| Apr 21 12:45:20 | For Ducks' Sake | ♥ 4 | Love the character design and colors- the graphics in general are fabulous. The sound really brought me back to the 8 bit loops of Nintendo. More scenarios and maybe some different enemy types and Robotron beware! ;) Thanks for the game! | |
| Apr 21 13:06:59 | 21m 39s | Hibernation Journey | ♥ 1 | hj.jpg Love this little light year sim! Such a good start- you can add some juice and this game with be amazing! I want more feedback as far as when to maintain- and maybe some reasons to throughout the maintenance schedule all together. Def fits the theme! Jim was 37 and Pem was 28. She can sleep more through anything! ;) |
| Apr 21 13:15:24 | 8m 25s | Jessy and Mr. Golden Skin (unfinished) | ♥ 1 | That is too bad. Love your walk cycle and looking forward to this when it is complete. Don't get too upset- it happens. But, yeah- you should complete this when you can! Hope your team is safe! |
| Apr 21 13:27:57 | 12m 33s | Blood Runs | ♥ 2 | br.jpg I mean c'mon- this is amazing! Vampy GTA?! So- I only made it through two feedings- I didn't eat enough and died in my sleep. Superb art, fantastic music and wonderful SFX- Will be back to see if I can get in a tussle with the cops. This is a perfect idea. Can't wait to see more. Please add more drift. Thanks for the game!! |
| Apr 21 13:37:37 | 9m 40s | Kalend | ♥ 2 | k.jpg This is so cool- solid platforming. Simple and effective graphics/anims. Love the self reflexive and engaging story. (Signposting is superb in this- you got me with that first lever- total suprise- perfect game moment, when I fell!) I got stuck in the polys on the next segment (see pic, also- i thought i picked up a blue diamond thing but now i don't see it in the HUD?) would have loved to jump out and keep going. I'll be back! Thanks so much for the game! @gabriel-pittol Thanks for the reply and the info- love this game! |
| Apr 21 13:44:57 | 7m 20s | Kitten Catastrophe | ♥ 2 | Yeah, I'm impressed with this being a first entry, too. Fun and expressive graphics, amazing sound, and a real difficult game! I hate those lights!!! But we did get mauled by a dog and then run over by an exploding car. Wow! Smithereens! Thank you so much for the game! Can't wait to see what you accomplish in the future! |
| Apr 21 15:08:19 | 1h 23m | Milk Dungeon | ♥ 1 | md.jpg I love your cover art- def reminiscent of Atari box art! I ran into a few bugs- at least perceived, but maybe I was missing with the button presses? Would love a different layout button layout to make play a little easier. Love the graphics in general and funny voice work! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 21 15:22:31 | 14m 12s | MicroVore | ♥ 2 | mv.jpg Wow. Mood is off the charts! I couldn't seem to interact? After a while I noticed that pressing S seemed to trigger an SFX? Not sure. Reminded me of Tamagotchi and Folding@Home. Frames were low- gorgeous visuals and the music reminded me of early Brad Fidel. I am not familiar with VFX graph, so please take my comments witha grain of salt- Amazing though that this is all particles! I will def check out Beleth. Thanks for the experience! mv2.jpg (edit)I feel like the bright particle cloud might be interactive, but maybe my laptop is too slow? Surface Book 2 Nvidia 1060. |
| Apr 21 15:41:17 | 18m 46s | Marrow | ♥ 0 | Awesome game- reminds me of Nuclear Throne! Had some issues with the movement, but wow- 3 days? I'm impressed! The title image drew me in for sure. Love to hate the bats in this, and when the tall dude teleported for the first time- I freaked out! I did have this occasional issue while running the game. marrow.jpg Oh- also, thank you for the in depth tutorial- it def made the experience more enjoyable for me- though I couldn't ever activate an upgrade. Huge Map! Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 21 16:01:29 | 20m 12s | 7 DAYS OF FEEDING | ♥ 1 | Hahaha! Love it! Great job completing this for the jam! Hope you do go futher. Love the elements of hunger vs suspicion. Cultist simulator with Lovecratian tendencies? Yeah- I'm drinking that kool-aid. I would love to see some splash art for a win condition- Eldritch God taking over- interesting how you can really game the system when you get enough followers. Fantastic job! Hit me up if you ever need any art in the future. Thank you for the game! 7days.jpg 7days2.jpg |
| Apr 21 17:55:05 | 1h 53m | Mothership | ♥ 1 | Oh- I loved this intro. Loved the little aliens- reminded me of a planet of Number Munchers- I was kind of overwhelmed with the gameplay at first, but then got the hang of it. Kinda reminded me of music pattern game- like DDR or Rock Band. Saw a lot of this. mothership.jpg This is about as far as I got- mothership1.jpg I found that my skill level wasn't a match- and actually if I mashed the ASD I was just as successful. I don't know if that was random or a bug- it seemed like the colors weren't matching so I thought I would mention. Also, I was expecting the bullets to die when they hit the edge shield, but they seemed to cease on the center of the ship. All-in-all, amazing work. Congrats and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 21 18:04:50 | 9m 45s | Switch.tv | ♥ 0 | Hahaha! Love the concept- such a good idea- graphics and implementation are great too. I was able to play for a moment as a guy- but I censored a user too early. I haven't been bale to play since, just keeps crashing. Will check back later on. Awesome work. Thanks for the game! switch.jpg |
