| May 3 18:53:41 | EXO | ♥ 2 | I am a fan of Sanctum so I am also a fan of this entry! Pretty fun, running around and setting turrets is neat, especially since there are many paths and you have to constantly be mindful of having some escape route. Game seems fairly balanced, turrets needed to be upgraded to keep me safe which ofc lead to me being on lower health. Generally pretty entertaining game, just give me guns and I will call it Sanctum 3! One thing that was annoying; when upgrading / building turrets, it's hard to read the text on that UI background. | |
| May 3 19:10:39 | 16m 58s | Sinner | ♥ 6 | That's some high quality LD entry! I like how you gradually explain game mechanics in the game, it's rare for a game made in jam to have tutorial. The gameplay is fun and there was some weight to the choice between HP and restoring mana / soul since on later waves using skills is super useful. Fighting, dodging, kiting and utilize your skills is really fun and rewarding. I also like how many different enemies there are. One thing that could be improved is maybe making projectiles more visible - they kinda blend with the background. And maybe somehow highlighting what skill is currently selected would be nice - at first it was kinda confusing to know what skill am I using and if next click will do the desired effect or not. Great entry overall, fun to play and really well made. |
| May 3 19:26:03 | 15m 24s | Blood Chest | ♥ 3 | That's a pretty funny and original concept... and it works! Throwing around adventurers is pretty fun and as you survive more waves, it's becoming more challenging as the more crowded chamber gets. The visuals and audio set a great funny mood, I think it would make a great mobile game. |
| May 3 19:37:25 | 11m 22s | Gravy Train | ♥ 1 | Hahahah now that is a truly perfect game for Ludum Dare! Simplistic yet innovative game core and playing it was super fun. I really like how you designed and balanced the game, player character performing actions automatically if close enough was super intuitive and didn't take anything from the game. Train speed and and bug attacks were well balanced and provided enough challenge for the whole game. And humour is also top notch, for some reason i was grinning through the whole game since the the train started moving and I finally got what kind of game is this going to be. All in all, excellent Ludum Dare game! |
| May 3 19:42:38 | 5m 13s | Dave the dev | ♥ 2 | Well that was a sad game that totally didn't hit close to the home. I liked the game references and the feel of inevitable end coming, completely unlike the real life. |
| May 3 20:02:06 | 19m 28s | Mouseketeer | ♥ 2 | That's a really ambitious project! I didn't expect someone to make Rogue Legacy for Ludum Dare and it actually fits the theme! The execution is also pretty good, dungeon is really hard and one mistakes can mean death, the variety of rooms and enemies is pretty small but that's understandable due to the time limitation. The graphics are pretty decent, however the moving background is kinda distracting. Game is pretty charming, mouses (as there is really a lot of them and death of one is not a lose to the family) fighting owl dungeon is a pretty funny concept. Really solid and intuitive entry overall. |
| May 5 13:37:21 | 41h 35m | Spider Disaster | ♥ 0 | A really cool spin for agar.io kind of games, and combat here has a lot of depth and allows for different strategies. Like you can be a glass cannon or a speedy boi who gets one cheeky attack and runs away. Really cool idea and execution is also top notch. Attacking could be easier to read, as I was not always sure how close do I need to be to enemy or how much my attack did / if all my arms got the hit. Anyway, really great entry for LD, easy to understand, fun to play. |
| May 5 13:37:57 | 36s | Bloodlines | ♥ 0 | Top notch game, I liked the references to Warcraft III cultists. Graphics are very nice and together with music, they set a great atmosphere. I liked the humorous bits, it gave the game some character. The combat was a little bit wonky at times but generally the whole gameplay was pretty entertaining. |
| May 5 13:59:57 | 22m 00s | Overtime office hours | ♥ 1 | That is a pretty interesting take on the theme, gameplay itself is pretty simplistic but i am a fan of balancing and mix-maxing games so it was quite fun to experiment with different overhours pays to see what works best and gives most revenue. It was kind of weird that employee who decided to do extra hours, pretty much always quit next day. Still pretty cool idea and decent execution, shame that you marked it is marked as unfinished, some people could still get a kick from this game. |
| May 5 17:47:50 | 3h 47m | Lifeblood | ♥ 1 | Really atmospheric game, music and art really work together. The graphics are really top notch, it's impressive that you managed to do so many different characters and the balloon at the end is really cool looking. Gameplay is simplistic but pretty entertaining, figuring out how things work and where you can find the best stuff on map was fun but it's pretty hard to win the game on your first try before knowing your way around the town. Anyway, really great entry with incredible mood. |
| May 13 17:13:17 | 191h 25m | Black Friday Shopping | ♥ 2 | Entertaining and funny gameplay, and pretty decent balance. I liked the graphics and audio, voiceacting really gave the game special charm. |
| May 18 13:17:16 | 116h 03m | Arcade Wars | ♥ 0 | Cool spin on top-down shooter, you can't really spam fire buttons since you are literally shoot your life away, killing or avoiding enemies is a constant 'tactical' decision that player has to make. Game is pretty well balanced, the difficulty curve gives time to get used to controls and provides later on a decent challenge. I am also digging the graphics, neat coin animations. |
