| Dec 14 23:41:00 | Docker life simulator 2015 | This is one of those games which is a simple concept and easy to pick up, but you can actually get a lot of mileage out of it. Some people have commented that it's short or gets old quickly, but I found that because of the quirky physics, it allowed for emergent strategies (such as making use of slipped boxes to form a larger base for your structure), which gave it good replayability. The swinging chain was a really nice touch. Good job! | |
| Dec 15 14:26:00 | 14h 45m | Tree of Life | Very nice atmospheric game - clever use of poems for puzzle-solving, lovely mood. Would have been enhanced by some audio, but hard to do this within the time frame. Nice art as well. Good job! |
| Dec 15 19:18:00 | 4h 52m | CICP : the Center for Interplanetary Pest Control | Wow the graphics hit you and you go woah that's cool! Music carries the mood, it wasn't quite clear what was happening but got it in the end. Well done great job! |
| Dec 15 19:21:00 | 3m 00s | noa noa | Horray. Very cool! Love the expressions. |
| Dec 15 19:25:00 | 4m 00s | Squirrel Forest | Like the concept but lost on the game play. |
| Dec 15 19:32:00 | 7m 00s | Don't Stop Drilling | Really fun! music good. Well done! |
| Dec 15 19:50:00 | 18m 00s | Kubble | Hey hey! Fun little game simple but challenging. I also couldn't solve the first puzzle! |
| Dec 15 20:02:00 | 12m 00s | Wizard and The Sun | YAY! This is great! Really innovative use of jumping puzzles and the teleport staff. Reminded me of VVVVV. Great job. |
| Dec 15 20:08:00 | 6m 00s | Two Button Detective or a Story about Stolen Diamond | Great mood. Like the figures and the scene. |
| Dec 15 20:15:00 | 7m 00s | Son | Liked the mood and colours of this also always like a game that lets you double jump! |
| Dec 15 20:23:00 | 8m 00s | Super Mower | Fun little game! Steering frustratingly wide lol. Like the monster plant too. |
| Dec 15 20:30:00 | 7m 00s | Canoe A-Go-Go: The Saga of Johmemy | I love it!! boat times |
| Dec 15 20:37:00 | 7m 00s | A Striangle Journey | Really hard and fun! Liked the power up to square to wall jump! Really quick movements. Weeeee. |
| Dec 15 20:46:00 | 9m 00s | Jeff is having issues controlling his appetite | Well you win for graphics my friend! Great humour: it made me laugh. I can see this will be amazing when you finish it. lease finish it :) |
| Dec 16 19:52:00 | 23h 06m | Space Mitosis | Ahh I think this was a really lovely concept. The music is gentle and I love the way if you do nothing it zooms out and slowly fades out. Nice sense of scale and atmosphere! |
| Dec 16 20:00:00 | 8m 00s | Destructive Power | Oh yeah top score 2710! Thought this was really clever concept and strangely satisfying. Simple audio and video but really fun! Well done. |
| Dec 16 20:08:00 | 8m 00s | FloppySnake | I am glad you didnt make this too hard because its quite mesmeric and peaceful :). The graphics are great I love the waviness of the er....worms top and bottom and the light worm flows excellently. Found it frustratingly touching the light orbs but not collecting them conversely that made the spikes hard to hit so not so. Also though it was clever that you dont die as such just go back to zero. Much more satisfying. Nice one! |
| Dec 16 20:16:00 | 8m 00s | MotherCube (strategic puzzle) | The graphics were well executed on this one. Found the controls a but frustrating and the levels a bit too long. The dynamic of having several players to help each other is very clever though. Feed the mother cube :) |
| Dec 16 20:26:00 | 10m 00s | Aggravation Cubes | Hilarious little game. I thought you got the dynamic of hitting things with your ball to kill them really right. Its soooo hard and frustrating! Enemy background was hilariously detailed for the amount of graphics detail. Reminded me of games on the Atari 2600 ahhh memories. |
| Dec 16 20:31:00 | 5m 00s | Cave Adventure | Aww game stopped loading right near the end of the progress bar! It looks really fun tho sorry I tried :( |
| Dec 16 20:35:00 | 4m 00s | There's Always a Bigger... | Kinda like a flappy birds Osmos/Agar.io mix! Found it quite fun. Well done! |
| Dec 16 20:42:00 | 7m 00s | Growth Control | Wow very clever design. Took me a while to work out what was going on. |
| Dec 16 20:59:00 | 17m 00s | V BALL | Fun addictive and frustrating. Dynamic of floating up automatically when you move was very smart and the graphics are simple but nice and softly rendered. |
