Apr 28 20:29:00 Deep Shit Not bad for 4 hours. A little too much maze :) I really thought I was going to make it, but got impatient and a shark got me in the upper part of the maze before the open water :(
Apr 28 20:42:00 13m 00s unTouchable Very nice effort for 48 hours. Great art and I love the sound track! I finally figured it out. Use the yellow ball to distract the critters, then jump down, get the blue ball and take it back up and press the blue button and it kills the enemies? Nice effort.
Apr 28 20:48:00 6m 00s VR Mowing Hero 2014 Great effort! I loved the idea and driving around. Hard to play without an Oculus as it was hard to see the arm. Me best time was about 1:00. Nice art and sound effects. I can see Homer Simpson driving around on a Saturday afternoon. :)
Apr 28 20:58:00 10m 00s Cave Harrier Loved it! Great job for 48 hours. Was very glad you didn't have lives (?) so I could finish it and see it all. I probably died about 7-8 times. Only real crit is that it felt overly sensitive to me in terms of control. Could definitely see continuing with this on the side, polishing it up, adding art and maybe tilt controls for iOS. I'd buy it :) Nice job.
Apr 28 21:04:00 6m 00s The Mole Hole Great idea and pretty fun for 48hrs. I kept thinking about Caddyshack :) I never made it much past 45 secs or so, about when the difficulty increased. Could definitely see something like this on mobile.
Apr 28 21:09:00 5m 00s Badrock Machine Fantastic art, and get job for 48 hours. Pity about the crash as I got it too and only about 40 points in. Once I "got" the idea that the left and right bars corresponded to A and D it clicked. Would perhaps suggest putting the keys above the bars, or something? Neat idea and a ton of work in here for a weekend. Really dug the art style and watching the little guy run around inside and whack on panels with a crow bar :) Do work to fix the bug and re-upload. That's fine.
Apr 28 21:17:00 8m 00s Beneath the Surface... Adventure There's a lot here, and nice effort for 48hrs. I wasn't clear on what to do, but I found the stairs and got to the next level, then was stuck. People very often put up post-compo versions of their games and that's what I'd suggest here. Perhaps work on it a couple days more (get switches moving, reduce jump height (I was able to clear walls! :)), etc). Keep going :)
Apr 28 21:24:00 7m 00s Hunger Pains I was only able to get to about 20 humans eaten, or so. Liked seeing the monster grow underground. Pretty fun and complete for 48 hours. I wasn't sure when I gained from eating a human (I guess when their blood flew out?) I tried to wait for clumps of them to gather up. I didn't grasp that moving cost me energy at first, but once I did, there was some strategy to it.
Apr 28 21:28:00 4m 00s Sandworm Rampage This is great! It's super fun to manage the purple shooters with the health and eating people. There's a great game and mechanic here for sure. Could see something like this doing well on mobile. It's the right size. This is a great effort for LD and 48 hours. Very complete experience. Nice ramp up in difficulty, too.
Apr 28 21:36:00 8m 00s Ocean RESCUE I liked it! Very fun and polished for a weekend game. Seeing the monster shadow under the surface was cool. Great art. Would have perhaps liked a little tighter steering on the boat or faster speed (more arcade-y in feel?) Terrific job. Loved the lighthouse, too.
Apr 29 02:49:00 5h 13m The Sea Has No Claim Lucas, this game is fucking badass. It took me a while to figure it out (about 7-8 fails). Once you do, the mechanics are gold and it's a super fun puzzle game. Very very well done, even on the compo version. I played about 5 levels.
Apr 29 03:11:00 22m 00s Kontroise Audio is fantastic. I really liked this game. Perhaps the ship could have been a little more responsive? Slow to turn and all. Can easily see this being a bigger game with more things to shoot/dodge (need tighter controls) etc. Very well done. Ran smooth and nice, too.
