| Apr 28 17:00:55 | Deep down the asteroid | ♥ 2 | It's simple and effective, nice work! First attempt I scored 420pts and was tempted to call it at that ;) wasn't entirely sure when I would fall or not at first, but that became clear eventually. I particularly like the ennemy sprites! | |
| Apr 28 17:10:48 | 9m 53s | Objective Atlantis | ♥ 3 | Wow this was great! Kind of reminded me of Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, being in a cramped ship and running to different stations to deal with the outside world. That panicked multitasking vibe. I could imagine it working really well as a 2 player coop in that sense! |
| Apr 28 17:24:57 | 14m 09s | Dino Digging | ♥ 1 | Nice! This would make a really nice mobile game, with bite sized sessions. Good work! |
| Apr 28 17:33:38 | 8m 41s | EveryDay | ♥ 1 | That went dark VERY fast. I like the different approach, meta breaking the UI thing and the music switch was really effective. Good job! |
| Apr 28 17:44:14 | 10m 36s | Deep sleep | ♥ 2 | Yes really nice work! I love how each dream introduces a new mechanic. Really pretty visuals too! |
| Apr 28 17:48:41 | 4m 27s | Deeper and Deeper in the Woods | ♥ 1 | nice, love making sound a central mechanic! Could have used a couple more sounds in there to trick the player, right now it's just a matter of "do I hear the humming or the growling?", but a version with a humming wolf could be nice. Overall I like the idea, and it looks pretty too. |
| Apr 28 17:58:17 | 9m 36s | Journey for the Records of Remembrance | ♥ 2 | This was a fun one! I like the pinging on a cooldown mechanic. For my taste it was a bit too punishing to die so quickly. But all in all, I like it quite a lot. |
| Apr 28 18:06:57 | 8m 40s | Null_byte | ♥ 1 | Nice game! Left me wanting more. It may just be a detail, but I especially liked the transition effects between levels. Not entirely sure I needed the shooting to be literal guns if I'm honest, given that everything else had a nice kind of Thomas was Alone abstract quality to it. Good job overall! |
| Apr 29 09:58:07 | 15h 51m | Deep Dishpair | ♥ 1 | Very nice! I am a huge fan of overcooked, so this is right up my alley. Love the writing, it sets the tone well, and there's a fair amount of depth for a jam game! Great work! |
| Apr 29 10:08:24 | 10m 17s | Morning Shift | ♥ 1 | Wow the art in this was wonderful! Lots of attention to detail. The SFX were pretty sweet too (few things make me happier than a good sci-fi door sound). Not much in the way of gameplay, but it works as a short kind of narrative/interactive pretty pixel art thing. Good job! |
| Apr 29 10:19:36 | 11m 12s | The Deep Sorrow | ♥ 1 | Looks very pretty, nice self-explanatory puzzle mechanic, and what a vibe! Clement's music is particularly great too (#MusicWeeklies represent!) |
| Apr 29 10:35:24 | 15m 48s | The case of the door in the woods | ♥ 1 | Great stuff! Really love the art style and music, it sets a really nice mood. Out of interest, did you do anything in particular to get FMOD to play nice with WebGL? I've had a fair amounbt of trouble with it. Is it just using relatively short loops? |
| Apr 29 15:56:32 | 5h 21m | Deep Dreams | ♥ 3 | Very nice game! I like the idea of being kicked back to the previous level as a fail state, it really empasises the idea of layers. It's a detail, but the fact that the music slowed down to a conclusion on the win screen made the dynamic audio person in me very happy! Good job to all involved. |
| Apr 29 16:04:50 | 8m 18s | Treat Me Well | ♥ 0 | That was cute. Not sure I should be feeding it that much candy...I'm curious about where the narrative comes in in the final version. |
| Apr 29 16:09:52 | 5m 02s | Run Miner Joe | ♥ 1 | That screen shake was intense! Nice work, simple and effective idea. |
| Apr 29 16:14:28 | 4m 36s | 20,000 Shots Under the Seas | ♥ 1 | nice! If only I wasn't so terrible at bullet hell games... Loved the various ennemy behaviors, really changed things up and forced me to move in ways I wouldn't otherwise have. Great work! |
| Apr 29 16:21:33 | 7m 05s | Guardians of the Facility | ♥ 0 | The environments and creatures were very cool! I'm guessing that the random generation was in my favour because it basically had no challenge, just gross things waiting to me mercy killed, rather than moving towards me. Would have liked some ennemies to come from behind too, or like, drop down from the ceiling maybe? All in all, it had a cool creepy vibe to it, good job! |
| Apr 29 16:26:37 | 5m 04s | Project PANDORA | ♥ 1 | The lighting was pretty effective indeed. Music felt a bit out of place for my taste. All in all a nice entry. |
| Apr 29 16:31:42 | 5m 05s | Greg's Little Adventure | ♥ 1 | wait so the music is made by a generative system? That's super cool! Also, gotta love an anthropomorphic frog called Greg, you won me over just with that. |
