I think this a really cool idea, I haven't seen any other game do a similar take to this in the jam. I liked when it had the level mirrored on both the top and bottom of the screen, I felt like that was a really cool effect.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest making the top and bottom levels differ in some way to force the player to have to guide two separate characters through. Forcing the player to make jumps or wait for a platform on only one side could result in some very interesting gameplay.
Here is mine action-packed stealth game with a twist. You are never able to see everything, the faster you move, the less you see. It's a game of tactic, do you want to rush, but risk getting caught? Or you want to go slow and scan the surroundings first? The choice is in your hands! You can play it in browser here: https://edensoft.itch.io/break-out-plan
Fun game! I liked the simplistic visuals and the instant restart upon being caught. The menu animation was super good as well.
I did find a bug where if I slashed an enemy close enough to a wall I could actually fly out of the map and get stuck outside. Other then that this game is incredibly polished and incredibly fun!
Overall amazing game!
would be cool if you could check out me and my friends first game jam (its a webgl) that we are quite proud of. Hope you enjoy :) https://nakel-games.itch.io/densemetal
This is a really fun little game! I like the way the gameplay mechanics force you to prioritize the red-core enemies over the blue ones. The music also fit perfectly with the visuals.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest adding shadows to show where the red-code guys are going to land, I got crushed and he just kind of bounced off my head. Make an enemy landing on you an instant kill and that would make it super intense. I also suggest adding a way to shoot upwards, a number of times the blue core ones would be to high for me to hit. Lastly, when the ship is loosing altitude or gaining it, you should have the clouds in the background move up and down to reflect that change.
Overall great game, with a few small changes, I think this could be amazing!
I'd love some more feedback on my game :D https://slimburger.itch.io/rising-smoke

Really cool idea! I like the stress the game puts on the player to keep in the air as long as possible. The feeling of flying through the air and slashing up enemies feels great and is a lot of fun!
The only thing is I had a hard time telling where enemies were in relation to the player and had to entirely rely on the indicator to figure out what was close.
Overall super fun game!
https://itch.io/jam/blackthornprod-game-jam-3/rate/898885 This is my game. Please check it out

Visuals on this game were really amazing and I thought the concept was super original as well. I felt like the music and enemy design was super good too.
The only improvement I can suggest is some sort of damage indicator on the enemies, I had no clue if I was one shot or twenty shots from taking them down.
Hi ! This is mine , is my first BTP game jam , it's kinda visual novel game. https://juan3a.itch.io/notchat
PC game incoming!
Rate R.E.D by JakeAAwesome for Blackthornprod GAME JAM #3 - itch.io
Edit: added screenshots

This game is beautiful! I love the simplistic visuals and the idea of bringing light to a dark place, the red rain effect was also super cool. The fact this only has two, well, now three ratings is a tragedy. I can tell a lot of work went into this and I truly hope you continue this in some way, or expand on it some.
I think it would have done better if it was a webGL build instead of a downloadable game. I think another title could have helped too, R.E.D. doesn't convey enough to make people interested in playing.
I did encounter a few problems, I hit the first red portal a few times, figured I couldn't do anything to it then kept running past and later had to restart because I couldn't light up the next area properly. I also fell out of the 'Don't' room and got stuck.
Overall this is an incredible game and I love what you put together, I just wish more people got to experience it!
It would be great if you can rate my game. Thank you. Play City Level first.

