The Last Route by T4RAN 2026-10-25T18:33:37Z ♥ 0
Yeah! Really impressive! A bit confusing what's going on at the beginning. I'm not sure if I should have built a mushroom farm, bc I basically had no food the whole game, although the fog still got me at the second to last stop. Agreed about the number 2 font. Nice job!

Oh man, I also saw your Plasmo something game video. That looks dope!

Hahahaha I guess I wasn't supposed to accelerate to top and crash into the cars.
Why isn't This Working? by _radiolaria 2026-10-20T03:50:02Z ♥ 5
Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh LOL like this is objectively hilarious and super creative, but holy guacamole, this game is absolutely incomprehensible πππππ. Even clicking is super frustrating. Oh man, I could give a detailed critique about a lot of little things like how I didn't realize the ants were behind glass so I could interact with them. That said, for a game jam game, this is pretty incredible. It's really goddam funny, but oh god was it frustrating πππ. LOL when I plugged in the plugs the "right way" I was like uhh what ππ Nice job. Can't wait to see this with a bit of UI love.
Jelly & Bones by bobanko 2026-10-20T02:57:48Z ♥ 3
Wow, this is really cool! Great vibe, great look! TBH, I think the game would really benefit if you just turned off rotation in the physics. I had so much trouble just pushing a block bc my skeleton and the crate kept rotating awkwardly. Turning off rotation or or even locking the movement to the grid would really help. Also I'm not sure if you really need to rotate the camera, although tbh I didn't get that far, so maybe it's needed later. The controls are a bit confusing in terms of which direction they point to, so if there's a way to just lock the camera, that would a help a little. But isometric grids are tricky.
That said, this is totally awesome. Would love to see where this goes! Nice job!
Six Chambers by dejavu 2026-10-20T01:26:05Z ♥ 1
Wow! Very interesting! Absolutely stunning look and great vibe! The only thing is that sometimes I'm a bit confused as to what's going on. This was particularly noticeable with the springs and and oil (I think????), but I'm not totally sure, bc I genuinely wasn't sure what was going on. That said, really interesting and cool idea. Looks great!

Yoooo! You are crazy too! πππ OMG THE DUCK!!! It got me the first time!!! I wasn't ready!!! hahaha nice job! Really cute and fun!

Damn, this looks cool. Wish there was a web or Mac version.
UNCALLED FOR by EKLSN 2026-10-20T00:52:39Z ♥ 1
I haven't reviewed it yet, bc I literally couldn't get anything to work. I got past the video sequence into the first room and pressed literally every button and nothing seemed to work. What am I doing wrong? Also every time I switched tabs, the game resets and I have to start over and watch the video sequence from scratch while I try and figure out what buttons I'm able to press.
DAISY by Segtree 2026-10-20T00:44:11Z ♥ 1
Haha, ok, this is very strange and interesting. I think you were the one who said they were into Vocaloid; and I can see that π. Tbh, I was very confused when I first started playing, but figured it out eventually. Once I did, I had a lot of trouble with my note length and being unable to remove incorrect notes. I didn't realize the note length was a toggle. So some kind of visual indicator and a way to delete notes would be really helpful. LOL also, when I finally finished my first song, it said I ran out of time!!! How fast am I supposed to do this???? LOL the first song should be easy, when the player is trying to figure everything out!
That said, there's some cool audio idea going on. I'd love to see again where it's a bit easier to play! Nice job!
CARDKID by OldDog 2026-10-19T22:55:20Z ♥ 0
Wow, there is... just SO MUCH here. I'm genuinely impressed by this. This (these??) game is clearly in the lead in terms of how much I played it; and I stopped at the car racing level. I really liked the blocky rotation look in that section. The only thing I really noticed is that when I tried a shortcut during the snow track, the game got very confused; and the camera was very out of place. It also didn't register my finish, so I guess I can't shortcut Β―\_(γ)_/Β― oops! But really nice job. There is just so much in here! lol Even the animation for switching between cartridges is really nice.
There are some minor things I could comment on. Like some of the color changes in the first game are a little weird, but overall it's pretty great. Nice job!
Claude castle by Tero Pulkkinen 2026-10-19T22:01:35Z ♥ 2
I'll be real, I kind of love this. I know it's AI, but it has none of the hallmarks of slop. Like, it's legitimately charming. Those little viking/dwarf/whatever guards are fantastic. The dragon is hilarious and amazing. The princess. THE PRINCESS. πππππ. And that cute little elephant in the tent.
Ignoring the fact that it's not a game right now, it needs some tweaks. At the horizon line, the rain causes a kind of moirΓ© flickering effect, which is unpleasant. The little clown(?) people are jumping at a rate that's too fast and tweaky looking. Personally, I'd love better traditional FPS + mouse controls, but at the same time, all the funny limitations combined give it this amazing 90s demo vibe that are kind of unbeatable. LOL and no collision detection. Just walk through everything ππ. Perfect! No need for complicated mechanics like opening doors. Hahaha honestly how can you not think this is kind of great?
Nice job.
Gamma Emergency by OnlinE_Play 2026-10-19T21:39:25Z ♥ 1
@online-play Honestly, this is pretty great. Welcome back! Hahaha, omg yeah tbh, I was extremely confused by the trolley thing in the very first area. I had to come to the comments to understand what was going on. It took me like 4 tries to get it; and each time I failed I had to watch (the excellent) cut scene all over again π. LOL so yeah, it seems pretty great, just really hard out the gate.
Also tbh, I think it would actually be funny if the character kept ended up working in jobs where there was a disaster each time. It would just be funny. I actually had an idea for a game where something like that happens.
All that said, the vibe is cool! Try turning down the volume on the game over sound! π I like what you made a lot, just needs a bit of polish. Nice job!
A Night in Haunted House on the Hill by A Little Red Panda 2026-10-19T21:24:18Z ♥ 0
Hahahaha! This was great! I immediately loved the vibe! I was able to find Miles and Quill! I dunno if there are more ghosts. If you ever decide you want to go into VR, I feel like this would work very well.
I found a small bug where somewhere my character got shoved upwards; and I was clipping the ceiling slightly. On the other hand, when dropping an item got messed up, the game handled it pretty gracefully, although the item got cloned. Not sure if you want that or not, but not really a big deal.
Nice job! I really enjoyed it! Love the look.
Machinerra by NoNumbersGames 2026-10-19T21:13:58Z ♥ 2
Hmmm, ok, I'm a little torn bc part of me is really intrigued but also I'm fairly confused. I got up to where there were two walls and some room at the bottom with a bunch of enemies and like .... a charging station or something. I pressed all the buttons but nothing seemed to happen. Was I supposed to smash another spider into a wall? I'll try again if I get a hint. But there are some definitely good vibes/atmo here. It kind of reminds me of 90s Mac shareware games for some reason. I'm not sure why. But way better looking. Those have kind of a special place in my heart. I'd definitely like to see where this goes. I also appreciate the attention to adding configurable controls and a good menu/UI system. I completely forgot to let players change control. The menu just looks really nice and is good attention to detail. Nice job! I'd say keep going if you can! I'm intrigued where this leads!
T.O.R.Q by BadPiggy 2026-10-19T19:21:45Z ♥ 1
Hahaha ok! I like the basic idea, but jumping over enemies to get more energy for your gear while not falling off bc you get a speed boost is pretty hard. Also, since this is racing, having some floor boosts near the natural racing line would be helpful. I also found myself wanting to smash into other racers, not just jump over them. That said, I like the basic idea. I'd just like to see where you take it. Nice!