| Apr 29 16:41:30 | 9m 48s | Deep Breath | ♥ 2 | wow what a pretty game! The gradually increasing weirdness from level to level is very well done (also in the audio). Really impressed by this (even though it was seriously hard at times) |
| Apr 29 21:35:17 | 4h 53m | Plague | ♥ 0 | that escalated fast... not sure I needed more virus related content this year, but the game is effective at causing that cascading sense of panic as you realise it's too late to contain the virus. Nice job! |
| Apr 29 21:43:53 | 8m 36s | Callisto | ♥ 1 | This was great! some super nice pixel art on the different creatures, and I loved the bubbles effect on the sideways motion. Enjoyed this a lot! |
| May 3 13:08:23 | 87h 24m | Last stop | ♥ 1 | I really like the rowing mechanic, and the character art is great too! I always love small narrative games where you have a simple action that keeps you busy while various dialogues happen. This feels like it could really become something cool with a bit more content! Great work. |
| May 3 13:14:57 | 6m 34s | Object LD48 | ♥ 1 | Very simple game, I enjoyed the alien design. I did get stuck in the geometry quite a lot, and an easier way to quit than tabbing out would be nice. |
| May 3 13:20:27 | 5m 30s | Sky Miner | ♥ 1 | Nice game! I enjoyed the upgrading, and relatively simple game loop. Not so sure about the choice of music. All in all, a good entry though! |
| May 3 13:28:45 | 8m 18s | Unanswerable Question | ♥ 1 | Nice! The harp playing when I converted people was a nice touch! A pretty solid entry, could have done without the long winded exposition at the beginning tbh. Great work overall! |
| May 3 17:02:28 | 3h 33m | River, Carry Me Away | ♥ 3 | Really nice game! The art is brilliant (I love the minimal approach to the water, really feels like a story book or something), nice music too. I can't say that I like the actual mechanic, it's not very compelling to just click on things over and over again. But a beautiful experience either way. |
| May 3 17:09:01 | 6m 33s | Afraid to Turn | ♥ 1 | Love the throwing mechanic, the parallax background, and the ambience. There was ONE footstep sound in your selection that stood out too much for my taste (an especially high gravelly one). Very nice entry, congrats! |
| May 3 17:26:04 | 17m 03s | Blackout | ♥ 6 | What a GORGEOUS game! This might be the favourite thing I've played from LD48 so far. The art is really nice, great atmosphere, very self aware and smart writing, and the music is wonderful too! Fabulous job to all involved! |
| May 5 10:36:34 | 41h 10m | Fairy Snares | ♥ 1 | Such a pretty game, and I quite liked the music too excellent work! |
| May 5 10:47:47 | 11m 13s | Surinapiri - Suruvuori | ♥ 2 | Nice DOOM vibes! I really enjoyed this one, straight forward fun FPS action! Great work |
| May 5 11:44:04 | 56m 17s | Mycelisation | ♥ 2 | Wow this was great! Really nice and simple mechanic, had that sweet boardgame vibe some 4X games can have. Very impressed with this, good job! |
| May 5 11:51:53 | 7m 49s | Deeper In The Night | ♥ 0 | Fabulous work! Really love this, pretty unusual to see folks using their own engine, and I thought the mechanics were effective and self explanatory. |
| May 5 12:00:42 | 8m 49s | LD48 Deep Lab Droid | ♥ 1 | Nice work, I like the details in the decor (posters etc...) It's clear that you ran out of time, but the premise is good and deserves to be developed further I'd say! |
| May 5 12:10:38 | 9m 56s | Corporate Mole | ♥ 1 | FANTASTIC game! This might be my favourite entry I've played so far! The espionage in a workplace theme is similar to what my team did, but this is extra whacky. Love the small talk lines too :) |
| May 5 12:15:37 | 4m 59s | Vertigo | ♥ 2 | Fun game! Nice music, good take on the theme, simple enough mechanics. Would like a slightly longer reach on the attack I think. Very nice entry, congrats! |
| May 5 12:17:51 | 2m 14s | Frog | ♥ 2 | So cool to make an NES rom! Great work, and mad props for working within those extra constraints! |
| May 5 12:34:23 | 16m 32s | Khazads | ♥ 1 | I enjoyed this one, thanks! Nice work, I like the art, and it was a pretty varied experience for a jam game. |
| May 5 12:48:22 | 13m 59s | Catlantis | ♥ 2 | Love this! Very cute artwork, the little intro comic was a nice touch, and fun mechanics to boot. A very strong entry, congrats! |
| May 5 12:57:22 | 9m 00s | Billy's Gone Again | ♥ 1 | Great entry! Love the variety of ennemies and weapons, it's simple, but adds depth. Congrats! |
| May 5 13:04:43 | 7m 21s | Dr.Pupper Heart Dogter MD | ♥ 0 | That was quite surreal, not quite sure what to make opf it (which is a good thing, I think). Good work! |
| May 5 13:13:20 | 8m 37s | Graphite Journey | ♥ 2 | GLORIOUS art style, some of the prettiest I've seen in this jam. I wish you had made all the font hand written too, it's the only thing that clashed. There's obviously not much gameplay here, but the world was very evocative. Very nice work! |
