LD48 — Deeper and deeper

Terminal Decension by tinykidtoo 2021-04-27T03:10:59Z

Love the idea and the upgrades, I had fun playing it! Would be cool to have explosives hehe.

Depths of Darvaza by ghost-in-the-toast 2021-05-05T06:50:32Z

I loved everything about the game!! Really love that there was voice acting for the narrator and the other characters in the game! I played the non post jam version and found the movement to be a bit too slidey and floaty, but apart from that I'd say that the polish on this game is really good!! My only feedback would be to maybe add in a jump buffer and coyote time to make the platforming aspect slightly easier. Other than that, really good job!!

DIGIDIG by NekuSoul 2021-05-05T04:37:25Z

Really smart puzzle game! I'm not too good at it but I thoroughly enjoyed it! Really interesting take on the theme. Excellent work!

Run Ant Run by Ryano 2021-04-27T04:03:55Z

I love the idea and concept, especially the use of a maze!! Also I love the mini intro animation at the start with the bug spray haha. I had a lot of fun playing this! :smiley:

Wellfell by Kylazaur 2021-04-27T02:55:43Z

Short game but I loved the art, and anims!! Nice puns with the names too :p

The Descent by Sheol 2021-04-27T03:38:40Z

@fullmetal-automaton Ahh! Thank you for the kind words!! :smiley: I'd probably have added more room types and enemies if I had the time :x

The Descent by Sheol 2021-04-27T03:42:24Z

@beytullahunal Thank you!! :smile_cat: I like the idea of 1 tool having multiple uses and came up with the idea of shooting to move + killing enemies. :x Noted on the speed thing!! I was having trouble playing my own game haha. :sweat_smile:

The Descent by Sheol 2021-04-27T03:45:29Z

@giangero Ahh I didn't allow rating for the audio because I didn't make any of them and I didn't wanna take credit for that! :x Glad it managed to elicit the feel I was going for though! hehe

The Descent by Sheol 2021-04-27T03:45:54Z

@phealsout Thank you!!! :smile:

The Descent by Sheol 2021-04-30T13:16:42Z

@rick2112 :p yeah that was intended! Thanks for the kind words! :smiley:

The Descent by Sheol 2021-05-03T01:51:19Z

@lesinvisible Thank you!! :smiley:

The Descent by Sheol 2021-05-03T02:04:39Z

@dan-mcalister Thank you for the kind words!! :smile: I got the idea for the offense and movement thing because I wanted a gun that could so something other than shoot. :x I'm glad you liked the idea and the humor haha.

Noted on the speed up mechanic thing! I could probably modify some of the rooms to reduce empty areas and tweak how the speed up thing works to make it more aligned with its intended purpose of giving the player more 'maneuverability' to avoid certain obstacles.

Thanks again for the kind words and advice! c: I'll probably look into updating the game after the PLAY+RATE thing is over and add in the some of the suggestions and feedback given. :D

The Descent by Sheol 2021-05-12T06:57:19Z

@someone Woah!! 519m?! That's some dedication right there :x Noted on the exit button though! I'll probably also fix up the resolution for the main menu while I'm at it haha.

The Descent by Sheol 2021-05-12T07:00:24Z

@nekusoul @staircase27a @vixenmink Thank you all for the kind words :smile: I'm really glad that there are people who like the general idea and humor with the cats thing. Nice puns btw hehe. :smirk:

Fare Well by alanxoc3 2021-05-03T05:59:45Z

Took me some time to get used to the gameplay controls but once I got the hang of it, it was pretty fun! I love it! Visuals and everything!!

Go to Heck πŸ’€ by Chris Dirkis 2021-05-10T03:13:56Z

Really good for a game jam! Multiple enemies, proc gen levels and fun mechanic! Took me a while to get the hang of the grappling but I enjoyed it! I didn't really know what was the point of the items, but I found some of the flavor texts for them funny. Maybe the items could influence things like the player's damage/fire rate to encourage combat more?

Overall I'd say you did a great job!!

DEEPER! by Stepan Ilin 2021-05-10T03:35:11Z

Pretty cathartic experience though I ended up just mashing my mouse a whole lot. Maybe some penalties for spamming or block types like :bomb: blocks that maybe explode or something would be nice! I think it's an idea with potential to build on and I had fun! Screenshot 2021-05-10 113247.png

Star Trail by Hectare 2021-05-10T03:05:00Z

Pretty interesting and fun! I would have liked maybe more scenarios to showcase the effects of upgrading and to explore the other characters a little more, but I'd say this is pretty good for a game jam! I didn't really know which ship to focus on and ended up trying to upgrade all of them. I still had fun exploring though.

Blobby Da Blobfish by somestufz 2021-05-10T03:22:27Z

I would have liked for Blobby to move a little faster, but I liked some of the characters in the game and it kept me playing for quite a bit!

The Deeper The Better by Giangero 2021-04-26T20:52:08Z

haha I had a good laugh with this one.

LD49 — Unstable

Fission Horse in The Escape From the Condemned Stables by nanolotl 2021-10-11T04:50:44Z

Really fun! I like how you even managed to put in different block types and varying levels! The last level was brutal though 😭 Took me a while to complete haha. Still, I think it's an amazing entry for a compo game! I can't really tell but I would have liked if there was some coyote time for the jumps :x just to make it feel better haha. Overall, great job!!

