| May 1 09:53:35 | Murder 38 - Episode One: A Small World | ♥ 3 | This game is... AWESOME! I just loved the setting and the overall mood of it and the names... names... perfect ๐. The end game twist was also great, putting the game spot on to the LD38 theme. Keep it up and keep more like this one coming! Please try our entry [Godspeed Mankind](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/godspeed-mankind) and rate it. Thanks! | |
| May 2 12:16:09 | 26h 22m | SmallWorlds | ♥ 1 | Nice little game! I was really struggling at first to get more than one or two jumps, but then after some lucky streak managed to get to about 2500 points. I'm not a big fan of this game type but this one has really nice atmosphere particularly due to nice "doodle" graphics. Keep it up! |
| May 2 12:28:04 | 11m 55s | Strategic Survival | ♥ 1 | I'm getting a null pointer exception when trying to run this game on windows. Hopefully this information helps you in some way (not sure if this is due to version of JRE used or something else): ``` java -jar LD38.jar Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" java.lang.NullPointerException at com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglGraphics.createDisplayPixelFormat(LwjglGraphics.java:322) at com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglGraphics.setupDisplay(LwjglGraphics.java:216) at com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglApplication.mainLoop(LwjglApplication.java:142) at com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglApplication$1.run(LwjglApplication.java:124) java -version java version "1.8.0_131" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_131-b11) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.131-b11, mixed mode, sharing) ``` Was really looking forward to playing your game since it looks visually attractive. I'll check back later to see if the problem is fixed. |
| May 2 12:36:16 | 8m 12s | Earth Invaders | ♥ 2 | Very nice game! I managed to live to something like 650 points when the "big one" finally got the best of the doomed planet ๐. I like how you turned the invaders concept into "world scroller" game. One thing that should maybe be changed is to have a square viewport instead of rectangular since the asteroids coming from top or bottom can really be a pain to kill due to short time from appearing to hitting the planet. On the other hand, this does add some randomness to the game which may not be bad at all. Keep up good work and feel free to try [our entry](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/godspeed-mankind). |
| May 2 12:57:35 | 21m 19s | Puddle Jumper | ♥ 0 | Considering this is a Compo entry, you managed to get quite some gameplay into it. I do miss some audio in it, some soothing music maybe ๐. I did not play much beyond the point where I had to planes to operate and can only imagine how it would be hard to manage 3 or 4 planes simultaneously. The randomness of letters appearing on the airports makes it really hard to do any real planning ahead as well. But overall I think it's a nice game. Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 13:47:32 | 49m 57s | Cowmets | ♥ 1 | Fun game, despite me being unable to catch a single cowmet. Perhaps I should just spend some more time training ๐. Graphics are awesome and so is the sound, especially the music that plays when you're chasing the cowmet ๐. I'm glad I found this one through random game finder! Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 13:54:44 | 7m 12s | Retro Rabbit | ♥ 4 | Had much fun playing this game... well, for as long as I lasted, haha. Munch mode rocks! I love the simplistic yet very attractive graphics this game has as well as the great music which really adds to the mood of speeding around the small globe. And once you die, I like how the music changes to a more morbid theme. So far, this is one of the best games I've played in LD38. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 2 14:06:17 | 11m 33s | Game of Worlds | ♥ 2 | Nice work guys! The general mood of this game is great, loved just roaming around during the day and got brutally eaten while crossing the bridge over the night. Really great graphics and music setting. Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 14:19:30 | 13m 13s | Colorfly | ♥ 1 | Wonderful game, visually stunning and the effort you put into the music really pays off. And good thing you wrote about the end being inevitable, I first thought I did something wrong when the big one caught me ๐. Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 15:09:26 | 49m 56s | Cubeua | ♥ 1 | Too hard for me, died with 70 as highest score ๐. For Compo entry this is well executed and even though graphics are pretty simplistic they kinda grow to you through time and endless deaths from damn triangles ๐. Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 15:15:46 | 6m 20s | Chukwa | ♥ 0 | Must eat all the ๐!!! Do turtles even eat them? Just kidding ๐. I like the gloomy music which adds to the mood when this poor turtle endlessly walks towards the edge and falls off the "world" just to change it's "head wear". I had fun. |
