|---|---|---|---|
| Apr 29 02:50:00 | The Only String | Greate, had a blast playing it :). | |
| Apr 29 03:40:00 | 50m 00s | Katana Senpou | Polished and nicely done. Had a good laugh with the voice over job :). |
| Apr 29 03:47:00 | 7m 00s | PNG | Brosers on OSs other than Windows usually won't open bare bones a SWF file. If you have it online, try to embed it into an HTML file to make sure everyone will open it ;). |
| Apr 29 03:50:00 | 3m 00s | Budget Squad | Seriously, I can't wait to pĺay a game that you fully complete and is 100% satisfied. This is awesome! |
| Apr 29 04:17:00 | 27m 00s | minimalism | Nice idea that could be developed a bit more to include more shapes and figures. Nice for a mobile game. |
| Apr 29 04:33:00 | 16m 00s | Undercolor Agents | won't work on Ubuntu under Wine. Complains about missing APF.mfx. |
| Apr 29 04:36:00 | 3m 00s | Co-op | Won't work under Wine :(. |
| Apr 29 04:39:00 | 3m 00s | Potatoroids | Funniest game I played so far, congrats! |
| Apr 29 05:37:00 | 58m 00s | Super Minimalistic | Liked it a lot, played the game before reading the notes and, guess what? It makes more sense having to find out what the game is all about rather than being told about it. My only note is that there's no goal in the end, you traverse the entire store and then you're left wondering if I missed something besides the pile of stuff. But I guess that this was left out for time constraints, so it's OK :). |
| Apr 29 05:53:00 | 16m 00s | Running With Swords | Weirdest thing is that I couldn't get the Linux binary to work correctly. It used a window that was about twice my desktop (FullHD) and I couldn't see the game. However, the Windows version worked just fine under Wine. |
| Apr 29 06:02:00 | 9m 00s | Where is Pixel | Running the game is a bit difficult, providing some instructions about downloading the Love2D binaries is a must. Packaging the game with the libraries for Windows shouldn't be a problem, please add that so more people can play your game without problems. Other than that, I find the 2nd stage too easy to complete, the pixel stands out no matter where it is. |
| Apr 29 06:53:00 | 51m 00s | Framework | Cool, I like the idea to customize the ship for the gameplay. The way you did it was very simple and effective. I wish just a full screen mode. Several times I missed because I clicked outside the game area. Other than that, cool game :). |
| Apr 29 06:59:00 | 6m 00s | Seed | Very cool, took me a while to figure out the goals, but after that I had a good time playing it. Also, I liked the visual style. |
| Apr 29 07:30:00 | 31m 00s | My Mini Castle | Man, where do I start? The game is cute looking, plays great and is easy to pick up. A bit more balancing for picking up potatoes, but other than that, a very enjoyable experience! |
| Apr 29 07:34:00 | 4m 00s | Super 1-Bit Space Arena | Great, how more minimalist you can go other than a black & white game? The audio and graphics are right on mark. No to mention that the action is frantic and well balanced. However, I wish we could also control the game with the cursor keys. This is a major hurdle for people whi use the mouse with the left hand. |
| Apr 29 07:39:00 | 5m 00s | Mini(malistic) Tank Battles | I liked the idea for the grayscale graphics. However, I would love to be able to also use the cursor keys to move the tank around (I use the mouse with my left hand). i don't know why, but the rockets didn't make the tank fly, but I could jump alright. |
| Apr 30 01:58:00 | 18h 19m | Poke | This is twisted, but yet so fun :). Hard part was to get it working, but other that that, everything went smoothly. |
| Apr 30 02:03:00 | 5m 00s | Block Breaker | Cool, you can never go wrong with explosives :). I had some issues with the controls, is it normal that you need to press the key several times to keep the character moving? |
| Apr 30 02:09:00 | 6m 00s | Minimalist Dungeon | This is awesome. It has been a long time since I have played a top view 2D puzzle/action game. Loved the way to defeat enemies. |
| Apr 30 02:39:00 | 30m 00s | The Silent | Loved the atmosphere, though I thought that I'd run into Slenderman sometimes :). My first run gave me two rooms to play, and I as like "what the heck"? :) |
| Apr 30 02:43:00 | 4m 00s | One fine morning our machines are gonna cut us down | Man, this is so hard :(. Have to keep practicing. |
| Apr 30 02:47:00 | 4m 00s | Minimun Life | I feel depressed after playing this, but I think that was the whole idea to begin with ;). |
