|---|---|---|---|
| Apr 30 06:23:00 | Elite Submarine | $58 and Level 2... love the boss and the particle effects! Might want to put instructions at the start (for the controls and stuff). | |
| Apr 30 06:29:00 | 6m 00s | Folicular Rustling | Okay, so the fingers squash the ticks and then I eat them? I got score "BRO"... a nice, surreal concept. |
| Apr 30 06:34:00 | 5m 00s | DeepGlow | Seems like it took a while between yellow dots appearing, and the pink ones were really annoying. I love all the different enemy attacks, though! (Are those really your sound effects?) |
| Apr 30 06:38:00 | 4m 00s | Hide-n-Stab | Hm, no real people to stab... |
| Apr 30 06:45:00 | 7m 00s | Disorientation. | It's got a great atmosphere, but it's just too dark and I can't see anything. I know that I'm supposed to be blind, but it's not much fun being blind. Great use of sound effects. |
| Apr 30 06:49:00 | 4m 00s | Run, Run, Robot | I love the music, and it's fun to play, but I'm not fond of starting way back at the beginning when I crash into a wall. |
| Apr 30 07:06:00 | 17m 00s | Laser Match | Kind of addicting as a puzzle, but I'm not so sure about multiplayer--you can destroy the other player but keep playing? I got 5 in a row but I'm not sure what happened. |
| Apr 30 07:13:00 | 7m 00s | Mars Station 23 | The payoff is definitely worth it. |
| Apr 30 07:25:00 | 12m 00s | Digulator | Love the graphics, and it's fun to play too. A bit frustrating when you're first figuring things out, but I got the hang of it. |
| Apr 30 07:28:00 | 3m 00s | Diggin' Dodge | It's fun. It's frustrating about how hard it is to dodge, but it's balanced by how much damage you can take before losing. |
| Apr 30 07:48:00 | 20m 00s | Stroppy Swan | An elegant game! There is nothing I would add or remove. |
| Apr 30 07:53:00 | 5m 00s | Flesh Hunter | Very fun to play, and great music too! I just wish there were a way to get life back, and it's frustrating when enemies drop on top of you. |
| Apr 30 07:59:00 | 6m 00s | Race Your Reflection | I win! Well, it's a game, and it's a complete game where you can win or lose. |
| Apr 30 08:02:00 | 3m 00s | Beneath My Skin | It's surreal playing a game in a console window that has music! (P.S. I won the game.) It's a bit hard to suss what's going on with the text, but I'm sure you knew that. Nice music! |
| Apr 30 08:06:00 | 4m 00s | What lies beneath the Temple | Okay, this is hilarious. I love the script. |
| Apr 30 08:11:00 | 5m 00s | Surface Invaders | Love the software 3D graphics. Can't seem to beat level 3. |
| Apr 30 08:16:00 | 5m 00s | Goat Guzzler | Hard, but fun. And hilarious. Great graphics and sound, too. |
| Apr 30 08:25:00 | 9m 00s | Demon Dungeon | Fun, but the small world is big, and the medium world is ridiculous! (Also, please use ZIP instead of RAR next time?) I like the potato, but make it more powerful :-) |
| Apr 30 08:33:00 | 8m 00s | SUPER LANDSHARK MISSILE ATTACK! | Puny humans! Not terribly fond of the bullet time, but it is a FUN game. |
| Apr 30 08:42:00 | 9m 00s | Beneath the Surface | Very beautiful and great atmosphere; but very difficult. I could never get past the 4th skeleton. |
| Apr 30 08:56:00 | 14m 00s | The Sun And Moon | Amazing! Didn't get past level 14, but it's a very lovely game. |
| May 1 03:12:00 | 18h 16m | Tiny Haunt | A bit easy, since I can pick most knights off at my leisure. Otherwise, it has a nice feel and lots of potential. |
| May 1 03:24:00 | 12m 00s | The Fields | Nice puzzle! With the instructions were in the game, as opposed to on this page. Play was a bit slow, but it had great ambiance. |
| May 1 03:32:00 | 8m 00s | Escape the Terror | I kept on getting teleported back to the start, I think? |
| May 1 03:37:00 | 5m 00s | Dark Maze Escape | Frustrating that enemies would suddenly spawn around me, but I'm very glad it didn't send me back to the beginning. |
| May 1 03:43:00 | 6m 00s | What Could Go Wrong In A Submarine? | A bit challenging... hard to jump on top of the bookcase, for example. |
| May 1 03:47:00 | 4m 00s | To Surface | "The person decided to do a suicide with some way." I laughed hard, that was funny! And wow, a PDF game... |
| May 1 03:53:00 | 6m 00s | Diver | Nice, but I don't much see the point of continuing after you beat the first level or two. |