SEXY BOOBY 95 by silkworm_sweatshop 2021-10-11T08:38:11Z

Wasn't expecting that dose of nostalgia haha! I had a blast playing this, such a cute game that's really well executed. Superbly done!! :D

BALANCE BLOCK BATTLE by squigglez 2021-10-11T05:47:42Z

Really good job!! Such a creative idea, I love it haha. I think the animation effects make it quite polished, a really great entry!

II-III-V by miziziziz 2021-10-13T07:07:52Z

Caught bits and pieces of the stream and wow what a ride! A short and neat entry, I loved the sound design and the atmosphere of it, really well executed. The controls though wowww. I might be a bit biased since I've seen the stream but I really liked it a lot. The ending though 😭 Not really a fan of that :x Still, I had fun!

Fool's Paradise by ghost-in-the-toast 2021-10-13T06:37:09Z

Not gonna spoil but I had a good laugh with this one haha. Shame that you can't rate the humor for this one. A really interesting take on the 'Unstable' theme! Really well done and nicely executed. Great submission haha. I like the little name drop to the previous game jam submission (which I enjoyed too) :x

The Butterfly Defect. by Mallard 2021-10-13T01:56:10Z

Wow! Solid entry! I like the different mini-games and the idea overall. Took sometime before I got the ABC123 part right but once I figured it out I had fun! I think the bonus mode is also a cute touch haha. I really like the overall mood and theme for this one, great job!!

RAGE HORSE by SlickRamen 2021-10-11T06:24:46Z

Woww very juicy, very fun! Really wish there was more!! I loved everything from the music to the sounds to the design. I hope you guys decide to expand more on this game, it feels like it can have great potential :D Also I think having the gun randomise randomly kinda works in a way for the theme haha. Overall, great submission!! I'm really glad I got to play this C:

Wanna Live - Survive! by cavejohnson332 2021-10-13T01:46:30Z

@ks-zealot I had the same issue too in chrome browser but opening it in Edge kinda worked for me! Hopefully that helps!!

For the game, I love the visuals! Having the color coded stuff and the highlights helped a lot! It took me a while to figure out the controls but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. I like the idea and gameplay and I think it's pretty good! I also like the environment design and how you can hear the whirring of the machines as you get closer/see the animations of the things being fixed. Also nice camera shake :vv IMO, I think it'd be good if I had some sort of timer to know how long before rescue arrives. Overall execellent submission! I had fun :D

Drillte by Yokin 2021-10-06T07:04:29Z

Oh wow I love the feel of this game! The drilling and cutting of the asteroids is satisfying and the controls are smooth. The indicator for the sun is also a nice touch! A small tweak I'd like would be to have a longer duration for the timer so I can play longer :p

HONK III by Tricky_Fat_Cat 2021-10-06T10:32:57Z

Omg the level of polish on this game!! I loved everything from the grainy effect to the honking implemented into the music!

Trauma by AdamCYounis 2021-10-06T04:18:25Z

Oh man this is such a beautiful game!! The moment I saw it on stream I knew I wanted to play it! You did a really great with this submission! πŸ‘

Everything is Fine by Noire 2021-10-11T08:27:06Z

Color me impressed! Really great job with the sound design and the art! It really compliments the mood and atmosphere of the game! Very impressive and very polished! What a brilliant entry :D

The Unstable gun by Sheol 2021-10-06T12:40:39Z

@morepixels Thank you!! :D I initially wanted a more chaotic bullet mode haha. If you press 'M' you can see it :p Glad you found it fun!

@yokin Thank you for the kind words :)

@ericbomb Thanks for the feedback!! :DD I made the classic blunder of doing the environment art in 128x128 while the rest of the game is in either 64x64 or 32x32 sprites haha xD

@devin-n Much appreciated!! :D I really love camera shakes haha.

@zhennaperks Ohh!! Yeah haha the sounds are actually the zombie sounds from minecraft ;p The firing sound the enemies make are actually also a minecraft sound :x The final boss music is Carl Orff's O Fortuna (actual name is Carmina Burana iirc) in case you were wondering! Hope you still had fun though :D

The Unstable gun by Sheol 2021-10-06T17:35:53Z

@shea-kelly Ahh I'm glad you enjoyed it!! :D Thanks for the feedback!! Maybe in the future I'll increase the difficulty ;p Thanks for playing! :D

@nanolotl Thank you!! c:

The Unstable gun by Sheol 2021-10-11T08:13:15Z

@squigglez Thank you for the kind words!! I think I could have done more with the lighting haha but hey, it's a learning experience ;p

@slickramen I had just as much fun creating the bullet types haha :p

@bgdc Thank you!! :)

The Unstable gun by Sheol 2021-10-13T00:47:17Z

@talas Ahh noted! I'll work on improving the clarity for my games in future!! Glad you found it fun though!! Thank you! :D

@mallard Thank you for kind words!! :DD Took me quite a while to figure out and set up the sounds/atomosphere haha. I'm glad you got a chuckle out of the final boss hehe.