| Dec 16 21:10:00 | 11m 00s | Speed Sid | Wow character logo and background designs are beautiful. Lovely theme tune. Great take on the theme. Reminded me of bit trip runner. |
| Dec 16 21:17:00 | 7m 00s | GrowSeedPinball | Brilliantly done. Reminded me of playing on the game boy. Im so glad you didnt make it too hard. So many pinball games you just lose your ball over and over and dont get the satisfaction of hitting things. Cute graphics and nice beebs and boops. Thanks! |
| Dec 16 21:22:00 | 5m 00s | Recnac | Nice combo of puzzle platformer with a kind of Osmos/Agar.io dynamics to dissolve things smaller than you very innovative. Well done! |
| Dec 16 21:32:00 | 10m 00s | BigFish | Simple game. I like the eat the things smaller than you to grow bigger concept. You made it so that the ones bigger than you suddenly appear right next to you! haha thanks! |
| Dec 16 21:40:00 | 8m 00s | Dizzy Skies | I tried to play this but it comes up with some error about running from file://// not working until you upload for security reasons. I tried Im sorry! |
| Dec 16 21:46:00 | 6m 00s | Belly Smash | Hilarious and fun. Great graphics and fun concept. A complete game of this quality in 72 hours wow! |
| Dec 16 21:57:00 | 11m 00s | Bacterial | Osmos fan here. You got the music and the game play down great! |
| Dec 16 22:07:00 | 10m 00s | Ultra CopyCat Force | I really enjoyed this. Showing my age but I like galaga clones and this is the first one i've played this year in the compo :). Nice and simple a few varied power ups, not too hard, nice last resort with the boomerang thing and throwing/taking the P out of them :) lol. Decent tune. Thanks! |
| Dec 16 22:33:00 | 26m 00s | Astrocats : Supernova Alert | This was hilarious from the get go. Animation and sound at the start are brilliant! Meow! Sense of threat constantly and infuriatingly those damned asteroids seem to get more accurate as your ship repairs. Cunning. Managed it in the end 72.17! Well done :) |
| Dec 16 22:47:00 | 14m 00s | Bouncing Bounces | Used the constraint of two buttons superbly. Very satisfying gameplay jumping and explosions! Brilliant. |
| Dec 16 22:55:00 | 8m 00s | Kill the Christmas Trees | I killed all those trees. Ha ha he got his comeuppance tho! Tree killing noise hurt my ears a bit. |
| Dec 17 21:20:00 | 22h 25m | Infinity Monkey Autocorrect | Very original concept, well-executed. Audio and visuals were lovely, with nice little details such as the poop on the keyboard. A neat interactive experience! |
| Dec 17 21:27:00 | 7m 00s | Button Quest | Found this on Gamejolt before I realised it was a Ludum Dare game, came here to rate it. Will copy and paste the comment I left on Gamejolt: <br/> <br/>'This was actually... pretty awesome. Really fun and simple mechanics, well-excecuted, nice ideas all round including the spell selection system and the retention of power-ups.' <br/> <br/>I do agree with the comments that have pointed out that the healing spell is overpowered - but I don't fault the game for that given that it's v hard to balance everything perfectly within the time available. Would definitely like to see this game developed more! |
| Dec 17 21:46:00 | 19m 00s | AB race | Simple and effective, gameplay very similar to my own entry, except you've made it multiplayer! :) Nice use of both themes. |
| Dec 17 22:08:00 | 22m 00s | Crab Quest | Hey there the crab drawing is good the textures were good too crab controls worked fine. Never played a LD game on unreal engine before. Innovative the engine. Crab moved a bit too slow and download was way too large. |
| Dec 17 22:22:00 | 14m 00s | Safe or Sorry | Graphics were lovely! I liked the foreboding atmosphere and found the monster genuinely terrifying. The sound of the monster added to the terror. Concept was good too. |
| Dec 17 22:25:00 | 3m 00s | Snake Growth | UGG! Sorry I tried to play but System Error says Missing MSVP12D.dll! |
| Dec 17 22:52:00 | 27m 00s | SUPER SCIENCE CORP | Brilliant gaming experience! Reminded me of Alien Breed :P Really balanced difficulty. Required strategic cannon firing and strafing . Liked the upgrades. Liked the funny guy on the tannoy. Just really good work well done! |
| Dec 17 23:00:00 | 8m 00s | FightCube | Nice little shoot at each other game. Clever to make the tank fire when you turn then no need for extra keys! |
