TAKE THIS!!! by SonnyBone 2011-05-08T15:38:00
Very nice graphics and nice angle to the theme!
What i missed was some resistance from the badguys (if they were badguys, innocent civilians?).
All in all nice, but lacks variation =)

Very nice graphics and nice angle to the theme!
What i missed was some resistance from the badguys (if they were badguys, innocent civilians?).
All in all nice, but lacks variation =)
Nice gameplay mechanics with the fire-whip and whatnot. Somewhat difficult to control the height of the jumps, but the overall feeling of the character-control makes up for that.
Good job!
Nice graphics (especially the crt effect, felt like an old c64 game). Also good to see a couple of bosses. =)
Good job!
Very nice, but a bit easy. =)
I think this game has very interesting and nicely done gameplay features, expanding it with better graphics (8bit style?) would make this a hit. =)
Good job!
What i liked
+ The graphics - very nice!
+ Controls - Liked how i could control the gun with the mouse
+ Upgrades - Big motivation for me to continue playing, wondering what's next. :)
What i did not like
- Weapons - hard to see, just 1px size?
- No Sound?
- Controls - lacked the spaceship feeling
All in all, good game! =)
Very very nice, the best I've played so far.
What i liked:
+ The controls, i like games where i'm to blame for any errors
+ The graphics, looked fun when i hit a wall
+ Audio - very under-watery
I feel that this could work in a horizontal world as well, perhaps with a powerup or two. =)
The alignment of the tiles are due to me moving the tiles 0.5px every frame instead of 1px every 2'nd frame. =)
Also, using wasd for scrolling can make life easier. =)
hm, that's strange.
this is the version needed (3.5)

Drag the ball
Nice graphics, to bad the game was so god damn hard i could only survive to the second wave (where there were some nice effects). =)
Fun!
I loved how the bears chased everyone =)
The thing that makes this game break is the slow speed combined with starting over wayyy at the beginning when dying. It would also be nice if the tiles where a bit prettier =)
So, speedup + newtiles + checkpoint = good platformer =)
Fun! Liked powerups and the parallax for depth, not as bad as you made it out to be. =)
The first game on this LD I've actually finished. =)
The puzzle-concept is good, but the level design seems a bit rushed and using rars for different levels are cure, but annoying. =)
Very confusing, even with the instructions. Nice graphics!
Very charming! Most excellent graphics, very good music and cutscenes that made me (us actually) smile. =)
Nice work!
Is the graphics card and ATI or Nvidia? I've been having trouble with ati based cards. :/
On a new card NVidia supports opengl 3.x, a good place to check the status of your card is: http://www.realtech-vr.com/glview/download.html - there you can see what parts of opengl is supported.
But, i do feel bad that not everyone can play it and i will look into how much work it would be to make the renderer work on 2.1 hardware. The reason i went with 3.3 was because it was new and fun, but it's even less fun when people can't play my game. =)
And, if you'd like you can try again, i've rewritten it so i'll only need 3.1 support.
Shigor ->> if you compiled the source, try the highend version since it has different shaders. The lowend version should work but might not look as nice. =)
dogbomb >> no endgame, the plan was to make it unwinnable but i had to spend a lot of time rewriting shaders and trying to make it work towards the end. =)
Rudy >> try the lowend version. =)
Ah, super excellent! =)
Nice gameplay but too few levels to get the full potential. =)
This is my favourite so far. Very funny, and nice contrast between indie and ratrace =) Music was very apropriate.
To short, but sweet. Liked the physics when the guards(?) pushes you.
Very nice execution of a classic puzzler. Great work on the levels (i assume they take more work to create than to clear). =)
Nice graphics but (like my game) not much "game" (goals, levels etc). =)
A bit difficult to grasp but very clever when i got the hang of it. Good job!
Pretty intense =)
Nice! Got stuck on screenshot 2, but i blame only me. =)
I've added a .net xna version now. =)
More fun then one would think at first glance!
Good: Liked the bar on the left that displayed my best height, but it should have stayed there when pressing R. =)
Bad: Should have had a minimap in the corner so that i could target large asteroids more easely (or,at all).
Very fun, took a while to grasp but then i had to replay it a couple of times just because of the high fun-level. =)
As you probably already know this game is great! Liked the puzzles a lot, and the graphics and audio made it all come together very nicely. Good job!