| May 2 15:25:06 | 9m 20s | Happy Planet | ♥ 1 | Nicely done game. Perhaps a bit too easy as I found that only large clusters of enemies posed serious threat to me when they kinda cornered me at the edge of space. Overall mood is nice perhaps it would be even better if there were different kinds of enemies. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 2 15:35:09 | 10m 03s | Spacey Super Shmup | ♥ 0 | I liked it even though it's a bit hard for my taste. Eventually those nasty lasers sniff me and nuke me out of existence ๐. It's a great Compo entry with pretty basic graphics (but I think this is intentional so I consider it a plus) and nice sound. I'm think you managed to get quite some gameplay into it despite limited Compo time you had. Good work! |
| May 2 16:16:18 | 41m 09s | Rift World | ♥ 1 | Very nice game! First I had no idea how to gather resources and how to use them, but as time passed and one of my interns was wiped out I got the hang of it. With one down it was quite a struggle to get to 100% but I did it! ๐. Graphics are very very good, there are some glitches in task assigning it seems (check box is checked but Nick is not curing for example, but I got around it just by disabling and enabling it again). Too bad you didn't manage to do the sounds and music. This game would definitely be much better with them. But overall I think you did an impressive work for such short time. Keep it up!!! |
| May 2 16:45:54 | 29m 36s | Throw | ♥ 1 | Great idea and execution. I loved the music, it really contributes to the overall mood this game has. Considering this is a Compo entry I think you really managed to squeeze quite some quality content into it. Some levels were a bit hard but I managed to complete all of them, yaaay! ๐ Great work, keep it up! |
| May 2 18:13:23 | 1h 27m | Tomorrow or When the world is not bigger than a house | ♥ 0 | Wow, great idea. Reminded me of Groundhog Day movie somehow, trying to do everything right. Except that doing everything just right here takes you to the positive ending, nice!ยจ Thanks for posting the hint about the shower (I actually re-downloaded the game to play it through once I knew what the shower goal is)... I was like Fu***** shower as well, just like the character in the game. By the way, does he have a name? Graphics are really nice and the melancholic music adds to the mood of the game. Keep up good work! |
| May 2 18:31:04 | 17m 41s | SMALL WORLD of LOVER | ♥ 0 | Very nice game. I love the graphics simplicity and sound effects work nice as well. An excellent first time Compo entry, big thumbs up for making all these assets yourself! ๐ Keep up the good work! |
| May 2 18:40:37 | 9m 33s | The World of Zolcraft ๐ | ♥ 1 | Nice one. I used to play WoW and yeah, sometimes it felt just like this ๐. Nice twist on the end! ๐ |
| May 2 19:33:38 | 53m 01s | Haven - The Small World | ♥ 2 | Great little game! I loved the graphics, especially the way you designed the common room. Too bad it's a bit short but hey, it's LD and time is limited. But it has potential and would love to see if you expand it post the Jam at some time. Keep up good work! ๐ |
| May 2 19:49:24 | 15m 46s | The Burrow | ♥ 1 | Wow, I'm amazed at the graphics and the overall mood of this game! I was experiencing some graphical glitches in the worm cave though and at one point just decided to stop collecting coins but I did want to see how the scenery changes through progression. I was surprised when the worm suddenly transformed and later on once again. ๐ I hope to see more like this, keep up good work! |
| May 2 20:07:09 | 17m 45s | Beer in Mind | ♥ 1 | Great game, has huge potential in my opinion. I love the looks of the pub itself and how characters are represented (the silhouettes). I managed to kill someone on day two though, how terrible I am! ๐ฑ I hope you decide to finish this game! Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 4 19:48:27 | 47h 41m | Small Planet | ♥ 0 | It's a great little game! Keeping flying and trying to aim at the enemies is pretty hard though. Eventually I figured out that the easiest thing to do seems to be to find the enemy, camp yourself on the surface of the planet and blow them to kingdom come. Somehow they don't seem to be able to properly aim at player bellow them. Keep up the good work! |
| May 4 20:15:51 | 27m 24s | Space Raiders | ♥ 1 | This game has some super nice graphics and setting, but man it's hard... or at least I'm to clumsy to do anything the way I should. I did manage to light a fire once, still not sure how since I had wood on other tries but pressing E key just didn't do any magic. And then I ran out of ammo every time and died ๐. Still, I think it's fun. Perhaps the "How to" should explain mechanics a little better and I found it impossible to get out of the heart pit once I fell into it... which was more times than I didn't haha. At first I also didn't notice the exit button, perhaps you should enable exiting from current game by pressing escape key as well. Good work overall, keep it up! |
| May 4 20:22:49 | 6m 58s | Timmy and the Snowflake | ♥ 2 | Too bad there is so many problems with navigation, because I really like the idea as you described in the description of a boy trying to see the snow. Sadly I didn't manage to get out and poor Timmy will have to wait for someone else to grant him his wish. Keep working on games! ๐ |