| Dec 17 23:07:00 | 7m 00s | Shaving Day : The Shave After Tomorrow | Haha laughed at this so much. This is hilarious little game of sorts. Strangely satisfying. Added hilarity that beard starts to grow on forehead if you are not fast enough :P Good job! |
| Dec 18 10:02:00 | 10h 55m | All Ways Down | This wins it for innovation for me great puzzle idea and great use of game dynamic to create challenges. With the music a nice mellow experience. Well done for sticking strictly to two buttons! |
| Dec 18 10:49:00 | 47m 00s | Rollin Lemmin | Aww man couldnt play. I got a Javascript error in Chrome and FF :( Sorry I tried. |
| Dec 18 11:33:00 | 44m 00s | Speyer74 | Nice little story. Interesting style on the character animation. Music was good! I like games that are more story driven than shooting stuff. There is potential here to do more puzzles with the grow shrink dynamic. |
| Dec 18 11:44:00 | 11m 00s | Insight | I think you created a really nice atmosphere here. Peacefully attending to plants and helping them grow. Graphics were nice kinda reminded me of proteus and I like the way things sway in the breeze. A nice little scene. Cheers! |
| Dec 18 12:25:00 | 41m 00s | Growing Ties | Um...WOW! Brilliant idea, excellently executed. This was fun, simple, addictive, funny and innovative. Jolly well done! |
| Dec 18 12:28:00 | 3m 00s | The Super Bros (that are not Brothers!) | Very clever of you to have two that you need to progress. Simple puzzle platformer true to the button theme. Found the running animation quite hilarious. |
| Dec 18 12:48:00 | 20m 00s | Combat Hell | This was really fun and addictive. Shotgun upgrade was harder to use than machine gun tho! I thought you got the graphics and movement just right. Very nostalgic feel especially the low-bit noises and music. Well done. |
| Dec 18 12:57:00 | 9m 00s | Beardgrow | Hello fellow beard game maker! I loved your game. Simple but great graphics. Liked the back story. Good use of humur, true to both themes and clever use of limited controls. Nostalgic game play and quite innovative that you take the items back to your room to progress also found it quite addictive. Cheers! |
| Dec 18 15:14:00 | 2h 17m | spin-circle | Really expertly done. Simple game but addictive and satisfying. True to the two button theme. Great job. |
| Dec 27 19:09:00 | 219h 55m | Rolla Grolla Arena | Nice use of both themes! Well done on creating a two-player game. Graphics were a bit simple but I liked the cool particle effects :) |
| Dec 28 10:46:00 | 15h 37m | Sprout | This is a very good exploration platormer that reminds me of games from the Knitt series. The upgrade dynamic, mini map, graphics you achieved a lot in a short time! Id love to see what else you can do with more time! |
| Dec 28 10:58:00 | 12m 00s | Organ-izer | This is so clever! I love the ideas of the body getting older and being in the stomach! Music is "silly" but is appropriate for the style and idea you chose and has a sense of humour about it. Well done for sticking to the two buttons. The wonky bone movement is a bit infuriating but adds an element of hilarity and skill. I wanted to save all the things but I couldn't! Well done! |
| Dec 28 11:04:00 | 6m 00s | Go, Go, Radzilla! | Haha amazing. Well done on the graphics! The glow is gorgeous and everything is animated brilliantly. The game dynamic was satisfying and simple. You managed to do a lot with two buttons as well. Really fun. Nice work. |
| Dec 28 11:09:00 | 5m 00s | Radical Revolver Recoil Rampage | I am glad I got to play your game! Its really innovative. Simple and addictive. The graphics and movement give it a sense of humour. You stuck to the two button theme really well and did a lot with it. Its rock hard so a ramp up in skill would have been appreciated :) Well done! |
| Dec 28 11:22:00 | 13m 00s | From Sprout to Splendor | Really relaxing. Beautiful graphics soothing music and innovative gameplay dynamic. Was frustrated at first because I didn't know ants would defend against caterpillars and kept dying :P. Felt the gameplay was really rewarding and appreciated you made this a 10 minute playable concept that gave me the satisfaction of winning :) |
| Dec 28 11:33:00 | 11m 00s | Ourobos | Woah how did you do so much in such a short time? I love exploratory platformers and this really kept me hooked! Really great retro feel. Atmospheric graphics and music that changes with zones. The map and the log entries were nice additions. Not sure you stuck to any themes (arrow keys are buttons too you know :P) but its brilliant! |
