Dec 4 19:41:12		Freedom For Ball	♥ 1	RIght clicking to move is super uncomfortable on a trackpad. It was also hard to distinguish between the walls and floor at certain angles.
Dec 4 19:47:18	6m 06s	Munchy Cell	♥ 0	The control scheme is a little frustrating since you can't move diagonally. I liked the idea but I just got lost in space after while and gave up.
Dec 4 19:54:13	6m 55s	Usagi Story	♥ 1	Really nice work! It was super easy to understand the game and it fits the theme really well. I liked the graphics and sound effects as well. My only complaint is that it took a really long time before the game was challenging at all.
Dec 4 19:59:56	5m 43s	Snèèz!	♥ 1	Really nice work. It look like a complete game and it's a solid concept! I wish the gameplay was a little more exciting butI loved the sound effects and graphics.
Dec 4 20:03:22	3m 26s	Panic at the Zoo	♥ 0	At first I thought I had to run away from the people chasing you and that was kind of fun. But then I realized nothing actually happens when you touch them. It seems like there isn't really any gameplay and they just follow you around? Definitely fits the theme tho!
Dec 4 20:13:54	10m 32s	Earl's Quest	♥ 1	My biggest critiques are that the map is way too large and that I didn't see how the game was becoming more difficult by collecting coins. I absolutely loved the humor, graphics, and soundtrack tho. Seems like a very impressive amount done in 48 hours!
Dec 4 20:20:37	6m 43s	Video Games	♥ 4	This game is amazing! 5 stars all around for sure. Great soundtrack, clean visuals, and it fits the theme really well. The leaderboard makes me want to play even more and the tutorial is definitely necessary! Great work!
Dec 4 20:30:49	10m 12s	Parent Simulator	♥ 0	Really great work! I love the randomized pitches cuz my babies all ended up having super deep voices that were cracking me up. Great audio and visuals and it fits the theme really well. It kinda reminds me of my game that's with chickens instead of babies: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/too-many-chooks
Dec 4 20:36:33	5m 44s	Plastic	♥ 1	I thought it was a lovely little game! I love the simplicty of it and dragging around shapes was fun. It almost started getting repetitive before you introduced the little black repulsion thingys so great work there! My only complaint is that there isn't a timer or anything that can prevent you from completing a level.
Dec 4 21:35:12	58m 39s	Runaway Corruption	♥ 1	Really nice work. It's very fast and fun to play. :)
Dec 4 21:38:52	3m 40s	The Weissman Challenge	♥ 2	I really liked the style of this game! I wish the sentences were randomly generated for more replay ability tho.
Dec 4 21:42:36	3m 44s	CPU Heater	♥ 1	I really liked the sounds and the ship looks cool! I wasn't a big fan of the controls since they felt really slippery.
Dec 4 23:27:31	1h 44m	Greedy Merchants	♥ 1	Great work with the AI! The game feels very complete and it fits the theme well.
Dec 5 03:20:13	3h 52m	The Daily Grind	♥ 3	Nice idea. I wasn't really sure how to create the various drinks. I feel like some sort of tutorial or at least diagram for making the drinks would be helpful.
Dec 5 03:33:58	13m 45s	Infinite Desktop Icons	♥ 2	It becomes pretty repetitive a bit too soon but otherwise great work.
Dec 5 03:37:09	3m 11s	Zombie Game	♥ 0	Super impressive that you made a multiplayer game! It felt very unpolished though and nobody else was playing while I was on.
Dec 5 03:42:01	4m 52s	Conversations	♥ 3	I had absolutely no idea what was going on. But it was a cool idea and I really enjoyed the audio and atmosphere!
Dec 5 03:44:31	2m 30s	Awfultown	♥ 3	I liked how quickly it became challenging and it fits the theme very well. The sound effects got way too repetitive and annoying for my taste. Nice work overall!
Dec 5 03:47:02	2m 31s	Squirrel Puncher 4000!	♥ 2	Overall I really liked it. I definitely didn't have the patience to read all that text at the start. The music is fantastic!
Dec 5 14:17:16	10h 30m	Surviving Christmas	♥ 0	Nice work! Love the theme!
Dec 5 18:06:12	3h 48m	Human Rises	♥ 2	Overall I really like the idea! I think it's just too much information being thrown at the player right from the start and it might be beneficial to introduce mechanics/concepts gradually so that players can learn. I love this concept though!
Dec 5 18:12:37	6m 25s	SiniS is not in Space	♥ 1	Really nice job getting the online leaderboard functionality to work in such a small amount of time! I wasn't a big fan of the gameplay itself but I really love the idea that you're setting how challenging the levels are for yourself. Nice work!
Dec 5 18:15:54	3m 17s	SHURIKA!	♥ 1	Super original idea. I was just playing by myself and using the second player as a decoy which worked pretty well. :) And you're definitely getting 5 stars on humor for the shuri-can/shuri-can't pun.