Fun! Unfortunately i always got overrun by the reds :(
Took a while before i understood what to do, but when i got the hang of it it was pretty intense, to bad the insemination failed. :/
Nice! I love the killing tiny things bit, but i was frustrated that i could not kill the villagers :/
Still, nice! And nice graphics aswell =)
Holy hell, nice! =)
As i said on irc, a lot of "noooo..waiii..yeees!" - moments. Excellent controls aswell which makes it a nice experience =) Good work!
mikolalysenko>> sorry about that. I have built some other games using mono but this one relies heavely on Lua so it's a bit more work to port. :/
Arkazon>> The plan is that you collect resources, and then use them in the thing in the middle to get coins that you then use on the weapons store or in the health store. Also, you loose health when the men not waring hats take resources from you. =)
Favourite game so far. Like how you die in one shot, and the graphical deaths. =)
Knowing what it's like making a jam game because you missed the whole 48h ld i'd say it's a good effort, but you're really asking for a low score in the 'humor' category =)
Didnt manage to get very far, but i liked what i saw! =)
Good: RTS! To many platformers in LD =)
Bad: Graphics was a bit lacking (some good, then some bad) =)
nice! managed to kill another player and a couple of rat/scorpions =)
Good: MMO! And it works! =)
Bad: Hard to make out what's going on due to "intense" graphics and new glasses. *argh* =)
38625!
Nice work on the moving from asteroid to asteroid! =)
Good: Nice audio!
Bad: Wierd controls
Nice planets, but i didnt find the game?
Very nice indeed! The shrink thing combined with the beautiful graphics made it stand out above the rest of the platformers =)
Excellent!!
Good: nice graphics and an excellent idea!
Improve: hard to get into the game and to understand what to do. :/
Good: I really like your interpretation of the theme. Was great fun, fleshed out mechanics and a polished feel. Great work! =)
Improve: Less text, more goats. =)
Good: Graphics, bear, fire, sound and animations. Great! I hammered the keyboard so much i accidently shut down the computer. =)
Improve: Perhaps the ctrl key was a bad choice for special move since i somehow managed to shut down. *argh*
Good: Nice graphics! Fun gameplay aswell =)
Improve: perhaps some original music next time? =)
Good: Interesting idea and i likes the control scheme (even though it was somewhat buggy)
Improve: The endless loop =)
Good: Good gameplay and nice graphics.
Improve: sound would be nice and perhaps spawnpoints.:)

Improve: a tiiiny bit to hard =) Also no goat.
Good: Nice graphics and animations, the audio was good as well.
Improve: controls were a bit off.
Good: Great fun, nice physics and a nice idea =)
Improve: music would have been nice, also i felt that i had to spew to much bile, perpaps a lower coverage % to clear a level? =)
Good: Sound and the idea wsa great, even though it was a bit difficult to grasp at first (had a wtf moment there..).
Improve: goats were missing. =)
Good: Fun, I liked the old school feeling and the game felt polished.
Improve: There were no goats! :)
Good: I liked the idea of the game. Nice graphics.
Improve: Level #1 = to hard, and the text to small =)
Good: Nice graphics and a good interpretation of the theme!
Improve: I did not manage to hit any of the ships :/ Better controls perhaps?
Good: Great idea! Also liked the feet-shuffle animation of the beast =)
Bad: Seems like negative score is made positive in the end? =)
Good: Fun game, I liked that you could take money from more then one worker at the same time. This added a nice strategic twist =)
Improve: Graphics =)
Good: Fun!
Improve: Audio would be nice :)
Good: Excellent graphics and good gameplay. I (naturally) like that you can change the level. Also, awesome clouds!
Improve: I think there was some grahical glitches (as you stated).
Good: It was pretty innovative and I liked the grappling hook :)
Improve: sometimes the hook came off and I had to go back for it, also - depth sorting would be nice :)
Good: Good gameplay and if i was a kid would have played this endlessly =) (i was a kid in the 80's)
Improve: Another level would be cool, and perhaps slow grannies at first and then could speed up when their friends lost their bags? =)
Good: Nice graphics! Liked the water. =)
Improve: Hard to aim :/
Good: Different!
Improve: Hard to get into in the time one have to rate theese things (that is, if im not hooked the first minut i neeed to move on, sorry) =)
Good: Nice hockey implementation and nice to be able to play as the umpire =)
Improve: i never felt bad (theme?)
Excellent! =)
Good: Cats, the shop, the goat and a good feeling when flying around. Also the difficulty level is pretty steep =)
Bad: Sound =) Peow peow peoW!
