Pet the Damn Cat! by Deprecat 2022-10-07T01:51:41Z ♥ 1

Very cute game, love the concept, art, and audio! I tried downloading the Windows build but it's just the .exe file - you'll need to zip the entire build folder and upload that instead. The Web build is very good though, excellent work!

Ten To Zero by FlowerBadger 2022-10-06T09:22:51Z ♥ 1

Ok so I downloaded the flickgame_.zip file, opened it, was confused why it was a basic paint editor, pressed help, and eventually figured out that flickgame is the name of a program used to make 'flickgames' in which you click on certain colors of an image to jump to different frames. YOUR flickgame is actually linked at the top. I got to the thank you for playing screen, so yay!

Hard to judge this since the rules and mechanics for the game are just pre-defined by the program you are using. It was... fine, overall. I think some more intricate puzzle solving would help spice it up rather than having to just click on everything until you find the right color. Good work nonetheless!

The Only Way Is Forward by Fabian Denter 2022-10-06T08:39:13Z ♥ 1

I totally agree with what everyone else has said here - the atmosphere is top notch and even the there's not really any gameplay the level of polish makes it stand out for a Compo entry. Your storytelling had me hooked into your world and invested in what would happen, it's quite the experience! Very impressive!

Bug Zapper by Diego Escalante 2022-10-06T08:09:32Z ♥ 1

Had fun with this one, died on wave 28. I could tell the pressure was increasing by about 1 additional targeted bee each wave later on since I missed 1 bee, then 2, 3, and 4+ on consecutive rounds. There's just too many to re-target at that point. Still, not a bad way to force an ending on an otherwise endless game. Very satisfying shooting/zapping sfx, circle of light, and particles to really sell the impact of the targeted bugs! Great tutorial to start the game too. Shows that even a super basic game can shine with the right polish, nice work!

Gravity by Asue 2022-10-05T20:23:11Z ♥ 1

I'm in agreement with pretty much everyone else here, the art and audio are excellent but the gameplay could use a touch-up. My recommendation would be to have a check to see if the player has been free-floating for more than like, 5-10 seconds, and if that's the case then either: A - Spawn a planet in front of them with at least a second of safety to respond to asteroids B - Have an asteroid come and kill the player immediately. Basically making it so you HAVE to aim your shots toward nearby planets in order to survive

Other than that little critique, very nicely done!

Weighty Weenie by Joshua Pitaniello 2022-10-05T20:07:36Z ♥ 1

Funny concept and good art but the controls really need a re-work. I don't know what was intended but it seems like I could only grab ingredients early on while standing right next to them, and it felt kinda buggy. Then you mostly just have to push ingredients around with your shlong for the rest of the game, which actually worked fairly decently. The directions of WASD should not change based on rotation though. Nice job having the recipe be random each time, that threw me for a loop on my second attempt!

Cartesian Planes by Nicholas Maddalena 2022-10-04T00:49:23Z ♥ 0

Got a final score of 10 after a couple of failed attempts. RNG can really help or harm you I feel like, but overall the concept is solid and well executed. Nice work!

TENET SECONDS by MoebiusMeow 2022-10-03T23:09:15Z ♥ 1

Audio and visuals are on point here, and the puzzle design is quite solid as well! As its been mentioned, teaching the mechanics could have been done better as there was definitely some initial confusion. I didn't solve puzzle 10 but the solution from your video makes perfect sense. Only thing I found genuinely frustrating was the interactions between the 2 characters, particularly on level 9. I would often press jump and only one of them would actually jump due to some quirk in the system. Still, fantastic game!

Iron Sword Tournament by Jackaljk 2022-10-03T09:59:43Z ♥ 1

Very fun game, and for me that's the number one most important thing! The vocal music track is excellent and the animation tells are good, although I'm not quite fast enough to properly react. Had to relay on spam clicking to get through the last few opponents. Other than that, excellent work!

Endless Duel by goldenXD 2022-10-03T05:45:40Z ♥ 1

Solid artwork, I like the little reticle mouse cursor, it really helps the experience. The shooting was very smooth and satisfying as well. I think there's a bit too much bloom/glow effect on everything, and a little more variety of mechanics would help the gameplay. Nice work overall!

That Time My Dog Got Space Hiccups by nanolotl 2022-10-03T05:34:10Z ♥ 1

Love the artwork, and the gameplay is smooth and easy to understand for a jam game. Nicely done!

What's Under The Teapot? by thegamearchitect 2022-10-03T04:06:40Z ♥ 8

One of the few games in which 10 seconds feels too long, haha. It was a bit too easy

Baseball Kid & The Nightmare Dimension by Untitled Studios 2022-10-03T01:56:49Z ♥ 0

Very solid game! The intro is funny, the tutorial is baked into the gameplay well, the art is clean and easy to read, and the effects are satisfying. Excellent work!

