| Dec 17 12:14:00 | St. George's Day | Is there a reason why it takes me through the dialogue every time I restart? <br/> <br/>Anyway it's polished, but it was also very unclear to me that I could use SHIFT without reading the controls. (You can blame me, but nobody will as well, and the introduction text was too long imho :P) <br/> <br/>Apart from these issues, it's quite polished and it manages to be fun. <br/> <br/>Good job! | |
| Dec 17 12:17:00 | 3m 00s | _You only get your keyboard! | Not incredibly fitting with the theme, but certainly a fun game. <br/> <br/>When the ship explodes, its graphics is not remove. You should only leave the explosion animation, otherwise you don't send clear feedback to the player whether the ship is dead or it was just hit once. I found myself very confused by it at the start. <br/> <br/>With some slightly more polished graphics and a better font, this could be a nice game. <br/> <br/>P.s. <br/>I lol'd at the Loading screen. |
| Dec 17 12:20:00 | 3m 00s | Hospital Trash | As I clicked on the web player, it immediately sent me to Game Over. I don't seem to be able to click on the button to re-try :( <br/> <br/>I am on Mavericks, using Chrome. |
| Dec 17 12:25:00 | 5m 00s | Shadow Night | HIghly unpolished but a good start. <br/> <br/>I am not sure if the ghost is supposed to do anything, it just kept colliding with me. Also, either the lamps have a really weird color or they are missing a texture. <br/> <br/>IN terms of level design, I am not sure what is the purpose of all these big, empty, rooms. |
| Dec 17 12:27:00 | 2m 00s | UniSwarm | Not an original concept, but still nicely executed. <br/> <br/>I love the graphics. Good job. |
| Dec 17 12:28:00 | 1m 00s | ENDLESS NIGHT | Deep and touching. Very good! |
| Dec 17 12:30:00 | 2m 00s | One Refuge To Keep | I feel thrown back playing this game, the graphics aren't there but the tension is. Nicely done! |
| Dec 17 12:31:00 | 1m 00s | FowL Play | Game's nice and well executed. <br/> <br/>A couple of remarks: <br/>- The sound of the player getting hit is terribly annoying <br/>- It's quite easy to rush through the level without having to actually shoot something for a long part of it <br/> <br/>Ultimately, it was fun. Really cute graphics. <br/> <br/>Also, removing game features to fit the theme is funny. |
| Dec 17 12:32:00 | 1m 00s | One More Bullet | Very cool! Just like good old reflex games. |
| Dec 17 12:34:00 | 2m 00s | Jump Chip | The scrolling background is adorable, love it. <br/> <br/>I am not sure about the difficulty curve, as the game got frustrating immediately for me, but maybe that's because I am not a fan of hard platformers :) <br/> <br/>Good job on the graphics of tileset and characters. Maybe music and sound effects may have been better, but overall a great entry. |
| Dec 17 12:38:00 | 4m 00s | GetOne | Couldn't open the .jar files, can you put some instructions? Thanks. |
| Dec 17 12:39:00 | 1m 00s | You Only Get Hitbox One | This made me genuinely laugh. To be honest I think you could have increased the difficulty in a much better way, and the game mechanic could have been more fun. <br/> <br/>But the style of the drawings + the bosses were hilarious. |
| Dec 17 12:40:00 | 1m 00s | You only get the mechanics | ROTFL <br/> <br/>You got me |
| Dec 17 12:42:00 | 2m 00s | Bullet Dare | Nice game, though it takes a bit to understand how it works. |
| Dec 17 12:45:00 | 3m 00s | Only One Chance to Kill Souperman | I can't access the index for the game. |
| Dec 17 12:47:00 | 2m 00s | L1FE | Very simple game. It works, though it could've been better. |
| Dec 17 12:52:00 | 5m 00s | Sludge City | Very cool idea, the gameplay's nice too! |
| Dec 17 12:54:00 | 2m 00s | One Douchebag | I found it quite funny :D <br/> <br/>The graphics of the guys especially were great! |
| Dec 17 12:57:00 | 3m 00s | One Soul | Graphics are nice and the concept could be cool, but I am not sure if I am having any effect or not. You say I can choose only one but I did it twice... bug? |
| Dec 17 12:59:00 | 2m 00s | Star Chase | Plain, but graphics and audio are catchy. |
| Dec 17 13:01:00 | 2m 00s | YOGO PATH | Cute graphics. Controls could get some more polish, but in general it's fun. <br/> <br/>I am not sure how much the theme is actually fitting tho. |
| Dec 17 13:04:00 | 3m 00s | Impoverished Starfighter | Looks and plays very well, but it's hard as hell! |
| Dec 17 13:06:00 | 2m 00s | Light Escape | Looks very good, but it's a bit slow to play and has a lot of tiny bugs. Wish it can be improved upon. |
| Dec 17 13:08:00 | 2m 00s | PixelSurgeon | Not bad, but it's a bit plain. |
