Apr 20 17:14:36 Stove Man ♥ 1 Well, that was a special experience X) The game has a "surreal" vibe that I like, but I was not sure what to do : I put thing into the fire, but my axe broke and then I didn't how to advance in the game: also the fire does not seems to die. Also note that if you don't use z and q, you can also assign z to up and q to left, so that azerty keyboards don't have to switch layout to play ;)
Apr 20 17:19:56 5m 20s Memories ♥ 0 I really liked the graphics and the music, it gives a nostalgic mood that fits well the story :) (maybe you should opt out of the humor category, because this game is not really a source of lulz ^^ ) Not sure I understood everything about the story (especially the second part), but as said, you had to cut short the game. Maybe a post-jam version could be nice?
Apr 20 17:25:47 5m 51s Bubby ♥ 1 The game reminded me a bit of lemmings, but with different controls ^^ The mechanics could lead to some interesting puzzle, with multiple bubby, multiple switch or lots of boxes, too bad you didn't had time to create more: it could be cool to have a post-jam version to see what you can do with the cute bubby :)
Apr 20 18:10:31 44m 44s Beware the Dark ♥ 2 The atmosphere is nice, but the game is really short : maybe an infinite mode would be nice, with more and more ennemies and a scoring system ;) Also, when you are not using the key q (or z), you can also make that q = left and z = up, so that azerty keyboard don't have to change layout to play the game ;)
Apr 20 18:27:17 16m 46s In the Valley of Souls Deluxe Edition ♥ 1 Wow, that was an incredible game ! At first I was not sure if that was based or not on another game because of the polish that is rare to see in a compo game ^^ The story is really cool (even if the end was a bit lackluster in my opinion), it got some doki doki or undertale vibes ^^ Really cool game, and even more impressive as a compo game :)
Apr 21 15:59:05 21h 31m IcyNoid ♥ 1 Really cool game ! The polish is very nice, and the game is quite innovative :) I had a bit of difficulty controlling the character (when trying to chang his speed with the momentum of the paddle, I often miscalculated and did not catch him), but appart from that the game is very good !
Apr 21 16:02:34 3m 29s Nuclear Bad Day ♥ 0 I think the game is not loading for me :/ the blue bar is stuck at about 95%, and in the console there is a warning "The AudioContext was not allowed to start. It must be resumed (or created) from a user gesture event handler. https://goo.gl/7K7WLu". I'm using brave (with shields/adblocker disabled, so it should behave like chrome). After 5 minutes of wait, the bar turns red and errors show up : GET https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/2155939/images/sprite8-sheet0.png 500 Error loading image 'https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/2155939/images/sprite8-sheet0.png': Event {isTrusted: true, type: "error", target: img, currentTarget: img, eventPhase: 2, …}
Apr 21 16:13:32 10m 58s Chasse Gardée ♥ 4 The game is really funny ^^ The art is really nice, and the music is good ! I didn't manage to finish the game, but it was a fun experience :) The only problem is that the fullscreen does not scale, and since you are not using the key "q", you can make it also go to the left, so the azerty layout don't have to switch to qwerty layouts ;) (also, you opt-out of the music category, why? Do you have a link to the music if you did not make it? Just by curiosity ^^ ) Gros poutou de Belgique !
Apr 21 16:29:23 15m 51s balloons ♥ 0 If you don't use q and z in your game, you can assign them to left and up, so that azerty keyboards don't have to change layout to play the game ;)
Apr 21 16:35:07 5m 44s Ethereal Tale ♥ 1 Wow, the game is not easy ^^ The graphics are cool and the music is really nice, but I didn't get to hear much of it since I suck :/ Also, if you don't use the key "q", you can map it to left so that azerty keyboards don't have to change layout ;)
Apr 21 16:41:17 6m 10s Save My Grandparents ♥ 0 The checker background is not the best to read the action, also one virus spawned almost directly on my grandparent, which makes it hard to protect them ^^ Also, when you are not using the key "q" and "z", you can assign them to left and up, so that azerty keyboards don't have to change layout to play ;)
Apr 21 16:52:08 10m 51s The Gates ♥ 1 I liked the game, it is unfinished but is actually playable and interesting, and the fact that it is unfinished gives it a special vibe that I liked :) Maybe a post-jam version could be interresting ;) Also, if you don't use q or z, you can map them to left and up, so that azerty keyboard don't have to change layout to play :)
