|---|---|---|---|
| Apr 18 15:37:00 | Dr. Deckenstein: An Adventure in Severed Parts | Neat little card game with simple mechanics. As someone who doesn't like complicated card games, it was great. The cards seemed a big blurry though. | |
| Apr 18 15:48:00 | 11m 00s | Black Heart | Neat game, I love the art style and the mechanics. I wish I could choose which shape to turn into instead of having to cycle through them. Also, it's sometimes hard to see upcoming obstacles because they're blocked by the players shape. |
| Apr 18 16:16:00 | 28m 00s | H2Olympics | Neat game, I really like the art style, but the music loop is far too short. I'm not sure why the ice state exists as it seemed like there was no reason to switch to it. Also maybe consider speeding things up overtime to make the game more challenging. Well done overall though. |
| Apr 18 16:29:00 | 13m 00s | The Night Shift | I like the music and art style, the cutscenes are story are a nice addition as well. On a keyboard the controls could be a bit tighter though, it's far too easy to accidentally hit balloons. |
| Apr 18 16:33:00 | 4m 00s | Drift Shift | It's a pretty neat little game, and the idea of telling the player's when to shift using shapes is great. Though I did feel that the first level was a bit too hard, it could use a longer time limit or a shortened course. Some audio would have helped this game a great deal as well. Good effort overall though! |
| Apr 18 16:54:00 | 21m 00s | Under and Above | Solid idea, but needs a bit of polish. Reminds me of Spore. |
| Apr 18 17:04:00 | 10m 00s | L.I.G.H.T. | Nice graphics and animation, and neat mechanics with the various shape shifting forms. The music was a bit repetitive though. |
| Apr 18 17:23:00 | 19m 00s | Stretch-Mark! | Neat game, I love the music at the aesthetics. The mechanics are also very interesting. Some more check points would be useful to make it easier to experiment with the shrink/stretch without having to start the level over. |
| Apr 18 17:43:00 | 20m 00s | ShapeInvaders | Great little game, you seem to have executed on your ideas quite well. It's not incredibly originally, but it plays well and is easy to understand. Well done. |
| Apr 18 17:54:00 | 11m 00s | Spaceshape | Neat idea, but it needs work. The input wasn't responsive and sometimes the left and right movement didn't work. Also I shouldn't be able to leave the play space with the pieces. Decent idea overall. |
| Apr 18 18:06:00 | 12m 00s | Blue Moon | Great game, I love the music and the art. There was a bit of hitchiness on my laptop though for some reason. Overall, great effort though. It's quite unique. |
| Apr 18 18:20:00 | 14m 00s | Shiftshapes | Neat game. Not sure exactly how this matches the theme but it could make a decent little typing game. |
| Apr 18 20:00:00 | 1h 40m | SHΔPE | This is fantastically executed. It's a simple idea but it feels great, and plays fantastically. Well done! |
| Apr 18 20:35:00 | 35m 00s | WolfBit | I love the style, it looks and sounds fantastic. The mechanics are a bit strange, but I think they work well. It's great how much you could fit within such a small screen. |
| Apr 19 03:15:00 | 6h 40m | Moonlight | Neat game, I like the graphical style and the transformation to the werewolf by standing in the moonlight was interesting. It'd be great if the attacks had a bit more punch to them though. Nice work! |
| Apr 19 15:51:00 | 12h 36m | Turbo Transform | Awesome game. Super well executed and stylish. It's simple, but you pulled the idea off masterly. Well done! |
| Apr 19 17:51:00 | 2h 00m | Listen and Shift | Fantastic little game, great sound and graphics. |
| Apr 20 02:16:00 | 8h 25m | Combunation | I like the character art and the different abilities. The shark character seems to be the best by far though, so some more balance is required. |
| Apr 20 02:19:00 | 3m 00s | Trionic | I love the art for the main robot, and the music is great as well. The controls feel a bit awkward on the keyboard though. |
| Apr 20 02:22:00 | 3m 00s | Shapeshipster | Great little game, I love the graphics and sound. The concept is interesting as well, it reminds me a bit of Ikaruga. |
| Apr 20 02:25:00 | 3m 00s | ShmupShifter | Great little game, I love the art and the idea of shooting in multiple directions to destroy enemies. It's too bad there's no music though. Also, I think the game would feel better if the basic enemies died more quickly. |
| Apr 20 02:27:00 | 2m 00s | The man that changed into a plant. | Neat idea, even if it's a little rough around the edges. I love the art, but the main robot could use more animation. Also I got to the room with the lasers and the lasers were invisible and the background was blue for some reason. That made it a little tricky. |
| Apr 20 02:30:00 | 3m 00s | Tetrashifter | Neat idea, I really like the graphics and the concept. It feels really strange to control on PC though. Fix the control issues and you may have something compelling here. |
| Apr 20 02:34:00 | 4m 00s | NeoTrap | Great looking game, and a very interesting idea. The first track is a great choice as well to set the mood. I only wish it wasn't as punishing with the 1 hit kill gameplay. |
| Apr 20 02:37:00 | 3m 00s | Will it Shapeshift? | Congratulations on your first Ludum Dare, hopefully you had a great time and plan to do it again in the future. Overall the game was decent for a first-timer, and it was certainly a unique interpretation of the theme. I wish there was just a bit more depth to the game. Keep it up though! |
