Cool! It took me a minute to figure it out. But I had fun with it. The attack feels like it only works horizontally. Which is significantly limiting when there's a horde to deal with. But other than that it felt good! 👏
Nothing will show you that you need to work on your math speed like a math game! Well done. I enjoyed this one. I did find myself getting distracted watching the animations/art of the dudes and forget that I needed to keep crunching out the math 😂
Nice! The walking animation is funny. And that golem ruins everyone's day. The RTS player in me wants to see this built out more. The enemy AI did look like it was attracted to the player and not the castle. So they kept getting stuck on the walls.
Nicely done! I wish there was more enemies to fight because I love the mechanic. Do I spot some Slay the Spire and Darkest Dungeon influence? I would love to see this fleshed out with more baddies to fight, slime infusion unlocks, different types of slimes, and maybe some equipable items. Also, that tutorial screen and me chuckling. Well done!
Nice! Turns into a bit of an idle clicker at some point. But what a blood bath! I does seem a bit unwinnable though. Maybe my strategy is just off. Sound effects were hilarious. Especially chad 😂 Well done.
I like the idea. At first I thought I was getting in the way of the fireballs meant for another target! Then I realized that it wasn't friendly fire. Dang fiends!
The hitboxes are a bit rough. Making it way to easy to get body-blocked and unable to move while being sucked dry. But that's the only issue I ran into.
Neat little battle arena. For some expansion, it would be nice to randomize the dungeons and give some more control over the equipment. Rogue-lite-ish. Well done 👏
Nice concept. With some tightening up on the movement this could turn into a super fun skill platformer. Seems like the core is there but the movement felt sluggish in comparison to the platform disappearing speed. Regardless, well done!
Apparently "your mom" is a tough being to defeat! Go figure 😉 Fun take on the theme. Well done.
Alright, fine. You got a chuckle out of me. Also... apparently I'm suspicious AF 😆
Fun little puzzle game! I had to limit myself because I wanted to restart and use better strategy.
The slow movement of the icon while dragging was a bit much. Made me a bit impatient when placing them. Other than that, well done!
Fantastic! 👏 It has been a long time since I've played a good bullet hell and I had a lot of fun with this. Adorable ghosts, and death sound. Clean graphics. And I was able to beat it! But that sniper is the bane of my existence 😂
👏 Well done. I enjoyed this one. Nice strategy with the different enemy types and limited resources. The only issue I ran into is the movement getting stuck on the enemies. But other than that I had fun. Lasted until round 18 before getting swarmed!
Linux build works
I like the timing based mining mechanic. It would be cool to add in some more stealth abilities to give more options to avoid the summoner.
This was fun! Nice reference that fits the theme. I only just started watching the original Dragon Ball a few weeks ago. Well done.
Haha, I was typing away and it took me three words of trying to pop the dude in a suit before I realized it... you got me 👏
You might want to repackage the download though, I had to download both the source and the exe to the same folder to make it work since the resources aren't compiled into the exe.
Interesting, I like the hand drawn art style. It's a bit slow in the transitions, but a good compo submission.
Flower Power! Interesting take on an infinite runner type thing I could see this getting built out into something with a lot of variety, roguelike style where your build and timing/skill matter.
I could see this going places. A few things that tripped me up. The kamakazi dudes come out of nowhere and there's not chance to deal enough damage to take them out before they ruin your day. It's tough to collect enough to buy your helpers before you get overrun. And there's something funky going on with the movement that's causing everything to look jittery.
If you do flesh this out more though I'd love to take another look at it. Could have some good potential.
Getting the timing right while baiting the baddies through the trap locations meant that I almost always had to take damage to do damage. And the teeth spitters with their wall hacks was tough to deal with.
Haha, I feel called out for some reason 😉 Well done. I got a good laugh out of this one. Gotta set a minion down in front of it to see if we can make it crash.
That was fun! Gotta love a good 'ole dungeon crawl. I'd love to see it more fleshed out with better map design and more need for resource management.
I'm bad at word games in general, but I like this concept. The letters were a bit confusing sometimes with the font.
This was a blast! I will actually be going back to this game and playing it more! Well done. It felt very responsive and is a really cool idea. It felt like I kept getting better as I played more. This is a gem.
The web player is just showing a grey box after I click "Start Game"
This was really entertaining. I like the concept. The momentum of the UFO was a little much though. I constantly overshot the planets or was going so slow that I had a hard time getting there within the time limit. But overall, well done!
I like the mechanic idea, but those hit boxes kill it for me. I ended up getting the fuel stuck on the clouds and other pieces of terrain that I didn't think would be a problem. The pathing of the flame was kinda janky and inconsistent. The art and sound were nice! With some AI cleanup on the flame and some polish on the hit boxes of the fuel drops this would be a lot more playble and quite a bit of fun.
Suggestion: Maybe play around with making the fuel drag and drop from a toolbar with a limited supply of each. That way the player would have more control over where they place the fuel and it would add a bit of a puzzle element to it since you would have limited resource. This would go along with having the flame AI prefer certain fuel types. I encourage you to keep working at this. It could become a really cool game! If you do, ping me. I'd love to see where you go with it.
