This is pretty bloody good! Rad sound design and looks pretty lovely indeed. All info is explained within the game, which is handy. The fading text adds to the already uneasy atmosphere - quality stuff! Only down side is the game doesn't actually restart when you click at the end, which is a pretty small thing, given how much other stuff is actually here. Awesome! :D
The aesthetic is rather nice! It feels wonderful, and there's a great drifting sense about it, which is fitting. I like that the sounds were derived from Sputnik, a really nice touch. Great :D
I had no bloody clue what was going on but I loved it
Get's a bit hectic once there's a few more enemies than usual on the screen. I found it initially hard to understand, but felt pretty fun once I got into it. It LOOKS AMAZING. I wish I could crank out decent art while programming like you've been able to ;D
It looks nice, and the sound design is bloody lovely. It's a shame the controls aren't as responsive, but its pretty fun :D
Cheers for the comments, people. It's really much appreciated <3 @everythingwasbees, I get what you mean about alternative characters, and funnily you can use your normal num keys as well as the numpad, but again, I had a little more planned for the full 72. Initially it was going to be something like Contra, but I ran into quite a few issues, including getting "levels" to work. It's all just C#, and it's really made me think about the component structure for making stuff like this. Personally, I can't wait for the next jam, as I feel I have a better grasp as to the scope of the game I should be attempting to make.
Cheers,
Will H :)
When I think of the words "electric" and "neon", this is exactly the kind of game that fits perfectly to those words. Lovely mood, and it looks lovely. The concept of driving around as fast as possible is great, and the car feels great to handle when going fast. My only problem with the car is the lack of reversing, and even slightly touching the environment is effectively an instant game over. Regardless, it's pretty solid :D
Very nice concept, and looks pretty nice! A shame I can't actually pick up any of the items, but decent looking :D
The game isn't here :(
Where's the game m8? :(
Itch.io throws a 404 :(
Gameplay is a little hard to grasp, but if that's polished up it'd be pretty darn good :D
Not really sure what the sludge looks like? Regardless, it looks very nice :)
Unfortunately it doesn't work as it throws a 403 :(
A very sharp execution of a nice little concept! Reminds me a bit of the soft-body tetris games but with force-directed points! Admittedly I was a bit unsure how long it took for the lil guys to dissapear once connected, as sometimes it felt faster or slower than usual. That being said, it was wonderfully done, the music and clean bubbly graphical style were all wonderful. Very very lovely stuff!
A beautifully crafted game with some excellent polish. Truly wonderful stuff!
A charming little game about duck traffic control. While the duck noises are very fun, they did end up getting old after level 4. That being said, the lil piano chimes were nice. The graphical style was very nice, though some idea as to how close I had to be to influence the ducks, and some better description as to what the bags were would've been nice. Overall, not bad at all!
Awesome job with this! I found the swinging mechanic and movement especially fun, though an FOV slider would have been nice ;) The graphics were quite good, though I did find the platforms blended into the background a bit too much at times. Overall, I had a lot of fun with this, and all the level selection and high score mechanics really give this some replayability. Lovely stuff!
A very nicely executed tower defense game with all the little mechanics I'd expect. Nicely done! While sound effects got very repetitive very fast, I thought the art was especially nice.
So much detail was packed into this! I love how frenetic and chaotic the gameplay is. I was able to do a few loops of the place and get some items from the jet ski as well as under the pier, before eventually figuring out how not die so often. I wasn't expecting a full-boown scoreboard! The design of the models, music and the way the flying feels is excellent! Bloody good stuff! score.jpg
This is really lovely little puzzle platformer. The art for the lil butter guy is absolutely delightful!
A very lovely take on a classic bit of ghibli. The team swarm mecahnics are lovely and well-implemented, the challenge ramps up nicely. The challenge does seem to come from bunching up your lil guys together. The audioisual design is really lovely. I love the expressiveness of the sprites and how they cycle bvetween them. Dead nice!

In a mere 5-minute timespan, I have experienced the unfettered, unfiltered, unaltered amphibian experience that it is a colossal round frog. Initially, after engaging in what I initially thought to be frog-like behaviour, eating flies and the like, I came upon the horrifying realisation of my true purpose. It was when I began bouncing ashore, like some deep-sea rubberised harbinger of destruction, eating plantlife as big as bushes, that I realised that this game had gripped me tight. The unending hunger could not be satiated. In a matter of moments, the frog that I was controlling had graduated from flies to dogs and wicker baskets. The size of my froggy form could not be contained as I asserted my new place within this small dominion, gobbling down houses, trees and eventually entire land masses like some megalithic psychopomp-esque serpent of death. Unspeakable things in an unspeakably small amount of time. The home was consumed. The world before me was now one enormous pond. The frog was the only thing left, as it should be. As it always was.
This game has changed me.
Great graphics and sound design, very katamari. Gorgeous stuff!
An excellent DOM game! The ASCII art lil guy is in excellent aesthetic. Must admit that bullet hells aren't really my thing, but I did have a bit of fun nonetheless! Also proud to be the first negative score due to reasons you probably know ;) Excellent stuff!
An absolute masterpiece! This has so much polish! The art, the writing, the design, the little transitions and format of a news broadcast, all utterly wonderfully done! The gameplay itself was simple but effective, and ramped up in difficulty nicely, though I unfortunately diodn't get round to finishing it (got the catapult bit). Truly amazing work, folks!
A nice little turn based rpg!
Refreshing to see a stealth platformer in a game jam, especially with a more whimsical feel. A bit of audio would've been nice, and I echo earlier comments about checkpoints and the sluggishness. However, I quite liked this! Nice job!
The opponent was a nice touch, though the core gameplay being just Snap wasn't really my thing. I wasn't really a fan of the graphics personally, but the writing was quite fun!
You might want to reupload your windows files somewhere like itch.io, I couldn't find them at the location in the windows link.
The concept of this is excellent! I love the visual style and little flourishes of writing, it's incredibly flavourful! Gameplay-wise, I struggled to play in the browser due to the wonderful particle physics of the bees, I think. It got quite laggy, but I was able to play to the best of my ability (I wasn't very good). Dead nice!
While the art is very lovely, and there's probably some nice card mechanics in here, I found this very hard to get to grips with. I had no earthly idea how many actions I had per turn, what the "cost" meant. I do love the concept, and reading the description more closely, I see what you were going for, but gameplay-wise it's quite difficult to get to grips with it. Love me some isopods :)
Bug battle! I enjoyed faffing about in this, the art and animation was especially nice, though it wasn't immediately obvious to me what each type insect did until I experimented with them. The sandbox approach was interesting, though I did notice some of the creatures getting stuck on the pen every now and then. I had fun playing around with different combinations though. Dead nice!
Really love the concept! Though I had a bit of difficulty selecting some of the cards, it's a nice lil deckbuilder with some excellently drawn lil guys!
The intro cinematic was very nice! Admittedly, I wasn't as much a fan of the gameplay, as the platforming felt a bit off. I immediately got stuck in a hole which I couldn't get out of until I shrank, which is a very nice mechanic by the way! Though the combination of unpredictable maneuvering, poor camera placement and me clipping out of bounds made it hard for me to finish the first level. The sound design, visuals and character design were still very appealing. I also loved the kitchen location and the painterly look it had to it. Big congrats on completing the jam!
