other than that, really great work! :)

Computers in a Nutshell by gonutz 2019-04-30T02:49:57Z ♥ 1

I feel dumb right now, I cannot seem to get past the very start of the game (although I know this is part of the game). I tried adding --decrypt-log to the end of the file name, but that doesn't seem to work. :S Really like the premise so far though!

American Healthcare by Abraxas Interactive 2019-04-30T02:31:43Z ♥ 1

Really creative gameplay concept! Takes space invaders to a whole other level. Being able to control the direction of your bullet along with your ship really amped up the satisfying feel of the gameplay.

Rock, Paper Scissors: After (School) Hours Edition by SpliceDev 2019-04-30T02:21:58Z ♥ 0

At first, I found the controls to be really hard to remember, but then once I started associating the controls to the OPPOSITE of what was being shown on the screen (eg: Z = Beat Scissors, X = Beat Rock, C = Beat Paper), it started becoming super addictive. Great work! rps.png

A Deal with the Devil by OmnipotentIndie 2019-04-30T02:01:21Z ♥ 1

Great game! Gave me vibes from Nuclear Throne / Gungeon -- completely forgot about upgrading and dashing, until the end of the game. :[

Nexcidium by keanutah 2019-04-29T21:44:59Z ♥ 1

Great vertical shooter! I think if you include the option to move forward/backward, while ramping up the difficulty, it'd be a really good bullet hell game! Interesting use of the theme, and charming pixel art.

Pay Me in Blood by casperj 2019-04-29T17:46:00Z ♥ 1

Really fun puzzle game, and quite clever! With some more levels, I feel like this could be a really great mobile game.

Blood Mage: Human Sacrifice by tdg_ 2019-04-29T04:47:25Z ♥ 1

Interesting concept, and the cards were actually quite well drawn! I feel like it'd be a really great battle system for a bigger turn-based strategy game project in the future.

invertebrae by jjjjason 2019-04-29T04:09:57Z ♥ 2

Great interactive fiction, and really creative! I like the concept of being able to go back into the past and changing / seeing different events based on the words you collect throughout. This would be a really great project to continue on, by adding even more branches to the narrative!

KNIFE=LIFE by QuadApe 2019-04-29T02:25:02Z ♥ 1

Strangely addicting game -- the mid-air shooting mechanic is really satisfying!
