Very good pixel art, it look me a little while to realize that there were three "collumns" of building and you have to keep each powered by their respective cables. Some kind of timer to show how long I lasted would be a great addition. The kite physics were impressive.
Very fun game, the graphics and sounds work well together, it felt like I was playing a classic arcade game. Trying to line up the beams so that I could hit 2 enemies and one of their bullets got a little annoying but I felt good when I pulled it off.
Solid game, like the risk/reward aspect to it. Interesting tutorial but I didn't realize there was a timer until 2/3 of the way through my first game.
This game looks excellent and it was pretty enjoyable though it didn't really go with the "Running out of Power theme" once I won I liked trying out new actions and seeing what would happen such as 'Scream' and 'Die'. @gmfk07 I won by (spoilers) looking through her phone and finding bipolar related notes and texts.
Very fun and well balanced game, the explosion sound effect was good early on if you weren't paying attention to the whole map got got annoying after a while. I like the addition of the leader board I got about 70K points and was in 2nd place globally if 1st place wasn't 100k points ahead of me I might have been motivated to try again.
@hoogmin @pixelgriffin Esc key is supposed quit to menu not exit the entire game. You can also only quit to menu when it says you can (such as at the end of a round). I have not had issues with it quitting at the end of a round but if that is the case for anyone else please tell me.
Looks very good, was a very fun game with lots of fun exploration, managed to get all gems and embraced the light, got super intense in the late game, it felt like there were hoards of enemies in every direction. I wish there were enemies that did more than walk towards you and had trouble reading my health and gem count in the low ceiling ice came, love the way music fades in for the dungeons. Overall a great game and by far the best compo I have played so far.
EDIT: Still good game but lowered my overall rating due to the dev's abuse of the system by leaving 90+ reviews in under 2 hours and not leaving a single comment, almost certainly did not actually play any of those games.
Managed to get all the endings. This is a pretty good but simple game, good artwork.
Hearing all the voice acted sound effects go off with 10+ balls on screen is hilarious. It gets super hard very quickly. The rapid screen background changing bothered me when the game started to ramp up.
Can you beat my highscore of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngKT3MIfwpo ?
Really good game. Took me a game to really figure out how it worked but then it clicked for me. I like how you can get more eggs by clicking on the hut to speed up the early game for experienced players.
Some critters, I find, are far worse than other, the ghost is far better than the spiky one, so it does feel luck based sometimes. But all the deaths are preventable if you are just fast enough. Would be interesting to watch some Starcraft pro play this game.
Good use of the theme, really like the graphics and sound, wish there was some music. Overall a great game.
Pretty fun, tried easy mode first and got stuck slowly tapping Q for a minute. Does feel pretty luck based as not all mini games are made equally, (The jumping over axe one is WAY more difficult than the spider stomping one). I wish that the key you were supposed to press for each game was posted in the square, I often forgot which game needed which key. Made it about 75% of the way through hard mode.
A lot of fun, great music and sound, decent art, and bunch of good jokes. But it did feel like levels 1-5 were quite easy and 6 was hard. Though ability 4 was pretty useless. Not sure if its because i played in a ~740 ~1080 resolution but sometimes enemies were to far to the left and right and I couldn't see them. Overall a very good and humorous game.
Interesting game, I sometimes found it frustrating trying to click on the end of a tendril and missing a few times and am still not quite sure what the fail condition is, I assume it has to do with a certain number of tendrils going off screen.
This game has a really good atmosphere and connecting tendrils is satisfying, I only managed to score 40 after several attempts.
The second I've seen called "Too Many Cook!" that becomes crazier the longer it goes on.
I have surpassed Myself! https://imgur.com/fvAva4a thank you for the feedback so far, I would like to see more people sharing their highscores though. Current Highscore is by me with 1370 points.
Thanks for the feedback @Chipmonkey did you find hiding in a corner and just eating power-ups to be the most effective strategy score-wise? I tried to discourage that by making it so that enemies will shoot at you outside of the borders and by making getting kills to be the only way to score points.
Very difficult game, only managed to get 65 points after several attempts. I like the wide arrangement of tools you are given to deal with the attackers, wish I had some breathing room to set up defenses between the hordes of enemies. Wish I didn't have to close out of the game and open it back up every time I died. Overall pretty fun, but gets too difficult too quickly for me.
Satisfying sounds and music, nice graphics, clever concept, and hats are a nice touch. I put more far more time into this game than any other one so far. Gameplay is fun for the first couple of games.
I enjoy the triple usage of the "The more you have the worse it is" theme. 1. The more papers you have the slower you more, 2. the more written pages you have the more enemies come after you, 3. The more written pages you have/ dashes used the shorter your range is.
I have found that the best strategy is actually pretty boring. I go around the map and collect the amount of papers equal to the score I want (I first write 10-15 pages to speed up this project,) then pick up a writing power-up, then run from enemies and dash whenever they get close to me, never attacking. I managed to get 63 points doing this before running out of pencil from dashing so much https://imgur.com/a/fFtuZ
I found that in the late game I would be overrun and forced to dash instead of fighting back since attacking the horde just slowed down the people in front and it would just give me more papers which would slow me down more which would make me fight more and this cycle would repeat until I mis-timed a swing.
I recommend that you lower the rate at which enemies spawn and lower their health but instead make them faster the more paper you have so that the late game would be more of a challenge of timing rather than endurance.
