| Dec 15 19:58:00 | A Blade in the Night | Download exe complains about missing data directory | |
| Dec 15 20:08:00 | 10m 00s | Colour | Cool idea :D Very fitting for the theme. <br/> <br/>As 607 says, I also appreciate how you teach players about dodging colours where needed great job! |
| Dec 15 20:14:00 | 6m 00s | Da' Face | Well... I've learnt something about myself today. I'm not sure what I've learnt, but I've definitely learnt it. |
| Dec 15 20:16:00 | 2m 00s | Direction | One Direction, the game! |
| Dec 15 20:21:00 | 5m 00s | CROSSBORE | Best I've played yet :D Tis a shame you can't shoot up and down though. <br/> <br/>Managed to get to the boss before being taken out really quickly, will be giving it a few more goes that's fore sure! |
| Dec 16 13:52:00 | 17h 31m | OneThrust | I think this could be expanded quite nicely into a larger game. I did feel I was just waiting around for a while though each time I played. If it had some sort of fast forward system, that's be great :) |
| Dec 16 14:04:00 | 12m 00s | Dusty Remains | I couldn't finish it in the end. The fps was low and steady but the real problem was that every time I help the jump key it'd lock the screen. This made precision jumps kind of impossible! <br/> <br/>Shame though, I really liked the concept |
| Dec 17 19:24:00 | 29h 20m | You only get one! (match) | For lack of a better explaination, this one is the most game like entry I've played so far, so well done :D <br/> <br/>Again, can't put it into words, but it just feels right, kind of like a DOS shareware game or something |
| Dec 17 19:32:00 | 8m 00s | LITH | Holy **** that's a tense game! Great use of light, I got stuck down a dead end, knew a bad guy was behind me and didn't dare turn around. |
| Dec 17 19:52:00 | 20m 00s | YOGO Submarines | Fantastic interpretation of the theme :D |
| Dec 17 20:24:00 | 32m 00s | Stranded | Something surprisingly satisfying about this. Unless I am missing something it seems that if you want to stand any chance, you use the Axe. Not beat it yet, have managed to get within 3 seconds :D |
| Dec 17 20:30:00 | 6m 00s | BULLETS ARE FATAL | Echoing everyone else I think, graphics and sound seem amazing, but I really struggled to actually play the thing because of the controls. I will come back to see if it gets updated :) |
| Dec 17 21:07:00 | 37m 00s | Servassacre | Really intrigued by this but as stated the control mechanic is very tough to work with. HOWEVER, once you manage to get a decent amount of guys across the level to the enemies I really, really like the way they battle each other. <br/> <br/>I can imagine with slightly updated controls this would be great, especially with multi touch on a tablet or something. |
| Dec 17 21:22:00 | 15m 00s | Get Up, Get out, Dont Die | Crumbs, intensely hard game! Reminds me a bit of Flail. |
| Dec 17 21:28:00 | 6m 00s | Medieval Fantasy Island | Great effort, unbelievable to think it was made in 72 hours! Well done!! :o |
| Dec 17 21:32:00 | 4m 00s | Monkey Rally | Great all round effort with this. Good intepretation of the theme and really well executed. Reminds me of LOGO. |
| Dec 17 21:40:00 | 8m 00s | Kuerbisroboter | Really very fun :) I hope the development continues. I especially like the fluid and cartoony animations. (Especially the duck!) <br/> <br/>The only criticism I would have is, once a zombie gets too close to you it's very hard to kill them with your fork. |
| Dec 17 21:45:00 | 5m 00s | Climber | It's a shame you can't climb down quicker (unless I missed something?). |
| Dec 18 07:46:00 | 10h 01m | Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs | Made it to 77300 :) <br/> <br/>Innovative take on the theme and surprisingly compelling. If the game have a bit more feedback (sound and animations) it would've been even better. However, I would say it was too easy, at no point did I feel rushed or threatened by failure! |
| Dec 18 09:37:00 | 1h 51m | Byte's Socks | Great all round feeling to this one :) Really smooth game play and engine and it's a game about a robot who doesn't want to ruin his only pair of socks, so you can't go wrong there. |
| Dec 18 13:16:00 | 3h 39m | Drive Coin Crash 3D | Couldn't really run it through Flash, but I'm intrigued so have added it to my TODO list when I'm at home so I can install it |
| Dec 18 13:20:00 | 4m 00s | Bee Honey | Interesting concept and well presented but, I just couldn't get in to it, it seemed a bit beyond fun (for me!) |
| Dec 18 13:23:00 | 3m 00s | Casual Friday | Really good animation and I appreciate the seemingly randomly generated levels :) It needs a bit of balancing attack/jump wise, but great effort all the same |
| Dec 18 13:28:00 | 5m 00s | You Only Get One Worker | I love stuff like this :) Really like the whole feel to it as well, the art style, sound and animations really work well together. <br/> <br/>Maybe I need to give it a lot more time, but it feels a bit slow (and the mouse seems laggy to me, but that might be my PC) |
