Swordfish

Garçon! by MercilessCult 2023-05-10T21:17:15Z ♥ 0

I think this idea has a lot of potential! I really enjoyed the gameplay and the graphics but its could definitely use some polish. I found it really hard to read the names on the letters and reference that to the guestbook, maybe some way to look at an individual letter directly would be good. I'd also really have appreciated a sprint button lol, the movement speed felt really slow to me. I really liked the pixel art style myself but it might be good to increase the number of pixels a bit so its easier to see things from a distance.

Firelore: First Fate by LucasMolina 2023-05-06T16:07:54Z ♥ 1

I don't have much to say that hasn't been said, it's really an interesting concept. Kinda reminds me of the Giver in a way. I think it worked without music in the "cutscene" parts but if they were much longer it would be nice to have to add to the atmosphere.

Airborne Adventures by firellon 2023-05-06T00:14:38Z ♥ 2

I have to agree that the movement is a bit floaty, but I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the different types of platforms, and the graphics are nice. I found that the music was a bit repetitive by the end but I guess that's unavoidable with a short loop.

Dwarven Delivery Service by furry-fire 2023-05-05T16:40:15Z ♥ 1

Took me a bit to figure out that I just needed to get the boxes from one cannon to the next so the first one without a cart threw me off a bit but I really enjoyed it after that. Good job making shooting the cannons feel really good, I have to agree with the others that some music would really help though.

Also it wouldn't load for me on LD, but it works fine on itch.io, not sure why.

Alien Parcels by NoNiMad 2023-05-05T16:23:57Z ♥ 1

Could be a fun mobile game, which sort of looks like what you're going for with the aspect ratio. I found it really difficult to figure out how to sort packages but I eventually got the hang of it, I found the manual effectively useless. Might want to add some text to it to explain the distance thing and since the cards on the right showed some equations I figured that the symbols on the left were some sort of equation as well and not that they couldn't be put together. Overall pretty fun though once I figured it out.

Mail-In Vengeance by YellowKamel 2023-05-05T15:59:43Z ♥ 1

Took a bit to figure out how to control the balloon, but managed to slay the dragon on my second run. Definitely an interesting mechanic. The style of the dragon reminds me of hooktail from that paper mario game for the game cube, its kinda cute.

Parcel Pursuit by bloodyaugust 2023-05-05T02:29:52Z ♥ 3

Charming is a good word for this game, the art is really nice and the music and sound effect selection is good even if you didn't make those. I found timing the double jump really hard though, it seems like there's only a small window to press the W button a second time for it to work; too soon and it doesn't, and too late it doesn't either so that was a bit frustrating. I also really liked the start menu being the delivery truck, that's a fun idea.

Goblin! Rescue! Squad! by JesterBLUE 2023-05-05T02:22:58Z ♥ 0

I really like the 2D characters in a 3D environment style, I've always thought that's a neat aesthetic. The goblins are cute and the movement felt good, one thing I struggled with though was aiming, maybe a dotted trajectory type of preview would be more useful than the simple arrow you've got now. I also found it difficult to charge a shot fast enough to hit the trolls before they hit me and broke the stones. The music and sound effects are pretty good too, I think the rocks were lacking a bit of impact though when they hit the trolls. Pretty good entry overall!

Divine Messenger by ndellam 2023-05-05T02:05:30Z ♥ 0

I couldn't get very far due to the weird jumping mechanics, I only made it to the second screen but the sound design is good and I liked the screen shake when you fall a long distance. I have to agree in that the movement mechanics are frustrating, it feels a bit like your sliding across a sheet of ice or something. Generally platformers aim to have very precise movement so going against that creates a pretty strange feel, that's not necessarily a bad thing if you really lean into it though, could be an interesting "rage" platformer maybe.

