|---|---|---|---|
| Aug 27 19:08:00 | Convergence | couldn't run it, but my Java is up to date. Used Chrome on WinXP | |
| Aug 28 08:54:00 | 13h 46m | Out of the Sea | I'll try again on my desktop, because it looks intruiging, but it didn't run on my Windows7 laptop |
| Aug 28 09:09:00 | 15m 00s | Gene pool! | I liked the midi music and the ability to design your own species. |
| Aug 28 09:18:00 | 9m 00s | Adlus: Mouse Of Truth | weird, psychedelic and unexpected. I liked it a lot. |
| Aug 28 09:28:00 | 10m 00s | Growing Tree | Good effort for 48 hours and first game! The view was a bit confusing, you couldn't always see where you were going and where the enemies were. |
| Aug 28 13:33:00 | 4h 05m | ROLL PAPER, ROLL!! | Not really an evolution theme (unless I don't get it), but pretty. |
| Aug 28 13:44:00 | 11m 00s | TONE | Looked good, just not my kind of game. I didn't see the connection with Evolution. The music sounded good, maybe a few sound effects would be good as well? |
| Aug 28 13:50:00 | 6m 00s | Curiosity, The Untold Story | I like my bullits like this :) |
| Aug 28 14:07:00 | 17m 00s | An Astronomical Affray | I really loved the music! The game was a bit too hard for me to really see evolution in action; too much multitasking (steering in one direction and aiming in another). |
| Aug 28 14:13:00 | 6m 00s | Disgruntled Paddles VERSUS Evolution | Sorry cant play it either. Based on the comments above it is because of the java version. Someone suggested reposting a recompiled version. I think that is allowed within the rules, so maybe? I am curious about your game |
| Aug 28 20:32:00 | 6h 19m | Universal Adaptors! | I especially liked the description of the lifeforms. I didn't see many of them, because control of the fish seemed very random to me. |
| Aug 28 20:49:00 | 17m 00s | Winding of Isaac | Looked good, and playing on a touchscreen was a change. I did feel uncomfortable bypassing the official app channel and it was buggy. Music was good as w ell. I am curious about corona now. |
| Aug 29 09:08:00 | 12h 19m | Chromasome | Smooth gameplay on my Android phone. Pixel look always works for me. I did have to force-quit the application. I wasn't always sure when dead pixels happened. I think this could easily be sold as an app. |
| Aug 29 11:05:00 | 1h 57m | Aqualution | there is a very nice mood to it, for which the music is probably for a big part responsible. Played smoothly. It took a long time though, before an interesting evolution came along (other than growing) so for I while I thought it was repetitive. |
| Aug 29 11:27:00 | 22m 00s | Digital Generation | for some reason the graphics are wrong. It made it unplayable (but maybe it was because I used the cheat key at level 1, because I had NO idea what else I could do to escape). |
| Aug 29 11:30:00 | 3m 00s | Unstealthiest Ninja | oh dear, Java in a browser, always tricky. On Chrome and Internet Explorer it was unplayable for me because of graphical corruption. |
| Aug 29 11:49:00 | 19m 00s | Game Of City Life | It worked well, and played good. It looks a lot like SimCity though (but build in 48 hours, so impressive nonetheless). |
| Aug 29 12:00:00 | 11m 00s | Exvolvere | I was drawn by the bare-minimum screenshot, but there were a few of bugs (the programming kind). You were asked to select a cell type, but a non valid one would still be accepted? And a null pointer after selecting (probably because I had a non valid). Although I like a text based game this sort of game would benefit from a GUI and for a ludum dare it probably isn't that good of an idea to make it four player without AI. <br/>But would like to see what you can do, and for me there is nothing wrong with an text based game! |
| Aug 29 12:13:00 | 13m 00s | Rift of Time | It looked great, sound effects were funny! For me controlling two characters at the same time didn't work an it was buggy and could only be stopped from the taskmanager. |
| Aug 29 12:20:00 | 7m 00s | Sporee | particles, pixels good, Gameplay: don't get it |
| Aug 29 12:34:00 | 14m 00s | Rock-Parer-Scissors War | Looked good, played good (for me keyboard controlled output, like '1' for rock would be preferrable). There is a winning strategy I think, and that is watching what B puts out and looking out for enemies coming close and putting out an defender at the last moment. <br/>Nice. |
| Aug 29 12:40:00 | 6m 00s | spriters - evolution | Nice pixels, nice steering. I liked it. <br/>For me there was a bug as well, when trying to go to the main menu. But I liked it. I tried to completely cover myself in pixels .. . and then I got an eye an had to start all over again :) |
| Aug 29 12:52:00 | 12m 00s | Artificial Selection Racing Game | Loved it. Look good and funny. And the best take on evolution (for me) I have seen so far. |
| Aug 29 12:59:00 | 7m 00s | City of Stillness | I liked it. Yes your kittens looked great. Turn based I like as well, but it was so clear what had to happen and the influence of the changing stats. |
| Aug 29 13:47:00 | 48m 00s | ANT FIGHT CLUB | Loved it. Good for mobile. |
| Aug 29 14:12:00 | 25m 00s | Galapagos | good take on the theme, interesting gameplay. And I like games that look like this. |
| Aug 29 15:26:00 | 1h 14m | eukaryotic. | Great game. Addictive and the music doesn't get irritating until very late into the game. maybe some soundeffects would be nice. |
