Don't Forget To Water! by Thor Lucas 2020-04-20T03:59:03Z ♥ 1
What a lovely little plant sim! Lots of depth here with some pretty simple mechanics. I could see this being made into a nice gardening game.

I like the mechanic of mixing different coloured liquid, but I felt like the game itself was too hard even on the easiest setting. It would probably be better if there was just a time limit and the crystals didn't gradually change colour from what you put in them. I am also a bit confused as to why you went with that movement system over the conventional WASD or arrow keys. It's definitely not intuitive from that camera angle.
Lovely graphics on a nice simple game. And a really clever take on the theme!
Great concept! Difficulty curve may be a little too high, but it's a lot of fun and looks great!
A fantastic endless runner! Lots of fun, really responsive, and juice through the roof! Great stuff!
The basic gameplay is pretty good with the exception of it sometimes feeling a little unfair with how suddenly the gun changes direction. Graphics are well done too, but the subject matter is pretty poorly handled for such a sensitive issue that affects a lot of people. Consider including a content warning and a link to some relevant crisis services.
Fantastic concept! Had a lot of fun bouncing between bombs. Very challenging overall.
Popping the zombies was pretty satisfying. Reminded me of bloons. Sound effects were a bit grating though, so I muted the game while I was playing.
Really cute game! Controls could use a little work. I spent a while standing on top of the torch trying to pick it up before realising I had to be next to it. But overall feels pretty good to play and looks great!
Really enjoyable game. The gunplay was satisfying and the upgrade progression felt really good. Also really liked most of the sound effects except for the background engine drone which was a bit much.
Hah! I geddit.
Fun little shooter. Just wish there was an option to hold the mouse button instead because the rapid clicking is not great for rsi.
This game is really polished. Love the art style and theme and a pretty unique puzzle mechanic too.
Such a beautiful story. And now I have a headache.
Good use of the theme and pretty satisfying once you get some momentum. Could use some scaling over time with how many enemies came out. As it is I found I could kill everything by just keeping a little square of 4 towers over the middle of the path and then I got bored.
The art style is pretty nice, but it felt like I had very little control in the actual gameplay. The character would seemingly jump for no reason and I ended up getting stuck in front of a ledge with no option to do anything.

What a fantastic game! Who knew you could get so much atmosphere out of such a simple premise? I definitely recommend playing with headphones on. The soundscape reminds me of riding down a steep hill on a bicycle with the wind in my face. Great job!
Bat and Spider Cavern by Greg the Egg 2021-04-26T09:19:47Z ♥ 2
I thought the graphics in this were adorable! Gameplay-wise it's a perfectly decent top down shooter and the darkness as you get deeper was a good way to mix it up!
Abyss of Heart by ElSombrero 2021-04-26T09:13:50Z ♥ 2
There's some interesting stuff in this. I wasn't a fan of the combat, or the puzzles that forced you to restart the level, but the simple graphics were very pretty and clearly a lot of work went into designing a pretty long game in 48 hours!
Rope Down by Wunarg 2021-04-26T08:56:05Z ♥ 1
Really fun game! I always love a good grappling hook :) The graphics do need some work. They have a cool early PC graphics look which I kinda like, but with the amount it's zoomed out on a modern monitor it can get pretty hard to see what's going on.

Cool mashup of some retro games! The controls were pretty smooth and it works well with the theme. Good job!
GOBLIN HAMBURGER LASER ARENA by youthfulIdealism 2021-04-26T08:32:01Z ♥ 1
The html5 version was super laggy for me, but what I was able to play was really fun! The mouth laser was really satisfying and dodging the enemies to get to the burgers made for a good gameplay loop
The Life Aquatic by Cary Stanley 2021-04-26T06:47:40Z ♥ 2
Like others have said the audio is pretty great. Personally I found the controls to be a bit too sluggish and only managed to find 9/10 species. But overall, fun concept well executed!
Wrangler's Knot - Deep Dive Sea Fishing by welby 2021-04-26T06:16:47Z ♥ 2
Lovely graphics and a really interesting mechanic. The game got a bit hard to control when the chain is supper long since the barge just keeps spitting it out, but great job overall!