Chrono Extractors by tengusheath 2022-10-03T01:41:19Z ♥ 1

The pixel art animations look great and the gameplay is smooth, if not a bit slow. I played it twice and enjoyed seeing my strategy evolve and do better! It seems like no matter what though the endless swarm will take over. The lack of a game over screen feels kind of cool in a way, like this is the alien's planet now.

Space Lord X by CrociDB 2022-10-03T01:20:34Z ♥ 1

Nice pixel art! Very simple and easy to grasp concept. Resetting to the beginning after a single death is a little frustrating though. Made it to level 6.

LoopTown by Pandamander 2022-10-03T01:11:54Z ♥ 0

Love the artwork and background music, very solid submission given that you scrapped your original!

Groovy Wars by Aryaman 2022-10-03T00:59:06Z ♥ 1

The music is excellent and the graphics are nice! It took me a bit to realize the concept and how to play, and the 2nd player seemed to not control properly and get pushed out of the map sometimes. Might've been more fun if I had a friend to try it out with. Nice work overall :)

Pecto by rodel77 2018-12-26T00:53:19Z ♥ 1

Nice Game! I'm not a huge fan of randomness though, my strategy ended up being to upgrade the Sacrifis card and always have a 90% chance at getting 5 more cards with which to farm more crystals. I hit the 10% chance at one point and my whole hand got destroyed, forcing me to restart the run. All in all though, pretty fun! I know you are aware the Exspectans card isn't working, but for me it DID work, it just didn't delete it from my hand. So I was able to click "Use" and then "Cancel", and freeze monsters forever basically, lol

Useful Corpses by Zanzlanz 2018-12-25T21:36:34Z ♥ 1

Some of the levels were pretty annoying in design but otherwise the game plays well and looks nice!

Save the Wabbit (VR) by saoi-games 2018-12-25T20:47:36Z ♥ 0

I don't know if I'm missing something here or what. All the comments say it's a good VR game, but the game description itself says it's unfinished and there's a LOT of problems here. Don't get me wrong here, the game definitely has potential to be good, but it really just throws you into the game without explaining anything, and when you inevitably die on your first round within the first minute there's no way to reset without closing the game. I do like the assets and the VR controls, but pretty much everything has been imported and is not original. So good attempt, and better luck next time!

SPLIT_SHOT by static ddq 2018-12-25T20:15:35Z ♥ 0

There's definitely a bug where sometimes no enemies will spawn and the wave is not complete-able, and it seems to just happen randomly. I also couldn't seem to hit anything with the sword/scythe power-up equipped, even if I was ramming my ship head first into an enemy the little blue scythe did no damage. Not a bad little LD game though.

Train Of Fire by Remco 2018-12-06T17:52:48Z ♥ 1

Took me a minute to realize why the train kept stopping until I read about the fuel mechanic in the description. The game has potential, but needs a lot of work in the level design department.

The Making Of by Silvae 2018-12-05T09:56:16Z ♥ 1

I got 1st in all the categories, is that some sort of bug? Jk. In truth I really liked this entry, although it would've been nice if you could cut a task short in order to eat and sleep. The music section was really long and I lost to that a few times :P

Suicide Rabbits by m3rcurial92 2018-12-05T02:23:36Z ♥ 1

"Many rabbits were harmed in the making of this game"

The Missing Piece by comenoha 2018-12-05T02:04:01Z ♥ 1

Very solid entry! I beat all 16 levels and then the screen turned all white and I couldn't do anything, but other than that I didn't find any other problems, so well done!

Bloodmancer by Cipery 2018-12-04T09:43:37Z ♥ 1

Not bad, I played it for quite some time! But the level design was drawn out enough with everything looking the same that I got bored before I found all of the crystals. I really like the particle effects, they look awesome!

Bottomless God by Thewerebean 2018-12-04T09:16:27Z ♥ 1

Not a bad little game, I do want to point out that the controls for a controller say to use a joystick, but I was only able to move with the D-Pad.

HoldOn by Eresia 2018-12-04T08:51:30Z ♥ 2

Beautiful and really creative game, I love it! I would say though that since the game gets more and more difficult the more buttons you have to hold, I wouldn't increase the speed over time as it makes it near impossible at a certain point. I would also put a quit button on your main menu so you don't have to force close the game. Otherwise though, really well done!

ALL HE CAN EAT by rehawk 2018-12-04T08:38:25Z ♥ 1

I agree with what's been said already, the game looks fantastic, but doesn't have any way to pause or quit which is annoying. The time limit to get the head stuff is very short, and every time you fail the screen shakes more and more until it's just not fun to play. Also the objects are really small and hard to see, which makes finding the right one even harder than it should be. Great concept, but it could definitely use some polish.

