| May 1 08:37:49 | eiland | ♥ 0 | Cute game! I like the trial & error puzzle exploration in this one 🏝 Although I'm not entirely sure if there's more to it other than the statue firing up that laser and flooding the island. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something! | |
| May 1 09:07:12 | 29m 23s | Crumble Crust | ♥ 2 | I think the game & concept is definitely worth further development. Maybe expand on the idea a bit and turn it into a full-on mobile game release? 👍 |
| May 1 10:04:05 | 56m 53s | Noizy | ♥ 1 | This game has a cohesive art style to it and the base concept is very sound. I also like that you packaged it into a short but complete experience. Great job! 👌 |
| May 1 10:49:12 | 45m 07s | Retro Rabbit | ♥ 4 | Loving the arcadey feel of this one! I must have totally flipped the game since I got -1950098. My rabbit got so huge he covered the whole planet 🐰 |
| May 1 11:02:31 | 13m 19s | WRAP | ♥ 1 | A fun game with a rewarding wrapping mechanic. The minimalist art style works well, although it needs some colour adjustments. Music got repetitive and grating very quickly but all in all it was a neat experience! |
| May 1 11:13:50 | 11m 19s | Flovala | ♥ 2 | Ah, such a relaxing atmosphere. This reminds me of the game flOw from Thatgamecompany. Great job! ✨️ |
| May 1 15:29:09 | 4h 15m | S.A.V.E.🐣 | ♥ 3 | Cute art with a great message. I like that you went with the WarioWare-style type of play for the game! |
| May 1 17:18:58 | 1h 49m | Petty Puny Planet 38 | ♥ 2 | This was a very clever and fun entry. I definitely enjoyed it and kept on clicking to see what future entailed my little planet.. great job! 🌚 |
| May 1 17:32:27 | 13m 29s | Brainstorm 38 | ♥ 2 | Unique & lovely concept! I thought the game was well paced but could do with a tiny bit more polish. Still cool though! |
| May 1 19:45:33 | 2h 13m | Microbe Mash | ♥ 1 | I like this puzzle mechanic of combining microbes for them to evolve, I think there could be a lot of ways to expand upon this mechanic. It's fun to see that we had such similar ideas yet they both ended up so different! |
| May 2 06:55:02 | 11h 09m | Colonize | ♥ 2 | I think the concept of this game fit the theme well. I also like that this was a complete experience. I'm not sure the chat does anything in this version but it would have been very cool to receive different types responses from the villagers 🗣 👥👥 |
| May 2 07:16:28 | 21m 26s | ＲＥＴＲＯＨＡＣＫＥＲ １９９３ | ♥ 1 | Loving the concept of this! I think the aesthetic is well handled and feels very nostalgic as well. I really think this game has a lot of potential if you ever plan on expanding on it! 👁 💻 |
| May 2 07:58:05 | 41m 37s | NomNom | ♥ 1 | I think you guys did a good job of creating a cohesive experience for this Ludum Dare. I played this alone but I can definitely imagine that it would be fun to play with a friend. Cute game! 🍋 🍇 |
| May 2 08:13:44 | 15m 39s | Tiny Battle World | ♥ 1 | Hoo boy, this game is fun! Cute pixel art (is that the pico8 palette I see? 👁). If there's any feedback I could add it is the controls felt a bit sluggish, especially for an online multiplayer game that require precision inputs. The ability to chat with other players would also have been a lovely addition. |
| May 2 09:09:29 | 55m 45s | Giant Friend | ♥ 1 | Doshin the Giant but instead of helping people he completely and utterly destroy their lives. Oh Doshin, time changed you.. 😢 All kidding aside I think this feels like a mix between Doshin the Giant and Katamari Damacy. I think the arcade-y gameplay fits very well into the tone of the game. It could do with some polish though! |
| May 2 09:45:41 | 36m 12s | Leucos | ♥ 1 | Lovely idea and a nice use of time in terms of scope. Really cute characters! I thought the overall gameplay worked well and felt fun. I would have liked the camera to extend a bit to where your aim was in addition to it simply following the player character but it wasn't too much of an issue. Again, super cute.. Great job! |
| May 2 11:57:09 | 2h 11m | Cowmets | ♥ 1 | Really cool and more importantly fun idea for a game. I loved being a Space Cowboy chasing down those rare Cowmets! I also like the fact that you have a fully functional gameplay loop, heck even an intro! 🐮 |
| May 2 12:23:25 | 26m 16s | Den | ♥ 2 | Innovative idea and a very unique atmosphere. I loved the sense of feeling like a huge creature when squishing those little bugger workers 👷 I know there was not a whole lot of time for this jam but I would have liked more puzzle elements like the one at end which I thought was pretty neat! |
| May 2 13:42:27 | 1h 19m | Murder Mitosis | ♥ 1 | Fun local multiplayer game with interesting game mechanics! Title and title name is really good too! I played this one solo and still had a good time competing against the AI. The UI and grey energy pellets might need some adjustments to stand out, some people might have a hard time seeing them clearly. |
