LD60 — Old Tech (15)

The Automaton by silkworm_sweatshop 2026-10-23T10:01:08Z ♥ 1

This game really reminded me of a project I've "been meaning to work on, but I've been too busy". Seeing you bringing a similar concept to life during a short game jam is a bit of a reality check on my own project. πŸ˜…

It's a really nice and clever game. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I played the JAM version, so I don't know if you've already addressed these "issues", but I think having level numbers visible and having both a "full reset" and "back to start, but remember my instructions" would be great touches. One time I had just entered one movement instruction too few and I had to redo the entire set of instructions. Another time, I realised I had one too many "move left" instructions, and I would have liked to just enter one extra instruction in the middle, but I had to undo everything after that.

With some polish, this would be a great little puzzle game!

Sound of Night by mikeware 2026-10-23T07:54:23Z ♥ 1

LD60 has had some particularly difficult games. Like others have said, the tutorials were great. I'm genuinely impressed I got through them and that's quite a compliment to their maker. πŸ˜…

Again, like others have already said, using audio instead of just text was a nice twist, but I feel like this game is too difficult for me... or like the game taught me: `Β· Β· Β· β€” β€” β€” Β· Β· Β·`.

Evil East Conquest by JesΓΊs GonzΓ‘lez 2026-10-23T07:40:57Z ♥ 1

This is a cool game and some nice warm up before DOW4. πŸ˜„

As an RTS player, I really liked the concept, but I think the game should start with a tiny bit more handholding. Just showing the basics via gameplay, like "don't use soldiers against structures, only use machines."

It seems obvious when written or said, but the game plays very slowly. I wasted a few units in level 1 and it takes a wood ram several minutes to cross a level and you're just left waiting, so I didn't want to go back and start the game from scratch.

A tiny bit more handholding, so that the player doesn't make obvious mistakes that forces them to go back to level 1, and perhaps adding a "speed up time" mechanic so that you don't have to "wait for the game to happen" for too long, like having "Pause", "1x", "2x", "4x" buttons to control speed settings that some games have.

Still, a really neat and interesting game with potential!

Answer with Light by Foursay 2026-10-23T06:40:51Z ♥ 0

This is definitely one of the most atmospheric/mood(y) games I've encountered in LD.

I see the "Post Jam Update: Better Tutorial Experience" mentioned in the description, so I'm likely playing with the better tutorial and I'm still struggling a fair bit. πŸ˜…

Oldie by Kwetka 2026-10-20T18:44:30Z ♥ 1

That was a pleasantly zen game and a nice change of pace from some of the other ones. Definitely hit the theme nicely as well.

This is probably just me, but I felt slightly uneasy as the cogwheels didn't perfectly line up. πŸ˜…

Great work!

Broken Arcade by koala585 2026-10-20T18:30:41Z ♥ 1

I'm glad you gents didn't pick more litigious companies IPs to rip off. πŸ˜„

torilla.png

This was definitely the most unique and interesting game I've played this jam!

Torilla tavataan and all that.

The Last Tumbler by Flightless 2026-10-20T14:50:27Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the minimalist art style. I wasn't as much of a fan of the brute forcing required to solve the levels. I don't know if I just missed it, but I would have liked to see or have some additional mechanic for figuring out which order the pins were in other than just trial and error.

DEAD PIXELS - THE LAST SIGNAL by artemeda 2026-10-20T14:40:44Z ♥ 1

It was a fun and well-executed game. This is surprisingly polished for an LD game. The reset/checkpoint mechanic was particularly smooth. I also appreciated the game "didn't overstay its welcome". Well done!

Rhythm Coders by Samet Aylak 2026-10-20T14:29:24Z ♥ 3

Interesting concept. It's a bit silly that a music game has set "don't rate for audio". πŸ˜…

Old World Skies by IndigoWolf 2026-10-20T14:18:40Z ♥ 0

I'm not sure if "people" were playing the same version.

I also had quite a lot of issues trying to play the game. Even after pressing P to "focus mouse" on the game, I had to hold down left mouse button to be able to control the plane. I wasn't really able to experience the game as my FPS dropped to about 3-5 after a few seconds of gameplay.

Tiny Technician by brimstone 2026-10-20T14:04:55Z ♥ 1

I completely misunderstood the game initially. I thought there was "something more" to it than just basic additions and subtractions. I'm still also not sure if the game really has issues with slow loading, or if that's just a part of the game. πŸ˜…

It was a fun game! πŸ˜„

weird gameboy game I found in the mountains by Enad96 2026-10-19T04:01:58Z ♥ 1

Someone told me they were impressed by how I managed to create my jam games in such a short period of time, but this is on a whole other level. This will take time and effort to play through. Nicely done!

Merry & Bright & CRI β‰₯ 95 by jacobwinters 2026-10-19T03:13:42Z ♥ 1

I spent a good while tapping this check mark, thinking it was a button the next puzzle, but apparently it isn't? πŸ˜„

check.png

It's a clever and fun little game.

Old Man Playing Old Game by NTMalichi 2026-10-19T03:00:35Z ♥ 3

This is certainly old tech, and it gave me PTSD.

I was trying to get past this point for like 5-10 minutes, but I just couldn't managed to get past this. I don't know if the fault of the game or the old tech, or if I've become too old and clumsy, but I just couldn't get past that jump. πŸ˜…

stuck.png

This was certainly a unique game!

Stick and Hoop Simulator by uvwar 2026-10-19T02:52:00Z ♥ 1

I'm not quite sure what I did, or how I did it, or if *I did it*, but I am proud of myself.

LD59 — Signal (14)

Ludum Dare 59 - Cell The Signal by baknik 2026-04-26T07:23:04Z ♥ 1

Like some others, I'm not sure if the game is actually beatable right now. I feel like the game could definitely guide the player a bit more. For instance, some buildings were within my towers' range, but none of them were using the network. Increasing range or signal didn't have any effect on them. I wasn't sure what the intended strategy was and as the game is 95% waiting without anything to do, I didn't feel like trying again.

The game captures the theme well and there's the seeds of what could be an interesting game, but it needs a lot more work and polish to get there.

Echo by FlameSeer 2026-04-25T11:26:19Z ♥ 2

I really liked your sonar implementation. πŸ’― I think some audio would have really elevated the experience.

