Color Is Everything. by csanyk 2014-12-12T04:03:00

I really like this concept. I had been thinking about doing something similar at a later date. It seemed tough to catch criminals, but easy to jack up your score at the same time. Not sure if this is a design problem or feature :)

The Tower by Chaoseed 2014-12-15T03:44:00

This is pretty cool. It has an eerie vibe.

Snow Problem by TehSkull 2014-12-11T04:48:00

The only game I've seen thus far that gets 5 stars for "Mood". Sorta reminds me of the The Binding of Isaac.

The Reaping by zatyka 2014-12-15T03:34:00

I like this game. The point & click interface was well done, although I'm not sure I figured out how to make much progress. Night seemed to come rather quickly.

Twilight of Humanity by wilbefast 2014-12-13T17:24:00

This game is pretty cool, although I had some trouble figuring out what to do. I did get bigger if I walked into the fire though :). I also threw many sticks into the fire. The graphics and music are well done. I didn't see any rabbits so I eventually starved.

SideLands by MoltenMustafa 2014-12-12T01:03:00

This game is pretty awesome. I somehow skipped 2 areas, but I had fun playing. If you were to expand on it, I might make the side-to-side movement more refined than jumping, so you could set up your jumps for carefully & then have more complex levels. It sort of plays itself once you decide which direction to jump. Either way, I thought it was great. Awesome job!

Crang! by Capro 2014-12-12T01:17:00

Won't load for me on Firefox.

Lycklig's Stone Toss by cardboard 2014-12-13T20:32:00

I enjoyed the art & music. I'm not sure it's possible to actually get the stone in the bucket?

DotHop by Teejay5 2014-12-13T20:45:00

Fun idea, but a little hard to control where you're pointing. The art was really great! Also, I couldn't get the Web version to work.

Front Line by enepomnyaschih 2014-12-12T01:22:00

Pretty impressive! The first strategy game I've played on here. It was a bit hard to see, but was still pretty fully featured for the time constraints. Good job.

Insecticide by Nate Kling 2014-12-15T03:30:00

A well done title, but there instructions were lot to take in initially. It would be cool if there was an on-demand key to see if the matchups would be favorable or not, rather than just the info screen at the beginning.

TV World by Levi D. Smith 2014-12-11T05:00:00

Cool entry! I like the idea & the aesthetic of the game, but you can get pretty overpowered pretty quickly as long as you don't die immediately.

Cheap Peripherals by TheMaster99 2014-12-12T03:58:00

*player leaves the room* - I most certainly did not! Fun concept, but the platforming was a bit wonky. Still, I like the meta aspect.

Frostbite by ShellfishGames 2014-12-13T21:44:00

I enjoyed this game, but I eventually had to quit because the gravity change room was making me nauseous. I liked most of the mechanics indvidually (bridge building, bouncy platforms, etc.), but using them all at once felt sorta jumbled. I think that there could be more focus on the theme, besides the subversion with the TV.

Robot Fighting Arena! by Pabakal 2014-12-12T00:50:00

Unzips to 121MB! Eek. I enjoyed the soundtrack & skybox.

At Last, This Will Be Our Final Battle by Laddo D 2014-12-12T00:45:00

Cool entry! I like the take on the theme. I also really dig the characters and animation.

Cube Destroyer by Hendri 2014-12-12T05:05:00

The approach was pretty simple, but I liked it. It would be cool if there was any indication that a hit had registered, or maybe if the bullets stopped on contact.

Screen War by sfdnetwork 2014-12-13T22:10:00

Interesting concept. I haven't seen something quite like this! Although after losing once, I restarted and just spammed turrets and won pretty much instantaneously. If there was more strategy need in placing those, it would be a cool tug of war concept.

Collect the Crystals by Wiering 2014-12-15T03:41:00

This is a great entry, but it feels lacking. The zoom is so tight that you can't even see the platforms next to you. It would be cool if you could toggle the zoom on or off. Also, you the spikes don't seem to penalize you, and you can jump infintely. Still, I think this entry shows a lot of promise.