Art style was simple and interesting. I like the idea, but it seems like there's a bunch of polish missing. I would have fiddled around for longer but there seems to be a big issue with the mouse binding to a single window. I run multiple monitors and the mouse escaped out the side. So when I would shoot it would select a window on another monitor. Keep working on this! I think this could go places as kind of a first person tower defense kind of thing.
Ha! I totally posted a comment on the wrong game. Your link is still busted btw.
This was great! I love the slime. And the graphics in general. The controls fit well with the level design, but the arrow knock back was a little strong. I would _love_ to see this expanded with more levels. Well done.
Great graphics and concept. The enemies were not very responsive to the torch and moved pretty fast to attack. Maybe increase the effective distance of the torch and give the enemies a little bit of slower movement to give Bobb and Todd a fighting chance.
Well done! This was a ton of fun. My wife and I played it for quite a while.
Well done! Graphics and audio were spot on. It was quite a challenge (which I really enjoy). 👍
I'd love to see you finish this. I like the concept but it seems to be a bit buggy. The aim speed was jacked through the roof. The spawning of bad guys and win detection seem to be off as well. But I think this would be fun if completed.
Cool little game. The movement speed made it a little hard to aim and grab the food. But I like the idea.
This is a cool idea. I like the graphics and music. Its a fun little adventure to search around the moon.
I really like the concept. Like you said, we had a similar idea with fueling the fire. The movement and controls were a bit clunky and hard to work with. I really like the art direction.
This was great! I like idea a lot. And I would love to see this expanded upon.
This was entertaining. I found myself pretty much using the tornado and flies abilities to clear out chunks of dudes. Well done.
Well done! I really like the idea. And it gave a really nice challenge to find the balance. The graphics were great too.
This was great! Is it bad that not only did I have fun figuring out all of the puzzles, but I also had a lot of fun seeing how many different way the baby could... umm... cease to exist. 😆 Well done!
Haha! This was funny. After a while getting stuck on level 7 I ended up just drifting the robot around for a while 🤣
Nice design. The puzzles aren't very hard but I like that you might mess up and need to start over. The graphics are well done too.
I like the art style and would love to see it animated. The movement was sluggish and kinda difficult to use. But I like the concept. And not just because it's ducks 😉
This was very well done! I played it through a few times just to take notes for my future games.
Really fun and difficult mechanic. I like it!
This was a blast! I kept playing it for way too long. Love the art and the die to upgrade system. The biggest criticism I have is that I kept losing the cursor against the background. I'd recommend making it contrast a little more. Even just a white outline would really help. Well done 👍
That was fun! I like the art style. The camera movement was a bit jarring though. Good work overall.
Interesting. I could see this becoming an Indiana Jones style puzzle game. Throw in a few traps and some more puzzle levels and you're good to go.
I like the concept and the core mechanic. But the levels feel repetitive, the controls feel mushy, and the character has too much inertia. The last two make the character hard to control with precision. It could go quite a long way but some time should be spent on the responsiveness of movement.
This art style and the music really reminds me of Overcooked. I love it! Now I want to get a group of people together to have tournaments. Well done!
I totally turned this into a challenge to see how many items I could barf at once.
I really like the graphics style, and this game has a metric ton of potential. I found it too easy to "glitch" and just start racking up bounty at the bank. And the full auto gun made me chuckle. It just made be picture the lone ranger fanning the hammer on his Colt revolver like it was a shake weight! I'd love to see this more polished and have more content added.
I really like the mood of this game. The art is cool too. Nice work.
I would totally play more of this! I'm not much of a mobile game person, but this would fit that paradigm well.
This game is hilarious! If I ever need to take out some anger on some fish I will be pulling this up again.
This is cool! I want to keep playing. I would love to see this integrated with a controller. This is one of those instances where I really feel like having the analog control of joysticks would be really useful. It would really smooth out the experience.
Wow, I spent way too much time playing this game! Love it! It seems like there may be a triple jump bug that locked movement. But that was the only issue I found. I'd love to see this turned into a multiplayer game 👍
I had a mob! This was fun. So many zombie dudes to collect.
I like the art style and the travel and fuel mechanic. Definitely has a FTL vibe. I found myself getting a stuck quite often, and it seemed like one mistake early on could screw up the whole run. But still enjoyable.
I enjoyed The Oarsman. This seems like its a great start to a nice little platform game. A few comments though:
- It wasn't clear that you could dash jump. So I got stuck in the water a few times and didn't figure it out until the second level. - On the second level I got stuck inside one of the disappearing platforms for a few seconds because I was jumping through it when it became solid. (Bug or feature? You decide 😉) - Did you use a capsule collider for the character? Or some other collider with a rounded bottom? I found that the jumping was plenty accurate but when I landed, half the time I would slide off if I was too close to the edge of the platform. - The dashing seemed a bit unpredictable. Sometimes it would dash exactly where I wanted to and other times I would end up dashing in the wrong direction or not dashing at all.
All in all a neat, fun game! 👍
I like the concept but I found it difficult to keep the controls straight. A little bit of attention to the control scheme and you'll have a decently fun puzzle game.
So the WebGL version worked in Chrome but not Firefox. For some reason the controls didn't register.

