|---|---|---|---|
| Fake Gold | Very cool game, it sorely lacks polish. <br/>Source is missing. | ||
| Caverns | I found them all :) <br/>Quite fun to play with, but more of a toy than a game really. | ||
| Candle | Cool game mechanic, very nice graphics and audio, but the gameplay is missing. | ||
| The Killbots of Cavern Station | I didn't like the way you had to move the camera around, but apart from that it's an awesome game. Good job. | ||
| Collapse | Very fun. <br/>Perhaps coloring the inside of the walls would be nice. | ||
| Cave Bounce | Cool idea, but it's quite buggy the first time I played when I tried to get the six coins up the left I went through the wall to the "You win" screen. Playing around with it a bit, it seems you can often go trough thin walls. | ||
| Lazor Dentist | Original idea, but as many others I found the controls got in the way, WASD or the arrow keys would probably have been better. <br/>Also, no source. | ||
| DiggR | Cool game. <br/>The bombs felt under used though | ||
| FallingTown | As others have said: cool idea but not very fun. | ||
| Shelter From the Rain | Music and sound are really great. <br/>The in game highscore is also a nice touch. Digging into the cave seemed a little buggy as you could easily get stuck. It took me a few tries to realise you had to dig to the lightbulb. <br/>The menu screen is also quite nice. <br/>The tutorial is a bit buggy, it worked the first time and after that it wouldn't reset. <br/>All in all it's a great game. | ||
| Angry Caverns | Neat little game. The music was nice. <br/>The scoreboard is an evil ploy to get us hooked trying to beat each other's scores. We must resist it. :P <br/>The randomness of the critters' movement was a bit annoying when trying to time an attack. | ||
| The Eternally Grey | Really cool idea, the intro and messages were nice touches. <br/>However I didn't like the gameplay that much: you never seem to have enough stalactites and they're never at the right place. Also it's frustrating when the miners come in, take three steps and start digging, perhaps minerals should only be available in the middle area. | ||
| Dwarven Rock Smash | Love the menu screen with the dwarf running after the rock. <br/>Fun little game. | ||
| Alien Artifact | I won, but it looks like the guy exploded when he flew off into space. :) <br/>Simple but solid game. | ||
| Refuge | Very fun. <br/>It would be nice if it told you how many aliens you took down in each chain reaction. <br/>The lighting is great. | ||
| Ascent | Yay, I escaped the cavern with only 94 deaths. :P | ||
| Mr Monocle And His Marvelous Madcap Underground Race | Brilliant. <br/>I didn't like the fact that Mr Monocle seemed to crash in the walls while he was still at what seemed like a safe distance away, and the music was a bit annoying. <br/>But aside from those quibbles, it's a wonderful game. Funny, polished (the menu screen background was a nice touch as was having a scrolling credits screen), and solid (if not very original) gameplay, five stars. | ||
| NICE CAVE! | It was fun exploring the cavern, the room with water was especially nice. <br/>The penguin sound was very annoying and the mouse seemed overly sensitive; it would have been nice to be able to play with just the keyboard. | ||
| Shafted! | Rather nicely polished :) <br/>Having to use the mouse on the menu screen is annoying though. <br/>Unlike the screenshot, there were no bats flying around. Perhaps this a bug in the OS X version? | ||
| Miner Distraction | It doesn't seem to work, I just see a page with an ad and a broken applet icon underneath. | ||
| Into the Pit: The Endless Caverns | Rather simple gameplay but quite polished entry. <br/>A leaderboard would make it really addictive I think. | ||
| Cave Miner | I collected all the gold I could find but nothing happened. Is there a way to win? <br/>The ladders were tricky to grab on to when jumping. <br/>Cute graphics. | ||
| Contact Lost | Slowness + no way to restart made my give up sooner than I would have liked. <br/>But with a few fixes it could turn into a really cool game. | ||
| Kavern Keeper | I love this little game, the music is nice, the graphics are very nice and it's just fun to play with. <br/>I wish you could see your minions' health and maybe tell them to drop their shards so you can get a goblin to bring them back, but it's already very nice as it is. <br/>However when the knights are fighting your guys from below you don't seem do any damage. | ||
| Cavernous Shooter! | Pretty difficult on a laptop without a mouse. <br/>Otherwise a very nice entry. | ||
| mjau's entry (unfinished) | I kind of like the static effect in the background. | ||
| Sally Spelunker in CAVE EXPLORER | Amusing :) | ||
| Super Bean Kid | Fun but tough game, it took me forever to win. | ||
| I'm In A Cave | The cave is so small <br/>And the monsters are scary <br/>'cause they want my rope | ||
| Cave Fishter | Confusing at first and then very hard. <br/>I got up to 10 before giving up. | ||
| Token Cavern | Nice music, but the controls felt a bit odd and I wasn't quite sure what to do. | ||
| A CAVE FOR MY BIKINI BABES | Odd game. <br/>Are you supposed to get money for killing cops? The instructions seem to suggest otherwise. | ||
| Grue | As Cosmologicon mentioned conio.h isn't portable, however I was able to compile it mentally and play it using only my mind! <br/>But I still lost. Maybe I'll try to beat it again later. | ||