Allspark Ruumba by Nardom 2014-12-11T04:35:00

I really like the style of this! I love anything that is "floating in spacey". I found it hard to play, though.

Block Dungeon by Lancelot Gao 2014-12-11T04:19:00

Had fun! I love the semi-3d-kinda-isometric view.

Train of Thought by anissen 2014-12-11T04:25:00

I really like this idea! I happened to suck at it, but I could see this really hooking some players.

TURN it UP by pkenney 2014-12-13T21:56:00

It seems like there is a good idea here, but I had a lot of trouble grasping what was going on. It seemed like you could walk into all the enemies with no penalty (regarding death anyway). Anyway, you seem to have a solid idea on your hands, but it could possibly use some streamlining.

Sleep Over Tussle by woodenrabbit 2014-12-11T04:54:00

I really enjoyed this, although my clicking finger got tired quickly. It would be cool if there was some type of indicator saying which powerup you had at the time. It was also kinda hard to keep track of enemy health with it all displaying at once. Maybe their models could change color when hit? Either way, great job!

Spike Jumper by bobmandude9889 2014-12-12T04:57:00

I enjoyed this game. Remniscent of a Meatboy/IWBTG type game. I would have enjoyed analog controls though, I personally hate playing platformers with a keyboard. Overall I thought it was well done, and the level transitions were cool. Although, as others have mentioned, the hit detection was a bit wonky.

One Screen by shyupuff 2014-12-15T03:55:00

This game is pretty great. Clever & grim take on the theme. Wish it was longer, though.

Organ Crush Saga by Teesquared 2014-12-13T21:23:00

Fun game, if not a little derivative. I thought the organ theme was really cool, but got frustrated trying to actually complete the objective :)

You Can't Stop Christmas by Milktoast 2014-12-12T01:09:00

Seems pretty easy, if you just spam a bunch of turrets & upgrade them, you can't really lose. It also seemed like the music cut out after a bit.

Although, it seems like there is potential! You've got a solid base, and it would be great with maze building & whatnot.

Penguin Savior by Samuel Arminana 2014-12-12T05:10:00

I enjoyed playing, but it did seem like there was a lot of time spent crafting the theme, which left the actual gameplay kind of lackluster. Well done on the models.

You are Green by Downtown 2014-12-12T02:29:00

This game is pretty great. I love the art style and the mix of the 3D with the bullets & obstacles. My only complaint is the problems don't play by the same rules and also get stuck on the obstacles. Such is life, I guess!

Ludum Fortress by EthanWebster 2014-12-13T22:04:00

I like the item buying concept, it sorta reminded me of a tower defense! However, it was a lot to manage very quickly (for instance, reloading appeared to come out of nowhere, as well as the guys who could actually shoot). I think if the enemies scaled up more slowly, I'd enjoy it more. Good work.

Planetiod by laluis1 2014-12-12T00:41:00

I had trouble figuring out what to do. Interesting concept though.

Seasons Simulator: Winter by Nobuyoshi 2014-12-14T18:11:00

I enjoyed the soothing nature. It would be cool if there was some soothing music as well.

Advanced Mayonaise by ZTO22 2014-12-11T05:07:00

I really enjoy the art. The flying dude creeps me out. He globs on to you in a funny way if he gets close. Aiming seemd a bit wonky, though.

Guard Duty by peterkirk 2014-12-15T03:22:00

Great mood & presentaiton, although there wasn't a ton of player feedback from what I could gleam, I just appeared to be assigning safety to rooms. It eventually ended and just restarted very quickly, and I'm not sure how I died.

A maze Land by Vladik_Plays 2014-12-13T21:28:00

It reminded me a lot of Chip's Challenge with the key concept! It would be cool if there were more levels, or additional enemies. I liked the art for the player :)

Dancing Shadows by marsermd 2014-12-15T03:49:00

This game is awesome! I love the concept. Not entirely on theme though, imo.

