Great Compo Entry man!
Hi @zachary-shah ! Fun, interesting and as far as I can tell, quite unique game :) The instruction manual looks slick at the beginning and I read it but still wasn't quite sure on the mechanics I guess (didn't really get that I had to stand on the pads to charge them but I think that was my bad :) For the game itself, it looks good, plays well, but maybe some additional feedback to the player for a pad charged or indicators of what is going on would be good. The final level seems nearly impossible lol (at least for me!). EDIT: Should add that I tried only one character, I assume all are different and kudos for that too!
@unimaginable-code-studios great job :) I got stuck in an infinite death loop at the start of level 3 (damn flying octopuses!), a pause menu to exit to main menu would be a great addition later (no worries though, not many games had that!). Really interesting 2d action game honestly... I love the sword chucking with zero gravity :) In the time frame and with the limitations, you did a fantastic job overall. Next stage would be work on some player feedback for damage/death and maybe some running animation for the hero. The platforms behave a bit strange too, maybe by design though :)
Hi @midnightmist , same issue as @cliff-lee-cl not being able to progress... oh didn't find the plank though lol! Nice little game, and big props to your sister indeed, that's some beautiful hand drawn scenery and characters. Just some thoughts: Animation on the main character could have done with a little more motion on movement I find (not a big deal) and the tongue kinda moves strangely (not attached to the parent's y position it seems? Restart froze the game for me both times I did use it (though I played a few times anyway!), maybe not setting time.timescale back (I had that bug too on pause menu restart!).
Interesting choices and game :) I don't know who Neil is but I will google that lol :)
Couldn't quite win the game, but interesting and unique for sure :) Yep some in game instructions like people said might be good as you start (even how to start the game!).
Awesome little action game! :) I enjoyed playing, thank you for sharing! Not much in the way of feedback, although I found I got a little lost at times :)
@sotsnut @jordgubben Very interesting interactive experience :) Took your advice and let it run while I worked on some course material (fortunately I do enjoy the sound of fire crackling, nicely done there!). Had some people pass and some stay, but mostly I just let it go and interacted with the fire now and then :) Nice little experience, thank you :)
Decent little game, took me a sec to figure it out but in time to get past the first stage :) Good job :)
Cool game, great atmosphere, as others said, definitely has Limbo vibes :) Good use of tools too! Well done! I particularly liked that I thought I was safe having cleverly given myself a big lead and then... nope :) haha :)
@mlho7 Cute game! Very original honestly, don't think I've seen anything like it. Cheh! I didn't quite understand the timing or if I was supposed to hit the dude, the buzzer, a specific part of the dude at first until I got a hit so maybe that could be clarified given the tight timing :) Also was trying to watch his great speeches so missed some opportunities lol.
Hey @coolguy6316 , I quite liked your little platformer, and love the assets (Kenny Assets!). These are the same ones I'm using in a little game called Sam Jones Treasure Hunter :) I think the only feedback I have is that the water by default is difficult (maybe I have old man eyes) to see haha but managed to finish it pretty fast after two water deaths :) Great entry! @bigbadollie , SamJones!
Interesting, but not sure I quite get it, I recruited like 5 ppl in a row and in the next scene they said they're all leaving and it seems to freeze? O_o Might be missing something key hehe :)
Very cute little game! :) Saw it on stream and decided I had to try it! Good music choices, fits the theme, great interface, good controls (sure it's hard on keyboard but you say it up front lol). Could easily be an app store game, really great job in the tight constraints of LD!
Great work! @drury saw this in ElysiaGriffin's twitch feed and had to try. Good work all around guys, no specific recommendations good LD entry! :) I love the end!
Pretty simple and fun little game! I'm pretty terrible, but got to 6 rallies lol :) Well done :)
Hi there! I love the original art and that you shared some design thoughts! :) I'm not 100% sure i get the mechanics though. My flower grew, I planted 3 little ones, but what happens next? Is there a fail mechanic?
Hi there NestGuard team! I'm not able to test this, but as it shows first on my Smart list I really wanted to pop in and say props for doing a VR game! We need more good VR content out there :) I can already tell this sticks to the theme well, and will be fairly innovative, hopefully you get enough people with the required hardware rating it!
Great idea, great little game, little to say other than it would be cool if there was some indicator of what's wrong because running to the different areas to find the issue is not as fun ;) Maybe the queues could be different sounds (pretty obvious when the music stops for example). Maybe I missed a proper queue to distinguish the two cleaning scenes :) Either way, I loved it overall! Only ever got my party to 450 :)
Well done @theqiwiboy for your first entry! :) WebGL can be tricky (I had some issues with mine earlier!). Some great ideas already shared by others for improvement, maybe later on you can allow the sword to move the full range and have the farmer randomly move around and plant things too :) Neat idea!
