Apr 23 09:15:00 A Super Mario Summary Very nice, complete entry. The game might be a little too hard - I prefer less slippery controls (although these are pretty much the same as in Mario, as I remember). It's great though, the save system pwns! Very nice graphics!
Apr 23 10:36:00 1h 21m Electron Cloud Interesting gameplay, but I agree with ratking above. I liked graphics and the intro. Cool music. Where's the source?
Apr 23 10:46:00 10m 00s Ok...Now this is akward! Loved it. Great story, awesome graphics! And in Poland people also say "what a small world it is" - "jaki mały ten świat", when they meet someone they didn't expect to see. Very good take on the theme.
Apr 23 10:52:00 6m 00s Wunderworld Wow, it's a massive thing. Pretty impressive. Love the visual style.
Apr 23 10:57:00 5m 00s CAPSULE [web] I don't know if I like it as a game, but wow - do these HTML5 entries become better and better or what? I freakin' love the art style. And maybe it's not really a game, but it is fun in some weird way. :)
Apr 23 11:27:00 30m 00s Invaders! Sound effects were great, and the game plays well. I also think that there should be some penalty for firing shots. Huh, but I couldn't stop playing until level 11 (433400 points), then I gave up - and what the hell man, I suck? ;p I did better than everyone! ;)
Apr 23 11:39:00 12m 00s A Load of Bulls... I liked it, especially the world surface roundness. Some bull sound when they're around would be great, or some radar or something like that. Where's the source?
Apr 23 11:55:00 16m 00s Rockland Works on Win7. I like the graphics - too bad there's no sound (next time use bfxr, autotracker-bu, or anything, just for blips and stuff), but overall it's a pretty nice entry. Congrats! Oh yeah - intro animations are cool, but it would've been nice if I could skip the intro text.
Apr 23 12:16:00 21m 00s Save the tiny world! Looks awesome, but I wish there was a better way to deal with those Pigz! ;) Great graphics.
Apr 23 12:25:00 9m 00s Microbial Can't run on Win7 x64, GeForce 8800GT. Got XNA and all that stuff. Nothing shows up, prog doesn't even start. :(
Apr 23 12:40:00 15m 00s Subatomica Awesome, especially since we went for similar take on theme (yours is on smaller scale). Vector graphics look awesome. I'd prefer keyboard controls and the possibility to reset the charge to neutral (or even better: reset, max positive, max negative) and more puzzle-like levels (static charges), less action-like ones. Anyway, great game. Some sound would be nice.
Apr 23 13:20:00 40m 00s Tiny Visitor Didn't work for me in Firefox: after a while I could hear short music loop and that's all. Then I clicked "play flah in the full screen", I saw a star field just for a fraction of second... and still doesn't work (flash movie not loaded). I tried downloading the file and other stuff, but nothing helped. Download link gave me error message, so I figure there is something wrong with the server: I tried to play other games there - they work but only when fullscreen. Damn, I wanted to see those beautiful graphics in action.
Apr 23 13:35:00 15m 00s dLeIaFtEh Too short, repetitive music, but I liked graphics a lot. I wish there was some more gameplay here.
Apr 23 13:57:00 22m 00s Tiny Island Adventure Awesome graphics. Feels polished and I love the "flying islands" topic. :D
Apr 23 14:22:00 25m 00s Fusion Time! Love the topic and the graphics, but I'm having performance issues. Other than that, it's a pretty cool entry.
Apr 23 14:48:00 26m 00s Tiny Civilization Great art style, but it's easy to loose track of all the people. Selecting more than one unit would be cool, but for 48 hours - it's cool enough. :)
Apr 23 18:02:00 3h 14m Cloud Realm I almost freakin' hate you for those beautiful graphics! Had a lot of fun playing this one, although I'm not a fan of gliding - just can't seem to be able to get it. Nevertheless, an awesome entry. Love it.
Apr 24 08:08:00 14h 06m Tiny World: The Musical: The Game I predict this is getting #1 in audio category, regardless whether voices are 100% synchronized with the background tunes or not. :> The song is depending on how good you are playing, and this bought me. Awesome, awesome idea.