| May 4 20:31:37 | 8m 48s | Sir Shrink-A-Lot | ♥ 1 | Wow, I love the idea! I took me some time to figure out when it's worth shrinking and vice versa but once I did I got to enjoy few quite good runs but still I found it to be a quite hard game. Also I think that semi randomness (at least it seems so) of the levels is very cool. And that poor doctor with tear in his eyes in the intro, that was great! Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 4 21:10:14 | 38m 37s | Mallows World Adventure | ♥ 1 | Nice game and great idea. I found it amazing how all those places were interconnected with one another. The graphics and music really bring out the spirit of those 80s platformers. Congrats for putting this all together for the Compo and keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 4 21:19:35 | 9m 21s | Pale Blue Dot | ♥ 1 | I could just skip the asteroids part and just watch the planets slowly zooming by. Great atmosphere! |
| May 6 06:19:50 | 33h 00m | Small World Fighters | ♥ 3 | Nice game, especially the graphics are really pleasant. Had to play it solo and playing it in 4 player mode with AI it was not really a challenge to win since spamming the weapon seemed like the way to go. Didn't event try to dodge anything as kill per death ratio was more than enough with this strategy. As others suggested, overhauling the shooting mechanics should be one of the priorities and then maybe add few platforms to add additional dimension to the game. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 6 06:33:23 | 13m 33s | Cataclysm of a Potted Plant | ♥ 1 | The idea is nice, combination of snake like and jumper game. The first level was way too hard for my taste, would be a bit easier probably if the camera started scrolling up faster, not when the worm was half screen up since it would be easier to predict where player should continue to go up. Seconds level does seem a bit easier but I didn't manage to get through it either as I usually fell to my death bellow instead of being hit by rain drops ๐ The graphics, especially level two, are really nice and so is the accompanying music! I also liked the dialogue, it really adds to the mood of the game. Too bad you didn't implement some in game restart of level after worm dies, game quitting and requiring manual restart gets a bit tedious after some time. Nice work though, keep it up! ๐ |
| May 6 06:46:50 | 13m 27s | Timeless | ♥ 1 | This is one amazing Compo entry! I really love the idea of switching between two rooms to get through the level and you executed it very very well. The graphics are cool and so is the music. Sometimes I'm really impressed by how much a single person can cramp up in those pesky 42 hours and this is one of those times. The difficulty gets quite hard and I have to admit that I stopped playing after getting to one of those levels with bullets where you have to time switches between rooms and jump timing perfectly to be able to get across the lava (it is lava, right?). One of my favorite entries so far! Keep up the good work!!! ๐ |
| May 6 07:00:45 | 13m 55s | Invaders of Yekithar | ♥ 1 | Really cool game! The graphics are really nice, the aliens could perhaps use a little more touch but overall it great. Music is immersive and really sets up the mood for the game. And as far as the gameplay is concerned I think it's really well executed. Jumping could be polished a bit more and perhaps it would be good if it was possible to jump on the platform directly from being bellow it. What I really really liked and noticed quite soon as I begun spamming my gun on the aliens is that it has recoil and WILL push you off the platform if you resort to this tactics. Adding the coins which drop from aliens is also a nice touch though I CBA to pick them up anymore once the number of baddies grew. Great Compo entry, keep it up! ๐ |
| May 6 07:21:00 | 20m 15s | Human Tragedy | ♥ 2 | I like! Big thumbs up for the setting and the mood. Character's occasional monologues add to game mood really well and make up for generally pretty basic mechanics. Loved the character graphics and I think the music is great as well. As for the ending, haha, I really thought something else would happen, nice twist! Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 6 17:46:50 | 10h 25m | Space Aliens Are Coming | ♥ 1 | I think this is a great idea and quite well realized. Perhaps there could be more things that workers would do, then I could just watch them going about their business, living their lives, making babies, chopping down trees... and the other things... not because they are easy, but because they are hard ๐ I read you post mortem as well as I was interested in what else you had in mind for this game. I think it doesn't matter that your original idea didn't turn out as it should, what's important is that you found the will to go with another one after spending quite some time on the first one already. I would love to see how the post LD version would look like with improved graphics and additional mechanics. Overall it's a nice little game and you deserve big ๐ for it. Keep up the good work! |
| May 9 20:27:16 | 74h 40m | Last Bloom | ♥ 1 | This is a really nice game with great potential. I loved the graphics and the music is cool as well with the beat adding to the tempo of the game. On first try I didn't even know how to attack so I did manage to get to see the whole level ๐ I found it pretty simple eventually to keep the bad guys of the platforms but eventually I managed to fall to my untimely demise bellow. Oh well, I guess that's one way to go ๐ Perhaps you could add some more enemy types with different behaviors and maybe some powerups player could use to get out of hairy situations. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 13 15:11:44 | 90h 44m | Planet Heist | ♥ 1 | Just read a nice post mortem you wrote and I really wish I could play the game. Sadly my windows crapped on me and I'll have to do a reinstall, hopefully by the end of judging so I can play your game since there's no Linux version. The game looks very nice on the screenshots and considering the reviews of others seems to be fun as well. I'll be back with the real feedback if I manage to play it ๐ |