Styx by manioora 2023-05-05T01:51:41Z ♥ 2

I like the vibe of this one and I enjoyed the variation in environment throughout the map but I have to agree with others that the movement system is a little confusing. It doesn't really behave like a rowboat, but once I figured out that holding both A and D moved you forward it was a lot easier to get around. I also found the dialog a bit strange in that it doesn't really fit with the rest of the vibe of the game. Really great entry overall though, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Aspect Traveler by Benedict Ide 2023-05-05T00:34:06Z ♥ 1

I'm impressed by the amount of writing here, that's a lot of effort on its own plus the art and music are nice. I never made it to the summit, kept dying after a couple of turns since I had a hard time telling which options would reduce which stats. Some of them were intuitive, like the hot and cold ones, but the others were a bit more difficult for me to judge. I noticed that sometimes the options showed the effects they would have but sometimes they didn't, I think consistently showing that info would be a major improvement.

SWAN SONG by Simon Rahnasto 2023-05-04T20:08:13Z ♥ 3

Really great entry, but that's pretty clear from the other comments lol. I didn't make it to the end, got killed while trying to fix the engine but oh well. I really like the graphical style here, combined with the music makes for a great atmosphere. I don't usually see voice acting in jam games, so I thought that was a nice touch too.

The only thing that didn't work particularly well for me was the glowing effect on the bullets, caused a bit of lag, but that's likely down to running it on my laptop with integrated graphics lol.

Unread Messages by shimmerscale 2023-05-04T19:43:57Z ♥ 1

This is a great entry! Really enjoyed the mechanics, and the aesthetic is spot on. Would love to see more levels, and I accidentally ran into the same issue one level four as @poshdan so you might want to rework that one a bit lol.

Bagelseeker by alaah 2023-05-04T19:13:51Z ♥ 1

It's really cute looking, and the falling sound is cute too, but I found the platforming extremely difficult even with the triple jump, especially those really small platforms with the key on them. I also think it needs to be clearer that you need to download the app to make it to the end but its a neat idea.

I also had the same issue as @nazorus, doesn't seem like a scaling issue though since I've got a 1920x1080 screen on 100% scaling 🤷. Managed to get the app from the video so I got it working anyhow.

deLIVERY by hwaet 2023-05-03T18:31:33Z ♥ 2

I had to look up most of the heraldry terms lol, but it was a fun experience. Some of them were really hard! I guess I'm naught but a saddle-goose after all. I found the music a bit grating though.

UNPRESIDENTED by Alyson Betz 2023-05-03T17:27:46Z ♥ 0

It's a funny idea, the Canadians made me laugh. Really hard to control the unicycle but I guess that's the point. I also liked the variety in failure messages, I saw quite a few of them lol.

Haul and Pray by Shess 2023-05-03T16:49:59Z ♥ 3

This is a really polished entry, probably the best game I've played so far this time around. The graphics are really nice and the music sets the mood well. It kinda gives me darkest dungeon vibes. The amount of content here in only 72 hours is pretty amazing, but I got attacked by that bear three or four times lol. The only thing I can think of that's missing is some sort of health system (unless I missed it), taking damage didn't seem to have any consequence and I seemed to take a lot of damage lol.

Winter Factory by Jul._.li 2023-05-03T16:15:57Z ♥ 1

Fun little game, really polished, the graphics and sound design are probably the highlight for me. I think it was a bit easy though, you could probably speed up the conveyor a fair bit before it gets too hard.

Fetch! Good boys? by DashNothing 2023-05-02T21:05:57Z ♥ 1

Interesting take on a platformer, the constant bouncing makes it harder to plan your path for sure. I didn't make it all the way through, got stuck on the 5th or 6th level so I don't know if there were any other block types besides the spikes and the flamethrowers but they were interesting enough. The graphics are nice and polished, and the sound effects are nice, I think some background music would really help add to the vibe though.

Signs of Corruption by seurimas 2023-05-01T19:33:04Z ♥ 1

Really interesting idea, had some fun playing this with a friend. Not really sure what your power in a region does though, one of my agents had nearly 3000 but seemed to be just as effective as the new guy with 60. Cool concept though, and the correspondence part worked flawlessly, would like to see it fleshed out more.