Interesting idea, I like how much mileage you got out of so few actual level designs.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest taking away control when the character dies, a number of times I died, was able to reach the end and glitch myself to the next level. I think you also need to explain some of the mechanics more then just the level title. On a number of them I was very confused what to do or what I could do.
Overall an interesting concept.
I like the idea of this game, having health take up inventory space. I like that it starts up from a command prompt, I think that's really cool. Unfortunately I had an extremely hard time playing or even figuring out how to play. For that reason I am going to forgo ranking it as I feel I can't be fair in my rating if I can't really play.
Thank you for your feedback. I assumed this problem would arise since I decided to scrap any sort of tutorial in order to make more content and add SFX. If I could have changed anything about this jam, I would have added a tutorial. For now, I can throw some instructions on the game page (which I hope is allowed). I'd be glad if you take another shot at my admittedly confusing game after I add some much needed instructions. Thank you.
Edit : You'll find the instructions on the game page's comments or the jam page's comments.
This game is super fun and feels like a true arcade game. I like the idea of the virus multiplying and raging when there is only a few of them left. Everything felt really good, I also liked the weapon swapping mechanic, this game overall feels very polished and I really enjoyed it.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest having the score do something like unlocking the other weapons for the rotation, that would give the player a sense of forward progressing and a reason other then getting a high score to keep playing.
Overall super fun game!
Here's mine, It's a 2.5d graphic style based narrative game. https://itch.io/jam/blackthornprod-game-jam-3/rate/899464
Hey. Would love to see your feedback: https://createev.itch.io/greedy-honeypot-in-rock
Saw that was your first game jam, good job! I really liked the animation on the bees behind the honey and how you had one show up and wait a moment before chasing after the player. The music was really nice too.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest on having a high-score screen instead of just restarting the game, I know I got more then 34 but don't know what my actual final score was. I also suggest adding in some additional enemy types to help switch up the gameplay some more.
Overall, fun little arcade game!
Hey please enjoy my game https://itch.io/jam/blackthornprod-game-jam-3/rate/897902, I hope its to your liking.
Interesting concept for a game! I liked the gameshow vibe and the overall feel of the game.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest showing images of the items your looking for either at the beginning before the level or by hovering over the words. I also suggest giving each object a rotation to jump to when picked up, I had a lot of trouble finding the knife and even picked it up before but didn't recognize it as it wasn't on the small edge. Lastly, I suggest playing into the game show theme more and making up some prize for the player based upon how far they got instead of just going to an end menu. You could even make it a little system where you keep playing the game show trying to get objects or skins for your character.
Overall neat concept!
Fun game! It was like a bullet-heal but instead of dodging bullets you were dodging food. I really enjoyed the concept. I especially liked how the character's sprite changed during runtime to reflect the health level, that was a nice touch.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest having the final score on the end screen, I have no idea what I finished with score wise. I would also suggest you show where people are going to spawn, most health I lost because someone spawned right on top of me. Lastly, a little more animation on the character could have helped. If you didn't want to make any more sprites, you could accomplish this by just rotating the sprite back and forth and spawn smoke particles on the feet while they move. That's the style I went with in my game and I think it worked well.
Overall fun game, it gave me some good laughs!
Hey, I hope you enjoy me and my friend's browser game: https://i-am-penguin.itch.io/maze-of-the-neglected-triangle
I like your game! I went for the 'shoot and you loose health mechanic ' too. I enjoyed the screen shake and the quick flash of particles when a triangle was destroyed. I also appreciate the controls on the back of the tutorial page, a lot of the 50+ games I've rated don't even have that. I thought the game played well and was fun.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest making the power shot go through enemies, I think that would help it feel even more satisfying and encourage the player to line up cook collateral kills. I also think the triangles that shoot should have some form of indicator that they are going to shoot to make it easier to dodge.
Overall a really fun experience!
Interesting game! I enjoyed the story and the feeling of progression throughout the game. I like how you reused the boss as an enemy later in the game as well as had different types of projectiles. I was a little confused by what the graphics meant but I enjoyed it overall.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest optimizing the game for speed running by putting the enemies on a timer of when to shoot and adding some sort of high score based on time for the main menu.
Overall, fun game!
Hi, I am gonna play your game right now. Here is mine KeyKey. I hope you enjoy it and thank you in advance :) (PS: In the game you can use a wave bomb holding your key and then releasing it, in the KeyKey itch.io page you can find some help and a video if you have troubles with that, but no worries it is really simple).
https://picodaddy.itch.io/keykey

Hi there! 馃憢 if you feel like having a go at another 2D platformer, I made a momentum-based one with speedrunning in mind! Far from perfect in design and programming, but I鈥檓 happy with the art and music side of things. 馃槂

I dont know if you are still trying out game but,
I would really like some feedback!
https://dosui.itch.io/zombie-killer . Its my first game jam and it was fun but the WebGL on this page dont work but on this:https://dosui.itch.io/zombie-killer-web. Sadly only in the download version the sound effect and music work. Have fun!
Interesting game, I liked how all of the zombies had health bars, it made it really easy to focus on who to kill. I also liked how the turrets could damage the zombies but mainly aimed at the player, that was a nice touch.
If you wanted to improve, I suggest some form of UI scaling. All of the menus appeared super small on my computer and it was hard to tell what most of them did.
Give it a shot would love to hear what you think! https://itch.io/jam/blackthornprod-game-jam-3/rate/899786
Interesting game, I was able to win with a score of 18,000 (no idea if that's good or bad). I haven't seen that many space shooters in the jam so far. I was kinda confused by what item did what and didn't want to look away from the screen long enough to read what it did, I suggest adding a list of them to the 'help' screen to help better inform the player.
Overall, interesting game.