@quade-zaban and team, great work, cute game and good run on the fire/keep it alive theme :) Got to a point with three hanging things that I presume require some skills to all light that I don't quite have lol, but good variety in puzzles (design) cute graphics, solid sound, great little game :)
@banksho Hi there, interesting wave based shooter :) Personally I found it pretty hard lol... Reload times felt long to the point where I just couldn't prevent zombies from reaching the damsel. Agree with @honey-pony about the shop pause, I think that would help the pacing a bit and noticed the same bug on restart :)
@fat-cat I love the approach and the theme, and more importantly my girflriend adores it though she did ask @ifidamas 's question about dogs :) It actually seems fairly well balanced to be honest, though having enough content in a Sim game can be tough in this tight a time frame!
Hi @stanlkm ! Great first entry! It gives me a bit of a Star Control Vibe :) Maybe to build on @kaijiro 's observations, Earth probably shouldn't produce Greens if you want a game with a bit more urgency (it also fits your intro and concept). Earth should probably be stripping Greens and maybe that even accelerates over time and can be countered with tech investments. I think the above alone would probably make it feel more like a game! Couple of other questions: Is there anything beyond transferring greens or what would you plan if you had more development time? Currently, is there a reason to have HP? (I didn't see anything that would damage me)
In general, I quite liked it and like i said maybe it's the planets and top down but I get a star control vibe hehe (Nostalgia!).
Beautiful artwork, well organized thoughts and a lot of love went into this project :) Great submission, good fun, good clicker (even though these aren't usually my jam!). The upgrades were well planned and thought out though I didn't catch why my temple stopped doing damage over time (probably that big rock I added! :)).
Hi there! It's a cute little game but it's extremely fast! I'm not sure if I'm just terrible though :) Simple concept, decently executed, just needs the pace slowed down a bit at the very least :)
Pretty solid little game, great first entry, no need to apologize :)
Really solid little game! I don't think I have any suggestions, definitely didn't encounter any bugs, and clearly if you did want to expand on the experience you already have the right path laid out for you :) Great work all around!
The idea is awesome, the setup is great too, great work for a short period of time :) There might be a slightly better indication of what wood/temperature ratio might be needed to not freeze in the morning as that's probably the worst way to wake up! (IRL and in game!), you could have some sort of book with notes in it to keep in the theme :)
It's a cute game! The graphics are interesting and the theme is awesome (I love my cat haha). I'm not really sure what the bed/bath/cushion is for lol, but then again I kept getting my cat stolen :( Great job!
@tarcisiotm I like it! Exactly what I thought it would be when I saw the icon :) Very simple, elegantly designed, I was worried there might not be an "END" and then there was! Looks like a cherry blossom tree from Synty Samurai :)
@codechomper Cute game, not too clear on the proper methodology to milk cows or load the truck though I figured it out by trial and error! - Would be nice additions: brief explanation or how to, indicator for what's on the truck rather than the negative notation to required items.
Great work :)
Hi @cocosar07 ! Feedback probably similar to others here:
- I enjoyed the game overall! Pretty cute, I like the angry looking bees/wasps/flying baddies! - Sound would add a bit more depth. You could get away with: fire crackle, guy yelping, flash sound, buzzing, ice. - Score would be a nice addition for some overall goal or persistence but more of a nice to have! - Great work! :)
haha nice victory message :) Sorta fun idler, I like it well done :)
Pretty good! Interesting but not too sure how the wood and sheep meters work, I had both but wood seemed empty a lot of the time lol, not sure if matching them reduces it or what not :) Also fire streaks can be rough (4 fire tiles in a row!? hehe).
Hi @zacharia , the game built fine for me in Unity. I did import it to 2019.2.21f , maybe that made a difference? Built for Windows worked fine. Played it in the editor a bit, and the only issue I see is some wood has no color (should that go nowhere?). Seems pretty straightforward otherwise, though it's a large project!
Well done entry for this game jam! :) Right mix of mood, atmosphere and length here! Future ideas for simple expansion: add extraction point to get to with an aggressive holding off of shadow monster and local fauna (didn't find a use for the laser? Can you shoot the shadow thing?).
I had to try this when I saw the assets used! Love Synty's stuff, and you can see more of it on our game (we used the Dungeon Pack, this would be the Town Pack).