Good: I liked the goats, the graphic was nice and for a few seconds it was fun :)
Improve: perhaps one or two more levels :)
Good: Excellent! Good audio, good graphics and an interesting story. I'd very much like to see a post-compo version with more everything. =)
Improve: The controls could use a bit of work.
Good: Niiice graphics and the gameplay is solid!
Improve: Did not find any goats. Endgame?
Good: nice graphics and an excellent take on "lives" with the graph. =)
Improve: the audio was a biiit much. *Argh*
Good: Excellent game mechanics and super-nice graphics!
Improve: It was actually a bit boring. To many legos! =)
Good: Loved the details of the moon
Improve: Perhaps more varied sound, and gameplay that's a bit easier to get into. =)
Good: Casle!
Improve: Mine!
:)
Good: fun, good audio (peow peow!) and nice graphics =)
Good: Liked the crowds!
Improve: a bit difficultto control your forces, more tactics! (and blood?)
Good: Nice graphics and I liked that you used goats.
Improve: gameplay, I found myself going left-right,-left-right... :)
Good: good idea! Fun with the glitches and stuff. Also liked when the "knights" started running away =)
Improve: Audio perhaps? =)
Good: I liked the graphics.
Improve: I did not get the idea of the game.
Pros: Very fun and easy to get into, liked it a lot!
Cons: Hard to control with a trackpad, but i guess that is to be expected. =)
(339 with trackpad..)
Fun idea! A little to slow in the begining. Good job!
Pros: Very nice graphics and good audio as well =)
Cons: Needs a replay button?
Nice digging game, I liked it a lot but I was not very good at it :)
Nice and simple!
Pros: Nice implementation of asteroids =)
Cons: The sound *argh*
When figured out how to shoot it went from really hard to fun. :)
Nice idea with mirror reflection, the controls maybe need some work. :)
fun game to play, a bit hard to control! :)
Got stuck on level 4 not sure if I'm missing something or I just can't click that quickly :)
Nice, lovely ending! Liked the graphics!
Pros: Very nice graphics! Pretty good feel to the physics as well. =)
Cons: No blood!
Pros: Beautiful graphics! The ship was very easy to control.
Cons: Not really on theme, but the theme sucked a bit so.. And the start game button could have used some love =)
Nice idea to edit the level you are playing. The controls need a bit work.
nice game! A little too hard, I crashed a lot :)
Pros: Nice graphics and excellent music (sounded like a thumbjam song). The mood was there as well. =)
Cons: It was hard to know what to do, i got the first spell but then i got stuck. Followed the path to the east as well but nothing (perhaps i need to use the spell on.. *brb*
Fun and very hard :)
Pros: Liked the graphics! (beeing old helps) =)
Cons: What was the point of the game? A bit unfinished?
Pros: Nice idea and it was pretty fun to play. =)
Cons: An end screen would have been good and some instructions wouldnt have hurt it one bit. =)
Pros: I very much liked the concept of drawing paths, very much liked the game as well even though it was short.
Cons: Could have used a few levels
All in all a very nice entry that i would play a lot more if it were more fleshed out.
Pros: Very nice game! Great idea and a solid implementation. =)
Cons: Nothing, good job!
Pros: Fun game mechanics loading up fireballs with space!
Cons: Hard to aim horizontally
Pros: Nice graphics!
Cons:
Awesome!!! really good job!
Pros: Nice graphics and solid controls. The feel of the physics was spot on!
Cons: Got a bit repetetive
Pros: Very tricky levels that seemed to have some thought put into them =)
Cons: More friction!
drkrunk: i embedded it with js so i think it should be working now?
realoading also seems to help =)
Pros: Nice idea and the graphics was very "moody". =)
Cons: Flawed cut-detection (as you probably know) and music would have added a lot to the mood.
All in all a fun game where better hit detection on the cutting would have made it even better. Would very much like to see an ios/android imlementation since this game is begging for some touch-love. =)
Pros: Nice fov-implementation =)
Cons: Graphics was a bit lacking
Pros: Solid gameplay and nice graphics! (as always)
Cons: Nothing much, felt like sword of fargoal and that game i hate. *Argh* =)
Very fun, little har to control but good that you did'nt have to start over every time you died :)
Fun game! Liked the music a lot! Could have played it all night long. Good Job!
Pros: Very nice graphics and i love the blood-splatter! Story-thing was good as well =)
Cons: Did not like the control scheme with space as jump instead of w.
