Maeko's Memories by Carraka 2019-05-01T04:57:47Z ♥ 0

Really cool story and such a nice take on the theme! I'm definitely following along to see future updates.

Blood and goods by selewi 2019-05-01T04:32:21Z ♥ 2

To be honest, I came into this thinking that it would play a lot like Darkest Dungeon, but you really took the concept and went your own way with it! The button-press mechanic is really simple and fun (and it makes me realize how bad I am with navigating my own keyboard). Also, THOSE VISUALS. You're artwork reminds me a lot of Mike Mignola's and that's awesome. Only criticism I have is that the death screen takes a while to fade out and isn't skippable. Other than that, fantastic!

Also, wow, how did you get those sprites so crisp with Unity! I feel like the engine typically crushes the heck outta everything, haha.

Controls are nice and the visuals and sound are super well executed! Those jellies take a while to die, but the challenge isn't too frustrating, so nice job! :^)

Petite Cuiller by lagrume-masque 2019-04-30T07:23:36Z ♥ 0

I have a friend who's explained the spoon analogy to me; I think I will send this to them. I enjoyed it and I think they would too. :^)

Snek Farm by t3nshi 2019-04-30T07:07:08Z ♥ 2

This is such an addicting little game, and what a wonderful twist on the original! Maybe for that third level you could start the snek a little further from the wall; it seems like he's a little close. Makes me want strawberries; good job!

Space Struggle by meursault 2019-04-30T05:15:26Z ♥ 1

I can see this being really really engaging with some tweaks. Often I felt like I never would have had enough fuel to make it to the green planet despite my choices, and on one occasion, there was a massive gap between the left side of the map and the right that I'm pretty sure was impassible under all circumstances. Still, really interesting and very nice to look at. I hope you continue to work on it post-jam. Do it for the doggos!

Those controls were a little bit clunky, but I absolutely loved the prerendered graphics. Your camera-turn effect is really cool, and I think this visual style has a lot of potential. :)

utsvulten by ditto 2019-04-30T04:52:04Z ♥ 0

This is the best one I've seen BY FAR. Also, thank you for giving me a moment to use my sparse Swedish-language knowledge from days long gone, even if it were to read one brief word. Peace out dude ~~~

Transfert by p0nce 2019-04-30T04:41:34Z ♥ 1

The visual style and overall atmosphere were so groovy! Simple game, but totally compelling with all the right vibes. I wish I could figure out how to win and save the little larva, poor guy.

Coin Odyssey by Thermacon 2019-04-30T04:20:43Z ♥ 0

I love the premise, but the camera is very difficult to work with. I also think the hand is a little unnecessary since the levels were alreaydy pretty challenging to maneuver already. Really cool take on the theme though; wish I could turn on my side and roll!

The Legend of the Peixaralho by ShadowKitsune 2019-04-30T04:03:13Z ♥ 2

Awesome shaders! When you get a buff, it might be nice for that not to stop the gameplay entirely. Otherwise, fun idea!

safecrack by torcado 2019-04-30T03:45:57Z ♥ 0

This is a great idea! I really hope you go forward and add some nice tunes, because that would really be the icing on the cake.

Fools Fortune by Gear Steak 2019-04-30T03:41:41Z ♥ 0

Very interesting! I hope you keep on with it and make some interesting sprites for the different arcana cards. I wish there was a little more direction between the scenarios, but I never was much of a DND guy. The flavour text is fun to read though!

Koe by velvetlobster 2019-04-30T03:30:01Z ♥ 2

Everything was so lovely to hear and look at. Light criticism; the repeated messages from sweaping the floor got a little obnoxious, but the rest of the dialogue was tops. I can't tell if the self-deprication is part of the game or not, but you definitely should feel proud of what you made!

Avaritia [unfinished] by Talbone 2019-04-30T03:06:47Z ♥ 4

I got caught in a dialog loop almost immediately; not sure if that's a bug. That frog is adorable though! I love your style!

Limited Blood Works by thernz 2019-04-30T02:06:45Z ♥ 2

Man, wave three.. that difficulty, am I right? Super fun! I personally love the difficulty curve; makes it feel super arcade-y.

The 7 Cents Deal by Probe31 2019-04-30T01:52:41Z ♥ 2

WOW totally loved it; this is the cutest mess and my heart hurts. I hate that you made me do change on the spot though; flashbacks to my Walmart years!
