After losing for a few times it starts to be annoying, but I kept playing mainly for the moans of Glorplax. Input delay is one hell of both annoyance and challenge. The game isn't much, but I can't say I wasn't satisfied with beating it.
Short and fun. The controls are bit confusing at first, but it takes a try or two and you're all set. I like the graphics and the humour.
Really nice idea! The graphics are really nice and the music is fitting. Definitely fun.
I have a deep sentiment for tactical games (mostly because of X-COM), so I really enjoyed this one. There are a few bugs and the game lacks whatever statistics or ui one would expect. Also, the music is way to silent (had to turn my speakers almost to the max). But still, overall it is quite enjoyable.
Playing as a moustache... brilliant.
Hey, nice job! I liked the music and the graphics. The controls could use some work (like being able to hold keys) and people would be more of a challenge if they had some patrol routes, instead of just walking from side to side - but it's quite enjoyable overall.
I laughed out loud seeing this. Great, humorous idea. The gameplay itself wasn't anything special, but the sheer fun of being Captain Torrent made it definitely worth the time.
It takes quite a long time for the first pickups to appear, but that aside, it is a very nice little game. I really liked the music. All together, it gives a very nice, warm feel.
Movement speed is so slow I almost fell asleep. Also, my game ended when the sheep respawned in the fenced pen, as I could not get inside.
Interesting idea. The balance is quite off, to it takes time to get some results. Overall, nice entry.
"YOU ran it from .... the command line >;O.. sweet ;D"
Hell yeah terminal. The idea is quite nice, so are the graphics. Crashes when losing, but overall, it's not bad.
Apart from no guards or whatever enemies one could imagine in a game like this, it is really pleasant to play.
Simple, yet very enjoyable. With some nice sound and a higher difficulty, this would be a very good game to spend a few minutes every now and then.
Really nice! The gameplay is very simple and quite enjoyable. I really like the graphics, they certainly took some sweet time. Music is fine too. Although I'd say movement speed is far too slow, it's getting tedious watching your character slowly strolling across the screen.
Quite nice. A shame it's so short (or hell, maybe I did something wrong?), but overall, leaves a good impression. The theme doesn't become apparent until the very ending, but it strikes hard and gives this dystopian feel that I so much enjoy.
I like the race concept, brings back memories of old games. The controls were bit hard to grasp at first. The audio is simple, yet very fitting. Good work on the balance, it took a few tries to win.
Took me some time to figure out how to place a clown, but generally it's okay. Not much to look at, but hey, it works! (Well, apart from audio, at least for me).
Very nice! With the amount of robots wandering about, bullets flying and running speed, this is just total mayhem. And mayhem is fun. Loading time could definitely use some work, though. And personally I'd made it a bit harder - I think it would be even more enjoyable if a single playthrough was shorter, thus allowing to have more chances at the high score in the same amount of time.
Is there any winning condition? Cause I brought all the villages down to 0 points and nothing happened. Could also use some sound effects when displaying messages. Other than that, quite cool.
Awesome! Although I must say that only after reading the comments did I realize that running away from mother was the game core - I thought it was about wreaking as much havoc, without angering mommy, as possible. The pixart graphics are really nice.
Too little interaction!
Funny and silly; shame it's so short.
Don't let the seemingly unsophisticated simplicity fool you, this one is addictively fun.
Small, simple, and quite enjoyable. Shame there was no sound (at least on my pc).
Brilliant. Could use some more polish, but it's still a useful tool - and fun to use, too!
Interesting idea, although it would be much more fun if it had some nice graphics (like, say, animated models of elements in stock) and the element table could be displayed inside the game. Not really a game, but a very nice idea for an edutainment application.
Linux binary is 64-bit, so if you're running a 32-bit system like me, you're out of luck unless you try building from source.
Controls are hard, but the gameplay is very enjoyable. Needs some more polish - it's possible to move outside the screen and there's no negative point limit - but other than that, it's a very nice, complete and pleasant entry.
Needs a bit of grinding between two planets at start, but gets pretty fun after that. Could use a warning when one's about to their last fuel on a trip to a planet that doesn't sell fuel. But other than that, a really cool entry.
Quite fun. The collision boxes are bit too large and it's easy to die, and the music gets repetitive quite soon. But other than that, it's a really nice and fun entry. The graphic style is interesting and pleasant to the eye.
The audio and graphics are fine, but unfortunately the gameplay gets repetitive and boring really quick. But I must say, I loved the "deliver to Null planet" message after finishing a level. ;)
Very nice and simple idea. The graphics and music are very polished and fit well with the game. The difficulty was okay for me - not too hard, but still posing a challange. Needs more levels! Very fun, ends too quick. :)
The idea is okay, although the game lacks polish. It is possible to walk outside the map, collecting chests isn't required to grab the exit, and apart from running around times and times again there's no way to tell where is the exit. With some extra work, it could be quite fun.