Doesn't Add Up by Virtual Window 2018-04-27T18:00:49Z ♥ 1

Great job on this game, I had a lot of fun playing it! Here is a bit of feedback: - The shooting is nice and responsive, but it took me awhile to figure out how to reload, and I'm sill not sure what the multiplier does - The background music is good, but is a bit too peaceful considering the premise of the game - The sound effects for shooting the gun were totally out of place and weird, and a there should probably be a subtle "Successful Hit" sound effect to cue the player that they've hit the target - The animated 3D Models of the creatures were really well done (I'm guessing that's more your team's specialty) but the environment wasn't particularly interesting. Perhaps instead of making so many creature models, just make a couple good ones and focus your time in other areas of the project. Quality over quantity and all that.

Overall, not bad at all! Nice work 👍

Cardey (VR Only) by shadowbrain 2018-04-27T17:26:10Z ♥ 0

I finally got my VR setup and this is one of the first things I played! I like the game but it's much too difficult. I think it would make sense to teleport to the card's position when it lands so that you can move closer to the hole over time like in mini-golf. This is basically trying to get a hole-in-one every single time, lol. I averaged around 40 throws per hole until I got to level 6 where I threw over 100 and called it quits

On The Fly by qkjosh 2018-04-27T00:26:48Z ♥ 1

Absolutely beautiful game, it's hard to believe this was done in such a short amount of time!

Fail Fast Co. by hunz 2018-04-26T23:49:36Z ♥ 2

Maybe it's partially because I haven't really played many management games, but I found this game to be VERY difficult to understand. Other than a wall of text explaining the rules, you are just kinda thrown into things with little to no indication of what to do. I think that having 5 different resources to manage, 4 different categories of cards with varying uses, *and* multiple building types with different functions is just too much complexity thrown at the player at once. Also, it's a bit confusing asking the player to "Fail Fast" while also calling the end screen a "Game Over". If all games end in a game over and I want to fail the fastest isn't the best strategy just to skip 5 actions and get fired immediately? Overall, I'd say your concept is good but for the quick play-ability of a typical LD game a lot of content would need to be cut/re-worked.

Gun Appetit! by Nyunesu 2018-04-26T00:58:29Z ♥ 0

Fun game, but stopping to drag all of the ingredients in order was pretty annoying, especially because the zombies randomly spawn in from the sides of the map so it's almost never safe to stop. I think a more elegant way of cooking might be to just have a list of recipes that you can reference (maybe even as a part of the player hud), and then the player has to walk to each of the ingredients required and interact with each food station, only pausing briefly at each one. On a positive note though, the game has beautiful art and the fluidity of the movement/controls is excellent, so nice job overall!

Toodee and Topdee by voxel 2018-04-25T19:37:01Z ♥ 1

I'm jealous that I didn't think of this, I love this game! Easily one of my favorite entries thus far 😄👍

Crowdsurf by Joe Cowman 2018-04-25T18:20:07Z ♥ 1

This is an excellent idea for a game! However, I'm terrible at improvising and failed horribly, haha

Basketball Wars by Samuel Henderson 2018-04-24T20:46:35Z ♥ 1

Not a bad little game! I'm not sure what you used to make the 3D Models but if you want to improve the quality in the future a quick improvement would be to increase your polygon count on round objects (like the basketball) and add bevels to hard edges like on the gun. Graphics aside though, your game is fun, so good work 👍

Crafty by Brackeys 2018-04-24T17:52:27Z ♥ 0

I've seen a couple variations of this game in the past, and this felt like more of the same exact thing... but I liked the added touch of an overall story and a way to win the game without finding every single combination :)

Ditto on what CrispyPear said

Cardcade by Simon Rahnasto 2018-04-24T17:00:53Z ♥ 3

As a big fan of dungeon crawlers and rouge-like games, I have a bit of a soft spot for games like this. That said, VERY well done! For me, the customized deck-building at the beginning is an amazing feature as you can essentially play the game however you want and form new strategies as you play. I'm impressed with how much content you managed to squeeze in and how functionally everything works together in such a short amount of time! Mad props to your team 👍

Gender Circles by EkkoEkko 2018-04-24T05:25:37Z ♥ 2

I'm amazed at how simple this game is, and yet it's really fun to play! I put so much time into 3D modeling assets for my game, and then you just have a couple of sprites which could be drawn in Photoshop (or even paint!) in a few minutes tops, and you made something really entertaining out of it, so great work 👍

The Mad Bulleteer by Diego Escalante 2018-04-24T05:08:50Z ♥ 0

This right here is proof that games don't need good graphics, I had a lot of fun playing it! Nice work 👍

Beat Em Shmup by CaptainDreamcast 2018-04-24T04:18:45Z ♥ 1

When I realized that you were literally punching enemies and bullets in a shmup game I was 100% on board, the gameplay is admittedly a bit weak but I'll vouch for you on Innovation and Humor!