| Dec 17 13:15:00 | 7m 00s | The Samurai's Lonesome Heart | LOVE the game over screen. <br/> <br/>Nice game, although it was really confusing for me to understand that I had to hit the swords and not the enemies themselves. I have to say that the delay of the controls did not help :) <br/> <br/>Really neat atmosphere. A bit buggy though, enemies go through walls often. Polish this up and then publish it, it's a good game! <br/> <br/>(Hardly fitting with theme tho) |
| Dec 17 13:18:00 | 3m 00s | Lovely Bullets | I am in love with the atmosphere of this game. Absolutely amazing. <br/> <br/>Also the aestethics. Wow! <br/> <br/>The problem is tho, that, at least to me, enemies' movement pattern is not clearly recognisable, and I fail to understand how to avoid them. Maybe I am just not fast enough. <br/> <br/>Really nice game tho :) |
| Dec 17 13:26:00 | 8m 00s | A Trip To The Moon | Really nice presentation and mood. <br/> <br/>Not challenging, but that's not what the game aims to be. <br/> <br/>If I can express an opinion as a designer, imho the fact that the "checkpoints" are squares makes it dubious to the player whether he should get inside them or not. Since I am colourblind, I could not understand if it was green or red, therefore I had no idea if I would have died hitting the first one. <br/> <br/>Nice game, although not really fitting with theme. |
| Dec 17 13:29:00 | 3m 00s | Dungeon Dash | Really nice lighting effects and 3D pixel art. <br/> <br/>A couple of complains: <br/>- Why do I always spawn facing the walls and not the enemies? <br/>- Why don't you keep the mouse locked at all times, even during loading screens? <br/> <br/>Overall I like it, but how does it fit with the theme? |
| Dec 17 13:37:00 | 8m 00s | Cat Gentlemans Play: Insult Spinner 10 Cents | HIlarious xD Loved it |
| Dec 17 20:18:00 | 6h 41m | A Blade in the Night | I like the idea, and I think the gameplay could be great fun, however the controls are not really working. There's too much delay of the sword movement from the mouse, and the animation seems to start later than the mouse click. <br/> <br/>I like the idea, I think it's not really well fit with the theme, but there's potential :) |
| Dec 17 20:26:00 | 8m 00s | Loop Desert | Really nice graphics (although I would have liked a bit more work on the background, but that just polish) and brilliant idea. <br/> <br/>It took me some time to understand how it worked, but I was really amazed when I did. Great job! |
| Dec 17 20:30:00 | 4m 00s | 0RBITALIS | Really great game. Love the aesthetics. <br/> <br/>It took me some time to understand how it worked, but instead of being frustrating it was a rewarding process. <br/> <br/>Only, the game seems to freeze once in a while, I am not sure if it's intended or if it's flash or my PC. Kinda annoying. <br/> <br/>Great game overall! |
| Dec 20 08:56:00 | 60h 26m | Golf Quest | The game itself is not bad, "only one life" is a little bit overused in this jam. <br/>Anyway if polished can become a fun game! |
| Dec 20 14:34:00 | 5h 38m | Tall Grass | Interesting idea, has some potential |
| Dec 20 14:39:00 | 5m 00s | RGB - So sweet your television will break | Good job, very polished for the amount of time it was made in. |
| Dec 23 16:49:00 | 74h 10m | Nero Is Falling | Polished, but has some control issues. |
| Dec 23 17:10:00 | 21m 00s | One Pickup One Spell - LD28 | This was a bit unplayable for me, to be honest. It's really difficult to understand who I am at the start, the camera seems to follow more my arrow keys press than the character, and it takes me A LOT before I find the first ability. <br/> <br/>Why isn't the character even slightly different than the other enemies? <br/> <br/>I like the idea, although not super fitting with the theme. |
| Dec 23 17:17:00 | 7m 00s | Cubric | I like the idea behind, but I think the first level is too much trial & error. I had to come and read the cheats in the description to understand what to do. <br/> <br/>Game design is a very subjective field, but I think that you cannot leave the player like that in your first level. The array of possibilities is too big to have a trial & error level. I did try at least 10 combinations before putting it near the blue cube. <br/> <br/>I know that is not logical, as the player may try all the combinations with the coloured cubes, but in my mind I thought I did place it once on the blue cube but apparently I did not. <br/> <br/>At the end, a nice idea anyway :) |
| Dec 23 17:24:00 | 7m 00s | Unibrow | Basically Paper Mario done during the Ludum Dare :) <br/> <br/>Nice realization. Graphics could have been better and controls need much more polish, but in general the game works. <br/> <br/>The idea is not really fitting that well with the theme though. |