| Dec 18 13:33:00 | 5m 00s | Fly Treegator | Agreed with previous comments this would be great as a little mobile release, I could see my daughter playing it for hours :D |
| Dec 18 17:08:00 | 3h 35m | Trick or Treat | Great idea, well executed :) I got myself a system going where I'd change one part of my costume and then head back to the house and repeat. Satisfying progressing :D |
| Dec 18 17:15:00 | 7m 00s | Happiness | Haha wow, that was really cool. The last time I bother looking for happiness, that's for sure! <br/> <br/>Really appreciated the level design, I liked how the level blocks were all individual items and a lot of them were interactive in different ways, nice one. |
| Dec 18 20:19:00 | 3h 04m | You only get 1-1 | Anyone else having issues with the download link for Windows? isn't working for me :o |
| Dec 18 20:34:00 | 15m 00s | blomster | Absolutely amazing, the best I've played so far :) The final puzzle before the ending starts is something else, really exceptionally clever stuff. |
| Dec 18 20:52:00 | 18m 00s | The Zombie Skull Seeking Bullet | Haha, unique bullet concept! I felt cheated by an unknown death, but soon realised it's because I shot myself :B Fun game :D |
| Dec 18 21:01:00 | 9m 00s | Go Long!! | I actually LOL'd at the end :D What a crazy game. |
| Dec 18 21:27:00 | 26m 00s | Gem breaker 28 | This reminds me of the Peter Molyneux curiosity game, except for the fact i enjoyed your one :D Simple but bright and colourful, so I'm happy. |
| Dec 18 21:34:00 | 7m 00s | The Present | I think Danman9914 sums up my feelings quite nicely! That said I enjoyed it, and I know my 6 year old will too when I show her tomorrow |
| Dec 18 22:06:00 | 32m 00s | Lost in the Snow | I really enjoyed this. Especially the music, it really nicely sets the tone of a peaceful area after snow fall. <br/> <br/>I think the lack of audible or visual feedback when chopping down trees might put people off trying for longer, I think I found this more confusing because some trees just seemed to fall instantly. <br/> <br/>Either way, I hope more updates are made for this, I enjoyed it :) Though I was playing on my own, I do like the idea of playing it coop! |
| Dec 19 09:35:00 | 11h 29m | Agent One | "Something something power plant, something something bad guys" hahaha :D <br/> <br/>Unbelievable level of polish, it's crazy what some people are capable of. <br/> <br/>I'll admit, I'm here because of your front page post regarding first impressions videos. I'd love to see you do one for my game You Only Get Won http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-28/?action=preview&uid=15929 |
| Dec 19 09:40:00 | 5m 00s | Panacea | I love this kind of thing :) Wasn't sure exactly what my combo was, or how I used it so I just stumbled into an enemy on purpose and realised quickly what I was up to. Nice one! |
| Dec 19 13:15:00 | 3h 35m | YOGOSWAG | Took me a while to give up my 1 swag at the start :( Swag don't come cheap unless you got kid. |
| Dec 19 13:24:00 | 9m 00s | Hero of Tower | I like the platform engine, it's smooth and responsive (as are the animations). Love the wall jump/flip mechanic! However I did find the background colour was a bit too similar to the foreground and it felt slightly uncomfortable on the eye. <br/> <br/>Is the level order random? |
| Dec 19 13:37:00 | 13m 00s | The Trials of Chad | I notice an early piece of text is "sometimes death is useful", was that inspired by the theme that was in the votes? :) <br/> <br/>Very fun game, I like how failing presents you with little perks. <br/> <br/>Music reminds me of Ken's labyrinth for some reason :D |
| Dec 19 13:49:00 | 12m 00s | The Enemy | Haha, on my first play through I (naturally) didn't read the instructions properly so was attempting to make the enemy hit the mines. Turns out this tactic made him last longer than when I tried to help him avoid them :S <br/> <br/>Regardless, love the animation, movement and feel to this one. |
| Dec 19 18:25:00 | 4h 36m | Shopping Madness | Great idea :) When I saw the title shopping madness, I instantly hoped it would be the kind of game you made and it was! |
| Dec 19 18:43:00 | 18m 00s | Oneitis | I tried a few times and I'm too creepy as well :( Innovative idea, but I felt it was lacking some "game" feedback (that said, I think in the real world, the amount of feedback I got from this was probably realistic!) |
| Dec 19 18:46:00 | 3m 00s | LunchLadySimulator2000 | Christ, I would not last long as a lunch lady. Too often I was SURE I had served a student so slapped them only to find out they were innocent. Oops. <br/> <br/>Innovative idea :) Nice one |
| Dec 19 18:48:00 | 2m 00s | You only get one-fail | Getting absolutely no feedback from the game when I try to run it. <br/> <br/>Windows 7 64bit. |