| Apr 30 02:53:00 | 6m 00s | Minigames Octacade | Wow, *EIGHT* games in one? How did you manage that? I enjoyed the Manic Miner Clone. But you nailed Axis Invaders, this one is great. I had a good time playing it :). |
| Apr 30 02:57:00 | 4m 00s | LOWBAT | Nice Tácio! Very well done, with good graphics and interesting game play mechanics. I still have some issues with jumping, but overal I like this game. Keep the good work! |
| Apr 30 03:19:00 | 22m 00s | Minimalize | What can I say, this is the best game I've played so far. I wouldn't be surprised to find this game as one of the (if not THE) top rated games of #LD48. The minimalization effect is so cool, yet so simple. That's what makes this game so great. Congratulations, you nailed it! |
| Apr 30 03:50:00 | 31m 00s | Boxy | I was like "holy potatoes, they're chasing me!". I had a laugh with this game. Main issue is that it's too hard to keep it for 30 seconds, the player increases speed too fast. However, it's not everyday you get chased by potatoes :). |
| Apr 30 04:13:00 | 23m 00s | Space, Space, Space! | I'm still trying to run the game, it keeps asking me to press space :D. |
| Apr 30 04:46:00 | 33m 00s | Geometry Wars (Multiplayer RTS) | I second the opinion above, wish there was a bot to play against. I couldn't find someone to play against, but had some time consuming geometrical resources :). |
| Apr 30 04:56:00 | 10m 00s | Somniphobia | Loved the art style, I had to play it since I saw you main screen shoot. The game combat is very simple, maybe adding some more interactive sequences to that part would make it more interesting overall. The premise is good, but some more time may make the execution part better. |
| May 1 00:44:00 | 19h 48m | Church of Minimalism | Same error as with stqn, doesn't work on Linux :(. |
| May 1 00:55:00 | 11m 00s | One Crate Sokoban In The Dark | Nice twist on a classic game. For random generated levels, they are pretty much playable. Sometimes they are very easy, but nice job on providing a level generator that generate valid entries. The only quick suggestion I'd make is to add a check to see if the orange square is over the green one to advance levels automatically. Other than that, a nice entry. |
| May 1 01:07:00 | 12m 00s | Meat Meets Potatoes | LOL, the orange square becomes potatoes after a while :). Loved throwing forks on them :D. |
| May 1 01:17:00 | 10m 00s | I DIED. | Hey, that's a cool game. Great idea about using speed to defeat enemies (and reduce control input). Also, the B&W art remembers me the old days of the Speccy. Had a blast when I picked up the pepper. |
| May 1 01:19:00 | 2m 00s | Project Status: Abandoned | Couldn't get it to run on Linux. Got a black screen. Maybe the code can't find the resources? |
| May 1 01:38:00 | 19m 00s | Persist | Very nice, can't believe you did that in just 48 hours. Loved the graphics style, which remids me a lot the games I used to play on the MSX and ZX Spectrum. Character animation is also very well done, and also the music. Great work! |
| May 1 01:45:00 | 7m 00s | Pale Brown Dot | Too bad, I wanted to absorb a rabbit :). |
| May 1 01:48:00 | 3m 00s | Minimalist Moe | No audio :(. Would have loved to just keep the mouse button pressed to keep shooting ;). |
| May 1 01:51:00 | 3m 00s | Bezier Challenge | Man, this is so cool. So simple, but yet so addictive. Great work! |
| May 1 01:55:00 | 4m 00s | Squeezed Out | Nice little game! One suggestion, instead of making the bars going lower when the games gets faster, keep them up. It´s actually very easy to find a spot to stay when the bar are o close to the player |
| May 1 02:01:00 | 6m 00s | Pillow Pets | This is so adorable, but there´s not enough food for the animals :(. We should be ale to use the wolf to balance the equilibrium and get rid of some old animals and keep feeding new ones :P. |
| May 1 02:07:00 | 6m 00s | there was a knock | This is fun, but so hard :P. Loved the idea of fixing the scenario to keep the environment safe. |
| May 1 02:16:00 | 9m 00s | The Vale | Love the art style and the atmosphere created by the retro looking music and gameboy-esque graphics. A bit hard, but just like old times :). |
| May 1 03:03:00 | 47m 00s | Neo-Minimalism | Hey, a on rails shmup, you don't see those everyday. Specially on Linux, had to try it out when I saw this detail. Loved the music, fits the game well. Also, nice to see that someone else did his game on Linux! Thought for mine I couldn't manage to get a neutral binary for distribution :(. |
| May 1 03:09:00 | 6m 00s | Strategia | Cool to see games that work out the box with very little effort. Had no problem whatsoever to run it. Nice take on the classical RTS game. Very simple to pickup and enjoy. |