| Apr 21 18:17:51 | 13m 01s | The Dogsanity Abusive Experience | ♥ 2 | The art is gorgi! Love the whole feel- I don't know how to feed the dog- I could only get 1/3 and 2/3- I thought I was about to get there- and then Max died again. :( can't wait to see where you go with this. Thanks for the game! dog.jpg |
| Apr 21 18:35:12 | 17m 21s | NOAS | ♥ 1 | Wow- super impressive- 3D in game maker?! I thought that was just a myth! Seriously, Played on web and I think the controls feel amazing. Kinda blew my mind with the view change. Everything seems really responsive, and clear instructions help avoid any confusion. Reminded me of Tron, but like for real. Great work! tank1.jpg tank2.jpg Thanks for the game!!! |
| Apr 21 18:41:00 | 5m 48s | It Came From Inside! | ♥ 2 | Love the art and music and the feel of the platforming. I wondered if the "charge" move would be more useful- and it was! You taught me through play really well. Also, loved the care that went into the interface main health bar of the character. Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 21 18:50:08 | 9m 08s | Keep cats alive! | ♥ 1 | Great work! I love the style and chill mood. I found a lot of food- but few cats. I shudder to think of all the poor cats that didn't survive the flood! Thanks for the positive game! Kinda reminded me of an Orisinal flash game- which I mean as a compliment. cats.jpg |
| Apr 21 18:59:56 | 9m 48s | Squatch Watch: Keeping The Myth Alive | ♥ 2 | I just played on web no problems- (firefox win i7 gtx 1060) well, low frames, but I can't believe the graphics, and AI, and map size for a 3D web game. Really impressive! Big fan of the squatch, glad he's back. Fantastic work! bf.jpg |
| Apr 21 19:09:22 | 9m 26s | Snowball | ♥ 2 | I love the character design! The interface was a little difficult to get a hang of- seemed kind of buggy at times and tight at others. Look out for Winged Claws!!! Poor snowball... snowball.jpg |
| Apr 21 19:12:08 | 2m 46s | Timmy | ♥ 0 | The stress here! Timmy is getting into all kinds of trouble. Great mix of comedy and drama! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 21 19:22:10 | 10m 02s | Lone | ♥ 3 | Gorgeous. Great idea for a walking simulator- love mood that you captures with the soundscapes and sparse graphics. I was sure that I should protect the candle from the wind, but unclear what to do with the other sounds. Very horrific to be chased through the dark!!! Also, love the menu and cello(?) throbs with the buttons. Impressive work! Congratulations and thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 21 19:31:49 | 9m 39s | Soul Blazer | ♥ 2 | Very difficult for me- but I'm not coordinated. Had a look at the other comments and thought I'd take another go. I think the problem is- I was playing on a laptop touchpad. Spent a little more time and got through the horrors! Worked best for me with the keys and touchscreen. Love the concept and the art- the burning fings- so cool. Great job and thanks for the game! finger.jpg lol no offense- this is the only screenshot I was able to grab before my soul was extinguished ;) |
| Apr 21 19:46:42 | 14m 53s | Stupid Little Bird | ♥ 1 | Wow- I clicked on this because of the cover image, looking forward to a simple flappy bird rip off- I was WRONG. This is so good, so well thought out and a great concept. By far- one of my favorites from this jam. My face matched the mother bird's the first time the SPOILER stupid little bird fell and died- OMG. Great animations- cool levels, can't wait to see more! I think this could be a best seller for sure. Great job and thank you so much for the game! |
| Apr 21 19:58:13 | 11m 31s | Why, Jeff | ♥ 2 | Oh wow- I kinda wrote this off for a moment because of that bug- so glad I came back. This is so good. Very innovative and super cool. The graphics are great- the interface is juicy and the sound is so good. I just kept the start screen creepy chill jam on for some ambience after. One of the best of the jam for sure - why? Jeff. ohjeff.jpg |
| Apr 21 20:10:36 | 12m 23s | Playing with Fire | ♥ 2 | Wow- so cool to see that you used the Game of Life pattern. Blue planes work great, but what do I do with red planes? Send them down? Try to send them far? I was a little confused about that, but maybe I missed something. Cool concept and definitely hitting the theme! Looking forward to where this goes next. Thanks for the game! burned.jpg |
| Apr 21 20:30:18 | 19m 42s | Air Jump | ♥ 1 | The font is hard to read, but I still love it. I love the scale of this game too. There is no way I am ever going to beat it. I like the art, but couldn't manage the mechanics. Thanks for the game! jump.jpg ^^ I got real high on this jump, but missed the screenshot! |
| Apr 22 03:13:48 | 6h 43m | Hikikomori Simulator | ♥ 1 | Mom! Very nice graphics and smart simple style. Haha- I could only ever last (2) days. Great job- would love to last longer, but also love if that's the point! Thanks so much for the Hikikomori Simulator! |
| Apr 22 05:48:01 | 2h 34m | Magician's Monster | ♥ 1 | Nice! Love the scale! The gameplay kinda reminds me of Missile Command- only cooler because you are a wizard riding a giant! Seemed as though the kinematics kinda broke on the Monster- and the leg was messed up- but maybe that was broken by the stones? I'm not certain. Anyway- great job and thank you for the game! mons1.jpg mons2.jpg |