Apr 22 07:33:43 14h 41m Defend the Loot! ♥ 1 I like the building idea, but it seemed to me that the best strategy was to put all the obsidian directly next to the chest, instead of building a base or a labyrinth ^^ Also, the game crashed two time, the first time on the first wave and the second time at the end of second wave :/
Apr 22 07:36:35 2m 52s Overstock! ♥ 0 I don't know if it's a bug with the web version, but I can't click on the button, when trying to click on play it opens the credits :/
Apr 22 08:01:00 24m 25s BOILING PLANET ♥ 2 I could not get past the first level, and I made my best score the first time when I did not understand what I was doing X) I still don't get the scoring system, sometimes when I have only 10 blocks remaining on my island I get loads of point, and other when I have almost all of my island remaining and lots of grass block, I don't get any points :/ The game is very relaxing and the mechanics are very interesting, but easier levels could be nice (like introductory levels, because I'm still not sure if what I did was right ;) )
Apr 22 08:11:38 10m 38s For Ducks' Sake ♥ 3 The art is really cute ! The game is simple but it works well, and is fun to play :) The only problem i had is that aiming with the mouse but firing in 8 direction is counter-intuitive, but after a time you get used to that. Also, if you don't use the key "q" and "z", you can assign them to left and up, so that azerty keyboards don't have to change layout to play ;)
Apr 22 15:09:22 6h 57m Chaos & Order ♥ 1 The game seems to be interesting, but it was hard to understand how to play, and I got the same error than @fabula-rasa ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Mouse Event for Left Pressed for object oEnd: Variable <unknown_object>.<unknown variable>(100034, -2147483648) not set before reading it. at gml_Object_oEnd_Mouse_4 ############################################################################################ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- stack frame is gml_Object_oEnd_Mouse_4 (line -1)
Apr 22 15:19:33 10m 11s CAN you stay alive? ♥ 2 The game is interesting ! It was a short but fun experience, the only problem is that I feel like the most effective way to score is to spawn one soldier at a time behind the ennemies, so they change direction and to just attract them backwards, because there is so many of them you cannot kill them all. I made 66 seconds with that technique ^^ Also I had a crash once, ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event0 for object obj_aliado_sombra: Unable to find any instance for object index '100893' name '<undefined>' at gml_Object_obj_aliado_sombra_Step_0 ############################################################################################ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- stack frame is gml_Object_obj_aliado_sombra_Step_0 (line -1)
Apr 22 19:09:36 3h 50m The Empty Cone ♥ 3 Very cool game ! I did not read the description before playing, I was really surprised when the monster showed up, I was like "WTF is happening in this game?", it was fun ^^
Apr 22 19:17:52 8m 16s Keep chicks alive! ♥ 2 Nice game, a bit hard to know what kills you and what don't due to the low count of pixel. I like the fact that the level started by showing what mechanics to expect in the rest of the level, before you get the egg
Apr 23 09:50:58 14h 33m Open Fire! ♥ 2 The game is really beautiful, and the music gives a nice mood :) Maybe the gameplay could be a bit more interesting, with ennemies requiring different tempo and changing which key to press during a stage, because right now you can just mash all the keys for the entire game X) But I understand you spend most of the time on the gorgeous art than on the game design Also, since you don't use the key "a" in your game, you could map it to the "q" key, so azerty keyboards don't have to change layout to play ;)
Apr 23 13:16:07 3h 25m Keep Ivan Trotsky Alive ♥ 5 Funny game ^^ It was a bit hard to understand how to play at first, but once I understood and got used to the time it need for the duck to stop (and for the grandpa to follow it), it was really nice to play :) And the grumpy grandpa is adorable and fun X) A post-jam version with more levels using the mechanics introduced (the lasers and moving car), could be really nice :) (also, the fullscreen is very small on high resolution screen)
Apr 23 13:31:35 15m 28s Mr. Cheesy ♥ 1 The game is really beautiful and the idea is really nice ! The controls have a little lag, and more mechanics could be nice to keep the interest through the game, but it is a really nice entry and really polished !