| Aug 29 15:30:00 | 4m 00s | Evolver.exe + Src! | maybe it only works on win64? on XP it said '. . .isnt a valid win32 application' |
| Aug 29 15:34:00 | 4m 00s | Glider Drop | Looks good. I wonder what you could have done with more time. For now it's just life I guess as we know it. |
| Aug 29 15:43:00 | 9m 00s | Barrel Roll | It looks good, but the music was getting on my nerves very quickly. Maybe if trade it with more neutral soundeffects? |
| Aug 31 15:24:00 | 47h 41m | Nom's Evolvathlon | Very good gameplay, the levels were good, which I find impressive. |
| Aug 31 16:36:00 | 1h 12m | Red Underpants : Minislip and the strange helicopter | It looks very slick and impressive for 48 hours! Too bad there is no audio.For me the controls could be better, but that is typical tweaking. |
| Aug 31 16:43:00 | 7m 00s | Evoes | The graphics look great. It gives a good idea of zooming into cells. Good browser integration. For me it was a bit annoying to see so little of the playing field and the gameplay not so clear. Good effort. |
| Aug 31 20:24:00 | 3h 41m | Spawning Creatures, Evolution of Creatures and Creatures Mayhem | I found the idea good. It was the game was a bit hard. It took some effort to get to the first evolution stage and I probably made the wrong choice and got butchered in the second round. Because it is hard you don't get to play with the evolution mechanism a lot, and that was a good mechanism. <br/>For me the graphics were OK, the music was very experimental, but at least you had music (I didn't)! <br/>I look forward to more stuff. |
| Aug 31 20:43:00 | 19m 00s | CritterLab | I like that you did a sandbox game. haven't seen much up until now. I do find it a bit hard to keep on caring about the creatures in the long run and an itch to nuke starts to creep in much to quickly. Maybe if you had more time they could have had more visual personalities. <br/>Oh by the way: I liked the music. It a bit of an X-COM 2 atmosphere. <br/>Great. |
| Aug 31 20:55:00 | 12m 00s | Assimilation | aha machinae supremacy in the timelapse video. thumbs up! <br/>Very good effort! It looks like you have a good base for the rest of the game. I do think it would be good if the scene transitions were faster. |
| Aug 31 21:06:00 | 11m 00s | Bear Selection(Web) | I like the messages. Gives a bit of a dwarf fortress feeling. It makes you care more for the creatures. Good take on evolution. There isn't much interaction and therefore my mind did wander quit quiickly. I DO like the way your tiles look! If the rest of the graphics were in the same style it would have been great. |
| Sep 1 13:26:00 | 16h 20m | Survival of the Leggiest | A good game, looked good , sound was OK and it was an evolution theme. I didn't feel like my actions were very influental, though. But that's probably what being a creator feels like. |
| Sep 1 16:19:00 | 2h 53m | Species Hunt | I like it a lot. Very original. I like that the birds have behaviors and different looks. |
| Sep 1 16:41:00 | 22m 00s | Evo... launch-ion? | haha, that was unexpected.I had fun playing this. Although I like the way it looks, less time on graphics and more on the game might have made it even moren enjoyable, with more varied gameplay. |
| Sep 1 18:44:00 | 2h 03m | Firefly | Very very good. Great design, sounds perfect. Maybe the best I've seen so far. I didn't look much at the weather though. it changed too fast so I didn't see a optimizing strategy. |
| Sep 1 19:07:00 | 23m 00s | Monkey Trial Turnaround | Nice. Original artwork. The game has definite style and mood to it, not like any other entry I've seen so far. Music is OK as well. The buttons and menu don't really go with the other art. Would be nice if you could change that. <br/>Nice. |
| Sep 1 19:26:00 | 19m 00s | Evolution is the Key | Very nice , like it a lot. Maybe the screenshots give too much of the surprise away, but it still was great seeing the game evolve! I would have liked a save function, though. After a few tries, it becomes frustrating. But maybe thats also because I try a lot of games and at this point dont try as hard as I could. |
| Sep 2 14:10:00 | 18h 44m | Watercolor Wheel Evolution | handrawn style is nice and in the menus as well. Music fits the style. Smooth gameplay made me play longer. |
| Sep 2 14:20:00 | 10m 00s | Infection | Original take on the theme. I liked that my 'children' had a life of their own. the game was pretty easy. It has potential I think. |
| Sep 2 14:29:00 | 9m 00s | Revolution | 3 specialist I can tell. The music is good (nice retro sound), the graphics excellent and the game works very well. Excellent job. If you want to go further with this game, maybe some more difference in gameplay would be good. |
| Sep 2 16:21:00 | 1h 52m | Flrrr | I liked it. Nice colorswirls. Like the procedural music, although it gets less melodic when evolving. |
| Sep 2 16:30:00 | 9m 00s | Slowly | Very nice for a first try. Interesting. It kept me going for a while, but when I saw I needed 125 for the next stge it was too daunting. maybe add something that can damage your trees for more variety? I'm alos not sure if the collision detection is accurate. |
