| May 2 09:54:15 | Godspeed Mankind | ♥ 1 | Nice idea and with a few more building types adding to the challenge of resource management I can see this turning into a pretty addictive game. Good work for your first entry! | |
| May 2 10:08:12 | 13m 57s | Den | ♥ 2 | Like a combination of Lemmiwinks and The Last Guardian. I was very impressed with the art and atmosphere. This has a lot of potential for a great atmospheric puzzle game and I would love to see more. Like the other players I got stuck at the door too. I tried making something happen to the controls near the door but I couldn't figure it out unfortunately but that doesn't take away from the very interesting concept you guys have going here. Nice work! |
| May 2 10:41:44 | 33m 32s | Smell World | ♥ 1 | Nice and pleasant to play with the cheery music and art. I liked the end of the level image in particular. I found it a bit easy with the arrow telling me where to go though. Overall a nice effort though and probably played more mazes than I expected to. Ha! |
| May 2 11:10:33 | 28m 49s | Toy Racer | ♥ 1 | Yeah! Finished 5th on the online leaderboard! Fun little game. The graphics are excellent, the controls are a bit weird (I played original version) but I got the hang of it and absolutely smashed it in the second lap. Great work with this one! |
| May 2 11:43:35 | 33m 02s | It's a Small World | ♥ 1 | First couple of levels were kinda boring. With 2 screens I found it really fun but 4 screens? Cripes man! These people above me saying their keyboard didn't support it, my brain didn't support it! I had to give up I'm afraid but was intrigued by the story. I liked the way the guy on the rocks kept glitching. I also liked the walk cycle but wasn't too keen on the music. Interesting game though. |
| May 2 12:27:11 | 43m 36s | SUPER CELL | ♥ 0 | The graphics are nice and I love the chiptune but without collisions or dying it didn't feel particularly fun. With those enabled I think it would be fun though. |
| May 2 12:56:54 | 29m 43s | GOD SAVE THE QUEEN | ♥ 1 | Wow. So much litter in New York! Amazing graphics and good physics. Felt like things sometimes got caught on the edge of the ant hill and made it harder to knock things in than necessary but that might just be me. Still fun though and nice sense of scale with the enormous legs! |
| May 3 10:59:57 | 22h 03m | Ant Detective | ♥ 2 | Great stuff! You made me laugh out loud a few times, starting with the moustache on the captain and then several more times throughout. Good work voicing all the characters. We did the same in our game but we didn't have half the dialogue, you did well getting it all done in time and of a decent quality. Graphics were pretty good though his left hand was really ugly if the camera got too close so I've docked you points for that (just kidding!). I liked the shooting too, basic but felt good and I like the rag doll effect, it reminded me of the old Hitman games. Excellent work overall. Could easily see this as an episodic series with a bit more depth. |
| May 3 11:22:30 | 22m 33s | Pixel Town | ♥ 2 | I really enjoyed this game. Nice cohesion with the art, music and gameplay. It feels like a proper game already and simply needs a bit more of everything. It kinda reminds me of a Kairosoft game in that it's fairly simple but really addictive. You should definitely continue working on it! |
| May 3 12:32:02 | 1h 09m | The Nedludd Club | ♥ 1 | Wow, nice work! I didn't have the suspect in time but I was close. I'm gonna go back for more later, I refuse to watch the walkthrough, haha. The Atari style made me feel nostalgic and story was intriguing. Awesome work for such a long game in such a short time! |
| May 3 12:42:34 | 10m 32s | Naziverse | ♥ 1 | Graphics and audio are excellent but the game is way too hard for me. It felt like there just wasn't enough time between bullets. Maybe I would have done better with a game pad but I'm rubbish at difficult games like this anyway! Tweak the enemy fire rate or wait till they are on screen to start firing then I think this could be a pretty sweet game. Again the visuals are top notch, particularly the little animations. |
| May 4 09:51:25 | 21h 08m | Ascension | ♥ 1 | Short and sweet but the graphics and audio are very nice. Pretty fun too but hit detection seemed a bit funny with the enemies taking 2 shots then randomly disappearing. Good work though, it's very pretty. |
| May 4 10:08:34 | 17m 09s | Fancy meeting you here | ♥ 1 | Haha. This game was pretty ridiculous, in a good way! Some of the random dialogue killed me. It felt a bit confusing at fist but I went back to read the instructions and had more fun the second time. I loved all the art and the characters were all people I'd hate to get stuck in a conversation with. Nice work on a strange idea! |
