Fate's Flower by Prismapunch 2022-04-20T14:26:41Z ♥ 1

Love the art style and having time as your sole resource is pretty clever, however it wasn't immediately clear that getting hit removed some time, maybe instead of a timer, a life gauge that decreases over time would make it clearer. Soundscape is nice but feels a bit empty. Controls are a bit awkard, mapping "jump" on the "up" arrow or the right click would make it more ergonomic I think

We Need To Talk by Doot 2022-04-19T21:32:02Z ♥ 1

Really fun ! The art style is really cute, the music and sound effects really sell the "fighting game" gag really well, and the moves are stupidly fun. Very cool !

Last Core by Jajakeim 2022-04-19T17:20:27Z ♥ 0

Pretty nice ! I like the fact that you're invincible, it's counterintuitive but fun to run into the bullets to protect the core

The big ADIOS by Tobias Kiehnlein 2022-04-19T17:18:20Z ♥ 2

The music is really great and the art is simple but works quite well. Gameplay is fun but the totems seem very weak, to the point that I'm not even sur which does which effect

Not Enough Time by LauraQwerty 2022-04-18T12:44:22Z ♥ 1

Nice mechanics, great way to create the feel of a zombie invasion without having to actually to the zombie invasion x) . Like the use of time as a resource, however it is not clear enough what each action will do. I didn't try another game after the first because I had no idea what I could have done better

Reckless Reaper by twinkietalks 2022-04-18T12:36:33Z ♥ 0

Pretty simple, but addictive ! Hitbox of the cars is maybe a little bit too big, sometimes you lose by not switching into a lane that has only has a tiny bit left on screen and it feels like this last-minute dodge should be possible but it's not

Inevitabone by Leandro4002 2022-04-18T12:30:59Z ♥ 1

Pretty nice ! Like the UI that allow death to taunt you for the whole thing, also the switching up of the things that you have to avoid is really fun ! Too bad it doesn't have an unlimited scoring mode though and that the game doesn't actually tell you which afterlife you're going to get according to your score. But all in all it was pretty fun !

Kore o Kawasu by lilkrit 2022-04-18T12:21:05Z ♥ 1

Fun concept ! Has mentionned you can just jump off the edge though, also game didn't load for me when pressing play after opening the manual, I had to restart it

Doctor's Orders by mharring 2022-04-16T21:44:29Z ♥ 1

That's pretty good ! This really nicely creates a feeling of routine and of holding on for dear life, music contributes to it a lot. It would benefit from having minigames that are separately more interesting (although the sleeping one is pretty cool). Also I think it would be more fun it time gauge was decreasing a bit slower but with more punitive minigames

1 Man 6 Bullets by Raphaeltan 2022-04-14T23:11:06Z ♥ 3

It's really great ! The time system reminds me of Superhot, and it goes really well with ricochet mecanic

22h38 by Katutt 2022-04-14T23:04:32Z ♥ 2

Nice graphics and music ! Game is just the right length, as another zone would have felt a bit repetitive to me. Puzzles are a bit too simple but there is a lot of potential in this turn-by-turn timeloop concept; pretty cool !

The Endless Night by Arivenzys 2022-04-14T22:42:19Z ♥ 1

The art is gorgeous ! Music is pretty nice but a bit slow, doesn't really match the gameplay. All in all this was pretty fun, but the arrow keys didn't work for me making it a bit more difficult

Block or Bust by 100th_Coin 2022-04-14T22:32:19Z ♥ 1

It's really absurd and really fun ! I would have liked to be able to control with the arrow keys though, and I had to start the game again to figure out how to launch the broom again, so a reminder of the controls in the pause menu would be nice

Word Wizard by Slecornu 2022-04-14T22:21:07Z ♥ 0

That's quite fun ! Playing with different dictionaries is a nice touch, and the pauses of the wizard are hilarious. Difficulty hits you a little bit too suddenly (in all the runs I made, once I lost 1 life I lost the other two right away). Also I had a bit of trouble locating the start button the first time

Click to Continue by Daniel Foutz 2022-04-13T22:58:24Z ♥ 1

That was awesome, soooo funny, and the voice acting is amazing ! Reminds me a bit of Stanley Parable

Different Strokes by Scott Steffes 2022-04-13T22:37:02Z ♥ 2

Wow this is so cool, really impressive and beautiful !