| Sep 2 16:45:00 | 15m 00s | 42 Stories | Wow, this looks amazing! Like it's ready to be published. Music is also very cool. The gameplay is simple but not bad. I can see there is some need for tweaking the balance; in the beginning the computer shot always everything away, but when I destroyed his military story, he never recovered and I went unimpeded to the end. <br/>Incredible. |
| Sep 2 16:55:00 | 10m 00s | Apoptosis | It's a good start. It does need some winning and losing, but you were working on that? Maybe some more sound and effects when you collect a bonus? |
| Sep 2 17:00:00 | 5m 00s | Help! My Game's Mutating! | A good game I think. Interesting and nice execution, because there really are all kinds of mutations. It needs some tweaking. |
| Sep 2 18:57:00 | 1h 57m | EVOLON | First game? Very good! It played good, but without restart frustrating. Some sound would also make it a lot more playable. |
| Sep 2 19:12:00 | 15m 00s | Adventures of Hermanni | This is good. If I didn't have a load of other games to try, I would try to get even further. I like the music, how did you make it with a script, is it by algorhytm? Good puzzles too. Some more work on the controls (responsiveness) might help. And it wasn't always obvious at what height the platforms were. |
| Sep 2 19:22:00 | 10m 00s | E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N | that was an original game mechanic. Graohics I liked as well. I didn't make it to the end, it became to hard for me. It might be good if the ape achieved different things on each level. |
| Sep 2 19:33:00 | 11m 00s | Sweepers! | Ooh I like those graphics and the variety you get with such a simple concept. Mutating isn't always a good thing. |
| Sep 2 19:53:00 | 20m 00s | EvoWord | I'n not really a fan of these kind of games, but this looks very professionally done. Impressive! <br/> <br/>TIP: After unzipping the folder 'gamedata' was recognized as an synchronized folder by Tortoise SVN. You may want to change that, otherwise other people could change your resources (it looked like I could if I wanted to). |
| Sep 2 20:23:00 | 30m 00s | EvolBots (not EvilBots) | Original game! Some points I found: getting the last bots to the finish can be a drag when you have a lot all over the place. Maybe if can end an level by keystroke (leave some behind)? And when zoomed out, things were not very clear. |
| Sep 3 19:09:00 | 22h 46m | Dig, Jesus! Dig! | This was really funny and a great idea (I wish I would have thought of this). |
| Sep 3 19:20:00 | 11m 00s | How evolution really works? | Funny and very well done. The graphics look simple, but they are more than simple squares. Gameplay was good and the levels original. Only downside I could find: If you get stuck at the same point the music gets a bit annoying makes the pause until you can try again, too long. |
| Sep 3 19:25:00 | 5m 00s | Peanuts! | Too bad it isn't really finished. The screenshots look very good. |
| Sep 3 19:39:00 | 14m 00s | Colorlies | This I could score on mood. It was certainly submittable. Best soundtrack I have heard by far! Graphics were good and simple. Just needed a bit more gameplay (but you got more than my game anyway :)) |
| Sep 3 19:52:00 | 13m 00s | Infected Cell | oops don't have java 7 yet. |
| Sep 3 20:00:00 | 8m 00s | Evolution game | haha, it was too difficult for me (maybe it ran too fast?). Your first LD? Well done. Maybe to get more out of the 48 hours you could try to use a platform/framework that does a lot of basic stuff for you (like gamemaker), so you can work more on gameplay/graphicss/sound. |
| Sep 5 15:56:00 | 43h 56m | Soul Jar | Wow! Really feels you have a companion. Looks amazing, atmosphere is the best I have seen yet. I didn't really know what to do, I walked for a very log distance with the robot, but after half an hour ended the game, it seemed endless. Now I read that going right was the thing to do. Will try again, but already very enthiousiastic. No wonder you were mentioned on IndieGames. |
| Sep 5 17:01:00 | 1h 05m | darwin_award | Ha, I like that you have to do research for a game. I liked the graphics (if I looked beyond the graphical corruption, java and compatibility). It wasn't really clear for me what my influence on the others were and how the protesters were dangerous, but maybe I'm one of Award winners ;) |
| Sep 5 17:33:00 | 32m 00s | UN-Natural Selection | Looks great. Sounds and plays a bit like a level of Spore. Very professionally done. Once I choose wrong and after an event I was left with the same kind of monsters. Unfortunately with this game mechanic it can never change. Maybe a little randomness? <br/>Bu a very good game for this theme! |
| Sep 5 18:49:00 | 1h 16m | Emergent Dungeon | It is a good idea. Too bad you didn't have enough time to expand on it. |
| Sep 5 19:20:00 | 31m 00s | Darwin's Apple | Good idea. A lot done for 9 hours! The graphics alone is a lot of work. The mechanics work good, it is quite easy. It does need some tweaking and for me the sound got annoying pretty fast, so maybe a feature to turn sound of might be good. <br/>By the way: I use windows and most Java Applets on my Chrome browser have the flicker as well. But with your game it ended when the game started. |
| Sep 5 19:27:00 | 7m 00s | Primordial Guard | It is an interesting idea. You eradicate the ones that don't have the traits you want. Maybe you can expand on it and have more variety in behavior, maybe going round corners, being able to defend or attack. But then you need a more sofisticated way to kill them. The spray gun you now have is not focused enough. And like other people said: it is quite easy. |