THREE GUYS - Pizza and Cheese by pfeyffer 2023-05-01T19:22:13Z ♥ 2

Good job, a fun game that plays well. I like the mechanics of rotating the cards to turn the lights on or off. I found it cool how many different combinations of cards you can use.

RIDDLER by StoicKekis 2023-05-01T18:40:40Z ♥ 2

I am also not quite sure how to make it work properly. Loaded it and saw nothing. Do I have to play it with someone else? Sorry if I am misunderstanding. Sounds like an interesting concept, if I did something wrong or their was some problem I will give it a go again.

Human Delivery by Unfinished632 2023-05-01T18:23:31Z ♥ 2

I really like the concept of this game. Has a retro feel, like one of the original gta games. I really like the warping to make look like an old crt, though for me the view was zoomed in to much. I found the controls sort of difficult to get immediately, when backing up the directions stayed the same and that threw me to start with. But, I think once you get used to them it would be good.

Onboard Hell by Blublu 2023-05-01T18:17:14Z ♥ 3

This is almost like a better version of the concept for my compo game lol so I might be biased but I really enjoyed it. I was a little confused when I lost the first time since I wasn't watching the timer, something to highlight it when its getting low might be good. The markers to show the direction of your next delivery were a good idea, not sure if I would have known where to go otherwise. Great entry!

Have You Got a Moment? by Alex Knowles 2023-05-01T18:10:11Z ♥ 2

Fun little game, I like the concept. I sort of like the slow pace, but there is a lot of space to add different features. I like the interactivity of some of the decor. I ran into a bug that broke the game while I was playing. While handing a package to one person, before they finished speaking I handed it to the intended person. They finished the other lines then said their own. Then I was curious and I handed a package to the right person then before they finished handed it to another. The same thing happened with the second person finishing the lines then saying their own but they continued to speak after the package disappeared.

Here is a screenshot.Screenshot 2023-05-01 140858.jpg

Not really a big deal, I know I broke it myself lol, just wanted to mention it.

Morse Messanger by Alexander Tan 2023-05-01T17:53:31Z ♥ 2

I couldn't finish it (skill issue lol) but I got to the second part where you have to decode a message. Not sure how far in that is but was playing for a few minutes. I think it is good, neat concept. I think the writing was funny and It fits the theme in my opinion. I think it would have helped to change the timing on the dash, it was a bit long to hold and I accidentally dotted too many times.

The Delivering of Christ - The trials of Mary by Trakina 2023-05-01T17:24:35Z ♥ 1

I really like the graphics, the gameplay reminds me of vampire survivors and the like. Maybe fewer obstacles would have been good though, I kept getting stuck on things.

Little Boy Commits WarCrimes Against Nature by Yahay 2021-05-16T01:33:51Z ♥ 1

The level design was really enjoyable, not too hard but challenging enough to want to keep playing. The art was pretty good overall, I didn't really like the art in the levels themselves, but it was nice that each level had a distinct style and the main title was beautiful. I also noticed on the red level I could jump out of the map by jumping back up the way I fell down so that might be something to seal up.

Very cute overall.

DRIFTDOWN by NoahRo 2021-05-16T01:14:50Z ♥ 1

Nice game, getting heavy downwell vibes but that's fine. The music is great. I didn't actually get very far, found it really challenging but I can see myself coming back to play it some more later. I also really liked the little intro slideshow, that was a nice touch.

Forbidden by aes 2021-05-16T01:02:55Z ♥ 0

Very cool graphics, love how the environment morphs around you, I'm also super interested in how you managed that. Very spooky mood, the sound effects helped a lot there. The boss fight was interesting but initially I wasn't sure what to do, I was kinda just flailing around until I noticed that the mushrooms did damage to it, maybe some more feedback on that would have been nice.

