| Aug 30 03:57:00 | Heat Up! | This is a great concept. Archimedes was actually the first thing that popped into my head when the theme was announced. I could see a really cool tower defense game from this mechanic. Well done! | |
| Aug 30 04:06:00 | 9m 00s | Desert Strife | Very nice! It's simple but not too simple and a cool concept to boot! I don't think I'd have the courage to tackle a turn based game during ludum dare, but you pulled it off. Well done! |
| Aug 30 04:27:00 | 21m 00s | Five Ancient Keys | Slick. I like your little character animations. Having the hair bounce is really cool. |
| Aug 30 04:37:00 | 10m 00s | Topeka Jones: Raider of the Lost Temple | Great graphics! I can't get enough of them. I always love 3D when it is done well. I'm super jealous! The picking up mechanic is great and really liking the puzzles. Only needs a crosshair I think. I will be coming back to this one for sure. |
| Aug 30 04:53:00 | 16m 00s | Artifex | It seems like this jam was made for classicists lol! This is really great. A bit tricky at first, but lots of fun. I really like the art too. And the clouds and the wind. It all came together for a great effect. Great job guys! |
| Aug 30 05:08:00 | 15m 00s | BOBBLE | Cute little platformer. Wish I had a controller with me as the keyboard is a bit awkward for me on a platformer, but like the concept and the effects. |
| Aug 30 05:40:00 | 32m 00s | Lost Temple | I'm always impressed with the cool stuff people do with simple art and mechanics. Goes to show how much farther I still have to go to being a good game developer. Great job! I enjoyed the game very much. |
| Aug 30 14:23:00 | 8h 43m | The Unreal Odyssey | Very cool. I'm a big fan of the Odyssey so naturally I would like this. I really like the look of the water. The draw distance I found a bit weird. My brain wants a point of interest, but there's little of that in the world. I think if you had points of interest that worked in conjunction with the map, then you'd have a pretty cool dynamic. |
| Aug 30 18:21:00 | 3h 58m | Advance | I really like the sprite art in this and the movement is smooth for the most part. I agree with the first guy, me running around with tech falling every which way and trying to "avoid" it is the story of my life. And also the camera shakes. Great job! |
| Aug 30 23:29:00 | 5h 08m | Search for the Bygone | Pretty cool. Your sky shader is not functioning in the webgl version. You might need to preload the shaders under the Graphics settings and also try preloading them in the build settings for good measure. I had a similar issue with shaders when I first built to webgl. <br/> <br/>I love the title. Really fits in the with the atmosphere you were going for. |
| Aug 30 23:44:00 | 15m 00s | Ancient Contact | I love the art here. This would make for a really cool tower defense like game for the phone or ipad where you have to find resources but also protect the tower. And I like how you have to take the offensive using the very items you need to consume. Great job!! I hope ya'll keep working on this. <br/>And I love developer keys. 1-6 spawn different items. |
| Aug 30 23:49:00 | 5m 00s | WindPowered! | I really like the art and I think it controls pretty well. I did the webgl version but I also downloaded the APK and will try it out on android. I dare say this would make for a high quality android game (compared to a lot of other stuff on google play.) Great job!!! |
| Aug 30 23:59:00 | 10m 00s | Ancient Island Simulator 2016 | This is pretty slick. I like how you boiled the resource management game into such a simple yet effective package. I think I ran into an issue where I couldn't re-assign tools and no one was spawning. But I like it. |
| Aug 31 00:04:00 | 5m 00s | Knocker-Upper | Lot everyone else is saying, amazing art. Really goes together nice with the game play. Really shows how you can liven up a simple genre with a bit of imagination. <br/> <br/>One thing that would be cool is if you get money for everyday on the job (subtracting out the peas used and employees missed) and then get cool upgrades and addons. Excellent work!!Super jealous! |
| Aug 31 00:08:00 | 4m 00s | Force of Wheel | Ha! I'd say it fits the theme very well, considering DOS-like or 4-bit games are like "ancient technology" to most of us with PS4s and iPhones. <br/> <br/>Very cool idea! I love seeing what people can still do with such simple graphics. |
| Aug 31 00:19:00 | 11m 00s | Dinosty Warriors | This GAME! The graphics are so simple and yet the its so intoxicating. The camera shake and destruction really hook you, but man! when you start spawning new dinosaurs it becomes an addiction to see how big you can make your dino army. well done! This is a feel good game that's great to come back to. Thanks for making it! |
| Aug 31 00:22:00 | 3m 00s | Homecoming | Very cool. I just got done playing Firewatch which is very Gone Home-eqse, and I could definitely use more games like this. |
| Aug 31 00:33:00 | 11m 00s | Stone Giant | Nice little Castle in the Sky vibe there. Very neat. You definitely nailed it on the passage of time feeling. |
| Aug 31 00:35:00 | 2m 00s | Chatty | Yeah, I'm using Chrome and I can't seem to create my screen name. Is there a permissions issue maybe? |
| Aug 31 01:13:00 | 38m 00s | Pyramid | You integrated 3D and 2D really well. I'm kinda jealous honestly as I love 2D platformers. The upgrade system was really fun to play with. I kept trying to get my power up as much as possible. You might consider thinking about the relationship of enemies to levels. Right now it feels like you just place enemies around and even piles of them which requires me to spam, which is a tad bit boring. The sentry towers might've been just a tad too quick too. Overall, great job! |
| Aug 31 01:18:00 | 5m 00s | Crossbow Assassin | I gotta say, simple yet effective. You worked the level design in such a way that I either snipe through or do a quick hit and run, which makes me feel like a bad ass assassin. Nice job! |
| Aug 31 01:26:00 | 8m 00s | Colossorama 36 | Dang, just doesn't seem like a fair competition when I encounter someone with great sprite art. I wish someone would make a really "good" game about gladiatorial combat. And this ain't bad! <br/> <br/>This would be really cool on the iPad. I'd get it for sure. |
| Aug 31 01:35:00 | 9m 00s | Pharaoh's Awakening | Great job on the graphics and you really scored on the ominous mood. I will this and hopefully I don't come off too harsh. Every first person with mouse interaction needs a cursor. It helps anchor me because its actually very hard for my mind to know what the center screen is. Also, please keep run in. I know you think that might have destroyed the mood you wanted, but trust me, you nailed the mood, but when I have to walk down a hallway that takes 5 seconds, frustration begins to mount and no amount of mood inducing light and sound is going to help with that. I hope I don't sound too much like a d#$k, but yeah. You got something special going so keep on going. :) |
| Aug 31 01:40:00 | 5m 00s | Anzu: Revelation | I love the atmosphere and the graphics. Serious. I like this type of art better than most photo-realistic stuff. I wish I could find more first person games in this type style. IAnd yes! For jams, don't worry too much about "short" games. That's the most beneficial both in terms of time management both on the developer's end and us gamers. Great job!!! |
| Aug 31 01:58:00 | 18m 00s | Backwoods Culinary Basics | I actually made my own cooking game awhile back and it was quite boring compared to this. How are you doing the interpolation with the food? Are you using physics? Spring? It feels so good and juicy. And the art fits its perfectly. Great job guys! |
