| May 1 08:27:19 | Small World a Flask | ♥ 1 | I'm not entirely sure what to do here. Perhaps a bit more of an explanation or tutorial would be good. | |
| May 1 08:34:35 | 7m 16s | Primordial Ooze | ♥ 1 | Cool idea. Confused me a bit when you move between different 'depths', every step looks like the previous one, so I have no idea if I just went deeper or something didn't go right. But as said, cool idea. |
| May 1 08:43:27 | 8m 52s | Shrunk Down | ♥ 2 | Cool idea for the theme. (Although, wouldn't this technically be a giant world, instead of a small world?) Platforming physics weren't the best, I got stuck on the side of platforms a lot while jumping. You can also spam mudballs once he has his arms up by spamming spacebar. I liked the art, although it's not top quality, I dig the handdrawn vibe. |
| May 1 08:48:20 | 4m 53s | In Defense of a Dragon | ♥ 1 | Like the expanding map idea. The towers don't seem to scale along with the map though, making it pretty hard to see what's going on. |
| May 1 08:53:49 | 5m 29s | The Last Haven | ♥ 2 | Awesome graphics. Loving the colors. Fluid gameplay, although the camera moves a bit too harsh when switching direction, makes it a bit difficult to see what's going on. |
| May 1 09:06:57 | 13m 08s | SHAKEDOWN | ♥ 0 | Awesome stuff! Loving the style and the mood you got going on. Pineapple pizza is a great theme. Good audio too. |
| May 1 09:14:03 | 7m 06s | The World of Zolcraft 🌎 | ♥ 2 | Not a lot of gameplay, but I liked your take on the theme. |
| May 1 09:21:17 | 7m 14s | Cosmic Chaos Crunch | ♥ 2 | Cool stuff, but indeed a bit too easy. Could be an awesome minigame if you balance it right. Like the idea, it looks good, so good job overall. |
| May 1 09:32:17 | 11m 00s | ATLANTIS | ♥ 3 | Interesting stuff. Love the style. Was a bit confused on how to play and how to activate/interact with towers and such. Sometimes my unit moved when I clicked a menu item. Sound effects are a bit harsh. But yeah, a lot of potential here if you manage to explain the way its played a bit better. |
| May 1 09:42:46 | 10m 29s | Six Degrees of Separation Between Me and the Party | ♥ 1 | Awesome style! Fun little adventure game, good job on this. Nice on for the theme as well. |
| May 1 09:52:11 | 9m 25s | Bad Panda 2 | ♥ 1 | RIP in peace yo. I like the added run for your life element later on, makes it a bit more than a simple platformer. Music doesn't seem to fit all too well, but it's not bad. Collision seems a bit off here and there. I like the giant panda. |
| May 1 09:59:55 | 7m 44s | Vanishing Point | ♥ 2 | Great art, that's for sure. Not a whole lot of gameplay yet, but I could totally see this working as a nice adventure puzzle game. |
| May 1 10:02:50 | 2m 55s | Retro Rabbit | ♥ 4 | Great job! Everything looks great, the vibe works, gameplay is nice and fluid, sounds are great. Awesome stuff. |
| May 1 11:07:00 | 1h 04m | Theatre Throw-Down | ♥ 1 | Cool little game, good replayablity factor due to the random generation. Could have used more enemy variation, but I understand the time crunch. Mechanics work nicely, sometimes it's a bit easy to get enemies stuck and sometimes you have no chance at all, getting rushed at the start, but overall enjoyable game. A good base you could easily build into something bigger. |
| May 1 11:16:16 | 9m 16s | Bubblenaut | ♥ 2 | Love the style, really nice graphics. Cool concept too. Platforming could use a little bit more work, but this game really stands out for me. Good job. |
| May 1 11:24:03 | 7m 47s | LD-38 SUPER SMALL WORLDS | ♥ 1 | Love the weirdness. Creepy meatdudes, awesome stuff. Controls felt a bit rough and the background/foreground elements seemed a bit too hard to distinguish sometimes, but I understand that's part of the design of the game. |
| May 1 11:48:08 | 24m 05s | Comet Core | ♥ 2 | Absolutely love this style. Reminds me of commander keen somehow. Didn't get very far yet, but I'm surely going to give it another go. Plays nicely, easy controls, I like that you kind of have to figure out what to do and where to go. Is it intentional that you can shoot through walls when you stand next to them? |
| May 1 12:23:09 | 35m 01s | World of Hamster Kibble | ♥ 1 | Rad hamster dude. Groovy art style, good little eating animation. Really fluid gameplay. A bit hard to see where I'm going and what the endgame is when you get all the food. |