Ejected! by Spaint 2022-04-13T22:26:22Z ♥ 2

Great game ! It's pretty fun to try and use various things to go faster. Elements are a bit hard to see though

Snooze by LancesCaterpie 2022-04-13T22:13:18Z ♥ 0

Fun take on the "snooze" idea, it quickly gets reaaaally hard though, a bit frustrating

Reversary by AploveStudio 2022-04-13T22:07:12Z ♥ 0

Great concept ! The story is fun and the art is pretty cool, however the combats aren't much fun and get a bit tedious, you end up being impatient of the gameplay bit being over to see the next cut scene. Went to level 15 and I don't have the patience to try again to see where the story goes after that (especially since it doesn't fill like I can get good at the game, it feels like it boils down to getting lucky and get a round where the hero doesn't feel like attacking), but it was definetely going in an interesting direction

You will fall by adobobo 2022-04-13T15:36:27Z ♥ 0

Tricky but addictive ! I like the soundscape, really sets the mood with very few sounds

Campfire by Shadowcast 2022-04-12T22:38:06Z ♥ 1

Aww, I knew this jam would probably have some sad games, but still :s. Great story and metaphor, starting and passing dialogs by clicking would have been more intuitive I think (would have prevented me from exiting the game to figure out how to start it anyway)

Kiwis Can't Fly by DDRKirbyISQ 2022-04-12T22:21:32Z ♥ 1

It's absolutely gorgeous ! Love the dynamic music, gameplay gets a bit repetitive but it's quite okay for a short game like that, really sweet and touching experience

Annihilation by Schuster 2022-04-11T16:04:18Z ♥ 0

Nice concept, very fun and satisfying ! Art is simple put effective and the music is pretty nice too. I think a difficulty a bit more progressive would make the game more enjoyable, or maybe if cooldowns were a bit shorter. As it stands you're overwhelmed really quickly, which feats the theme well but makes the game a little bit too short without really a possibility to get better

Stuck In The Hypertext by RealTanHen 2022-04-11T15:55:33Z ♥ 1

Nice story and art ! Dialog sound is a bit annoying though, and I would have appreciated closing windows with a right click or escape rather than clicking on the top right corner everytime

Shotgun King: the Final Checkmate by benjamin 2022-04-11T15:48:51Z ♥ 1

So fun and polished ! Couldn't figure out why certain moves that would put be in arm's way were forbidden while some others were allowed and resulted in my king being taken though

Escape Horizon by FrozenTea 2022-04-11T13:40:43Z ♥ 3

Pretty nice ! It gets real hard real fast, the inavitability is indeed real. The music is catchy but maybe a bit short, I heard plenty of loops in my 2 minutes of survival

Doomsday Cult by ConradoClark 2022-04-08T20:58:30Z ♥ 1

Fun concept and art style is nice, that the minigames either don't score enough points to make anything or a wayyy too hard, it made me impossible for me to get any points. Also I missed how you're supposed to get artifacts ?

Pyre by Foursay 2022-04-08T20:36:12Z ♥ 1

The music is really nice and the graphics are simple but create a pretty good atmosphere. Gameplay is a bit repetitive though especially as you go further and further away from the fire. Ending cutscene is gorgeous ! Although I had no other way to quit after that than alt + f4

I Sink Not by eeldam 2022-04-08T20:19:02Z ♥ 3

Nice style and really fun idea, it's really fun to build this improbable bulk of a boat. However I tried to put only sails and it seemed to work a little bit too well ? I stopped that run after 3 minutes but I don't what would have stopped me to continue indefinitely ?