Apr 23 16:13:46 2h 42m Hungry Hamster ♥ 1 This is the first time I give a 5* in innovation and theme with so much conviction X) The idea is really funny, not sure it give a good game (especially for us poor European, it's 6pm here and 1am for the poor hamster, so not much happens), but it's awesome to see funny experience like this :)
Apr 23 16:41:37 27m 51s The Last Guardian ♥ 2 The game is nice, the graphism are really good and the music is cool :) Maybe you should give more feedback to the player when hitting/getting hit, because the sound effects are low compared to the music, so when you hit/get hit it doesn't feel that impacting ;)
Apr 23 16:53:46 12m 09s Yeti Protector ♥ 1 The game is nice, with great art and the concept is interesting with level well designed, a post-jam version with faster play (and maybe animation showing mouvement), and indicator of range for the different element (to avoid losing just because the player didn't wanted to count number of tile for every thing he placed) would be very cool :)
Apr 23 17:43:05 49m 19s My Friend Phil ♥ 1 The game is really gorgeous, the pixel art is really nice and the music is cool, but the way the character controls with its acceleration curve, hard to make wall jump (especially the second time in the first level, with walls close to each other) made the experience a bit frustrating, especially considering the polish of the rest of the game
Apr 23 20:12:28 2h 29m Just a Stroll ♥ 1 The game is really beautiful ! I really liked the splatter of blood that the pigeons left, turning the peaceful parc into a blood bath ^^
Apr 24 13:29:48 17h 17m Oh, the Connection! ♥ 1 The game has interesting mechanics ! I like the fact that servers have asymmetrical radius, it gives interesting puzzle. It could be nice to have a post-jam version, with more levels and maybe making it impossible to move a server if the move would result in death (I spend too much time re-doing the level because I didn't realise one server would be alone, resulting into a bit of frustration)
Apr 24 13:46:22 16m 34s Pigeon Ascent ♥ 2 Apparently the game does not like hdpi screen very much ^^ pigeon.PNG
Apr 24 14:01:18 14m 56s Pyromania ♥ 2 Nice game ! I liked the concept of creating things that are more and more exotic to burn ^^ The pixel art is really good (even if the menu would have loved to also get it :p ), and the music accelerating is a nice touch My only problem is that at the end the fires dies too quickly, so the wood is being thrown but the fire is still dying, and you have to move to send wood, you cannot just stay still to send all your stock, which was a bit counter-intuitive. Also if you map q and z to left and right, people with azerty keyboard won't have to change layout ;) A very polished entry, with a fun mechanic, well played !
Apr 24 15:34:51 1h 33m Signal Fire On Mystery Island ♥ 1 I was not expecting this game to be this chill X) I really like the nice atmosphere, you are crashed on a tropical island, and even if the fire was a timer, I did not felt the need to rush to rescue it, and honestly it is nice to be able to take your time. I tried to use the wheelbarrow, but since it's not required (and the game is not hard, thus making the wheelbarrow optionnal), I just did not use it ^^ Overall very nice entry, I liked the atmosphere, the music would be repetitive for a longer game, but fit really well into the mood and gives a holiday feeling that is cool to have in these times ^^
Apr 24 15:49:33 14m 42s Paper Holes ♥ 1 You should clearly tell in the description that you upgraded a game from a previous game jam, because apart from the code, it also mean that the game design was already made, graphics too, you had plenty of feedback on your previous entry, you had plenty of time to think about what to change and upgrade, etc. I don't think it's wrong to do so (in the jam version of ld, it wouldn't be ok in compo), you just need to say it clearly in the description and tell it in the description that this was not made in 72h, because else the people think you created it from the ground up. Even if you don't take the ludum dare as a competition, a lot of people do ;) (hence the rating system ^^ ) For the game in itself, the regular switch from black to white is kinda annoying, but appart from that the game is simple but fun, I could also see it ported as a fun quick mobile game, the game is visually good and quite polished :)
Apr 24 17:37:51 1h 48m Nightwatch ♥ 2 Really cool atmosphere ! I could not find more diary after a few one (the last one I found is the one where she wants to go in the other direction next), I tried looking for the one near the place with no success, then I tried going the other direction, still no success. Nevertheless, the mood is really cool, a bit creepy while not being too dark, even if the darkness does not hurt you ^^ (I tried walking out without light, expecting a game over, but nope). Really cool entry, I really liked the mood, the graphics and the audio ! (if I could just have a map or an indication of where is the next diary, that would be awesome :D )
Apr 24 17:52:49 14m 58s Long Live The King ♥ 1 Nice graphics ! Protecting the baby reminded me of yoshi's island, without the annoying crying (which is a good thing ^^ ) As other have told, having a more complex combat system would be nice, because right now my strategy is "go ahead, amass the ennemies, mash the button, and get back the baby" ^^ Could be nice to have shield, charged attacks or combo ;)
Apr 24 18:03:49 11m 00s For Seraphina ♥ 1 We can really feel you put your emotions when making this game. Really beautiful. Two small notes, not really important, but so you know for the next ludum dare : the writings are really small on high-res screen, which makes it hard to read, and since you did not compose the music you should opt-out of the audio category
Apr 24 18:32:11 28m 22s Wave Machine ♥ 1 Really cool game ! The game feel very polished, and easy enough for a newbie in rhythm game like me to have fun ^^ Good job ! (the only thing I would change is the z-index of the feet of the character that are in front of the head of the character sitting in front, but that's a minor detail ^^ )
Apr 24 18:46:20 14m 09s OtherworldlyFlavors ♥ 2 Really cool game ! As other people have said, it has a "reign" vibes to it, but a bit darker, which is really nice ! The discovery at the start is really the best part, but the game is short enough for this starting wonder to stay through all the game, which is really nice :)
Apr 24 19:59:31 1h 13m Come to Mama ♥ 1 Nice game ! I just wished you could drop items where the bear? is, because sometimes throwing things where you want is a bit hard ^^
Apr 24 21:50:55 1h 51m Keep the Keep ♥ 1 Really cool game ! Nice puzzle, kept me thinking a good time ^^