| May 1 03:14:00 | 5m 00s | Press Z | The Linux binary worked right away :). Very easy to pick up and keep playing. However, after a few levels it would benefit from some improvements regarding variety. |
| May 1 03:19:00 | 5m 00s | Blob Runner | Fits nice within the theme, good use of basic shapes to create the entire experience. Had some trouble to get used with the fact that the character runs slightly slower than the scenery, and that I needed to keep jumping to keep up. Other than that, a solid entry. |
| May 1 03:23:00 | 4m 00s | Obscure | What can I say, this is a clear example of how good an experimental game can be. I have to agree with a comment that the field of view is too limited. Keeping the monster invisible was a nice touch, nothing scares more people than their own imagination. Wouldn't ne surprised to see this game as one of the finalists. |
| May 1 03:29:00 | 6m 00s | Speed, Run! | Very good,grate music and good minimalistic art. However, it's a bit difficult to play because the view area is much smaller than the jumps we have to make. Difficult to know if the speed is enough or if we need to double jump. Also, adding a line to set the horizon would definitely help understanding how high in the jump we are. Easy to fix, I think, and would improve a lot the play value. |
| May 1 03:48:00 | 19m 00s | They're Multiplying! | What can I say? You have just hit the jackpot with me, there's no checkbox I didn't tick with your game. Color matching game, twisted (limited) controls, cute looking characters and a good, balanced challenge. For some reason I had no music (maybe a bug?), even though there's switch suggesting there should have been (using Firefox on Linux). Anyway, congratulations, I think I'll keep a bookmark to your game, just in case :). |
| May 1 23:08:00 | 19h 20m | SPACEd out | Very cool, the music was a nice touch to complete the game. Found bit difficult to control, maybe delaying the decreasing action. Like, waiting 1/4 of a second to start decreasing the bar size would help. Sometimes it's very hard to get the bar to the right size and keep it that way. I have to agree with some comments, please send plain binary files, not an installer. We're all developers here and we know how to unzip and run games that way ;). <br/> <br/>A funny note: I saw your screen shoots and I was like "yikes, we did the same game" :). Of course it wasn't the case, but before playing it that was my thought ;). |
| May 1 23:17:00 | 9m 00s | INO | Very nice twist on the Minesweeper mechanics, with cool music. Two suggestions: instead of just changing the grid size, give options to change the player speed. It goes too fast and it's hard to make the right turns. Also, sometimes the game starts right besides a red block and it's an instant game over. Maybe clearing the starting area around the player? |
| May 1 23:27:00 | 10m 00s | Between the lines | Great, loved the puzzle based platforming of your game. Very innovative and challenging. Congratulations, one of the best games I have played until now. Keep the good work! |
| May 2 00:31:00 | 1h 04m | I Dream Of Circles | Nice, but found it hard to get through because of the collision glitch. Try to do a post-compo fix, this would improve a lot the play value. |
| May 2 00:56:00 | 25m 00s | Ginnungagap | Cool idea to play as the monster. I'd have loved if people would scream and run away from us when we got near them :). |
| May 2 01:02:00 | 6m 00s | Peter The Stranger | I couldn't get it to work. Java throws an exception. |
| May 2 01:07:00 | 5m 00s | Time of Wheels | Man, your game is so hard :(. Couldn't get past the first stage. |
| May 2 02:15:00 | 1h 08m | dodecaphony | Quite interesting, but not so straightforward. Telling a bit more to the player could help improve the experience, like giving more directions on what to do and letting the player figure out how to achieve that. That's what your notes did, but the players usually won't see them until it's too late. :( |
| May 2 02:30:00 | 15m 00s | Digital H | Loved the effects, but was very hard to get somewhere with the game. Just a note: the game gets the wrong screen geometry. Judging by the screens above, it was don on a 4:3 screen, but it looks a bit strange on a wide (16:9) screen. Nice to have it working for Linux as well! |
| May 2 02:41:00 | 11m 00s | A Puzzling Composition | Easy to pick up, reasonably challenge and fun to play. I like puzzle/action games, and this one hit the sweet spot with me. Thanks for making this game, I had a good time playing it. If there was anything I'd do different is the controls. I'd have used the keyboard or a gamepad. we could use a key or the shoulder buttons to switch black square. But that's just me being pick on an overall great entry :). |
