Dec 17 09:44:00 Pillage Rush The music, the ambiance, and the background story get you right into the mood. I liked the game even before playing.
Dec 17 09:51:00 7m 00s Wall of Fingers I like the world, strange and interesting, goes well with the music.
Dec 17 10:37:00 46m 00s She: A Game About Life I really enjoy the game, the overall experience. Some parts were a bit long, but it kept me going because of the story.
Dec 17 10:48:00 11m 00s Grizzly Bet Which such nice graphics, I was hoping for a bit more playability.
Dec 17 13:36:00 2h 48m Going Around Nice work on the decor, lighting and ambiance.
Dec 17 13:43:00 7m 00s The Hotdog Parable Nice simple concept. I just couldn't figure out the controls immediately, but I found the shop menus eventually.
Dec 17 21:15:00 7h 32m Bermuda Mention "Web", not "Windows" for where to play the game. I didn't think I could play the game on my mac.
Dec 17 21:47:00 32m 00s One Outcome (is all you get) I like the atmosphere, and the mystery at the beginning. I got annoyed by the fact that you can't go the next text by clicking, but I guess it's part of the mood. <br/> <br/>Surely, there can't be just be one outcome, I'll keep trying ;-P
Dec 17 22:00:00 13m 00s Game of One nice one. <br/>good thing you only get one submission.
Dec 18 00:34:00 2h 34m Follow The Leader You should host the game on a flash website, so people don't have to download it to play.
Dec 18 17:51:00 17h 17m Round toe Wow, you really made this in 72h? I'm impressed
Dec 19 10:31:00 16h 40m Agent One Nice work, the realization was top notch. I do have some critics though: <br/>- Playing in the browser, the performance was pretty choppy. Ok, I'm on a mac, but still! <br/>- I'm not a big fan of games that force you to use both keyboard and mouse for controls. I think the game would be fine if the character just turns towards the direction he's moving, and I can just press a key for punching/shooting. Perhaps you can just add an option to change controls. It's probably fun to play with one hand on the mouse and the other one on the keyboard, but I'm playing on a laptop and my mouse is the trackpad!
Dec 19 10:38:00 7m 00s Stretch Bouquet Point kinda looks like you just put a couple 3d models randomly into a world. Still, the experience was somewhat interesting.
Dec 19 10:41:00 3m 00s Nov 15 Very funny idea!
Dec 19 11:05:00 24m 00s The One Fork Restaurant At first, I thought "What kind of idea is that?", but the game turned out to be quite addictive.
Dec 19 11:49:00 44m 00s Incomplete Not bad for a 72h adventure game. I have to say though, I'm disappointed that the missing/restored limb has no effect on the gameplay or even the story, it just seems there to relate to the theme.
Dec 19 12:09:00 20m 00s You only get one shot to be famous A strange experience
Dec 19 12:17:00 8m 00s Gods of the Yggdrasil I have yet to see a game that does multiplayer well. The main problem is: It has to be ok even when there's nobody else in the room. <br/>Aside from that, I think the idea is interesting, just not very clear if you don't read your comments. I noticed one god who keeps swapping characters. Perhaps if you just show the name of the power, then we'd think "Oh, that's cool", rather than being all confused.
Dec 19 12:21:00 4m 00s You Only Get One ... Fairy God Mother The font at the beginning is very annoying to read
Dec 19 12:38:00 17m 00s Natural Sheep Care One of my favorite, nice job on the artwork
Dec 19 13:01:00 23m 00s Magpie There's something slightly annoying about picking the items, but I can't quite put it. It's either the choice of keys or perhaps the collision detection with the items should be increased.
Dec 19 13:17:00 16m 00s Penguins Gone Mad cute penguins
Dec 19 13:24:00 7m 00s Static Room The controls flow well, but having to just try random combinations with the switches is kinda annoying. Also, I know there's not a lot you can do in 48h, but some graphics with animation really do make a difference.
Dec 19 13:30:00 6m 00s 1 I'd rather go with the philosophy "If you have only one thing, you CAN do pretty much anything!"
Dec 19 13:39:00 9m 00s PixelSurgeon An interesting take on "the game of life"
Dec 19 13:44:00 5m 00s Game Of Life I feel it would be visually more appealing if the cells didn't animate.
Dec 19 13:52:00 8m 00s Penguin Feeder Simulator 2000 I got exhausted trying to think like a penguin.
Dec 19 14:04:00 12m 00s Wilhelm's Escape It's not all logical, but still fun to play because of all the animations.
Dec 19 17:24:00 3h 20m Stingtime for Hitler The levels are clever, but the premise of the game makes it hard to understand what to do at first.
Dec 19 17:41:00 17m 00s The Game of Fun Kudos to your kids! <br/>The only thing I found a bit dodgy is the controls. The jump button sometimes doesn't work and that's very annoying (should I blame the programmer? ;-P)
Dec 19 17:47:00 6m 00s You only have one quantum hyperdimensional nuclear fusion powered neuro-AI cube...and button I understand this is experimental, but I find the idea with having only one control very annoying.