Occult Ace by IRKAR 2026-04-25T10:40:10Z ♥ 1

Like a few others, I was also wondering the connection to the theme a bit... though I was more puzzled as to why I was killing goats in a forest. πŸ˜… It's a neat game and I see you were another one of who decided to play around with a CRT shader. πŸ˜„

phone home by ikado 2026-04-25T10:23:39Z ♥ 2

I found the art style and the soundscape relaxing.

I may be too much of a min-maxer, but I found the robots to be a hindrance. The robots are fairly slow at mining and the time that it takes you to buy a robot and for it to get to mining, you could have mined significantly more if you had just kept on manually mining. For a game as short as this, I don't think the robots are actually worth buying, unless you (the player) plans on stepping away from the game.

Moon Moth by kanity 2026-04-25T10:07:11Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the unique art style.

Just a thought, but the audio related lag spikes could probably be fixed by preloading the audio files.

Last Resort by gil4 2026-04-21T03:56:20Z ♥ 3

The game looks and sounds beautiful!

Judging from the 1-6 controls mentioned for the bots, I'm guessing some were cut due to lack of time? It'd be interesting to see what they would have been.

Avalanche by JulienLussiez 2026-04-20T20:28:34Z ♥ 1

It's a simple, fun and enjoyable game.

I think the pinging sound could have been "less annoying" on the ears as the games general atmosphere was otherwise so relaxed. The controls did feel like they could have worked a bit differently, but overall it was a great experience.

The Red Watcher by FoxEcho 2026-04-20T20:19:47Z ♥ 1

I don't know if the game ended as intended or if it crashed. I don't know if I will keep watching or stop watching? πŸ˜…

Like others have said, it's an interesting twist on clicker games. I think the upgrade system should have used a different method for updating, like keyboard, so that I could keep collecting things while updating.

It's a neat entry!

What's that signal? by Local Minimum 2026-04-20T20:03:34Z ♥ 1

Now this is what I'd call a meta game! πŸ˜„

That was a great little experience and definitely a unique one.

Connect the Universe by alstegodev 2026-04-20T19:59:03Z ♥ 1

It took me a few attempts to realise the planets "activate" just by mouse hover and that clicking on them just deactivated them. πŸ˜…

The background music is a bit repetitive, but the atmosphere and the style is fun. I think the most difficult part with a game like this is to communicate the rules effectively to the player, perhaps via a simple tutorial level?

Blind Signal by Ilya Kr 2026-04-20T19:27:22Z ♥ 3

"The enemy hearing/seeing your pings." Seems like we had a similar idea with this mechanic.

I liked the game's general mood and its concept. I think the game could have benefited from "playing faster". The walk animation and the delay made the game feel perhaps a bit unresponsive.

I agree with goodwayman that the game didn't use/reach its full potential. The ping wasn't necessary to complete the levels, it felt more like a limited use power up or cheat.

More Signal, More Control by ZMiner 2026-04-20T17:54:43Z ♥ 1

Fundamentally changing how the game changes multiple times during the gameplay is an interesting idea. It does make it a bit more challenging in terms of time as you (kinda) need to develop 3 separate games, which means testing, balancing and debugging for 3 games. The obvious drawback with this approach is that players will likely enjoy one game/mode more than others and it's difficult to finish, let alone polish a single game/mode during a short game jam, let alone 3.

That being said, I did like the idea and game jams are a perfect place to try out things like this! I think adding a slight transition animation to when the game modes change would make it easier for the player to grasp the new game mode's style and rules. Seeing some feedback to when you hit the enemies or they hit you would also make the game feel more responsive. This could be something as simple as flashing the model, adding a little knockback, etc.

Signolium and the Hunt for the Mutineers, Part 3 by Noob117 2026-04-20T17:42:30Z ♥ 2

I loved the overall vibe and pacing of the game. Having the option to control the sound levels in the game without having to adjust my speakers manually was also a great little addition. πŸ˜…

The game was fun and it plays well. If you've still got the time, I'd an option to skip the intro cinematic on subsequent playthroughs.

My one nitpick would be camera. With games like this, enemies that are directly above or below the player can "just appear out of nowhere". By having the camera track the player's cursor as well as the player location, it allows the player more control as to what they see and then these surprise enemies become a skill issue instead of a game feature.

Nicely done! πŸ’―

F(R)OG by Egrassah 2026-04-20T12:08:03Z ♥ 3

The audio seems to be breaking and results in fairly loud screeching after a while.

I enjoyed the game's general mood and the simple controls that allowed me to just jump into the game. The obstacles and other game objects could have used higher contrast as light grey rocks can be difficult to see over light purple-ish ground.

Some of the tiles might have been bugged, like the one "force move down" tile that actually allowed me to just walk over it, but overall this a neat jam entry! ✌🏻

LD53 — Delivery (14)

Boxt In Space by Diego Escalante 2023-05-05T21:40:39Z ♥ 1

A fun little game. Like some others, in level 1 I tried stacking things properly, but by level 2 I was just tossing everything in due to time constraints. I think the game would have benefited from some clear feedback to the player regarding how they were doing.

04 Mail Service by Asieke 2023-05-05T18:13:22Z ♥ 1

Like others have said, the controls are exceedingly difficult. I enjoy difficult games, but I felt like this was just way too difficult. When the control list UI disappeared in level 2, I just gave up. πŸ˜…

You could have, for instance, made the controls using standard 4-directional movement. Moving just left or right moves the character left or right, but when paired with up or down movement, the character is moved diagonally. This way the controls would have been a lot easier to grasp.

Rescue Rat by Sashalipatov 2023-05-05T17:43:28Z ♥ 2

Like someone else had mentioned, if you don't wait for the intro slides to finish and just click on "continue" as soon as you can, the game crashes.

The art style is nice and the music is relaxing and fits the setting. I think the game could have benefited from a compass that directs the player to their destination. The camera should have also been pushed a bit further as there were a few instances where I died to a rat that was under the top right UI. I died before I ever saw the rat.

Edit:

I just saw the message in the description above about playing the game in full screen. It does improve the experience, but you should try to make the UI scale for smaller viewports as well, especially if its playable in the browser.

This was my initial view: image.png

Packing Up by RRADU 2023-05-05T17:31:33Z ♥ 1

Like others have said, the game looks great and sounds good. Unlike others, I don't think there was all that much game to be played. Just buying items, putting them back for sale and proceeding to the next day isn't all that interactive or engaging.