Great little concept, pretty unique, good interactions, love the idea of quests to get batteries. Missing a few colliders and a pause menu and I didn't see an overall score or anything? (length of time you gave your bro to play?). Honestly though, pretty darn good imo :)
A decent little platformer with a whiff of Corona :) It lacks a bit of depth to be completely honest! Something persistent like a score would be a nice little addition so there is something to work towards :)
Haha great voice over work, a bit dark but funny! Didn't realize I had to reboot on a blue screen but then thought "duh" lol :) Good job guys!
Hi there! Super cute style and I love the theme (Tamagotchi styles!), definitely something we considered :) I understand how it should work I think but the happiness tanks fast and I don't quite get playing (Granted I suck at playing with our cat!). I tried both one and two balls, hitting him and not hitting him as well as a room of balls. ballmadness.png
Hey, I don't want to rate the content since there isn't anything playable, however don't feel bad at all! One of the biggest and easiest traps to fall in is overextending the scope of your game and missing your targets. AAA studios fail on that every day, not to mention countless indie devs :) If it's your passion, keep trying, you got this next time!
lol apparently my motor skills aren't up to par, what even happened here!?: brewingwhaaaat.png
Honestly it's cool it reminds me of a lot of VR games where you have to dextrously handle things (at which I also usually fail miserably! I was not cut out to be a surgeon). While I didn't get to really make a drink I did manage to lose many things flinging them around the room :)
Good work, would be cool to see it in VR and with more features :)
Interesting concept, will come back to it in a bit when maybe there are lobbies or players! :) The music is sort of fitting! I like the twist on the classic Battleship of being able to move ships but it seems like it might be Battleship other than that?
341 seconds, many points, not enough coffee :) Sounds like my day haha. Well done. I actually quite like the idea and implementation. There might be some notion of making it to day end and the next day being harder but that's just another layer on top for later, not sure if there is currently an end game, seems like it could go on forever! If you continue working on it, some variety of task descriptions and solutions could be cool too, I saw a few problems and a few solutions, maybe there is more I didn't see :)
I love this haha. As someone who used to repeatedly say "Hello, Georgie, would you like a balloon?" for months after watching the movie, this is priceless lol :) The nitty gritty: Everything is quite well done! I like the music, it's super appropriate, the sound fx are a little basic but it's ok it's retro look fits imo. The twist on the theme is ridiculously good (I'd give you 6 there if I could lol). Gameplay is pretty self explanatory and doesn't need a lot more intro but for some reason I wasn't aware my paths were switching off the first time through, figured it out later.
Anyway, great job with this, and best of luck :)
Honestly I love the look, simple, elegant and detailed like you would expect a clean ship to look :) There should probably be a bit more explanation since there is a degree of complexity here. I'm not 100% sure but this felt like a sim/builder type game where I had resources, research, balanced services that consume resources (I assume) and things to build. I saw the direct impact of thrusters was what I expected but beyond that I wasn't too sure what would do what :) Great looking game though and likely the math working behind the scenes is well tuned too, just wish I knew more about how to approach it!
Beautifully drawn, interesting take on the theme. A choose your own adventure with board game type elements :)
Interesting, didn't quite get it in the first 5 minutes though and a bit hard to read the font (maybe it's my old eyes or the 4k:) )
Pretty fun little game :) Very simple, but maybe something persistent would make it a bit more enjoyable :) Good job!

Très drôle comme jeu, je l'ai beaucoup aimé! Et comme l'a dit @mrbamboo, semblable à la nôtre! I think now I've seen the only person who drinks more coffee than I do lol :)
Singularity Protocol by CookieRA 2022-10-05T16:59:22Z ♥ 2
Wow, this is a really great game! :) Kudos for getting this done. Graphics, sound, gameplay everything comes together really nice for fast and furious experiences. Nicely done!