| Apr 22 05:51:36 | 3m 35s | Last Hope | ♥ 1 | Great little story! Congrats! Love the graphics and the dark realistic story. Was this made in AGS? Wanted more from the map, but cool ephemera! Thanks so much for the game! Screenshot (58).png |
| Apr 23 05:02:59 | 23h 11m | Hope | ♥ 0 | Played on web first- even with disclaimer. Made a note to come back- glad I did. Airy little story. Love the graphics, game play, sparse scary sound effects, and the hopeful ending. Great game. Reminded me a bit of FAR: Lone Sails which I loved as well. Thank you for the game! |
| Apr 23 15:55:51 | 10h 52m | DUNDER | ♥ 2 | Having never had access, so cool to be able to play in the style of Zed Ex! Really took me back to the 8bits. I thought of some improvements to gameplay, when i was strugglin' but really, I think all of those "conveniences" would take away from the charm that this little platformer just exudes. All 5's, baby. This is next level LD. Fun, challenging, nostalgic, and short. You left me wanting more. dun.jpg |
| Apr 23 16:01:29 | 5m 38s | Tumbleweed | ♥ 2 | Gorgeous. Jaw-droppingly gorgeous. I was playing on Surface Book 2 and had problems with the trackpad- (a windows problem) used the touch screen instead- problems solved. What a fantastic little world you have built here. Thank you for the game! tumble.jpg |
| Apr 23 16:48:43 | 47m 14s | Keep Your Town Alive! | ♥ 1 | I love the mood of this game. Sure, the controls are kinda clunky, but the isometric view is cool, and for 72 hours... c'mon- it's great! I made it 7 orders before I called it quits. Having grown up in a rural area- I think it is spot on as far as life on a farm. Work work work. Maybe with a little story in-between the orders, there would be more incentive to continue playing? Great job and thank you for the game! farm.jpg |
| Apr 23 16:58:44 | 10m 01s | The last plant | ♥ 1 | Good job! I think you should go back to top down if you put more work into this. Or, maybe, there is a way to connect the two genres?! Def had some bugs- or what I thought were bugs- try to shoot right- bullets go left. But this game is exactly what LD is all about. Testing new ideas, making something, and putting it out there. Keep up the good work and thanks for the game! drskull.jpg |
| Apr 23 18:11:50 | 1h 13m | Open Fire! | ♥ 1 | I just pretended that I was playing the music while pressing "QSLP" Cute graphics and story. Played through twice to see if there was any difference, and yes- the keys needed were different! My favorite line: damn.jpg Great work and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 23 18:28:08 | 16m 18s | Dance Commander | ♥ 3 | dance.jpg Hard to keep the beat and get a good screenshot! At first I was bothered by the movement speed, but that was because I missed the instruction about timing the spacebar- that was a big help. Ooo then that dance party got started! Thanks for the fun game! |
| Apr 23 18:34:12 | 6m 04s | Turtle Daddy | ♥ 1 | This is perfect- gorgeous art, unbelievably smooth game play, great sound and AAA design. Thank you for adding SPACE as an alternative to right-click. This was a lifesaver while playing on laptop touchpad. 5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5 turts.jpg |
| Apr 23 19:52:25 | 1h 18m | Lamps | ♥ 2 | I really appreciate how you achieved "hard to play" on so many levels, but I still was determined to go through it. Personally, I find this to be a really sad game. But, I'm filling in the blanks. The worst kind of horror. Love the graphics and light effects. Style and feel reminded me of Inside, but with a much more hopeful ending- maybe... I was going to post my favorite image, but I'll leave it up to everyone else to find. Fantastic work, you two, as always. Thank you so much for the experience! |
| Apr 23 21:19:24 | 1h 26m | Aviarium | ♥ 1 | This game is like a memory of a childhood dream. So funny how I keep trying to control camera with the trackpad. Thank you for breaking me free of that scheme for a little bit. Flying feels so good in this- hard to get off the ground and so graceful in the air. You know you have a good game when you learn how to end the game, but you don't, because you just want more. Thanks for the amazing experience! boid.jpg |
| Apr 23 21:29:35 | 10m 11s | Save The Cake | ♥ 1 | Ooo thooose Sleeeeems. |
| Apr 24 00:01:07 | 2h 31m | Starship Clicker | ♥ 1 | clicker.jpg Am I doing this right??? |
| Apr 24 00:47:42 | 46m 35s | Last Beer | ♥ 1 | I love all the care put into the design of this game. The character art is stellar and the mechanics- especially the need to enjoy the last beer while dashing away even though it clouds your vision- just great! Thanks for the game! I went from 30 - 60 - beer.jpg |
| Apr 24 02:17:05 | 1h 29m | Retrobulbar | ♥ 2 | Brilliant design! The mental 360 that happened in the first scene! I think the way this game plays with expectations and perspective definitely relates to the theme. Great job and thank you for the game! |
| Apr 24 04:26:03 | 2h 08m | AMT: Alien Medical Technician | ♥ 1 | So much art! Love all the aliens. Really impressive how much variation you were able to accomplish in such a short amount of time. The gameplay was tight, and the only thing I was craving was a little more story behind each of the aliens- maybe as a win condition for each success? Great job and surprising amount of content for a jam game. Also, cool to see a Godot game. Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 25 00:08:37 | 19h 42m | Dino spin | ♥ 2 | How's this for a soft touch?! dino_spin.jpg Fantastic! Love the feel and the graphics couldn't be cuter. Thanks for the tight game! |
