Nicely done. Gameplay and graphics are great, and it seems as if the project itself was well-scoped.

Cooking 'round the ClockAbsolutely gorgeous game. The visuals are very good, the controls are pleasant, and it's a very good use of the theme. Great job!

The Bravest WheelGreat entry! Controls are smooth and simple and the game looks awesome. Very well optimised as well - it ran silky smooth on my 2017 MacBook Air, which was struggling with quite a lot of 3D entries this Jam. Very good choice of the music as well!

Pain(t) AwayWow, seriously this is the best game I played so far in the jam. I loved the simplicity of it and the super responsive controls. Even if it is simple it has a very nice polish and the music and SFXs are great and fits the game perfectly.

Olympic Ragdoll JumpingThe images and video look great ! Unfortunately I cant start the game no matter where i press or what keys i hit, and the text which explains the controls gets stuck on the new game button ... anyone else had something similar ? maybe its a Chrome issue ?

RevolutionGreat music, great sense of speed and progressions was fun all round.

Island StrikeAn excellent endless runner that uses the assets available in a very creative way! I enjoyed the music, and most of the sound effects… except the thruster(?) sound effect. That one kinda felt like nails on a chalkboard to me.
Ultimately, gameplay wise, I don’t see much wrong. The game plays well. The challenge builds nicely. The game feels (control wise) very responsive!
My only thought… The sections that have both a platform and an orbiting ship/shuttle… perhaps the platforms for these sections should have two possible ways through instead of one. If that shuttle orbits in front of my only way through, then I’m doomed to loose. I think, as a player, if I’m going to loose it should be because I couldn’t time my controls right, not because I was simply unlucky and was presented with no way through.
Over all, this is a great game!!

GyroomWow thanks for the thorough review, ObsidianBlk!
Excellent point about the overlap between platforms and shuttles - this happens because of the procedural level generation that I scrambled to assemble at the end of the jam. Completely agree in that there shouldn't be any unfair disadvantage because of how the level generation works.
If I do develop this further, I'll make sure to add much more platform variety, more variance in how the obstructing traffic moves and some logic to ensure that there is always at least one good path at all times.
What's your highscore, btw? :)
Visually impressive and solid gameplay, the engine sound though couldn't get used to it.

Space Color WarsTight mechanics, great presentation. One tiny thing you could improve: The unlit side of the space elevator is quite dark. Some global illumination or a second, darker light source would help.
edit: oh and great sense of speed!

BLADESURFERYou made it feel razor sharp to play, it felt great to thread the needle. It was a nice simple concept that was really well polished and executed. The star parallax was a nice visual touch.