Dec 5 18:19:09	3m 15s	Sänka Viking - A Viking Warship Simulator	♥ 1	It was very fun to play! My biggest complaint is that once I started landing shots I barely had to adjust at all to keep hitting the same spot which made it pretty easy. But I really love the concept and I think it fits the theme really well!
Dec 5 19:33:11	1h 14m	...	♥ 1	I love it! The little chick noises are great and the movement/how they follow you is well done. Great work! Keep spreading the good chook!
Dec 6 01:04:33	5h 31m	Don't Grow Ego	♥ 1	Really cool! I love the simplicity of the overall design.
Dec 6 01:07:22	2m 49s	A Spark of Light	♥ 1	Very cool! I liked how the level shrinks in on you like that.
Dec 6 01:15:22	8m 00s	Chicken Tender	♥ 1	I absolutely loved this game! The hungry chicken noises were definitely my favorite. This is a very charming game and the gameplay is really fun! I too made a game inspired by my pet chickens if you wanna check it out: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/too-many-chooks
Dec 6 01:19:19	3m 57s	Glutton's Heaven	♥ 2	It's very difficult! Great concept tho. Also I'll say that I really despise scrolling text that you can't speed up. It might be a good idea to implement functionality so that when the player hits space it displays the full text instead of skipping to the next one. Nice work!
Dec 6 14:34:33	13h 15m	Scavenger	♥ 2	I really like the movement system but I had one interaction that felt really off to me. I moved onto the exit expecting to end the level but then a mummy moved to the same spot and killed me. I dunno if that's intentional but I felt like I should've escaped if I got there first. Great audio and visuals!
Dec 6 14:37:23	2m 50s	Chaparrito's Adventure	♥ 0	I was very sad that there weren't more bosses to fight because it ended way too quickly for me! Nice little game.
Dec 6 15:24:22	46m 59s	Grammar Dystopia	♥ 3	Really great work! I love the idle action of the chef tapping on the counter and the game over scene. Very clever game!
Dec 6 15:30:14	5m 52s	Six	♥ 1	Really nice puzzle game! I absolutely loved the sound design particularly for the opening cutscene.
Dec 6 15:33:29	3m 15s	Make Ludum Dare Great Again	♥ 3	Very funny game. I really love all of the animations and how clear it is when people are slowing down and need coffee. Love the idea!
Dec 6 15:37:06	3m 37s	Scrooge the Cat	♥ 1	Very nice game! I love the concept of avoiding coins and giving them to others since it's very counter to what most games do. Graphics and audio were great and it felt like a nice complete little game.
Dec 6 18:16:38	2h 39m	Stacks O' Cats	♥ 1	Very cute game! I love their walking animations and the entire concept of the game. My only complaint is that I felt like there was too much time in between cats appearing which made the game really slow.
Dec 11 21:38:29	123h 21m	Sunburn	♥ 0	Love it! Great take on the theme and it's a very charming game. Graphics are great.
Dec 11 21:42:01	3m 32s	Kittie Reaper: A Depressed Cat Tale	♥ 1	Very charming! I love the concept. The one part that I really didn't understand is why the animals go towards you when you get close. It makes sense mechanically to make the game more challenging but why do the little piggies wanna get reaped? :(
Dec 11 21:45:48	3m 47s	Armed Descent	♥ 1	Really nice work! I really appreciate how stray bullets can destroy the file cabinets.
Dec 11 21:48:22	2m 34s	Swift Thief	♥ 1	Very interesting! I love the extending hand and how it's used in the main menu screen!
Dec 11 21:51:06	2m 44s	Project Vamparty	♥ 2	Nice work! It feels mostly complete and it's fun for a few minutes!
Dec 11 21:54:31	3m 25s	Doug Bones and the Cursed Lava Lamps	♥ 0	The controls are a bit rough and I couldn't find a way to get passed level 2 since the platform was too high up. But I really really love the curse mechanic, the shooty sounds, and the colorful graphics!
Dec 11 22:00:33	6m 02s	Kitchen Things	♥ 1	It was extremely challenging and I saw a ton of upset customers but I loved it! I especially love all of the cool looking customers and their expressions. My biggest complaint is that the "tutorial" is here on this page instead of actually in the game. Great work overall!
Dec 13 01:33:19	27h 32m	Too Much Slime!	♥ 0	Very neat! I love the concept and how you have to think about your size a bit. The text and UI in general is a bit sloppy in my opinion but my biggest complaint is that it was so short! Nice entry.
Dec 13 01:40:01	6m 42s	Sofra	♥ 1	Really well done! I love the sound and graphics and I think the gameplay and use of the theme is spot on!
