I love this one. I love the art style, I love the gameplay, the character animation is very satisfying to watch. It fits the theme extremely well. This kind of traversal is very interesting, I'd love to see a more fleshed out prototype one day. Excellent work! 😁👍

I haven't run into TIC-80 before now, I guess it's similar in concept to PICO-8. I'm going to dig in and learn more later on today, I love this kind of thing.

Just a quick bug report though, probably more for TIC than you @alec but I can't get it to start at all in firefox. I get the white play button in front of the dark blue background, and nothing happens no matter I do. I was able to play it in Chrome however.

I love factory games so much. The music is nice, the space is indeed limited! It opened with a divide-by-zero error, but that didn't seem to affect gameplay. It just makes me feel more immersed into the role of a factory manager 😁

Overall I really enjoyed this one, good work 😁👍

@anciententity Yes! As far as I can tell, it had no negative impact on the game at all

Good work, I like the slow ramp up in difficulty, I got swamped at lvl 15 just like the description promised. 😅 I'm not super clear on what the choice meant. At first I thought it was a cumulative "increase damage or visibility" type trade off, but in the end I think you're just choosing one of the same four weapons each round with no actual progression? What is "bigger eyes"? I kind of expected the camera to zoom out a little or something with that one.

Overall I had a lot of fun with this one

There's a lot about this one that is very satisfying. Getting the cat to be the exact perfect length is 🔥

@alec @nepturenus @hangovergames Thank you for letting me know! I had that feeling that I'd forgotten something, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was. I've fixed it now 😅

Fridge Frenzy by ScottMakesGames 2023-10-03T03:31:33Z

@congeesetador Oh no! Sounds like I have a bug! Indeed we should have made it more obvious what was happening 😅 Lessons learned for next time!

Heads up, the download doesnt work for me, Firefox, Windows 11, no ad blocker or extensions. It doesn't download. Might just be me.

@haotian-chen It works now! I'm glad I came back to this one! Very pleasant atmosphere, challenging jumps. I got lost a couple of times because it didn't occur to me to go back to the left. The jumping mechanics feel great. In particular you have it set up so that if I only briefly tap the jump, I get a smaller jump than if I hold the jump button. This is excellent attention to detail, its one of those invisible little features that makes a huge difference. Great work! 😁👍

If I could add one constructive piece of feedback; when the breaking platforms fall out from beneath the character, it would ***feel*** a lot better if you allowed the character to still jump for a short moment. Its another one of those invisible details makes a big difference.

I loved this one. Its so simple, but it kept me hooked for almost an hour. It's brilliant, it captures the theme extremely well, its largely polished. I could see myself trying to get a daily streak going in it similar to the waffle. Great work 😁👍

Narrow Cells by StvUP 2023-10-03T02:41:20Z

This one is excellent. I love everything about it! Great visuals, great music, great fit to the theme. Excellent work!

Disk Defense by Congeesetador 2023-10-03T04:01:01Z

I thoroughly enjoyed this one! Especially the game over screen lmao 🤣. I didn't like the shooting speed and feel at first, but that made it more satisfying when I got some upgrades.

This game was a lot of fun, I played it for a lot longer than I've played most other submissions. Great work!

Limited Island by foreyes 2023-10-03T03:16:46Z

This game has such a nice atmosphere! I love the animation on the character, and the worms! Its surreal. Good work. I didn't realise that the water was rising until I drowned. There must be some metaphor for life in there. 😁

Claustrophobia by NoobGeek 2023-10-03T02:30:27Z

This one was a lot of fun! I liked the slow ramp up where it keeps getting more complex. It took me a while of randomly clicking around before I found the "scheme" button in the top right of the panel. I was able to crash it by clicking scheme before it told me to panic. I got up to 7 before I wasn't fast enough. Great job.

You Can't Take It (All) With You by Derek Glennon 2023-10-03T03:48:43Z

I'm going to agree with everyone else here. The characters are adorable! Its such a pleasant little vignette with slightly confusing gameplay. The hand drawn UI style I love, the gradient on the characters and hats I loved too.

Fac Spatium by nathmate 2023-10-03T02:58:20Z

This game was really cool. Very short (which is great!), I love that there are only three inventory spaces and that you need to use them all to build the rocket. The only thing I would criticize is that I never found out what the third shape did because I was able to build the rocket as soon as I had circles! I enjoyed this quite a bit

Shrink Up by 0Point 2023-10-03T03:06:52Z

Wow! Excelent! At first I was looking into the distance, wondering if the world was procedural and repeating, and if there were parts where you sort of have to cross the wrap boundary to get higher. But then I noticed as I got higher, the terrain would clip in a way that looks very much intentional, similar to those fractal 4-dimensional demos you can see on youtube. The music was a perfect fit. I LOVE the atmosphere.

I must say regarding the theme though, it seems like you took the direct opposite approach. Like instead of limited space, you went with regular space, made it infinitely large, and then added a further dimension to it --- making it even less limited than unlimited (if that makes sense).

Overall I loved this one. I'd love to see a full game along these lines. Great work! 10/10, got really high

This one looks and sounds excellent, but I can't risk it. Even if it is probably safe. 😟

The art style is incredible