Apr 24 09:41:00 1h 33m Conqueror I like the educational value, but damn, the game is hard.
Apr 24 10:02:00 21m 00s Rambros It certainly looks and feels awesome, but is there any point to the game? Watching the screenshot here and in your journal I'm not sure if I have the right version. I killed all the guys and that was it, nothing happened. Don't get me wrong - it's great, but your entry's description and screenshot suggest that there's more content than what I've seen.
Apr 24 17:18:00 7h 16m Atom Grid Wow, very clever. I was aiming for the same topic (chemistry, bonding atoms into molecules) but your approach is very impressive. I like it very much, but endless mode is a little too hard for me, as I don't see clearly how many bonds can different atoms make (I'd prefer the white dots to be near center of the atom). Great entry.
Apr 24 17:28:00 10m 00s Memento XII Perfect, as usual. Actually no, I feel that no words can give justice to this masterpiece.
Apr 24 17:53:00 25m 00s Nook Very nice graphics. I had some some performance issues, but nothing game-breaking.
Apr 24 22:18:00 4h 25m Phobius I won't add anything new if I say that collisions is something to work on - but I really liked character animations. Not bad for a first jam entry!
Apr 24 22:35:00 17m 00s Ayond I used arrow keys. WASD doesn't work properly for some reason. Took me a while to try and kill myself and I don't quite understand how do I choose places that stay or disappear (after the ending text I assume there's a point to that). <br/>It's not a game, maybe some kind of experience. Visually interesting, this could be better with some kind of explanation. <br/>Also, I didn't see the characters I've seen in your journal being developed. Did I miss something?
Apr 24 22:54:00 19m 00s My Little Planetoid Feels very much complete, and a great LD entry. People already wrote about mouse control, and I didn't find any more flaws. Music is great.
Apr 24 23:05:00 11m 00s ANT SURF HERO: THE SURFENING Great idea regarding the theme! Riding friendly ant which kills your enemies? Awesome! Hilarious ending. :D
Apr 24 23:15:00 10m 00s c!ph3r Very nice overall feel, the game is quite polished! Great entry!
Apr 24 23:25:00 10m 00s Tiny Worlds Whoa, so many comments. I feel I've got nothing to add, besides maybe my own words of praise. Sometimes simple mechanics make a very interesting game and that's the case. I actually like the music, and definitely appreciate the effort. :)
Apr 24 23:34:00 9m 00s Tiny World! Graphics certainly fit the theme! As others had pointed out, some music would make this game much better.
Apr 25 07:59:00 8h 25m Get The FROG Off My World !! Very cute graphics, but yeah, ending the game after fixed amount of time would work better if the player could do something more than yell. After some time it's rather impossible to keep up with the frogs, but it's fun anyway. Great entry!
Apr 25 12:09:00 4h 10m Recluse Wow, I've never seen such mechanic. Awesome. Lovely graphics, too!
Apr 25 12:16:00 7m 00s Ra Ra Great, simple idea forged into an awesome entry! If you added online multiplayer, I would play this non-stop! :D
Apr 25 12:32:00 16m 00s Fractality Wow, and all of this done in plain AS3. Wow, really great. I'm astonished - this is the best use of mechanic with fractals in a game I've seen so far. The only things that would make this even better are some sounds and better controls.
Apr 25 14:14:00 1h 42m Fracuum Great execution of this interesting idea. Awesome game. I liked the music very much, too.
Apr 25 14:26:00 12m 00s Scape Not very innovative, but well, I did finish it so it's definitely fun. Great graphics &amp; audio - I wish there were more levels! :P
Apr 25 17:43:00 3h 17m Soul Searchin' One or two very hard jumps, but I played until the end. Awesome, just awesome.
Apr 25 18:07:00 24m 00s Inside My Radio Beautiful, but was kinda hard, even with the visual helper. But a great entry. So far I'm pretty sure this is going to be in top 3, if not the first place in the jam.
