Dec 7 19:41:00 Talking Heads Amusing and entertaining, also confusing. <br/>Cool entry!
Dec 9 04:45:00 33h 04m 1 Screen Hero Fun game! It looks cool when you change floors, good job!
Dec 9 04:56:00 11m 00s Nodevious Really nice graphics, the clouds and the sun look amazing, cool entry!
Dec 9 05:09:00 13m 00s Ludum Bark Beams This made me lol, good bark sounds
Dec 9 14:07:00 8h 58m Oscillation Nice style, solid controls - the zoom feature works well and suits the theme nicely, good job! :)
Dec 9 14:30:00 23m 00s Microscope Great art style, soothing ambient music, easy to pickup controls/mechanics - really well done!
Dec 9 14:34:00 4m 00s Totem Chess The game seems to work well from a functionality point of view - can't say I noticed any bugs or issues, however I think it would be worth including more instructions on how the game works. I was unsure of exactly how to control my units (if at all possible). <br/> <br/>Overall good effort and great job getting a game submitted to the jam :)
Dec 9 14:50:00 16m 00s Dudley Digger Diamond Driller Like the retro style and sound, interesting controls mechanic - good job on getting this submitted for the compo!
Dec 9 15:04:00 14m 00s SchneeMannschaft Liking the background music and overall gameplay. <br/> <br/>The other players seemed to swarm on the ball and cause it to quickly shoot around sometimes, but I can imagine that putting in an advanced player behaviour script would take more time than is given for Ludum Dare. <br/> <br/>Great effort,
Dec 9 15:11:00 7m 00s T-Rekt Basic mechanics combined with a simple graphic style makes this a neat little dodger game that is great fun to play and easy to pick up. <br/> <br/>GameOver screen resolution seems to be a bit distorted. Looks like it may use a low res texture instead of GUI elements? <br/> <br/>Overall great job and keep up the good work :)
Dec 9 15:21:00 10m 00s One Screen For Screens Shooting Screens At Screens This is a really sweet effort for your first game - great job! <br/>I did a very similar design for my first game about a year ago :) <br/> <br/> <br/>Nice style, responsive controls, good difficulty curve. <br/>One thing I've noticed is that the 'fire' sound seems to be very short and play VERY quickly - this can sound a bit glitchy/noisy on my speakers. <br/> <br/>Overall quite impressive for your first game (especially as you mention switching languages twice during the jam? wow) - keep 'em coming!
Dec 9 17:28:00 2h 07m Yuki and Snow The art is very nice and I enjoyed the setting, however I got stuck and gave up after I used the broom on the watch, sorry :(
Dec 9 17:35:00 7m 00s P.Rick Airious Very neat idea, but I couldn't get on with the jumping, ended up losing repeatedly around level 25 or so. Other than that I enjoyed the game quite a bit :D
Dec 9 19:09:00 1h 34m Escape The Screen Excellent concept! I thoroughly enjoyed it until I got stuck with the text box for entering the password for the 'users' folder.
Dec 9 19:27:00 18m 00s Darumaban Cool idea! And well presented too!
Dec 9 19:31:00 4m 00s ProtoBot Pretty cool game! <br/>Gets tough fast, just how I like it :D
Dec 9 19:36:00 5m 00s Disco Kitty Nightmare Haha, brilliant!
Dec 9 19:49:00 13m 00s Too Many Windows Solid, fun to whack the windows around frantically searching for the buttons, kept me playing for a bit to beat my highscore. <br/>If it looked like a desktop with actual windows I think there'd be something even greater here!
Dec 9 20:00:00 11m 00s Peeping Screen Best entry so far! Genius concept!
Dec 9 20:05:00 5m 00s 7 Days of War The style was very enjoyable, but I think it would have been less frustrating with health instead of instant death.
Dec 9 20:07:00 2m 00s Boobs Of War If only there were more boobs, otherwise awesome!
Dec 9 20:17:00 10m 00s The Fast and the Flatulent The mouse look thing really did it for me, I loved it, very immersive!
Dec 9 20:32:00 15m 00s SLY SHORT-SIGHTED SNOWMEN I was enjoying it until I kept colliding with the presents and my sprint wasn't working :(
Dec 9 20:43:00 11m 00s Frankfurt Ludum Dare Venue - Keeper Really really nice audio, the music is great
Dec 9 20:48:00 5m 00s Ferchault's Island The music and sound design were top notch! Looks great too
Dec 9 20:58:00 10m 00s Super Dynamite Fighter It hooked me in! I sat and played a for a little while, took me a minute to get adjusted but once I got the hang of it, it was very fun.
Dec 9 21:04:00 6m 00s Nanaina I was unsure about what I was supposed to be doing, but I like how the level changes, very cool mechanic
Dec 9 21:20:00 16m 00s Rubble Cool mechanic! Controls felt a bit wonky but the level design was cool, especially later on
Dec 9 21:29:00 9m 00s GTFO Nice looking game, aside from a few collider issues and shooting bugs, this was an enjoyable game to play. Nice one :)
Dec 9 21:54:00 25m 00s Strikethrough Awesome game! It felt pretty sweet kicking those droids into each other and smashing them against the screen border. Great job!