@cavejohnson332 Every boss needs an 'epic' soundtrack imo :p The final boss music is Carl Orff’s O Fortuna if you were wondering! :D And yeah haha I used the minecraft zombie sfx for the mobs :x Maybe next time when I'm more experienced with things I'll do my own sounds ;p

@matthewlacker Oh man I barely managed to squeeze it in >__< Noted on the feedback on the lighting and mood! Hopefully I'll be able to improve on that for future submissions :x I'm glad you liked the glitched tiles effect haha, those took sooo long to figure out how to make and I was afraid it'd be too disorienting if I left it in the game. :x The initial idea was that everything could glitch out, the wall props, the guns, the bullets but I took too long with just doing the char, enemy and tile glitch that I had to cut it out :x

Precarious Powers by DrSnowDude 2021-10-06T08:09:36Z

Pretty fun! I think it's amazing how you guys managed to pull off a full 3D game this polished for a game jam! Hats off y'all!! I like the idea of the mana overloading, the UI and effects communicated that idea really well. The music is also pretty calming and the overall feel of the game is pretty good.

Tables & Tremors by SlimmerBurger 2021-10-06T17:59:27Z

Oh man this is by far one of my favourite games!! unknown.png

I love the design and it fits really well with the theme!! Took me a while to get a hang of it but once I did, I had tons of fun!! Overall a really great game :D

Manicat by RexTGun 2021-10-06T10:31:51Z

mmhmm I love the overall aesthetics of the game! Very chaotic and really fun!!

GUNSTABLE MAYHEM by cakts 2021-10-13T03:21:26Z

Holy heck the polish on this! So much feedback implemented for everything! Pretty incredible submission!! I loooooove shooters and this really scratches that itch for me, The visuals mannn omg, amazing!! I had strong ULTRAKILL vibes, especially with the shooting core mechanic which is a plus for me. Overall, I think with just a little tweaking with the balance and the mechanics, it can be a game I would totally pay for. Really great entry!!

Untitled Digging Game by matthewlacker 2021-10-13T01:34:47Z

The glitched effects were pretty cool! I like the game idea very much and I think it ties in so well with the current theme! Great job on this submission! Really polished imo, I like how there's even a ragdoll death for the player.

Bad Magic! by MorePixels 2021-10-06T06:55:30Z

Really nice game, oddly therapeutic xD I like the idea and gameplay! It made me chuckle a little looking at the animation for when you pluck a feather out haha. Overall I really like the effort put into the UI, the art and levels!

Unstable Valley by ericbomb 2021-10-06T07:30:08Z

Ah took me a while to figure out the controls even with the readme. It seems like speed is the key here for those wondering how to play. The faster you deploy your units, the faster you can get resources before the enemies. Really interesting concept, I like the audio cues when there's battle happening. I would have liked for different units to play different sounds when deployed.

UKI by Shea Kelly 2021-10-11T08:00:06Z

I like the overall mood of the game, I can see what you guys were going for with the color choices and the music. I think it's a pretty decent game considering that it's your first!

Wobble by BGDC 2021-10-11T07:49:50Z

I love how relaxing this game is!! It's also so polished for a game jam submission! Really great job!! The art and sound design's really great, I especially love the popping sound and animation when you get squished :x

Delusion by Elazulus 2021-10-06T07:43:50Z

I'm a sucker for shooters! I loved this so much!! I didn't really use the sword that often but I liked wave progression and the increasing number and types of enemies! The final boss was also pretty fun to fight :D The animations were smooth and the glow from the projectiles are a nice touch! I would have liked for the map to be a bit smaller but overall I really enjoyed myself playing this game!

ReSTARTeD by Sinclair 2021-10-06T05:01:22Z

Cute game!! I like the concept and idea too!! I like that each boss has a different attack pattern. I think with more time, some additional feedback stuff e.g hitsounds/anims/particle fx would be good.

Overall, good effort!! I still had fun!

Super Snow Ball by Xyri0n 2021-10-13T02:01:32Z

Oh man I wish there were more levels! I like the puzzle-aspects to the game at the later levels and overall I really like the snowball mechanic! What a fun entry, I enjoyed myself playing this!! Great job!

LD50 — Delay the inevitable

Legacy Survivors by quill18 2022-04-05T06:39:12Z

Super addictive and fun, I really enjoyed myself! I found the sound effects pretty funny, I think it adds to the charm of the game.

Shotgun King: the Final Checkmate by benjamin 2022-04-11T04:31:14Z

Easily one of the top games I've played so far! The shotgun and upgrades really add an extra dimension to the already interesting game of chess! Really amazing entry, everything is on point and really polished.

Numerus Maximus by SimplePotential 2022-04-12T07:50:07Z

Pretty interesting game! I sorta had minesweeper vibes from this!

TyPing Pong by Gao Ming 2022-04-04T15:25:28Z

Wow what a brilliant idea to use typing! Also, I think it's pretty incredible that you also managed to make the tutorial fun! Really great submission, I love it!

Balance The Stick by miziziziz 2022-04-04T12:27:34Z

Simple yet fun! Really loved the idea and the subtle mechanics. I can't get over how much I love the ingenuity of it!!

The Sea Won't Stop by m11 2022-04-05T01:02:06Z

I liked the many dialogue options, found it really funny haha. I love it LOL. I lost it at the balanced diet part and explored every dialogue option. A short but great entry nonetheless!

Lava is Deadly by OadT 2022-04-05T02:17:52Z

Pretty unique and interesting mechanic to delay the effects of items! I like that you sort of learn as you go, although it took me quite a while to solve some of the puzzles. I still had fun though! Really great submission!