Malleus Pistrium by piscythe 2021-05-16T00:48:02Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed that a lot, I see you opted out of music but I did want to mention that it added a lot to the mood of the fight (the more epic one that is, not so much the carnival sounding track). I was happy to see that there were more phases to the fight after the first one because I found that one a little boring.

There were a few weird things though, I've never seen a program display the way this one did, the full height of my screen got letterboxes but not the width? I also noticed a lot of errors in the debug console - looks like you didn't connect up the particles when the player takes damage right.

Screenshot 2021-05-15 204145.png

Overall enjoyable!

Daré Fortress by luthwyhn 2021-05-16T00:22:05Z ♥ 1

I got through a about four seasons before it crashed as well, not sure why wasn't running it in command prompt so it just closed :(

Real ambitious to recreate DF in a weekend so kudos for that, I think you got the main things in, there's so much more to add if you do continue.

Mars Cave Explorer by OddballDave 2021-05-16T00:07:41Z ♥ 1

The movement was an interesting take, I think that's what really makes the game work. I found it a little bit frustrating how easy it was to take damage especially considering that the movement is hard to be precise with. Maybe it should be based on velocity so you don't wreck your ship trying to get off the ground. The graphics were easy to read, if a little simple and the music helped the mood for sure.

Oiligarch by dxk2294 2021-04-29T00:03:10Z ♥ 1

Very nice, I'm sure this would have made a very successful flash game back when those were a thing. Graphics are simple but they really work, nice and clean, the background music is really nice, though I'm not a fan of the really loud foghorn on the tankers.

Would have been nice if you could easily see how many trucks and tankers you were sending to a city on on its page, I found it a bit difficult to manage.

Deepest Sword by Strega 2021-04-28T22:12:45Z ♥ 0

Well, that was great. I really have nothing to contribute, the last level was really hard but if that's what you were going for then you nailed it.

Easily the best game I've played so far.

Downslide by pabulum 2021-04-28T21:30:30Z ♥ 1

Fun little game, I would have put attack on the down arrow though, that's what I instinctively went for. The color shifting is a nice touch.

Codename::GreyHat by Train27 2021-04-28T18:52:28Z ♥ 1

That was really interesting, I eventually figured it out and got the good ending. Really liked that the company was trying to get you to frame someone. It reminds me a lot of a mobile game I played years ago I think it was called hack run or something?

It would have been nice to see some quality of life improvements like command history and auto-complete but overall really nicely done.

Pipeline Traveler by PD Dev 2021-04-26T21:25:17Z ♥ 2

I thought the game was pretty cool. I liked the idea, and as others seem to have commented the music was a nice touch. I had a bit of difficulty controlling the mouse, often had to try corners a few times. Was a bit odd that the mouse moved freely, but I think it could work. I just ended up getting stuck a few times. I think the hiding mechanic is pretty neat, though I couldn't really get the hang of it. I think that comes down to player skill more then the game though :)

Afraid to Turn by rhoff95 2021-04-26T21:00:08Z ♥ 2

Really well done. Got turned into a werewolf both times i tried, managed to get all the berries but not make it back. I had some difficulties scaring away the wolf, the rocks didn't seem to do anything sometimes when it was in the woods, but once it tried to charge you I found it quite fun. The atmosphere was awesome, and the sound really added to that. Great game:)

Deep Way To Basement by Usenrame 2021-04-26T20:45:19Z ♥ 3

Pretty fun, it's a nice mechanic, I like the graphics. Would have been nice if the other models could interact with each other though, bit weird to see the couch phase through the walls and I think that could have made it much more chaotic.

Kill Yasuhiro by Spydercrawler 2021-04-26T20:20:01Z ♥ 2

That was good, I really liked the focus mechanic, it would have been much too hard without it I think.

The sword sound was probably the wrong choice though, sounds more like I'm swinging around a lightsaber or something. I liked the music overall, and slowing with the focus was really good.