| Dec 28 12:43:00 | 1h 10m | Partners in Crime | Wow this was amazing! I cant believe you created something of this quality is such a small time. Great use of multiple challenges at a time even with 2 buttons! The audio and visuals add to the humour. Really nice work. Very well done! |
| Dec 28 12:50:00 | 7m 00s | No Birds In This Game | You really stuck to the two button challenge well: top marks for that! Great idea to do puzzles with this control system. Overal nice idea and odd sense of humour :P |
| Dec 28 12:56:00 | 6m 00s | 4mula Fun | Split screen racing in 72 hours waaaahhht? Seriously great work for the challenge. Graphics are good. I like that the screens that are not in use are cameras on the action. The controls are good (some racers make it too hard and you hit things all the time). Great work! |
| Dec 28 13:01:00 | 5m 00s | PATRYOSHKA | I really liked this concept. I like the idea of collecting bits of a ship in space to get bigger and bigger and the asteroids added an element of challenge. Well done for sticking to the themes and wrapping it up into a game with an ending in time for the competition! |
| Jan 1 20:24:00 | 103h 23m | Stricken Chicken | Good sense of humour. I like that they grow till they explode. It was fun and silly. Well done :) |
| Jan 1 21:17:00 | 53m 00s | DESEEDER | Pumpin tune! Fun addictive play. Looks pretty with very few pixels. Well done for stick to two button theme too! |
| Jan 1 22:47:00 | 1h 30m | From the Deep | What an amazingly cool idea! This is like no other platformer I have played. You successfully stayed within the two button and growing themes and the limit on controls The scale and the peaceful birds flying across add to the mood. The graphics are simple but within the time I think you did great well done :) |
| Jan 1 23:05:00 | 18m 00s | CELL - Φ | mmm smooth music. Interesting take on the theme (of growing I guess). Nice to slow down the pace from all the shooters! |
| Jan 1 23:38:00 | 33m 00s | The amazingly clunky 2-button platformer! | You totally delivered on the title! Actually I found it quite clever how there is the puzzle element due to he limitation of the controls. very Frustrating and very clunky. Good sense of humour. Nice work. |
| Jan 1 23:45:00 | 7m 00s | Dem Alein Gaem | Great graphics, Nice animation. Like the dynamic of avoiding things in a kind of lab environment. You used both themes! I think this is the first game I have played where you do grow but you have to avoid it or you die. Nice work for the compo! |
| Jan 2 01:28:00 | 1h 43m | Hammer Time | Innovative use of two mouse buttons. Liked the boomerang affect on the hammer. Had to get timing just right to hit the targets and avoid hitting things so nice multitasking challenge. Good work. |
| Jan 2 14:10:00 | 12h 42m | The Artifact | I was very impressed with this. I like the transition to the sphere where the buttons appear, the limited buttons used to make kind of puzzles (that were not too frustrating) and the upgrade element is really satisfying. The exploration element is great too. The ball hits things with an awesome shake and sound. The music gives a sense of awe and mystery. Overall I think its great! Well done. |
| Jan 2 14:19:00 | 9m 00s | Christmas Eve Late Delivery Service | Good take of two button theme. Fun concept and a sense of humour with all the audio samples. Well done! |
| Jan 2 14:29:00 | 10m 00s | Grow to the Moon | This was hilarious. I had tears in my eyes at the end. It didn't need to be long its brilliant. I guess the only thing I would have liked was points at the end. Anyway well done! |
| Jan 2 14:51:00 | 22m 00s | Hero's War | Nice shooter. Mashed my mouse buttons like a maniac and got up into the hundreds but it seemed to stop getting much harder after a while. Nice job on an interesting concept for the challenge! |
| Jan 2 15:00:00 | 9m 00s | Bad Doggie | Great cartoony graphics and its the right choice of music to go with it. You stuck well to two buttons too. Its a nice way to do an endless running game. Nice work. |
| Jan 2 15:11:00 | 11m 00s | Grow | The concept is really clever. Just a few negatives. The control over the character is really frustrating. The music was good but creates a really negative atmosphere that didnt go with the very nice cartoony graphics so the mood was a bit confusing. Overall though nice take on the theme. Well done. |