| May 13 23:19:39 | 8h 07m | Raven Delivery Service | ♥ 0 | Very cool game! I love the graphics and the soundtrack and I wish I had someone here to test it with in co-op mode since I suck at multitasking ๐ Great concept, the theme is spot on and I hope to see more from you. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 14 17:01:21 | 17h 41m | Protolife | ♥ 0 | Wow, great adaptation of tower defense games! I love how placing the defense system is executed as it offers a lot of strategic possibilities based on orientation of defense devices and also there's quite some strategy involved in whether a player should place more defenses or upgrade existing ones. Conversion between different cellular parts is also a nice touch. I have to admit that I wasn't very good at playing it though and got killed pretty soon, hehe. Music is nice and simplistic graphics give the game some nice artistic touch, I didn't miss higher resolution graphics at all. Sounds and music are also very good and fit great in to general mood of this game. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 14 17:19:04 | 17m 43s | It's A Small World And It's Gonna Get Smaller | ♥ 1 | Nice little game which offers quite some fun. I didn't really figure out how to drop the people into the damn hole, not sure if possible at all though. Crashing about 100 people onto Area 51 was quite satisfying though ๐ The graphics are really pretty and the music/sound is quite good as well, though the initial tune stopped playing after some time in the game. Game got really slow sometimes over Area 51 but I attribute this to poor graphics card in my laptop. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 14 17:29:42 | 10m 38s | Earth Quest | ♥ 0 | The idea is nice, similar to our entry in some way I think. Graphics are very appealing and the music/sound is nice also, though the music loop is a bit short but it has kind of "impending doom" sound in it ๐ What I missed is that there's no in game indicators about cost and effects of particular items player can buy/build and even though I went to read the help I didn't really memorize the costs and effects. This is definitely something that should be improved. Overall I think that it fits nicely into the theme and the mood is good as well! Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 14 20:40:12 | 3h 10m | Bad RNG | ♥ 0 | Cool game with great graphics and some nice sounds as well. Too bad my laptop really struggled with WebGL version but it was fun none the less. Perhaps a second RNG could be placed in the right part of the screen since it's not utilized at all but hey, it's a Compo entry and I think you already managed to squeeze quite a lot into it. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 14 20:54:35 | 14m 23s | Inside Inc. | ♥ 1 | Great entry! I love both visual and audible perspective of it. The pulsating walls are nice touch and I also liked the navigation since I didn't have to bother with which way the ship was oriented when moving around. Still it was a bit to hard for me, especially when I encountered the enemies which spawned smaller ones on death. Maybe if I gave it one or two more tries I would have been able to clear the entire map instead of dying in the last room ๐ Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 15 16:10:28 | 19h 15m | MF100 - HACK THE JAM (old console emulator) | ♥ 2 | Hehe, this is so cool. I loved both mini games, the pong and the hacking RPG like battle. I must admit that I didn't really feel like doing programming in LUA but you deserve big thumbs up for implementing both the language APIs and the "gimp" editor, very nice! Being a sysadmin I wish I saw more games like this and I was glad to find your post on the site today even though I remember seeing this while the jam was ongoing. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 15 20:45:53 | 4h 35m | Backyard Warriors | ♥ 1 | Great entry with really nice graphics. I wish the music was a bit louder than it is. Gameplay while simplistic is pretty appealing and didn't get boring even after some time of playing. Definitely it would be great if there were some more weapons options or maybe some traps available, hopefully you extend it after the jam. The only problem I encountered is when my character sometimes glitched near the wall and I wasn't able to move away from it anymore until the next round. Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 20 06:49:32 | 106h 03m | Tiny Tony | ♥ 3 | Wow, I'm amazed by what you managed to achieve in this short time. Extremely beautiful graphics and soothing music complete the general set up for this game. Too bad that my poor laptop is not coping to good with web based version which I played so sadly I was not able to complete the game. But I can only imagine how great this would look on some large monitor in dark room with headphones on. Certainly looking forward to more games from you! Keep up the good work! ๐ |
| May 20 16:19:16 | 9h 29m | Hopeless Void | ♥ 1 | I have same problem on Linux @zarkonnen mentioned. Too bad, I was really hoping I could help you with getting 20 ratings. Keeping fingers crossed that you make it though! ๐ค |
