Error 404 for the link! Make sure it's set to publish.

The Last Day of Pompeii by Double_A 2022-10-04T07:28:21Z

Interesting puzzle game where you race to survive and save as many Pompeiians as you can.

Compliments on the art, music and the atmosphere, I loved how it gets darker/more orange as lava approaches.

There were no sounds in the intro cutscene, which might be a bug!

I don't see any connection with the theme thought... You only have 10 seconds to play, but nothing happens every 10 seconds. You might have flooded a section of the town with lava every 10 seconds, for example.

Oh, and the game over screen is a tad too long. If I lose, I want to get back into it as soon as possible. First time it brought up the atmosphere but after that it was a bit tedious.

Chrono Extractors by tengusheath 2022-10-08T08:21:08Z

While there's a definitive advantage to learning by doing, some kind of a tutorial at the start of the game would've been greatly appreciated. I rushed to build a couple of Extractors so I can fund the Barracks, only to discover it's not spawning units. At first I thought it was a bug so I restarted the game a couple of times, went for the same strategy, got the same results. Then I built the Depot.

I might be a slow learner, but to my defense, RTS games usually have extra supply capacity so you can build some units right off the bat, without a need to build extra supply buildings.

Love what you did with the theme, the minimalistic art style and music! Gameplay loop is solid, I had great fun getting overwhelmed a couple of times.

With more work, I think you can make this into a proper game, some sort of idle RTS roguelike, with meta progression, unit upgrades, a way to heal units/repair buildings and more enemy variety.

10 FURY by Urggann 2022-10-04T07:07:51Z

Impressive for a first jam game! I had fun playing the game and wished the difficulty kept increasing as I went along - i.e. more than 3 enemy soldiers spawning, maybe even an enemy tank attacking.

I would recommend starting the game with the HELP menu opened!

The main cannon of the tank is useless, and I've upgraded the machine gun until it sounded like a Gatling gun from hell and spewed an endless stream of bullets. Loved the Air Strike effects!

My biggest gripe with the game is the theme - an upgrade every 10 seconds is not that impactful.

@urggann You managed to create a fun and polished experience all by yourself! That's what counts. Everything else comes with practice. Good luck on your game dev journey, hope to play more of your jam games in the future!

This game has a lot of juice! A fair warning, it's quite hard as you die in one hit - I would prefer a health bar so I have more room for mistakes.

Graphics are excellent, music is fine but it got buggy at one level, started skipping.

Not the most inventive application of theme but it works.