A quick tooltip or intro in the game would have also been helpful. I just skipped the first two days by clicking on the bed. It took me another couple of days to realise that the "sell" button doesn't actually sell the items at the indicated price, but I get to assign it after pressing the button. πŸ˜…

Pro Epistula Mori by squimmy 2023-05-04T21:41:04Z ♥ 0

I do have a soft spot for the art style used in the portraits. For a game as cutesy as this, I felt the brothers were a bit too expendable. πŸ˜„

At first I thought you were supposed to run on the wall, but then I realised you can just run across the field and that was the entire point (or only way to survive given how the firing zones worked). I think that could have been stressed a bit more. That cost the lives of at least 3 brothers.

Loading Zone by drazil100 2023-05-04T17:34:19Z ♥ 1

I would have liked to see an option to send the truck away faster, but overall I enjoyed the simple nature of the game. It would have also been beneficial that the parcels on the line would have stopped in a place where they would have all been visible on the screen so that you could have always known what the next parcel is going to be.

Unwanted Delivery by Lone_Wolf 2023-05-04T17:24:38Z ♥ 1

I have to agree with the others. I made it close to the end, but then would have died without the cheat feature. Having it in a game jam project like this was a great decision and made me able to get to the end.

I feel like the combat system could have been simpler in terms of math and that the player would have had more influence on it apart from accepting a good result or rerolling until they've run out of rerolls.

Parcel Pursuit by bloodyaugust 2023-05-04T17:16:41Z ♥ 2

The game looks great and the sounds fit well. I would have liked to see some more variety in the game regarding obstacles, increasing speed or changes in difficulty in general. After having delivered about 11 parcels, I got the feeling that "this was it". Having obstacles that would punish double jumps, needing to do some sliding, etc. would have given the game a lot more complexity and replayablity.

Delivery Boy Express by civmaniac 2023-05-04T17:10:21Z ♥ 3

Like others have mentioned, the controls feel quite unintuitive and that likely contributes to the feeling of being excessively punished (killed) for somewhat minor mistake (hitting your head). Using enter to interact with locations also seemed a bit uncomfortable because you had to, at least partially, let go of the controls.

That being said, I did enjoy the take on the theme and the "driving off asteroids" aspect was well executed and fun. The audio was also fairly soothing of the amount of deaths that were going on. πŸ˜…

Post Haste by Manlok 2023-05-04T16:56:56Z ♥ 1

Cutesy and fun. I liked the game, but I wish the customer speech bubbles would have been a bit more prominent and/or easier to read.

Panic Potion by Tugaryn 2023-05-02T17:55:23Z ♥ 1

Well, this game certainly is difficult. πŸ˜…

Refining the camera would make this significantly more comfortable to play. It's a bit jarring when the map and your character changes entirely or swaps positions between frames.

The game's audio could be a bit lower as the gameover prompt caught me off guard a few times.

I feel like with some more polish, this could be a really fun game. πŸ‘

Pizza Time Rush by TheButterApple24 2023-05-02T17:23:56Z ♥ 1

The fast paced music does suit the game and the car audio is alright as well.

The gameplay is fun, but I feel like you could have significantly improved it by having a small minimap in some corner of the screen, showing a literal "drop off point" for the pizzas, and refining the collisions with the walls a bit more. The game calls for speed and I'd like to drift the streets and occasionally bump the curb (or houses) in tight corners, but each collision just drains the entire momentum of the car.

Still, it's fun and entertaining, and a good game jam entry! πŸ‘

Souls on Board: The Styx Delivery Service by Boon 2023-05-02T17:08:10Z ♥ 2

The audio fits the game well.

I feel like the game itself could (and should) contain some playing instructions. I tend to start a game and if I can't figure it out, then I come back to read the instructions on this site. Even a single image showing the controls and the game's goal, or which is good and which is bad, would be a fantastic help and make the game more approachable.

Adding some sort of restart/replay mechanic would be great too so that the player could just try again instead of having to restart the entire app.

Election Day by prachi 2023-05-02T16:58:14Z ♥ 0

I don't know if it's me or if something's not working as it should, but I kept getting the words to turn green only to have "..." appear in the speech below.

For replayability, I'd recommend including an option to skip the lengthy opening cutscene so that players can get to playing your game faster (especially if and when they've already seen the opening cutscene once).

LD50 — Delay the inevitable (16)

Rifthoppers by Kimberly 2022-04-14T21:53:00Z ♥ 0

The game was real cool. Seems like we had a similar idea of having a "last stand" type of game set inside a circular arena. πŸ˜„

The visuals and background music were great, and I really enjoyed the talent system. I would, however, implement some sort of mechanic to avoid selecting talents accidentally. Perhaps you could show a "level up!" indicator above the player and prompt them to press a key to select a new talent, and then you could have the player select the talent and press a different button to confirm it. I picked half of my talents by accident. πŸ˜…

On a final note, I'd have liked to see some more feedback from actually firing the gun and hitting enemies, perhaps some screen shakes or sound effects?

DeadFlame by Conroy 2022-04-14T21:47:00Z ♥ 0

Well, I died after the fire went out and the zombies kept on kicking me. I guess you can flog a dead horse! πŸ˜„

The audio, visuals and mood were thoroughly enjoyable. I think the fireplace mechanic could have used a bit more work. I died because the fireplace went out, but I think that should have had some type of "warmth mechanic" so that you wouldn't just die when the fire dies, but you would have needed to stay by the fire to keep warm. I'm also not sure where and how to get the firewood, so that's on me as well.

Like @conroy said, my game and yours are somewhat each others 2D and 3D counterparts. πŸ˜„ Oh, and your fireplace mechanic reminds me of another older LD entry of mine. πŸ˜ƒ

Sweet Bedtime O' Mine by K4M1 2022-04-14T14:29:00Z ♥ 0

I think everyone can relate to being woken up early and how it feels like a fight. πŸ˜„

The alarm clocks might have been bugged, or maybe I was just too impatient, as they took certain amount of damage and then just laid there. After waiting some time, I ran into them and lost. If it was some delay mechanic, it could use a clearer indicator?

The visuals and audio were cool, apart from as I'm writing this comment and I'm hearing the gameover sound looping in the back indefinitely. πŸ˜„

Oh, and one more idea, if your game is played entirely using the keyboard, then it'd be great if the menus worked using keyboard only as well, that way you wouldn't need to take one of your hands off to navigate.

Bitboy by Proxy-Games 2022-04-14T13:57:22Z ♥ 0

The intro at the start was a cool idea, but there should be a "skip button" as some players would just want to get straight into the game and those replaying it would likely want to skip it as well.

I liked the visuals and it kind of resembled Fez feat. Canabalt to me, and the gameplay was responsive.