| Apr 25 00:12:52 | 4m 15s | Fiery Caverns | ♥ 0 | So good. Funny, solid gameplay, and a surprisingly little platformer. The achievements really kept me going. My favorite achievement? the_void.jpg Would love a checklist at the end. I didn't see half of them because I was too busy wiping sweat from my eyes. ;) |
| Apr 25 00:15:22 | 2m 30s | Mage or Trouble | ♥ 1 | Jumped right in at the end, and it was like 16 bit FF all over again. I've not played many RPG Maker games, but I loved this. So many attacks, so many items- I'm really impressed. Thank you for the game! |
| Apr 25 03:45:46 | 3h 30m | Bobbleheads want to dance | ♥ 1 | Oh whoa- I agree with @qyouk - that was very hypnotic. I am amazed that I could actually follow the story and keep clicking- I only made it to 128- oh the neighbor... Thank you for the pleasant little game! |
| Apr 25 04:17:15 | 31m 29s | CAN you stay alive? | ♥ 1 | Very addictive! I love the graphics and sounds- Omg- it is so stressful when those candy bubbles are invading en masse. I made it 45 something seconds, and couldn't beat that- then I had a look at the comments and using the "lure" technique I made it all the way to 62.55. 95?! You gotta be kidding me!!! Love that this was made in GM as well- I am still hearing that can crunch! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 25 04:36:20 | 19m 05s | The Last Tree | ♥ 1 | Amazing graphics and cool soundtrack! I had some frame rate issues- but it ran. The map is huge! After I saved the plant- I went back to explore the landscape- I made it to the edge of the world!!! It was actually really fun to sail the "Tin Can" across the dunes to the music. Unfortunately, I had to sacrifice the plant to do so. :( Thanks for the beautiful game! you_plant_died.jpg |
| Apr 25 04:54:41 | 18m 21s | Cub Valley | ♥ 1 | I hate to say it- but I had the same problem as @gorypixels Thought you should know. Hmmm- I'm playing on a Surface Book 2- had a mouse plugged in. Removed- restarted- no luck. What's with these iPads any way?! ;p I though this was supposed to be a computer?! Looking forward to try again on desktop tomorrow. |
| Apr 25 05:42:32 | 47m 51s | The Empty Cone | ♥ 2 | the_daily_scoop.jpg Here's the news- this game is brilliant. I did not read the description, so everything was a surprise. You really captured the stress of retail/food service in the mechanics of the gameplay. "Oh shit- I made the wrong ice cream cone" was a thought that actually went through my head. Trying to get rid of that cone and watching the customers slowly get pissed off- all the while glancing at the clock spinning in the corner... I'm still chuckling reliving it- omg- the twist- the release- and the consequences- perfectly executed in my opinion. The newspaper cut scenes were the cherry on top. You have a wonderful sense of comedy and drama- not only within the plot and mechanics- but through the audio and visuals as well. I mean, the characters are very reminiscent of ice cream cones. Super impressive jam game. And the self-reflexivity! I think every game developer should be required to play this game. No matter how hard you try to please everyone, mistakes will be made, and the monsters are coming. the_empty_cone.jpg |
| Apr 25 06:08:00 | 25m 28s | Highlights | ♥ 1 | Wow. I really felt the anxiety of each conversation- and I am so happy with the ending- it really lifted the cloud of not being able to save some of the earlier relationships. It really pays off the setup- and calls into question whether anything is a choice, a concept that people who don't suffer from depression may not fully understand. Thank you for this game! |
| Apr 25 06:36:04 | 28m 04s | DEATH | ♥ 1 | I think you broke Ludum Dare 46. Intense and reverent. Thank you for the game. |
| Apr 25 07:10:00 | 33m 56s | Manifest Destiny | ♥ 1 | I could feel the dread creep into camp the night before we rounded the last bend. It seemed as if this whole expedition had been doomed from the start. Oh, we had been warned many times, but heeded none. The pass had been so far unforgiving, and many good allies had fallen to the enemy. If my instincts were correct; the worst was yet to come. As the sun peeked over the snow-capped mountains, I cinched my herb poultice tight and loaded the last of our ammunition into the Colt Navy. Our provisions were low, but with a little luck- we might just make it out and onward to the promised lands. We might just- The sound of gunfire shattered my daydream. I scanned the horizon- and the puffs of revolver smoke filled my guts with doom. In that instant, I knew the truth- today, victory was not ours to be had... Thanks for the game!!! |
| Apr 25 14:27:28 | 7h 17m | Phase 7 | ♥ 0 | So many little piles of pure carbon. carbon.jpg What a horrifying and hilarious game. Saturated in moral dilemma! The cute and photo-real juxtaposition kind of recalls an Amanita game. I love it! The scenario also reminded me of the BSG remake- with a Covid-19 twist. The sound effects are spine tingling- from the fiery screams to the cold voice over the loudspeaker. Doubly impressed that this was built from the ground up. Congratulations and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 25 14:53:23 | 25m 55s | Doin' It Live | ♥ 1 | Love your take on the theme and the gorgeous little world you created. Very cute little blabbermouths! I last played single-player, but so much more fun with two. After a while- news stream stopped? I just had to take a hit in views and it restarted. sock.jpg The lighting and design reminded me of Media Molecule's LBP, so juicy and responsive! Great job! The eye brow control is comedy gold! |