| Dec 23 17:28:00 | 4m 00s | One Shot | Neat visuals and interesting concept. A bit of polish and it'd be a great web/mobile game. |
| Dec 23 17:30:00 | 2m 00s | Fountain | I like the idea and what the concept expresses (if my interpretation is correct). Not necessarily a "fun" game, but certainly an interest experience for what concerns me. <br/> <br/>Incredibly well fitting with "You only get one". |
| Dec 23 17:34:00 | 4m 00s | The hunter | What an AMAZING concept. I love it. I think that I die a couple of times even though I killed the "monsters" before they got me, and also encountered a couple more bugs, but apart from the technical problems I really dig the realization. <br/> <br/>I think the theme could have maybe fit better, but this is an EXCELLENT entry. <br/> <br/>Congrats. |
| Dec 23 17:35:00 | 1m 00s | Elves' Eve | A lot of little imperfections that make it not-so-great, but not bad overall. |
| Dec 23 17:39:00 | 4m 00s | Cure the infected! | I really really like the concept, however this is really unpolished. You could have done so much more with the graphics and the controls to make this great. <br/> <br/>This has great potential, and it's in general a nice entry :) |
| Dec 23 17:50:00 | 11m 00s | One Path | The platforming controls really need to be better :) I could not finish the game, I was too frustrated by the controls of the game. |
| Dec 23 17:52:00 | 2m 00s | Aperalim | The player could be helped a bit to play the game better, would help the game itself. Does work, though. |
| Dec 23 18:04:00 | 12m 00s | Lumen | I think that the graphics of the lethal elements should be more distinguishable by the background, but apart from that, quite a good game. |
| Dec 23 19:54:00 | 1h 50m | Flowing Death Fist | Nice effects, but overall quite plain. |
| Dec 23 20:01:00 | 7m 00s | Hamsters in Space | Killing off the hamsters by accident (or on purpose) is quite sad and there doesn't really feel a need to drain their oxygen anyway. |
| Dec 23 20:04:00 | 3m 00s | Dreams of war | Nice effects considering the amount of pixels involved. |
| Dec 23 20:06:00 | 2m 00s | "a sword game" | Quite hard, and very nice idea. |
| Dec 23 20:12:00 | 6m 00s | Captain Sarah | Nice graphics! It's hard to control without being able to break, but it adds to the fun. |
| Dec 23 20:14:00 | 2m 00s | Clicky Blocks | Nice idea! It's quite similar to our own, Monocraft. |
| Dec 23 20:33:00 | 19m 00s | Daddy Rises | Addicting and catchy tune, you should tweak the speed though (if you don't start mashing right away it might take a long while to win). |
| Dec 23 20:39:00 | 6m 00s | You Only Get 1 | Very neat idea! Quite refreshing, I must say. |
| Dec 23 20:42:00 | 3m 00s | Love or gold | Quite short, and can be tweaked a bit to make it more entertaining. I loved rescuing my love, though. |
| Dec 23 20:45:00 | 3m 00s | Short | Short and intense. Sorry to read you couldn't work on it much. |
| Dec 23 20:51:00 | 6m 00s | ONE | Stunning, I must say. Stunning. |
| Dec 23 20:56:00 | 5m 00s | Extractor | Looks a bit blurred, but OK otherwise. |
| Dec 23 21:02:00 | 6m 00s | You Only Die Once | Neat game there. I don't get one thing, though. Was it made in XNA or in Unity? Or did you make the Windows version in XNA while making the web version with Unity? |
| Dec 23 21:04:00 | 2m 00s | Protecto El Dorado! | Eye-popping (quite literally). Must say that while it's simple it still feels very good to play. |
| Dec 23 21:07:00 | 3m 00s | Oneitis | Not very polished, but the concept behind it is very fun. Hope you can make a proper version of this game. |
| Dec 23 21:09:00 | 2m 00s | The Chipper | Not too bad considering the time put in it. The guards fail very often though, and the web version is a bit messy (especially with clicks). |
| Dec 23 21:11:00 | 2m 00s | At The Count Of 3, Baby, I Hope I Disappear | I'm afraid I don't get it. Good try, nonetheless. |
| Dec 23 21:13:00 | 2m 00s | Rocks-n-Blaster | Very simple graphics and gameplay, but very engaging and fun. Thumbs up! |
| Dec 23 21:18:00 | 5m 00s | That One Coin | Very fun, my sincerest compliments! I love reading all the text the game throws at me (it's a bit hard, though, especially in the "avoid this" Matrix part). |
| Dec 23 21:23:00 | 5m 00s | Metal Track | Nice idea for two players. Had to look hard to find a friend to play it with, ih ih ih. |
| Dec 23 21:31:00 | 8m 00s | You Only Get One Ludum Dare 28 | Nice message, though it could've been expanded upon. For the next LD, make something bigger. ;) |
| Dec 23 21:38:00 | 7m 00s | Pandora's Crate | It's fun, though the theme is loosely interpreted. |
| Dec 23 21:40:00 | 2m 00s | YOG1D | Nice interpretation of the theme! |
