The writing and story is super cheesy (no offense), but the platforming felt really solid and the art was beautiful :)

The writing and story is super cheesy (no offense), but the platforming felt really solid and the art was beautiful :)
Graphics weren't bad, but killing skulls was very difficult
Felt insanely frustrating to have to restart after being one-hit-killed, but the roll animation was perfect!
Graphics and mood are great, but at the beginning it's quite hard to find enemies, and the enemy pathfinding could be greatly improved. The often landed right on top of me, or vice versa :(
Really nice game, love the mechanic!
At first I was super confused... then after reading through the comments I thought I figured out what to do, but couldn't get it to work predictably. You have guts for making such a difficult mechanic, which I both love and hate you for. The art is top notch, but some music would've helped a lot. I really wanted to help those people... :'(
Probably my favorite entry this Ludum Dare. While it brings nothing new gameplay-wise, the art is beyond beautiful, on an emotional, more-than-aesthetic level. It feels like it should be a book. I want to explore this world. I want to meet its inhabitants. I want more! Bravo.
Interesting concept, but not executed perfectly. The rhythm aspect felt more like a gimmick than a feature, and sucking up dark enemies felt clunky. However, the art is quite cute!
Five stars all around (although I feel a bit guilty about giving it that, because things got WAY too hectic and hard to control/manage after the screen split). The graphics and audio are professional level :)
Really love the aesthetics and style, and finding something was both satisfying or mysterious (although the things I found didn't help me find my partner :P )
J'aime cette jeux! L'art est incroyable, et l'intrigue est tres interresant et pertinent. C'est tres amusement aussi! Sorry if my French is no good, been two years since I stopped studying it, and I had to use some Google Translate :P
Neat concept, great art and audio! Very challenging puzzles though :P
Another Ludum Dare, another creepy game by ANGELINA! Virtually no apparent connection to the , and the mechanics are exactly the same as ANGELINA's last two entries. However, the "music", as well as ANGELINA's signature creepy vibe make for one scary game.
Art, music, mood, et cetera are all beautiful! However, the game was a bit slow and the physics/controls were a bit slippery. The combination of those two made the game very difficult at certain points.
Gameplay got a bit repetitive, but the 3D art and animation is stunning.
Really neat game and mechanic. Works great for a puzzle game. The spell mechanic is really clever and cool! The art and music are top notch, but missing one heart piece and getting the bad ending was really frustrating :P
Like the story in the description, but unfortunately it's not conveyed anywhere in-game :( Great art style, though! Some collectibles/coins or a score would've been nice, and the sound effects were a bit jarring.
Was gonna give you five stars overall, but then I realized how short it was. Nothing new or innovative or substantial about the gameplay, but the graphics, oh, the graphics! They're beautiful! The music's also very, very nice. Wish it were longer!
Reminds me of Taquito Tower (http://whybotherplayinggameswhenyouwilljustdieandforgetthem.itch.io/taquito) and Katamari, of course. Great weirdness! To paraphrase the Bhagavad Gita, "Now I am become noodle, destroyer of worlds."
First five star overall score I've given this Ludum Dare. Very frustrating, dies 45 times, played for 15 minutes, but I'm glad I stuck with it. The art and music are both fantastically simple, and the story is D'AWWWWW :)
Really great game. Super unique and innovative. Difficult too, but I love the audio!
Interesting mechanic, cool art style! Feels like it could be a bit faster paced somehow, though
Quite difficult and the music sounds a bit buggy, but I really enjoyed the art!
Funny little game! I got a bug (I think) at the kiss, the planets moved apart instead of towards each other (guess it wasn't meant to be :P ). Lovely art, and the audio is a nice touch!
Really innovative and sweet project. The description (and the picture of Mullet Christer!) gave me a great mental picture of your journey. Hard figuring out to rate you in the technical categories, gave you middle of the road :)
Very interesting mechanic, love the use of theme. Graphics are fantastic, and the 2D/3D effect is amazing :) Only criticism, like the other commenters, is too much sliding
Really like the art style, visual effects, and transitions when you "evolve". As another commenter mentioned, the first thing that it reminded me of is the first level of Spore :)
Really like the use of theme, and the graphics are solid. Got stuck in the shop, unfortunately. Definitely bump up the movement speed next time. I also love the music, how'd you make it?
Had a very difficult time playing (lots of error messages, I have no idea why), but the art is beautifully simple
Fabulous game, the graphics and music both fit perfectly. It's also very funny, which never hurts! My fleet of the Galactica, Serenity, and Swordfish only made it to day nine :(
Neat game, reminds me of an old iOS game (think it's called Alchemy?) that I played a couple years ago. Got 53 out of 61!