I played the game twice. On the first time I got to ~4700 and the game just ended. I'm guessing the meteor hit? The next time around, I got to ~8300 and there simply wasn't a next platform. I don't know if it was by design or a bug, but I think these things should be accompanied with some more clues to let the player know what the cause was. πŸ‘

As for the theme, I do agree that this fits the theme, but I would have liked the "delaying the inevitable" to be dependent on how I'm playing. For instance, the game could get faster and faster until I am no longer able to keep up, but if for some reason I could, then I'd like the game to keep playing. πŸ˜„

Somnipathy by Cyzaine 2022-04-14T13:49:03Z ♥ 4

Well, this was definitely a unique kind of game.

Like others have said, the look, sound and mood were great. I could have maybe used a bit more direction as to "what the goal was" as I got the idea that I was supposed to do stuff until I'd want to get to bed, and after 1000 points, I thought I would "finish the game" but there was no finishing it after all, so I let the "sleep demon"/"monster" drink my sanity away? I guess that's what it did? πŸ˜„

An enjoyable and well crafted game nonetheless!

Lumber Tracks by Black Flag 2022-04-14T08:36:00Z ♥ 1

I lost the axe a couple of times, which made the game fairly difficult to play, but I loved the execution otherwise. The game's art and audio were also fantastic!

Crows by lesinvisible 2022-04-14T07:55:13Z ♥ 1

The visuals and audio were great, apart from that screech which genuinely hurt when I was playing this using headset.

The game's mood was definitely among the best in LD50. I just wished the game could be a bit more interactive or at least more descriptive as I didn't even realise why Seda died. πŸ˜„

Over Horde by StephanTTM 2022-04-14T07:50:11Z ♥ 1

I'm an obvious fan of screen shakes with guns. I used them in my game as well. πŸ˜„ I think you could have used the screen shake whenever the gun was fired and then had some different visual effect when something was hit.

The gameplay itself is fairly simple and easy to get into, which is great! The simple visual style was also endearing.

Indestructible Paws by GameBucha 2022-04-14T07:43:00Z ♥ 3

I don't know if it was an issue with the game or with my system, but the cannon shots were so short that they couldn't possible cover the entire area. I also kept randomly spamming WASD in order to just merge the cats to attack.

I think having that kind of split controls is a cool idea, but it can be very difficult to pull off. You need to focus on two things at once and both are time sensitive, but there's no penalty for either, so I just kept firing the cannon and spamming WASD, without paying any attention to the merging aspect.

The art and audio were great, but I think the gameplay could do with some more polish. The idea of dual controls is ambitious, but not necessary doable for this type of game.

Smog by PKZinpo 2022-04-14T07:21:35Z ♥ 1

The graphics and mood were fantastic.

The writing could have been improved a bit though, as the father changed their mind within 1 second of telling the kid they are too young to know the truth. πŸ˜„

I'm also not sure if I completed the game or if I failed, because I hit the wrong key at the QTE before the house, and then it just ended. I don't know if it would have continued if I had hit the correct key, but when I tried to replay it, I just got a black screen when I tried leaving the first screen.

The game has a definitive interesting quality to it, and if it were to be polished more later, I'd be looking to learn more about it.

Unremembered by White Rice 2022-04-14T07:12:51Z ♥ 0

I agree with the others that the camera was problematic. The main difficulty in the game was that I couldn't see where I needed to go/jump to next and that's something you definitely want in a platformer. The visual style was relaxing and fairly polished though!

Salvation From The Alien Planet by Tomssuli 2022-04-14T07:09:37Z ♥ 1

Like some others have suggested, I felt like a very brief tutorial could have helped me. I placed my first minigun in the bottom of the screen as I was clicking on the other UI elements. πŸ˜„

It's a cutesy game with a simple goal, and I enjoyed the simple graphics. I just think the game could have been a bit more interactive.

Oh, and the calming audio definitely helped with eradicating those "space slugs".

fireme.club by velvetlobster 2022-04-05T18:30:13Z ♥ 0

I played a few rounds and I'm not sure how well this fits the theme as I don't know what the inevitable was that was supposed to be delayed. πŸ˜„

The art style was clean and minimal, and made me think this was intended for a phone. A card battler is fun nonetheless!

The thing that impressed me the most, however, is if you really bought a domain, set up hosting and made a multiplayer auto battler over the weekend for LD. That's impressive. πŸ‘

Unknowable by Briibot 2022-04-05T18:22:10Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the art and audio, but like others said, I found the goal to be a bit mysterious (and not necessarily in the good way). Some extra feedback could have also helped me know if I was doing good or bad.

Heal me, please! by Andrey_Zhukov 2022-04-05T12:01:03Z ♥ 3

The art was certainly a delight. I think your game could have also greatly benefited from any any background music or audio. With a jam entry, you could have been lazy like I was and just fetch some CC0 materials. πŸ˜„ Even if audio isn't being rated, having audio makes the overall experience better. πŸ‘

I do enjoy these discovery type games where you need to mix and match, and learn of positive and negative side effects. Nice work!

Battery Low by Milestone Games 2022-04-05T10:57:59Z ♥ 5

The controls were smooth and the art great. Like others have said, I liked the idea of battery dying as a means of delaying the inevitable, but I agree that with the theme, there should be no chance of completing a level, even if the ending is bad.

The audio seems to be getting stuck across games and can get a bit jarring.

All that said, I did give it a good several plays and I found it enjoyable!

LD49 — Unstable (30)

Alpha Decay by dsoberdan 2021-10-09T16:31:41Z ♥ 1

The graphics were charming and minimalist, so points there. Also, like many have said, kudos for making a game based on real physics (it was, right?).

The gameplay, on the other hand, could have been more interactive. I didn't really know if I was supposed to do something or just wait the first few times. If the game's entire point is to create unstable compounds (or elements), then the gameplay should be clear. Don't make the player wait for so long. I think the wait time was random as well? If so, it really didn't help but make me feel confused if I was even doing the right thing or not. Finally, if the game was based on real physics, then help those of us who've forgotten their physics lessons from ages ago as I had no idea what I was supposed to do with Natrium, I think that was it.

First game jam entries are always tough. For next game jams, you should try on focusing more on the gameplay elements and the fun of it. Most people won't play your game for more than a minute or two, so length isn't as imporant.

