This was really fun! No crashing issues for me. I couldn't understand the enemy fish situation. If there were specific fish that attack or not. I played for a while and then I randomly died. I'm thinking some monster attacked me. I loved the atmosphere, concept and gameplay, was bothered by suddenly dying and not knowing how I died.

This is super fun! I was able to access and play. My only issue is that it is too dark to see enemies. The graphics, gameplay loop and sound design is great.

All of the art and music I could see and hear was really good!

From what I understand you are piloting a ship via the tv. But I would fail every time and do not understand what was happening. I wish there was a tutorial or explanation.

Great work on the visuals and sounds! However some of the playback of the sounds was broken.

Steel Coffin by ChrisBeck 2025-04-09T22:00:20Z ♥ 1

This was a refreshing take on a sims management game. I did have some difficulty seeing the different rooms. They were very dark and hard to decipher. Outside of that, really cool concept and art direction.

I think the music sounds like original compositions for LD57 and if that is the case they sound really catchy. They are simple midi sounds, but whoever wrote these songs wrote some really catchy music!

I wish the pacing was much faster, there seemed to be long pauses between dialogue.

This was so fun! This is the first game I jumped into to review for LD57. This is a really entertaining gameplay loop. I love the rougelite elements, mining aspect, combat.

I think I played all the way though without understanding how the shield system works.

My only wish would be to have more content/items, but I understand this is a game jam and can't knock you for that!

Get Away Your Pitchforks from My Oak! by Hammerer 2024-04-16T20:29:56Z ♥ 4

This is a very creative approach to gameplay! I did have the same issue as some others where my mouse clicks weren't registering. I couldn't quite figure out what the zombie hand spawn summon does. Great work on the graphics/imagery and overall concept.

I think this is a funny idea, but I wasn't able to really do anything except immediately fall off the unicycle. Sometimes when I start if I hold "A" and "D" at the same time I get a second to see what is going on before the lose screen pops up, but just 1 second. Maybe I'm just a trash unicyclist lol.

Delay The Invasion by Dannyk1994 2022-04-08T20:06:12Z ♥ 1

Great work! I love the pixel art and concept. However, I think there might be some bugs with some of the plants. Some seemed to do nothing despite their descriptions. Very cool concept for a tower defense like game.

Suppress The Press by Frostbiiten 2022-04-08T19:28:53Z ♥ 1

Very smooth and fluid gameplay.

The Inconvenience Store by Glove 2022-04-08T19:24:20Z ♥ 1

6:45! This game has some nice graphics and very smooth gameplay. I however was confused by the concept. What am I doing? What are these colored cylinders? Are they placeholders for tasks you would do at a convenience store? What causes the review meter to suddenly drop sometimes? The review timer suddenly dropping at the end making me lose was frustrating. If I knew what caused that I'd be a little less bothered! Overall cool game!

Piggy Pileup by candlesan 2022-04-08T19:13:13Z ♥ 1

This is fun scrabble / tetris mashup! I could totally see this being a big mobile game!

Horde! by Fear Games 2022-04-08T04:01:38Z ♥ 3

I see everyone else is complaining about the steering too, I agree, but I guess that is part of the challenge. This is a very cool concept but I wish the main zombie wasn't larger. That you started off as one zombie and amassed a horde without getting killed.

There are a lot of cool ideas in this game. Great job!

Holy Ship by jamjamix 2022-04-08T03:45:15Z ♥ 2

This was a very fun concept and I can imagine it being built out so much further. It would be very cool if it were team based and you were all trying to stop the ship from sinking.

I had some issues in the 3rd level with very low frame rates. Other than that it was fun!

Revenge is Inevitable by minibobbo 2022-04-08T03:37:36Z ♥ 1

This is a cool game! It seems like a classic concept.

NeedyMonsters by Snory 2022-04-08T03:30:36Z ♥ 1

6800 was my score.

I think this is a cool concept. I figured it out my first run through. It is an interesting management game. It would be cool to build it out further and have more graphics and animations for taking care of the monsters. Almost like a monster zoo management clicker game. It was entertaining!

Quota Qrunch by macs 2022-04-08T03:21:30Z ♥ 3

This was a vibe! Very cool. I loved the sound design and art style. I wish it wasn't so inevitable, but that was the theme.

Watcher Patrol by BlueCalx 2022-04-08T03:04:19Z ♥ 1

24!

It took me a second to figure out what was going on. I think there is an issue where the turrets aren't working or are under powered. I wish the aiming system was different as well where you could just shoot and aim. I think it would help people understand the rescue if the people/aliens you rescue looked more like your main character. It looks more like a humanoid shaped defender defending what looks like a bunch of pigs or elephant aliens. I think this is a cool concept and if you tweak a few things and expand the game to have different rescue depots you defend at once multitasking it could be a really fun game.

Unladen Penguin by ComicSans 2022-04-08T02:23:20Z ♥ 2

This is surprisingly fun! I think the art and specifically the sound and lack of music could use work, but it is inherently a fun game. I hope to see you build it out further.

Somnipathy by Cyzaine 2022-04-08T02:13:55Z ♥ 3

I really liked the pixel art and sound design in this. I don't think there was an explanation in the story for the monster. It just surprise appears right next to you when you start. Since there is dialogue/text in the game I wish there was something that explained the monster. Aka, I wish there was more content, which is a good thing!

Feed'em all by Gastar 2022-04-07T04:22:15Z ♥ 2

This is a really interesting twist on tower defense! I think this art style doesn't quite do it justice. More vibrant art, music, and sfx would could take this game so much further. Great ideas and concepts.