Didn't get how to play at first, but once I figured it out I had a fun time! The transition between the worlds is devilish :) Next time maybe take a crack making some art to make it a bit prettier and more "you" (nice color scheme though!)
Neat and challenging, makes for a very tense game! Got to wave 8, score of 358
Interesting mechanic, the aesthetics are very slick, and the music compliments it well! A bit difficult and occasionally frustrating, though :(
Very clever concept! Art is very solid. Some music and sound effects would be nice, and something to collect (coins?) might be another cool edition. Or some kind of enemies maybe? But overall, nice job!
Really fantastic graphics and music, and the combat system is very unique!
Really nice, short game, with great art!
Kind of terrifying, I felt very worried whenever I turned a corner that there would be an enemy behind it. It's very similar to Angelina's last entry, but I guess that's to be expected. Next step is to have her (her?) make the templates herself! Keep up the good work!
Really charming little game, and a fantastic puzzle mechanic. Art and music are great too :) Time to go try Angelina's entry!
I reallllllllly like this concept. The Gameboy-esque art is also awesome!
Really fun game, love the music!
My favorite of the competition. It reminds me of Cave Story, but with puzzles instead of combat. Great puzzles, and flawless art and music. Spent at least 20 minutes playing through the whole game, it was well worth it :D
Really like the concept, I think it would make a great finished game, and even what you have is really good!
Really fantastic game, all the little visual touches make it so great! The music and risk/reward system are amazing as well!
So cheery for a fish combat simulator! Great game, super fun, five stars on all fronts :)
Really love this concept, and the execution is really good too!
A bit repetitive, but nice!
Really solid and fun game! All I'm missing is a jaunty sailing tune :)
Amazing game, five stars on all fronts. Very fun and suspenseful, great art and reward system.
Pretty damn near perfect. Five stars on all fronts.
Really interesting concept! Drilling didn't always work perfectly, but still fun!
Controls felt a bit unresponsive, but I really like the Super Hexagon-ish concept!
Nice concept, very challenging!
Really love the minimalistic art style, very relaxing when paired with the white noise!
Really nice concept!
One of the best games I've played so far in the competition, extremely fun and addicting, with amazing graphics, music, and controls!
Love the retro aesthetic!
Pretty amazing game! The only thing that really feels missing is music and SFX.
Nice little platformer!
Really great graphics!
Really unique and interesting game! The atmosphere is very Portal-esque to me. Great opening sequence too!
Really fun game, and the graphics and music are fantastic too!
Kind of hard, but the graphics and audio are fantastic, and extremely polished!
Surprisingly deep and moody for a game about fish!
Took me a while to figure out what to do, but the art, music, atmosphere, and writing are fantastic!
Really nice graphics and tight controls!
Really great social commentary and writing! Great to see games that push the envelope on what it means to be a game :)
Really great game, funny and great art!
Nice idea, and good graphics too! Just a tad to easy and "lacking a goal" though, not that a game necessarily needs one!
Really like the idea, I had a very similar one a while ago :)
Really love "discovering" each of the new powers, and love the Greek-mythology setting!
Really fantastic overall! Love the concept and the graphics, and it's really fun!
Really like the game mechanic and concept!
Fantastic game, and super funny!
Really great overall, and I LOVE the controls!
Really love the mechanic, it's super fun, and the perspective effect is awesome! The graphics and audio are awesome too :)
Nice fun game :)
Really nice art and tight controls!
Love the aesthetics, and the gameplay is really fun!
Love the music and the humor! Couldn't quite figure out how to kill someone, but that's okay :)
Love the controls, the scrolling camera, and the art! However, I can't figure out what to do once I get to the treasure chest :(
Really like the music!
The controls are so tight and fantastic! It just feels "right". The graphics and VFX are all great, and really give it a great retro arcade feeling!
LOVE the retro art! The whole game is pretty fantastic, and the mole guy is so cute! It gives off a very retro and moody atmosphere.
Interesting, I also considered doing a game about Id, Ego, and Superego! Somewhat laggy, but the graphics are great!
Really charming and challenging game! The graphics and audio are both fantastic!
Really top notch graphics and audio! And really fun too! A great badass "beat-everything-up" type game!
So trippy and disorientating! I really love the aesthetics and the copious amounts of spinning :)
Really like the risk reward system, and I found myself constantly asking "Do I dig this up? Do I get a beer? Do I run from the security guy?" It makes for very engaged and fast paced (and fun) gameplay!