| May 2 02:55:00 | 14m 00s | Ninja Playground | Very minimalistic, liked the hand draw art. But felt like the game started out too difficult, with no explanation. Maybe starting off easier and ramp up difficulty along may provide a better experience. Can be accomplished with the current engine, just more time to design the stages :). |
| May 2 03:12:00 | 17m 00s | Shadows | Very nice, liked the B&W art. The idea to let light flow through levels is very good. |
| May 4 22:21:00 | 67h 09m | The Game Without Controls | Well, I can say that the control scheme is as minimalistic as it gets, although a bit frustrating at times because it seems we can't get the character to do what we want ;). Loved the large pixel graphics, very stylish. |
| May 4 22:43:00 | 22m 00s | Pure Green | What can i say, this reminds me of old BBS games. Loved playing those :). For what people are saying (I don't know the detail of Twine), this was quite complex to achieve, regardless of the apparent simplicity. |
| May 4 23:04:00 | 21m 00s | Rhynix | Hey, this is challenging! liked a lot your idea, controlling several entities at the same time to reach a goal. However, I also found the bug on one level, for me not only the characters could move inside the wall, as they were not allowed to move on places where there are no walls. Other than that, a very solid entry that I'd happily buy. |
| May 4 23:21:00 | 17m 00s | Tzatzauberer | Very well polished game, nice graphics and very funny. I couldn't stop laughing when I was attacking an angry sheep :). |
| May 4 23:46:00 | 25m 00s | Natural | This is great! Very simple to pick up, yet hard enough to master. There's something for everyone. Sometimes it can get frustrating to collect all yellow dots, but that's only if we want a perfect score. Congrats! |
| May 4 23:50:00 | 4m 00s | Starhook | Very nice, like the idea of a 360º pong variation. However, the random stars are quite hard to keep track. One improvement: (1) some thought about sequencing better the starts and (2) making it a rhythmic based game with some electronic music that goes with the action. Would be very good to play on touch based devices. |
| May 5 00:01:00 | 11m 00s | Haunted Dojo | This is awesomely well polished, loved the mood created by those stylish graphics. It reminds me of classical Japanese horror movies. The only problem here is that all effort went to create that amazing atmosphere. Please keep working on it, adding more variety and goals to complement you great vision of a samurai horror beat'em'up. As a last note, Kudos for providing Linux binaries! |
| May 5 02:24:00 | 2h 23m | Minimality | Shrinking the space ship, now that's something different as far as shmups go. I also like the humor to justify the lack of sound effects. The background and asteroids need some work, but the ships designs are well done for a 48 hour effort. |
| May 5 02:33:00 | 9m 00s | Minimal Acceleration | I missed having some sort of enforcement to keep the car on the road, instead of avoiding all obstacles by going through the grass. Maybe one idea to make the game more challenging, after fixing the grass bug, is to make the car accelerate by itself. Thus the player goal would be to minimize the speed in order to get safely through the obstacles. |
| May 5 02:38:00 | 5m 00s | Morthe | Many thing went just right with this game. The theme helped a lot to create the mood, and the characters look more than right within this setting. Also, the classic adventure approach to manage items in a simple way is perfect. For a 48 hour project, this is a good starting point. |
| May 5 02:42:00 | 4m 00s | Curiosity | Simple, easy to pick up and play. I wish sometimes the human characters, specially curiosity, would move from room to room with an animation, so we could decide what to do best. The simple controls are a plus, BTW. |
| May 5 02:55:00 | 13m 00s | Comic Sans: The Game | I had some problems to run it on Ubuntu 12.04 and OpenJDR6. I had to install openjdk7 and "sudo update-alternatives --config java" to select JDK7 in order to get it to work. Glad i dit it, had a good laugh with this one. Very easy to win, but dodging all those falling potatoes to rescue comicsans was entertaining. :) |
| May 5 03:01:00 | 6m 00s | Prisma | Great entry, loved this cool puzzle game. The only problem I had was to get it to run faster, seems like "spamming" the keyboard depends on the keyboard itself. If you don't mind I suggestion, you could use the SHIFT or CTRL keys to run faster. Other than that, I enjoyed playing your game :). |
