[Reincarnation: ADDO Remastered]

Pretty good- I felt a little nostalgic seeing this here!

That- said... it does fall into the issue of 'I've no idea what my goal is, I'll keep clicking stuff until stuff happens'

In the room with the dude sleeping, I thought my goal was to either sneak past him or find something evil he did. Kinda felt like stuff was happening- like... I never quite knew what I was trying to do 90% of the time and when it all came together it... still didn't quite make any sense.

Still- brought me back to the old point and click style games ^^ I do have a bit of a soft spot for them in all their weird jankness-

[Necrowave 5.0 (Old version)]

Very cool looking game! It has a lot of style to it- the ledge grabs felt a little janky though and I genuinely thought the giant zombie wasn't an enemy as they were hobbling around slowly.

The game feel just needs some tweeking with it's platforming mechanics

[Krampuslauf]

Went from feeling like some kind of cool demon creature to being one shot by a toddler 5/5

[64 Bits - Kirby and the Forgotten Land Demake for NES]

Holy heck- this kinda perfectly replicated my childhood games, games I had totally forgotten about ^^

Really nice work! Love the mechanics and the animations, a very talented team made this :)

[Orderless: New Skies]

Great graphics, good level layout, love the mechanics and the player characters seem like they have a fun personality to them.

Honestly, really enjoyed it ^^ I did find beating each boss a little anticlimatic, they seemed like important characters that might of had some kinda backstory/ might showup again but then you kill them and... they're gone- just vanished.

I also found that pumping Dot with health and SP while focusing Cass on offense was a little broken... Dot felt nearly useless as even with a focus on health the bosses would do enough damage to down her in a few hits- I just would switch to Cass and beat the bosses in two turns ^^' (Bleed, Strong hit. Avoid boss attack, Strong hit, strong hit = dead)

Aaalso- using a turn to give double damage usually felt like a wasted turn at the moment, as I could just hit them twice (More chance that one of those hits would be a crit too)

I like it though as a prototype for the mechanics ^^ I think with some development and time this could be a really good game! Looking forward to it!

M-made is 72 hours? Super impressive! It's a very simple game, but I love the graphics and ideas! Nice work!

[Pad of Time]

Booted it up, loved the graphics and the style- the tutorial showed some interesting promise- but it fell apart for me with the level design and story ^_^'

Dropped into the game with 'This guy made a cool invention! Let's try it out! Go find a none descript item or some sorta thing to do!'

I kinda shrugged it off, then proceeded to wander aimlessly- unsure if I was going the right direction or even if I was in the right time zone.

Then I started attacking the enemies- it's a little janky but I could make do... it just felt kinda weird spawning into a new area with the time travel mechanic then just killing everything in sight before wondering if I was in the right time zone.

But maaan- I love the style and it doesn't play terribly, it's missing a little polish here and there. It just feels like it needs more of a goal/ story- along with some changes to level design.

"Mark created a time device, the device broke creating time warps. Find the broken pieces"

That would give a bit of a goal, replace the time mechanic with a simple 'Go through a portal to end up in a different time'- that'll remove the guesswork. Possibly simplify the level out so it doesn't feel like we're exploring a maze.

But hey, that's just some of the stuff I was hoping for ^_^' It might just not be my kinda game. It's hard to make a game and I really like the design of it- hope things go well for ya'll!

[Pixoul's Tower]

I loved it! Awesome work dude :P A little bit of an awkward ending but I can understand that it's a Jam- super fun stuff :P