Sorry, Linux, but 32-bit.
Great little game! Very interesting gameplay idea. Just a shame there's so few levels. Also the menus are partly obscured by the title if you run the game in low resolution (I used 1280x800).
A neat little entry. Weirdly relaxing. Mastering the throws is difficult, but rewarding. Nice job.
A really good entry. The graphics style is very pleasant to the eye and the music makes for a nostalgic atmosphere. The story is simple, but still engaging. Good job!
Enjoyable, minimalistic style. The gameplay is simple and intuitive. Good job!
Meme overload. Overall it's quite a nice game, just a shame there's only two minigames.
A ridiculous interpretation of the theme leading to a ridiculously fun to play game.
Just plain awesome. I really liked the fact that the game plays on a single map - it's just amazing how each time the Mr. Blob enlarges, the level, despite staying the same, plays totally different. The graphics and audio fit together nicely, and create a very homely atmosphere. I love it!
Hey @superpokeunicorn, could you post the source on GitHub, maybe? I know it's available on itch.io, but having it on GH would make it easier to contribute. :)
Oh man, this is so cute I gotta check my blood sugar. The art style is very pleasant, and the concept of washing dirty ~~kitties~~ meowmies is adorable. It's fascinating how such simple gameplay can be so appealing! The game was a bit hard - it took me a long time to get past level 5, but even then, it wasn't really frustrating. Overall, this is a very, very solid entry. Amazing job!
The low-rez graphics make it a bit hard to figure out what's happening at first, but once you get it, it's a lovely little game. I liked that there's different types of towers and how you have to keep running through your camp and activating the towers. The game sometimes experiences slowdowns when there's lots of bullets on the screen, but that's a minor issue. Overall - well done!
Good game. The audio and graphics fit together nicely, and the gameplay itself is easy to grasp and enjoyable. My only complaint would be about the lack of difficulty scaling - I was able to reach 1500 points and frankly, by that time I got a bit bored. The game could, for example, speed up slowly over time, to make it more challenging. Either way, this is a very fun entry.
Very fun and interesting concept, giving a chance to play around with some physics. The controls are a bit hard to use, especially when there's multiple thrusters on a single object.
A simple idea making for an interesting gameplay. Having to avoid NPCs and manage the equipment at the same time proves quite challenging. Could use some audio and some visual cues on what's happening.
Good game. The visual style is great - a shame there isn't any audio to match. The gameplay is rather confusing at first; some kind of tutorial level would definitely help ease the learning curve.
Nice game. The visuals are very nice, and the music fits right in, creating a very soothing atmosphere. The gameplay is enjoyable, it's just a shame that the game is so short. Otherwise, good job.
Awesome. The scoring is a bit hard to grasp at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's a very entertaining game.
A very solid game. The audio and visuals fit together nicely and create a really nice atmosphere. The puzzles are often quite treacherous, with the solutions turning out to be so easy that you feel like an idiot for taking so long. I had a blast playing this.
The game is enjoyable, but the mechanics are very simple, and that makes it rather uninteresting past finishing it one time. The graphics are nice, but the lack of sound makes it a bit boring. Also, it took me a while to discover that the map extends past the viewport and you can drag it - this could be explained on the title screen.
Really nicely done! The graphics are cute and the music and sound effects fit right in to create a cuddly, homely atmosphere. The puzzles themselves display a good skill curve. My only complaint is "more levels plx"!
A very solid entry. The overall quality is great, and the game is really fun to play. Highly recommended.
A small game with a short session length. The graphics are okay, and the sound effects fit them nicely. I played the web version on itch.io and it feels like the viewport size is messed up a bit, as e.g. the time is not fully visible. Also, I managed to push the enemy over the floating box to the right and that didn't count as a win.
The game surely lives up to its name! Prepare yourself to be relentlessly, mercilessly trolled by the RNG, as it decides to spawn a random block just where you wanted to drop your piece.
A nice entry, but way too hard. I like the procedural generation of levels - allows you to try again and again until you master the controls, or roll an easier level. It's a bit of a shame there's no game over screen, and that there isn't any sound apart from the music, but either way, it's a fun entry.
Simple idea with a nice execution. The levels are treacherous, which combined with no checkpoints makes the game a bit frustrating, since you can't re-try the moment you died on - you have to go all the way from the beginning. But I like that, it makes the game more of a hard-core challenge. The music is nice and the visuals create an enjoyable atmosphere.