| Dec 19 19:03:00 | 15m 00s | Element Fighter | Love the graphics and movement in the game :) Innovative game mechanic too. However... changing colour was too slow rendering it almost useless as a power up. I found myself sticking with one colour and dodging everything else. |
| Dec 19 19:22:00 | 19m 00s | Who ate all the pies ??? | Hahaha "If your mouse is being a slag!" :D <br/> <br/>Really innovative idea, it's well EastEnders. |
| Dec 19 20:16:00 | 54m 00s | Yuzaro | Hahaha "By the way, you can double jump" after a jump requiring double jump :D |
| Dec 19 20:21:00 | 5m 00s | Atop A Dark Mountain | Lovely stuff! Reminded me of Zelda LTTP :) Oh and I really enjoyed the timelapse and found a new tool (Font Struct) in the process! |
| Dec 19 20:29:00 | 8m 00s | Present Delivery - a HunDevelopers production | Was going to say some times it's impossible but then I went and... you know... read the controls, where I learned you can cut down trees :D <br/> <br/>Love the fact it's procedurally generated and while it was simple, it held my interest! |
| Dec 19 20:39:00 | 10m 00s | Feeding Bafflements | I've put this on my todo list, I'm going to have to come back to it when I'm more awake! |
| Dec 20 09:59:00 | 13h 20m | Lobo | The original idea sounds exciting, but yeah, as stated, it's lacking in the game play capacity |
| Dec 20 10:03:00 | 4m 00s | A Snowball's Chance In Space | Like the concept and especially the enemy ship movements but I am clearly missing something because I couldn't tell when I should be using my one missile. |
| Dec 20 10:12:00 | 9m 00s | One Button Wonder | Awww man, genuinely gutted when it finished :( Great concept well realised too :D |
| Dec 20 10:20:00 | 8m 00s | Yogo Grenade | Haha! To start with I was thinking "eugh, this is too easy, you can just spam (spam spam spam) the portal and stop the rabbits getting any where but then I had to RUN AWAY. <br/> <br/>Fun little game :D |
| Dec 20 10:26:00 | 6m 00s | Junktion | Great concept well executed, I love the "vision" effect when you are your hearing ability, is that a shader or clever geometry? The "you died of radiation" graphics is gross too! |
| Dec 20 10:39:00 | 13m 00s | Bugged Bot | Brilliant and unique effort :D I know time is always an issue, but it would've been great it it were a bit longer. Also I loved the crawling animation |
| Dec 20 17:30:00 | 6h 51m | [OBVIOUS] | Haha nice one :D The prices could do with highlighting before you attempt to buy things, but either way it was intriguing all the same! |
| Dec 20 17:34:00 | 4m 00s | One Earth, One Defender | Nice smooth gameplay, and good controls. Gotta say though, I gave up before 1,000,000 because it got a tad repetitive. |
| Dec 20 17:41:00 | 7m 00s | Mega Gungineer Chronicles 3: Final Gun! | Extremely good looking, fast paced and with good sound but... very little in game feedback and the aiming seemed a bit screwed up to me, I get the whole multiple guns thing but it felt awkward when I couldn't just aim forward with at least one gun. |
| Dec 21 10:21:00 | 16h 40m | Fighter-01 | Haha, interesting concept, nice one :) I was able to feel in control when I wasn't being shot at, but the second fire was returned I began to struggle |
| Dec 21 10:33:00 | 12m 00s | Lost In Transmission | Great all round effort, which introduces lots of different elements :) I love the lil animation when you fail, poor robot :( |
| Dec 21 10:35:00 | 2m 00s | First Ludum Dare Submission: Star Supremacy | Like moomoo, I get instant failure some times too! Almost as if the game is still running while I am on alternative menues |
| Dec 21 10:45:00 | 10m 00s | SinglShot | Nice feel to this one :) I like the bright graphics and smooth enemy movements. |
| Dec 21 10:59:00 | 14m 00s | Yogo's Adventure | "Yogo is a lumberjack bear and recently gained magical powers!" Hahaha :D <br/> <br/>Level 2 is amazing, you played me, you played me good! |
| Dec 21 11:09:00 | 10m 00s | Ultra Awesome Cartridge! | Hahaha absolute genius :) Especially liked Tetris :D |
| Dec 21 11:21:00 | 12m 00s | Straight Ahead | Interesting mechanic that just went to show me how unnatural it felt. That is, I'd plan what I would do and then all of a sudden I couldn't do any or it so had to plan from scratch again, nice one! |
| Dec 21 11:26:00 | 5m 00s | Triangle Shooter Gather Level FTW XX ! | Kept managing to get stuck above the red line :S That said though, it was a fun game that kept my interest for longer than expected |
| Dec 21 16:00:00 | 4h 34m | Hrytz's Sunday | I'd love to see a full size map of this game, the level seems huge! I find the different scroll styles intriguing, specifically when you first find the bike, it seems a bit laggy and smoother. |
| Dec 21 16:18:00 | 18m 00s | You Only Get One Pig | Amazing :D <br/> <br/>Never managed to win the race but I love the DDR round :D |