| Sep 5 19:38:00 | 11m 00s | Robot, paper, scissors: Evolution | NIce, but indeed a bit easy. If the levels changed you might get more variation. |
| Sep 5 20:04:00 | 26m 00s | DIGIEVO | I like it! <br/>No other game in this LD looks anything like this. Thankfully other players offered their code (mine is NORMAL CYHER LIGHT INIT). The graphics in like as well. Just the highlighting of the selected menu item is not very clear. |
| Sep 5 20:15:00 | 11m 00s | 8-Bit Big Bang (that was the origonal name, I never changed it, it was 8-bit) | There's quite a lot going on. It is not always obvious, but that isn't a big problem. Maybe an ingame menu with your explanation above with examples of teh objects? All in all I find it impressive for 48 hours. The minimal music fits the game very well. I did notice the game did something with my screen. My whole screen dimmed (got a bit darker) and it took about a second to revert to normal after I exited the game. |
| Sep 5 20:21:00 | 6m 00s | Cellular Division 101 | Ah, like other people wrote: too bad you didn't take longer to finish your game. I always like creatures that behave like they have a mind of their own. <br/>For me the circular view doesn't work. It fits the them very well, but I do feel my field of view is too narrow. <br/>Next time do more, its promising. |
| Sep 6 20:41:00 | 24h 20m | We Just Got Serious | ah, great opening picture. When playing I was surprised when I suddenly noticed I got smaller when moving. Made it a bit hard to evolve. Good effort though |
| Sep 6 20:53:00 | 12m 00s | Super Darwin | A lot to like here. <br/>Darwin looks great. Nice touches in the border and a retro Arcade feel (including old fashioned no-save tough gameplay). I like the idea of Darwin as an posh superhero. Maybe could use some more tweaking in movement. |
| Sep 6 21:02:00 | 9m 00s | the Evolution from zx81 | if it wasn't ludum dare I would have been put off by the spammy download page. Maybe you could use Dropbox next time? Its free. <br/>I was pleasantly surprised when moving up. Its an original take on evolution. Liked the graphics. <br/>For me it could be more obvious when/how you lose your life. I found it hard as well, but thats not a bad thing. |
| Sep 6 21:12:00 | 10m 00s | Zombie Scientists Had Too Much Kitten | Haha, short but maybe the funniest game I have played yet. The story with all the popular buzzwords combined, and 'of course you're naked' was terrific! Absurd!. Applause! Cheer! Next time make it longer! <br/>Did you really make this with unity? |
| Sep 10 18:56:00 | 93h 44m | Cuboid Sandbox | the posts that are advertising your game probably made your server melt. It must be really good then. I'll try again later. |
| Sep 10 19:04:00 | 8m 00s | Death Death Evolution | Very good looking game. The fox is cute. The music is also good. The abilities you get are surprising as well. I'm in awe. |
| Sep 10 19:21:00 | 17m 00s | Garbage Man: Return to Earth [HD] | Oooh, I like this! Very original style and a gameplay I didn't expect. Nice physics. Not easy for me because I allways end up with a part on the 'front' that bounces the other parts away. Could be enhanced I think, to prolong gameplay. Very promising. |
| Sep 10 19:30:00 | 9m 00s | Pimp my Rat ! | Good use on the theme I think and I love the mouse and the plot-pictures. Music is good as well. I did find the controls a bit hard and I must agree with the 'blind jumps'. You have to guess what to do. |
| Sep 10 19:44:00 | 14m 00s | Mech attack | I'm glad I tried a little harder, because it was more interesting than I first thought. It could use some more explaining. But that also made it more surprising. The music got a bit repetitive (all the more because I took so long to collect 5 diamonds), but sounded original with real instruments. There are some good ideas so curious what you will do another LD. |
| Sep 10 19:56:00 | 12m 00s | A scientific experiment | Boy, those are cute graphics! Like like like it! The evolution part looked very interesting, but the game was much too hard for me, to really see it in action. Overall I liked it. The windows link didn't work (maybe only 64 bits?) After seeing the youtube video I downloaded LOVE. Without the video I wouldn't have bothered. |
| Sep 10 20:00:00 | 4m 00s | Super Devolution Man | I wish the music would be longer, it had a VERY catchy beginning. I couldn't get past the big cluster of enemies! |
| Sep 10 20:06:00 | 6m 00s | Besugo | It had a very good and consistent retro feel: the graphics, the music, the gameplay. I also didn't realise immediately how to kill other fish. |
| Sep 11 17:19:00 | 21h 13m | Complexitivity | Woo, that was some heavy bass drum in my headphones! certainly fits the pace of the game. Looks sleek too. |
| Sep 11 18:36:00 | 1h 17m | Amazing Neko Neko Shop | Ha, this a fun one. This must be Japanese, is it not? It's different, it's definitely evolution, looks funny and good, and before you know it, vou've been playing for a half an hour. So, the gameplay is good as well, easy to understand, you can see what happens. Product X is a bit addictive to use. Luckily I do have sound. |
