It looks like a professional game logo. Animations are well made, and I felt I was playing a complete game. It was not obvious what I was supposed to do, but I managed to clear the game after reading the description. Would love to see more levels, more floors, more elevators, more obstacles, more monsters. It’s a good concept, and I think it has potential. Add some ambientmusic and sfx for a greater experience, well done.</p>\n","games":["Bubble Burst"]},{"at":379729241,"author":"Jonathan Vallet","login":"jonathan-vallet","gh":5329099,"text":"<p>Nice atmosphere for this puzzle game.

Thanks for your submission to js13k!\nI’m sure you’ve worked hard on your game, but I’m not aware of how much time you spent on it, so excuse me if things I mention were in your mind, but got left out in the rush of the month or just because you hit the 13kb limit :)</p>\n<ul>\n<li>My first impression and understanding (before playing the game, only reading the description, screenshot and title):\n<ul>\n<li>This is a puzzle game, or maybe physics based where I need to order people.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>Great work on:\n<ul>\n<li>The graphics. Staying on one color is a bless and a curse. It’s easy to make your game unreadable, but you rocked it.</li>\n<li>An interesting mechanic. You could probably expand from this single idea of connected lifts.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>I liked that you:\n<ul>\n<li>Took care of some small details. I assume not many people would try to get the lift below the screen and the fact that you handled it was a bit of joy :)</li>\n<li>Focused on quality over quantity (even if you didn’t intend to go further).In a game jam context, you can hardly playtest anything, so having a single level and not many ways of going wrong helps people finishing the game up and have a complete experience, even it feels very short. This is much better than having 5 levels that drag a bit and have the majority dropping half-way through because they can’t guarantee they will be in for a good time.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n"},{"at":379766790,"author":"Ryan Tyler","login":"tyler6699","gh":50468,"url":"https://carelesslabs.co.uk","text":"<p>Clever idea, I serve my master well it seems.
