Orbits by tuism 2017-12-12T11:08:17Z

Great job!! Very simplistic game, so funny though! But it's very easy to get hit with a few number of moons :(

Permanence by stevenjmiller 2017-12-12T11:29:17Z

I really like the innovative mechanic! Very well designed puzzles and great difficulty curve! First puzzles may seem a little bit hard to solve, though.

Charge Arena by PurpleAlien 2017-12-04T14:30:25Z

@noxbuds Thanks! I'm happy you liked the game. Controls will be polished in a future, as so many thinks will too.

Charge Arena by PurpleAlien 2017-12-05T22:45:14Z

@elzach @fashionbatman thanks for the feedback! I'll keep working on the game to improve it as much as possible! :D

Charge Arena by PurpleAlien 2017-12-06T00:53:31Z

Charge Arena by PurpleAlien 2017-12-10T11:47:09Z

@shess thanks a lot!! I'm so happy you liked the game :D Btw, thanks for the feedback also, quite useful info!

Health Hazard by PeculiarCarrot 2017-12-05T22:58:14Z

Very solid game, so fun to play! Square... I mean character control feels so nice :grin: Also, nice difficulty curve, getting so hard once the player catches the goal of the came. In general, great job! :D

Jazzy Beats by Moski 2017-12-12T11:16:37Z

JUST AWESOME. Honestly, no words for this. Outstanding job, guys!

SUPER COP HERO by Finlal 2017-12-05T23:06:16Z

Great art! Too difficult at the beginning of the game, but quite solid and fun!

Be Yourself by Noa Calice 2017-12-05T23:09:14Z

Great work!! Quite innovative concept too ;D

Cardhoard by HacksawUnit 2017-12-05T23:14:50Z

Awsome job! Very well polished and quite solid game. Congrats :D

GREEDY COCO! by Maroovan 2017-12-04T13:06:56Z

This game is awsome!! I really love it and had a good time playing :D Also, sound is so damn cool!

Descending by khofez 2021-04-26T10:48:26Z

Same thing as @fabighindaru D:

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-25T23:42:08Z

@kro Thanks a lot! I'm glad you liked it :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-26T08:04:20Z

@dante2001 Yeah, I spent a good bunch of hours polishing. Thanks for your comment! :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-26T11:17:26Z

@initialposition I'm glad you liked the game! Yep, the level is all procedurally generated. I'm using very simple perlin noise plus a couple of basic "relaxation" passes to ensure there's a clear path most of the times. It's by far the feature that took me the longest to develop, I'm pretty proud of it, though :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-26T11:18:56Z

@haydads Thanks :D I'm afraid the distinction between destroyable and non-destroyable blocks is more my fault rather than yours... Thanks for the feedback!

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-26T11:20:05Z

@alexjdg Thanks a lot! I made all the graphics, but the music is not mine! Credits for the "soundtrack" go to CodeManu, you have a link to his Twitter account on the description :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-26T11:24:27Z

@yamzho Thanks! I'm happy you noticed the polish. Thanks for playing :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-28T15:30:30Z

@hippolytea thanks! Really appreciate you noticed it :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-29T13:05:28Z

@animatrix1490 Thanks a lot :D Since my art skills tend to zero, I put a lot of effort on juice and game feel. Thanks for noticing!

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-29T15:24:59Z

@krexor Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it :)

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-30T18:33:07Z

@bigtvz Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to make a bigger version of the game, with a more polished sense of progression... but that will be somewhere in the future xD

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-30T18:33:33Z

@testudor Thanks for the feedback! I really need to fix keyboard support. Also, thanks for pointing up the enemy collisions issue!

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-30T18:35:17Z

@shieldssounds I'm glad you noticed! Thanks :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-04-30T18:36:43Z

@taikinaaa Thanks! TNT was the very last feature to get in the game, I'm happy I got it done in time :) Thanks for the kind words!