| May 5 06:44:00 | 3h 43m | This is not a minimalist game | One of the best games I have played for this compo. Really well don, nice plot and the feeling of a complete game that's well thought out. I missed some in-game tutorial on how to open the map and to start exploring the world (I'll say in your defense that I didn't read the notes before playing). Thanks you did that walk-trough and linked it at the game window, that helped me earlier on until I could do it on my own. |
| May 5 06:53:00 | 9m 00s | Ping | Great, I wish more Atari games were this good back then. Loved the sonar idea and the graphics are just what I'd expect from an old time Atari game. If there's a drawback, is that the sonar usage could be a bit more restricted, with a wait time between each ping. Other than that, great game. |
| May 5 06:58:00 | 5m 00s | Yellow Space | Nice entry, loved the speed feeling. But I think that the way some obstacles are laid out makes the game very difficult. It requires perfect memorization if you want to score high. |
| May 5 07:10:00 | 12m 00s | Shape World | Pros: good, simple and easy to pick up. <br/>Cons: some jumps in concealed spaces are tricky. |
| May 5 07:16:00 | 6m 00s | Wandering in the void | Very hard to pick up. The idea is quite interesting, but the controls don't help (diagonals for the win in the 21st century) and it's very easy to miss. If it was a bit more forgiving and/or the controls were a bit more responsive, I would say it was a good challenge. However, these changes are "low hanging fruits" which I think can be made very easily. |
| May 7 02:14:00 | 42h 58m | Lethal Blow | Hey, nice graphics you got for this one. Wish I could move on the Z plane as well, or had a life bar to track how bad I was doing :). Ran perfectly on Ubuntu using python+pygame. |
| May 7 02:23:00 | 9m 00s | Princess Chardonnay in Bomb Kingdom | Really liked this entry, the puzzle were very well thought. Pity there was no audio, but the graphics made up for that. However, I feel that it strayed away from the theme. Regardless of that, a solid game thart deserves a full version. |
| May 7 02:34:00 | 11m 00s | Requiem | I liked the visuals (no comment on the audio, didn't work under Wine), but the control is very difficult when you have to jump against walls. |
| May 7 03:19:00 | 45m 00s | Street of Rave | Liked the concept and the use of audio to complement the game play. But I think controls are really dificult, maybe if the character would turn faster? Also, kudos for providing a Linux binary. |
| May 7 03:24:00 | 5m 00s | Weapons of Minimal Destruction | Great game, very good graphics and polished audio. Thanks for providing the Windows binary, because I could run it perfectly on Linux using Wine. I think it would be even better if played with a twin stick controller, instead of the keyboard + mouse combination. Also, forcing the use of WASD insteand of providing support for the arrow keys is a major bummer for those holding the mouse with the lef hand. |
| May 8 03:01:00 | 23h 37m | Formless Reliquary | Ok, first of all, kudos for providing a Linux binary. All Unity games should do it in future compos. I liked the aesthetics, very simple and effective. Adding openings with previous failures was a good idea, specially because the scenario gets highlighted at that point. |
| May 8 03:32:00 | 31m 00s | We Dreamers | Took me a while to find out how to fig rooms. After that, things went a bit better :). Nice experiment you got there, liked the idea of interacting with the world and seeing what others left there before. |
| May 8 03:39:00 | 7m 00s | A fish called Revenge | Let's see, you get kicked out of your house by a vicious red fish several times your size. Then you take it on almost innocent squids to get better to beat the giant red fish? This is wrong, all I could do was get myself beaten up (again?) by the red fish, it's so hard. maybe you can get more out of the squid killing mechanics if you take some more time with it. Without power ups, it's almost impossible :(. |
| May 12 05:58:00 | 98h 19m | Toastergeist | Played it on Linux with Python+Pygame, worked perfectly. Just wished we could see the ghosts eating the toasts. |
| May 12 05:59:00 | 1m 00s | Supersto | There's no Unity web player for Linux. :( |
| May 12 06:03:00 | 4m 00s | accord | Hey, I really like this one. Loved the mix between platforming and music rhythm game. Simple but very addictive. Congrats! |
