| Apr 24 18:52:32 | Sandwich with Pigeon Meat | ♥ 2 | Love the bizarre concept, the two genres work very well. Tutorialising could have been improved but that's always tricky in the LD. For 72 hours this is a very good game, trying to think when answering between shooting is challenging. The loot boxes felt a little confusing but overall it was great. the only major improvement I can think of would be as less mouse-reliant interface (e.g. mapping the abilities to buttons). Good job! | |
| Apr 24 19:05:23 | 12m 51s | The Devil's Cabbage | ♥ 2 | Very silly context but the gameplay premise was solid and innnovative! Definitely challenging, especially in later levels. Perhaps make it a little clear as to how you win (i.e. going to the money dude). Perhaps some more dynamic and less random AI would benefit the gameplay, followed by slowing them down. However, very good entry, well done! |
| Apr 24 19:33:27 | 28m 04s | Typerider | ♥ 1 | I have determined that the level designer is a sadist. Despite this, it is the best entry I have played yet! Compelling gameplay from a very solid premise, it has an addicting quality that makes it very satisfying to beat a level. Thanks for suggesting it to me on stream, and definitely have ambitions for this game, develop it more and make some money! jump jump jump look I can do it so fast now |
| Apr 24 19:47:42 | 14m 15s | PongCraft | ♥ 1 | A nice amount of content, especially for the compo! Gameplay is pretty nice, and as I said on stream I think it would be right at home on mobile, so do consider extending it! The system is a tad confusing, and the AI is a GOD, but I bet it's loads of fun with friends. Good job! |
| Apr 26 14:41:27 | 42h 53m | FPS - Fugly Puzzle Shooter | ♥ 1 | As others have mentioned, fixing the controls so it was less tank-like would be a great improvement. Graphics are simple and functional, not fugly! However, ramping up the difficulty would greatly improve the experience and make it more compelling. |
| Apr 26 14:54:16 | 12m 49s | Jing & Jang delivery Co. | ♥ 2 | Very solid gameplay loop, it was fun both mechanically and atmospherically, bizarrely enough! I don't even think it needs to be extended by much besides the already mentioned more levels. It's tight, simple, and the music is going to be stuck in my head all day. Great entry! |
| Apr 26 15:12:19 | 18m 03s | The Minstrel of the Kings | ♥ 1 | Really like the general atmosphere and the story! You should definitely develop the world out into a more choesive story, you can't leave us on a cliffhanger like that! It didn't seem to scroll all the way to the top when I clicked options though. The music was nice but as much as I love rhythm games I didn't really get the gist of yours. Would love to see it developed into something more cohesive with the story furthered. Nice! |
| Apr 26 15:36:36 | 24m 17s | Sneak To The Rhythm | ♥ 1 | Brilliant entry, I loved it, whilst being simultaenously terrible at it. Not tapping and having to hold it down was a little confusing, and I think it might be a little bit easier to see what's going on if the cubes were joined together (perhaps isometric might work?). Either way, the music was great, the gameplay challenge (at least for an idiot like me), and the premise amusing and innovative. Good job! I had a good time playing this on stream. |
| Apr 26 15:56:59 | 20m 23s | On The Fly | ♥ 1 | This is, by far and away, and without a shadow of a doubt the single best looking Ludum Dare game I have ever played, you absolutely nailed the aesthetic. The sound design is lovely. The mechanics are simple but effective, and as I mentioned on stream I'm almost glad that you didn't have failure added because I didn't want to see the two adorable birds fail because I am incompetent at games. Very good, nice job guys, and thank you for hanging out with me on stream! |
| Apr 26 16:12:35 | 15m 36s | Tower Deck Furenzy | ♥ 2 | Pretty solid entry! It's tight, it's functional and bug free, and the graphics are cute and appealing. It was sad that it was so short because the few levels there were were too easy in my opinion. As others have stated already, more cards and more levels would really help. And also some more distinction between enemies :) good job! |
| Apr 26 16:48:42 | 36m 07s | Shadowscape | ♥ 1 | Controls were intuitive once I finally understood them, same with the premise, although it's super psychedelic and trippy, and the music really adds to to that atmosphere. I agree with the others in that you should totally make vr version, although I wouldn't play it because I think I'd die. Very nicely done, clever premise. Only major thing I'd improve is perhaps the difficulty scaling and the leniency and/or some tutorialisation, which given it' an LD entry is totally understandable to not have |
| Apr 26 17:12:49 | 24m 07s | Jeff From Accounting | ♥ 5 | Not much I need to say here that I didn't gush about on stream. Gameplay was superbly fun and compelling, and very innovative. It was *gorgeous*, the assets, the lighting, the textures all came together perfectly with the crazy geometry and the music was really fitting, loved the lift music. 10/10 entry, very good job, wouldn't be surprised to see this be the winner. |
| Apr 26 17:36:13 | 23m 24s | Elite Beat Zombygons | ♥ 2 | Loved the entry, always enjoy good rhythm games, and this was definitely that! I was very impressed by just how polished it was! Even a super functional menu! The graphics were simple yet lovely, the rhythm system was super tight and the music and audio was spot on. Killing loads of dudes with the super was very satisfying, and the different weapons were all fun too. Only gripe is the potentially offbeat part I mentioned on stream for the last level. But great job, definitely continue development! |