Pros: Very moody and unlike anything i've seen so far. Liked the mechanics and the story as well. =)
Cons: The ball seemed to be spinning in the wrong direction when the gravity is flipped. *argh*
Great game! Nice graphics and levels was excellent, fun with the pages! good job.
Nice, but the story ended too fast :) Nice Graphics!
Pros: Insane! Great work using free tools to create something like this in the amount of time we had. Just awesome =)
Cons: Hard to control, was bouncing all around the place and had no idea why.
Pros: Nice moody feeling, good music and good graphics (and animations)!
Cons: A bit low fps? (have a computer that should be able to handle it)
Pros: Nice graphics and a nice idea!
Cons: A bit wide, but that's perhaps the point? It would also have been nice with a windows build (if possible)
Pros: The laser-eye-gun-thing, excellent!
Cons: Nothing really, perhaps something so do?
In the beginning i got the gun and then walked around thinking "oh, very minimalistic, but no graphics... annoying".. Then when i was aiming to close the windows i shot a red beam by accident. =)
Thanks a bunch for all the comments! I'm quite happy to see that the game is not as impossible as I thought. ;-)
Excellent idea! The main problem is that i almost forgot to comment on your entry since i got lost commenting others. Good work!
Pros: Beautiful graphics, and excellent gameplay
Cons: None!
Pros: Very innovative!
Cons: A bit to easy, word and digit matching was always a success.
Pros: Very nice graphics!
Cons: A bit difficult, but as others have said it's not obvious what can be touched and what kills you.
Pros: Excellent graphics, good story and very fun to play!
Cons: A bit.. small? =)
The good: Very fun! This would make a fun vr game =)
The bad: Nothing, liked everything. The music when ingame was a bit bland, and i would have liked it to be more like the intro music.
Pros: Very nice graphics and good audio! And once i got the hang of it it was quite fun. =)
Cons: A bit confusing
Pros: Lander games are always fun!
Cons: Quite hard to control, should be a bit more intuitive.
Pros: It has a very nice feel to it, nice graphics and interesting bosses. =)
Cons: It's hard as f**k! =)
whilefun: yes, the shooting in the beginning is intentional and is meant to be the spark that starts the fire. =)
Pros: Excellent story!
Cons: None actually, i really enjoyed this one. =)
Pros: Felt like "The sentinel" on the Atari ST!
Cons: A bit hard to control, and a bit confusing.
Pros: Nice graphics and very meditative. =)
Cons: None!
Pros: I really liked the graphics and the game has a really nice feel to it, a bit meditative even.
Cons: Was hard to see if i made any progress
The good: Excellent everything! Would really like to see this expanded further. =)
The bad: Nothing, enjoyed everything.
The good: Nice raycasting engine (i think)
The bad: Controls were lacking, hard time steering.
The good: Nice graphics and pretty fun to play.
The bad: Not bad, but i think that it would benefit with a more physics-feel. =)
Pro: Got a very nice platformer feel to it, not like those horrible box2d games =)
Cons: The graphics are lacking a bit, but you probably know that.
Pros: Very nice simulation, like an antfarm but with mexicans. I also enjoyed the "I'm going to work" things.
Cons: The graphics could need some work =)
The good: Very nice idea and nice graphics!
The bad: The menu could be improved
All in all, great work!
Good: Very interesting concept combined with an awesome mechanic!
Bad: Graphics could be improved, and no audio?
Ah, this game made me happy. The mechanics worked pretty well, kind of hard to get them to line up at times. The best thing was the feel of pushing enemies around, the powerups were good as well. Great job!
Nice entry, I like these games that get a bit addictive. good job!
A very nice idea implemented very well. Nice graphics and the game felt very well crafted. Good work!
Fun game! I liked it, I guess if the cards did something it would have added some complexity to it. but it was quite relaxing as it was. Good job!
Nice little game! On my first try I went down in the red room, and that was a bad Idea :-)it was really hard down there. Next try it went better. The controls are a bit sensitive, but good job on finishing the game.
Wow! great job on this game! it was lots of fun, really nice graphics as well. It was quite easy until like everybody start shooting at you. But really fun! thanks! good job!
Nicely done! There has been quite a lot of card-based games but this is probably my favourite. Upgrades worked well and the lookahead system when moving worked as well. Good job!
Nicely done, music was nice and put you (me) in the mood for sneaking. Good work!
Fun game! Nice graphics and good work with the sound as well. Fun and humorous game! I enjoyed it very much. Good job!