Hahahaha, this is totally hilarious. Looks and sounds great. What a funny idea. The only note I have would that it would be funnier if that instead of Lorem Ipsum, if there was something to actually read. That would give it some kind of progression. Nice job!
Living Scraps by Iluvatar 2026-10-19T16:45:32Z ♥ 4
Wow, totally badass! LOL and yes! @jiri-hysek the kitty!!!! Shame on you!! ππππππ I ended up sticking with some robot nepotism in the end. LOL yes, the robot horror is surprisingly effective.
This was really cool and very polished. If you decide to stick with this, for me, the main thing that could use a little love is making some of the UI a little more clear. It's not bad or anything, but there were a couple moments at the beginning where I was just standing there and didn't understand what was going on. lol I mean if you're intentionally going for confusing 80s adventure game vibes, ok, but from my perspective, a little subtle intentionality here would be helpful.
And if you decide to expand on this, making the goals a little clearer would help. I don't think in the LD realm, it's that big of a deal, but kind of understanding what you're trying to balance beyond just choosing one horror over another ππππ. Nice job! Would play again

Old Man Playing Old Game by NTMalichi 2026-10-19T15:59:11Z ♥ 1
LOL this is hilarious, but I couldn't even get onto the first platform. Like this is intentionally frustrating, but a bit too frustrating for me. Maybe give me a higher jump so I have even some chance of getting anywhere?? Hahaha that said, it was totally hilarious. The old man "uhhhhh" sound was too funny.
Stick and Hoop Simulator by uvwar 2026-10-19T04:35:09Z ♥ 1
Hahaha, cool, nice job. It would be nice if there was a way to turn (is there a way to turn??); and if your hoop ends up in a bad angle, a way to right it so it starts rolling in the correct manner again. Fun idea. You should really check out that rings game.
Korobeinik by Valeriy 2026-10-19T04:30:59Z ♥ 1
Cool vibe, but yeah, like commenter said above, I was pretty confused while trying to figure out what was going on. "Near side" for the weights is ambiguous. Also, the coin at the top leftβI'm not sure what that's supposed to mean. My transaction was for 3 kopek per pound, but I didn't realize that at first, because the big coin said 10. That said, there's a cool idea here.
HOLLERITH by pankun 2026-10-19T04:24:51Z ♥ 1
SO cool! What fun idea! I wasn't able to change languages to English on web, either. It automatically escapes out of the browser window. Also at the end, the escape button no longer let me exit the window; and I couldn't figure out how to exit without pressing all the buttons that I couldn't read. That said, very cool idea! Great vibe. The disco drum sound effect for the middle/balanced card was a nice touch! Nice job!
Hail Mary by Dblazer63 2026-10-19T04:13:50Z ♥ 2
Wow, this is legitimately cool. Great vibe, great sound, great look. I was just honestly kind of confused by what was going on. I know this is game jam game, so not everything is figured out. I would just love more clarity on what I'm supposed to do. I figured out that I needed to press A, but I didn't really understand what manually aiming was for. That said, this is really interesting! Nice job!
