It's very polished. I noticed several areas that you put extra effort into (like the screen shake in the beginning, and the use of shaders for lighting and black outlines). I'll checkout the post compo version as well to see what you've added.
Nice Game, it looks like you have a pretty good foundation, I was happy to see that you're going to keep working on it. I think adding some transparency to the description boxes and also adding some background to the stats UI would make the game look a lot more polished. You can update the description boxes by deleting the edges of the art in a photo editor and then setting the material to cutout mode within unity.
Lots of fun! Really neat submission. I enjoy rabbit hole ARGs like these. My only gripe is that for one of the bits of the puzzle (trying to avoid spoilers here) you have to actually have a twitter account so I had to make one just to finish the puzzle. Otherwise a fun experience! 059x894
Wow, being a math/physics guy I can tell you I loved this game! I would love even more to play against someone else rather than the computer. What a clever game. Awesome job.
Clever game! Really made me want to go back and play Papers Please again. Only critique would be that I think the game flow would feel better if you checked all the packages first, then put them on all on the truck. Putting the packages on the truck really disturbs the flow of the checking packages bit and makes it feel slower paced. Overall I enjoyed it quite a bit. Nice submission!
This was pretty fun. I like the idea of the boost rings helping you get further. I think the walls close in a little too fast though, it makes runs fairly short. I think if the runs were a bit longer and the number of obstacles increased over time it could be even more satisfying. I felt like the difficulty wasn't really increasing, but maybe that was a design choice.
I'm really bummed I couldn't seem to get this game to work for me. The clicking seemed only to make planets randomly. I would click and hold sometimes and nothing would happen, other times a planet would start increasing in size when I let go and I couldn't get it to stop. I do still like the idea of this game, and I'll try playing it again soon, to see if I can get it working.
Wow this game is great. It gets really tough really fast. The only thing that irked me during the game was when I'd be happily moving a block along and one would just spawn right next to another of the same color and all of a sudden I couldn't move that way anymore. Other than that I think it was great. I love how brain burn-y it gets when there are lots of blocks on the screen. So much fun, fantastic job.
This game is really nice! It plays great, the forklift controls great, I love the simple gameplay loop, and keeping everything organized on the floor is satisfying. The movement of the forklift kind of reminds me of playing Stephen's sausage roll, especially when the floor fills up, because controlling the forklift well becomes super important at that point. This was a great entry! Nicely done!
Great game. It was a little confusing at first, but once I got the hang of the strategy I was grouping my characters together to optimize the defense score and I was grabbing crystal tiles whenever I could so I could spawn more wizards. There were an awkward few turns where the map was split in 2 pieces, but after that I found and opening and rushed in for the win. It had an impressive amount of polish for a game jam game. I'd be curious to hear more details about how you used blockchain for the AI. If you're so inclined please send me an email at apc1993@gmail.com
Good job, nice double use of the theme "Parking spaces in space". I like the spinning animation with the black hole (frustrating in a good way :) )
Very cute game! I like the art style and the simplicity of the gameplay. It is a bit of a finger twister, but it seems intended. Good work!
Cool idea! It was satisfying to balance cleaning the waste and building turrets. I like the art and the sound design. Nice work!
Wow, excellent job! Love the trippy visuals of rockets and debris floating all around the globe. Really cool distance blur effect. Also found the twitter feed quite entertaining. Fun and fits the theme too! My only nitpick is the How To screen is a little overwhelming.
Fun and interesting idea! I like how you can nudge the previous pieces with your current piece to correct past mistakes on easy mode. Great work!
Simple, fun, and satisfying! Very nice work, and fits the theme perfectly!
Cool game! I think the art of the blocks, the music, and sound effects jive well together. I found the movement controls sluggish, though.
The visuals are wonderful, and I love the machine learning aspect to this game. It was fun to watch the ragdoll physics and look at the beautiful environments. But (and this may be very intentional) I wished there was more of a structure or clear goal/win condition. I know the goal is to get the cows to grass, but there isn't much feedback on progress. However, an interesting and fun playground!
Cool idea! The camera jerking between turns was jarring. If it was a smooth transition that would help a lot. I like that it can be played entirely with mouse only. Nice low poly look, and fits the theme very well!
Fun! The double jump physics feel really nice. It felt a little like a rhythm game, learning patterns and improving each time I played. I did get to a point where the big pacman got stuck on the wall behind me after I escaped through the door, and I wasnt sure if the game ended or if it was a glitch.
Love the music too! Nice work!
I like that you decided to add dialog to this game. It makes the game a lot stronger. Overall it was fun, although the speed level was quite challenging.
I like this game a lot! The game feels really nice. The smooth movements in a grid based game were a nice touch. My only gripe would be that moving quickly made it kind of hard to tell where you would end up, since the movement is semi-fluid. Overall I really enjoyed it!
I enjoy sokoban games so this one was fun for me :) Puzzle games are my favorite. I liked the simplistic art style, it was really effective for the game, and this is a nice variation on the stereotypical sokoban style. I like how you have to manage the different block mechanics together.
The game was pretty cool. I liked the art, especially the character. It was really challenging, but in a good way! Great job.
Wow, what an awesome idea for the jam. The theme is really strong, and the multiplayer element is really smart.
The game is really fun, but having to restart from the beginning feels bad. I enjoyed playing it though, and did finally manage to beat all the levels. =)
I really enjoyed this game! The grappling hook in space feels so satisfying, and the difficulty is just right for me. Getting some of those keys was tough! It always felt good to finish each level. Fantastic job!
I like the effect of the spray, it looks really nice. The game feels really responsive which is good. I had fun running around in the game for awhile. I didn't feel like I fully understood what I was doing but I had a good time doing it.
This game is pretty fun! I like challenging arcade games like this, and I like how this games difficulty builds up over time in a natural curve. It feels very responsive which is nice! I like your menu page too!