| Sep 11 18:39:00 | 3m 00s | E.V.o | oh, only Linux. I dont have an emulator for that and I think my XO laptop won't run this. Maybe after your bachelor we can see a platform independent perhaps LD25? |
| Sep 11 18:48:00 | 9m 00s | 133 | I like that you made procedural levels. The music is fitting because it is also procedural. it took me a try before i found out what was a good way to play this. The way the game started looked nice, maybe you could do more effects.? |
| Sep 11 18:53:00 | 5m 00s | Sam Onion: The Case of the Mutese Falcon | This certainly had style. I didn't expect it, but it was good. Just much too much too short. Maybe with more practice a finished tale in the next LD? |
| Sep 11 19:04:00 | 11m 00s | Age runners | I'm glad I tried this later on. Now I can try it. Works well. Weird idea to have two sort of identical parallel games with one control. Graphics are nice. Did you play the piano yourself? Funny, it's still running while I'm typing this and still responding every time I press space. Bit hard for me but otherwise impressive for 48 hours! |
| Sep 11 19:10:00 | 6m 00s | Tonality | Original take on the theme. I would have liked to hear a sound when I destroyed a bacterium. And it is a bit hard for me, but if balance is all you have to fix . . |
| Sep 11 19:25:00 | 15m 00s | Unstable Planet | Evolving levels. I haven't seen those yet. Very clever. And procedural levels that still can be completed, I'm impressed. The way you character moved was a bit weird but worked. Graphically it look finished. Very good. After about 10 levels, you sometimes feel the levels look too much the same, but also sometimes there is a surprise when a familiar corner has disappeared. The music was OK, but unlucky for you, I've played quite a few games by now and these procedural Python musics start to sound the same. |
| Sep 11 19:42:00 | 17m 00s | Cannibal Slugmage of Eden | I like minimalistic games (dwarf fortress!) and from what I read there is al lot of depth> I was too tired from all the other entries to really try it so I wont rate it. Maybe later. |
| Sep 11 19:51:00 | 9m 00s | Meow for MUTATION! | haha it almost seems, like cats are the theme of this Ludum Dare. A LOT of different mutations! Must be a lot of work. I liked how the cats looked. Found it a bit hard to do useful breeding; a lot of cats who don't deserve to die, but don't have any of the wanted characteristics. <br/>That I don't want the cats to die shows that they are well made. |
| Sep 11 20:22:00 | 31m 00s | HumanTECH | YEAH! Music like the old X-COM Terror from the deep. It fits the game and it doesn't get annoying after playing for an hour (the longest I have played an LD game so far). Old school graphics. <br/>It feels very like a finished product (except maybe from the enemies getting stuck). For some maybe too easy, but for me just right. Dieing isn't punished too hard so you are still feeling you can progress. Evolution not just a story, but also part of the gameplay. Good gameplay, good level design. One of the winners for me. <br/>I just have one wish: to actually see the people I have freed, and maybe more of an ending. |
| Sep 11 20:27:00 | 5m 00s | Swarm | sorry none of them worked. Maybe I'll download gamemaker and try with the source |
| Sep 11 20:34:00 | 7m 00s | The Origin | I feel you wanted to do a lot more. The diary is a good idea and suggested more interesting animals. <br/>I felt the physics were OK. Darwin discovering species was a good idea. Some moveable enemies and some more challenging levels might be good? |
| Sep 11 20:50:00 | 16m 00s | Lost Soul | What what? Gamemovement: just LMB? Ah and mouse. I was curious how it would work out. It makes the game controls very intuitive, but also very hard. <br/>Bu I don't want to dwell on the negative because the game has a great mood, the text, the graphics, the sound and the music all work together to create a great mood. Even the game itself, where you have to work you way up out of the darkness. The darkness makes it a bit harder because you cant see how fast you move or your prey, so maybe a little bit of contrast would have helped (or maybe ruined the mood). You don't have much of a profile. Don't you make more games. judging from what you did here, you should (maybe get someone to check your English). <br/>I don't get why there are so few comments. |
| Sep 11 20:58:00 | 8m 00s | The evolution of the little purple alien | LOL. I like minimal animation and I dont mind little gameplay (just like my game :). <br/>I also like that you enemy is partying with you in the end. <br/>The size of the game (tiny on my large monitor) was also fitting to the game. |
| Sep 11 21:17:00 | 19m 00s | Entourage | Nothing to add, I guess. It's all been said. <br/>But I like to say that I like the direction you were taking. Just needed some more variety (maybe some random evolution). |
| Sep 12 11:12:00 | 13h 55m | Young Earth Road Trip | Ha, this is definitely a new take on the theme. Funny endings as well. The drawings look really good. |
| Sep 12 11:18:00 | 6m 00s | Cellvolution | Good start I think for a first game. You can certainly expand on this. See you on the next LD. |
| Sep 12 14:39:00 | 3h 21m | Mighty-chondria | Wow that looks amazing. You guys really know how to make it look like the real thing. Good sound and music. The game is tight as well. Good menus, intuitive controls and steering. Except the dragging of DNA, that took me a moment to figure out. |