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-05-05T12:37:00Z

@necdilzor Damn, that breaks my record D: Thanks for playing!

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-05-05T12:40:24Z

@evn Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make any Mac or Linux port...

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-05-10T14:38:52Z

@sevit Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it :D

ROM DIGGER by PurpleAlien 2021-05-10T14:41:00Z

@superpokeunicorn Thanks a lot for your comment! I'm taking notes on the feedback, I'll definitely be applying it to a future extended version of the game. Thanks for playing :D

Holey Hell by managore 2021-04-28T13:50:51Z

I love the art style. Super nice looking game, congratz!

Nuclear blaze by deepnight 2021-04-29T15:35:50Z

Excellent game feel! It's super satisfying to spray water around :D

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-28T13:49:32Z

Very cool mechanic! Some string "getting over it" flashbacks xD

God's Arteries by Gunturtle 2021-04-26T11:08:56Z

Very cool graphics! Maybe a little too punishing gameplay, though :/

Upset Crab by 43sam 2021-04-28T13:52:48Z

Super cute art style! The crab makes me laugh when I attack any enemy, Idk why xD

GRAPPLE the Abyss! by lectvs 2021-04-30T13:33:20Z

I really like the twist on the controls of a typical platformer. Sometimes I feel like I have not enough control over the character, though... For the rest, nice game, congrats :D

LAYERS by Le Slo 2021-04-30T13:30:25Z

SUPER COOL minimalistic style, I love it! Also, great puzzle mechanic. Congratz!

DOWNHELL by Belonzik 2021-04-28T15:18:30Z

I'm loving the polish on the game graphics and gameplay. Super nice game feel :D

Bunny Bunny Dig Dig by ZakAmana 2021-04-29T15:33:12Z

Loving the cute art style! Maybe you could add more depth to the mechanics playing more with gravity (?) Blocks that can fall and hurt you appearing in early stages of the game, etc.

grGRIDid by John Gabriel 2021-04-26T11:13:49Z

Found a bug in the HTML version, where at size "x3 small" the game would let me walk over the void.

Cool resizing mechanic, though! Congrats :D

Dungeon Diver by Caue Henrique 2021-04-26T12:04:46Z

Great game and quite a cool mechanic :D Congrats!

BUGGED by Mr.developer 2021-04-30T13:28:48Z

Loved the game feel and the graphic style! Super punchy and cool game, congrats :)

River, Carry Me Away by Noire 2021-04-28T13:40:00Z

Maybe a little too slow (?) Graphics look good and music is great, though! Very nice mood :D

Underneath by HumanIsRed 2021-04-28T13:48:15Z

I LOVE the comic style on the intro xD Also, great job on controls and game feel, very nice polish! :D

Marty and the Eldritch Horror by Game Endeavor 2021-04-28T15:35:42Z

Great graphics! Also, good character movement, but I'm feeling that spikes should be a little more forgiving... I've died a couple of times by just a couple of pixels ):

Mystical Island by azakharov 2021-04-26T11:22:55Z

Cool idea! I struggled a little with the UI feedback, though. It's not clear where you can and cannot click D:

Submarine Bean by Icoso 2021-04-28T15:13:50Z

Nice cute visuals! I'm missing some kind of wiggle or game feel in the movement. For the rest, though, congrats! :D

Atlantis Gold by SuperFishBoy 2021-04-28T13:43:40Z

Great audio work! On the gameplay side, though, collisions have little sense of impact... I'm missing some kind of feedback when interacting with other level elements D:

Kikker Kerker by kleingeld 2021-04-28T14:35:38Z

Completely in love with the art style! It's a pity that you didn't have time to implement player death ): ...although that bug ironically fits the jam theme super well xD

This is DEEPER by TERA_BITE 2021-04-28T13:13:58Z

Really nice 1-bit art style! Be a little bit more carefull with the audio, though... The "blips" warning the spawn of new platforms almost kill me xD