Goblin Philosopher by Jibberwocky 2021-04-26T20:07:31Z ♥ 1

This was nice, initially I found it a bit hard to tell apart my goblins from unconverted goblins, the sound was good.

Would have been nice if there was a bit more of a goal though.

Outer by kristinamay 2021-04-26T19:44:20Z ♥ 0

Pretty good across the board, all the little descriptions were pretty funny and I liked the music. It doesn't look like you fixed that bug though, I got to about the sixth galaxy and then had an error when going to the next.

``` Error

Traceback

Hey, Wake Up! by SeaFishelle 2021-04-26T19:20:04Z ♥ 1

I think this is a good game. The graphics are nice and I like the design of your bear character. I really liked the gulp noise, thought it was funny. I thought the progression was good and I notice fairly quick that the speed meter drains faster the more gems you have. I did find the HTML version a bit laggy, but that isn't really an issue.

Tunnel48 by Geckoo1337 2021-04-26T19:01:51Z ♥ 1

Cool game. I thought it was really fun to play, I like that you could flip to the other side of the tube and run out there. I like the graphics generally, but found the repeating grey checkerboard a little hard on the eyes. I thought your music fit the game pretty well. May play this a bit more to try to get higher on the leader board :)

Layered World by hiki911 2021-04-26T18:34:21Z ♥ 1

I think this in an interesting idea. I sort of like that it seems you're doomed from the start. You probably could have worked on adding a bit more randomization into the game, a improvement in my mind would be to add more types of square with different rewards or even penalties. The graphics looked nice, but some sort of sound would have been good. It is a pretty good game, but with some improvements it could be great.

Rabbits Running by Taximan981 2021-04-26T04:49:27Z ♥ 2

Is the rabbit supposed to look like that. Or do I have a dirty mind. It's okay, not really the most complicated game. The music got a little repetitive, but over all, not bad.

Ludum Dare News Network by SecretJuice 2021-04-26T04:15:46Z ♥ 2

This game is hilarious. Would love to know what exactly the rating means, I assume something to do with the deepness of your voice. This is probably the funniest thing I have played in a long time. It does feel a little rushed in some places, but overall great. Love the black mouth just vaguely moving in time to your voice.

Deeper & Deeper by Ironicnet 2021-04-26T04:04:04Z ♥ 1

I couldn't get past the second level, but I thought it was a fun little game. I really like the concept of being tied to a second character, but the control was just a little to difficult. Thanks for the game.

Depar - LD48 by Cirdan 2021-04-26T03:50:43Z ♥ 2

I like the ideas behind this and I really like your sprites. It is a little disappointing that the enemies just sit there, but I understand that this is more of a proof of concept sort of thing. I think this would be a really great game if you fleshed out the mechanics a bit more. I like the setting of like the mechanical underbelly of a space colony. Neat idea.

Boneitis - Quest for the Cure by patvanmackelberg 2021-04-26T03:36:30Z ♥ 2

I think this was a really well put together game. My only real complaint is that the cure is almost completely unattainable. Maybe this was part of the joke of the game. I got all of the upgrades but 100,000 gold is crazy. Also what exactly did the iron pick do? Didn't really find anything changed after I got it.

Deepz Explorez by khaotom 2021-04-26T03:11:13Z ♥ 2

I found the sound really compelling. It felt like it was coming out of the trees and rocks, which was very cool. I thought it was fun to play and had a satisfying ending. Not overly complex, but I probably wouldn't have been able to solve a maze like that anyway so, probably for the best.

Paragon by LakshyaIsAGod 2021-04-26T03:01:20Z ♥ 1

Unfortunately, I also can't play the game as UnityPlayer.dll is missing. Hope you see these comments and get it fixed.

ld48: no-eyes by sesemcc 2021-04-26T02:57:29Z ♥ 0

I think it is really interesting. I am still a bit confused as to how to play it properly. I figured out that the eyes move you in the direction they are looking, but I couldn't figure out how to solve the first puzzle. I thought your main character and sprites looked really cool, but the backgrounds and tiles were very hard on the eyes and a bit confusing. I think that I may have just not understood everything, but some more explanation of the mechanics at the start would have been helpful. Very good submission, and I hope you make more games. After you get some rest of course :)