| Sep 12 14:51:00 | 12m 00s | The Darwinci Code - Adaption FTW! | played smooth, haven't seen a puzzle game yet in this competition and the idea of a survival of the fittest is clever. Sound and graphics excellent. The indicators on the side are very informative (in fact you canalmost play it without looking at the playing field), but I didn't notice them at first. I didn't find the collecting of items very useful, but thats just me. Very good game. |
| Sep 12 16:07:00 | 1h 16m | Clever Blocks | Nice idea of the different strengths that can be combined. Could use some tweaking, but for 24 hours that is still impressive! I'm looking forward to future releases |
| Sep 12 18:29:00 | 2h 22m | Where am I? | This one certainly rates on mood! It's certainly worth at least one play. <br/>Plays like you're in a movie. Not knowing what will happen is a good thing here. |
| Sep 12 18:38:00 | 9m 00s | Outside of the Test Tube | Looks good and you made me look at Blender again ('you can do THIS with blender?'). <br/>Could you make it faster though? |
| Sep 12 19:16:00 | 38m 00s | Omega Architecture | Wow wow wow. It's got a good story, well introduced, good voice acting. Funny sounds from all the factories and robots and the best music I've heard so far. Its got so much. <br/>The only thing that might be better, is that it's not very clear what to do and what the consequences are. for instance :it wasn't always clear that the option you chose (like building a certain kind of building). And for a game that takes this long a save option might be welcome too (I clicked the x by accident, which was end of game). Something for a future release? |
| Sep 12 19:32:00 | 16m 00s | FOR THE darWIN | It all fits, sounds and graphics style and theme. It looks funny and it IS funny. <br/>There's just one thing: on my browser (Chrome on XP), not everything was visible. Only after seeing the screenshots I saw that there were THREE sequence positions. Maybe some autoscaling is possible or a notice telling people that its widescreen? |
| Sep 12 19:41:00 | 9m 00s | Species | Ha, this game me a fright! On a platformer! There are some great mechanics here. The flashlight is interesting although I found it very frustrating when trying to jump on small platforms. The stairs might need some tweaking too. Otherwise: very good! |
| Sep 12 19:49:00 | 8m 00s | Happy Vegan Birthday | Like everyone else I loved the graphics. The story was unexpected in a very good way. Now I'm curious how it will continu, I want to see more. |
| Sep 12 19:54:00 | 5m 00s | One Day To Breed | haha it sounds like the bass-voice of the music is saying meow meow. Cute and definitely evolution. Good one. |
| Sep 12 20:02:00 | 8m 00s | Manual Selection | after playing this game I wanted to dust of my old ant project and try to make something goodlooking like this. Inspirational. I did have I feeling for what the consequences of my actions were, but some more feedback would be nice. Stats or something of individual ants? |
| Sep 12 20:05:00 | 3m 00s | Robo[R]Evolution | haha, the link above makes it look like the game is meant for windows 1.0 I'll give it a try anyway ;) |
| Sep 13 19:02:00 | 22h 57m | The Room | Ha, another game with a Zaragoza Christ. Shame I can't play it |
| Sep 13 19:55:00 | 53m 00s | Trinity Labs | Man, this game is messy! Its even worse than my desk! Sometimes the rules were not so clear. Some combinations I didn't expect. A lot of things were frustrating (your first spotted human bouncing out of reach, the music after 10 minutes) but you do keep on playing. Well I think I reached the end (it didn't fit so I dont know if anything else would come). Very original! |
| Sep 13 20:02:00 | 7m 00s | GeomeTree | In the beginning I was only focussing on the numbers, but it looks like you can select for shape as well. <br/>I like how it looks and sounds. Mayeb add some more variables later? |
| Sep 13 20:05:00 | 3m 00s | The Amazing Adventure of Magenta-Man | can't run it on WinXP |
| Sep 13 20:09:00 | 4m 00s | Tiktaalik's Tale | I like that you used Tiktaalik and I like your rocks. Well, more game the next LD, right? |
| Sep 13 20:22:00 | 13m 00s | Dudes in Forest | Ha, the description must be a nightmare for homophobic people. I couldn't figure out what to do, so everybody was making love but me. The graphics were Ok. <br/>But don't be sorry, try again. <br/>And try some more games from others, so you can also learn from them. |
| Sep 13 20:32:00 | 10m 00s | Stop Evolution Tower Defense | I thought for a minute you had the same idea as I had. There was quite more to it than I first thought. <br/>I started the jam in Flash Cs4 as well, but coding is a nightmare. I would suggest using FlashDevelop, maybe with exported swc's. Nice use of the theme. <br/>The game didn't look very good, but I think that if you make all the graphics in the same style it would already be a lot better. And you could expand on enemies, troops etc. Good for a first try I think. |
| Sep 13 20:41:00 | 9m 00s | Hungry Blubb | There was audio, good graphics and a complete game including ending. I don't know why this has just one comment. <br/>It could use something like damage and some things could be better like the jumping, but good start, just keep on making more games. |