| May 4 10:21:58 | 13m 24s | Headspace | ♥ 2 | Interesting look and feel with moody music. It feels like the game is just getting started and could turn into something special but it never really takes off. I'd like to see what else you might have had planned given more time cause I'm definitely intrigued. |
| May 4 10:41:05 | 19m 07s | Fleje World | ♥ 1 | I knew my years of playing Thrust on the C64 would pay off! This was a lot of fun. It took me ages to beat the black planet but got there in the end. Great work on this. Most fun I've had so far! |
| May 8 11:56:27 | 97h 15m | The World Outside | ♥ 2 | I have similar sentiments as the other comments. The game looks amazing and I really love the character design. I played it more like a stealth game and out ninja'd the ninjas as the combat didn't feel quite right and I kept dying. I'm sure getting hit detection and feedback perfect in 3 days is impossible as well as the outstanding graphics so I'm glad I did have the option of avoiding battles. You have the basics down though and with some story, nice music and a bit more game play you would have quite a cute little adventure game here. Great work on the aspects you did manage to finish. |
| May 8 12:17:48 | 21m 21s | Small World Sim | ♥ 0 | This is a pretty good game with some nice touches such as the day and night cycle and spinning the globe, fits perfectly with the theme. I enjoyed the music too. I found it a bit confusing with the goals and the UI would obscure the world sometimes when I wanted to place buildings. All the text on screen was overwhelming too, 2 days had passed before I had read it all haha. I still enjoyed myself though. I'm always impressed when people make these kinds of games for LD. |
| May 8 12:53:01 | 35m 13s | rovR | ♥ 2 | The planets made me laugh, Uranus' mouth looking like, well, you know. haha. The music was nice too. The game play though was really solid, I had a lot of fun with this. Some stages were pretty tricky. I kept trying to just get a tiny bit of gravitational pull from a baby and sling shot to the planet for an amazing trick shot but I never pulled it off, but had a lot of fun trying. I think you have a really fun idea here. |
| May 8 13:00:34 | 7m 33s | Hair Protector | ♥ 0 | This game made me laugh out loud at the stupid concept and the character looks straight out of a Viz comic. It's a good game too but as you know, it is too hard, impossible sometimes too, even for my cat like reflexes! You did well for 2 days though and I like that the character idle animation at the beginning. I love Ludum Dare for absolutely bonkers games like this. Nice work, aside from difficulty. |
| May 8 13:10:41 | 10m 07s | Pond of Doom | ♥ 2 | Haha. Pretty funny. I liked when my duck came back around the other side of the globe, that background did look photo realistic as well. Computers have come so far! I think our duck should have laser beams for eyes though, I wanted to fight back after a while. |
| May 8 13:23:51 | 13m 10s | Dispyria | ♥ 0 | Wow. You've got a lot of polished work here, I'm really impressed. Looks like a Spectrum game on steroids with tight NES gameplay. I really enjoyed it playing it, it felt like a proper game. I did have a bug with my Xbox 360 controller that made my character keep trying to go right, it might be my controller though, it's old and dusty. I still continued playing despite the hindrance so the game must be good! Awesome work! Oh, and music was great too! But sound effects need turning down a bit. |
| May 8 13:39:49 | 15m 58s | Chroma | ♥ 3 | Well, this was awesome and I was gutted when it was over. I wanted more! The guns felt good, the enemies were fun to kill, I enjoyed exploring the levels. The music was good especially the first level, reminded me of early Aphex Twin, was really digging it. My only criticism would be that some of the room transitions didn't put me on the next screen where I expected and by the time I found myself I'd been shot several times. This was mostly apparent on the first level as the second level didn't seem to have as many enemies shooting as soon as you walked into the room. Amazing entry though. Really enjoyed it. 5 stars! |
| May 8 23:06:16 | 9h 26m | Daylight | ♥ 1 | Phew. That was just too hard for me I'm afraid and I didn't get very far at all. The character just moved too fast. It looked so cute and the mellow music deceived me into thinking it was going to be a sweet gentle platformer but no it's hard as nails! Haha. Really nice minimal aesthetic, I'm disappointed I couldn't get further to see more. |
| May 8 23:24:00 | 17m 44s | Pilgrim | ♥ 1 | Nice presentation but a little slow to control. I would have been just as happy walking around enjoying the story in your moody world over platforming. Keep working in this visual style, it looks cool. |