Soak 'Em Out by Cruise Elroy 2022-04-05T01:32:19Z

Love everything about this game! The sounds, art and design were all very well-thought out! Such a polished game! I haven't been able to get the sunflower seed into the pot yet but overall I had a lot of fun playing. Really amazing entry!

One inevitable thing by Rs11s21n 2022-04-04T15:13:33Z

I like the visuals and the music! Apart from some minor spelling, I think it's a pretty good entry! Great job! :thumbsup:

Crisis Chef: 28 Plates Later by simba 2022-04-11T03:23:41Z

What a unique and fun entry! I only managed to make it to Wave 7 but I felt that the gameplay loop was strangely addicting! I never liked diner dash style games but somehow I really enjoyed myself with this one!! Really great job! I love that there's a nice tutorial made too. Overall, really great job!!

Rocket Lawnchair by jitspoe 2022-04-06T05:47:03Z

Amazing qwop-like gameplay, absolutely hilarious with the voicelines! My hours spent playing qwop felt like they finally paid off!

Faces of the Beast by stamestratagem 2022-04-07T04:57:20Z

I'm so bad at games like these but I still had fun haha! I like how easy it was to understand and really get going. The difficulty curve felt just right too!

Aster Defense by emrod 2022-04-07T05:23:33Z

Amazing game! Once I figured the controls I had a lot of fun! Like others have mentioned, I think the difficulty scaling can be tweaked a little. I would have also liked if I could place more turrets xD Either way I had fun! Screenshot 2022-04-07 132039.png "*I see a suit of armor around the world*" - Ironman probably

Don't Touch It! by KirKami 2022-04-04T14:35:38Z

I really love the idea of how the main menu was done! Also the game itself was hilarious haha. I loved the dialogue and the various hand poses!

Click to Continue by Daniel Foutz 2022-04-04T15:14:27Z

Omg I don't know what to say other than that it's absolutely hilarious haha. Some parts had me laughing so hard my sides hurt. Won't spoil it but overall, a really funny entry. Really loved the voice acting.

Word Wizard by Slecornu 2022-04-12T07:53:13Z

Such a cute game! I love that the wizard has multiple animations while you're casting! Overall I had fun! Great job

Just Another Zombie Game by gabas 2022-04-05T01:23:01Z

I had lots of fun playing this! I think for a zombie game, the idea is pretty unique! I love how your player also turns into a zombie too when dead and the mechanic of the items being destroyable adds to the difficulty! Overall I'd say it's a really good entry! Well done!

5 More Times by uboretsky 2022-04-11T03:38:59Z

The mood and the artstyle compliment the theme so well. I really love the artstyle so much! Apart from some minor glitchiness with the scenes showing, I think overall it's a pretty good entry! Great work! Really beautiful.

Cat in the Bag by JoshH 2022-04-05T01:52:45Z

I love thed art and the dialogue! Took me a while to get through them because there were so many choices but overall I'm stunned by just how much there is! Really amazing job!

1 Man 6 Bullets by Raphaeltan 2022-04-11T06:24:36Z

What a juicy game!! I love the artstyle in the cutscene and I love how chaotic it gets in such a short time!! I really had a blast playing it!! Can't wait to see it be commercialised!!

No Touch The Cat by Sheol 2022-04-12T08:13:13Z

Thanks everyone for the kind comments and feedback! Nugget and I both really appreciate it!!! (he actually likes it when we give him kisses) I'll see if I can continue to improve on it and fix some stuff i.e difficulty scaling/adding new stuff! Thank you all so much!!

photo_2022-04-12_16-08-40.jpg

Degrowth by Cryptomnesic 2022-04-11T03:47:17Z

Took me a while but I managed to figure it out after a few tries and reading some of the comments! I think the idea is that you have to strategically "unbuild" the city (since you have limited demolish points) and get everyone out of there. Interesting idea!

Immune System "Engineer" - Can you Delay the Inevitable Skin Breach? by Aarimous 2022-04-05T02:03:18Z

I love the mechanic and the idea! The artstyle and sounds are also really good! The difficulty curve is also just right with the introduction of more nodes. Overall a really great submission!!

It's gonna be ok. by MarcoDeevil 2022-04-12T07:45:57Z

Hmm overall I think the idea is fine, I like it and enjoyed it! If you're looking for some feedback, I would say to maybe add some effects and sounds to make it juicier! Keep it up!! :thumbsup:

Delay the CATastrophe by byazzle 2022-04-05T01:39:42Z

Cute game!! Love the art style and the fact that you also had some voicelines for when the buttons are clicked! Overall interesting gameplay!

STAY by etrealjunior 2022-04-12T08:01:48Z

Loved the graphics and the sounds! I felt like the AI was kinda hard to beat though! Overall it was pretty interesting to play!

Hospital Dash by brads.space 2022-04-05T00:56:43Z

I love the idea! Also I think the driving is pretty funny with the tire tracks and all, you can practically drift all around town. The music also added to the slightly tense atmosphere! Overall, great job!!

I Don't Wanna Reincarnation by crotonyl_alcohol 2022-04-04T14:43:14Z

Amazing visuals and music! There's also replayability with the different choices and endings! Really great job, I really enjoyed playing!

