| Apr 20 04:24:59 | The Ludum Dare Flame 🔥 | ♥ 3 | Really neat concept. You don't see multiplayer games in LD that often. One cheese I've found is to open up multiple tabs to get more wood faster :) Would love to see this reach a bunch of concurrent players at once. **Updated review**: I have now seen this reach a bunch of concurrent players at once, and it's just as glorious as I imagined. Really cool to see people taking on specialized roles to keep the fire alive most efficiently! | |
| Apr 20 04:30:11 | 5m 12s | Place me back | ♥ 0 | Simple game executed well with lots of polish and zero bugs (during my playthrough anyways). Everything you want to see from a jam game! |
| Apr 20 04:36:32 | 6m 21s | Corona Grocery Run | ♥ 1 | Neat little text game. Congrats on publishing your first game! |
| Apr 20 04:46:31 | 9m 59s | Run Robot Run! | ♥ 0 | Fun game! Some of the "upgrades" were a bit more annoying than challenging, but it's a unique concept. Good work! |
| Apr 20 04:49:27 | 2m 56s | BBYS | ♥ 1 | Neat concept! Pretty challenging but fun once I got the hang of the controls. Love the art style and the music! |
| Apr 20 04:58:29 | 9m 02s | Fuel Hungry | ♥ 2 | Looks like we had similar ideas about keeping light levels up :) Thought the platforming controls were clean, and I had fun with the game! |
| Apr 20 06:07:07 | 1h 08m | Hungry Flames | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept! As others have pointed out, gets pretty challenging! Movement felt a little fast and imprecise to me, but otherwise a fun game! |
| Apr 20 06:15:42 | 8m 35s | Jump to Die! | ♥ 1 | Cool twist on a common trope! The controls seem a bit fast and imprecise, but I don't have anyone to play with so I'm not sure how it would really turn out. |
| Apr 20 06:25:44 | 10m 02s | Tom Braider | ♥ 1 | As others mentioned, the trial-and-error was a bit frustrating. I thought the controls were nice and I liked the perspective, though! |
| Apr 20 06:28:42 | 2m 58s | Balloon Balloon! | ♥ 1 | The controls felt floaty and imprecise, but I liked the concept! Was fun to play even by myself :) |
| Apr 20 06:35:05 | 6m 23s | Social Distancing For LadyBugs | ♥ 2 | Neat concept. Congrats on completing your first game jam! |
| Apr 20 06:42:45 | 7m 40s | Feed My Frankenstein | ♥ 2 | Wow, this is a great entry! I love how each task requires different input to complete, and managing all your resources is challenging but fun. Art and sound were both nice and suited the game well. Overall great job! |
| Apr 20 06:46:22 | 3m 37s | Keep Them Alive | ♥ 1 | Cool game! I don't have anyone to play with, but I found it actually manageable with just myself working both controls. Got a similar feel to the game Overcooked. Great job for your first entry! |
| Apr 20 07:11:06 | 24m 44s | Somewhere Warmer | ♥ 1 | Creative use of physics makes quite a challenge! I found that going slow helps avoid most damage. Managed to get myself stuck in this position and stopped being able to move at all. 10/10 stuck.png |
| Apr 20 07:15:13 | 4m 07s | Partners | ♥ 0 | This game has a lot of potential. I really liked the exploration + gathering supplies aspect of it. Could use a graphics overhaul but your art is clear and conveys all the necessary information to the player, so props for that :) |
| Apr 20 17:13:56 | 9h 58m | Tiny Fragments | ♥ 1 | Cool concept, great execution! Art and music aren't bad either :) I think this has a lot of potential should you choose to extend it post-jam. |
| Apr 20 17:22:16 | 8m 20s | It's Alive! ...Keep it That Way | ♥ 1 | The CRT shader made the fancy text a little harder to read, but otherwise looked great and fit the style of the game perfectly. Neat concept and executed well! |
| Apr 20 17:57:33 | 35m 17s | Father... Musn't I Kill It? | ♥ 5 | Now that you've opened the game, you have no choice. You must kill it. Think you can escape by closing your browser window? You would be erasing this poor creature's existence - the equivalent of murder. Want to restart your computer? That's not gonna fly. Every action you take will result in your new friend's death. All the while, the little bug is hitting its head on your hammer, practically begging you to kill it. Teasing you. Taunting you. It's torment, but you can't. Murder is never right. As agonizing as it is to watch him fly back and forth, over and over, you can't bring yourself to drop the hammer. This tab will remain open in your browser for all eternity, lest you paint your hands red with the suffering of an innocent creature. This game is a trap. The only way you can remain clean is to not start the game to begin with. Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't play this game. ...10/10 |
