May 3 22:23:18 Bet Life ♥ 1 I think this can be made into a good game with some work. In level 1 I can just stand in the top left corner to win. Level 2 never seems to progress, is that a bug?
May 3 22:32:02 8m 44s Cyborg Highway ♥ 1 Great concept! Simple but original. I think this would benefit from a clearer graphical representation. I found following the player and enemies is an eye strain. For example, make them bigger and contrast better with the cars.
May 3 23:10:42 38m 40s Deep Space Outpost ♥ 0 Intriguing game, i played it for quite some time to figure out the rules. However since it seems incomplete and buggy, it's hard to tell what's what. So I hope you will continue developing it! When I speed up time, income goes down, when I slow it down, it goes up. I never found if the tubes and power lines did anything, or what the headquarters and radio towers are supposed to do.
May 3 23:52:10 41m 28s 24 hours ♥ 1 Fun concept, I enjoyed trying to up all the items, and seeing what new ones appear. I think I saw everything around age 24, as nothing more happened from then on. It would be great if the game had goals, like get a certain number of points on an item in a certain amount of time. That would give it more replayability.
May 4 08:52:15 9h 00m 100 leaves ♥ 1 Great music, maybe some sound fx would have been nice too. Graphical style is nicely original, maybe adding some animations and particles would have made it look more finished. Game idea is interesting, but I found myself just using the bottom branch. Oh, I see you planned to add flying guys as well :-) Why are the controls X/Y reversed? It makes the game more frustrating.
May 4 09:14:42 22m 27s Abduct Me! ♥ 2 That's a good looking game! The controls can be improved though. There is a delay in the abduction, which makes the game feel unresponsive. Also, at the start position I can only move right, until I reach a certain position, which is confusing.
May 4 18:39:27 9h 24m Blockson: My Life as a Cryptocurrency ♥ 0 Great game! Very addictive. I didn't get any sound though. I got stuck at some point though, I got the maximum # of ethereum miners possible with the electrical and network sockets (12) and I couldn't pass the level with think rate 700Mhz. See pic below. blockson_stuck.png
May 4 22:07:03 3h 27m Bullet Souls ♥ 0 Fun space shooter! I think the lives vs powerups tradeoff works well. It would be even nicer if the enemies had different movement patterns.
May 4 22:45:33 38m 30s Bunny Powered Money Machine ♥ 0 Game looks and sounds great! I found it quite impossible to avoid the balls though.
May 5 07:38:07 8h 52m Blob World ♥ 1 Very innovative! It's great you have a lot of enemy types too. Such a novel game is probably hard to balance though, I'm looking forward to an update. A problem in the beginning is that spawning seemed unresponsive. Later I figured out that you can only spawn in a free spot, so I learned to move while spawning. It still isn't always clear to me when I can spawn and when I can't. Clearer (audio) feedback would help here.
May 6 16:37:51 32h 59m Deep Space Prospector ♥ 0 Polished and good-looking entry! I love the particle effects. I did find movement a little slow and frustrating. I found myself bouncing around the level most of the time, and the enemy bullets are very hard to avoud. I think an easier control method would benefit the game.
May 11 16:40:00 120h 02m LAZERBOI ♥ 1 Graphically this game is amazing! Ludum Dare seems a bit short to do good looking 3D graphics, but this manages very well! The game seems very complete too, with interesting enemies and upgrades and all. I think it falls down a bit on gameplay. It's hard, and not easy to get into, though I think with a bit of balancing this should work out fine as well. I am looking forward to an update!
May 11 17:42:24 1h 02m Everything is Money! ♥ 1 Simple but fun! The upgrades need a bit of balancing to be fully effective. As is, the optimal strategy is to just upgrade damage until 100. From then on the pigs can be shot in 1 shot. The other upgrades do not seem as useful.
May 11 22:11:16 4h 28m Is it a drag? ♥ 1 I love the concept, this is the kind of interpretation of the theme I like best! Overall well presented. The game's great audio makes up for the simple graphics. Maybe make it more interesting by filling in the game events with concrete events? And having a graphic for each? And having more than two events per turn or more complex rules? I totally see a cool card game come out of this.
May 17 20:39:37 142h 28m Kicky Blimp ♥ 1 Nice game! Graphics and audio are good and it feels polished. I did find avoiding the cogs a little frustrating because you sometimes can't see them coming.
May 17 20:56:57 17m 20s LD44: Minter ♥ 1 This game is surprisingly fun! I think it can be great with a bit of balancing. As is, I just get the powertool every time and mostly ignore the visitors and thieves.
May 17 21:17:57 21m 00s PathOfForest ♥ 0 Nice game! Nice presentation, and the mechanics seem rich enough for an addictive RTS. It does suffer from some problems though. You get no feedback about how effective the ent attack is, so I had no idea what I was doing and was quickly overrun by the dozers. I also found the controls hard to get into. I had to keep looking at the hard-to-read text at the top left to operate the game.
May 17 21:40:35 22m 38s Pixel's Inferno ♥ 0 A pretty neat concept you captured here with such a limited engine! The game kept intriguing me to the end. Discovering the workings of the world you created was enjoyable. Simple as the graphics are, the high degree of graphical variety worked to keep my interest.