| May 1 04:02:00 | 9m 00s | Metro Lance | Fun action, but it gets a bit long. Also kind of un-fun for three machine guns to spawn back to back. |
| May 1 04:10:00 | 8m 00s | Siren Song | Wow, nice and polished! I feel like it was too easy to get hit by the cannonballs, like they shouldn't damage me underwater. |
| May 1 04:17:00 | 7m 00s | Water Miner | Enjoyable but not challenging. |
| May 1 04:37:00 | 20m 00s | Beneath The Clouds | Had a hard time figuring out what kind of effect I had on the world, but I love the atmosphere. |
| May 2 07:47:00 | 27h 10m | IO - Reflection/Puzzler | Wow, nice! I played this through to the end, although the puzzles were a bit easy. The instructions at the beginning are in a big block of text, I suggest splitting it among different levels as you introduce elements (although that can take precious time). |
| May 2 07:53:00 | 6m 00s | From Benath | The attacks can be a little frustrating as you keep moving around humans you want to attack, but it is a fun game. |
| May 3 20:47:00 | 36h 54m | Beneath The Lab | I love it! I couldn't figure out the puzzle with three green plates. I think the voice-overs were fine. |
| May 3 20:50:00 | 3m 00s | Beneath the surface | Sorry, not going to play games that make me enter my password :-( |
| May 3 20:54:00 | 4m 00s | The Creature Beneath | I died every time I entered the third room... |
| May 3 22:40:00 | 1h 46m | Roverboard | Looking forward to seeing you next Ludum Dare, maybe with a bit more game :-) |
| May 3 22:52:00 | 12m 00s | Shadows Below | "The program can't start because libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing from your computer..." I had the same kind of problems when porting my Linux game to Windows :-) |
| May 14 08:24:00 | 249h 32m | "It's all Ogre now" | I think... I won? |
| May 14 08:26:00 | 2m 00s | aoutch! | The ads are just fantastic. |
| May 14 08:30:00 | 4m 00s | Attack of the Martin Vegetables | It's a bit hard to figure out what's going on if you didn't read the instructions. I like the look of the graphics with the artwork casting shadows. |
| May 14 08:38:00 | 8m 00s | Aztec | The controls are a bit difficult to get used to, and the game is a bit repetitive. Lovely music and audio. |
| May 14 08:43:00 | 5m 00s | Cave Mining | Requires a bit of a wait to get the teleporter, and there's nothing to do in the meantime. |
| May 14 08:46:00 | 3m 00s | hellcrossing | It has a great vibe, but it is a bit hard. |
| May 14 08:53:00 | 7m 00s | Broken Heart | Impressive! I love the atmosphere. I'm not fond of restarting at the beginning. |
| May 14 08:58:00 | 5m 00s | Wunderheilung | Amazing concept! It's such a fascinating game but I can't figure out how to get past the hook on the hand. |
| May 14 09:03:00 | 5m 00s | Hot Diggity | Quite a game! Seems kind of harsh at the beginning, and I fought the controls, but I love the music and art, and it's fun to play. |
| May 14 18:57:00 | 9h 54m | Beneath Plutonia | The interface is a bit hard to understand, but I liked the in-game tutorial. |
| May 14 20:27:00 | 1h 30m | Truth | I wouldn't have added any colliders to the torches, since bumping into them just means you get stuck (I read some of your post-mortem). I would also make the messages stick around longer, I often couldn't read the entire message. The script could be better, but the art is great. |
| May 17 16:54:00 | 68h 27m | SnakeFormer - Half Snake, Half Platformer | Hard getting past even level 2... with some more levels, it is definitely publishable. |
| May 17 16:59:00 | 5m 00s | Please Come Back | Wow, what a great game! |
| May 17 17:24:00 | 25m 00s | Generic Adventure Game | WOW! How do you beat the boss? |
| May 17 21:38:00 | 4h 14m | You Don't Want That | A bit... obtuse. Thanks for writing a walkthrough, I needed it. |
| May 17 21:55:00 | 17m 00s | Deep Dungeon | Nice! I just made a beeline for the level exits, and that was a lot faster. The graphics and feel are very nice. |
| May 18 06:41:00 | 8h 46m | Underworld Evolution | Wonderful! I'll probably be playing this again. Too bad about the music not following the rules. |
| May 18 06:56:00 | 15m 00s | Heaving of the Depths | Great graphics, but I couldn't get past level 3 to fight the three octopuses and I felt cheated when I accidentally bought a second speedy sail. Lots of potential here! |