| Apr 20 02:40:00 | 3m 00s | Plato and the 'Caves | Neat concept and it's always fun to see roguelike games. The controls felt a bit weird though. Overall, great effort. |
| Apr 20 02:46:00 | 6m 00s | Corrupted AI | Interesting puzzles and very unique style, though toning down the effects could help just a little bit. |
| Apr 20 02:48:00 | 2m 00s | jelliskul | Great game, simple and charming with some nice art. You should release a .exe that isn't an installer though. It'd lower the barrier to entry as people are much more likely to run a .exe than have to run an installer. |
| Apr 20 02:52:00 | 4m 00s | Formorph | Neat game and great level design. You did a pretty great job of slowly teaching the player the game mechanics. The only one that confused me a bit was the "wind". |
| Apr 27 22:41:00 | 187h 49m | Exhuman | Neat graphics and interesting concepts. Controls were pretty rough though, and I think it may have looked better with a bit less bloom. |
| Apr 27 22:45:00 | 4m 00s | Oops! My Dear is a Deer | Neat game, I like the graphics and the sound. I just wish there was a little more depth and maybe have the weapon point toward where the player is aiming. Overall, nice work. |
| Apr 27 22:52:00 | 7m 00s | A walk to the top | Neat idea, I think this could be a great game with some improved level design and additional mechanics. I liked the simplicity of the graphics and sound. |
| Apr 27 22:56:00 | 4m 00s | Polymobea: Red And Green | Fine little mini game, and I loved the self-deprecating humor. |
| Apr 27 23:02:00 | 6m 00s | SizeBlock | Neat game, very unique idea for a puzzle game. It would have felt a bit better if you could move by just holding the movement key. |
| Apr 27 23:12:00 | 10m 00s | Operation SHIFT | Great game, I love the look and feel. The screen shake is a little excessive, but it's not that bad. Great work for only having 48 hours. I like that you can't just hold down the shoot button, it feels great. |
| Apr 27 23:18:00 | 6m 00s | Escape from the Dungeon of Snor | Neat looking game, even though I got stuck pretty quickly. |
| Apr 28 21:54:00 | 22h 36m | ShapeGrid | Fantastic game. It's very polished and is a great idea. It's quite simple, but it does what it's designed to do very well. Some audio would have added greatly to the feeling of the game. Nice work! |
| Apr 28 21:56:00 | 2m 00s | Altered Beard | Great art and audio, decent gameplay as well. I think the player should be invisible for a second or two after getting hit. |
| Apr 28 22:00:00 | 4m 00s | The polyman | You move a bit too slow, and the level design and polish could use work. Decent effort though. |
| Apr 28 22:06:00 | 6m 00s | Dustin Finamore | Nice work overall, congratulations to you and your daughter. The music was a bit repetitive, but the idea was pretty decent and could be expanded upon. |
| May 7 17:04:00 | 210h 58m | Oh What a Night | GREEAT! |
| May 7 17:17:00 | 13m 00s | SHAPE.SHIFT() | Great style, and it's a nice simple game. It could be improved with less movement granularity. |
| May 7 17:34:00 | 17m 00s | Duality | GREAT IDEA! |
| May 7 17:51:00 | 17m 00s | Star Buddy | GREAT IDEA! |
| May 7 17:59:00 | 8m 00s | Toyquake | Great game, I love the simple art and gameplay. It's nice and quick to restart as well. |
| May 7 18:13:00 | 14m 00s | Douglas' Escape | Nice idea, gfxs are great! Well done! |
| May 7 18:26:00 | 13m 00s | Theseus | Great game! Lots of fun! |
| May 7 18:36:00 | 10m 00s | SPELLDOWN! | Great game, would love to see it expanded upon into a phone game with friends! :) |
| May 7 18:45:00 | 9m 00s | Star | Great looking game! Loved the audio! |
| May 7 18:57:00 | 12m 00s | Knightwolf | Great game! Thanks for sharing it with us! :) |
| May 7 23:36:00 | 4h 39m | Aether Crypt | Great little game, the art and sound were fantastic. The concept of transforming into characters with different abilities was great as well. The transformation animation was a bit slow though, and some forms seemed more useful than others. Well done overall though. |
| May 7 23:45:00 | 9m 00s | THEY CANNOT DIE | Neat idea, and very well done for 10 hours of work. The towers need to be buffed, because they seem a little useless right now. |
| May 7 23:51:00 | 6m 00s | Double Army | Interesting concept, but it's a bit hard to understand at first and the controls could use some work. |
| May 8 00:05:00 | 14m 00s | Goons | Neat game, I really like the graphics and the shape shifting mechanics. They work super well, and you can set up some interesting traps with them. I wish the gun was a little more accurate though, but maybe it's like that to make the player use the shapeshifting. |
| May 8 00:10:00 | 5m 00s | Aftertile | Great graphics and pretty good music. It wasn't the most fun game I've played, but it was a great overall package. |
| May 8 00:12:00 | 2m 00s | CHORUS | Nice concept, it would have been great to be able to more quickly change to each shape without having to cycle through them. |
| May 8 04:28:00 | 4h 16m | Chub Town | Neat idea, even though I found that the gods get angry quite easily. They got so angry that they destroyed my statue. Great art and sound, even if the music got a bit repetitive. Nice work! |
