May 4 00:34:59 Comet Escape ♥ 1 Good game! The movement is a bit slidy and unresponsive, and I think aiming would be better if it followed the mouse rather than movement. Otherwise, it's a fun game! The size change was surprising and kind of funny in a surrealistic way. Graphics look pretty nice, and the sounds serve their purpose.
May 4 01:29:35 54m 36s TinyWorldTD ♥ 0 The idea is intriguing, but the game's very difficult. I imagine there is some strategy to win, but I'm not really getting past ~70 seconds (I'm guessing the counter at the end shows the game time in milliseconds?). Still, I like how the game looks, and the basic idea.
May 4 02:27:03 57m 28s MiniAnna Jones! ♥ 1 This is the ideal Ludum Dare game, simple and to the point. Really good tutorial levels, lovely minimalist graphics and a nice soundtrack. Overall a very good game. The only criticism I have would be the movement being a bit unintuitive sometimes, which admittedly is pretty hard to do well in the kind of isometric/tile based system this game is based on. Also, good job on managing to make so many levels during a Ludum Dare, very impressive!
May 4 02:35:17 8m 14s Mr Antibody ♥ 0 A pretty cool idea, and excellent execution. Graphics are cute, sounds are cute, everything about this game is just cute. Except the theme, I suppose.
May 4 02:43:55 8m 38s English Country Garden Simulator ♥ 0 I was excited to see a Godot game for once, but sadly it doesn't run because `./garden-sim: error while loading shared libraries: libXinerama.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`. Installed the libxinerama package and still doesn't work. Running Arch Linux. The game looks fun, but alas, I cannot play it πŸ™
May 13 13:45:21 227h 01m Antagonistic : Hamburger Hill ♥ 1 Pretty entertaining, but could use a bit of tweaking if it weren't for Ludum Dare. Feedback on whether you hit an enemy when you shoot them, and a tutorial that's a bit more interactive (I missed like half of the text because I was distracted). But overall, an enjoyable experience.
May 13 13:55:04 9m 43s Yours ♥ 1 Minimalist, relaxing and an interesting concept. Love it.
May 13 14:21:50 26m 46s Lalao ♥ 1 A very nice experience. Still not sure if I experienced it all though, the end was very ambiguous on it being the end.
May 13 14:31:21 9m 31s Conquery - Conquer The World! ♥ 1 Would've preferred WASD or the arrow keys to move, but otherwise the game was pretty nice. The idea is cool, but the controls (especially on a browser, when moving the mouse outside of the screen can be problematic) hindered my progression a bit. Oh, and the music is very nice!
May 14 15:49:03 25h 17m Angelic Design ♥ 1 What a cool game! I really like the idea of simulating civilizations through the ages, and being a long time EU4 player, I liked the way the map is presented (like, on a canvas). Won on the second try, but needed to exalt everyone to win, so I guess all of the civilizations are now in decline? At least they're not in chaos. One bug I found: when you win, it displays a text "{years} AC: The First Age Survived", I think you missed a replace there πŸ˜‰
May 14 15:59:52 10m 49s Look up ♥ 1 Survived for almost 4 minutes. Excellent work on your first game! The music could've used some percussion and looped a bit better, and the world could've had some more stuff to make the surviving a bit more exciting. But overall, a nice game, if maybe a bit too easy. The difficulty should ramp up a bit quicker, I think. One nice touch I really liked was how I started orbiting at one point and did a few loops around the planet, that was fun 😁
May 14 16:12:55 13m 03s Interstellar Botanist ♥ 0 This looks really, really cool (I wish I was this good at the space ship aesthetic 😁 ), but alas, I'm not on Windows. Friendly request for a Linux build if possible! <3
May 14 16:38:40 25m 45s Lunar Depot 38 ♥ 1 A very cool and weird game. The gameplay feels a bit janky at times, like when you're trying to hit a jumping enemy with a slow firing rate, but that's about my only problem with the actual game. The music and the aesthetic overall are really cool and weird and interesting. Had a bit of a problem launching the game from the itch client, since it doesn't seem to have an executable, but I got it working by running it manually with lΓΆve from the terminal.