| Sep 15 09:10:00 | 36h 29m | Morph, Virus, Morph! | It looked good and I loved the music. I didn't have troubles with the game being sluggish. It performed well even on my laptop. Maybe for the next time a bit longer? I finished the game very quickly. |
| Sep 15 10:32:00 | 1h 22m | Moche | What what what? This was weird! And great! Not always imediately obvious, but fun nonetheless. So very original. Will check out the post compo version, after the compo. |
| Sep 15 10:42:00 | 10m 00s | Dr. Ken and Dr. Ken | I really liked the look of it. The story is a bit like my game, but your way of telling it is so much better! The game mechanic is also comparabble but also better. <br/>Unfortunately I was too bad at the game to get very far. |
| Sep 15 10:56:00 | 14m 00s | Monkeyectomy | Inspirational that you managed to do this in so little time. The small graphics were very nice, the monkeymusic was appropriate and gameplay kept me playing longer than I expected. Very good. |
| Sep 15 11:01:00 | 5m 00s | Monopoly, no not that Monopoly | I hope you will do an update, because it didn't work on my machine. |
| Sep 15 11:22:00 | 21m 00s | The Kittelutioning | One of the winners for me, because it used the them so well. It took some time to figure out how to change the genes and I don't know yet what every gene does, but it was fun to watch and once I got it, I could make some useful mutations. The soundeffects were funny. This game I will look at the source, because I'm interested in using an physics engine with Flash as well (I think your using a physic engine). |
| Sep 15 11:31:00 | 9m 00s | Singularity | Looking at the screenshots, I have missed a lot by not being good enough. it looks very good. I also like that you made procedural levels, but some iterations were impossible for me. |
| Sep 15 11:42:00 | 11m 00s | cuboidAI | Hey, a save and load option. Thats cool. Not many games in the competition have that. Its soothing to look at and fitting music. Clean and intuitive UI. Most of my blocks just kept going forward, I didn't see much useful mutations. |
| Sep 15 11:51:00 | 9m 00s | Unnatural Selection | That's an original take on the theme I haven't seen yet. Throwing the meteors was fun and looked very good, so I'm not missing a cool menu or awesome graphics. For me you can add some more gameplay, that you had to aim for something more than a highscore, but for 5 hours impressive. |
| Sep 15 15:32:00 | 3h 41m | Dissolution | A good start, but the compo version was indeed a bit short. <br/>At the jame version I found out what the evolution bit was. |
| Sep 15 15:44:00 | 12m 00s | Space Sheep: Cyber-Genetic Wariors | A good shooter. I like the idea of the black sheep against the white sheep. Nice variation in weapons. <br/>I found it very clever that you are yourself the cause of better enemies by erradicating the weaker. Though in the game this wasn't very obvious. |
| Sep 15 16:04:00 | 20m 00s | Plinko Breeder | Just played the compo version and understand what you mean. Well, trying the improved version is for after the voting :) |
| Sep 15 16:10:00 | 6m 00s | Human 2.0 | I can imagine that it took you a lot of time. Lovely graphics and the sound makes for a great mood. It could be more interactive, but still nice. |
| Sep 15 16:20:00 | 10m 00s | Universe Exploder | agree with wlad. Your game could use more attention, because I think its different. If you rate more, you get more ratings (or so I hope). The graphics were great, but some of the menus were flickering between two places. The music was very fitting and that the mouse pointer left a trail of things was a nice touch. A good way to make a weird point and click game more interesting. |
| Sep 15 16:27:00 | 7m 00s | SUPER Levolution | grr all those enthiousiastic people and I cant play because the server doesnt work |
| Sep 15 16:40:00 | 13m 00s | The Unbeatable Blob | A good idea to do procedural graphics. And when not glitching it looks kind of cool. When you let it run it does get pretty big by itself and should come with an epileptic seizure warning ;) Not a bad idea, but it does need hazards first. |
| Sep 15 17:13:00 | 33m 00s | Haunted | What bad luck. <br/>You think you made the first horror 2D platformer, but I just played another LD game which was also a horror 2D. Nice moody look and good sounds (nice use of stereo!). |
| Sep 16 12:08:00 | 18h 55m | Dawn | Lovely graphics (the character looks like a character out of the Tick comics). Good puzzles, sounds were good. The thinking was an interesting new game mechanic and was well thought of (thinking takes time), but was not really intuitive for me (wating for so long). Cool ending . <br/>This one has it all. <br/>Really good, I'm curious what you will do next. |
| Sep 16 12:23:00 | 15m 00s | Caveman Speak | Haha, very funny and very original as well. Sounds were perfect. Sometimes it was like herding cats. <br/>It was a bit short. For me you could expand this. |
| Sep 16 19:27:00 | 7h 04m | Ninjural Selection | A great idea and the excecution makes it fun to play even without a goal. Are those aliens randomly generated? They look nice even when small. The only-a-few-pixels-small hero was great. But the real winner for me was the music. <br/>I think the music with the looks and gameplay work great. It just needs some danger and score. <br/>I'll play the updated version after the compo (so many to play). |