| May 18 08:02:00 | 1h 06m | Declivity | Fun, and challenging! The level generator is a bit buggy, so things spawn in walls. It's scary when you go down a level and hear the kitties dying. |
| May 18 08:40:00 | 38m 00s | denudation | Fun, I managed to beat it! I like that I didn't get sent back too far when I got hurt. |
| May 18 08:45:00 | 5m 00s | Beneath The Surface In The Sky | The mouse on the web player is a bit finicky, it seems to lose focus easily. Also, there are two rings outside the track! Beautiful, though. |
| May 18 08:47:00 | 2m 00s | Miner Grievance | Playing on Windows 8.1, it quit with no message. I looked at event viewer and found this: <br/> <br/>Exception Info: System.IO.FileNotFoundException <br/>Stack: <br/> at LD29.Program.Main(System.String[]) |
| May 18 08:53:00 | 6m 00s | The Only Way is Down | Loved the sound effects, graphics, and gameplay was good. But the controls! I wish it were a easier to control the player. |
| May 18 09:06:00 | 13m 00s | Candyland | Wow, even with the one ending this is such a wonderful and twisted vignette! The cuts scenes were amazing! |
| May 18 09:21:00 | 15m 00s | Hollow Planet | I had trouble accidentally drilling through to the bottom and dying, but it's a great concept and a fun game! |
| May 18 09:32:00 | 11m 00s | Tenkosei ROBO | Jeez, what an awesome game. Needs some difficulty settings, I found it a bit easy! |
| May 18 17:32:00 | 8h 00m | Darkness Shines Through | Impressive content, but maybe a little less content and some more polish would have done some good. I'm not sure what the purpose of *not* sprinting is, and there's a building where you can jump in through the roof which seems buggy--there are a bunch of cultists on the ground level, and a clue above, but even when I jump through the roof, it doesn't trigger entering the building, you have to use the door, which is one-way. I liked that you could explore farther with powerups. |
| May 18 17:40:00 | 8m 00s | Understanding LD | Solid entry for a first LD, no complaints about the mechanics. |
| May 18 18:02:00 | 22m 00s | Diggleton Jr | Cool! It needs some feedback when you get hurt, because it's hard to tell. It was a bit frustrating until I got the ladder item. I wasn't sure how to use the potion items, I clicked on them but nothing happened. |
| May 18 18:09:00 | 7m 00s | The Westport Independent | Absolutely lovely! Minor issue with the controls... it was too easy to accidentally drag a paper into the "deny" folder instead of reading it. |
| May 18 18:22:00 | 13m 00s | Blackwald Forest | Very nice! The timing is a bit hard to work out, though. |
| May 18 18:58:00 | 36m 00s | Underground Fortune | Would be nice to get a little more feedback when you get hit, and the bats seem to go through you when you're fighting them. Otherwise, a cool game! |
| May 18 22:46:00 | 3h 48m | The Dead Beneath | Nice and crisp action but no challenge. Increase the spawn rate over time, make ammo limited, or do something to make it so the game will eventually end. I absolutely loved the rain effect! |
| May 18 22:49:00 | 3m 00s | Baking Simulator: 2014 | Impossible to control with a Logitech gamepad :-( |
| May 19 00:08:00 | 1h 19m | Deep Blue Home | Fantastic, just amazing. |
| May 20 00:45:00 | 24h 37m | Kinetectonic | Managed to beat the game. Fun! I would have liked the graphics to be a little higher resolution, so it would be easier to tell the different kinds of things apart. Also, the ending music is crazy bass-heavy, maybe ease up on that. |
| May 20 00:53:00 | 8m 00s | Moles Warriors | RAR format makes me :-( please use zip <br/> <br/>It would be nice to put the 1-4 key descriptions in the game, I thought something was seriously wrong with level design after a couple plays until I came back to this page to look at the description more carefully. Impressive level and enemies. Not fun dropping into a pit with spikes you can't see at the bottom. |
| May 20 00:58:00 | 5m 00s | Temple of Ra | Wow, pretty amazing! It's compelling right from the start, which is a mean feat for such a short time. An export for Windows or OS X would be really nice, since I had problems with the web player losing mouse focus and it would be nice to play this full screen. |
