I really liked the little character and art style. The music was a bit too loud and I did encounter an unfortunate bug: if you reset after death while in slomo, you stay in slomo until you die again. Overall great job!

Clone fest by Tori 2024-04-16T01:10:11Z ♥ 4

LOVE the art style! Clever idea to use clones as stepping stones to move through the level, and the chaos of trying to jump being attached to the mechanic is cool. I wish I had a little bit (and I mean just a little bit) more control over where the clones spawned. Got a good chuckle out of all the 'rare' clones.

The last witch-knight by HolyBlackCat 2018-08-29T02:52:12Z ♥ 0

Pros: - Difficult: I got to phase 4 a couple times -- so close :) - Art style and particle effects look really good overall - Dodging felt very satisfying - I like that you chose to have only two buttons + arrow keys for controls, reminded me of early computer games ___ Cons: - I got kinda frustrated with the laser phase. I think I would have preferred, although it would make the game a little easier, if there was a lag time on the tracking. - I liked the art style, but I wish the player and player particle made more sense with the context of everything else -- particle appears out of nowhere and player character looked generic compared to the really cool boss and crystal designs. (I also thought the grass was pleasant on the eyes) - I felt like the dash and shoot buttons should be swapped -- this is a very small nitpick ___ Definitely one of the better games I played during this jam. Hope to see your game in the next one!

Proto Dash by huminaboz 2018-08-16T06:19:56Z ♥ 4

This would work really well as a mobile game. One thing I would have liked to see is faster charge up on the dashes. Overall really impressive game, loved the graphics.

AdSpace by YourLocalSavior 2018-08-16T05:58:11Z ♥ 0

Pros: - Clever idea, love the idea of ads that block your view as the game goes on ___ Cons: - I wish the ads were more costly to remove and would build up more slowly. ___ Really unique take on the theme, wish I'd thought of it :)

Space Escape by paulhocker 2018-08-16T03:40:46Z ♥ 1

Pros: - Really clever idea combining bejeweled with a "typing game" style space chase. - The music and visuals all looks pretty good ___ Cons: - It was a little difficult to keep track of all of the different numbers on the screen while playing. - Kinda buggy (difficult to deal with this issue in 3 days so pretty understandable) ___ Overall great concept; I thought it was really cool. Keep it up :)

Data Runner (LD42-Jammer Edition) by acronaut 2018-08-16T01:07:34Z ♥ 1

Pros: - Great aesthetic - Music worked well ___ Cons: - difficult to see connection to theme - difficult controls ___ Had fun with this very aesthetically pleasing game. Thank you for sharing :)

Space Junk Defender by Dmitrix 2018-08-16T00:56:58Z ♥ 0

Pros: - I like the idea, it's clever and simple ___ Cons: - Would have liked it if some more gameplay mechanics were put in place on top of this concept. Maybe powerups? ___ As an aside, I personally didn't hate the paddle control -- it added to the difficulty

Storage Overflow by Andreas Roschal 2018-08-15T06:01:22Z ♥ 2

Pros: - Really creative, love the gameplay. One thing I especially found great was when you needed a package that was deep in the mess and had to fight your way through the pile of crap to get to it. - I thought the ability to upgrade things added an extra layer to the game. ___ Cons: - Not sure if this was on my end or if it was the game, but when there were a lot of boxes colliding, it would break the music. - I thought the sound design and music was good, but would have liked if the music track was maybe 10 seconds longer before repeating. (I understand the time constraints though). ___ Loved the game, keep it up! Thank you for sharing :)

Carter's Crates by Diego Escalante 2018-08-15T05:54:20Z ♥ 1

Pros: - It's refreshing to play a difficult game. A lot of people play it safe by making their games kinda easy. - The global leader boards were a neat idea - I really like the gameplay. The chaos of frantically balancing grabbing blue boxes in the red box area and rushing them across the field with knowing when to give up on that and just trying to get as many boxes from a closer proximity provided a real challenge and difficulty curve. ___ Cons: - Sometimes the controls could be a bit frustrating (e.g. if you're trying to grab a few boxes and have to jump to get them, it felt like you had only a few frames to grab) - Occasionally I found myself in an awkward game state where I was stuck in a corner surrounded by boxes. I suppose this could be argued as a part of the difficulty but I felt like rushing around to try and get as many boxes in holes was plenty difficult enough ___ Overall really great game, lots of fun. Thank you for sharing :)

The Junk's Games by Paulo Augusto 2018-08-15T05:36:40Z ♥ 1

I couldn't play your game because I got the error: "Out of video memory trying to allocate a rendering resource. Make sure your video card has the minimum required memory, try lowering the resolution and/or closing other applications that are running. Exiting..." Might be my end, as I'm on my laptop but thought you should know in case other people have the same error.. I'll give it a go on my desktop when I'm back home in a couple days :)

Attack of the Void! by rubr 2018-08-14T22:55:12Z ♥ 3

Pros: - I like the style of the game. The base sorta reminded me of Command and Conquer(95) for some reason. - The game was difficult, there was some real strategy in deciding when to play greedy and when to build more defenses. - I like the idea of a base that expands and having to trade resources for more space ___ Cons: - Some sound effects would have really helped. Check out BFXR - Was only loosely related to theme ___

Overall enjoyed the experience, thank you for sharing your game :)

Space Slugs from Planet X by disco 2018-08-14T21:48:08Z ♥ 4

Pros: - The art style and sound design is consistent and pleasant to look at. I think a spray bottle would have made more sense for a space janitor than a gun, but maybe janitors carry guns in the future so who am I to argue that! I'm most impressed with how consistent all of the sprites looked and the pleasant color palette. - The shooting and mop attacks both felt responsive. I think the most difficult task of having two attacks is making them feel balanced and have strongly defined strengths and weaknesses. I noticed myself switching between the two frequently which is great. ___ Cons: - Some sort objective rather than reaching the door would have felt better to me. -- Maybe you are trying to turn on the sprinkler systems for the room and then you can move on? - Longer levels would have been great, maybe something like all the levels connecting and after you clear an area the new one opens up. (time constraints makes this kinda thing difficult though, our game is pretty short too) - I found myself frustrated at the green/grey drain on the second level (2nd floor) that I felt like I couldn't get by without getting hurt. I get that the concept is that you can't possible clear all the slimes and its a race against time, but it felt unavoidable getting damaged going through there. ___ Wonderful game, please don't read into my criticisms too hardly -- I really enjoyed it :)