Apr 29 03:17:00 6m 00s Tunnel Runner Played 10 times or so. Never got to where I had to shoot anything (not far enough). I started with the mouse and quickly abandoned it, as I couldn't speed up or slow down. Pretty fun, looks great and nice for 48 hours. Would suggest stuff like a speed meter on screen and maybe hull damage so you can take 3-4 hits before dying? Great job.
Apr 29 03:22:00 5m 00s Side B, Track 1 Great idea. I think I'd pursue it post-compo and work out the glitches. I flipped time and time again but it just wasn't quite solid enough. You nailed the light cycle vibe and I really wanted to play that. I'd recommend raising the camera a bit so you can see more. Keep working on it!
Apr 29 04:28:00 1h 06m Beneath the GRID Fun and original puzzle game. Well done for 40hrs. Would continue to add to it and polish and consider mobile release. Some sort of direction indicator, maybe, or non spinning grid? I do like the spinning and seeing things closer and it being more dynamic, though.
Apr 29 04:36:00 8m 00s DRAANG I loved the vector graphics and audio. I confess to having no idea what to do? I played a while (10 mins) and collected things and killed guys and flipped back and forth, but didn't understand the goal. Very slick and well done game. Would suggest putting some goal/how to play on the page above?
Apr 29 05:04:00 28m 00s Watch Your Step I - LOVED - THIS - GAME. Everything from the art style to the mechanics. Very very well done, imo. I had trouble with the game at the start and thought it was broken. It wasn't clear I had to dig on the rock pile, so the horse wouldn't move and I kept spamming keys. Make that more clear. I really loved the sci-fi nature of it and the art. Best LD game I've played. Just my sort of game.
Apr 29 05:23:00 19m 00s Infection This is really well polished and incredible for even 72 hours. Love the vivid art style and colors. Had some pretty severe frame rate issues on a powerful iMac.
Apr 29 05:41:00 18m 00s It Came From The Sewer Great game. Seriously great. Loved the music, art and play mechanics. Really fun puzzle game. Polish and work on some more and release somewhere. It's worthy.
Apr 29 07:34:00 1h 53m Mole Position Good game for 48hrs. I got confused a lot about jumping and wall hanging, but that was my fault. A little strange to mix that with smoothly digging around.
Apr 29 07:40:00 6m 00s Wriggle Worm That collision sound has to go! Slick and polished game though. I got 650 or so after a few tries.
Apr 29 07:43:00 3m 00s Atomicle - LostAutumn.net Great game. Especially for 14 hours? I loved the gameplay. The sounds and the screen shake were very satisfying. Suggestion: Make the red dot be the thing that hurts you and the triangle reverse you (and maybe a "safe" color). Great work.
Apr 29 07:48:00 5m 00s Please Come Back I like this game. Very similar to what I did with my entry (check it out) :) Well done for a short time period. I was sad when the boat faded.
Apr 29 07:55:00 7m 00s Kill or Kill Great art and music. Like the transition between killer and normal. Collision for picking things up was rough. Great job overall.
Apr 29 08:04:00 9m 00s Inside Look Activity Book Pretty brilliant. Love the uncovering effect (will have to dig into the source for this) :) I went through all the pics until the started repeating and assume that was all there was? I really enjoyed myself. Fun on a basic level.
Apr 29 08:11:00 7m 00s Deep Nice effort and ran well. Pretty fun. Really liked the music.
Apr 29 08:19:00 8m 00s Captain P Good effort. Would continue on it and keep polishing. Keep jamming :)
Apr 29 08:22:00 3m 00s Plop Away Well, I give you points for owning it and going there :) Good job.
Apr 29 08:27:00 5m 00s Beneath Europa Came for the 2600 aesthetic and it delivered. I really liked the super-retro look and the art. I would keep going on this. I'd like to be able to move more openly, fire, and collect powerups. A 2600 style modern shooter at 60fps :) Keep working on it.
Apr 29 08:33:00 6m 00s Deep Blue Surface Nice job. I liked the pixel art a lot. Played 3 levels or so. Wished I could press down to dive faster. Maybe a speargun? I'd keep working on it and add a few more things to it. It's a very solid base to build on.