Dec 19 17:59:00 12m 00s Who ate all the pies ??? Yep, it really feels like Captain Blood, especially the voice over
Dec 19 18:14:00 15m 00s Gravity Assist Nice visuals. I feel the trails of old paths should have less opacity though
Dec 19 19:05:00 51m 00s Mama is Sick What a cruel game! <br/>After constantly failing at saving everyone even without going to school, I just tried the other way around, letting my family starve to death so I could study. <br/>I was smiling the whole time until the end, graduated with high honors, and even got enough money to buy me some chic clothes! Yep!
Dec 19 19:36:00 31m 00s Elimination Protocol reminds me of portal
Dec 19 20:39:00 1h 03m Last One Except for the fact that I hate games that use both keyboard and mouse as controls, this game is pretty solid and fun to play! It reminds me of Another World.
Dec 19 20:52:00 13m 00s You only get one chance to survive ! Interesting take on each handicap
Dec 19 21:02:00 10m 00s Airlock One I like the creation aspect. I didn't get how it relates to the theme though.
Dec 19 22:43:00 1h 41m An ordinary story about death Quite touching. I noticed there was less choices towards the end, but it's not a big deal.
Dec 20 02:50:00 4h 07m Hasty Pirate I like the little story elements, like the reveal before the boss.
Dec 20 03:00:00 10m 00s SPELLBREAKER I think green for correct position and blue for correct color would have been a bit more intuitive.
Dec 20 04:52:00 1h 52m One Good message
Dec 20 05:14:00 22m 00s Creator Story Saga Tycoon Pretty engaging, but one nice thing would be to see some creatures you purchased roam around on a planet.
Dec 21 07:01:00 25h 47m Nirvana [web] Good message. One thing you should change, is that the money doesn't get deducted on the first level. I can just imagine someone trying the game, being a little distracted and not paying attention, then suddenly seeing the win screen and thinking: Well that was pretty lame!
Dec 21 18:40:00 11h 39m Tough Interesting idea, but if someone doesn't read the spoiler, they might dismiss it as just a simple platform game with nothing more to it.
Dec 21 20:11:00 1h 31m Dead Planet I've seen other games with similar gameplay, but the style and smooth controls makes yours much better.
Dec 21 20:25:00 14m 00s laserbug It's interesting, but you really should have the player restart the same level until they solve it (or at least a button to do so). The point of the game is to solve puzzles, not to get a high score.
Dec 21 21:38:00 1h 13m Try to fly I like how your friends cheer for you and boost you.
Dec 21 22:22:00 44m 00s A Precious Arrow Your idea is similar to my original one (one bullet), kinda glad I didn't go for that. Having only one arrow is frustrating! <br/>Game's is pretty hard. Nice graphics. I did prefer your previous LD entry.
Dec 21 22:42:00 20m 00s Ultimate Wish 5 stars graphics
Dec 21 22:51:00 9m 00s Ludum Simulator 3000 Je sais comment je vais soumettre mon prochain LD29: http://goo.gl/2k3S1v <br/>Idée de genie!
Dec 21 22:54:00 3m 00s Purpose Great style, and inventive gameplay.
Dec 21 23:10:00 16m 00s Princess Kingdom Very fun game, I love the discovery process. I just wish the game saves your state when you exit the screen.
Dec 22 00:44:00 1h 34m Heart interesting idea but the game is a bit too glitchy for me. How do I give my heart?
Dec 22 00:48:00 4m 00s Glitcher //nuts = 1 Another entry that looks like it was made on drugs ;P
Dec 22 01:42:00 54m 00s The Superior Resolution Begin adventure and Leave ashamed have practically the same effect.
Dec 22 01:52:00 10m 00s APOKEALYPSE Very strange
Dec 22 05:36:00 3h 44m The dragon journey This reminds me of one of the worst game I created called OMGAF Dragon!
Dec 22 08:07:00 2h 31m Uno Terra Very polished graphics and nice music. Controls could be a bit simpler.
Dec 22 20:10:00 12h 03m Sweat Marathon The graphics are not bad, which made that win screen was quite a shock!
Dec 22 20:15:00 5m 00s Duck Kid's Quest A good start
Dec 22 22:15:00 2h 00m ($SRCROOT)\dungeon Not bad! The graphics look a bit better than the thumbnails suggest, but it could still be improved. I like that going from room to room is a smooth transition (the character stay in the same position).
Dec 22 23:24:00 1h 09m TITAN SOULS Nice level design of the world and variety of each boss. It sucks you have to start from the beginning when you die, because it takes so long to walk to a boss. <br/>The scrolling of the world is a bit jerky at times.