| Apr 25 15:02:55 | 9m 32s | tiriplici | ♥ 1 | Ooo- I love the hand-drawn animations! What a great little team up- Interesting to read your inspiration. I had some issues with the movement, but for me- the charm of the art more than made up for that. Love the mechanic of being able to control two "thingies" at the same time. The potential of this mechanic is very promising. Thank you for the game! |
| Apr 25 15:34:39 | 31m 44s | Have Mercy | ♥ 1 | Had an issue on the first battle- I guess LD has me conditioned to be on the lookout- so, I was sure it was a game-breaking bug- I WAS WRONG! 1.jpg But, I can't see the HP range!!! I took a moment and realized that the resolution of my monitor might be the problem (on Surface Book 2) I set to 1920 x 1080 and FIXED! Thought you should know. 2.jpg Then, I started questioning the complexity of the gameplay- but strode forward. It wasn't until the next match that I really started to see the potential of this mechanic. I wonder if each player had the ability to attack, protect, or heal- how would that change the gameplay loop? It was pretty amazing how you were training me to think ahead. Love the graphics. I feel some variance in the soundtrack could actually benefit this game- Overall, fantastic job. A compo game with this much gameplay and polish is very impressive. Thank you for the game! edit: After reading through the other comments- I agree with you that this could be a great math teaching tool!!! |
| Apr 25 15:51:39 | 17m 00s | Seafood | ♥ 1 | Really impressive work for an LD! Love the cute style with the gory premise! ;) I dug out a steam controller- but, no go- is there a way to make that work? Either way, keys worked absolutely fine for me. I did notice a bug on the menu screen. It seems the soundtrack re-triggered- maybe from hovering over one of the buttons?! Thanks for the gorgi little underwater game! |
| Apr 25 16:15:25 | 23m 46s | Ubergine | ♥ 3 | 5* for Dingus. I have a question- are you right or left-handed? Ambidextrous? I am right-handed and have little to no coordination- oh this game messed with me- even tried crossing my hands on the keyboard! So I found a friend to play. Much more manageable! Maybe not intended, but I really had fun with this as a local 2P. Great character designs. Thank you for the weapon power ups- Would love 4-way fire- at least, but get that the LR fire is part of the challenge. Love the character design- Gundog is my new fav. And that engorged Ubergine!!! Fabulous little world here. Also, really appreciated the menu and especially the full-screen option! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 25 16:30:33 | 15m 08s | Save the FOX! | ♥ 1 | Had a few issues with the controls at first, but resolved after I got used to them. The collisions seemed a little buggy, but it also seemed like you accounted for that, i.e. Lisa gets pushed off the far right ledge and disappears- but re-spawns back, so that was good. I wasn't really able to tell- but does pushing Lisa out of the way of the owl's pine cone bombs help? It seemed like once they were launched- they would hit. I couldn't ever get up the ladder, and ended up just shooting into the air- sometimes that helped, sometimes not. Cute characters and an ominous ambient soundtrack! Good job! |
| Apr 25 22:03:44 | 5h 33m | Iguanathon | ♥ 2 | The controls are very slippery, the iguana doesn't have enough jump or speed percentage, and the snakes are too fast- in other words, a perfect representation of a real predator/prey relationship! I think this is is a wonderful jam game. I don't know the last game that had me cringing on the edge of my seat and hanging onto the keyboard like this. I went right down the center. iguana1.jpg The snakes are terrifying. iguana2.jpg Even when I just went back to check out this right side exploit (or survival of the fittest route, who can say) I was still sure so conservative- certain that a snake was gonna pop out and end me- phew. iguana3.jpg Also, pleased to play a 3d godot game! Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 25 22:10:52 | 7m 08s | Rebutia | ♥ 1 | Feels so good! The scale reminds me of Lawrence of Arabia in 70mm! Played on web- downloading now. After playing the dl- it is, as you said, smoother, even tighter gameplay, and the ability to turn was not working for me on web- it made me question why you had the crosshair- now i know. Really love the mood of this. Thanks for the game! I didn't get very far, but I will keep trying! rebutia.jpg |
| Apr 25 22:25:52 | 15m 00s | Polygons of Light | ♥ 3 | This was a challenge! Occasionally I was really confused as to where my character went to- Something as "simple" as a chime or a graphic letting me know might be a helpful addition. As far as the mechanic of staying in the shadows- I love it. I am just reading your notes- which I avoid as standard until after the game, but you address the issues I had with the web version. Over all a nice chill jam! Thanks! Oh, also- you should check out Retrobulbar- https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/retrobulbar it is different, but I thought of it immediately- probably because you share an abundance of yellow, but also- puzzles. |