Dec 9 22:07:00 13m 00s Spong Trouble Simple mechanic that works well with some interesting additional features. Nice little 2 player game - great work :D
Dec 9 22:12:00 5m 00s CSplatterX An interesting design, though I found that upon hitting an enemy while jumping I would be propelled into the air (off screen) for periods of up to a minute! <br/> <br/>Good effort, thanks for sharing.
Dec 9 22:20:00 8m 00s Galactyc Budget Flights Quite amusing storyline, doesn't everyone hate space spam? :D <br/>Clear HUD with easy to pick up controls. Solid game, great job :)
Dec 9 22:26:00 6m 00s Contact Cowboy Not a bad multiplayer mechanic. Would love to see a bigger level or multiple stages.
Dec 9 22:35:00 9m 00s Open Market Interesting idea, but didn't seem too clear on what you had to do exactly. Tried pressing space on characters with speech bubbles, but there was no obvious indicator as to whether this did anything.
Dec 9 23:03:00 28m 00s Teeny Tiny Little Ball At first it was a bit slow, but then I was charmed, fantastic game! If only it was longer. :(
Dec 9 23:09:00 6m 00s Quirky Roadblock Great concept, nicely implemented. Wish there were more levels! :D
Dec 9 23:14:00 5m 00s Vampire Snowmen Invaders Great take on a classic and well executed. <br/>I like the 'boss' style waves along with the presents that give you buffs. Nice!
Dec 9 23:17:00 3m 00s Get to OE-314 Looks like a nice start! Keep it up &amp; we look forward to seeing the finished version on GameJolt :)
Dec 9 23:20:00 3m 00s KEYBOARD WARS: SUPER SNOWMAN TUG-O-WAR EDITION Simple concept, nicely implemented. Love the faces on game over :')
Dec 9 23:25:00 5m 00s Snowman Stacker Really impressive for so little time spent creating the game - great work!
Dec 9 23:32:00 7m 00s Tag The multiplayer Nice looking tile based game. <br/> <br/>Unfortunately it's not clear on the controls, WASD moves the player that is 'it' - but how does player two move? <br/>Also when trying to tag a player it does not seem to do anything, you just run straight through. <br/> <br/>Still looks great nevertheless.
Dec 9 23:43:00 11m 00s -CHAMBER- Neat concept! <br/> <br/>Found it kinda hard to push any blocks up to match, spent most of the time dodging those falling blocks!
Dec 9 23:50:00 7m 00s LD31:The Elements vs Snowmen Just seems to load the default unity skybox with nothing else on screen?
Dec 9 23:51:00 1m 00s Bah! Humbug! Not found :(
Dec 10 00:01:00 10m 00s Noel's Christmas Nightmare Didn't seem to work the first time I loaded, no messages appeared after trying to interact with all the objects. After a reload messages appeared OK (though interacted with objects in a different order). <br/> <br/>Nice concept.
Dec 10 00:04:00 3m 00s Christmas Doodles Nice entry - liking the style. <br/>Seems to be a bit of an issue with spacebar detection, doesn't always jump when pressed :(
Dec 10 00:10:00 6m 00s Wizard Bounce No dungeon can hold me, for I am a wizard! <br/> <br/>Interesting game concept, fits the theme perfectly. Nice and original too. <br/> <br/>Great work.
Dec 10 00:13:00 3m 00s Clear Screen Fun game. Impressive for a solo entry - great work!
Dec 10 00:16:00 3m 00s Bunnies! Snowman option made me laugh :p Having an issue with the falling snowflakes overlay but apart from that a good submission :)
Dec 10 00:19:00 3m 00s Monster Buster A wild slime appeared! <br/> <br/>Neat game - not keen on the block by block movement but it fits the turn based style :) <br/> <br/>Good work!
Dec 10 09:26:00 9h 07m The Cop Who Killed Batman Haha, love the writing and art. I put Batman in a chokehold :D Very cool entry!
Dec 10 19:21:00 9h 55m Lil Dungeon Wizard Enjoyed playing this one - nice job!
Dec 10 20:13:00 52m 00s DontSurrender Cool concept! Graphics are nice too! Explosions look cool
Dec 10 20:18:00 5m 00s Gnome's Dungeon The ladder mechanic is really cool! Nice game, well done
Dec 10 22:22:00 2h 04m Bot War Pretty cool idea! Was a little confusing at first but once I got the hang of it, it was fun
Dec 10 23:16:00 54m 00s Spike Jumper The level transitions are cool and the levels are really well designed! Well done :D
Dec 10 23:59:00 43m 00s Squishi Overall really nice game, levels were well designed and that transition was awesome
Dec 11 00:51:00 52m 00s birdsong Wow. This is one of, if not the, best compo games I've played this LD. <br/> <br/>Great take on the theme; Simple, easy to pick up character controls; Great looking retro art style; Great level design and quite a decent size area to explore! The higher jump unlock mechanic that allows you to reach new parts of the level is a great addition too. <br/> <br/>Great job on this - aren't 2D platformers awesome?