It's a shame there's no sound, because otherwise this would be a solid compo entry. A good pick for people who enjoy the Dwarf Fortress kind of challenge - because losing is fun!
I like this game. The gameplay is simple and engaging. The tempo is quite fast, but I think it's a good thing - it encourages the player to just keep on running, rather than take it slow and devise tactics. My main complaint is that enemy spawns don't take the player's current position into account, so it's totally possible to have an enemy spawn right in front of your face - there should be some minimum distance that has to be kept between the monster and the player.
The visuals are really nice, but holy smokes, the difficulty! The gameplay quickly goes from engaging to outright frustrating. Apart from that, a really good job.
Fun little game. The concept is very nice, and the art is very pleasant to the eye. There are some minor bugs (e.g. sometimes I could not build on empty squares, and some squares stayed protected after the beacons were destroyed), but it's still playable and enjoyable.
Simple and fun. The red blocks should spawn a lot higher, as when you jump up, you can actually jump past the spawn height. Other than that, it's a solid, fun little entry.
On the first playthrough, this game seems rather simplistic. However, the more you play, the more you discover the various intricacies to this game's mechanics. Though you don't need to be a master strategist to win, there's a lot of content that strategists will find to their liking. Don't let the graphics fool you - this game is bigger than it appears on the surface.
The art style is interesting, but the game itself is a complete mystery to me. I've tried it four times and I still have no idea what to do. Do I need to find a certain combination of items? I noticed I can select an item using keys 1-3, but there isn't any way to actually use them. If I stay outside, sometimes my items are not taken away at midnight. Also - damn, I don't know where this prison is located, but it's already dark as hell by 2pm. **:P**
Quite enjoyable, but it's a shame there's only a few levels. The final boss fight was rather boring. Also the game would be much more enjoyable if it had some audio. Overall, it's not bad, but a bit underwhelming.
Really good. The art style is very pleasant to the eye, and the music really heats you up for battle. The enemies are quite tough, but well, that's to be expected of a bullet hell game. A very solid entry. Good job!
_whoops double post_
_yay, triple post - thanks, ISP_
Simple concept with neat execution. It's a shame the game doesn't present much of a challenge, as the box drops don't seem to speed up, so you can basically play forever.
Wow, this was unexpectedly deep. There's not much in terms of gameplay, but since this is basically a visual novel, that's not an issue. The graphical design is smooth and pleasant, the music also fits each memory very well. There were a couple typos, but that's a minor issue. Overall, I'm impressed with your take on the theme and the overall quality.
Kinda like the Pandemic games, except that as far as I can see, there's no real way to lose apart from making stupid choices. While the game doesn't provide much of a challenge, it's main advantage is its absurd sense of humour and funny graphics style. Good for a chuckle.
Cute - cute, I tell you! I think it could use a time limit or some other mechanic for extra challenge, since currently the gameplay, while enjoyable, isn't very varied. The art style is adorable.
The controls are tragic - having to wait for the robot to go through an accelerate-decelerate motion every time you want to move a tile is just painful, especially when combined with the fact that you can't just hold a key to go into a certain direction - you have to tap it again and again. The visuals are very nice and the music is pleasant; relaxing, even. There's not much to the gameplay, which is a shame, because once again - from an audio-visual point of view, this is quite a solid entry.
A really nice and simple shooter. It's a real shame there isn't any audio, as that'd make the game way more fun. I like the art style.
Neat little game. The visuals are simplistic, but together with the slightly ominous music, create a nice style. The puzzles are interesting, just a shame there isn't more of them. Overall, a very enjoyable game.
And hello to a fellow Fedora user. :wink:
Nice entry. The core gameplay is rather simple, but still very satisfying. The visuals and the audio fit together nicely and create a relaxing atmosphere. Good job!
It took me a while to understand how picking up items works, but once that's out of the way, it's quite an enjoyable game. The AI, while simplistic, can still sometimes put up a challenge. If you feel like making a post-compo version, this could turn out to be a very interesting game.
Yeah, robot cowboys! The visuals are very nice, but the movement is a bit awkward and the scoring is a mystery to me. Still, for a 48h compo, this is a mighty fine entry in terms of overall quality.
Nice, I enjoyed it. The game is very simple gameplay-wise, but balancing all the resources takes some skill. It's a bit of a shame there isn't any goal apart from "survive the most days" - on Easy, I was able to find a safe setup where all off the resources were steadily rising. It would also be nice to be able to rotate the buildings. Still, those minor issues aside, this is a very solid entry. Good job!