Miner Rescue by mausimus 2021-04-26T02:48:40Z ♥ 1

I really like the design of your tunnel. I think this is a really great game. I didn't get very far, but that feels like a lack of skill on my part and that I could get farther with practice. I think my record was 17 seconds.

Drills and Gadgets by RNGames 2021-04-26T02:42:28Z ♥ 1

I liked the controls, felt really intuitive. It was pretty good overall. I got a bit of a bug where my trail disappeared after I hit a rock. Thought you would want to know. It reminds me of a flash game called motherload. Just curious if that was an inspiration.

Dwarven Delver by cavedens 2021-04-26T02:18:15Z ♥ 1

I really like the art you put into it, both the end card and the title screen look pretty cool. Took me a try or two to figure out how to advance, like some other mentioned. Overall though, I think it was good.

For the king! by OfirMa85 2020-04-20T05:21:12Z ♥ 1

Really solid tower defense, this is the game I've played longest so far. The pixel art is nice, and the music was actually quite good. My only gripe is the tower design was a little lackluster and didn't really fit with the medieval theme.

Penguin March by ilPrinny 2020-04-20T04:31:02Z ♥ 1

Managed to make it to the end with 60 odd penguins left. Much more fun than I was expecting and the penguins are cute.

Ignited by The Blue Hatted 2020-04-20T04:23:11Z ♥ 1

I'm amazed you managed an online game in such a short time, fun gameplay too.

Wavering Divinity by Brandon JS Lea 2020-04-20T04:16:31Z ♥ 0

Very interesting concept, well executed and polished. Would be nice if there was a little more to it though.

Night fire 🔥 by Glavak 2020-04-20T03:52:05Z ♥ 0

Graphics are nice, wish there were more things to throw in the fire. Mushrooms were cool though.

Brightly-Wrapped Boxes by incobalt 2018-08-18T00:09:32Z ♥ 1

I like the idea and the distance on the audio was a nice touch. The graphics are okay, nothing very exciting though, and others have mention the movement is weird. I heard some coughing in the background at one point, seeing as you're at a party it would have been nice to hear some conversations that would add to the humor.

Wow! That's a big hole! by LuppaTeam 2018-08-17T23:58:55Z ♥ 1

Pretty fun game, getting more money the more enemies there are is a nice mechanic that pushes you to play more dangerously. I'm personally not a fan of the graphics but some people might like them, I found the sound design really good.

Pretty good overall, I liked it.

Running out of Platforms by Fork0 2018-08-17T23:50:18Z ♥ 1

Pretty fun little game, sort of like a reverse breakout. The graphics could use a little work and the sound is a little repetitive but the gameplay is interesting and the platforms are a nice mechanic. I think it would have been better if the platforms that you fall through stuck around instead of disappearing, then you could use them as a sort of shield something like space invaders.

6 K by pataya 2018-08-17T23:41:11Z ♥ 2

Very well done, very polished feeling and looking, very nice art and the music really adds to the tension. My only gripe is that I feel like without the music there wouldn't be any tension, it would have been nice if the enemies did something other than make a straight beeline for you. Maybe even giving some more spawn points other than the corners would break them up a bit.

Amazing Deliveries by Mister X 2018-08-17T23:30:06Z ♥ 1

Nice and simple, pretty fun though I didn't really feel like I was running out of space. The graphics are pretty basic but functional, some music to set the tone would have been nice. I didn't really feel any sense of urgency.

Demonic Digestion by DodoIta 2018-08-17T23:20:04Z ♥ 1

The art is really nice, but after a while I found the music a little repetitive. Gameplay is pretty fun and using your enemies against a larger enemy is an interesting idea. Though I'm not sure it fits the theme very well, just being a bullet hell in of itself doesn't seem like enough to me.

I also ran into the big skeleton not spawning after the first game, if you're wondering.

Skeleport by thristhart 2018-08-17T22:54:35Z ♥ 1

Very fun and engaging game, music is really great and goes with the pacing really well.

