Here you go. First time any of the team have participated in a Game Jam. So far our struggle is that a lot of raters don't see how it matches the theme. It's subtle, and shows more the farther you get in the story.

Im checking rn!

Ren3Submitted5 years ago

Ok I'll try to be constructive. You're game looks actually pretty good and the world is well setup. But the problem comes becuase of the nature of game jams, people are less likely to wait for long winded games. You need something at the beginning that will make you want to play the game more or for longer, whether that be through an interesting tutorial or and interesting start to the game. So your game could be the best thing in the world but it takes too long to get into it and it wont last in a jam. I still rated well considering this! Do try out my game :P

Thank you for your honest feedback. We'll keep this in mind for future Jams. We'll be sure to return the favor when we get to your game.

TaitoCodeSubmitted5 years ago

Hope you like it :)

Ren3Submitted5 years ago

Your style is really, really clean. Like easily 3rd fave, it's utterly adorable. I just think the game was a bit too dark and I didn't really know what to do or where to go! Such a shame for something that looks so pretty.. Will rate in a couple secs

Be sure to check out my game too!

TaitoCodeSubmitted5 years ago (1 edit)

I already did, but i gave it a fast look, later i will play it more

Edit: well i just played it, nice work!!, my first ending was neutral, also the narration was really cool.

This was mine and my cousin's (Macintrash) first jam... The stressful part I noticed right away was just how many submissions we are all competing with! That and we are worried people don't have enough time to reach the ending for the "full effect" it has to offer.

Ren3Submitted5 years ago (1 edit)

part of the sad thing about game jams I think.. longer games dont rly get credit unless they have some sort of hook at the beginning, even tho the ending could be amazing, chekcing out ur game right now

Hey, such a serious job! great to see the game not only messing the controls, or presenting false walls :)

Ok, to my one: https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/477124

I was extremely busy at start of jam, and when it left only four days of submission, I got an idea. I realized, that I can create something not so complex, so i stoped on a simple economy game. And I made my game completely solo in three days. Also, at saturday, I became sick, so it was really hard to finish. During creating my game, I met several challenges: to find a proper tool for creating music, and to deal with it. To write some fun texts, which is necessary for my game - I`m not a native speaker, so it was really difficult. And, turns out, to create, balance and test the economy, even very simple, it`s not so easy as I thought before. So, I learned some new things, and got some fun, and it`s great.

Ren3Submitted5 years ago

Wow! Your english is great tho!!! I'll be sure to test out your game after you put so much effort into learning how to do so many different things! Be sure to rate the game, I'll do the same with yours :)

Hey here is our game https://mithul.itch.io/the-amazing-death-race. Although it is just my 2nd and the first for others in the team, we had a lot of fun and learnt a lot.
Do note the spoilers in the description in case you dont see the lie ;)

Thanks for playing our game :)

Not a web based but just wanted to put it out there as even it's our first time too! 🙌

Please try out our game. We are a team of two. This is our first time participating in a game jam and it's only been a couple of months that we got into game development. Hope you enjoy it.

Any criticism and suggestions are welcome!

This is my first game jam too. Initially made huge plans that I couldn't possibly have completed in a week. Realized this after 3 days. Changed things and then came up with this (browser game): https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/477120

Playing your game now. Will rate it. :)

I hope you enjoy playing this game. Lots of work went into it. It's about a robot AI that tries to tell you what to do. Will you listen to him? Find out by playing.