If you know what a "line rider" is, then this game is basically the same concept, except you leave a bold trail behind, which blocks your movement. While the idea might be interesting, the execution is - unfortunately - rather poor, as there's no sound, the graphics are very minimal (and pixelated), and the overall feeling is one of "eh, as long as it works".
Nice and simple. The audio and graphics fit together nicely, creating a very retro atmosphere. The puzzles are quite fun, especially once Shadow Valdi appears. I really enjoyed this and I'd gladly play a version with more levels.
A great exercise in frustration, I gave up once my time spent in last level outweighed the previous 9 stages combined. The graphics and audio create a nice, consistent style. The stages are hard just enough to make you shout profanities and yet still want to keep going. Good job.
Nice game, I really enjoyed it! The only feature I've found missing was some kind of fast-forward once there are no more empty tiles. Still, this is really well-polished and extremely fun to play.
Small, simple, pleasant.
The controls are a bit tricky, since the character's movement is relative to where they're looking at (which means - where the mouse pointer is at), not relative to the room - but once you get used to that, it's a neat little game. I like the visual style. The music is very pleasant and rhythmic; the "announcer" also sounds cheerful and makes you want to play more. Really good job!
Fun little game. The gameplay is simple, yet challenging. The sounds make the game even more fun to play. I have to admit though, I didn't really find any connection with the compo theme.
I really enjoyed the art style. The gameplay itself is simple, but enjoyable. It took me a while to notice that the colour of the trail left by the head represents the health. Good job!
A rather standard Tyrian / Gradius clone. While the core gameplay is fine and quite enjoyable, the balance could use some work - after playing the game once or twice, it's easy to stay alive long enough to max out your weapon, and after that you're pretty much invincible, since the scrap metal (that you can use to repair your ship) from destroyed asteroids comes in so fast that you can heal yourself fifty times.
An interesting take on the classic formula a'la Icy Tower. Quite polished in terms of craftsmanship, but could use a bit more variance in the gameplay.
An interesting take on the theme. The mechanics, while simple, are rather unintuitive, so be sure to read the help screen before playing.
Nice and simple. I hope you'll continue working on this after the rating period is over.
Fun idea. The graphics and music are very pleasant and create a relaxing atmosphere. A neat little game.
One subtle bug I've found is that if a deer and a rabbit align when you take a shot, the game deducts a missed shot for each of them, so you can end up with a score of -1. **:)**
A fun game about mindlessly killing everything that moves, with an added element of an ever-shrinking play zone. With some bonus pick-ups and an achievement system this could very well be a full-fledged commercial game.
A very simple concept made into an extremely enjoyable game. The audio and visuals fit together like a charm, creating a relaxing, homely atmosphere. There are 18 levels total, and it's not nearly enough - well, enough for a 48h compo, but I just want more! I'd gladly throw some money at the author if they made a 100 level version. :)
"Oooh yeah". The gameplay is simple and enjoyable. The art style is very pleasant to the eye. Good job!
Interesting concept! The graphics are also quite nice. The gameplay, depending on one's perspective, can be seen as either very challenging, or very frustrating. The way the compo's theme is used in the game is just devilish - you WILL need to restart the game a few times before you'll be able to get all of it right.
Simple idea with a really nice execution. The visuals are very pretty and the music, uh, rocks. Good job!
Fun little puzzle game. The controls are a bit clunky, but once you get past that, it's very enjoyable. It's a shame there's no sound. I think it'd be nice to have little numbers flowing down the wires to give a better view of what's going on (though on the other hand, that would reduce the challenge).
A very literal take on the theme. The core gameplay is rather simple, but the "assemble a door" mechanic is quite fun. Overall, while the game may not be very innovative, the sense of humour and quality of execution make for a really fun way to spend a couple minutes on.
Simple and enjoyable. The mix of sprites using different scales it a bit jarring, but other than that, the audio and the visuals are very pleasant. A nice game with a lot of replayability; I only wish there was an "infinite" mode where exiting one dungeon would lead to the next.
Minimalistic, but fun. It took me a while to understand that the strange noises is actually a person saying "XXX built". :D
Simple and fun, but boy does my finger hurt from all the clicking.
Simple and fun. Plays very much like a single-player board game. Bit of a shame there's no sound.
A very nicely done game! It's a bit of a shame there isn't any kind of goal to reach, since after playing a bit one gets so accustomed and the money flows in so fast losing stops being a concern. Still, the audio and visuals are really impressive for a jam game!
Yet another desktop simulator... but how nicely done! The ads are reminiscent of the early interwebz, and the malware effects are just plain awesome (especially Miku-chan). I also loved the "old computer" background noise.