I only have some minor gripes that were a little frustrating, movement felt really sluggish for what became a bullet hell and I swear that I watched my bullets go straight through the cultists multiple times. Those are really minor polish things though, I'm amazed that you managed to get a full game like this out in just 3 days and a really fun one too.

Plasma Destruction Legion by Zombie Virals 2018-08-17T22:15:54Z ♥ 0

The audio is good, the graphics are good, the controls feel a little loose but it is reasonably fun to play. The theme is there but it doesn't really feel like it has a big impact.

Pretty decent entry overall, could use some improvement though.

The Consumer by foolmoron 2018-08-17T21:59:24Z ♥ 1

This is probably the most interesting game I've seen so far, I don't think it fits the theme very well though and I felt like I was mostly just guessing at what the correct formatting was.

With a little polishing it could be really good I think.

Mindlapse by Vulture_42 2018-08-17T21:49:01Z ♥ 3

The art is really great, I'm curious though; did you digitally model the characters or actually build them out of clay and then photograph them?

The music is really unsettling and it really adds to the mood though the gameplay gets a little boring after a while frankly. There isn't really any sense of urgency to keep me engaged.

Overall really great, and really innovative either way you did the art I've never seen anything like it.

CLAMPRESSOR File Archiver by Deaymon 2018-08-17T21:34:50Z ♥ 1

Fun gameplay for sure, though it would have been nice to match more than three or match vertically. The graphics could be improved but they're functional and I like how happy the clamp gets when you combine things.

Reading through the other reviews nobody seems to have mentioned it, but for me at least the audio was crackly and almost like it was playing in slow-motion. I've had that happen before with other games but only if it's running at 2fps or something. The gameplay was smooth but the audio wasn't. Other than that though it seemed like pretty good music.

Really good feel to this game, good music, good art, and great gameplay work really well together. The robot is really cute though it would have been nice to see some kind of a background.

Pretty good across the board and I had a lot of fun, though I'm pretty bad at it lol.

The voxel graphics are really nice, super tough on the harder difficulties. I really like the feel of it and wow, does it get overwhelming fast once it gets through the first area!

It would have been nice if there was some kind of music or sound effects, but I didn't run into any bugs and it was very polished so I'll forgive that.

Really great job overall.

Nice and simple, very polished, the graphical style reminds me of N. Simple but effective.

Temple of Ungrow by Dovakla 2018-08-16T20:14:25Z ♥ 1

Pretty good entry I'd say, I really like that the character grows but the world around doesn't. That allows for some really good puzzles if you continue with this. The graphics aren't that great though honestly.

I didn't actually get very far through the game so I can't comment on any of the later stuff but the first minute or so was pretty good. I ran into a bug in the trial of speed, I got stuck inside the upper platform after I fell down into the area with the bowling balls (?), when I went to jump out I could go through the walls into the platform but I couldn't get out after that. After a few attempts I gave up.

Super fun little game, with some more story and variation I can see this as a game I would play regularly. Great art, I love how the labels wrap around the corners of the boxes and it has a really nice almost animal crossing feel to it.

It gets pretty chaotic pretty fast, and I love it.

A really great entry overall, solid contender to win I think.

Package Man by Armadillq 2018-08-16T19:36:36Z ♥ 0

I had almost exactly the same idea, great minds think alike I guess. Maybe it wasn't quite as original as I thought, pretty good game though. It would have been nice to be able to jump into the truck to reposition the boxes. And the graphics and the audio could use some work.

Fun idea, but it could have been executed a little better.

P.S. Mine isn't executed well either...

I'm TOTALLY not a clicker! by gimblll 2018-08-16T19:28:37Z ♥ 0

The music is nice, it might get annoying after quite some time but not immediately at least. I would call it more of a swiper than a clicker, I didn't really do much clicking but I guess that's good for a not clicker. A little short though, why stop the game after the last block? Pretty fun overall.