Lovely game! The mechanic reminds me of Paper Mario :)
These mechanics are astoundingly genius. For only three hours, this is absolutely incredible!
So great and refreshing :) We need more innovative and humorous games like this
Fantastic graphics, feel very whimsical :)
One of the best games I've played so far! Love the glitch aesthetic, and the whole concept is so unique :)
The sweetest (and one of the best) games I've played!
By far the most unique game I've played so far!
Really very solid on all fronts. Gets fun when the difficulty ramps up!
Really fantastic game, on all fronts. Using premade/copyrighted music is a bit sketchy, but Parov Stelar makes up for it :)
As a fellow young dev (16), stick with it! You did a nice, solid job with this, keep at it.
Fantastic game. Truly special art and music :)
A game has never made me cry. This almost did. Bravo.
Really interesting and unique spin on the "one bullet" aspect :)
Super fun and unique, although a bit hard :(
Superb game, really great job on all fronts (music, art, dialogue, everything!)
Interesting take on Snake, and great music!
Nice game, fun mechanic, and I loved the enemy variety!
Really enjoyed this. It has a great feel to it, really unique.
Very calming, and charming graphics and especially audio!
Truly amazing art! Unfortunately, there were some issues with the camera not panning low enough prevent this from being a 5/5 :(
Super charming art and story, and while it could get a bit difficult, it was so fun that I played through to the end!
Fantastic! I hope to achieve this level of uniqueness and creativity in a future jam!
Great concept and execution! Although sometimes a bit difficult :(
Really interesting concept!
Made me sad (which is good), fantastic job.
Amazing game, one of my favorites in the competition. The unlockable modes give it great replayability. I love it.
Fantastic game! My only feedback for future projects is to make sure the GUI text stays visible at all times (it can get covered by asteroids; or maybe you did that purposely, what do I know?). Again, great game!
Really love the way the car handles. Great game :)
I literally laughed out loud at the escargot joke. Five stars for humor :)
It's different, but not in a bad way. Unique. It's not a game, but it's interesting
Great story. Games don't have to be complex to be amazing.

Quirky, charming game that left me with a smile on my face
Sweep Stacks by excaliburjs 2014-12-27T16:39:00
Fantastic game. Manages to be both chill and relaxed and challenging and stressful at the same time. Extremely polished for 48 hours, all around amazing.
Animal Roar by gillenew 2014-12-27T16:23:00
I adore the art and music!

Very interesting take on the genre, and very challenging!
RIZUMUDEKATTO by EquipeJAM 2014-12-27T16:10:00
Controls felt a bit slow and unresponsive, but I really like the enemy sprites!
Survive On One Screen by mtanton 2014-12-09T01:56:00
The mechanics you have are pretty solid, but I would've loved to see more art, enemy variation, powerups, etc. Congrats on your first completed game!
One Little Driller by galman 2014-12-09T01:50:00
A cute game, reminiscent of the good old days of Motherload. Very satisfying to find something :)
Protector, The Turret by lparker 2014-12-08T04:01:00
The rotation was kind of difficult and clunky, but I really like the missile animation :)
Jolly Jolly Snowfight! by vanZeben 2014-12-08T03:57:00
Really love the art, but the game was a bit difficult
SNOMAN by Jon Reid 2014-12-08T03:54:00
Very hard! I really like the art, but I don't think you used the theme :(
BORDERS by apiotrw 2014-12-08T03:48:00
Nice mood and idea, but I'm not really sure how you used the theme :P
Complete The Ludum by bakudas 2014-12-08T03:45:00
A very hard game, but I dig the art and audio :)
Pony Island by Danman9914 2014-12-08T03:40:00
Well that was... quite an experience. A moody masterpiece in weirdness. Five stars!
My Wife is a Screen by theholychicken 2014-12-08T03:35:00
I really like the use of theme, and the game feels very tight and responsive. However, some audio would've been nice, as well as some health bars. I also experienced a glitch were I was able to still shoot, move, an no-clip after dying :P
LaCkLIGHTTT by SwineTheZinester 2014-12-08T03:30:00
The collisions and difficulty feel a little off, but I really like the art and music!
The Biggest Snowman by refreshcreations 2014-12-08T03:22:00
A fun idea, but it felt a bit not-tight, and the rules were also a bit confusing
Cardinal Attack by Insality 2014-12-08T03:10:00
Really fun mechanic, and unique too! Got to 25 seconds.