| Apr 26 00:02:51 | 1h 36m | Necromancer | ♥ 2 | Have played a few times- first on web, without reading any grave stones. Realized I could do that and downloaded the windows version. Interesting- the mix of characters. Not quite sure how to form the "best" team, but I soldiered on- the graphic style is so cool and the audio creates a chilling mood. Love the digging mechanic- also, the art inside the graves is so cool. Accidentally hit ESC and quit the game- went back to web. Still not sure what combination of knaves and heroes might fit best together- I must have taken too long, after awhile, the WebGL crashed and I will read through the comments above and try .exe again. Really cool mood and story, and the necromancer is a great character! Would love a bit more of the battle at the end- even if only sound effects- something to stretch out the tension a little longer. Will you work on this anymore after the jam? Either way, thank you for the game! edit: After reading the comments- I will try again later. Again, so cool! |
| Apr 26 00:32:19 | 29m 28s | Zoo keeper | ♥ 3 | The art, sound, and story are serene. I only had an issue with controlling the crab- and understanding what to do with the pandas. All the other mini-games were spot on. Also, the end scenes for each game were so cool and thoughtful. turtles.jpg Thank you for a wonderful break from killin' stuff. |
| Apr 26 13:58:13 | 13h 25m | Kardiossomatic | ♥ 1 | Personally, I love the learning curve here. It took me a couple rounds to get into it- but the ambience created by your audio and graphics made that intriguing. The look and feel of this game is great, like a Lynchian nightmare produced by Midway Games in the 90's. Was rating high in my opinion, but the PC GAMER and PS1 ephemera took it up to all 5s. ;) Thank you and great work! dc.jpg |
| Apr 26 14:44:31 | 46m 18s | Alien Inquisitor | ♥ 0 | Love this idea! The concept is solid and has a lot of potential. Looking forward to see where you take this. |
| Apr 26 16:37:25 | 1h 52m | DANGER! Alien Cow Thieves! | ♥ 0 | Love the art in this- the wall jump and combo mechanic really allow for some frenzied gameplay. I am not a big fan of the WASD controls for this type of action, though I may be in the minority, but happy you had arrow keys as an option. Would love to see controller support. All-in-all a very solid entry and the soundtrack- especially the "game over" music- is epic. Great job and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 26 19:06:41 | 2h 29m | Zero | ♥ 1 | What a slaughter-house! First Pico8 game I've payed this jam. Love the art style. Just longing for music and/or sfx. Great little game- thank you! pico8.jpg |
| Apr 26 20:29:20 | 1h 22m | Nuke-A-Tron 2000 | ♥ 0 | Love this- def reminded me of Keep Talking- love the mini-games, but had a a few bugs with the web version. Couldn't get out of the tutorial screen. nuke.jpg Downloaded win vers and had a much better experience- though still some bugs- nuke2.jpg All-in-all great job! A much more pointed comedic take than Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. |
| Apr 26 20:36:38 | 7m 18s | Untitled Narrative Game | ♥ 1 | Gorgeous animations! Looking forward to additional development! |
| Apr 26 20:41:58 | 5m 20s | The Drown | ♥ 2 | So good- great story, tight gameplay, gorgeous graphics, and soundtrack! So much depth! I used the SMG class and never switched. I love the eyes in the water!! Löve2D?! Lua for the win! Thank you for the spooky game! |
| Apr 26 20:53:40 | 11m 42s | Type it alive | ♥ 0 | I'm proud! This is the first typing game I have played in LD46. I would have liked to spell words- maybe keywords that made sense with the scenario? Personally, I think that the movement kind of takes away from the typing game play- but it definitely makes the game more difficult! Great job entering the compo and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 26 21:03:06 | 9m 26s | A Fistful of Daisies | ♥ 1 | Really impressive for 24 hours! I love the western theme, the Leone reference, the character design, and the audio. And that Daisy is precious- I really wanted to save it. Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 26 21:30:42 | 27m 36s | The Seeker | ♥ 1 | Definitely one of my favorites this jam! Perfect mood- love the Quest for Fire scenario. The sprites are perfect- love that you have "bullets" raining from the sky. So many times, I just saw an opening and chose to take it, not knowing the outcome. At peace now, knowing the flame will go on to survive! Congratulations on such a well-rounded game! Thank you! |
| Apr 27 01:14:07 | 3h 43m | Magic Atoth | ♥ 1 | Fantastic! I really enjoyed how the story unfolded- and everything gelled; audio, art, and game play. I totally freaked out when things changed- how human of me. Wonderful work! Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 28 04:17:23 | 27h 03m | Keeping SNES Alive! | ♥ 1 | Yay SNES! Love the famicom style. Graphics were chunky fab. "Shlack" is my new fav sound effect- tho whne I played on HTML the sounds seemed to bug out. All-in-all, simple, nostalgic, and prolly one of the most real representations of the them this LD. Way to go! |