This is a very unique game! I love challenging platformers, and I love the idea that every action you take is costing you. This is a very cool interpretation of the theme, and I really enjoyed playing it! Since you guys seem to like platformers you should check out ours!
Robo Portrait by finalspace 2019-05-04T03:54:17Z ♥ 1
This game looks and feels great. I had a great time playing. It made me think that it would be cool if you made a game where you can just try to mimic the picture as fast as possible. Like a free painting game with a timer and a tolerance rating that judges your performance on how close the final picture is to the result. Could lead to some hilarious results.
Flip Me Off! by Bob174 2019-05-01T06:55:41Z ♥ 3
I like this design a lot. It looks and sounds great and the controls feel nice. We also made a super-tough platformer you should try out if you get the chance!

This is incredibly impressive and unique. I would be very interested to know how you're doing this. The tolerance seems really forgiving but also intelligent. Very neat.

Guardian Sphere by Pixel-boy 2019-04-30T15:35:38Z ♥ 0
I love this art style! It reminds me of older classic games like battletoads and TMNT: Turtles in Time. Your title screen is amazing!
Return of the Roguelike by Azargaz 2019-04-30T15:32:10Z ♥ 1
Very neat game! I like the art style and the animation of the enemies is really nice, especially the slimes, I love their attack animation. Seems very polished so nice job!

Wow the art in this game seems really high quality. I like the puzzle mechanics and the final boss is very intimidating. Nice job!

Wow the webpage at the end is very neat! This whole game is very innovative, once I figured out how to balance myself I started really enjoying it. Well done!

Very cool! I love that you can walk on the blood as you spawn it. Very unique platforming mechanic. The player looks nice and the background art is great!
Ice Heart by TractorFarm 2019-04-29T22:52:26Z ♥ 0
Very interesting game! I struggled a bit with understanding what the purpose was beyond escaping the dungeons, and the controls were challenging, but the art and sound was really nice! The ice looked really beautiful.

Very funny! I loved the faces when they were being sprayed! Cool interpretation of the theme as well. Nice job!

I really enjoy the look of the art. At first it was very jarring, but it grew on me very quickly (especially the stairs).
Material Cube by chawls_v 2019-04-29T06:27:53Z ♥ 1
This game looks and sounds really nice! I especially love the animation that plays when the plug attaches to your head, and the sound effect is really satisfying. I noticed that the jumping mechanic can be abused with good timing. It seems that I can jump in open space without platforms if I time my jumps well. Overall a really good game!