From World 1, With Love by Kapricorn Media 2021-10-08T19:36:57Z ♥ 0

Well, I got baited. πŸ˜„

Watching the intro, I immediately thought: "Yeah, there's no way this was done for LD49." but once the real game kicks in, my opinion quickly changed.

The game has a great visual appeal and music to it. I think the difficulty was a bit off as the game was relatively easy, but most levels meant that you needed to die a few times to see where and how the text will appear, so you couldn't just "know" how to play it without trying and dying a few times first.

All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable game.

Watch Your Step! by Rmu 2021-10-08T19:26:18Z ♥ 2

This was certainly a challenge. I can't say I got very far.

Reactor by RefraX295 2021-10-08T19:06:30Z ♥ 1

A fellow reactor game!

I always enjoy this kind of "nifty little" physics puzzle games. The background audio looping got tedious and repetitive very quickly, but as for the gameplay, I'm very intrigued. I even bookmarked the game so that I can give it another go tomorrow as well. πŸ˜„

It is rainy by DeltaMain 2021-10-08T18:53:03Z ♥ 2

This was quite a challenging game. Even after taking a look at the manual and going to play with mini games, it felt like I had no idea what I was doing. Even with the hydrotron, I was spam clicking as fast as I could, and I still couldn't get them close to each other. Maybe I was missing something?

The atmosphere was great and like others have also pointed out, I did enjoy the little interactions you added, like the light switches.

Oh, and PS. Don't have screeching audio at the start. Some of us have headphones! πŸ˜…

Office Novice by HermesEs 2021-10-08T18:04:37Z ♥ 2

I've heard people talk about how things would fall apart without them at the office, but I had never imagined how it'd look, so thanks for this. I especially appreciated the music when things did "get fine." πŸ˜ƒ

I think the interaction area could have been a bit more generous, for getting coffee, water, etc. but other than that, I think it was a really enjoyable and well put together game.

Deathrail by Hotowlgirls 2021-10-08T17:56:02Z ♥ 2

Very simple, yet effective visuals and controls. I agree with @peace-of-cake-games that I would have preferred to map the controls. Whenever I had to jump, I instinctively felt like pressing space.

Nice use of the repeating background as well!

Lovecrafting by Concker_88 2021-10-08T17:49:45Z ♥ 3

The web version seems to be a bit laggy, but regardless, this is perhaps the best game in terms of mood I've played during any LD.

The gameplay, visuals and audio go well together and the approach to the theme was great as well!

The Escape by Marin0104 2021-10-08T14:44:15Z ♥ 1

I had a fair bit of lag spikes, not sure if that was just on my end though.

I liked the game and it gave me some 2012 movie vibes. I would have liked to be able to drive a bit faster, I mean if the ground around me was dropping down and I'd see lava down there, I'd drive over 67km/h! πŸ˜„

I think being able drift around would have also made the gameplay more engaging, but with break essentially being reverse, that was impossible.

StackItToSpace by Sarah 2021-10-08T14:38:19Z ♥ 1

Like others have pointed out, the music got repetitive fairly fast. With these kind of short loops, I usually try looking for something calm and slow that doesn't take as much attention so even if someone figures out that it is looping, it won't get on their nerves (at least quickly).

By the way, **Book title** is also my favourite book!

I think the gameplay would have been more interactive and engaging if the controls were different. For instance, if you needed to drag and drop the objects and they'd move while you were holding them. It'd add a lot to the unstable nature of the game. Currently, getting to the next level was really just a matter of moving ~3 objects on top of each other without worrying about anything.

Watch my nucleus by Aquilart 2021-10-08T13:41:10Z ♥ 1

The first 10-20s or so, I was just watching it thinking: "Am I supposed to do something?" Then a few bits come lose and I stuff them back together. Again, waiting, I'm thinking that this isn't much of a game. Then shit hits the fan and I can't keep up with what's going on. πŸ˜„

It's a bit *unstable* gameplay wise. Like others mentioned, the web version seemed to have some issues with the controls.

Still, this is a solid entry and I had fun!

Contact Nesigur by Trexxak 2021-10-08T13:23:25Z ♥ 1

I thought I'd wipe the JSON and see what happens, and the game crashed. So, yeah, it's unstable. πŸ˜› As some others suggested, enabling some prettifying the JSON file and implementing some error checking would have been a nice touch.

It's a really meta game, that's for sure. Given that we're all game devs here, it's got its best (and only) audience here.

Unstable: Save a Herd of Horses by Alex Chertilin 2021-10-08T13:14:51Z ♥ 3

Just a personal pet peeve of mine for LD games:

The controls should be easy enough that anyone can pick them up quickly without any instructions, or if not, then the instructions should be found within the game.

The audio was good and the game looked nice, but I needed to get out of the game and come back to this page to read the instructions on how to play it.

I was also expecting to "do something" to the burning trees and building, not just chase the horses around. I think the game's clarity could have used some work.

Unstable Load by Jerem Watts 2021-10-08T13:03:58Z ♥ 1

The voice acting was fantastic and not something you often see on Ludum Dare projects.

The reloading could have used some work, I would have liked to see some indicator of the reloading process, but all I saw was "old casings" still being fired from the gun even though I was reloading.

I'm not sure of how this fits the theme though.

There was also a point where the platforms just vanished. If this was an intentional game mechanic, there should have been some indication that it was about to happen. The robots still kept on riding as if there were platforms, so I expect it was a bug.

Gem of Stability by JakobTheQuizGuy 2021-10-08T12:51:09Z ♥ 1

The game was fun and it was an interesting take on the theme.

I think you could have worked a bit more on the clarity and difficulty though. I got to about 230 score and as the yellow and black coloured enemies started appearing, I started to wonder "Oh, these seem to be faster? Oh, they seem to take more hits?" but I think there could have been more to differentiate the enemy types than just colour.

The balancing act paired with the shooting was a nice idea and it made the game a lot more interesting. For future work, if you plan on continuing on this, I'd look into making the game a bit more varied. The only lose condition seemed to be that there will just come a time where you are overwhelmed because enemies are spawning too fast to be even theoretically shot down in time.

Reverse Runner by hiroboto 2021-10-08T12:42:07Z ♥ 0

As others have noted, the perspective was a bit difficult. There was also little to no reaction time to the lasers. I also found myself shot by several lasers firing at once without warning. The movements also felt somewhat unresponsive or detached from the player character.

I liked the soundtrack and I was positively surprised to see someone using Unreal here.

