Aug 23 18:37:00 Attack of the Lobizarudo I loved the intro, and the voiceover... And the graphics filter and everything just set the mood really well. The music is...strange, but so is the gameplay. And yet, in spite of the strangeness, this little one-button game has a decent amount of replayability. It was much harder than I expected since it's entirely possible to get a lot of one color in a row and get to big and/or small if you don't actively switch colors. Good stuff.
Aug 24 02:19:00 7h 42m BECOME I loved playing as the snail thing, even though it can't jump normally. The way you can use your momentum from climbing things to jump instead is addicting.
Aug 24 02:27:00 8m 00s Zombie Rush There isn't that much to learn in this one but the resulting mechanics are pretty interesting, mostly because a lot of it happens without you. Stray zombies can still convert people, so there is a tactical advantage in not making every single zombie follow you. There are plenty of other games about zombies, but this one still manages to be somewhat unique and entertaining. <br/> <br/>The down side? The sound effects tend to pile up on top of each other enough to drown out the music and they're really annoying.
Aug 24 02:31:00 4m 00s Dis-o-rder I love that you recorded your own narrations. If only the story weren't so predictable... Of course, it would have been more surprising if I didn't already know the theme was "You are the monster". The twist ending would still have been better, though, if it were a little more dramatic than a single sentence of text. Overall, though, the story was fairly evocative and there was quite a bit of tension as you decide wether to incarcerate people even when you have almost no evidence.
Aug 24 02:56:00 25m 00s Blop Avanger This game is far too long. I got the controls working, but I don't like the shop. It's artificial difficulty and the gameplay isn't fun enough to make me want to grind for experience. I gave up when I reached the first 2-blocks-high jump and I was sick of restarting the level over and over.
Aug 24 15:28:00 12h 32m Pinky The Monster You definitely got the feeling of panic across, and the foolish humans are basically destroying their own city as you scramble around avoiding bombs. It's both cute and fun. It's also simple which is good for Ludum Dare.
Aug 24 15:37:00 9m 00s GameApi world It's basically a demo of the 3D graphics but it looks pretty interesting, the lighting and reflections are impressive anyway.
Aug 24 18:35:00 2h 58m Eggplant Escape It's pretty fun and has clean graphics. It's also fairly hard, but luckily there are plenty of respawn checkpoints. <br/> <br/>The music loop is reeeally short.
Aug 24 22:25:00 3h 50m School Adventure: Neighbourhood bully I'll admit It's pretty infuriating if you're going for a high-score, and the sound effects got on my nerves, but it's a good job for a 2-day game in javascript.
Aug 24 22:55:00 30m 00s Space Drug Lord This game is hard. <br/> <br/>The low-oxygen effect is way cool. <br/> <br/>It would probably be easier to win if I just let most of the fires burn, though. This means that in this game you play as a drug lord in space who doesn't really care if his employees are in horribley dangerous work conditions. I think it fits the theme.
Aug 24 23:20:00 25m 00s The Mighty Borscht I tried it four or five times. I got kills, but not a single ammo-drop, so I always ran out of bullets. Needless to say I didn't get far.
Aug 24 23:31:00 11m 00s Huntingman Championship I saw naught but a blank, black screen.
Aug 24 23:57:00 26m 00s stacktrace Couldn't un-zip the zip file. But I am on a Mac. :/
Aug 25 02:29:00 2h 32m Goblins! The web page says "This developer has not uploaded a game yet..." <br/>•n•
Aug 25 03:41:00 1h 12m MANDATORY FUN EXPERIENCE I too was confused but there is something to be said for a game that can get the idea across without needing a lot of explanation. That said, I sort of wish there was a little more depth to the strategy. Once I had a manor or two I basically alternated between "Charm" and the weird spell that lures people to you, to keep them from destroying my buildings until I had enough... number to build a monster condo.
Aug 25 04:02:00 21m 00s mail-monster 99:97 <br/>When I realized there was a jump button it became waaay more fun! :D stomp stomp stomp <br/>Sometimes I couldn't control where I was going though, or I would only jump a little and I didn't know why. <br/>Good game though very cute.