Maze Ship by GeroX 2018-04-24T04:06:33Z ♥ 0

I agree with BitJester, I just quit at level 3. The game got pretty dull, with just a lot of aimless wandering around and backtracking

Catching Crazy by Burgee 2018-04-24T03:57:17Z ♥ 3

I like the mechanics of the game quite a bit, but found it incredibly difficult to find pieces of evidence. The most pieces I had was 3, and that was after about a dozen attempts without finding anything at all (or finding something and not having time to collect it). Maybe if you expanded the viewable area while digging just a little

Highway Trouble by Code Dream 2018-04-24T01:30:48Z ♥ 1

Same problem here as Wesruv and Artem, no .exe file for Windows

Reverse by MrJake7X 2018-04-24T00:47:11Z ♥ 4

As many have already noted, the art style is on point! The background music is pretty good too, although the sound effects definitely leave something to be desired. My biggest criticism would have to be the controls, which had me switching from mouse in the UI, to keyboard for the game, and then to controller when I couldn't figure out that the double arrow symbol meant 'Tab'. But pausing using a controller doesn't work, and once I pressed escape on the keyboard I had to use the mouse to click "Back to Menu". All in all though, not a bad start!

Tower Defense Dating Simulator by Killian 2018-04-23T19:19:22Z ♥ 0

I like the concept of this one a lot, and the 3D models look pretty decent! It would be nice if there was some sort of visual indication of which gifts the towers like, and the character moved pretty slow, but other than that I had fun :)

The Matter at Hand by Chaseplays 2018-04-23T18:59:53Z ♥ 1

This definitely feels like a finished (if not short) game I could find published on a game site somewhere. Very clean and polished other than the lack of sound effects. Well done! 👍

Meteor Horror by Guvitron 2018-04-23T18:34:17Z ♥ 1

I found a sweet-spot right under the starting platform to block all incoming meteors Screenshot.png That is... until the giant meteor shows up. That thing should NOT be heat seeking, lol. I died almost every time it came on screen

The humans kept starving to death before my first plants grew, not sure if I missed something there. Really like the humor of this one though!

Spaceloop by smilewood 2018-04-23T17:21:53Z ♥ 0

I don't understand how this is part 'Roguelike' if the map isn't procedurally generated... The only part that's somewhat Roguelike is the perma-death, but lots of other games have that and don't fit the genre.

Idle Shooter by NicMagnier 2018-04-23T17:07:15Z ♥ 0

Having piles upon piles on money explode everywhere is IMMENSELY satisfying, well done! This was really fun to play, all it needs is some old western type background music!

Legion Academy (LD41) by LegionGames 2018-04-23T16:34:42Z ♥ 1

I found myself with the same problem where attacks would always miss due to the enemies moving, I think an easy fix would be a larger projectile. The pen that you shoot can really thread the needle between those sheets of paper! Otherwise not a bad concept 👍

Stoical Domination by Colin Misbach 2018-04-23T05:03:42Z ♥ 2

Took me a bit to find the controls, but the game is rather straightforward and easy to play once you know what to do. Not bad 👍

Hey, your itch.io link is down, I had the same issue and I had to switch it from 'draft' to 'pulished'

Deck Cutters: Hearth of the Cards by Steve Sparkes 2018-04-23T04:25:58Z ♥ 1

I loved the concept and the execution of this idea, the music was really good too! One suggestion would be to have cards that are applied to yourself either be a different color or just use them up automatically. I can't even count the number of times I threw a card across the map only to realize, "right, now I have to go pick that up". lol

Dungeon Drifter by TwinGhosts 2018-04-23T02:58:16Z ♥ 1

I really liked the look and feel of this one, only wish that there were some sound effects for shooting and killing enemies!

Slime Garden by Flameo326 2018-04-23T02:50:48Z ♥ 0

I played this for awhile just out of curiosity of what happens, but gave up after because I found the game too repetitive. (Also because a bunch of slimes stacked up on each other and the attack sound they made with their powers combined was painful to the ears!)

Drive or Die by bradur 2018-04-23T02:19:55Z ♥ 1

A bit of feedback: - The car drifts a bit too much, it feels more like a block of ice, haha - Enemies give no indication of where they are coming from and spawn it at weird intervals, making the 1st person pretty annoying. They should come from around buildings (walking before shooting) or have sounds/particle effects when spawning to help guide the player to where they are - The Minimap is great 👍 - The road should be raised just a hair above the grass to remove the black clipping lines where the objects overlap