Dec 13 01:44:07	4m 06s	To the glory of the great North Korea	♥ 1	Nice work. As you said, it's a pretty standard and predictable game that fits the theme pretty well. My biggest complaint is that I feel like the gameplay would be more clear and manageable if it all fit onto one screen or if you could scroll with the arrow keys instead.
Dec 13 01:49:12	5m 05s	Rebel Call	♥ 2	The opening animation is awesome! I'm digging the minimalist look as well. I'm not a fan of the mechanic where you have to keep going back to citizens to re-alert them or risk game over. That made it feel more tedious to me but overall great game!
Dec 13 02:08:04	18m 52s	The Exalted	♥ 1	Really well done! Fits the theme super well and it's a unique idea! I love the minimalist graphics as well and the tight hitboxes. It was very fun just dodging all the bullets.
Dec 13 02:14:47	6m 43s	Sanguinite	♥ 1	Really impressive for 48 hours! The graphics and sounds are great and the gameplay seems very polished. Seriously great work!
Dec 13 15:19:38	13h 04m	TetrisTank	♥ 1	Really cool! I love the combination of tetris and tower defense. Great execution.
Dec 13 15:21:25	1m 47s	Boiler Room Defense	♥ 0	Nice work. It's a pretty simple idea but very well executed. Very hectic and fast-paced!
Dec 13 15:26:39	5m 14s	High Protein Diet Dungeon	♥ 1	Really nice work! I really like the movement mechanic since it's something that I haven't seen all that often. I do think it takes way too many bullets to defeat the enemies but otherwise everything works really well!
Dec 14 04:08:53	12h 42m	Shifting Dreamscape	♥ 0	Very cool! I love the way that the environment changes depending on the dream state. I did encounter a game-breaking bug where I jumped and then took a nap and was thus trapped inside of one of the platforms. I tried sleeping more to get out of it but the platform wouldn't disappear.
Dec 14 04:23:41	14m 48s	Cardhoard	♥ 1	Really impressive work! I love how simple it is and how easily you can pick it up and play. It feels very polished and well contained, the graphics are great, and the audio is very fitting. This is a fantastic entry. :) The only complaint that I have is that the controls aren't very intuitive. I think arrow keys might make the game a bit easier to navigate.
Dec 16 02:00:20	45h 36m	Leaf Me Alone	♥ 0	I love the color of the leaves. It was very frustrating attempting to rake leaves off of the screen since a lot of the time they'd end up slipping underneath the rake. I also thought it was a bit slow but overall nice work.
Dec 17 18:23:12	40h 22m	Mister President	♥ 1	My biggest complaint is that I didn't really understand what was going on. When I selected the choices each month I didn't see a change in money and I had no idea how it was impacting the percentages. Aside from that though, I really love this concept and I definitely think that with more time you could flesh this game out into something really really amazing. Great work for a short time and I'd love to see more!
Dec 20 22:52:06	76h 28m	The Ol' Flower Shop	♥ 1	Clever little game! I was a bit confused as to why avoiding apples lost you hearts since I understood that you're meant to avoid healthy things. The graphics are very charming!
Dec 20 22:55:53	3m 47s	人気があるよ！（~Be popular!）	♥ 0	I ended up getting stuck between some groupies which meant I could no longer play. The movement in general was a bit clunky in my opinion. I really love the concept though and it fits great with the theme. I also thought the music was a bit jarring how it restarts after a delay at the start of each level.
Dec 20 23:02:36	6m 43s	Factory Panic	♥ 1	Overall great work! It took me forever to realize that the ores had to be delivered in the order that they're shown but everything works well, sounds good, and looks great!
Dec 20 23:08:10	5m 34s	SHROOOMS	♥ 0	This is a fantastic entry! I think this could easily be made into a full fledged arcade-style game. It started to get extremely hectic with all of the mushrooms coming at me and I love that they don't stop even after they've killed you. My biggest complaint is that it took me forever to figure out the button to eat the mushrooms since it says "A" over them.
Dec 20 23:14:38	6m 28s	Astrofarmer	♥ 2	This is a very cute game! I think it works really well although I wasn't really sure if there was anything in particular causing the creatures to become enraged. The tooltips were very useful and I enjoyed how quick the game is paced.
Dec 20 23:16:26	1m 48s	Ed's City	♥ 1	Unfortunately I just got game over as soon as somebody spawns every time. I couldn't build houses or anything.
Dec 20 23:19:58	3m 32s	Neon Hell	♥ 1	Shift isn't ideal for a button you're pressing so often. The graphics and sound effects are fantastic!
Dec 20 23:20:47	49s	LD40 - SirPumpy	♥ 1	Graphics are fantastic!
Dec 20 23:27:29	6m 42s	Cherry Creek	♥ 2	I absolutely love it! The atmosphere is super relaxing and pleasant. I love the music and the subtle sound effects as well as the brief animations when trees are connected/disconnected from water. Really fantastic work!