May 16 01:07:55 32h 29m 5-Minute Civilization ♥ 1 That was very fun! The graphics are neat, the music creates a very fun and fast paced feel to the game, and the mechanics are pretty solid. Selecting/moving units feels a bit confusing at times, but since the game is so fast paced, it isn't really a problem as long as the units generally go in the general direction of the enemy. And the nukes are very fun. Overall, a really good game, I like it πŸ‘Œ One last thing: might want to rewrite the <title> of the game πŸ˜‰
May 16 01:21:55 14m 00s Legend of the Mountain ♥ 0 Can't play, the game starts pretty weird (fullscreen on both my monitors, showing just the spacey background texture) and throws an exception repeatedly. Specifically, this exception: https://pastebin.com/FhJ04TYU I'm on Arch Linux and have 64-bit OpenJDK version 1.8.0_121. I can say the graphics look pretty nice though, from the screenshots.
May 16 01:42:36 20m 41s Space Ship: Andromeda ♥ 1 I played the game through Wine on Linux, so this might be the cause, but I had one problem: the mouselook didn't seem to be working right, the view shifted weirdly at times and looking around was a bit clunky overall. Since it's a Unity game, I'd like to note that Unity can build for Mac and Linux out-of-the box, even on Personal edition. Just pick the platform from the list in the build menu, and it should be able to pop out a working binary. All that said.. I really liked the game! I explored the spaceship(/station?) a bit before finding the spooky monster or the guns, so it felt especially creepy to find the monster, like it was some alien that had inflitrated the ship or something. I was a bit confused when the monster ate me once right after I respawned, but if anything, that just added to the atmosphere. The narration by a synth voice was also a good choice. Overall, a very impressive entry, considering the amount of assets and the scale of the game. Very well done!
May 16 16:08:32 14h 25m iwantout ♥ 1 "The answer was right in front of my eyes." The best kind of a puzzle. This is a really good entry, it does a single small thing, and it does it really well. "Pixel hunting" is easy since the game consists of very big pixels, combined with the artstyle, and it all fits very well together. Good job!
May 16 16:20:38 12m 06s Can you create a space rocket in less than fifty years? ♥ 1 What a nice game. The art is delightful, sound effects added a nice mood that changed over time (as industrialization took over the world, I imagine), and the gameplay is fun minmaxy goodness. Overall, a very enjoyable game. Creating spaceships with wind power and coffee!
May 16 16:39:45 19m 07s It Shakes the World Apart ♥ 1 What a heartwarming story. Unfortunate that the imaginary friend went away though, I liked her. The art is nice, music feels maybe a bit too cheery compared to the rest of the game, but overall, an enjoyable experience.
May 16 16:55:36 15m 51s Natantes Paradisum ♥ 1 I like the graphics and the general idea of the game. Some progression and maybe more transparency on what different buildings do would be nice. But I do like it, survived through many spooky killer clouds until I just closed the tab. Good entry!
May 17 00:26:13 7h 30m STEEL GEAR CHAOS ♥ 1 Excellent graphics and music, intriguing gameplay. Very hard, couldn't get very far, but the idea is interesting enough. <obligatory "omg va11halla dude" comment>
May 17 00:34:32 8m 19s Chunk World ♥ 1 Since the game is made in Unity, I'd appreciate a Linux version. The editor supports it out of the box, just in case yo u didn't know. Doesn't run very well on Wine, the fonts don't seem to load (and highest graphics settings cause a blackscreen, I'm guessing that's related to DirectX 11 somehow). Looks pretty cool though!
May 17 17:21:42 16h 47m CHaZeS VR ♥ 1 Well that was a fun shooter. Just ran down the streets, never stopping moving or spraying and praying. The explosion effects add a nice over-the-top absurd feel to it, which I like. The tilt-head movement was less nauseating than I would've guessed, but it was also kind of limiting, since you couldn't really strafe. But it's a good trick, and definitely worked for the playstyle I ended up playing the game with. Good game!
May 17 17:34:08 12m 26s A small world VR ♥ 0 The game looks cool, but it doesn't run since api-ms-win-crt-string-l1-1-0.dll is missing. Really unfortunate πŸ™
May 17 17:47:04 12m 56s Merienda: A VR Feeding Experience ♥ 0 I like the graphics and the music. The game itself was a bit confusing, I cruised around on the boat a bit, got a banana and ate it, found something else in the water, but didn't know what to do with it. But the aesthetic (and sitting on the floor!) was very cool, the experience was fun even though I didn't get the objective.
May 19 22:29:59 52h 42m Pineshore Planet ♥ 1 I really like the look of the game, and how the music changes depending on which side of the planet you're looking at. There was a typo in one item's (the empty jar) name, and the ending was a bit abrupt, but otherwise the game is very polished. Really good stuff!