Traffic Cop by ondrejbalas 2014-12-12T02:34:00

I love that no cars ever leave. I've just been watching it for a while now. Actually, when I tabbed back over, everyone had stopped a few trucks were in the grass :) Keep workin on it!

Bug in your room by Harley77 2014-12-11T04:22:00

I was hoping there would be a game featuring cat-tossing. I was somewhat disappointed that I couldn't seem to toss anything out the window.

Horde Mode(s) by DefectiveMelon 2014-12-12T05:17:00

I enjoyed myself while playing, but I did find it to be a bit repetetive. Once I learned that I could kite all of the enemies, it was pretty much just down to running around in circles. A different pathfinding mechanism is needed perhaps? I did really like the song though - it sounded like something out of an N64 Rare game. Shame you have opted out of Audio!

It's SnowMazing!!! by Sharky 2014-12-13T21:50:00

Cool game. I liked the song, and that you went with both themes. The accelerated maze concept it cool, but more levels would be nice :)

Psychologist Simultor 2015 by Moee 2014-12-12T01:28:00

Hilarious. I immidiately messed up and had to restart, but I like it. Plus, I really enjoy Breakout!

Tight Angle by lase 2014-12-12T01:11:00

Good points GAFBlizzard.. everything you mentioned was planned, but time ran out on me :)

Orbit Jumper by Luminar 2014-12-11T04:31:00

I love games with jetpacks, orbiting stuff is cool too. It can be counter intuitive the way A and D work, though

Cobot by GameQuester 2014-12-13T17:33:00

I think this a pretty cool game. Simple, but fun mechanics. My one complaint is that that dying sets you all the way back at the beginning - it would be cool if it was the previous portal or something.

RGB Shooter by MMOOxy 2014-12-11T05:11:00

I love this idea! However, there doesn't seem to be a downside to letting two of your ships die (as it's hard to focus on them all at once). Controller support is awesome though! I'd love to play a more refined version.

Temple Swapper by rayman1900 2014-12-11T05:17:00

Interesting concept! It would be cool if there was a bit more perspective in the Z direction. Opening cinematic was cool as well.

Core by MrSun 2014-12-12T05:01:00

This game is awesome. I can't think of much to change - but unfortunately I can't think of anything to help you expand on the idea either. It's the perfect contest entry, but will be challenging to move ahead with. Great job!

Razor Dodgor ( Razer Dodger) by shotty456 2014-12-12T02:39:00

Cool game! Got hard to play quickly, but I still enjoyed it for what it was. I could see it as a mobile game.

Flaming Resistance by whitematterteam 2014-12-13T18:47:00

I really like the feel and mood of this game. The sound was excellent, and the fact that you had a story was cool too. I found the controls to be a bit frustrating, though. Not having any influence over your character in the air leaves you a sitting duck on the second section as well.

PaintBoxWars by Mirakill 2014-12-11T04:41:00

I really like the aesthetic, but I was sort of confused on what to do. It also bugged out on me a few times, but it seems like you could be on to something pretty awesome with your frame buffer technique!

Infinifall by Bloxri 2014-12-13T22:47:00

A cool idea with the ever descending platforming. However, the spikes and obstacles were really hard to see, so I had trouble telling what kiled me.

Snow Buddy Loves You: A Snowoperative Adventure by Norgg 2014-12-13T21:08:00

The building mechanic was neat and well done. It would be cool if the Fire Things spawned at a lower rate but also knocked pieces off of your house they collided with it. I appreciated the option for co-op and we had a lot of fun playing. Great work!

Blockade by TheGreenTie 2014-12-12T00:55:00

Great game. Love the idea & the bgm, you can't beat the Wombo Combo inclusion. I did feel like I had to stop playing after a few minutes though, I felt like my brain was rumbling.

Deicide by Tifu 2014-12-13T20:54:00

What VDZ mentioned about feedback basically echoes my thoughts. While the art & controls were well designed, I didn't really have an idea of what I was doing or how to progress. Cool idea though.

Save The Cities by DomNomNom 2014-12-11T04:38:00

Fun! Nice take on a classic type of game. I really enjoyed when I shot the city myself :)