Firestarter by pndaa 2021-10-08T12:32:35Z ♥ 1

I think the controls could have been improved a bit, like "holding down shift" and mouse click would shoot fire/water. I found myself a few times just driving around a small tree. πŸ˜„

I enjoyed the audio and the game idea was cool. I got until level 4, and when I failed, I would have liked to play that level again, but I was booted all the way back to level 1.

Ethereal Runner by jabsatz 2021-10-08T12:22:50Z ♥ 1

I think the tutorial segment should have been more intuitive. When you load all of the game mechanics on the player at the start, via slow loading text I might add, it feels like being given a lecture before you can play the game. I also had to take the dash jump three times as it required near perfect jump, which shouldn't really be required in a tutorial. Finally, the time from death to restart was fairly long, especially for a tutorial segment. I did, however, enjoy the game bringing me right before the point where I died.

The game's mood was pretty good and you guys had an interesting take on the theme. Still, I couldn't help but think the game was fairly slow paced, especially given the "runner" in the game's title.

JennyBee by Iori Branford 2021-10-08T02:12:16Z ♥ 1

I like that you've specified Alt+F4 as the "button to quit" the game. πŸ˜ƒ

I think the game could have used the list of controls inside the game as well. I really didn't know what I was doing the first time around.

The second time around it was a lot easier, perhaps even too easy.

I did enjoy the fact that this has been the only game I've ever played on Ludum Dare with real nature sounds.

RAGE HORSE by SlickRamen 2021-10-08T02:00:07Z ♥ 3

Short and sweet. Really reminded me of Gunpoint.

I think the visual style was on point and I liked where the game was headed. Like some others said, it did feel like the game was a bit slow. My main complaint, however, as a programmer, is that how was it easier to implement a timer to swap the guns than bind the same function to a key? It's not cool when you are firing an uzi and then, in the middle of a shootout, your gun changes to a pistol and you need to start clicking instead of holding down. πŸ˜ƒ

The "shadows" were a bit odd too. Given that the shadows seemed to represent the player's field of vision, I would have expected the area that I didn't see to be, well, more dark or entirely invisible to me. I really didn't know if they were supposed to be a line of sight / field of vision indicator, or shadows. But, this is really a relatively small issue.

It was a thoroughly enjoyable game and I'd be interested in playing more of it. Good work everyone!

Radish Kid Ascension by CozyGamePals 2021-10-08T01:25:23Z ♥ 1

Like many others have said, this was a surprisingly polished and a thoroughly fun game. I wouldn't be surprised if this was around the top games this time around.

It's arguable whether this is unstable though, given how stable the construction materials were, but I'm being pedantic here. πŸ˜„

The entire game was simply relaxing and a lot of fun. The audio, art and the gameplay were all tied well together. Really nicely done!

Tribulation by Adrenallen 2021-10-08T01:09:59Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed the flow of the combat and having the audio adapt to the level of your sanity was a nice touch!

The enemy pathing and them getting stuck at times could have been addressed more. I think that, as others have said, I was missing some causality in the combat. If I swing a wrench/pipe or what it was and hit an enemy, I'd expect them to react to it in some way and not just instantly drop dead after a few swings.

Also, I'm not a big fan of having all of this text here on the submission page. I understand that a lot of effort went into writing the playthrough instructions, but games are about exploration, about figuring things out for ourselves as players. There should be that trial and error and figuring things out for ourselves. Being presented with a wall of text detailing all of that before I even get to download the game isn't a good idea in my opinion.

Finally, mentioning the cut content isn't really necessary. It's a 2-3 day game jam, we all understand that there was much more that could have been done. You did really well with your time and you should be proud of that, and focus on what you did accomplish instead of what you didn't. πŸ†

Left Beehind by mistercheezymoon 2021-10-08T01:00:06Z ♥ 0

A real cool take on the theme, and I thoroughly appreciated the art style. πŸ˜„

For a first jam entry, I think this was a great job!

Unstable Fury by Wizard 2021-10-08T00:56:49Z ♥ 0

Whenever a game starts with a screen full of written instructions, I'm a bit worried. πŸ˜›

I'm not sure about the application of the theme. Having to return to those zones to charge back up and then go back venturing to find a new one to get further didn't feel like unstable. It felt more like being leashed and kept under control.

The game had a pretty good vibe though and I appreciated the audio. The music loop could have been a bit longer or made to loop in a bit smoother fashion. Still, it's a nice entry!

Pile Up Medieval by zimny11 2021-10-08T00:50:07Z ♥ 2

Well, this was certainly a unique approach to the theme.

First of all, I loved that the menu already had interactive elements in it. Very few games do, and this already gave good pointers as to what the game would be about.

I think that the game had a far too high emphasis on random chance. I played the game three times. First time I didn't even know what I was supposed to have done or do when the dragon came. The next time I though, maybe I need certain buildings. But when the type of buildings you get is entirely up to random chance, it reduces player agency. I felt as if I had no real control in the game.

Nuclear Bulwark by FishMasterino 2021-10-08T00:39:09Z ♥ 1

It's a fun little clicker game, but I wish the controls were a bit clearer. There were times when I tried to buy the second gun, but it wouldn't let me. There was no feedback as to why and I had the money to do so. Also dragging the gun to the location also seemed a bit unresponsive, same with the upgrades.

The audio, visual style and animations were all thoroughly enjoyable.

Criticality by 3mpty 2021-10-07T17:33:05Z ♥ 1

Holy shit you got a lot done. πŸ˜„

For starters, the looping background music was perfect balance of calm and relaxing, and long enough to not realise it was looping straight away, and it didn't get on my nerves, so good work with that.

Now, as someone who loves city builders and such, my first thought at seeing the tech trees, building tabs, etc. was "This is gonna take a while to grasp." which is why it took me a few days to get the time to play it properly. πŸ˜„

Thoroughly enjoyable game and great work with it! The onboarding could have been smoother. Long, text heavy tutorials are quite cumbersome.

Fight Or Flight by Monado 2021-10-07T17:27:07Z ♥ 1

Having an intro cinematic for a Ludum Dare game is a rarity. πŸ˜„

The controls took a bit of getting used to, but once I got there, I found it quite enjoyable. The audio and the music are relaxed enough that the climbing doesn't seem all that bad. After having got fairly high up, hitting an ice block and falling back to the start in a matter of seconds, I just decided "Yeah, that's enough." πŸ˜„

I think the punishing element could be reduced a bit, and the controls were a bit odd with the "just pressing space" instead of left or right at the same time, but it was an enjoyable game.