| Apr 28 04:30:55 | 13m 32s | Mama Birb | ♥ 0 | I didn't mind the controls- though if they were tightened up- I prolly wouldn't mind either. I found a couple bugs- when flying to the left- the mama birb thought it had landed in some areas of the sky birb1.jpg Then, the dead baby birb ate the food I was bringing to the live one- or is there a way to resuscitate the dead birb?! Also, it seemed as though it was singing- even though it was dead, or sleeping... birb2.jpg Great job on a pretty solid compo! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 28 04:36:11 | 5m 16s | City Defender | ♥ 0 | I was able to mash my way though this- love the graphics and the kind of rail-style shooter. Particle effects were nice, and all I really wanted was some tabulation of my progress, sound effects/music, and a more obvious and instant indicator of getting hit. Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 28 04:41:58 | 5m 47s | Once Bear Got a Job at Hell | ♥ 3 | So gorgeous. Fantastic animation and sound work. The style reminds me of http://www.joerichardson.games/ who you should check out if you haven't. Your mood is of course much more arcade-y and intense! Is it odd I was also reminded of Midsommar?! Awesome game! Thank you so much! |
| Apr 28 05:00:06 | 18m 08s | Social Distancing For LadyBugs | ♥ 1 | Congratulations on your first entry! I like how you had your tutorial on the end screen. The game loop was so quick, that this caused no frustration and added some humor. Great job! bugs.jpg |
| Apr 28 12:34:11 | 7h 34m | Unit 21 | ♥ 1 | Congratulations! Really impressive for a jam game! The art-style, concepty and quick- recalls Ashley Wood, and is really integrated well into the rest of the game. Smart move for a game jam and exudes a real confidence. I love how you created such a simple turn-based mechanic- reminds me of Advance Wars and Into the Breach, but with the tower defense angle- it was fun! Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 28 12:45:06 | 10m 55s | Tiger Chow | ♥ 2 | Simple- yes, but a great start and proof of concept. Bravo! Fun mini-games and could definitely use some more, but it's a compo! Extra points for Wolmar and that truck full of meat! Great job and thanks for the lil game! tiger_king.jpg |
| Apr 28 15:56:38 | 3h 11m | Last Healer | ♥ 0 | Hi! I am unable to play your game- I tried in Firefox, but it did not load. It loaded to the menu screen in Chrome, but I was unable to use any of the buttons. This error popped up when I tried in Microsoft Edge. lasthealer.jpg I will check back later to see if there is an update. Looking forward! |
| Apr 28 16:21:27 | 24m 49s | TRIBE | ♥ 1 | Love this game! A few bugs, but extremely playable! I started without reading your tutorial here and there was a bug in the in-game tutorial so I just went with it. Needless to say, I lost fairly quickly. Came back and starting fishing heavy and producing more villagers and it was smooth sailing from then on. Love the art and how you use the camera to increase tension! Sound effects and soundtrack are very on point. Like @lateralis said- the only time I was really disappointed is when it was all over. Fantastic what you were able to accomplish in so little time! Bravo! tribe.jpg |
| Apr 28 16:36:34 | 15m 07s | Corona Shopper | ♥ 0 | In all its simplicity, I found this game actually plays up the anxiety of shopping during a pandemic. The soundtrack with the incessant beeping and occasional cough is perfect. Juggling the list and basket and overlaying the two "inventories" really reminded me of real life shopping. I managed to get through without spraying anyone- which I figured was fairly rude. ;) Thanks for the game! congrads.jpg |
| Apr 28 16:50:06 | 13m 32s | Keep Meat Alive | ♥ 0 | Such an amazing entry. A lot going on here! I love the physics, art, soundtrack, and tight mechanics. Some of the game was hard to achieve with my laptop trackpad, but I will try again with a mouse- this entry earned it. I was only able to defeat 3- will see if I can beat that. meat.jpg Thanks for such a gross and moody lil charmer! Great job! |
| Apr 28 17:05:32 | 15m 26s | The 24th Century Surgeon | ♥ 0 | Really cool- wish we could have accomplished surgery like this in our game! Great job! |
| Apr 28 17:38:18 | 32m 46s | Pupa | ♥ 1 | So cool! Love the pico look! A very thoughtful take on the theme. Thank you for unlimited energy- without it, I would not have unlocked the simulation's conclusion. I think you should make this game into a Ted talk. |
| Apr 28 19:01:48 | 1h 23m | Pollice Verso | ♥ 0 | Fantastic use of theme to convey the politics of the arena! This is a propaganda tool like pro-wrestling! Amazing work for 3 days- I love gladiator games and I don't know of any game that does this quite like you do. My fav is prolly Domina, but just played this by @dummydojo (their entry for the last LD) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/45/the-legend-of-nudacus retiree.jpg Great job! I hope you put more into this! |
| Apr 28 19:15:05 | 13m 17s | FIREGUARD | ♥ 0 | Pretty! The controls seemed a little loose, but love the enemy character design, lighting, and fire effects. Also, you may want to figure out another way to keep me at the fire and I would love to be able to pick up multiple sticks. Great job! fire.jpg |
| Apr 28 19:34:55 | 19m 50s | Guardian of the Rite | ♥ 1 | Awesome and challenging little game! I have yet to summon the unclean one, but I'll be back to try again! Love the accurate reticle- and the weapons feel right- I just need to get gud! Thanks so much for the moody little game! |
| Apr 28 20:19:31 | 44m 36s | Meatball VS Gymzilla | ♥ 1 | Wow- really nice graphics and gameplay- you had me playing until I could beat Gymzilla, or is it Gylla?! Such a cool concept and pro execution! Thanks for the game! meatball.jpg |