Apr 29 08:42:00 9m 00s Down Solid entry. Really liked the music, especially the ending music. Art was super nice, too. Well done.
Apr 29 08:54:00 12m 00s Balancitos Super nice entry. Well done. Clever idea, neat mechanic and great physics. Art is great, too. You need to finish this up, polish more and release on iOS and get rich. It will sell A LOT. Go forth.
Apr 29 09:06:00 12m 00s Something Fishy Loved this. Great movement and controls. Really felt snappy and fun to move around. Great art and sounds. Lotta fun.
Apr 29 09:27:00 21m 00s A boy and his Hellworm Bar none the best LD game I've played yet. Feels like a fully fleshed out arcade game. The controls, art and gameplay are perfect. Super amazing job for 48hrs especially. What's not to like about back to back boss fights?
Apr 29 10:14:00 47m 00s Debt Diver Great graphics and tight controls. Great job. Keep working on it.
Apr 29 10:17:00 3m 00s Hammerhead Sharks Against Humanity That was supremely satisfying and fun to play. Great idea. Add more stuff to eat and kill and #winner.
Apr 30 00:33:00 14h 16m Alien Buddy: Beneath the Surface of a New Mexico Landfill I had fun! I really liked the 2600 style art and I loved how topical this was to this weekends dig. Great job.
Apr 30 10:18:00 9h 45m Finish Him! Haha I enjoyed this. Was surprised and the action was fun. Really liked the lo-fi art (good job there). Well done for 6 hours. Would sneak an update that lets you skip screens faster :)
Apr 30 10:37:00 19m 00s Mine Explorer Graphics are AAA. Great. Not much game there, but that's ok. It plays well, looks great, good music and this is a very nice little framework for a game. I loved the small rooms and super small/easy obstacles. Each room was bite sized. Would easily play through 100 rooms of such things. Nice job.
Apr 30 10:47:00 10m 00s Lair Raid 2: Battle in the Deep Dark Graphics and music are really nice. A lot of times I had to move my guys away from enemies to complete my turn. I'd keep working on this. Lots of potential.
Apr 30 11:25:00 38m 00s Drowning in Problems And now I'm sad. :) <br/> <br/>I ended up lonely, bitter and accepting and I died! I tried to not lose friends. Life is hard. <br/> <br/>Nice game.
Apr 30 11:31:00 6m 00s Mountain King Liked the art and music. Really liked how the music changed and got mre tense as you got deeper. Trolls creep me out and coupled with the slow reloads of the period weapons it's a tense game. Well done. Nice work for 48 hours. The controls and ladders work very well and that's not easy to get right.
Apr 30 13:08:00 1h 37m Dolphin and Rainbows !?!?! Absolutely love the audio of your kids. Brilliant and sweet to make a game with them. End result is fun to play and nice to look at. I like her art. Only gameplay suggestion would be to make all the baddies black or something so they stand out from the rainbow squids. Great effort. You're a great dad.
May 1 03:49:00 14h 41m Wormhunter Absolutely loved the art and music here. Very well done. I killed the worm.
May 1 09:56:00 6h 07m In Hiding Very moody and creepy. I've yet to be rescued but will keep trying. Made it the the 3rd visit. Reminds me a little of Gods Are Watching Us from a past LD. Very nice job.
May 2 06:41:00 20h 45m Battle Through Hell! Solid entry for 48hrs. Agree with above that guys move too slow and you shoot too slow, etc. But you could easily tweak numbers for an afternoon and make the game a ton better and faster paced. Please keep working on it. Very solid base here! Good job.
May 2 08:31:00 1h 50m Surf Camp: The Legend of the Surf Ace Wow, awesome. One of the tightest, best playing arcade games this jam. Great music and art. Stellar effort. This would have shipped and made millions in the 80s :)
May 2 08:49:00 18m 00s Ludumsub Well done! This was super fun to play. Nice art and puzzle design. Music was fitting too (yay random music!). The dark levels got a little frustrating, but very very solid effort. Top marks.