Wormageddon by MatterLinx 2022-04-06T05:48:42Z

Loving the Art and all its effects! The sound is just amazing too! I loved the gameplay but it was a bit hard for me πŸ˜… Overall, really aawesome submission! I had a lot of fun, especially reading the dialogue

Defy Godwin by ivysly 2022-04-07T04:47:13Z

I had an absolute blast with this game and I'm thoroughly impressed by the amount of effort and writing that went into this! Really great game, I had a lot of laughs. I just kinda wish I can see the chat that caused me to lose the game haha

Study Breaks πŸ“š by Puree Adventure 2022-04-05T06:17:29Z

Such a cute game! I'm really loving the art style and the humor. I think you did amazing for a first game jam! Great job!! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Hungry Bird by GameDevAlexandr 2022-04-04T14:29:33Z

Chill game, the music combined with the effects and the sfx makes it feel very polished! I found it quite funny when I crashed and all the feathers started spewing out haha. Overall, I had fun!

The Gallows by Burn Tree 2022-04-11T03:57:59Z

Love the art and the music! Really gave me strong Night in the woods vibes! Seeing the drawings kinda made me worried that the ending of the game would be a sad one haha. Overall a lovely submission! Great atmosphere and mood to fit the theme!

Time's... Up! by Waysneighborgo2 2022-04-04T12:52:24Z

The music makes it pretty tense! I played on normal and managed to get over 200 coins but got too distracted trying to collect coins that I didn't realise I ran out of time. Overall, pretty good! I had that sense of trying to delay the inevitable

The Wrong Side of The Rhine by ProjectUnfun 2022-04-05T01:12:30Z

I like the concept and the idea! I loved the font choice and the sound effects! I think adding some dead romans/blood effects would be really good! Other than that, it's a pretty good entry!

And Then You Fall by Zack HD 2022-04-07T04:54:13Z

I love the concept and the idea! The music was also very fitting! I got a little confused with the controls but after reading some of the comments, I managed to figure it out. I think with a few fixes and some polish it can be really great! Overall still a really good submission though!

LD51 — Every 10 seconds

autoball by torcado 2022-10-11T04:52:06Z

Super addictive and fun! Easily one of the top games I've played so far! Really great polish and execution.

Tentris by bentglasstube 2022-10-15T03:44:31Z

Love the take on tetris! Music is a banger haha. I thought it'd just be slightly different from normal tetris but as the others have mentioned, it really does change up the strategy a lot! I think it's pretty neat submission and I like that you even added the scoring system too. Very clean and polished game.

Impending Doom of a Thousand Kitties by RalfZ 2022-10-11T04:09:49Z

Such a cute game!!

Kaboomer! by 0x01F0 2022-10-11T04:03:11Z

Haha omg I am absolutely in love with the humor and concept of the game haha. Had a blast with it! I think the sound effects also add to the humor and overall I think this is an excellent submission! Great job!

Game Name by Strega 2022-10-11T04:24:39Z

Such an amazing game! I thoroughly enjoyed myself haha. The design and sleep was the hardest for me. Imo this is easily one of the best games I've seen implement the theme especially because it's so relatable! Overall an awesome submission! (I also like that there were little easter eggs to your previous submissions! Really nice touch)

RΓ©sumΓ© by croze 2022-10-09T16:39:30Z

Oh woww that intro haha. Really great job!! I'm generally pretty bad with platformers so the game was on the harder side for me. I still had fun though!

Artifact Control by cdunham 2022-10-11T09:52:17Z

A bit of a short game but I can see that with some more polish it can have great potential! I think it's nice that there's also some challenge with the random debuffs/buffs given by the artifact. I'm not really a huge RTS player but still I enjoyed this! Great job!!

Silvi by nardandas 2022-10-15T02:24:52Z

Very calm and relaxing entry! The cat is a nice touch and I'm blown away by how amazing this whole thing ties together with the theme. Also I think it's extremely impressive how polished the game is.

Pet the Damn Cat! by Deprecat 2022-10-15T02:29:41Z

Really cute game and pretty accurate too haha. Short and sweet :D

DUNGEON I/O by COKE 2022-10-03T15:30:42Z

Pretty innovative and interesting gameplay! I also like how the level sort of reveals itself gradually as you move, I think it's a nice touch. Overall great submission!!

Out Of Order by TinyLittleStudio 2022-10-11T09:45:07Z

Cute little game! I think it's a great compo submission complete with sounds, particle fx etc and even a tutorial. Though I think the first level with the giant gap + barrels is a bit hard haha. Apart from that, great submission!

Speed Court by Profugo Barbatus 2022-10-15T03:56:21Z

I like the 30 second feature a lot haha. Really helped with the whole game flow. Overall really polished game! I think some of the cases are a bit hard to understand though :x like the one with the 13 steps of stairs and drunken dude thing :sweat_smile: Either way I still had fun! Great work!

Rockatoo by AdamCYounis 2022-10-15T02:17:41Z

As usual an amazing entry! Songs were great, I really love the whole idea and I kinda wish more rhythm games would also do that wildcard note thing. Overall it's really polished and I had fun!

10 Seconds Spell Book by Corporation 2022-10-15T03:10:17Z

Very cool mechanic and spells! I'm very impressed by the number of different spells and types in the game. Also I like the feedback and animations and I think it's really good for a compo submission! Overall great job!! Hope more people get to play your game!!

on track to party by LucaVazz 2022-10-15T01:37:46Z

Very interesting take on the theme and overall a very interesting take on a resource management type of game! Had to read the instructions to figure out stuff but once I did it was nice to play. Overall extremely great job!