| "Life is Guano and Then You Die" | Looks cool, but on my computer (OS X) it doesn't seem to accept any keyboard input so the bat just falls to the ground and that's it. :( | ||
| The Walls are Not Cheese | The particule effects and digging were very nice. <br/>There isn't much to do though. <br/>Also the displayed area was taller than my screen which is kind of annoying. | ||
| Celtic Cavern | Kind of fun, but it feels like something is missing. The rainbow health indicator is a nice touch. | ||
| Moleshroomciraptor | It's possible to get stuck in such a way that you can not finish the level or die and since there's no restart level button that effectively means you have to start over from the beginning. | ||
| LoneStranger's Caverns | Yay Kroz. :D <br/>I won. :) <br/>I wish you'd included an alternative to the numpad for those of us with laptops. | ||
| Cave Diver | It didn't seem to work correctly, the diver moved very slowly and invariably got pinned under one of the rocks that fall at the beginning. | ||
| Mole Cave Tactics! | The controls killed the fun, additionally it seemed quite unstable it crashed twice before I gave up. | ||
| Ninja Spelunker | Quite addictive, I felt compelled to continue until I finished it. <br/>I like that it has an end and there are indicators of just how close you were to finishing so you might as well try again for the 300th time (perhaps playing with a trackpad rather than a mouse makes it harder). <br/>On the other hand I hated the sound. <br/>Finally, having a rather wide variety of different messages when you kill an enemy was a very nice touch. | ||
| Cavern Retreat | Neat idea, but it was buggy, often when I'd leave a screen I'd almost instantly get thrown back to the one I came from which was than filled with water. | ||
| Rex's Cavernous Survival Horror Game Thing | The blood, gore and dirt particule effects were nice, but overall the game isn't really much fun to play. Also there's doesn't seem to be a way to restart the game. | ||
| Cavern Copter | Shouldn't this be called Canyon Copter? | ||
| Cavern Relics | The backwards text the gets fixed when you get the power to look back is kind of funny. | ||
| Caves And Bombs | Very fun little game, a little polish and it would be great. <br/>Pushing the gasoline cans around was a bit tedious though especially near walls. | ||
| Dwarf Caverns | I had to move the gfx directory and the world.dat file to run it (from source). <br/>Started out looking like a great retro entry, but it crashes too much. <br/>Here's a traceback if it helps: <br/> <br/>Traceback (most recent call last): <br/> File "main.py", line 868, in <module> <br/> turn_right() <br/> File "main.py", line 418, in turn_right <br/> draw_viewport(viewport, wld, pos, dir) <br/> File "main.py", line 334, in draw_viewport <br/> vis = wld.get_visible_blocks(pos, dir) <br/> File "/Users/nils/Downloads/ld15_caverns_by_frimkron/src/ld15caverns/world.py", line 155, in get_visible_blocks <br/> row.append(self.get_block_graphic(block,(x,y),dir,i)) <br/> File "/Users/nils/Downloads/ld15_caverns_by_frimkron/src/ld15caverns/world.py", line 227, in get_block_graphic <br/> if BLOCK_DATA[block].has_key("graphics") and BLOCK_DATA[block]["graphics"]!=None: <br/>KeyError: 'r' <br/> <br/>It's a shame, I really wanted to play this one. If you update it, I'll definitely check it out again. | ||
| Tim Viana's LD15 - Final | It seemed to have performance issues, it would skip quite often. <br/>The controls felt unresponsive, sometimes double jumping wouldn't work. <br/>It was way to hard. <br/>But the music was rather nice. | ||
| Cave Flyer (blue) | I like the way combat works where you don't kill the enemy directly by hitting him but by pushing him into the walls. | ||
| Kung-Fu Kaverns | Nifty little game. <br/>Minimalist but brilliant all the same. | ||
| Cavern-Ball | I think making a pinball game was a pretty cool idea, but it's a shame you made the table so tiny. | ||
| spooky cavern | I wandered around aimlessly for a while and than it crashed. | ||
| 7 hours mini game | I won. :) <br/>It's cool that the level editor is in the game. It lacks polish but that's understandable since you made it in only 7 hours. | ||
| Brinie | I managed to win by pressing the capture button when the Brinie was on the net, but I'm not sure what the other buttons do, the first seems to attract the boids and the second seems to put them to sleep. <br/>Overall a confusing game. | ||
| Cavern Defense | Too buggy to be playable. | ||
| Xue | The parallaxing background was very nice. It was odd that you could fly over into the "egde of the world". When I did afterwards pressing 'R' didn't return me to the beginning, it just reset my fuel and score but I was still lost in a sea of black. | ||
| Jello Cavern | +1 for using org mode for your todo list. :) <br/>Shame you didn't finish though. | ||
| The Evil Dark Cavern Which Leads Straight To Death | Yay, I rock! :) <br/>The graphics are really nice but the game is really way too short. | ||
| Caverns of Adventure | It has a win condition, but it doesn't have a lose condition. <br/>Too bad you didn't have time to finish it, it has the seeds of a cool little game. | ||
| F = ma | I disagree with the other reviews, I think the music and rotating very much add to the game: it's supposed to make you feel dizzy! That's my interpretation anyway. <br/>A bit too hard though. | ||
| Cave without Story | Letting us shoot stalactites that drop on enemies was a nice touch. :) |