May 2 10:27:00 1h 38m Berserker Awesome entry. Probably my favorite so far. Great art, great mechanics, great music (love the track). My only wish would be for checkpoints (still trying to finish it). Absolutely great effort.
May 2 11:49:00 1h 22m Neath Absolutely loved the art style. Top notch. Would love to play an entire game that looked like this. Great effort. Puzzles were simple but there's a fantastic base to build on here. Please consider making a full adventure game. I'd buy it.
May 3 03:38:00 15h 49m Escape Enclosures Expeditiously Neat game. Well done for 48 hours. I really liked the mechanics. There's and endless amount you can do with this. I'd keep working and polishing it, and imo, I'd work to release it on iOS/Android. I think you can even get away with the simple shaded look. Would perhaps increase movement speed?
May 3 05:06:00 1h 28m Surface Loved the lo-fi art style and colors. Well done. Music fit well. Like others, it took me a bit to figure out what to do (grab the dropped food) while avoiding the bad fish? in the water? I was initially more scared of the fishing line. Neat idea and well executed. Good job.
May 3 05:22:00 16m 00s DIG! DIG! DIG! I like this! Very simple an effective. Neat take on an endless runner. Good job. Very easy to build on this concept.
May 3 05:37:00 15m 00s Sub Bomber What do i think of this game? I FUCKING LOVE IT! Got 7 after a few tries. Absolutely love the gravity/physics switch from above and below water. Great job. Fun and addictive.
May 3 06:01:00 24m 00s Hell Manager Could have a fun little game here with some more gameplay. <br/> <br/>The "kfc" and "watermelon" stuff was not ok. Do some research as to why.
May 3 06:31:00 30m 00s staying beneath the sea 17900. Liked the overall idea and lowering the water is a good idea. I would keep polishing this and passing it to your friends for feedback. Spend a couple weeks on it and polish it as far as you can. That's really where the magic of making games is (and where a lot of the work it). Nice effort. Keep going!
May 3 06:38:00 7m 00s Soulitude Really liked the audio and fx when you switched worlds. Art was nice. Solid entry with a message. Continue working on it.
May 3 06:45:00 7m 00s Planet Corp. Great entry. Liked the mechanic of drilling, avoiding blowing the planet up and the movement of the ship. Was satisfying to play.
May 3 07:04:00 19m 00s A Bigger Fish Loved the graphics and audio. Played 6-7 times and got stuck on the snail/black jets at the bottom. Got past 3 of them and a phys bug had the 3rd tube putting the snail on the roof and I had no way to get past 4th. I really loved the mood here and just exploring. Would keep working on it and polish up the physics. Nice effort.
May 3 07:15:00 11m 00s Beware The Balrog Played the Web version solo, but got the idea. Nice art and idea. I liked racing through the dirt and liked the effect of clearing dirt. Good job.
May 3 07:45:00 30m 00s pixel bat attack I won! <br/> <br/>I want to commend you for being 9 and participating and finishing your game! That's amazing. Your game was well thought out, had a goal and obstacles. That's what any game fundamentally is, under the surface. Keep making games and always be improving. I know many videogame superstars today that started coding when they were 9 :)
May 3 07:49:00 4m 00s the vole beneath Excellent art and animation. It was fun to play. LOVED the mechanic or moving the dirt around. Is there just the one level? Great effort. Make more levels and add some more elements. I think you the potential for a real nice puzzle game here.
May 3 08:01:00 12m 00s Necronomicon Graphics and audio were nice. Appreciated the mini map. Solid entry. Would keep working on it and polishing. <br/> <br/>&gt;&gt;The time limit is really annoying because it's hard to get back to the altar... <br/> <br/>I felt that way too.
May 3 08:14:00 13m 00s Evolve Fantastic graphics. Kept me playing. I was never able to finish, though. Got about 7-8 orbs and would always die. Great effort. I will return to it, to try and finish.