CatBlocker Plus by Sheol 2022-10-15T03:49:05Z

@iguanana why, cathub is just a hub for cats! :p nothing suspicious here hehe

@not-the-loading-screen @bridgeonastick @lukas0842 @zimonitrome @mickxe @cosmo-nectarine @ofthebrand @alexsolonnikovp4 @cdunham @xparker @misfire-dev @lucavazz Thank you so much for the kind comments!!! Thanks for playing and rating my short game haha.

ASCII Arena by Not The Loading Screen 2022-10-03T08:01:05Z

I really love the charm of the ascii characters! I think the game idea fits the theme really well too! I think the out of screen thing has already been mentioned. Overall a really great submission!! I had fun!! (though it was hard for me haha)

Fast Dating! by BridgeOnAStick 2022-10-09T06:54:16Z

I like the concept! I didn't really get why I was wrong most of the time but I still think it's a really neat idea. Great submission and I think it goes well with the theme!

Kangaroo Court by Celtican 2022-10-15T03:23:55Z

Fantastic submission haha. I'm a bit slow at reading so uhh I had to cheese it a bit by pausing and reading the cases haha. I think the idea clashes a bit because the case files were so funny!! 10 seconds is barely enough to read it all haha. I especially loved the way the tutorial was designed. I think having the player to start the game by slamming the gavel is a great way to introduce the mechanic.

Overall really amazing work haha.

Cat.exe by Alpha Wolf Studios 2022-10-15T03:01:02Z

OOO I really love the vaporwave-y aesthetics of the game! Also the sounds are nice and the game was somehow relaxing for me haha. The jumping bits were a bit difficult but overall it's a great game! I love the hidden easter egg with the BSOD haha.

locked in by Re-Mar 2022-10-09T16:48:35Z

First off the artstyle is really amazing and I'm impressed by the amount of detail that has been put into the game. Like the other players, I also encounter some bugs but overall I would say it's good effort!

Cats by Turquoise Moon 2022-10-15T03:36:18Z

I love the game idea! I felt like I had more negative applications than positive ones though which made it really difficult haha.

10 Doujins per Second by steinuil 2022-10-15T02:47:52Z

Omg so many references haha. I struggled to catch all of them. Nice use of the theme. I chuckled at some of the jokes. Overall great fun! Would have liked it if we were given just a bit of time to inspect what we were "selling"

3 Hard Knocks by OfTheBrand 2022-10-09T16:58:31Z

Ooo I like this take on the theme. I think maybe having some slight movement for the monsters would help greatly during the lightning flashes! Also maybe if you hit the monsters, you can play a sound of them like dying or something as feedback. Apart from that I think couple with some atmospheric music would make this really nice! Overall great job!!

My Rotten Soldier by Misfire_dev 2022-10-15T01:24:18Z

Oh wow, very atmospheric. RIP kitty ;__; aaa this game really tugs at my heart strings. Overall great job!! I'm gonna go hug my cats now

10 Seconds Till Death by DaylonWilkins 2022-10-11T08:38:39Z

Great game! I think the death animation of the enemies are a bit confusing for me because I keep thinking they're dead because they drop ammo but dashing into them damages me. I think with just some additional polish and music you could have a game with great potential! Overall I still had fun! Like the others it gave me strong devil daggers vibes which is a HUGE plus in my books! :D

Birdwatching by Iguanana 2022-10-03T13:43:02Z

Such a cute game!! I really loved the tidbits of information about the birds. It also really highlighted how inaccurate my typing is haha xD Overall I had fun!! Great submission!!

T&T - Trips & Ticks by Pentaworks 2022-10-15T01:15:12Z

Cute game haha. I love the sound effects and I think it gives it a nice charm. The game idea is interesting but I think there's a bit too much waiting time in-between. Also I think I got a level where the cow was just blocking the way :x I still think it's funny that I can get eaten by a cow xD Overall great job!!

Hell's Kitchen by MaDness 2022-10-11T08:28:14Z

Oh wow I love the art style and the music. The game gets hard really fast for me but it's fun! Really amazing job with the theme and game!

Void Well by Helzinko 2022-10-15T02:34:46Z

Really nice punchy and arcade-y game! I'm not very good at it though haha and after a while it felt a bit reptitive because I just kept alternating between 2 towers. Still a really solid and polished submission though! I think it'd be amazing if the idea could be expanded upon.

Boom64 by Valyn Tyler 2022-10-11T09:59:14Z

Ah I wish there was a bit more polish and explanation for the game haha. Took me a while like the rest to figure out why I was losing. The mouse sensitivity can also be reduced I think xD but apart from that I think it captures the essence of Doom LOL. Great submission!

Chicken Produced All (Clicker game) by Wendy222 2022-10-15T02:39:42Z

I don't normally enjoy gacha games but I think this was cute and I enjoyed the experience playing this.

10 Seconds of Dopamine Hell! by C14 2022-10-11T05:18:51Z

Ooo I have a soft spot for bullet hell games and this sort of scratches that itch. The difficulty of the game is just right and I like the particle effects and animations for the game. Overall I'd say it's a pretty good submission!

