| Dec 3 17:08:33 | PinkBalloon | ♥ 1 | Congratulations! | |
| Dec 7 16:00:07 | 94h 51m | Work, please! | ♥ 0 | Is what you had playable? If so this looks interesting and I would happily give it a try. |
| Dec 7 16:04:52 | 4m 45s | Die, Settlers | ♥ 0 | Looks interesting and would have given it a try if you had download links. As a point of interest and for the sake of sharing knowledge, I wrote something that had a lot of trees and repeating sprites a while ago. I found if I implemented some perlin noise (not too hard to find in any language) And adjusted the green/brown of my trees using the noise, I get a less repetitive effect. I also randomly nerfed the height/width of the trees within a margin just randomly which really broke off the repitition. Take a look at my profile header on twitter @TolMera to see what I mean |
| Dec 7 16:39:04 | 34m 12s | Radioactive Cavemen | ♥ 1 | Hey @deathray I played your LD 39 game (Star Hopper Crank), and was really looking forward to seeing what you managed to make for LD40. The games got an interesting feel, though I think it appeals more to peoples aesthetics than actually being mechanics driven. It's an interesting game, that might have been better with polish, but I stuggled to find the fun. I dug a deep hole, dropped a bunch of fires down, then focused on the move command to send mutants to the surface, while everyone else just milled around. Will look forward to your next LD game. |
| Dec 7 16:42:45 | 3m 41s | COINS | ♥ 1 | Interesting, difficulty ramps up very quickly. The first sound was pretty loud, so maybe a background track to help people set their sound level would be nice. Otherwise, a fine litle game! well done |
| Dec 7 16:55:20 | 12m 35s | Rescue the Morons | ♥ 0 | I got 32 across at my best. I liked the little wave animation you put in when the guys actually get to their ship! think this could have been more interesting if it was put in a 'real' setting, like a kids room with boxes and toys to navigate around, instead of being esoteric environment. But that being said, it was still good. The Swinging platform was an excellent trap! nicely done. Overall, a reasonably good game and something I would recomend others try. |
| Dec 7 17:07:19 | 11m 59s | Space Miner Niner | ♥ 0 | Gave it a try, it's nice little game. The physics are nice, very ice skate feeling. Sadly I'm not a good shot with the ship, it turns a little fast for me to be able to aim long shots, so feels like I had to skirt clost to everything to get a shot off at it. I died a couple of times when passing over the planet, or just randomly in space. Think maybe asteroids spawned right on top of me, or were hidden behind the planet. I liked the teleport zones, though I didn't understand them very well. Your Art was very nice, and I would certainly be interested in what you make in the future. |
| Dec 7 17:15:12 | 7m 53s | Snail: Diamond Hunter 2000 | ♥ 1 | Reasonably good game. I like the audio, it suits the environment very well. And the Art was nicely done. The mechanic that had you jump from one surface to another, or start going up/down walls was a bit slugish (lol). Feel like if that had been more polished (which is not easy and I appreciate that) then this woul have been a very playable game. Overall, it's a nice entry and worth trying out! :) well done. |
| Dec 7 17:28:04 | 12m 52s | Feature Creep | ♥ 2 | It was fun to a point. Kinda feels like something I would point someone to when they say 'Hey you can program, could you do X' Then have them play this so they know, Oh.. health isn't just built in. And oh, deaths not built in either! Overall, I like the game :) I would love to see it expanded on! |
| Dec 7 17:58:28 | 30m 24s | The wreck of the Pulstar-VIII | ♥ 0 | That typing sound!!! That Damn typing sound. I was like Garr! click. And I missed a piece of the dialogue! more Garrarrarr... Pressed the "back button" and was like "Wow, that worked, I wen't 'back' from the game, back into the dialogue!" If that was not a 'feature' you built in, then it's a damn good bug! :) Got pretty close to the goal, I was left with the Engineer and the cook, kinda felt like they both deserved to live more than me as Capitain. |
| Dec 7 18:08:00 | 9m 32s | Didgeribug in da place ! | ♥ 0 | Interesting, a bit difficult to get your head around, but worth trying out. I always enjoy trying amoeba games. |
| Dec 7 18:16:00 | 8m 00s | Space Crash | ♥ 1 | Nice array of audio effects Good mechanic where the more ships you collect against your shield, the more they drag your speed and manuverability down. Also increases your surface area, making it easy to collect more against you. Eventually they pushed me off the back of the screen. Interesting game, I like the take on the Theme. Feels like something that would have done well from some procedural generation of the map, and a 'full screen' where I could have played with more area. Overall, I really enjoyed this. Well done! :) |
