Apr 23 15:46:00 MyLittleWorld Poor kittens. I had trouble with the collision and jumping, it made going over water rather tricky sometimes. But then, sometimes it didn't register that I'd fallen in water. <br/> <br/>Rotation effect was cool, though.
Apr 23 15:50:00 4m 00s Space Bear ... and here I'd thought I'd made the only entry that was a shooter that had rainbows and bears. <br/> <br/>I dig the graphics. Plus bears.
Apr 23 15:54:00 4m 00s Alienbomb Defender I didn't really get how to play. I mean, I got the controls and all, but a bit more about the rules would have been helpful.
Apr 23 15:59:00 5m 00s Protector I dug the music. The dead planets were somewhat hard to see, though and I never got terribly far into the game. I like the concept, though.
Apr 23 21:47:00 5h 48m Bunny Cube Graphics were cool, the story was... interesting? I genuinely wanted to know what was up with the cube. Maybe I missed a step somewhere and got the bad end. <br/> <br/>I had a hard time navigating... I got that it was a cube, but it never really fit together in my mind as one. Also a more subtle hopping sound might've worked a bit better.
Apr 23 21:57:00 10m 00s Tiny Quest I dug the graphics, the GameBoy vibe really adds a lot and the game felt pretty meaty. The jumping felt a little wonky because it seemed very linear? It wasn't that big a deal, though, because the game was more about exploration and I never felt like I was asked to do tricky platforming, so it's all good. Yeah!
Apr 23 22:08:00 11m 00s Montezuma's Tomb Ahh, super old school. Brutal, though. I might take another crack at it later. A few new-school concessions like infinite lives might've actually made it more enjoyable in the rushed LD context. Still, I keep wanting to go back and play it again so...
Apr 23 22:10:00 2m 00s Ra Ra One of my favorites so far.
Apr 23 22:16:00 6m 00s Dave is in a Fish Tank This is really silly!
Apr 23 22:37:00 21m 00s Hoperay Aw, man. The third pattern seems to be my limit. Pretty fun, though!
Apr 24 00:11:00 1h 34m Lighthouse The music was great and I loved the idea. I think the levels were randomly generated? I felt like that might've worked against it as I was pressing the reset button fairly often after getting stuck and on occasion I felt like I was just resetting until I got a favorable board rather than solving the puzzles. I'd love to see the concept expanded, though, I think there's enough there for a full game.
Apr 24 03:02:00 2h 51m Rock 'n' Slash I got a score of 582! Would've liked to see more... stuff, but that's how Ludum Dare goes. Pretty fun 'little' game, everything felt good and ran well.
Apr 27 05:25:00 74h 23m Home is where the robots are. A couple thoughts: <br/>It seems to run really fast on my machine, which makes it hard to play. Jumping in particular is problematic. I mention it because I'm not sure that's the intent. <br/>Also, when you're moving I think it'd be helpful to try to get the camera to move ahead of the player, especially with a game like this. <br/> <br/>The graphics are nice and cartoony and I like the concept, it could probably be expanded.
Apr 27 05:32:00 7m 00s Crystalbots I had trouble with reloading as well. I'd hit the key and nothing would happen then a while later, it reloaded. I guess I expected that hitting 'r' or whatever instantly reloads, but it seems to start some sort of reload process, so it just wasn't what I was expecting (or it's a bug, I dunno!) <br/> <br/>Music and art and sound were all nice, and arena shooties is always fun, though.
May 5 17:52:00 204h 20m Naos I dug it. Music was cool, the art style worked. I didn't feel terribly invested in my painting, but I still liked the concept.
May 5 17:56:00 4m 00s TINY LIZARD SWELL WORLD I thought I could see the lizard, but it turned out to be some dirt on my monitor.
May 5 18:10:00 14m 00s Atomic Galaxy Factory This is one of my favorite games so far. It's a bit like a combination between defense games and triple town. The balance feels a bit off because it's an LD game, but I found myself playing it for a lot longer than I had expected.
May 5 18:22:00 12m 00s Boxed I really like the concept and I feel like it could be fleshed out. Bugs did make the game somewhat difficult to actually play, and having things on one universe immediately affect the other one sometimes meant stuff seemed to happen almost randomly. I didn't realize at first why things might flip out. If it were clearer what was happening, it might've been more fun, but I still enjoyed the game.