Apr 25 18:49:00 42m 00s Drop of Life I've lived 94 rounds and reached a population peak of 87 cells. Pretty cool. I've seen similar games during my first LD, but I think this one would be among the better ones that implement such mechanic. Making a true game form Conway's automata is hard, because player has very little control over how structures interact when trying to destroy. I used some stable structures to survive and gliders to attack, but this doesn't really help when blue cells interact with red ones. It's hard to predict what will happen. <br/>The idea is perfect, but this was done before and I'd definitely like to see some additional mechanic for better control over what I'm doing. Graphics are awesome.
Apr 25 19:01:00 12m 00s Pixel Wars The flaws are already pointed out by others - I really like the destructive terrain - awesome. This could be made into something more interesting! Btw. there's scaling in FP, only you scale graphics, not entities.
Apr 25 20:24:00 1h 23m Corky I've seen only one different room and mine didn't save, I think. Other than that, it's a nice idea and I'd definitely spend more time playing if it worked better.
Apr 25 20:32:00 8m 00s Gnome Alone Great, funny topic, but I find it graphically a little inconsistent (great title screen, great gnome art - rest kinda doesn't fit in) - but hey, it's playable enough for me. For a first attempt, this is actually quite good.
Apr 25 20:47:00 15m 00s Tiny Droplet What others said. It's a very good first LD entry.
Apr 25 20:54:00 7m 00s Tiny World of Bees A little more gameplay wouldn't hurt. The strongest part are definitely graphics.
Apr 25 20:58:00 4m 00s Tiny Man Nice idea and consistent graphics, but controls are a little buggy.
Apr 25 21:06:00 8m 00s Superpixel So hard! Even on easy mode! *_* Love it!
Apr 25 21:15:00 9m 00s Astro Break Wow. This is one of the most complete entries I've seen, in terms of graphics consistency, overall quality and gameplay. I've just spent like a half hour playing this. :D
Apr 25 21:26:00 11m 00s Tiny Cavern Kinda trippy, but I also kinda liked it. It's actually everything I wanna see in first-timer, and even a little more, because of its artsy look. I've played thru all three endings, so it certainly entertained me.
Apr 25 21:37:00 11m 00s Gum Crisis In Pipe City Worms are very cute, especially when the worm on the top has the full "device" and says "heart". :) However, some minor flaws are: low friction (this is very frustrating when playing the one pixel thing) and repetitiveness. Other than that, it's a solid entry and a good take on the theme.
Apr 25 21:47:00 10m 00s Downsize the World! This actually could be much better, even as a prototype, with demand bars much shorter and the possibility to win without a billion clicks. Music got quickly repetitive. The idea was actually interesting and innovative - a pity you didn't finish it.
Apr 25 22:01:00 14m 00s Berry Hunt Those eyes! What have you done to his eyes! I mean, the cat is so scary, I'll probably have nightmares! ;) The game is fun, but controls are a little too slippery.
Apr 25 22:31:00 30m 00s Minisk, You Will Very nice - feels very much complete. I like that there is a shop available, those turrets help a lot! Great animations, consistent graphics - liked it very much.
Apr 25 22:35:00 4m 00s Fancy Seeing You Here This is pretty nice. The only problem I've had is that - at least in Firefox - I couldn't see the full game screen - only after opening plain swf link I could see all of it.
Apr 25 23:36:00 1h 01m Brevity It's one of the best tower-defense games I've played, mechanics-wise. It's very, very fun - I've spent just over half hour playing. I've noticed that if one survives the beginning, it's pretty easy later. One bug: when constructing a specific one tile width path from blocks and towers, bacteria keeps getting stuck on the start tile. A pity there's no end condition. Very entertaining game, anyway.
Apr 25 23:49:00 13m 00s Grow! Controls are really cool. I'm also interested if that was a concious decision: this is something actually innovative in my opinion. Decent first LD entry.
Apr 26 09:04:00 9h 15m Tinysasters Played it on all of the difficulties. The game's too easy - but other than that, there are no flaws. Looks beautiful, the idea is great, music is okay... Wow.
