[Portal Re:/ Flashed]

Feels rather clunky to control. Could definitely use in-game instructions for controls, as they are unintuitive.

ThePixelDud responds:

In game instructions as well as control rebinding is planned.

['Curse of the Sock']

This is great! A few bugs I'd like to point out...

- On Firefox it doesn't seem to stop scrolling with the arrow keys (I played this by opening the frame in another window).
- In the area with the final boss, the swinging axe sound still played even though there weren't any axes.

Otherwise I don't have too much to complain about. Nice work!

Butzbo responds:

Those are good points, I made a few quick updates fixing those details you mentioned. Thanks! :)

[Opposites Attract]

The game is pretty solid, but the game speed is very inconsistent. I suspect that the game speed is tied to the frame rate, might be worth using delta time to fix that issue.

Spider53 responds:

Yes, unfortunately back when I made this game I made it aaaaall with frame-based timers and stuff :/
I just posted this for fun and was too lazy to rewrite all that stuff. However, I haven't experienced any inconsistent speed issues, so I can't really comment on that.

[Hoisted]

Honestly, this isn't bad! The game controls pretty well, even if it is lacking polish in some areas other people have already noted.

rmkubik responds:

Thank you! Trying to get some of those areas polished before the jam deadline. :-)

[Jimmy]

Pretty fun, though I do have a couple of notes.
- There's no indication of how much ammo you have left, so it's hard to know when to reload
- The score counter doesn't seem to reset when you die. Probably worth fixing...

AramB responds:

Will do!