Maze Runner by HagamosVideojuegos 2022-10-05T15:39:07Z ♥ 3
I liked it, I was sort of trying to figure out what was happening the first time and somehow managed to glitch and fall through the world near a door hehe. But second playthrough I managed to get to the end... I like the cause of the issue lol :) There might be an issue pausing before hitting start with the mouse cursor disappearing I managed to work around it but it is probably a cursor focus or hide call where it's not expected (pausing before starting). Good fun, and a solid entry! :)
Ruins by frax 2022-10-05T15:24:39Z ♥ 1
Liked the style and the mechanics seem super cool but I can't get past the very first segment lol :) Tried a few methods but probably missing something! :)
THE WORLD NEEDS BISCUITS! by PureImprov 2022-10-05T04:51:50Z ♥ 1
lol, definitely original can't say I've ever seen anything like it! :) I had some issues grabbing biscuits after a bit but that might be my age and eyes rather than anything in the game lol :)
Someware by someoneman 2022-10-05T02:55:03Z ♥ 0
haha definitely fit the theme :) Some pretty straight forward mini games. I'm glad I gave it a second go to see there were more than 4 too hehe :)
Bearly Fishing by SakuH 2022-10-05T01:00:52Z ♥ 1
Super original and a lot of fun lol :) I'm not a very good grappling fish riding bear evidently but everything comes together quite well in this game :)
Minute Monet by Christina Salem 2022-10-05T00:53:11Z ♥ 2
Great idea and well executed! :) My fiancé liked it though she didn't like being limited to 10 seconds haha :) This was her creation: masterpiece.png
Motor Dime by Ale 2022-10-05T00:46:32Z ♥ 1
I was so very terrible at this but it's a great game... I already have trouble with driving games, throw in another thing to watch and ... over 1 minute laps lol :)
Super Auto Crusaders by Savolae 2022-10-05T00:36:01Z ♥ 3
Loved this one! :) I had a lot of fun playing it though I could never quite get 5 done haha :)
Fall Girl by civmaniac 2022-10-05T00:24:34Z ♥ 2
Fun little game, and cute graphics! I really hope the fatality rate of window washers is not that bad! Oh and I love the game name... simple yet adds to the cuteness somehow :)
It's Snake, But Every 10 Seconds The Food Turns Into Walls by Aristurtle 2022-10-05T00:20:25Z ♥ 2
A basic idea and a retro game turned into something new for the theme of the jam :) Well done, I quite enjoyed it and you might not have made the music but it fit quite well :)
Sonar by erikiene 2022-10-04T20:35:44Z ♥ 4
A lot of fun, as others have mentioned a smoother transition on end (failure or success) would be great (as of now it just exits!) :). Can't rate maybe because a team mate did or maybe it missed the deadline? Not sure.
Medieval Politics by sillyman987 2022-10-04T20:08:37Z ♥ 0
Unfortunately I kept getting the NaN issue but played enough to get the gist :) Cute game, lots of fast clicking haha.
Resource: Remixed by Phillip Scott 2022-10-04T16:33:33Z ♥ 0
Very pretty game though there doesn't really seem to be any real danger. Very chill, pretty and relaxing :)
Imminent by T90. 2022-10-04T14:29:54Z ♥ 6
Intense and of course relevant, and made me realize I'm a "doomscroller" some days :) Well done, I wasn't very good at it but pretty clear how it works and the narrative taking place makes it incredibly intense. Good work and for sure chopped features are all part of really short timelines! But great work with the resources at hand :) Would be cool to be able to skip the intro for future play throughs (just a nice to have!).
Treasure Tactics by Martta 2022-10-04T14:16:20Z ♥ 2
Hey great idea, good execution and a fun little game! Like @human-writes-code gave me a bit of a sid meier's pirates vibe (good thing!) although I definitely got the firing and evading... won the game on the second try :)
Coffee Rush by Trusty 2022-10-04T02:29:51Z ♥ 2
Great job on the custom assets :) A nice, cute little barista game, not sure I expected to see one here but it's very nice, relaxing and sweet :)
Tiledom by Austin 2022-10-04T02:06:45Z ♥ 2
Not bad :) Is the path to victory just fast placement? The way the taxes goes up seems fast and linear?
Deep Down There by juna8001 2022-10-04T01:31:47Z ♥ 2
Really great idea and well executed :) Even the how to play menus are very well put together. Great work all around. I definitely got smoked the first game before I figured things out...
Elemental Shrine by Correia de Brito 2022-10-04T00:53:15Z ♥ 3
It's cute :) I think having the bullets that hit enemies make an effect would help in the first round or so to know that they did something. How to play menu seems broken I'd recommend removing it if it's an axed feature :)
Purple Legion by Astoeth 2022-10-04T00:35:16Z ♥ 2
I like it quite a bit! :) Great take on the theme, easy to understand and play but difficult for an old guy like me to master haha :)

Hey there! :) I got to your itch page but the link is incorrect... You have an extra undrescore character on the link here (it should be https://jessfromonline.itch.io/hack-the-planet)

Really well presented game :) I quite liked it :)

Pretty fun but I don't see any relation to the theme unfortunately :(
Chicken Produced All (Clicker game) by Wendy222 2022-10-03T23:40:21Z ♥ 1
Pretty cute and unexpected :) I got to 10 I think :)