Apr 26 09:18:00 14m 00s Microscopia Finished. Awesome entry - I actually LIKE that there's no straight explanation what player has to do (it's simple enough, really). Music is a bit repetitive, but fine, graphics are simple, but consistent with gameplay. Very good take on the theme.
Apr 26 09:32:00 14m 00s Pow! Pow! Pow! Looks really nice, feels very consistent, but is hard as hell - to the point where it's being almost unfair. Almost, because I can continue as many times as I want, which is good. I was able to finish it, but it was a little frustrating (not realising I could shoot the spikes was also the issue here). Kinda short.
Apr 26 09:37:00 5m 00s OWWW Truly in the indie spirit, but damn - too short!
Apr 26 10:23:00 46m 00s Tiny World Pretty hard, mostly because player cannot stop the Planetoid - but it's a nice twist.
Apr 27 05:59:00 19h 36m Predicament Audio didn't work for me (Firefox), so until I install chrome I'm not rating it, but the rest is really great. Definitely one of the best entries.
Apr 28 15:25:00 33h 26m Exposed Awesome. I killed so many of those creatures... but is was worth it! Harrharrharr!!! &gt;:D
Apr 28 15:32:00 7m 00s Cage Poor Hank! But "f**k yeah", I saved him! :D
Apr 28 21:18:00 5h 46m Tiny World Big War Some sound would make this more appealing, and the graphics are really nice, but in terms of gameplay - I'd say war is pointless because of many reasons, and the only one here is that player cannot win. I can see the message, and I agree completely that war is pointless, but I'm not sure if this work delivers arguments that lead exactly to this conclusion. <br/>On the other hand - maybe just thinking about this sentence is enough. Anyway - it's a good entry, but I'd like to see some more depth in terms of gameplay.
Apr 28 22:11:00 53m 00s The Small World of Professor Strange I am biased because I love MUDs. So, gameplay is awesome. I loved the way you merged an oldschool text game with those very good graphics. It's just great - it kinda fits together, like milk with coffee or corn flakes, or pick-what-you-prefer... <br/>Having a list of commands without having to type 'help' in every location would be helpful, but then you probably should change the commands/object model a bit to make it more flexible. Auto completion would be just as great.
Apr 28 22:44:00 33m 00s Atom Planet SO PERFECT I wanna cry! ;_; Awesome!
Apr 30 09:24:00 34h 40m Casal Navity It's not fixed. I had to change the name of 'r.png' to 'räg.png' for this to work. <br/>The game's pretty neat, although it would be great to make the text flow faster. On my third playthrough I've drown in blood and didn't want to read the full text again, but I assume there's more gameplay. I'd like to see the rest, but without sitting through the whole text again.
Apr 30 09:36:00 12m 00s ANtopia Audio is astonishing. Great work!
May 2 08:20:00 46h 44m Flea Circus I also think that the flea is not visible enough on that background. It's a very good entry anyway, and the music is great, but it needs some polish and more levels.
May 2 08:30:00 10m 00s Another Kind of World Very consistent - I really liked the graphics and audio. I'd prefer the bombs to have some real (as in, parabolic) trajectory, jumping with W and no pushing back when throwing bombs (I fell too many times and had to reset just because of this), but these are just minor complaints. The game's pretty good anyway.
May 2 08:38:00 8m 00s Millinaut Feels very polished. I especially like the palette choice &amp; audio.
May 2 19:27:00 10h 49m Asylum This would've been so, so, so much better with some audio. The idea, graphics, overall feel are awesome - but lack of music (especially since the main character is supposed to be hearing voices) is a bit disappointing. Of course this is a great entry anyway, so: Good Job!
May 2 19:33:00 6m 00s itty 8bitty Great! Simple, playable, challenging, and great music. Awesome.
May 4 18:11:00 46h 38m This Precious Land I've spent so much time on this! It looks great - for some time I didn't get that there was so much to do, but now, as I've seen most of it (I think!), it's just awesome.