| May 9 10:48:14 | 11h 24m | RoboLand | ♥ 1 | Hi. I've tried to play your game on Chrome, Firefox and Edge and I get a black screen once you load the levels. Not sure if it's my pc but this is the first game it's happened to. I haven't scored you yet though. |
| May 9 10:59:53 | 11m 39s | Djinn Duel | ♥ 1 | I found this a little bit confusing to be honest but I got the gist in the end, I was rubbish at it though, haha. I think it could be more fun in 2 player, like a weird version of Battleships. Nice character art but shame there are no sounds. |
| May 9 11:44:08 | 44m 15s | No Minor Task: Party of a Lifetime | ♥ 1 | I really like the style and some of the humour was pretty funny. I found the controls and bit clunky in the arcade section and the enemies sometimes hard to spot, it was all a bit chaotic but has the potential to be a lot of fun with tighter controls. I loved how your text appears, especially during the intro. I'd definitely pursue something bigger in this style with more minigames in between story beats. The best aspect was the music, went from c64, to jazz, to megadrive/arcade. Loved it. Great work to the composer, bass was sexy during the cutscenes! |
| May 9 11:53:48 | 9m 40s | InDepth-VirusOutbreak | ♥ 0 | Not bad, reminds me of Spore a little bit. The controls felt a big slow but it was still fun for a while. I think a lot of these kinds of games really need some damage sound effects or visual cues so it's more obvious I'm doing something. The graphics were nice with nice character designs. I liked the backstory too. Nice first team effort. |
| May 9 12:01:19 | 7m 31s | Legends Of Block | ♥ 1 | This was really fun! I loved the simple graphics, it made me think a multiplayer game like this back on the C64 or Atari would be have been awesome! The controls were responsive, I liked how the bullets were limited and how it turned into a bullet hell game if you didn't beat the other guys up quick enough. Really great first Ludum Dare entry. Look forward to seeing what you have for LD39. |
| May 9 12:25:39 | 24m 20s | A Rat's Story | ♥ 0 | For some reason when I went full screen my screen went black and I couldn't recover from it, I had to reboot my pc. But onto the game... Loved the art and the sound effects. Nice detail on the different sound effects when they step on the vent. I found it maybe a little too easy and was expecting some more story. I saw the name and the art and got ready for a beautiful pixel art story starring a rat, but I got a beautiful pixel art avoid feet simulator game about a rat. Amazing work for 2 days though even if it wasn't Ratatouie 2. |
| May 10 11:30:16 | 23h 04m | Rock-E | ♥ 0 | Well, this game was bonkers, haha. Made me laugh a good few times. The voice overs were a bit mixed, some really quiet some really loud but they definitely added to the experience. Graphics were a bit messy but I love the way you guys made everything animate. Nice work! |
| May 10 20:32:25 | 9h 02m | Flat Earths! | ♥ 3 | Interesting idea with the gravity but for me it was just too hectic and I kept losing track of my character. Really nice style throughout, the title screen looked like a proper game, loved the scanlines too. Music was pretty awesome, shame there wasn't any during the gameplay. A nicely presented game but too hectic for my old eyes. Good work. |
| May 10 20:40:33 | 8m 08s | Wandering Planet | ♥ 0 | Pretty fun. I've been playing Osmos in bed lately, this had a similar vibe, even down to the relaxing music. I enjoyed collecting the planets but the controls seemed a bit unresponsive at time. With smoother controls and more challenges I think this could be a fun little title. Nice work. |
| May 10 20:55:25 | 14m 52s | Until the End | ♥ 1 | Nice take on the theme. I like the simple graphics and style but it wasn't that much fun but then I guess that was the point and you've succeeded in capturing the mundane aspect of prison life. There should have been an option to bribe the guards for a carton of smokes. Good job on getting so much done in time too. |
| May 11 21:48:16 | 24h 52m | Infinite Planet | ♥ 1 | Simple but very polished and fun! I liked the aesthetics on the whole, nice changing of colours and zoom level and the music set the mood. It did make me feel a bit dizzy by about level 6 though, haha. Good job on a well made game. |
| May 11 21:57:47 | 9m 31s | TerminAnt | ♥ 1 | Well, this was pretty damn fun. I was disappointed when it finished, although the platforming at the end was making me tear my hair out, haha. It had a very retro feel to it even down to the sound effects, which was cool. Nice effort! |
| May 11 22:05:48 | 8m 01s | Small World Collider | ♥ 0 | I used to really enjoy these kinds of games back as a kid. I like the idea of the planets as balls but I felt the paddles were a little too unresponsive for me or maybe it was just the browser being funny. It was still fun to play for a little while as these games usually are. |