May 3 08:49:00 35m 00s Surface Tension Solid game! I had a lot of fun with it. Only got to level 6. The mechanics were fun once you got into it. Would play 50 levels of this but would want the game to save per level :)
May 3 09:08:00 19m 00s Beneath The Surface Fun game. Visually interesting. Seems time based as you really can't avoid enemy fire? Nice job. Keep developing this.
May 3 09:23:00 15m 00s Dungeon Jelly Nice. Loved the visuals. The gameplay was tight and clever. Very very solid effort. Color wheel stuff is hard to do, though. Perhaps some hint when things are near as to what is deadly, etc?
May 3 09:56:00 33m 00s The Find Nice art and fishing mechanic. Good job, overall. I did not understand why it was redirecting me to web pages at all.
May 3 10:10:00 14m 00s In Too Deep The pixel art is great. Animation too. I wish there are some gameplay or puzzles to solve, but time is short. I'd keep working on this. I'd definitely play adventure games in this style. Nice job.
May 3 10:26:00 16m 00s Beneath the City /applause as usual. Very nice work.
May 6 13:06:00 74h 40m Under Google Really liked the art style of the place and the characters especially. Great effort for Sat/Sun and the updated version with sfx/music is much improved. The elevator whooshing sound was great. :)
May 10 05:24:00 88h 18m Beneath the Surface Gorgeous art. Fighting was frustrating and I died like 10 times on the first skeleton. After killing 4-5 skellies, I died and had to start over at the beginning. Will play more, but feel the combat is too hard and unforgiving.
May 10 05:42:00 18m 00s The Creature Beneath Nice effort for 48 hours. I think the hazardous platforms were a little hard to read so I kept trying to land on things, dying and having to start over. I would continue polishing and working on this, based on feedback. Good job.
May 10 06:00:00 18m 00s Dig Hard Killer game. Very well done. Super fast gameplay and fast restarts. Failure was fun and painless. Great job. (I'd probably ditch the digging squares/indicator and just dig out squares near the player?)
May 10 06:04:00 4m 00s AHH LAVA! Fun game and a neat idea. Worked very well. Good job for 48 hours.
May 10 06:39:00 35m 00s Water Miner Graphics and tech are nice. Something to really build on post compo. Sound effects cracked me up :)
May 10 07:04:00 25m 00s Sail What a great 48hr entry. Was fun to figure out where the fish were. Was fun to just drive around and explore. Was SUPER fun to use the treasure maps and pull up treasure. Well done. Would expand on this and keep doing on it.
May 10 07:22:00 18m 00s Beneath your feet Graphics, audio and mood were nice. Nice effort. Little confusing in a couple of spots, but easily fixed with some polish.
May 10 07:38:00 16m 00s FoxyTank Nice job for 48hr. Found all 20 parts and escaped! Really liked the music track.
May 10 07:44:00 6m 00s Volcarnosaur Loved the origami style dino art. Would play a game that looked like that. Solid entry for 48 hours. Probably needs a faster countdown or something so you have more challenge or risk? Tweak it some more. Neat idea here.
May 10 07:51:00 7m 00s Deep Dungeon Clicked for that art, and liked it :) Nice effort for 48 hours but it is rather hard. I tried 4-5 times to get out of the first room and even pulling enemies 1 at a time I ran out of health. Good start though. Would encourage you to continue building and adding to it. Nice base here.
May 10 07:58:00 7m 00s Frustration Like the art style, camera work and even music. Got stuck after falling down and opening blue door? I ran back up, across and went everywhere I thought I could go.
May 10 08:04:00 6m 00s Pig Cave Nice effort for 48 hours and lots of content. I would continue to polish it and add clear goals and things to the game. Keep going and learning.
May 10 08:09:00 5m 00s C=AVERUNNER Nice job for 20 hrs. I ended up with about 50 pts. Nice visuals and mood. Would work on some more and polish as much as possible.