May 6 13:05:00 42h 54m Tiny Shards It's an awesome entry for 72 hours of work. The graphics are decent, and the audio is awesome - kinda pity it's just some royalty-free music, available for everyone and not created especially for the game, but either way, it adds to the mood greatly. <br/>The story was kinda obvious pretty fast, and has broken relationship issues (mom and dad divorce issues?) written all over it - on the other hand, I can appreciate the depth as it is, since it does feel polished and complete, and suits the theme quite well. Good job!
May 6 13:23:00 18m 00s THE TINY PIRATE KNOWS MAGIC Great, funny, unexpected ending. I tried to lose, and the island got smaller and smaller, but I guess the pirate was bluffing with the whole bottle thing.
May 6 13:44:00 21m 00s Dude, where's my planet Lovely, lovely graphics. Audio also works really well, and the gameplay is pretty solid. However, without checkpoints, the game does get frustrating quite soon. The monster level was too much for me, even with 'Z' cheat. I actually would prefer some kind of rope-like mechanic, jump button, or anything that would give me more control.
May 6 14:00:00 16m 00s Free Donutia It's really hard to control the enemy's towns, and the game becomes quickly kinda frustrating. Needs some more polish, but there's quite a lot here for 48hours of work anyway.
May 6 14:15:00 15m 00s Apocalypse Inc. Very good. Shooting sound effect is the only thing I actually didn't like - this and that there's no source code anywhere to be found. If it's a compo entry, I'd like to see the source.
May 6 20:00:00 5h 45m Haxe Planets A very good idea, but lacks in execution. After n-th time eaten by those flying things most sane people will ragequit. On the other hand, graphically it's very consistent, the audio is very good and I personally love that the game can be played on Android. It's a good compo entry but I'd like to see it a little bit more polished.
May 6 20:14:00 14m 00s Little City Awesome. :)
May 6 20:28:00 14m 00s ARACHNID Great idea. I love the sandboxy feel to it, it's really awesome. I wish there were some levels, or some goal to accomplish - but it's very, very entertaining nonetheless. A pity that sound doesn't work in firefox.
May 6 20:40:00 12m 00s Boxed in. Very good, fun gameplay. Very challenging, though - but I liked it, especially the tilting mechanic, as well as the music. Awesome.
May 6 21:08:00 28m 00s Kumiho Great graphics, but controls were sometimes unresponsive when trying to shift while shooting. I ragequitted after seeing third boss battle (the one with constant missile fire) screwed up for 10+ time, when the boss was actually already dead, but still firing missiles, because of controls lag. <br/>Don't get me wrong - the game's beautiful, and I love shmups but I wish there was at least something to prevent hits for a small amount of time, more hits allowed, or controls that do not ever lag, even when pushing all available keys. <br/>Overall, this isn't that much innovative and doesn't feel connected to the theme, but is great in every other way.
May 6 21:24:00 16m 00s Escape from Minimars Very good entry. I love the music. Have seen some framerate drops in last 2 levels, but nothing game breaking. But while it's so fun and pretty, I don't see the connection to the theme. Kudos for sharing the soundtrack!
May 6 21:59:00 35m 00s terminus Have seen 3 endings. Very good, excellent work. I wish there was some music, but it's addictive anyway. I'd prefer 'X' + arrows for control.
May 7 08:51:00 10h 52m Angle Isle Very nice game, although I couldn't figure why sometimes I can flap three, sometimes four times when not in 'windy' areas. It's a fun, great game, and the music is especially awesome.
May 7 09:26:00 35m 00s Ancestor's Sword Got stuck for a while there, but was able to get to the ending shown in the walkthrough. Great game - with beautiful graphics, good music (kinda reminds me of Dizzy game series) and interesting mechanics. Liked it!
May 7 09:38:00 12m 00s Backyard Pirates Looks cool, but is too easy, has no sound, and there's little variety in gameplay. I can see something much bigger out of this, like some other people suggested here (different weapons, upgrades, etc.), but it's a very, very good start.
May 7 09:54:00 16m 00s Gulliver Music is so AWESOME. The game's decent, but the music is just fantastic.