| Apr 20 21:38:29 | 3h 40m | Body and Soul | ♥ 5 | This game is just as fun to play as it looks! Aesthetics are on-point in this game, and the music/sfx complemented the gameplay nicely. My only criticism is the "essence" or experience you get from enemies kinda looked like projectiles, and it took me a little bit to realize they weren't hurting me. Great seeing an upgrade system that adds new mechanics to the game aside from just "damage increase". All in all a well-made jam entry! |
| Apr 21 02:36:20 | 4h 57m | Keeping Your Fire Alive | ♥ 1 | The mood of this game is incredible. The atmospheric sounds combined with a simple, repetitive gameplay loop made it feel like a genuine horror game. I thought something was going to jump out at me if I took too long or chopped down that particular tree in the middle. :o The game lacks some features and content, but it's understandable given how late you pivoted away from your previous idea. One solid criticism I have is that the timed dialog made the ending especially slow. With no way to click through the dialog or speed it up, I got impatient and exited out early (I've read The Egg before so I'm pretty sure I know how it goes, but please tell me if you changed it!) Solid entry, atmosphere was great. Would love to see this expanded with more content! |
| Apr 21 04:51:05 | 2h 14m | Backcourt Brawlers | ♥ 1 | Cool concept! I really liked the grid-based selection for where to aim the ball. It was a bit hard at times to gauge the depth of the ball for timing, but overall a fun game. |
| Apr 21 04:55:44 | 4m 39s | LifeLine | ♥ 1 | Neat entry! I've played a lot of "dodge the obstacle" games, but I like how in this game you're encouraged to move around and not stay in the same place even if it's safe. One suggestion I have is to associate the controls with the direction of movement (i.e. if you used up/down arrows to correspond to moving the beat up/down). Overall a nice, simple, fun game! |
| Apr 21 05:03:38 | 7m 54s | Can't Control Cage | ♥ 0 | As others have suggested, some instructions would be nice, but a neat concept! I liked the animations as you move around the room idly. Somehow reached NaN% on day 1: nan.png |
| Apr 21 05:06:49 | 3m 11s | Cowboy and Robot | ♥ 1 | Interesting concept. I liked some of the graphics effects, like the cape flowing behind the player. Somehow I glitched the robot into one of the boxes, and thought I was unstoppable until the game ran out of memory: oom.png |
| Apr 21 05:11:47 | 4m 58s | Strazy Dazy | ♥ 4 | Cool concept, the gameplay felt pretty smooth and the music wasn't bad :) Some of the note combinations (like up+down) were very awkward to hit at the same time. And is it just me, or do you not actually have to hold down the key on sustained notes? Overall a pretty nice entry! |
| Apr 21 05:18:47 | 7m 00s | Prometheus | ♥ 1 | Well-done game! We had similar concepts of a diminishing light source :) Really enjoyed the platforming (especially the branching paths) and the hand-drawn style graphics were neat! A solid entry. |
| Apr 21 05:23:29 | 4m 42s | LIFE:anti-viral | ♥ 1 | Looks interesting, but I can't seem to get the game to run. It's stuck on the main menu with the music playing. RIP John Conway, he was a mathematics legend. :( |
| Apr 21 05:29:22 | 5m 53s | SlugBall | ♥ 0 | Neat concept! Started simple and got more complex with new mechanics as time went on. |
| Apr 21 05:32:31 | 3m 09s | Defend the swarm | ♥ 1 | Neat incremental type game! The controls felt clean and smooth. One suggestion is to add something to the background to make it easier to visualize how the player is moving relative to the world. |
| Apr 21 05:39:28 | 6m 57s | Unidentified Farming Object | ♥ 2 | Could use some shadows on the 3D models but I liked the art style! |
| Apr 21 05:43:01 | 3m 33s | Sheepdog | ♥ 1 | Cool game! Spammed bark the entire time. Sheep were difficult to corral but I guess that's the point. Graphics weren't bad. A nice entry! |
| Apr 21 05:47:23 | 4m 22s | > keep typing! | ♥ 2 | Interesting concept! Don't see many terminal-based games here. I found that some of the graphics get shifted around at different browser zoom levels. |
| Apr 21 05:50:48 | 3m 25s | Ducky's Day Out | ♥ 3 | Really cool concept! The interactions between the different animals lead to some creative solutions. |
| Apr 21 05:56:06 | 5m 18s | Mage or Trouble | ♥ 3 | Neat RPG-maker game! The art was great, and I like how many of the cutscenes auto-played some of the attacks as well. Solid entry! |
| Apr 21 06:00:24 | 4m 18s | Dragon Eggs: Greatest Hits Edition | ♥ 5 | Cool chess-like game! The controls were a bit difficult to understand at first (very little visual feedback) but it was fun nonetheless. I liked the dice rolling! |
| Apr 21 06:02:05 | 1m 41s | First Love / Late Spring | ♥ 0 | Really liked the art style on this one, and an interesting concept too! |