The Box by Lukas0842 2022-10-09T06:47:01Z

Great puzzle game!! The level and puzzle design is perfect and I think it's really impressive! Amazing submission

Y.A.Z.S.G by Cosmo Nectarine 2022-10-11T03:57:51Z

I really like the CRT effect! The overall aesthetic is great and I like the punchy sound fx of the shooting. As with the other players I think the difficulty can be tweaked a little but apart from that I like the polish on the game! Great job!

TRY TO DODGE by Sigma-G 2022-10-11T07:56:51Z

Oh man I think with some music this can be really good! I still think it's a great submission especially since it was made in a day!

What's Under The Teapot? by thegamearchitect 2022-10-11T05:01:51Z

Other than the feedback already mentioned by the other players, I think it's a good submission for compo. The concept fits the theme but I think it might have been overkill to do the whole room haha. Otherwise, great work!

10HEAD by zimonitrome 2022-10-09T07:01:32Z

I think this was a really interesting take on the match 3 concept! I think some of the feedback has already been mentioned by the previous players so I'll skip that. Overall I had fun and I think it's really good for a compo submission! Great job!!

LD53 — Delivery

Spaghetti Rails by milano23 2023-05-12T03:41:14Z

I absolutely love the track building idea! Has a very relaxing feel to it!! I kinda got stuck a lot though haha because I couldn't really figure out how to make tracks merge/diverge. Also took me a while to figure out which were the actual destinations. Apart from that I'd say it's a really cool game!! Great job!!

Mailman Murphy by silkworm_sweatshop 2023-05-03T04:38:12Z

Such a cute game!! I really love the old arcade vibe and the mechanics. I kinda got stuck at the top left area in level 7 though haha. Overall it's a really polished entry and I really enjoyed the mechanics

Courier Crusaders by UnitedFailures 2023-05-15T04:21:35Z

Took a couple of playthroughs for me to get the hang of it but once I did, WOW. Such an amazingly fleshed out game for a game jam! I really like the idea and concept and I think the balance is just right. Really amazing work!

Schnosenfloot 2077 by Merotar 2023-05-15T04:50:59Z

I enjoyed the game, especially the aesthetics. I really like how the lighting was done and the overall mood for the game is really good. I think maybe there could be some damage upgrades coupled with some enemies with scaling health for some added challenge. Apart from that I'd say it's a really polished entry and you should be proud!

Invernal Slumber by kohqctps 2023-05-12T03:59:28Z

Such a charming game! I think the controls were a little bit finnicky with the double jump timings but overall I really enjoyed it and I'm super impressed by it! I really like that you can wall climb or pounce like a cat. I think the ritual part was a tiny bit confusing to me but I like the overall idea. Great job!!

Chain Mail by AdamCYounis 2023-05-03T04:32:29Z

Loved the music and visuals!! I sort of ran out of missions to dispatch and couldn't beat the game but I think overall it's a really good entry!

Ash & Phoenix by Honey Pony 2023-05-15T06:50:42Z

What a peaceful game. I started out just vibing with the whole zen-ness of the typing and then I sort of got absorbed into the story. The slight pause made me think the game was over but wow. What an experience. I'm not gonna spoil but damnnn aaa the ending :sob::sob::sob: . Really great job!!

WORD DROP by MKRaw 2023-05-05T03:52:21Z

I like how casual and relaxing this game is!! I think maybe there could be more levels or something, apart from that, good work!

Desert Mayhem by uniquecorn 2023-05-05T07:31:33Z

Fun game very juicy 10/10

Fuscus and The Garlic Kin by Buumiii 2023-05-15T03:44:08Z

Really such an adorable game!! I love the whole theme and idea about it. Apart from some minor bugs here and there, it's a pretty good submission

Derilicity Delivery by Jag 2023-05-15T04:37:23Z

I'm amazed by the environment and I really like the feel of the car. I think it's super impressive for a game jam and like the others my only small gripe is the audio haha. Really amazing work!!

Once upon a delivery... by SayuriNyooko 2023-05-12T03:31:35Z

I think it's a really cute and charming game, the music is pretty good and I like the overall idea and theme!

Delivery of Duty: Same Shift Different Package by Surfa 2023-05-15T04:30:57Z

Really neat idea!! I like that you had voicelines for when you complete the mission perfectly and I also like the leeroy jenkins reference haha. Apart from some graphical glitches here and there I'd say it's a pretty good submission!!

Purrfect Delivery by Mashiro 2023-05-15T06:35:20Z

Absolutely stunning and adorable submission!! I loved everything from the art to the audio and gameplay!! The pop ups were so funny I actually got crashed multiple times because I was laughing so hard at them haha. Really amazing submission, great job!! I really can't express just how much I love this game

Uberroo by Saryah 2023-05-05T07:29:43Z

Cute game!! Would've liked to be able to take more than 1 order at once haha. The controls are pretty smooth and I like the effort put in!

Rock Paper Scissors Inc. by Weston Goggins 2023-05-05T03:31:50Z

Cute game!! I think it's a really interesting take on a sokoban game and the levels are really nicely designed!! Great work!!

Delivery Guy by GordienkoGames 2023-05-15T03:48:33Z

xD I had a good laugh playing this!! Unique idea and extremely fun mechanics!! I especially loved the ending bit LOL. Really great work!!