May 7 15:20:00 5h 26m Tiny Flat Great graphics! I wish there was some audio, it would add greatly to the mood. Oh, and more gameplay! But that's actually good, since it proves I liked it enough to play something similar, but longer. :)
May 7 15:32:00 12m 00s Dr. Biology's Educational Game Yay, biology! Great idea - don't know how innovative it is, but I find it pretty clever and fun to play. I don't see that much connection to the theme, but I find it very entertaining anyway.
May 7 15:39:00 7m 00s It's a Small World: The F.P.S. Too short and not very fun, but I do appreciate graphics and the general idea. This kind of game should've had something more in terms of gameplay. It's playable, but I'd like to see something more.
May 7 15:47:00 8m 00s Tiny Maze Speedrun It's a maze game. Pee joke is a plus, but it's not the type of game I want to play all the time. That being said, it's not a bad entry. Pity there's no audio, but it's a very good project for a first-timer in JS. Nice job!
May 7 15:58:00 11m 00s Angstrom Found some bugs, but the graphics and audio are fine. It's an impressive LD entry, but seems buggy and levels transition is something I wish was there (in the beginning I thought it's a bug). I like the story idea, but after loosing a couple of times, didn't continue. Plus for the title and particle physics references. :D
May 7 16:15:00 17m 00s Nineties Holywood Hacker Very good idea, but the game is much too hard, at least when I'm forced to build path through red rooms. Other than that, the game feels very complete and fun to play.
May 8 07:37:00 15h 22m Tiny World Cardgame When I ran the game, I thought 'meh, some card game'. After seeing the tutorial and playing my first game, I can say now that I'm REALLY impressed! First, it's done in Ren'py. Wow! I didn't know that so much mechanic can be put in game using this tool. Great, innovative application! Secondly, I was *sure* that the game will be stupid and that there will be some silly move that will make the mechanic broken - but I was wrong! I mean, there's an issue when both players would use warriors all the time (see @demonpants), but this can probably be easily fixed. <br/>The game is actually very fun to play, and there's also deck building - wow... Great work! <br/>Aside from great gameplay, I appreciate making music on your own. Flute doesn't hold the tempo, but I'd imagine that's indeed kinda gnomish. Sounds pretty nice, anyway. Awesome entry.
May 8 07:50:00 13m 00s Tiny Adventures In SPACE Ending is great and funny. That being said, there are some flaws - most of them already pointed out here. The main problem for me is that there's no challenge aside from asteroids in brownish colour, which made it hard to spot them on black background.
May 8 08:19:00 29m 00s No Space Doesn't look astonishing, but the gameplay is quite deep and fun. Theme-wise it's a little stretch, but it's so entertaining, I didn't really care. I really like the general idea, the Kubrick's film reference, and the overall feel to it. Really impressive for 48hours of work. Good job!
May 11 15:21:00 79h 02m Tiny Wizard Feels very complete, liked it very much.
May 12 21:30:00 30h 09m Epic Scale Warfare Having seen your messages all over LD, I wanted to post my opinion here and see what you've made, but since it doesn't work under Firefox, it's kind of ironic. Besides, exactly what @johnfn wrote before. <br/> <br/>Personally, I am glad that LD isn't just browser-only games. I'm more interested in source code of games written in C/C++, or what can be achieved by Ren'Py, or something similar. If I cannot play some game because it's e.g. Mac based, or Linux only, I can either try to work out the source and build my own binary (if I REALLY want to), or just not rate it (just like I'm not gonna rate your game, because I cannot run it). At the same time, there's no point encouraging the creator to make a game for my OS if there's no such possibility (de facto saying that this person should change his/hers language of choice to one I consider better). <br/> <br/>People really are aware that web entries get the most rates. But LD isn't about who gets most rates, it's about making something and getting *constructive* feedback (be it in form of rates or a comment) from users using OSs the game's intended to run on. I'd rather wish to create a good Windows-only entry (and there are quite a few of those) than a shitty web based one. <br/> <br/>TL;DR - Didn't rate, doesn't run for me. :(