Hey look! Another bee game! Nice! This reminds me of Gratuitous Space Battles. It would be good to have some indication of the stats of each of the bees for some more informed decision making. Other than that I had a good time with it.
Micro Wars by OddballDave 2024-10-10T01:47:24Z ♥ 2
Very well done! I like the aesthetic is great and the mechanic is innovative. I didn't have a controller handy, but I can totally see how that would make it easier.
Also... Linux build 👏
Ducks on the Road by designernap 2024-10-10T01:03:39Z ♥ 1
Cute and entertaining! At one point I think there was 12 ducks or something that I needed to collect... Little buggers got to the momma duck and started a conga line around her and right down the drain 😂
Late Night Capsule Rescue by sourcehorse 2024-10-09T03:37:47Z ♥ 0
Interesting concept. The physics of the coin was hilariously frustrating. I kept jumping the gun on dropping the coin and missing 😂 Cool idea!
Leconium by imai_Time 2024-10-09T03:10:55Z ♥ 1
Not to beat the dead horse... but the controls. Stopping the move while the attack is going and not being able to cancel the attack make it feel super clunky. Outside of that it was smooth.
Look by sudocoffee 2024-10-09T03:06:42Z ♥ 2
Okay... I like this... A lot! Super cool puzzle game that really challenges my spatial visualization skills. Keeping track of all of the different perspectives is enough to make my exhausted late night brain bleed a bit. I would love to see this built out more. Especially with a way to get all of the perspectives to the target if you do it just right. I would lose my mind working to find the solution.

Cute! Super fast on the first wave. Took me a bit to figure out what was going on. I like it though. The power extensions of the towers is a nice touch.
Quick note for graphics. On a 4k screen with forced full screen it makes everything look super blurry. Doesn't effect my rating though since this is likely an edge case with my hardware.
Nice entry!

Take that creepy spider bastards!
I like the direction you took with this. I found that it was a bit rough to not have any information about where the spiders were coming from with how large the map is. The footmen seem kinda useless since they just get blasted if they get anywhere near the spiders. But the archers... mmm... archers. Gotta get them to surround the spiders in a circle. Then the targeting AI would get confused and they'd just enter a death spiral. Bug? Feature? Either way. I found it super satisfying to kill them all with one castle remaining

I like this one! Fun little strategy/chance game. Well done.
Hive Mind by Ember44 2024-10-07T01:08:14Z ♥ 1
Nice entry! I could wish there was an easier way to select the ants so I could be faster. But that could also just be a skill issue. 😂

Nice! I want to keep playing this just for the music! Well done. This is a fun use of boids.