Pigeon Post by Mantook 2023-05-05T03:18:48Z

Like the others it took me a while before I realised you could put multiple letters into 1 tube haha. I think the difficulty curve is a little too high for me but overall I really enjoyed the visuals, audio and the gameplay loop! Such a lovely game, great work!!

What's The Deal With...? by Robertthebastian 2023-05-15T06:12:21Z

Very interesting take on the theme of delivery haha. I like the overall idea of a deck builder and I think the card abilities were really good. I feel like there might be one too many damage types though. Overall really impressive submission!

Where's My Lunch? by Harmless Hawk 2023-05-15T04:59:21Z

I would have really liked to be able to plow through other cars haha. I don't know if it's intentional but I ran into a couple of road pile-ups where the cars just kept crashing into each other and blocked a part of the road which added some challenge to the game. Like the others, I loved the music and the gameplay loop! Great job!!

Delivery Survivor by Smoky01 2023-05-12T04:23:49Z

I like the idea and the gameplay loop! I think it's just maybe missing some feedback like enemies getting hit or maybe some audio cue to let you know that the delivery was successful. Also the orange one was a bit bugged for me because my character couldn't fit through. Apart from that I think it's a pretty good job and I had fun!

The Weird Shit People Get In The Mail by RABILLER 2023-05-15T05:24:54Z

Took me a couple of tries to get the hang of it haha. I like the idea but I feel like the time limit was pretty strict. I don't know if it's possible to get 100% quality on all the items and I struggled with stuff like the owl and the giant piece of ham but overall I really enjoyed the game. Many of the items gave me a good chuckle haha. Good job!

LD55 — Summoning

The Cauldron!πŸ§‰ by mr.kvinter 2024-05-01T13:05:30Z

Oo I see potential with this idea! Maybe if it was real-time and you had a recipe list for players to mix and match summons, you could probably work it into a tower defense of some sort! Max I was able to get to was round 7 but I had fun! Good job!

Summoning Ritual by velvetlobster 2024-05-01T04:08:36Z

I like the idea of using platforming to tell the story. I think the art and the animations are really good, having the parallax for the background is such a nice touch and the jumping animation feels really smooth. I would have liked a bit of coyote time for the platforming but honestly it's not really that important haha. Overall great work!

Legend of Lady by Spice Cabinet 2024-05-01T12:58:37Z

First off I really like the catchy music and the art! I think I lucked out at the start and had an easyish level but subsequent playthroughs proved to be a bit harder haha. Like the others, I feel that maybe some variation in the enemies and the sounds would have been better, but great work nonetheless!

Summoner Pest Control by Sheol 2024-04-15T19:14:21Z

@sicosiber Ohh!! Okay! Noted on the controls bit haha. I've updated it to hopefully be clearer! Thanks for playing!!

@suksu Thank you!! Yeah, I think a tutorial is sorely needed to explain the controls haha but I didn't manage to get one out in time >__<.

Summoner Pest Control by Sheol 2024-05-01T04:27:26Z

@velvetlobster Thanks for playing haha, I'm glad you liked the death animation :x I'm not really an artist so I just tried to make up for that with humor :p

@tod-semple Thanks for playing!! Yeah the difficulty was a bit hard for me to balance. I'll take note of that!

Summon Or Unsummon by DaivyIsHere 2024-05-01T13:28:30Z

real summoner.PNG

Took quite a while but I love the overall feel of the game! Really polished and fun! I love the humor and the slow build up. I now have a fear of fish though haha

Cat Summoner by Tod Semple 2024-05-01T13:35:46Z

gems.PNG

What a cute game! I really love that you made this with your kids! That's really so cool of you to do that. Overall I love the idea and would like to see it be improved on! It's actually so addictive haha. Overall really fun! Great work!

NECRO RUSH by helviett 2024-05-01T04:14:53Z

Really polished game! I like that there's difficulty levels to get you accustomed to the game. I kinda wish that the upgrades would stack or be permanent haha. Overall really fun and cool idea. Great job!

DURO by Fenix131113 2024-05-01T03:41:46Z

Interesting puzzle game! I like that you actually took the time to make a tutorial level and I think it's pretty cool how you have so many different interaction for different elements. Overall, a very relaxing and polished game! Good job!

Super Pal Summoner! by Meepster 2024-05-01T04:24:01Z

Really cute game! Took me a while to get the hang of it and I had to play really carefully because I kept misclicking but I had fun!

Canoe Summoner: I Rose To The Top Despite Having a Garbage Skill by Sicosiber 2024-05-01T03:55:12Z

Omg I absolutely love and adore wacky games like these! I think the sensitivity was a bit too high for my liking but I like the gameplay and I think it has good potential to be expanded upon!

Ratastrophe by NaPlz98 2024-05-01T03:33:05Z

Extremely adorable game!! I especially loved the cat sounds haha. I kinda wish that the summoning would show which direction to press it in but overall, it's still really fun! Great work!

Burger Ritual by meylish 2024-05-01T04:35:55Z

I really adore the artstyle for the game and I like that the characters sort of have some personality to them and their orders. Overall great job!

Grave Mistake by Suksu 2024-05-01T04:03:41Z

Overall really polished game! I like the mechanics and the feel of the dash! I feel like the game could definitely be expanded upon to have more summon variations or upgrades to the character. Great job!