| May 1 12:28:20 | 5m 11s | Tiny Worlds in Flasks | ♥ 1 | Very nice style. Not much of a game, but you know that already. Cool little tool, I like the world in a bottle idea and it's nicely executed. Would be cool to see this developed some more! |
| May 1 12:33:22 | 5m 02s | Stretchy Paw | ♥ 0 | Cool little game. Would have loved to see some more levels and perhaps some more gameplay elements. Kitty looks good, I like the simple style, it works. |
| May 1 12:44:02 | 10m 40s | You Just Don't Get It | ♥ 1 | Sad story :( But good job on the way it is told, good concept. Would have been cool if there was a way to influence the story some more. I like the mix between 3d and 2d graphics, works really well. Sound is just right. |
| May 1 12:59:33 | 15m 31s | BUTERATOS | ♥ 1 | Insane graphics, love the crazy over the top stuff. Gameplay isn't as great and could have used more attention. Feels a bit wonky, a bit slow. You're going for a run and gun on steroids basically, it would fit a lot better if the game also played fast. Also, reading the previous comments and seeing the 'older' version leaves me with a mixed feeling. It looks like a recycled and upgraded version of something you already had going on. A lot of the same characters, just with better details. It doesn't look like you started from scratch, it looks like you used whatever you had as a base and worked from there, and I don't think that's what this competition is about. But whether or not it was completely made during de LD, I love the crazy insane vibe! |
| May 1 13:09:48 | 10m 15s | Carcinogenocide | ♥ 0 | First impression: a bit dark. I get that you're going for a dark intestine environment, but it would be nice to see a bit more. Love the start screen art. Wish there was more stuff like that visible in the game. Other than that, it plays well. Controls are a bit iffy, somehow sometimes my character just goes on autofire and I don't have to click to shoot anymore. Different weapons are nice, would be cool if they upgraded your weapon if you pick up a weapon you're already using. Audio is great. |
| May 1 13:16:10 | 6m 22s | Party in Buntingville | ♥ 0 | Original idea, I like it. Nicely made, plays well. The controls match the art style. Sometimes feels like your movement is a bit blocky/rigid, but then again everything is blocky. So that's no major issue. Good job on this. |
| May 1 13:26:15 | 10m 05s | Monster Deck | ♥ 1 | Cool game! Took me a few tries to understand that I had to wait and time my attack and defend. Style looks really solid, sounds work well, controls are nice and easy. Sometimes I can't seem to add certain monsters to my hand, I'm not sure why. Other than that, really solid entry! |
| May 1 14:00:53 | 34m 38s | FUEL | ♥ 1 | Great game! Good difficulty curve. A nice challenge to do things as fast as you can while not crashing. Graphics are not great, but do the job just fine. Same with the audio, but the gameplay is where this game really excels. Really really solid entry. |
| May 1 14:06:36 | 5m 43s | LD38 - Big Dreams | ♥ 2 | Cool little game. Nice variation in power-ups and good increasing difficulty. Bullets feel very slow. Music is well made, but I personally think it's not a great match with the game. Other than that, good job! |
| May 1 14:21:01 | 14m 25s | Den | ♥ 3 | Beautiful stuff, congrats! Really enjoyed the overall atmosphere. Gameplay/mechanics weren't the best, but that's not what this game is about. Really well done guys. |
| May 1 14:38:04 | 17m 03s | Unnamed Space Project | ♥ 2 | Pretty cool actually. I can see where you were going with this, this is a pretty solid start. I like the artwork, 'planets' are a bit simple perhaps, but the enemies and ship look great. Ingame music has a nice pace. |
| May 1 17:14:56 | 2h 36m | Petty Puny Planet 38 | ♥ 3 | Well made! Everything looks and feels great. Gameplay-wise not very fun, but the results fun. I like how things you choose can have effect on the way random events are handled. Played it a few times to see if I could get different endings, so it's definitely replayable. |
| May 1 17:20:40 | 5m 44s | Hexoworld 9999 | ♥ 0 | Nicely done. A bit slow/hard at the start, but once you get going it's pretty awesome. I like the way you move around the world. A bit hard to aim sometimes. Sounds are good. Graphics are good enough. Overall could use some polish but really solid game! |