| Sep 16 19:40:00 | 13m 00s | Awareness | Very interesting. I gathered som info from the comments. I don't know if I would have got it without those. <br/>Original, but I don't see a winning or scoring condition, just an avoiding death condition. Give the game a goal and I think it will become much more fun. But a solid 5 starts for innovation. |
| Sep 16 19:44:00 | 4m 00s | Acts of August: Introspective | I think I'll have to come back to this, when I have more time. It looks very interesting |
| Sep 16 19:56:00 | 12m 00s | Space Worm | This was a very solid game. Easy to understand, built on a classic game but with a twist. And it was also good that the game got more challenging with other enemies when growing. <br/>The graphics were also good. Just add a catchy soundtrack and you can put it online or as an app. people will play this. <br/>Ha, but one thing: the Exit button in the Evolve menu. I pressed it because I thought I would exit the menu. |
| Sep 16 20:07:00 | 11m 00s | Super Evolver Boy: Turbo SD | Ooh this is one I REALLY want to see a follow up to. It has the potentional to be the next VVVVV. Good and original puzzles. The devolve is also clever. The different characters are nice. But the gameplay is a the moment somewhat stiff and clumsey (well, you only had 48 hours). Fx that, add some music and you'll be in IndieGamer in no time (maybe change the title). |
| Sep 16 20:11:00 | 4m 00s | Oneway | it took some time to understand the logic, but then I understood. . . and realised I'm really no good a quick action games. <br/>But it looks good and is original (although I don't see the theme in it). |
| Sep 16 20:14:00 | 3m 00s | Psychiatric Evaluation | DOH! It looks so interesting, but I don't have the time to really get into it. I'll come back to it. |
| Sep 17 18:06:00 | 21h 52m | Eat, Spawn, and Die - Organism Generator | I'm sorry. Just installed Python, think I installed pygame corectly, but the games's not running. Maybe I'll try again after the compo, but with just a few hours 'till the deadline, I'll pass. |
| Sep 17 18:17:00 | 11m 00s | The Origin of Valmalvax | Hey this is nice. Graphics I like (waves), I like all the different kinds of enemies. The evolving idea is clever. It could use some more explanation, but that's with a lot of games (like mine ;) |
| Sep 17 18:31:00 | 14m 00s | Survival of the Thingies | You know how to make cute and clear characters.The game could use more types to evolve in. <br/>And maybe increase the speed a bit but decrease the number of males, so levels are quicker but are harder. Now sometimes for me the challenge was not to lose my patience :) |
| Sep 17 18:55:00 | 24m 00s | Total argument | I thought this was unplayable until I realised you could click your building. This has got a lot! You got me rooting for the creationists. Funny sound effects. Very nice. <br/>The graphics could be better. <br/>Unfortunately I never got improved buildings because I won before I needed them. Good game! |
| Sep 17 19:16:00 | 21m 00s | DGP: Space Lion | 5 star humor, 5 star music! What a great character and what great music. I may even be tempted to buy the soundtrack, but leave some DGP Space Lion quotes in there. <br/>The game is glitchy and pretty unforgiving (died at the end of an level that took me a few minutes and I'm back where I started again) but what a game. |
| Sep 17 19:25:00 | 9m 00s | a day to remember | Good that you didn't give too much away in the instructions. This looked nice and was also an original idea. <br/>Like others said: sound would have been nice to create an atmosphere. <br/>The size of the screen and lettering were a good choice as well. Gave it a bit of character. <br/>With some smoother gameplay, soundeffect and it could be a good puzzle game. You dont need enemies, because your playing against the clock. <br/>I would love to see a finished game and try to save the dinosaurs (that must mean I have to score on mood, then). |
| Sep 17 19:33:00 | 8m 00s | evoCubes | aah abstract cubes, abstract music, moody lighting. A lot of atmosphere. Nice. Could use more votes. |
| Sep 17 19:36:00 | 3m 00s | Bit by Bit | I liked the music. The game was really short. |
| Sep 17 19:43:00 | 7m 00s | The evolution related game of death! | I think I don't understand everything. What can you do? Only buy upgrades and decide to speed up? I did like the look of it. |
| Sep 17 19:51:00 | 8m 00s | Evolve Larry | The character looks great. You want him to evolve. The music is good and the rest of the game is also good looking. Playing the game was hard, the controls were not responding very well. Does it work better on a mobile device? It looks like a game you control by shaking your mobile. |
| Sep 17 20:01:00 | 10m 00s | The Highbred Pixel | The graphics are so good looking and moody, I love them. The water drops are musical. Some good puzzles there as well. The controls were not so good, so after a while it got frustrating. But getting everything right in 48 hours is almost impossible (for me 72 hours was waaaay to short). |
| Sep 17 20:14:00 | 13m 00s | Deal with It | This surely was tough! And all the old attempts keep on reminding you of your failure by constantly spewing blood. <br/>The beginning of the game is the funniest I have seen. <br/>Good game. |