Un-Stabled by Denhette 2021-10-07T17:18:40Z ♥ 2

I got to level 3. Based on this experience, I'm not sure whether the game or its author is the more unstable one. πŸ˜„ Silliness and physics tend to go well in hand!

Atom Forge by Kpedatte 2021-10-05T11:04:48Z ♥ 1

Like others have noted, the game feels a bit unresponsive. It seemed to come with a fair bit of lag and the buttons/handles didn't always react as you'd hope for them to. It took me a few tries to figure out what was going on, but once I did, I do think that it is the start of an interesting game.

The art style could have been a bit more uniform. The level looks cool, but the particles kinda seem like they were a "last minute addition", which they obviously weren't given that they are the key to the entire game. Making the particles easier to see by perhaps having some bright emitters on them could have upped the visuals quite a bit.

The idea of having a beat to which the particles move was cool, but the movement animation could have been spiced up a little bit by using easing effects, for instance.

LD48 — Deeper and deeper (12)

The Sounds of the Cavern by LoicLeGrosFrere 2021-05-14T01:39:36Z ♥ 1

The controls are a bit troublesome given that the game runs in the browser. Ctrl+D, for instance, is the shortcut for creating a new bookmark in Chrome, Firefox, etc. I'm surprised that others haven't pointed this out.

If you had control over the code of the website where the game runs, you could prevent the default shortcut behaviour, but given that the game is on Itch.io, I would consider revising the controls.

I would also avoid using text-based tutorials, people tend not to read them. It becomes especially difficult when you try to be fancy and make them look like a part of the backdrop. Ask yourself, for what reason would you want the tutorial texts to blend in with the background? I, for instance, know that I had a lighter (right?) but I didn't know how to use it πŸ˜„

It'd also be great to get to the cave a lot quicker. We want to play your game, so let us get to it asap! πŸ˜„

There's a lot to improve, sure, but I think this was a fun and interesting take on the theme!

Rainbow Fall by Vitor Barbosa 2021-04-27T15:17:47Z ♥ 3

I had fun, but I wish you'd have implemented a highscore system to keep players (like me) playing it again and again to best their old scores. The gameplay itself was smooth and the audio & visuals were well done!

Canyoneer by Kieron Woodhouse 2021-04-27T15:05:23Z ♥ 1

I managed to glitch the rope and climbed quite deep. I took a few dives before realising how to properly control the character. πŸ˜„ All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable little game!

Untitled-1.jpg

Deep Mine Time by Grewoss 2021-04-27T14:03:01Z ♥ 1

As someone who also created a "digging game", I appreciate the unique take that you took with yours. It's a nifty little game. I would have perhaps added a slight nod to the fact that you can buy more time. When I got to gameover scene the first time, I was also expecting some way to restart the game without having to reload the app.

Still, like so many have said before, nicely done given that you used the engine for the first time. πŸ‘πŸ»

Into the Castle by groverburger 2021-04-26T21:08:33Z ♥ 2

I played until the final boss and I'm still amazed at how smooth the game was. Nicely done!

48 Leagues Under the Sea by Micia 2021-04-26T21:07:55Z ♥ 1

A nice entry! The rooms gave it a sense of progression, but I would have considered having some "flicker" or other indication where the enemies in the room are. It felt a bit weird doing 360 no scope manoeuvres whenever I entered a new room. πŸ˜„

Drill by Laurari 2021-04-26T21:06:23Z ♥ 2

Took me a few tries to get to the game, but once I got there, I did enjoy the gameplay! The camera could be a bit smoother, but otherwise a great experience!

Rusty goes Deep by etom 2021-04-26T20:30:46Z ♥ 1

This was a cool idea and played nicely. I think you could have done the lighting a bit differently. The extra lights that you get aren't really enough to illuminate where you are going enough, i.e. you just need to remember where all the traps are and then use the lights to see where your character is going, and like someone mentioned, the light seemed to be only enough for a single attempt.

The Red Crystal by Bastienre4 2021-04-26T16:44:45Z ♥ 1

Unless I am mistaken, this is a COMPO entry, but in your video you are clearly working for 72 hours, which would make this a JAM entry.

Flake by Modoc73 2021-04-26T14:55:50Z ♥ 1

The visuals and the audio work well, and I enjoyed the controls, but like @welby, I don't think it's necessary to start off by lengthy opening monologue that mocks the player. It's an attempt at humour, sure, but such humour can be a big turnoff for many players who don't even know what your game is yet.

The Meaning of Life Is by AfroAnt 2021-04-26T13:25:58Z ♥ 1

A really interesting concept with a lot of trial (and error) for the player. With enough time, this could go really deep. πŸ‘

Rootss by antonishig 2021-04-26T13:16:04Z ♥ 1

I liked the idea and I think this was headed in a nice direction!

I'm not a audio guy either, so I can't really comment on that, but the sound effects were quite sharp and loud. Given how the game is about a relaxed topic like a tree's roots growing, the sound effects could have been calmer.

The controls could have probably been a bit smoother and more intuitive. It took me a while to realise what was going on and I had to go check out HELP menu twice.

Still, nice work! ❀️

LD47 — Stuck in a loop (7)

Bear in the Loop by TureGrappa 2020-10-07T15:25:19Z ♥ 1

A bit unpolished, but that's what game jam projects typically are. I really enjoyed the game and I think the approach to the theme was interesting.

Cosmic Escape by Firstdream 2020-10-07T04:54:02Z ♥ 0

This was an interesting one and I could see myself playing this quite a bit more if it were to be developed further. I thoroughly enjoy playing around with radial gravity, but I think that this game would have benefitted greatly from a simple tutorial. For instance, just showing an overlay that explains how you are supposed to adjust the gravity of the planets via left AND RIGHT clicking. I was just left clicking things and wondering why nothing is happening.

Warumwar by Kridotsuk 2020-10-07T04:45:19Z ♥ 0

An interesting concept, but I don't think that it quite works. For instance, if the first three key moves are supposed to be repeated (and if that's the only mechanic) then some of the levels would be impossible to complete. Still, even if you had "up, right, right" set as your moves, you could still move down if you wanted. But, like I said, I enjoyed the concept, I'm just not sure if I understood the controls completely or if there was some bug or other issue.

Minotaur's Labyrinth by JOrbits 2020-10-06T15:17:23Z ♥ 1

I found this to be a great game. Well done with the design and the length. Had it been much longer, it would have worn out its welcome, but at that length, it was just perfect.