Dec 23 00:03:00 39m 00s Point&Click Concept Nice graphics style, which really reminds me of Another World by Eric Chahi. It does seem more like a proof of concept than a game at this point, so keep working at it!
Dec 23 01:48:00 1h 45m Nero Is Falling Excellent way to draw you in! At first, I was enjoying the nice ambiance, without really knowing what to do. I got into a pod and ditched my crew by chance, then it tells how I died, but one of the crew managed to escape. Got it! I'll start over.
Dec 23 02:25:00 37m 00s SUPERBLADE Solid and simple gameplay
Dec 23 02:37:00 12m 00s One Word I was a bit more interested by it than normally because the code was visible as we play and it looked very short and simple. Hopefully you can turn this (or your next project) into something with interesting content and graphics.
Dec 23 02:56:00 19m 00s Doubt Very nice visual. I can understand there's a lack of gameplay if it's an art piece, but I ended up stuck and never figuring out the story or message. It looks very nice, but it needs substance somehow.
Dec 23 03:00:00 4m 00s Will You Be The 1. Pretty cool gameplay and music, and I like that you show the number of people who've gone that far (btw, are the stats real?). It'd be even cooler if the other mouse cursors are actual mouse movements from people who played the game.
Dec 23 08:16:00 5h 16m A Night on the Express Very nice atmosphere, a lot of content for a game made in 72h. K so I failed in hardcore mode after I couldn't gather anymore clues. You can't tell me who was the murderer? ;-P
Dec 23 09:53:00 1h 37m Refuge Interesting story, and the strange environment also provided a nice mood. I like the mystery of the place they're in, and that's it's open to imagination. For me, I imagine a bunch of teenagers stuck in some house doing drugs, and one day they decide to just snap out of it. It only lasts one day instead of two years, but the drug makes them lose track of time.
Dec 28 07:09:00 117h 16m One Strike Very artistic, nice feeling that the art is ink on paper. <br/>BTW if you want to make the game available in the browser, just copy the [download] link from dropbox and remove everything after "?". <br/>Like this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/5s3i6ull1idsntb/One%20Strike.swf
Dec 28 07:15:00 6m 00s The Ronin Good animation, not just for UI but also the UI. Good production value.
Dec 28 07:17:00 2m 00s Darkest Friday Funny names!
Dec 28 08:04:00 47m 00s CAN YOU MAKE A HIT MILLION-DOLLAR GAME IN ONLY ONE TRY didn't like the theme, huh?
Dec 28 08:14:00 10m 00s Toy Soldiers Nice nostalgic reminder of lemmings, but the soldiers move a little too fast. Also, where do I send them?
Dec 28 08:35:00 21m 00s The Bubble Innovative and fun gameplay. One thing though, shouldn't the bubble get bigger as it absorbs other bubbles?
Dec 28 08:54:00 19m 00s One Bullet Yeah, there's a lot of one bullet games, but it never gets old...
Dec 28 21:48:00 12h 54m Race The One Without a score counter or a timer, the game doesn't have much meaning. The racing aspect is fun though, so hopefully you can reuse that for a more interesting game.
Dec 28 23:32:00 1h 44m YOGO RocketFist Very fun to control the fist, challenging enemies and the upgrades all enhance the gameplay. Nice art, and it's impressive that this was made in javascript. <br/>My only complain would be... well I've been playing the game for quite a while, and I was hoping for a boss, or an ending... or at least a level counter... or am I missing something?
Dec 29 22:21:00 22h 49m Magnet Chan Thanks for sharing this at the meetup. It's a very cute game.
Dec 29 22:27:00 6m 00s Puzzlyderm Nice concept, I like the freeze power. I hope you can evolve this game even further
Dec 29 22:36:00 9m 00s You Only Get One Read your post-mortem. ...geez I was wondering where all your strange ideas came from! <br/>Nice idea to turn the layout of a simple game into an adventure game itself.
Dec 29 22:38:00 2m 00s Dan the Newspaper I'm glad I got a live reading of this game at the meetup. I don't know if I would able to handle so much reading, but listening to it sounded really fun!
Dec 29 22:40:00 2m 00s Exterminator Nice game you showed us at the meetup. Rats have caused us nightmares, so it's great I finally get my revenge!
Dec 31 06:15:00 31h 35m You Only Have One Egg i wanna hatch the egg!!
Dec 31 07:43:00 1h 28m Impressive Dog This game is overloaded with cuteness!
Dec 31 08:37:00 54m 00s faif A new interesting gameplay. I was a bit confused in the beginning, but got it after a few tries. The post-jam version looks good
Jan 6 23:12:00 158h 35m You Only Get One Ball Hey, nice to see you also made a soccer game! Please, check out My Champion when you get the chance.
Jan 13 12:38:00 157h 26m Rude Bear Resurrection Hey I just found out about this little gem. Very interesting idea, I like the social aspect. I hope more people play this game some we can pile up bodies and try to finish the game.