Dec 11 01:02:00 11m 00s Snamwons Revenge Great concept, really love how hard this gets! Good job, nice simple game but delivers well.
Dec 11 01:38:00 36m 00s A Place in Space Great concept, perfectly executed. Awesome compo entry! Soundtrack adds a nice touch.
Dec 11 13:30:00 11h 52m Tightrope Theatre Great entry :)
Dec 11 21:59:00 8h 29m Old Game on an Old Screen Neat little game! I like the concept of being a player playing a game on another screen :D <br/> <br/>Would have been a bit easier/cooler if the player position locked (perhaps if he sat down?) <br/> <br/>Good job! :)
Dec 12 01:19:00 3h 20m Of Carrots And Blood Great little game. Animations are good, audio is nice &amp; the game concept is great fun. <br/> <br/>I think ammo or cooldowns would have been a good idea. Finally stopped after 420 kills when I realised there wasn't a win condition haha :)
Dec 12 01:55:00 36m 00s Flailing Arm Ninja vs Pirates! Awesome game! Really like this entry :)
Dec 12 19:53:00 17h 58m SnowCard Interesting concept, good effort for a solo entry. Nice job.
Dec 13 16:50:00 20h 57m Final Swap Sweet graphics! :D
Dec 13 18:06:00 1h 16m Arkan'em Up Not bad, got pretty competitive near the end! <br/>Good job!
Dec 13 18:20:00 14m 00s Legend Of Single Screen Quite enjoyable, for a game about chatting. <br/>Very humorous!
Dec 14 01:51:00 7h 31m fisheyeroids Interesting concept, I like the fisheye effect! Indeed it does seem quite a challenge but a good entry nonetheless. <br/> <br/>PS; Just a note that the embedded game seems to lag this LD page out after about 30 seconds. Probably due to continuous spawning of enemies: http://ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/woah.png
Dec 14 02:02:00 11m 00s Hands Race Well made game, simple art style, educational + fun! <br/> <br/>I agree some signs can be hard to read but overall still great!
Dec 14 02:06:00 4m 00s Claustrophobia Great concept, graphics, lighting and overall gameplay. Good job on the engine!
Dec 14 02:09:00 3m 00s Fluidity Sweet compo entry - damn those enemies can shoot straight! :D
Dec 14 02:16:00 7m 00s Take out the Trash in Space Loved "You are humanity's last hope probably!" - hilarious! Great little tetris game, first time I've moved along the vertical axis on this style of game :D Great little compo entry - good job!
Dec 14 02:21:00 5m 00s Fizz-X Music is sweet! Graphics are great! Really good job on this one dude - look forward to seeing a full release :D
Dec 14 02:22:00 1m 00s HYPERPLASM Particle effects and music on this game makes it great fun to play!
Dec 14 02:31:00 9m 00s Guard Screen Neat little game - hard to keep my eye on everything but that's part of the challenge! Good job :)
Dec 15 23:01:00 44h 30m Kuch Bhi ! Slightly confusing at first but soon after it was pretty awesome! good job :)
Dec 15 23:07:00 6m 00s Mountain Life Woah. First game I've ever seen in PowerPoint... Good job man, good job.
Dec 15 23:26:00 19m 00s LD scan Lovely game, fun to play - think you should make this into a full game :p
Dec 15 23:27:00 1m 00s Flicker Funner than I thought it would be! Great job :D
Dec 16 00:21:00 54m 00s It's SnowMazing!!! It's snowtacular!
Dec 16 01:19:00 58m 00s PigeonReproducer2000 Interesting entry. I picked a white bird every time but it seemed to go back a step and even went full brown at one point! After about 8 white birds it finally spawned a white one :)
Dec 16 01:20:00 1m 00s Planetary Body Shooter Nice low poly asteroids!
Dec 16 01:24:00 4m 00s Apocalypse Screen Super sensitive mouse controls, how did you deal with that while testing? :O Cool robot countdown, though unfortunately it doesn't stop until the end of the shoot animation, meaning last minute presses are of no use :P
Dec 16 01:26:00 2m 00s Ocean Crossing Awesome game - it was fun! :D
Dec 16 01:30:00 4m 00s Jump to Boom x 2 Slightly confusing as they sometimes bounce off the cars? Other than that pretty fun and kewl graphics - nice! :D
Dec 17 20:32:00 43h 02m Drop Pretty cool idea with the main mechanic, was a little hard to predict but that's part of the game :p good job!
Dec 17 20:39:00 7m 00s THE ONE SCREEN Pretty good entry! I liked the funny comments on each level, nice work!
Dec 17 20:45:00 6m 00s Tobias is Running Alone Nice job on the story, energy regen felt a little slow, other than that, good job!
Dec 17 20:58:00 13m 00s Valhalla Excellent all round game, really satisfying once I got the hang of it :D
Dec 17 21:08:00 10m 00s Sentinel Graphics are very nice, was a little tiring :p