Aug 25 15:52:00 11h 50m Power Lich I didn't find it incredibly challenging, but this was mostly because I figured out that you can lure individual guards away from the others and pick them off one by one, so I had lots of skeleltons by the end. I still enjoyed it, though. <br/> <br/>It took me a bit to figure out that you can order skeletons to attack but when I did it got way more fun. <br/> <br/>The low poly art is pretty cool.
Aug 25 16:07:00 15m 00s Monster Creator Had to plug in the larger keyboard that has 2 control keys just to play it, but it was amusing. It's difficult when you have to look at the keyboard and move your hands to reach all the controls, though. xD
Aug 25 18:17:00 2h 10m Neighbourhood Rampage First thing I saw was a rogue lawnmower crashing in the road and then I ran around and I was so scary that people killed themselves trying to get away and I smashed fences and things. Hilarious. Not very long, but hilarious.
Aug 25 19:34:00 1h 17m The Ancient Immortal I got in a situation where all the humans seemed to be spawning in one or two rows for a while and there were enough humans built up in row #2, from different time periods might I add, that I could not make anything last in that row long enough to kill them all. I tried repeatedly making the carapace and saving up to build lots of towers but nothing worked. That's how I lost. <br/> <br/>The lag is most noticeable when I'm in the selection menu, which is quite bad. <br/> <br/>But hey, it really is impressive what you've done here regardless. I like that you parodied Plants VS. Zombies. Please keep working on the balance and whatnot, it's a neat little game.
Aug 25 21:04:00 1h 30m We Missed You! Hands down the funniest entry I've seen yet. It really does feel like the postman does this stuff on purpose sometimes. I don't know about randomly ramming into peoples' cars, though. xD
Aug 25 21:05:00 1m 00s Y U so Serious ? Gah, I wish I could run it on my Mac it sounds great.
Aug 25 21:26:00 21m 00s Climb Monster Climb! The music was bad but those voices were fun. It gets hard surprisingly fast! I got about 30,000 after a few tries. I love all the Frankenstein jokes. Good stuff.
Aug 25 21:39:00 13m 00s Monstris Pretty cool, like the Blokus board game but with triangular divisions.
Aug 26 14:48:00 17h 09m Passengers I saw the articles about the game; It's really well done. It actually reminds me of "Papers, Please", but with a more direct connection to real world issues. The money can affect how you see the passengers. Like, I could take lots of people to be sure I make a profit but it's dangerous to be overcrowded and some of them will probably die. Who do I turn down? Do I accept someone who looks like a liability if they offer me lots of money? It's painful, and it gets the point across. 5/5, would not play again.
Aug 26 15:06:00 18m 00s Lux Sorry man, I gave it maybe fifteen minutes and it didn't load. I think something IS wrong.
Aug 26 16:42:00 1h 36m Scabs I love the friggin' story behind this game, that is the most badass hobo on the planet. And also the only hobo... The mood of this game is great and I would love to see it rebuilt as a larger game. You could totally elaborate on the story and make the main character real interesting. What did he see, through his bloodshot eyes, when he got outside the wall? WHAT DID HE SEE? <br/> <br/>The death was totally stupid and of course I laughed out loud. <br/> <br/>PPPPPPPPBBBBLT~PP--BBT*•,;=
Aug 26 17:27:00 45m 00s Fully Furnished I think I agree with Cory's review here. The game is somewhat RNG driven and doesn't have a lot of depth, but the story is good. <br/> <br/>The ending was really cute. It was kind of a twist to get to see an ending that wasn't really dark, there are a lot of creepy games in this particular game jam. haha.
Aug 26 17:56:00 29m 00s PSYCHOSHARK Woooow there's actually a lot of goofy stuff in this game for you to find. BRING ME ICE CREAM, SLAVE!!
Aug 26 23:14:00 5h 18m Delicious Ships! This is your first game? That's pretty damn cool. I always enjoy learning the mechanics of puzzles like this, and you could absolutely make more levels for it. Well done.
Aug 27 00:17:00 1h 03m Nice Monster This is great. Level 2 is the hardest, so it was a tad disappointing to see the game ends after Level 3. Still, it's a good idea and it fits the PICO-8 format really well.
Aug 4 00:10:00 8231h 53m Sir Pantless I killed the hero and it was surprisingly difficult and fun.