| May 2 15:47:41 | 2h 05m | "Comme le monde est petit ! " Smalltalk Supermarket | ♥ 1 | Really neat take on this year's Ludum Dare theme! I thought the different characters were cute and with the background ambience it really felt like I was browsing around a small supermarket. I think some kid might have messed with the wheels on my cart though! 🙃 |
| May 2 16:05:40 | 17m 59s | AXL-5 | ♥ 1 | Nice old school platformer/metroidvania with CGA colours. I enjoyed most parts except for perhaps some previously discussed parts of the last level. I appreciated the variable jump height too. Oh and let's not forget that genius swimming animation, so good! 🌊 |
| May 2 20:38:07 | 4h 32m | Snail Fighter | ♥ 2 | Really interesting mechanic to have bullets wrap around the screen. Tough as nails, I kept shooting myself in the back. Trust no one, not even yourself! 🐌 🔫 |
| May 2 20:48:00 | 9m 53s | Star Traveller | ♥ 4 | Interesting point-and-click game. I thought you handled the puzzles very well as they felt intuitive and self explanatory. I liked the atmosphere of the game and hope that little Star Traveller has a long life ahead of him/her/it! |
| May 3 07:07:30 | 10h 19m | Aether Mine | ♥ 1 | I enjoyed the mood of this game and ended up playing it way longer than I had expected. I think you succeeded in making a sort of mini sim city! I would have liked the build menu to always be present instead of having it pop-up and cover most of the game but other that 👌 ✨️ |
| May 3 08:38:16 | 1h 30m | The Spoiled Prince | ♥ 1 | Whoa, a actual fun escort mission 😲 I loved bzz-ing around in this game and that spoiled prince is cute as heck! |
| May 3 08:58:09 | 19m 53s | E.(a)T. | ♥ 0 | Adorable characters and overall fun game! Very cool that you included online leaderboards as well! 📡 |
| May 3 11:59:23 | 3h 01m | A Bloody Small World | ♥ 2 | A bloody charming entry with a unique concept! 💖 As previously mentioned the somewhat automatic steering really helped with otherwise potential annoyances and that popping sound when delivering oxygen was very satisfying indeed! |
| May 3 12:18:24 | 19m 01s | Annulus | ♥ 0 | I enjoyed the science fiction mood of this game. As others have previously mentioned the camera & controls could have been improved upon but other than that it was still interesting to roam about this circular world. I played the bug fixed build but was still able to reproduce the "hold button to get infinite amounts of food"-bug however there were no babies to hold me down! |
| May 3 12:41:25 | 23m 01s | Echoes | ♥ 1 | Lovely use of minimalism and I really liked the use of echolocation as main gameplay mechanic. I thought you found a good use for it in terms of puzzles in the limited amount of time you had. Just a really solid and enjoyable Ludum Dare entry, great job! 🦇 |
| May 3 15:29:30 | 2h 48m | The Space Explorer | ♥ 1 | A very solid Ludum Dare entry! I feel that the cut scenes really helped with the overall experience, they were definitively well worth the effort. Great work! |
| May 3 17:17:04 | 1h 47m | Stardust - A space adventure | ♥ 1 | I like that you went with hand-drawn graphics for this classic point & click adventure game. I also appreciate the fact that you included a menu with options such as sound/music. I will echo the the thoughts of maybe avoiding mixing assets of different resolutions and also the fact that since this game is all black & white it's important to create contrasts as to where the audience eyes should be drawn to. Other than this I enjoyed my little adventure as a space man as well as the banter with my sassy computer sidekick! |
| May 3 18:54:45 | 1h 37m | Food Fight | ♥ 1 | This could have been a pretty boring top-down shooter but I think the addition of having to dodge environment objects at the beginning of each wave was a clever choice. I also really liked seeing a human clear the table at the end of the waves, it felt like it added to the lore of the game which really helps with atmosphere! All in all fun experience but could do with a power-up and maybe even different types of enemies 👍 |
| May 3 20:05:18 | 1h 10m | The Adventure of Malvin | ♥ 2 | A fast paced and really cute platformer! I think if there's any critique I would give it is that you should have lerped the camera according to the direction the player object is moving so that it doesn't lag behind, that is to say when player object is moving the camera is always looking slightly ahead of the player object. Other than that I liked it! Oh and that slide was just too cute! 🐞 |
| May 3 20:11:42 | 6m 24s | The Village | ♥ 2 | This was a really pleasant experience! Upgrading buildings and watching travelers pass by the little village felt cool but I really loved being able to just throw a bunch of gold at people! 💰💰💰 |