| May 1 17:32:44 | 12m 04s | Colorfly | ♥ 1 | Lovely atmosphere. Great music too, well done. Sound effects are not as good, but they work. Game itself is a bit easy, but it fits the vibe you're going for. |
| May 1 17:41:10 | 8m 26s | The Little World | ♥ 0 | Interesting idea. Gets pretty hard after a bit. I liked it. Could use a bit more feedback on what you're doing and what you're forgetting to do. Audio could help with that. The planet looks a bit bare, graphic-wise. |
| May 1 17:51:04 | 9m 54s | RC kitchen Throwdown | ♥ 1 | Dang dog keeps flipping me over. I like the idea. The car felt very slow in the first version, a lot better in the second one, although a bit like I was driving on a slick surface. The dog food thing totally lags my game but you know that already. Dog sound is nice, I like the slightly terrifying feeling when he's right behind you. Well done. |
| May 1 18:08:55 | 17m 51s | Supernova | ♥ 1 | Cool game! Loving the style and how good the controls feel. Simple but effective. Background music could use a bit more variation (on the planets). I like the looping around the levels, that's a nice touch. Planets could have used maybe another added difficulty, most of them weren't really that challenging. The switch between piloting a ship and running around on a planet is nicely done, works well together. Overall, good job. |
| May 1 18:23:30 | 14m 35s | Space Pow Collins | ♥ 1 | Cool little text adventure. Couldn't find the last two endings. Is there something more than just the buttons/lever? |
| May 1 18:49:39 | 26m 09s | Elf's Conquest | ♥ 3 | Cool small game. Looks really good. Good animations, only one missing is a shooting animation. But good stuff nonetheless. Platforming is simple, feels a bit clunky, especially when you're being chased by the big dude. The art is better than the gameplay, so the gameplay could use some work, but nice end result. |
| May 1 19:00:52 | 11m 13s | Miniverse | ♥ 2 | Cool idea. Seems to work well too. Got an Out of memory error after a while though, and the game crashed. Besides that, I liked the style, the animations look great, good job on those. Moving your planet felt a bit slow, but hey, it's a planet. |
| May 2 07:45:00 | 12h 44m | Near kingdoms | ♥ 1 | Neat little game. Good idea to not just include fighting units but also a gatherer dude. Nice balance. Pixel art looks good, it works. Could have used a background music track and perhaps some more useful or special units, but it's a nicely made game in such a tight time crunch. Good job! |
| May 2 08:00:41 | 15m 41s | Phaeton | ♥ 1 | Really different, I like it. Sad little Pluto, nobody wants to listen to him. Controls felt like they could have been a bit smoother, felt pretty rigid for a planet, but that's a minor thing. There was a bit of a flickering of being lit, but I guess that's because sometimes stuff blocks the light from the sun. Makes sense, but looks a bit odd. I'm not sure how to improve that, as it's logical that something flying between you and the sun blocks the light, but just thought I'd mention it. Story was good, concept is great, nicely done! |
| May 2 09:38:14 | 1h 37m | Llama's World | ♥ 4 | Great game! Mechanics work nice and smooth. Game is challenging enough. At first it felt like the arrows to slide were pointing to wrong way. More than once I clicked one, thinking it would go the opposite way. Maybe that's me, maybe the arrows should point the direction in which the whole board is going to slide. But once you get the hang of it, it's no problem. Graphics look good, UI/menu could have used some more love, it didn't feel quite up to par with the rest of the game. Bonus points for using a llama. |
| May 2 10:01:36 | 23m 22s | Little Wild Invasion | ♥ 1 | Game looks great! The enemy especially. Difficulty is a bit high, seems like I went game over pretty quickly every time. Music is okay. Overall good game! |
| May 2 11:51:17 | 1h 49m | A Small World Cup | ♥ 1 | This is way too awesome, I love it! Really simple concept, but brilliantly made. Some sound would have been cool. Great job, so much wacky fun. |
| May 2 14:06:37 | 2h 15m | Floraison | ♥ 3 | This looks absolutely amazing, well done. Big contender in the graphics department. Gameplay was nice and smooth, not a lot of gameplay elements, but it fits the chill vibe the game has. Music works well. Would love to see a bit more challenge in one way or another. Excellent job. |