I like the idea of the game, but it was a bit hard to have control over what you are doing and sometimes I didn't really know what I was supposed to do. I really like the idea of the game though. :-)
Ah, this is great! A really nice touch with the pacman beat. Finding the first enemy was quite exciting and as a surprise to exactly no one i messed up. =)
Good work!
Best music in the compo, even catchier than all the music rythm games! Nice graphics and intense gameplay made the game good, the death animation made it great. Good work!
WOW! nice entry! I really enjoyed this game! It was challenging and had a really nice touch to it. excellent work!
This was really hard. Really nice graphics though! :)
Ah this was a nice one! Nice gameplay and all, but the thing that really stood out was how well you fed the player (me) with instructions. I've been playing a bunch of games that just drops you into hell without any instructions so this was nice. Good work!
Wow! I love the concept! the controls was a bit tricky but I really really like this one! Good job!
Cool game! I find it a bit to easy, but the sound effects compensated for that :-), they really made me laugh out loud while palying. Great job!
this was actually really funny, I spent too much time playing it :) really nice job on the graphics as well, good job!
Ah this looked and played great. A good sense of humor as well made the game really enjoyable. Good work!
very cool idea. I liked as mentioned earlier that CAPS had a different output. It was a bit tricky to see the words, blue text on black bg is rarely a good choice :-). but overall good job!
Oh, this was an interesting game, 3D text adventure :-) I tried to follow the stories, but I think I failed greatly. :-) I loved the idea though. good job!
Love the concept, it was a bit too hard? (for me anyway) nice graphics though! Good job on finishing the game!
First! Was going through the pico-8 list and found this one. The graphics are nice, but are the levels generated and how? Interesting work, hopefully you'll have more time during the next jam. =)
pros: I liked the 2D into 1D perspective, I really appreciated the tab function in the end to get the hang of it though. :)
cons: I bit too mutch for my brain to handle as well,
Good job!
It seems that I only have to typing speeds, too slow and too fast. Still, I really enjoyed the game and the music was nice. Good work!
Nice graphics and the mechanics were spot on, good work! (Also, interesting pico-8 work on twitter)
I actually liked this one, I spent quite some time despite that the controls felt a bit weird. Really interesting concept. I would like see more of this. Good job!
I lover match 3 games so this was a game for me :-) , nice use of the theme as well. good job!
Nice idea for a game. I actually played it for quite a while, having fun. thanks! Well done!
Love the graphics!
This was a really, really great idea for a game, love the consept, nice graphics, the sound sets the mood. It gets a bit hard pretty fast and I ended up just pushing all the buttons in panic.
Great consept. Good Job!
pros: Really nice graphics, it's a puzzle game :-) love them!
cons: I didn't get past the first level.
Well done!
Cool concept. I did like the "one-letter-cheat" instead of typing the whole words, it was quite useful :-) It was fun!
I had I bit difficulty with the controlls but overall I like the idea very much. And the tutorial in the beginning was an excellent example of how it should be done. Good work!
pros: The mechanics are very well implemented! As someonne mentioned above - this would be a nice ipad-couch-game
cons: A bit slow for my taste, but that might just be the ld fatigue =)
All in all, good work!
pros: I really liked the environment and the core mechanics. I've done a few VR games and instantly started to think how this could be implemented.
cons: The mouse movement was a bit sensitive, and the game froze(?) just asI was about to poke the green dude
All in all, good work!
I really like TD games, and I think this was an really interesting idea. I had difficulties handling the car, it often ended up upside down or backwards into the wall. But great idea. Good job.
Nice little game, I like the idea, I wish there was something more to it. Pretty fast there was not so much more to do, just put more drinks into the houses. so I guess I would have liked if there was something that increased the difficulty level. Overall I think you got something pretty addictive going on here. Good Job!
This is my favourite entry so far. Very well implemented - the bouncy feeling is spot on which makes it very enjoyable to play. Good (great) work!
Great idea of a game! Really nice looking as well, I had quite fun! Good job!
wow! this was so mutch fun! nice work!
Ah, the graphics does not do this little gem justice. A great idea, and I think (as someone already mentioned) that it would be an exellent game for kids. Good work!
Nice little game, I like the concept very much, It was I bit hard, or I was really bad at it. :-) I love the graphics! good job!
Very good level design, only thing that's lacking is the controls that felt a bit out there. Really enjoyed this one!
yey! this was great! I felt that this actually happens to me all the time, such stress! great work on good game!