| May 3 20:30:06 | 18m 24s | Little Infinity | ♥ 1 | This was an overall lovely experience. The puzzle mechanic was both intuitive and fun and I quite liked the sound design as well! This idea could and should definitely be expanded on.. Great job, guys! 👌 ✨️ |
| May 4 07:19:16 | 10h 49m | Skylands | ♥ 3 | Finally I get to play a game with Mark's art and it was super cute! This was a lovely puzzle game and you even had time to make 8 levels. Music was good but the SFX was slightly grating. Really great job overall! 🌱 ✨️ |
| May 4 07:33:12 | 13m 56s | NekomimiAtsume | ♥ 1 | You made a really great base for a game here. I think it has potential to be expanded on! It reminds me of all those Kairosoft games and I think this would fit that style of gameplay but perhaps more in the direction of a Tamagotchi or a Neko Atsume (hence the name, I guess? heh). Really cute! |
| May 4 07:44:46 | 11m 34s | Down the Rabbit Hole | ♥ 5 | Mysterious narrative, hexagonal puzzle gameplay, cool pixel art.. What more is there to ask for?! This Ludum Dare entry felt very complete and polished. Great work! 🎩 🐰 ✨️ |
| May 4 07:53:54 | 9m 08s | This is the End: Small World | ♥ 3 | Man, I love these types of turn-based builders. I think you did a great job with this one and the sound effects made it super fun to play! Wee Bzz Bzz Wee Maooww Weee Bzz Bzz Prepare for blast-off! 😎 |
| May 4 08:07:33 | 13m 39s | Glass Houses | ♥ 1 | You really did a great job at conveying story and atmosphere in this game. It felt mysterious, scary and even oppressive at times.. and the ending felt freeing and bittersweet! Really cool entry! ✨️ |
| May 4 08:22:45 | 15m 12s | Space Diver | ♥ 1 | A simple mechanic but since it relies on gravity there's a lot of depth there which is always fun, sort of the "easy to learn, fun to master" notion. I thought it was really neat that you included a leaderboard as well 👌 |
| May 4 09:13:08 | 50m 23s | Slice of Life | ♥ 4 | Damn this game is fresh! I really enjoyed the music and I thought the art was hilarious. Fun game, really well made, really cool win/lose states. Overall great job! 🍕 |
| May 4 09:33:40 | 20m 32s | Batter Bros. | ♥ 3 | A Lethal League-like game but with cuter art. I thought you did especially great work with the limited amount of time you had what with a fully functional CPU and even different modes of difficulty. I loved the absolute mayhem of having several balls on the playfield! 💥⚾️⚾️⚾️ |
| May 4 13:47:54 | 4h 14m | Snowday | ♥ 1 | I like the minimalism of this entry. I also think sound design was really well done, I could really feel the snow beneath my feet. I think as @palemachine said it would have been interesting with a few extra interactions scattered about, or maybe a run button, or an option to lay down in the snow. Other than that I feel the game really hits the intended mood. ⛄️ |
| May 5 07:06:31 | 17h 18m | Shrink | ♥ 2 | Good use of combining Alice in Wonderland and a shrinking mechanic as main driving force. I think the voice-over story telling really helps with context and atmosphere! I also had slight issues with clipping but other than that I enjoyed it! 👧 🐭 |
| May 5 09:33:11 | 2h 26m | Space Caves | ♥ 0 | Lovely entry. I thought the shipped controlled well and I really like the idea of having to be wary of your surroundings and of your own bullets. I think this is a nice base of something can be expanded on and turned into a full game. 🚀💥✨️ |
| May 5 10:53:58 | 1h 20m | Planet Bash | ♥ 0 | Good graphics, I love the tilt shift! That's some well executed planet bashing! |
| May 5 11:11:21 | 17m 23s | Party in Buntingville | ♥ 0 | Fun concept! The mechanics were simple and worked well with the narrative and I thought the graphics fit the tone of the game as well. Charming! 🗣 |
| May 5 11:40:34 | 29m 13s | Daily Routine: the smallest worlds are the ones we get stuck in | ♥ 2 | This was a really well realised Ludum Dare entry with a lovely message attached to it.. Well done! 🤔 Hmm, I think I might go see how many CPS I can do in real life! 🥄 |
| May 12 11:28:17 | 167h 47m | Little Lands | ♥ 1 | This was a just a really coherent and polished entry overall! You managed to make a complete feeling game for this Ludum Dare and I really enjoyed playing it too. I thought the slight grind felt totally worth it once I got that sweet ending. Really great job! 👌✨️ |
| May 12 11:37:12 | 8m 55s | Orchardstra | ♥ 2 | I had no idea what I was doing when playing this but it felt great! Creative stuff! 🔨 |
| May 20 13:48:51 | 194h 11m | AS Mall World | ♥ 1 | A neat Vaporwave-like game with experimental gameplay. The 💵 money shooting mechanic 💵 was very rewarding, I ended up spending a lot of money on fashionable wares before I decided to exit the mall. Loving the abscense of violence in this entry 👌 |
