DEEP LD by Atikyne 2021-05-18T19:51:09Z ♥ 1

last minute rating! great stuff. maybe some enemies, or obstacles could be added?

Endure The Unknown by Edvcel 2021-05-04T11:09:23Z ♥ 0

Wow this is great! I found myself thinking about strategy and risks: do i need to explore further and hope i find oxygen, or should i move the camp... etc. You could tell that lots of effort was put into the system of panels, on the subject, this project was really refined. lots of text adventures tend to set up a dodgy combat system, which can suck up so much development time, and just ends up confusing for the player. This game however, knew it's aim and perfected the features it did have. nicely balanced, interesting, and really goes with the theme.

The only tip i can think of atm is the way you present your game: you have screenshots, which is great, but the title page should make people interested, instead of scaring them off with a wall of text and rules. Most likely, they won't read it, or will just try out the tutorial (which btw, explains everything just fine.)

Great job edvcel!

Hello from Estonia! I found your game to be very innovative - like no other game so far! I spent some time learning the controls, and got up to stage 3 before one of the players fell on a danger block. It's great that you didn't go with the most obvious idea, and actually spent some time coming up with this cool game mechanic.

Other things I liked include: The pixel art the block removal animation and the randomizing end point of each level.

You may want to consider putting a screenshot or two in the game description - it can make a game look more attractive, so you get more players.

Keep up the great work!

It's about to go down by Marcus Otterstrom 2021-05-01T08:44:57Z ♥ 1

cool graphics! I agree with newrybenson about the bullets, but i liked the speed at which it got harder, and it felt very balanced if you avoided shooting when possible. maybe some other powerups could make it more exciting, or slightly adjusted controls (so you can go in corners, or in the middle (in hindsight you may be able to do this and i just didn't notice)) overall, cool game with pleasing graphics, would be nice as a mobile game.

That Song by Juh Champ 2021-04-30T09:19:28Z ♥ 0

Wow. this has feeling. the concept is really strong, ig it could be improved by more of it being made from scratch, e.g. textures, song, etc. it would be interesting to do the same thing for other songs too. I love the overall story, and read through it many times. also, i got so confused by the ground... is it moving everytime i walk, or is that an optical illusion? am i walking on snow, or is it clouds of forgotten memories? my fav 48 game so far, keep it up!

very cute game! It took me two attempts to successfully store the food, but i did it! i love the noises, especially the one for storing. is that a yeet noise?

Dark waters by antoined73 2021-04-27T10:00:04Z ♥ 2

very calming. there seems to be a limit to how chunkey you can become... i found this out by becoming it. would be neat to play this as a multiplayer game, i love the diving mechanic.

if i had to point out one problem, its that it can be hard to distinguish which level each fish is on, especially if you dont eat the fish above you. maybe the levels above and below could be blurred or made more transparent?

great stuff.

Clean it. by Hexa3 2021-04-27T09:43:35Z ♥ 2

cool idea! it can be hard to make a game if you're the only one in the team. maybe gather some friends next time. Overall, i liked the concept and humor. dont lose hope!

Archeodillo by Rambar 2021-04-27T09:34:31Z ♥ 1

those insects were delicious! i loved the music, the graphics, and all the effort put into planning out the different mechanics. There were so many different objects you could interact with, I think the game would be significantly improved by just using the same mechanics, and adding MORE LEVELS. great job to everyone on your team!

Hey, do I need javascript or something to run your game?

are you still trying to upload? looks interesting.

Aleph Null by Broken Robot Studios 2021-04-27T09:06:32Z ♥ 0

WOW i just spent like 15 mins on ur game, when meaning to spend 1 or 2. really great graphics, the music is nice and subtle, but the explosions are craaaazy loud (both visually and audibly) the movement could use a bit of polish, but overall, love it!

Deep Survivors Guilt by Krebzor 2021-04-27T08:14:47Z ♥ 1

Love the art style! The planet physics doesn't feel quite right, but is easy to get used to. My favorite part was the ending, where the space dog was being fed dehydrated broccoli. that sound... not very delicious. :)

The rate at which the difficulty increased and different aspects were shown was great.

The music was a little loud for a game about the desolation and loneliness of space.

Overall, I loved it!

Damn. One hour before the rating ends and I find this. As a portal fan, and as a general non-euclidian physics fan, I salute your effort. I spent a long time on this game, despite the recurring crashes, it was great fun, and I truly encourage you to keep experimenting in this field. It's awesome that you even attempted this mechanic, and awesome that you continued to work on the game after such a serious set-back.

Great work and hope to see your game again next time!

I found a bug... oh wait that's me.

Aviarium by AidanMarkham 2020-04-23T17:21:04Z ♥ 4

amazing! breathtaking! this is staying on my computer, after the event, it's like a little poem! the music fits the game perfectly!

i have no suggestions, this game is perfect.

Checkmate by CharlieMrl 2020-04-22T20:28:47Z ♥ 4

how the hell did they have that many pawns?? :) awesome game! really loved the way you could move the king, and would love to play an actual game of chess this way :)))