Interesting game:-) it took quite some time to get use to the controls. I liked the mood and the atmosphere in the game. I often ended up in the woods against a tree. God job on finishing the game!
Ohh this was really difficult. I was so bad at this, interesting idea though. I really like TD games and I like your take on it.
Very well implemented and it feels very fleshed out. The graphics are (as everyone has said) excellent! It would be interesting to know how the TIC-80 compare to pico-8 (if you've used it). I like pico-8 but i also like more things to make game in. =)
Ah, nice game! Very enjoyable to play and the idea is great. What would make it even better is probably mouse control, that would (atleast for me) make the game even better. Good work!
Liked the game, especiellay when i went back to read the instructions after noticing the 0 flaps. Liked it! =)
Easy controlled game, I like it! wow! more games with only one control. Nice work with the graphics. well done!
Ah this was great. I had to focus on the music part and the boat-agains-rocks-sound was really painful (in a good way). Good work! Oh, almost forgot. Nice water!
Nice idea and the controls worked well (was afraid of another bind-bending control system). Good work!
Nice little game, i liked that you had to time your moves :-), a bit hard though. Nice graphics, and sound! Good Job!
This was interesting. It was quite hard and a bit stressful :-). But the audio was great and felt balanced with the game movements. Good job!
Nice little game! I had fun playing it, had to go back and read the instructions but then I managed quite well :) I tink you got something going here, I have to think of my endurance at the same time that I wish to KILL all the rats. Good job!
Good game, even if I lack the simultaneous capacity to master this game I had quite fun. I like the simplicity of it. Good work!
pros: excellent graphics and solid gameplay! Also enjoyed the humor =)
cons: nothing that i can think of
All in all, one of the best entries I've played (so far). =)
I like the idea and enjoyed this a lot more than other more polished entries. Good work and if you give it another go you'll be amazed on how much better you'll get betweem each jam. =)
@Call_me_Nutty Thanks for the long review and for noticing the particles. =) The difficulty level is an interesting problem, I did not want to make it to hard for someone who had never played the game so I settled on the first 30 levels being easy, and then introduce harder levels. Now that you mention it 30 was a bit steep, and 5-10 easy levels would probably be a better idea.
@mrspeaker agree on the one more mechanic thing. I had a lot of time to spare (like 9 hours) but I was a bit to tired to think of anything more to add. =)
@candlesan yes, everything was random so sometimes things did not really line up
@EkkoEkko He's a lost crusader. If you come close to him he'll join your crusade. =)
@LemonBalmGames Thanks, glad you liked it! =)
@Alex13 Yeah i was thinking about that, but i did not really want to limit digging (since it feels kind of nice). I'm thinking (if i get around to it) of adding treasures and traps to challenge the player, that might do the trick. =)

Interesting take on a game, i liked it, but I got really stressed (I haven't decided if I think it's good or bad :-)) when the timer started to count down.
The mechanics are there but the game could be a bit more balanced. Good work on making a game! (my first ld entry did not even have a menu..)
This was a really interesting game and concept, I had I hard time understanding what I was supposed to do and when I finally understood I was really bad at saving my little helpers. :-) but I really liked the concept, the graphics and the mood. Good job!
Very well written, and the back and forth between the games worked very well. This made me happy - good work!
Ah, this was quite fun - and even though my typing skills are a bit lacking i really enjoyed it. Good work!
Fun game, I ended upp moving my cat around/away like a crazy person/cat :-) I ended up with so many bombs and canons and a bomb boss!? then I got back and read what I was suposed to do, and then it just got to mutch for me to handle. :-)
But overall good job! I had fun!
I love the graphics, but the game was a bit hard to control. It very much had that 80's feel as well as the "what is this, how do i play it!?!" feeling that was so common back in the day. Everything had a nice feel to it. =)
Cool to see another pico-8 game in the compo. Nice use of colors and an excellent vhs(?) effect, the gameplay was solid as well. Good work!

Interesting game. the music is definitely the best in this entry. I was really bad at this. But funny dialog and great sounds.
This was actually quite fun after I gave it a second chance and ended up spending a lot of time playing it. wanted to unlock and find everything. Good job!
Very nice graphics! The game was a bit slow at first, but still enjoyable =)
I really liked it, you should rate a few more games to get some exposure so that more people will play this (since you need 20 ratings). The quiz-aspect worked very well and answering while dodging rocks was enjoyable as well. Also, nice starfield!