| Jan 2 15:16:00 | 5m 00s | Grow Big and Go Home | Hehe I liked this it reminded me of games on the c64. I liked the upgrades and the simple addictive gameplay. Nice job! |
| Jan 2 15:26:00 | 10m 00s | Stickman Sam in the High Fly Sky | Simple and quite fun you got the dynamic between keeping flying and avoiding birds going well. Argh it was really hard to collect the powerups though :) |
| Jan 4 21:14:00 | 53h 48m | Chicken Spin | Haha very cute. The tweet sound is very funny lovely movement. |
| Jan 4 21:20:00 | 6m 00s | Snow n' Grow | Was really relaxing watching the snow fall. Worked out you can periodically get rid of a bit of snow and jump not sure what else there was. Cute graphics. Nice. |
| Jan 4 21:52:00 | 32m 00s | supesuatakku | Quite scary! Tried to run but the bullets didn't work from far away so had to charge. Killed a few then got killed nice work for the compo. |
| Jan 4 22:01:00 | 9m 00s | Cipolletti | Fun once I got the hang of the controls. Great graphics :) |
| Jan 4 22:05:00 | 4m 00s | We used to be Neighbours | Interesting concept. Over complex rules which take away from the fun. Great music! |
| Jan 4 22:45:00 | 40m 00s | Defuse Run | The graphics of the car and track are really good. I imagine with more time this would be a really good looking game. The dynamics of the car made it hard to control but it was fun going round the loops and finding the boxes. Kinda reminded me of quarantine a bit. Well done! |
| Jan 4 23:02:00 | 17m 00s | FETA FELES | Retrotastic! Reminded me of good ol' c64 classics! decent move around and shootemup. Was really hard not sure the theme came across because I couldnt get very far! |
| Jan 5 00:15:00 | 1h 13m | Octov | I thought this was really good. The use of special sequences was really clever and a really interesting take on the two button challenge. The graphics are lovely and really set the mood. Well done! |
| Jan 5 00:27:00 | 12m 00s | Chaotic Potato | When the game starts everything is turning and lots of things are happening lol. I loved the sense of scale in a kind of free to explore platform world. I also liked that it didnt take itself to seriously :) Kinda a cross between Hohokum and Supermeat boy and superfrog with a potato thrown in for good measure. Nice work! |
| Jan 5 00:35:00 | 8m 00s | Sam and Mas Two Button Attack Game - MULTIPLAYER ONLY, two people required to play | You took minimal to the maximum level! It is a game and actually has more gameplay dynamic than some other games I have played in this compo :) There is not much to it but interesting concept so nice work |
| Jan 5 00:42:00 | 7m 00s | Dig Runner | Brilliant! Its an excellent idea and nicely executed. The animation of the characters is just great and the gameplay feels satisfying. Its like you are really in an areana fighting for your life: it made me think of Tron actually. Anyway nice entry for the compo! |
| Jan 5 00:48:00 | 6m 00s | Runaway Rob | I found this really satisfying just shoot and jump its simple but addictive! I liked the different graphics too and the retro feel. There wasn't much to it but I like what you did within the time of the compo. Cheers! |
| Jan 5 00:54:00 | 6m 00s | Testing Lab xy | This was really hard! I like that the direction is indicated with the light and I liked the way the box moves smoothly but I could barely see the bullet and kept getting hit. I like the simple and addictive gameplay. Well done! |
| Jan 5 00:59:00 | 5m 00s | Can't Jump | Oh my god this was a brilliant idea and so infuriating. I kept playing through because its quite addictive also the way the character moved made me laugh :). Good work. |
| Jan 5 01:06:00 | 7m 00s | RGB Space | This was really amazing. Such a great idea and gameplay was the right pace to challenge me on my mac touchpad :) Loved the way it slows down when you drag to give you a bit of grace excellent tweak that makes all the difference. Music and graphics set the mood. Really great work. Well done! |
| Jan 5 01:13:00 | 7m 00s | Clouk | I like what you did in the compo time looks very exciting and I hope you keep working on it because the graphics and concept of a platformer with mouse are great. Chicken freezing on death makes me think of sonic when he drowns slightly terrifying :) Well done! |