| Apr 21 06:05:28 | 3m 23s | A.R.S - Alien Rescue Simulator | ♥ 4 | Neat concept! I like the art style in this one, hearkens back to the good ol' days of flash. Fun entry! |
| Apr 21 06:08:21 | 2m 53s | The Spirit of Pharoah | ♥ 0 | Great job for your first project! |
| Apr 21 06:10:57 | 2m 36s | Facility Z-13 | ♥ 1 | Cool entry. Complexity is hard to manage in these game jams :) |
| Apr 21 07:08:38 | 57m 41s | Lay Down Your Roots | ♥ 2 | Wow, this was a really nice half-idle half-not game. Aesthetics were top-notch, and by the end of the game I ended up with a pretty cool-looking plant! Definitely one of my top jam entries this time around. |
| Apr 23 00:55:33 | 41h 46m | Circuit Break[out] | ♥ 2 | Really liked the art in this one, and the gameplay felt smooth too! Was kind of unclear when I could fire my laser (sometimes I pressed space and nothing happened despite having charge). As niterich said, the final boss could have more health. :) Great entry! |
| Apr 23 00:58:21 | 2m 48s | Keep Campfire On | ♥ 1 | Really liked the artwork in this one! I think the window size is too small on itch.io. The edges of the game are cut off. |
| Apr 23 01:01:39 | 3m 18s | Simon DJ | ♥ 1 | This game looks like it's pretty fun in VR! Wish I still had my headset. The art style fits the game's mood perfectly. |
| Apr 23 01:18:40 | 17m 01s | Stress Ball | ♥ 1 | Fun little game with simple but nice-looking graphics. I will say that hard platformers and RNG controls don't particularly mix well :) but I managed to beat it! I think decreasing the time from death to respawn would be an improvement. Nice entry! |
| Apr 23 01:21:42 | 3m 02s | The Given Path | ♥ 2 | Really like the draw-a-path movement setup! As others pointed out, the combat is a little confusing, but overall a cool entry. |
| Apr 23 01:43:19 | 21m 37s | Lucid Drifter | ♥ 1 | Wow, this game is freaking amazing. Beautiful graphics, great music, smooth gameplay, randomly-generated levels(?)... literally the only thing missing in this game is a death animation/transition to replay. Big Touhou vibes :) Hands-down my favorite entry so far. I hope you guys participate in future LDs because I want to play more of your games! |
| Apr 23 01:51:26 | 8m 07s | Save Grave Dave | ♥ 0 | Graphics were spot-on. Gameplay felt smooth, although I'm not sure how to lose? The guards didn't seem to do much aside from gasp when they saw me. Overall a solid entry! |
| Apr 23 01:55:01 | 3m 35s | Soul Survivor | ♥ 0 | I like how you move much faster than your soul, meaning the faster and more erratically you move, the more de-synced you get from your soul and the harder it is to control. Cool entry! |
| Apr 23 01:58:39 | 3m 38s | The Last Plant | ♥ 1 | Game was a tiny bit confusing due to having so many mechanisms in play, but I like the concept of it! Great job for your first jam. |
| Apr 23 02:06:31 | 7m 52s | Space Drone Guy | ♥ 1 | Really liked the graphics and the gameplay felt smooth as well! I think the aiming mechanic was interesting, but would have preferred being able to move the cursor wherever I want on the screen. Neat entry! I also had the same issues with keyboard input/canvas focus in my entry. This fixed it for me, maybe it'll help you too: https://github.com/itchio/itch.io/issues/388#issuecomment-371971451 |
| Apr 23 02:14:57 | 8m 26s | Idle Idol | ♥ 2 | Fun, crisp mechanics! Graphics were great too. Good stuff all around :) |
| Apr 23 02:21:59 | 7m 02s | STOoOpid Chicken | ♥ 0 | Pretty neat game once I realized you could re-use objects. As others pointed out, checkpoints would be nice. Cool entry! |
| Apr 23 02:29:12 | 7m 13s | Inkazimor | ♥ 2 | The game took a while to load for me, but the game was pretty fun! Very interesting art style, but I think it looks nice. |
| Apr 23 02:35:33 | 6m 21s | Burndown | ♥ 1 | Nice, simple game! The controls felt smooth, but sometimes the character didn't face the right direction, haha. Cool little game! |
| Apr 25 00:29:41 | 45h 54m | Tower Defence of the Heart | ♥ 1 | A fun, simple game with all the TD essentials. UI could be a little confusing to those who have not played many TD games, but to those who know the fundamentals it's probably a breath of relief to not be flooded with information. Solid entry! |
| May 5 18:34:36 | 258h 04m | Keep It Ticking! | ♥ 3 | Cool idea, great execution! Graphics and sound complement the gameplay well. |
| May 6 05:37:36 | 11h 03m | Keep What Alive | ♥ 3 | Cool entry, and interesting gameplay! I love the art style too. |
| May 6 06:00:58 | 23m 22s | What the Shell | ♥ 2 | A nice entry with a lot of character! Enemies could be a bit more varied, but I like the different kinds of towers. |
| May 8 19:03:08 | 61h 02m | Zoo keeper | ♥ 3 | Really cool entry! Love the minigame-centric gameplay, and the art style and music fit well with each other. |