May 10 08:13:00 4m 00s Depth Graphics and audio were nice, but like others, I had difficulty with the controls, so I was never really sure of the goal, or made it very far :( Changing remappings on keys generally leads to more player frustration and confusion than anything else.
May 10 08:19:00 6m 00s Descent| Fantastic entry. Very nice puzzle game and mechanics +++ Perfect game length in terms of levels and attention span. I have nothing to add to make this game better except that you should finish it, add more levels and items and release it. Nice job.
May 10 08:38:00 19m 00s Generic Adventure Game Very clever and very well done puzzle game. Original. I liked it a lot.
May 10 08:48:00 10m 00s SEA MONSTER: ATTACKS HUNTER Short. Sweet. Style. Fun. Great entry. Loved the music and art. The battle music was LOL great. Well done.
May 10 10:51:00 2h 03m In Deep Slick game. Well done. Took a bit to learn how to time the harpoon but it was fun to dodge and shoot and the water effects look nice.
May 10 11:01:00 10m 00s Escape from Hellsmouth Depths That was fun! The ship controlled well and it was fun to shoot things. Well placed repair items. A boss! And what's great? You checkpointed me before it. Great job.
May 10 11:14:00 13m 00s Dive Very nice job. Outstanding music, and the visual are very nice. Controls are tight. This is a great job for 48hrs.
May 10 12:40:00 1h 26m Search Beneath the Surface Good job! Nice art. Short and sweet. The pieces were easy to find and logically placed. Nice little platformer for 48hrs. I would continue to work on it and add challenges for the player.
May 10 12:43:00 3m 00s Switcher Neat idea for a game. Would keep polishing it up. Could be a lot of fun.
May 10 12:50:00 7m 00s Damned Scouts! Neat game. Great art and sounds, and cool idea. Reminds me of Pocket God on iOS. Was fun discovering all the different ways to kill them. Perhaps a little too much walking?
May 10 13:10:00 20m 00s Heaving of the Depths That was fun. Ran around, leveled up, killed the Toadfish. I love the art. This is a great job for 72 hours and you have all the elements here to expand on and make this a real game. I really enjoyed steering around and looking at all the art. Great job!
May 10 13:19:00 9m 00s Infinite Island Interesting idea and very very well presented. I would certainly keep working on it and see where it goes.
May 10 13:24:00 5m 00s Fappy Bat Cave Edition Solid effort for your first LD. I scored about 10. The way you learn is doing what you did here...clone another game. Keep going, polish this up some more and then on to the nest game. This was fun.
May 10 14:26:00 1h 02m Helevenium Phenomenal. This is the Dark Souls of Ludum Dare 29. Period. The combat was fantastic. Always felt like it was my fault and like I wasn't good enough when I died. Finished it and I'm glad theres not a Lives counter :) Great entry. One of the best I've played (100+). The core gameplay is just fun.
May 10 15:19:00 53m 00s Beneath The Ice Very slick and nice game. Was wondering when/how it would end :) Nice job and great art!
May 14 06:57:00 87h 38m our god lives underground Great sense of mood and I liked the visuals. I walked forward and rode a couple of elevators? Did I miss anything? Would keep working on it and add gameplay. Would be a neat little rpg.
May 19 22:59:00 136h 02m Ripple Runner Fantastic game! Amazing music (best I hear in 100 entries, probably), nice art and mechanics. Really well done.
May 19 23:59:00 1h 00m Kitsuni Great game. I finished it and only had to cheat to find out about the birds (I thought they were crystals). I enjoyed the mood, sfx, and puzzles. Some good stuff in here. Great job. With polish on controls and collision you'd have a neat game here, and if extended, would be worthy of iPad, imo.
May 20 02:44:00 2h 45m Under The Earth I think you need to honestly think about why ppl are upset. This is clearly a clone and too close. Same boulder, same water/sliding, same hud, basically same everything, with minor changes. This is PERFECT for learning and for growing and developing. It's not really great for a game jam. This is objectively the wrong thing to do for LD.