Dads don't die by kremlebot 2022-04-08T20:09:29Z ♥ 2

Really nice art and music ! It's a shame that it cuts abruptly when starting a "minigame" though, it takes you out of the experience a bit. Also using another font would give more personality to the texts, especially since it's the first thing you see in this game

Those Along The Way by egawag 2022-04-07T22:03:14Z ♥ 5

This was an amazing experience. The art is simple yet really beautiful, the music is great, the camera work is outstanding, and the poem... All in all a very touching short story really well executed, I'll definitely check out more of your work ! Is "chromatic window" a recurrent Game jam team that you guys make up, or are you an indie studio ?

teleBOTation by Phoenix Fireflower 2022-04-07T21:36:50Z ♥ 1

That's pretty impressive ! The mechanics are well introduced and easy to understand, the feeling of the teleportation is great, all in all this leaves me wanting more, I can totally see myself playing this for quite a few more levels :D Just one thing, is it on purpose that the switch on the bottom of the last level is totally unecessary ? You can just use the inertia to push a box withing the laser range

QUIT GAME by Korvack 2022-04-07T21:06:30Z ♥ 1

Oh the absolute mayhem, it's pretty fun, love the screaming sound effects. Although I quit almost quit before starting the game, thinking that the impossibility to click play was the gag and that it was all there was to it

DeadFlame by Conroy 2022-04-06T22:58:46Z ♥ 1

The gameplay is really fun, it's a handful juggling between the fire and the zombies, you really feel like your doom is inevitable indeed. Pressing e to drop wood is a bit awkward though, maybe a right click would feel nicer ? Also I'm not sure why I should ever use the pistol instead of the rifle ?

Sir Blocksalot by jhandsy 2022-04-06T22:46:46Z ♥ 3

Really nice art and music, gameplay is nice but it isn't very clear when does a run start and when does it end, sometimes it seems like you lost but the elements you placed before are still there, I'm not sure when is dying part of the run and does it reset the game

Male Pattern Boldness by Choo 2022-04-06T22:36:26Z ♥ 1

It's really silly, I love it ! Really enjoyed cooking up the most ridiculous head possible

Over the Rainbow Bridge by Iguanana 2022-04-06T22:23:45Z ♥ 1

Short but really sweet :) Don't take it the wrong way, but maybe you should opt out of the "fun" rating ? It feels weird to rate it on that criteria (I decided not to) since I really don't believe that's what you're aiming at

Dr. Jan Itor by VorpalSnark 2022-04-06T16:28:35Z ♥ 0

The concept is super fun and I love a good Scrubs reference x) However I wasn't able to survive, the first doctor is always too slow to bring a body to the morgue

Eye Fly by Koolruz 2022-04-06T16:14:51Z ♥ 0

Like the concept, but I wasn't able to get passed level 3. Maybe I'll give another go when I'm in more of a mood to try hard x)

The king is dead, long live the king! by goudcode 2022-04-06T16:04:32Z ♥ 2

Pretty fun and challenging to try and manage everything at once, really keeps you busy

Drowsy Drop by barce 2022-04-06T15:59:53Z ♥ 6

Really nice graphics and music ! Wasn't able to beat the game though, there's a little inertia in the character that makes it hard to control

Oedipus Rex by Brachistosauro 2022-04-06T15:54:34Z ♥ 1

Good idea, and a lot of content to go through ! Using a prophecy as the inevitable thing to delay is pretty neat

Snooze by the_nacho 2022-04-06T15:47:49Z ♥ 1

Fun idea, the clumsiness of trying to hit snooze is well transcribbed x) . I wasn't able to get any sound though, I believe it takes away a big part of the experience :s

Stir Cry by icxon 2022-04-05T22:38:17Z ♥ 2

Graphics are pretty cool and the game is really fun :) It's bit hard to aim with the curve but the feeling is great

Crab Battle by cottontshirtz 2022-04-05T22:32:11Z ♥ 1

Ahah, wasn't expecting the ending, pretty funny :)

Day-leave-ry by Nidel 2022-04-05T22:27:15Z ♥ 2

Simple yet heartbreaking, love the atmosphere :) Maybe consider checking the option to click to run it fullscreen on your itch.io though, it would help get immersed still a bit more :)
