| Aug 14 09:56:31 | Smelly Corp. | ♥ 5 | Good concept! It took me few minutes to understand how to play, a first in game tutorial could help. I also would have preferred control everything with only keyboard or only mouse. Music is a bit repetitive, accelerating the music rhythm when the tank is more fulfilled could help to make the game more stressful (also adding screen shake or blink for instance to reinforce it).Cool entry, congratz! 🚀 | |
| Aug 14 10:04:00 | 7m 29s | Proto Dash | ♥ 4 | Good fit to the theme & cool ambiance! A bit hard to kill all bots during the third level, however the controls, mechanisms, and feedback are really well balanced. I ❤️ the artwork! Very solid entry, congratz! 🚀 |
| Aug 14 10:12:39 | 8m 39s | Sinking | ♥ 1 | I love the artwork and ambiance! The game is very challenging, the difficulty could increase over time. Controls are a bit stiff so it makes it even harder. As small UX improvement, you could map both WASD keys and arrows on keyboard (cause WASD is not suitable for non qwerty keyboard). A small music with accelerating rhythm could help to make the game more stressful and immersive. You could use a less generic font to make it more integrated in the game. Cool entry & great job, congratz! |
| Aug 14 10:44:31 | 31m 52s | Trial by Fire | ♥ 2 | Good mood! Great fit to the theme, really easy to start to play thanks to small trick like being always turned into the enemy's direction and efficient controls. Then quickly you understand the difficulty of the game and needs to plan your actions, very clever. Feedback and animations are good. Music is ok but does not re-enforce enough the ambiance, could be more stressful. Buttons of the menu could be more integrated into the theme, using a different font and dedicated sprites. It could be more dynamic by using effect like screen shaking when being touched. Great entry and cool overall experience, congratz 🚀 🔥 |
| Aug 14 10:58:32 | 14m 01s | Farms and Polders Tycoon | ♥ 1 | Great entry and cool mood, I ❤️ the graphics! Lovely design and overall ambiance, controls are efficient and easy to understand, the game could be a bit more difficult. I spent a good moment playing your game, congratz for this very well balanced entry! 🚀 (btw, happy to see a game from Normandy! I did my computer science studies in Caen 😉 ) |
| Aug 14 11:12:58 | 14m 26s | TrackBlasters | ♥ 1 | Impressive entry, from the concept to the overall design! Great use of the theme, good increasing difficulty thank to the destroy land mechanics, good controls, feedback and rich content. Special mention for the lovely pixel art, very well polished game, one of the best I seen during the LD42 so far, congratz 👏 👏 👏 |
| Aug 14 11:22:47 | 9m 49s | Byte blasters | ♥ 1 | Congratz for your first entry in Ludum Dare, especially in compo mode! 👏 👏 As you use Unity, you could do a webgl export (cf this doc https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/webgl-building.html) and upload the archive on a free service like https://itch.io/ this way, anybody can try your game using a web browser without having anything to install. |
| Aug 14 18:47:39 | 7h 24m | Cybatron | ♥ 2 | Great concept, good fit with the theme and very polished entry. I like the overall ambiance, the difficulty increases properly thanks to a well-balanced level design. I spent good time playing your game, congratz 👏 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 10:27:13 | 15h 39m | Towel Corp. | ♥ 1 | Didn't managed to fight against aliens either, I hired as much of security guys as I can but they seem inefficient. I really like the ambiance, the asteroid crashing and aliens coming. The situation becomes pretty absurd thanks to the music and what's happening in the same time, I enjoy this weird atmosphere. I ❤️ the hand made pixel art. You could use a different font and sprites for buttons to make them more integrated into the game. Cool entry, good mood, I enjoyed playing your game 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 10:39:12 | 11m 59s | Pig Pile | ♥ 1 | Wooow, super cool entry! Great ambiance thanks to good graphics and relevant music and sounds. You could add more feedback like screen shaking or blinking when shooting or being hurted to make it even more dynamic. You could also maps controls with both WASD and arrows (WASD is not convenient for non qwerty keyboard). Talking about controls, they're a bit stiff, especially, when climbing a ladder, it's always a bit painful to climb and go to left or right. I really like the concept and game play, the entry is well polished. Congratz! 🐷 🔫 |
| Aug 15 11:08:50 | 29m 38s | Pre Alpha Build | ♥ 2 | Great entry, good mood, well polished game on every aspects, concept, graphics, music and overal ambiance. Congratz 👏 |
| Aug 15 11:14:45 | 5m 55s | Space To Breathe | ♥ 1 | Cool concept! Great atmosphere which fits well with the graphics and music, easy to start to play and good increasing difficulty with enemies. Well polished entry, congratz 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 11:24:29 | 9m 44s | No Space for Sympathy | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept and good overall atmosphere. You may use different style and font for buttons and menu in order to make them more "integrated" into the game. Congratz 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 11:34:34 | 10m 05s | Little Planet | ♥ 1 | Cool entry! Seems complex at first view but, in fact, it's easy to start to play and discover mechanisms thanks to a well polished game play and good narrative (like you know when an asteroid is coming and you have time to react). Very solid entry, really enjoyed play your game, congratz! 🌏 🚀 ☀️ |
| Aug 15 11:56:11 | 21m 37s | Grave Heart | ♥ 3 | Really solid entry, cool concept, creative fits with the theme, easy to play and addictive, you did a great job! Overall ambiance is good, game play and mechanics are efficient and I ❤️ the home-made pixel art! Main issue imho is the controls that are sometimes not very accurate, the auto-selection of a tile next to the player is good but sometimes not what you would expect. Anyway, very good entry, one of the best overall I seen so far during LD42, congratz 👏 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 12:22:04 | 25m 53s | GRAVEDIGGER - A final stand | ♥ 2 | Cool entry, really like the concept, the game play and the interpretation for the theme 👍 Difficulty is properly balanced, controls are pretty smooth, and there is quite a lot of content, number of enemies, weapons and levels. Great job! 🚀 |
| Aug 15 12:27:48 | 5m 44s | Overload | ♥ 1 | Pretty rich content and mechanisms, enjoyed the concept and interpretation of the theme. Interesting game play, not always easy to get what are the consequences of your actions, or to decide for a strategy. Great job 👏 |
| Aug 15 12:51:14 | 23m 26s | Adventures of Captain Cleaner | ♥ 3 | Cool concept! Controls could be a bit improved to be more smooth, especially because it's not easy to push enemies, maybe a key for a push action or a different collision system would help. Overall great entry, good graphics, music, game play and mechanism, congratz 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 12:55:59 | 4m 45s | Bolted Explorer | ♥ 1 | Very interesting ambiance and atmosphere. You could improve a bit animation when walking, jumping, shooting and add more feedback (screen shaking or blinking when player shoots or get hurted). Overall solid entry, I like the game play and ambiance, great job 👏 👏 |
| Aug 15 19:12:55 | 6h 16m | Reasonable Claustrophobia | ♥ 1 | What a blast! Great entry on every aspects, from concept to game play, mechanisms, feedback, smooth controls, ambiance with music and sounds and level design with a rich content. Special mention for the lovely pixel art 👍 Definitely my favorite entry of the Ludum Dare 42. Congratz! 🚀 |