| Apr 28 20:25:54 | 6m 23s | SkyBot Zombie | ♥ 0 | This really has some potential- I love how "free" the map seems, unlike most traditional bullet hell games which are kind of on rails. Had some issues with collision and draw- hit a few times by what must have been invisible bullets. Need a restart at the end with such a arcade-y game. Let me get back to dying! ;) I hope that you go further with this! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 28 20:36:15 | 10m 21s | Ignis Morty | ♥ 2 | I think with some tweaks to the character movement and camera would allow you to get away with an insta kill in the water pools. Have you seen this game? https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/the-seeker I love how much care you put into the story, sound, and graphics. The subtle high rez smoke/fog in the foreground is so cool! Also, love the "voice" of your character- it is easy to fall for Ignis Morty. All-in-all, great job and good luck! Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 28 20:46:32 | 10m 17s | STRAND·ED | ♥ 1 | Yeah, I would love keyboard controls as well! Such a gorgeous game, tho. Every element is amazing- very cool music! Super juicy as a whole and I think you knocked the death anim out of the park! Thanks for the game! space_ghost.jpg |
| Apr 28 21:18:54 | 32m 22s | ECHOSTATION | ♥ 0 | Wow- just so gorgeous- very tense! Love the look- I think I would enjoy more with a controller than keyboard. Very polished and professional entry! The echo-locator effect is a gem! Thanks so much for the game and congrats on creating such a dreadful mood! |
| Apr 29 01:20:47 | 4h 01m | 🐱 Cat Fun Factory | ♥ 1 | Beautiful art and UI! I would love a little more hand holding in the tutorial- and it seemed as though my cursor was offset so that it was difficult to control exactly where I wanted to put the pieces. Also, the music very well produced, but a little repetitive. Love the concept and can't wait to see where you take it! Thanks so much for the cat fun factory! |
| Apr 29 01:27:26 | 6m 39s | Alive | ♥ 1 | Nice! Very fast paced and funny! I definitely felt responsible for my companion. Great job on the theme music for one hour! Thanks so much for the game! |
| Apr 29 01:38:56 | 11m 30s | Angst | ♥ 6 | Wow- great job! This is really impressive as a whole- I am loving your art and the ambience that you created here. The stress is almost insurmountable! I also appreciated your well-developed menu and the journal as a mechanic. Thanks for the angst-y game! |
| Apr 29 13:03:28 | 11h 24m | THE PATH | ♥ 3 | Love what you have done here, against all opposition! Simple, but so effective. The concept and execution reminds me a bit of Oddworld or Badland. Fantastic pixel gore! Wonderful job and thanks for the game! chick.jpg |
| Apr 29 13:37:20 | 33m 52s | Exolvuntur | ♥ 1 | Very nice! Reminds me of Lasagna Boy and Luigi's mansion and Neverending Nightmares- so much art here! Fantastic character design, and pretty solid gameplay. The only thing I want is a "going upstairs" animation- "going down" looked great- especially sneaking! Great job, and thanks for the game!!! |
| Apr 30 06:12:14 | 16h 34m | Arex: Contain And Keep | ♥ 1 | Love everything about this! Such a well-rounded and functional game. Great art and so many cool animations. The world you have built here is awesome and led me to check out your other LD games. Revolutionaries and Pixels is super cool! Looking forward to more. Thanks for the game! |
| Apr 30 16:07:49 | 9h 55m | Stoker | ♥ 1 | Hectic! Fun little game! I had some issues getting started with HTML build- it seemed like it lost focus? I kept reloading and going back and forth into full-screen and I regained control. stoker.jpg That small issue aside, I like the controls- they are a little squirrel-y but with the pixel graphics, I assumed that is what you are going for- reminded me of 2600 or NES- The ragtime score really set the mood. I loved the graphics too, and appreciated the color and diversity of each train car. I think this could be a great prototype for a larger game- built around the history of train lines and robberies. Maybe instead of an endless points-based arcade style (I'm assuming, based on my play) you could start with a smaller train and get more cars as you progress? Bottom-line, you got me excited and started a brain-storm for sure! Bravo and congratulations on a fantastic game! |
| Apr 30 17:37:47 | 1h 29m | Stoke It ! - V1.3 | ♥ 2 | It was really difficult for me to try to pilot the ship and flip the levers and avoid the baddies. Actually, I never lived long enough to "Stoke It!" I almost feel like it would be more fun if the ship was on auto-pilot, or on rails- as crazy as that may sound. If only because of all the other details and game play you have crammed into the game. The graphics are amazing! The art-style def recalls an alt-history 1990's high-end computer game adaptation of Lynch's Dune. Can't wait to see what you do with this post jam. Congrats and thanks for the game! |
| Apr 30 17:52:34 | 14m 47s | Vote Jack! | ♥ 0 | Whoa- very intense little game! I played HTML and it worked very well. I love the controls. It reminded me of the sniper sequences in Golgo 13 for NES and La Croix Pan by Joshua Nuernberger. I love how the music rises- I only wish it kept going- maybe a Shepard's Tone would work better? Creating the illusion of constant rising? Less dynamic across the track tho- Very well done- thank you for the game! |