As other have mentioned already, that first sound is pretty frighting when you aren't expecting it, maybe some background music on the title screen and you'd be prepared for more sounds.

I wasn't expecting this to be an almost puzzle game, but it works really well. The little cube man is pretty cute and overall it's a really fun arcade game. The only downfall is the sound really, some sort of theme rather than just effects would have been nice.

Space Hoarder by Leandro Dotta 2018-08-15T04:55:41Z ♥ 3

I like the concept and the art is fairly nice, but as others mentioned it's a little confusing at first. Some music would have really helped with the mood I think.

Overall pretty fun, I found it really easy but that's more of a personal note; I don't think the gauge ever filled past half.

Shipping Fast by Shane 2018-08-15T04:45:19Z ♥ 0

Interesting take on the theme; some kind of a hectic warehouse management jumping game. But the execution didn't really come together, because jumping is so important it would have been really nice if it was snappy and weighty feeling rather than the float-y "I'm not really sure how high I'm jumping" effect that it currently has.

I'm not sure the top-down perspective really works either, it makes it difficult to tell exactly how high each stack is. Maybe even a 2D tetris like board would have been better. This feels more like an early prototype unfortunately, it really could use some polishing.

I really like the idea overall, lots of people did warehouse games but none of ones I've seen took a more abstract clearing method like this. It falls a little flat right now though.

It looks like your link is broken, I'm not seeing a download anywhere on your gamejolt page :(

NOOR by PNghasemi 2018-08-15T04:18:56Z ♥ 1

The art, the animation and the sound design are all amazing and together they make the mood really great, but it almost seems like you had an idea for a different theme and just went with it anyway. I can see this fitting much better with light is key or even safe in the dark, with some modification.

Aside from that I found myself dying just from being in the dark unintentionally way more often than anything else, and overall the shooting mechanic felt a little unnatural; I had trouble shooting the lights exactly where I wanted them. Because it's so important, it made the whole game feel a little off.

That said, I really liked the NPC's personalities, it is a mechanic I've never seen before and I absolutely have to give it 5/5 in both graphics and audio.

Never run out of SPACE: a ZIP folders journey by Swini 2018-08-15T03:51:30Z ♥ 2

I like the look of this game and it's a very good first entry, but the real sticking point for me is the change from level 1 to 2. We go from avoiding blocks of data at risk of restarting the level to jumping on them to get to the end? And on top of that there's no way to differentiate the blocks that will bounce you from those that won't because all the blocks up until that point have been different colours but served the same purpose. That transition is very confusing at first and though I jumped on the block right away to see if anything had changed it really just left a bad taste in my mouth.

The story is a nice addition and it makes for a coherent experience though there are a few spelling errors. I think with a few more sprites or even more meaningful colours you could eliminate that confusion and it make it even better.

Hydrogenic by Gabe 2018-08-13T05:41:20Z ♥ 1

Very polished feeling, the little screen shake on a jump is really good. I found it a little hard to tell where exactly I was going to land after a jump though, maybe a line across would be nice. It could just be my awful lack of spatial awareness though.

ENOCH'S SALT by KRP 2018-08-13T05:12:22Z ♥ 0

Very atmospheric for sure, the sound really adds to it too. All the little things come together really well.

Rampart by Jeremy Ryan 2018-08-13T05:09:46Z ♥ 2

Wow, loving the art, and that floating effect is so smooth. I'm definitely going to have a look at the code for that. How many surfaces are there? Is it just one for the background and one for the arena? Or is the arena loaded as a sprite so you can move it easily? Or is it all in the camera work?

I always like to see what other people do with pygame.