Addicted by Kortimaso 2020-10-06T14:49:29Z ♥ 1

Congrats on your first jam project, and don't worry, even veteran jammers (not that I consider one myself) run into all sorts of issues and cut their games short. On to the next one!

Crazy Trains by Falzock 2020-10-06T14:44:04Z ♥ 0

Like others have said, the game could have used a bit clearer instructions, but in general it was a relaxing experience.

Defuse in under 5 by Darylsteak 2020-10-06T07:46:23Z ♥ 0

This was perhaps the coolest game I've played during the last 3 Ludum Dares. It took me a few too many times to realise what was going on, but I thoroughly enjoyed it!

LD46 — Keep it alive (4)

Until We Freeze by icxon 2020-04-21T09:44:01Z ♥ 1

I enjoyed your game. It had a similar idea as mine, i.e. keep the fire alive and don't freeze, but yours was a lot more mellow and interactive approach. Nice job!

Keeping SNES Alive! by drludos 2020-04-21T07:18:22Z ♥ 4

I am absolutely amazed that someone would create a SNES game in this day and age. Along with Dreamcast, SNES is my all time favourite console :D Oh, and the game is cool as well! It was a nice little nostalgia trip.

Keep Joe Alive by Sanguis 2020-04-20T23:37:21Z ♥ 2

The beat gets repetitive after a while, but otherwise a really cool game. I tried seeing what happens to Joe if I fail at the coffee stand obstacle, but after several restarts I just couldn't get one. I guess that random for you. Nice work!

under the sun by somethinboutgames 2020-04-20T14:39:41Z ♥ 0

I don't know why, but when the first level with the "zig zag" pattern path came along, I thought it was a downward slope and I just ran straight into the pit. :D

LD45 — Start with nothing (24)

Nothin' To Muffin by SP3sheep 2019-10-10T11:19:36Z ♥ 1

The collisions were a bit off, i.e. getting hit by cars when you are already standing on the other side of the road or when you are waiting for the car to pass, but otherwise I'd say this was a nice entry. Well done!

ARCHITECT by Lucien Catonnet 2019-10-09T20:16:21Z ♥ 1

Simply put, this is a cool little mini game! Nice work!

POLYMON by PIXAMENTORY 2019-10-09T12:48:37Z ♥ 1

I couldn't play it on Chrome, but it did run on Firefox.

The jam's theme was perhaps missed, or at least I think so, but I found this to be a novel and a quite fun game.

Zen Man by Team Catwheel 2019-10-09T12:43:29Z ♥ 1

Well, this was certainly a unique entry. Interesting concept and art style!

Nothing is Everything by Yayiest 2019-10-09T12:38:09Z ♥ 1

I've frequently thought about making a game with graphics like this. Nicely done!

Day Zero by Emma B 2019-10-09T01:45:36Z ♥ 2

This game is phenomenal! Not only does it perfectly capture the theme, it is also polished, fun and it looks great! Awesome work!

Adventure Bag by Raphiell 2019-10-08T23:38:37Z ♥ 1

To be completely honest, I was shocked when I saw the instructions screen full of text, but my pain was made better by the background music that seemed almost like it was taunting me at the time. :D

Quite a novel game, I must say!

EVOLVE by Carpin 2019-10-08T22:34:40Z ♥ 1

I didn't realise at first that the webview was too narrow and I didn't see the amount of money I had in the top right corner before I set the game to full screen. It's a nice addition to the clicker genre.

Rag Racer or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the bump by CaptainDreamcast 2019-10-08T21:21:57Z ♥ 1

The game was quite weird, which is appreciated when one of the voting categories is humor :D I also appreciated the homage to those old racing games.

Nothing to jump by Malai 2019-10-08T21:17:45Z ♥ 2

The level design could be more intuitive. I was already trying to figure out why I couldn't jump and then I just decided to "go with it", after which I found the jump pickup. I'm also personally not a fan of games where you are almost guaranteed to fail at some event because you can't know ahead that you were supposed to do something specific. I'm talking about the "double jump with feint platform". But, some people enjoy them. Overall, it was a nifty little platformer.

As many have already said, the shadows were too glitchy. I think it would also be a good idea to give each enemy character a flashlight because now it looks like the characters are walking in complete darkness with no vision. Also, it is generally a good idea to spread the controls for two hands in singleplayer games like this. Having Q and E as action buttons and WASD as movement is difficult. You've got something cool to work with here!

Surprisingly polished for how much work had gone into it. The game is a lot of fun!

I can't seem to play your game on Itch.io. I have a button "Restore game", but after I press it, the screen just goes blank.

The Persistent Thief by Darylsteak 2019-10-08T11:03:56Z ♥ 1

Like so many others have said, the controls were difficult and the sirens also followed you to menu screen. The first time I tried without the tutorial, I just got shot right away... so I figured the tutorial would probably be for the better. :D

I really like where this game is headed and I think it has great potential. Well done!

Angry Words by Madbeagle 2019-10-08T10:53:53Z ♥ 1

I appreciate the subtle criticism of the theme! I found Angry Words to be quite a fitting name for the game and the game itself was an interesting one. I got to level 5 and I'll perhaps pick it up again later.

The built in mouse sensitivity was so high that I had to adjust my mouse to the lowest setting. A neat project, but like many other projects, mine included, it could do with some polish.

Fruit Mamba by FrozenCow 2019-10-08T10:14:29Z ♥ 1

This game is a lot more polished and well-planned than I would have expected. It was great fun and I think it'd work as a great base for a larger release! Nice concept and great execution.

I've got to agree with @5n1p3r-4r73m1s about the controls. I had quite the trouble with trying to accurately control the cat. The game has a novel concept though and even some humor, which was a welcome plus!

Props for the unique art style!

I'm not sure if the dialogue was necessary at the beginning, but I liked the overall style.

Castaways by GhostGoatsGames 2019-10-07T23:42:18Z ♥ 2

This was an interesting and fun game. With further polish, I think you could have something great on your hands!

Peak Performance by mmason 2019-10-07T23:36:54Z ♥ 2

I can't really understand the game. The instructions could be a bit more clear, or maybe I'm just dumb :D

The background music is absolutely fantastic.

Fanfare Fantasy by Valden 2019-10-07T22:54:49Z ♥ 2

I liked the idea, but I had quite some trouble realising what the arrow-key gameplay mechanic was at start as the indicators were quite difficult to see. At the beginning, with just the drum, it was also quite a dull sound for a rhythm game. Still, I can see you guys take this game to great lengths if you pursue it further!