| Dec 7 18:33:32 | 17m 32s | Type Them Down | ♥ 1 | Even though I'm a professional programmer, spend at minimum 8 hours a day typing, and have been at a computer daily for most of my life. I still struggle with these games! they are fun :) they are challenging. I don't really get the tie in to the theme. I would get it if hitting a key didn't kill that letter on all the zombies. so you had to be faster, get faster. but otherwise the link is a bit weak sorry to say. Overall, a nice entry for the LD40 :) nicely done! |
| Dec 8 17:17:26 | 22h 43m | Snaketris | ♥ 0 | Good Game! Totally new take on something old :) nice |
| Dec 8 17:32:28 | 15m 02s | Dwarf Bowl XXXX | ♥ 0 | Not a bad little game, took a few minutes to figure out the mechanics, I ended up sitting in one corner waiting for the goblins to pile up, then knocking a huge number off the map with one swing. (That was fun :)) |
| Dec 8 17:40:31 | 8m 03s | Defense of the Cacatua Fountain | ♥ 0 | I tried the game, but the "j" key didn't appear to do anything. Seemed like a nice idea for a game You should also package your game into 1 zip file, it was difficult to get running because I had to download the two files, which in the process ended up getting nested. More difficult than it should have been. |
| Dec 8 17:46:36 | 6m 05s | Derelict | ♥ 0 | Gave it a try, it animated smoothly though I kept getting stuck on the edges of walls, and when trying to jump uphill I would end up leaping backwards? Seems like it would be an interesting puzzel/explore game with a little more development. |
| Dec 8 17:52:41 | 6m 05s | Supernova | ♥ 0 | Pretty good little game, gave it a few plays, couldn't get much over about 7 'saves' (even though we all died?) Fun and difficult. Very well done! |
| Dec 8 17:58:06 | 5m 25s | Cube Wars (My First Game) | ♥ 0 | It's a nicely done little game. Smooth Animation, turrets that all act independently. 'real' bullets that seem to have a small particle effect. Pretty good over all. Though, oh for the love of Mercy that music! haha :) Very nice for a first LD game, congrats |
| Dec 8 18:08:39 | 10m 33s | SCRAMBLED | ♥ 1 | Was Interesting. The Graphics are nice, the sounds for the person walking and jumping were there. Movement was a bit fast but manageable. Didn't get any depth feedback from the environment so using the polearm was a bit random. Didn't actually interact with anything? Found the alter and though "Let me check the controls" Then 4 kids beat me up :P |
| Dec 8 18:17:11 | 8m 32s | Drill Run | ♥ 0 | This was a really nice game! Smooth, good sound effects (I liked how the pitch between gems). Difficulty jumped a bit too quickly, I would have liked to have been able to play for longer and dodge more. Nice, very nice! |
| Dec 8 18:25:22 | 8m 11s | You cry but no one responds | ♥ 1 | Feels like you're playing the monster. Not a nice feeling. Game wise, this has a reasonably good and responsive interface. Theres obviously some story that's going on, not sure how deep you need to dive into this before the story becomes apparent. It's interesting mechanically. |
| Dec 8 19:26:02 | 1h 00m | LORD BASKETBALL | ♥ 1 | Pretty good game. I like how you tied it in with the theme! :) |
| Dec 8 19:27:26 | 1m 24s | Speed Date Shuffle | ♥ 0 | Pretty good. Hard to figure out the mechanics at the beginning. Nice entry over all. |
| Dec 9 16:53:13 | 21h 25m | Finally done :D | ♥ 4 | I installed this game, but it want's odd network access tools. And the "Game Maker" logo it shows you when it starts, well... it's not from any recent version of Game Maker. This 'feels' very... uncomfortable to install. I can't say anything definitive, but it makes me uncomfortable |
| Dec 9 17:57:22 | 1h 04m | Squire | ♥ 2 | Nice enough. I think upping the players speed a little would make it more fun, because keeping the donkey close slows you down anyway. Pretty good over all. The Graphics are nice, controls are smooth. I got Donkey stuck behind a tree once, but figured out how to coax him back. |
| Dec 9 18:19:21 | 21m 59s | Total Pollination | ♥ 0 | Good enough for me to play it a couple of times, I like that you have the Damage Triangle, nicely animated mobs. Good tie in to the theme. Overall quite well done :) |
| Dec 9 18:43:59 | 24m 38s | My Greedy Dog Steve | ♥ 2 | Pretty cool. I like the Alpha Bear! Red Glowing Eyes! :) |
| Dec 9 20:26:27 | 1h 42m | BLOK'D | ♥ 1 | Pretty good, I don't know what caused me ot get more colours, but it was cool and evenutally I got cornered :) |
| Dec 9 20:28:54 | 2m 27s | Phool | ♥ 1 | Pretty cool! enjoyed it :) was it just me or did the music get faster? |
| Dec 9 20:54:23 | 25m 29s | Broken Allies | ♥ 1 | Interesting game, plays nicely though it's a bit hard to get started |
| Dec 10 17:01:32 | 20h 07m | A Platformer for Ants | ♥ 1 | Damn, thats a good game |