| May 5 13:21:43 | 8m 23s | Selkö | ♥ 3 | Brilliant game, very simple, meditative experience. It felt very complete with a few different small puzzles, and the amount of pretty artwork was really impressive. Really enjoyed this one, thanks! |
| May 5 13:24:19 | 2m 36s | Mystical Island | ♥ 1 | I died...a lot...But I love the idea, and there's lots of varied writing in here. I like that the running water kicks in when you find yourself close to a river. Nice entry all in all, congrats! |
| May 5 13:30:51 | 6m 32s | Asterisk | ♥ 3 | 5 audio people!!!??? That's a fascinating team lineup. Really enjoyed the game, had a few laughs at some of the voice lines and writing> A great entry, congrats to all! |
| May 5 13:39:11 | 8m 20s | Unto the Eight | ♥ 1 | I really enjoyed this, very evocative! It feels like a bigger world is being hinted at, and I do enjoy the survival mechanics combined with rogue-like stuff. Congrats! |
| May 5 14:22:30 | 43m 19s | Disco Inferno | ♥ 3 | Brilliant game! Really fun vibe, the variety of ennemies and associated guns keeps it interesting, and you really went the extra mile with that VO! Congrats! |
| May 5 14:29:02 | 6m 32s | My name ? | ♥ 2 | So many puzzles! That's really impressive for a jam game, really enjoyed it! Great work, loads of depth to explore here. |
| May 5 16:23:22 | 1h 54m | The Final Frontier | ♥ 1 | Really nice one! Simple mechanics, but effective, fits the theme well. Congrats on a very nice entry! |
| May 5 16:37:28 | 14m 06s | The Limbo Runner | ♥ 1 | I'm getting nightmare memories of QWOP from this...Great idea, very well executed, brilliant work (I'm a little ashamed about how long I spent trying the final over and over before rage quitting) |
| May 5 16:49:32 | 12m 04s | Blue Square and the Mystery Cave | ♥ 1 | That was fantastic! Really nice ramping up in the puzzle difficulty, interesting mechanic that you really pushed to cool places. The ending was a very nice touch, adds a tiny narrative twist to an otherwise abstract game. Great entry, congrats! |
| May 5 17:02:38 | 13m 06s | Ludu Hare and the Magical Carrot | ♥ 2 | That was delightful! Very cute art, straight forward mechanics, a good entry all round. Great work! |
| May 5 17:09:53 | 7m 15s | Deep into the vibe | ♥ 1 | Very nice! That beat is sweet (I knew it would be from the moment that first synth kicked in), love it! I like the mechanic, it feels like it deserves to be developed even further, almost feels like a rhythm game, and having things sync to your beat would take it to the next level(although...that's also a whole extra system to build) |
| May 5 17:26:01 | 16m 08s | 6 Feet Under | ♥ 3 | Great game! Really impressive for a jam! It feels great once you get the hang of the mechanic, and the audio filter when you're underground is a nice touch (I thought it might become annoying, but it worked), Congrats, VERY strong entry! |
| May 6 10:21:09 | 16h 55m | Don't Pull It Out | ♥ 1 | that was...different. An interesting take on the theme, I like the idea of trading health for damage output. But I would have liked more challenge, I never actually felt in danger, which is too bad for a game about slowly bleeding out. Nice work overall though! |
| May 6 10:39:17 | 18m 08s | HELL deep is your love? | ♥ 4 | Really nice game! Some cool pixel art (love those bat things!). I like the music, just REALLY wish it didn't restart every time I died. The little cutscene for falling is a nice touch too. Very nice entry, congrats to the whole team! |
| May 6 10:49:17 | 10m 00s | Falling Bot | ♥ 2 | Wow that was great! Really fun game, the tuning on the thrust vs gravity felt just right. Great 3D models too, very impressive visually. All in all, a very neat experience, congrats to the team! I agree with the comments saying the countdown at the beginning is too long and unnecessary (I just want to get back to playing asap after failing) |
| May 6 10:58:44 | 9m 27s | Trash`n`Roll | ♥ 0 | Took me a second to understand that I had to do a lot of clicking. A simple idea, interesting and different take on the theme. Feels like this could really be cool with a bit of extra polish! Congrats to the team. |
| May 6 11:09:58 | 11m 14s | Monkey Quest | ♥ 0 | The level of polish here is astounding! Really fun game, pretty art, nice audio design, and so much depth for a jam game! Very impressed, great work! |
| May 6 11:30:09 | 20m 11s | Boom | ♥ 0 | Nice one! The music changing with depth was a cool touch (although, I think I would have prefered it to feel more in continuity, rather than such a drastic change in style). A nice puzzle, pretty graphics. As soon as I saw Boom, I thought Nederlands. Gefeliciteerd, heele mooie entry! |
| May 11 12:48:24 | 121h 18m | Deeper Into The Mind | ♥ 2 | Nice one! Really enjoyed the music and SFX. I could have used some feedback about my health, and generally a sense of peril. It just felt like "Oh bullet hell, I guess I should avoid these", wasn't even sure I was getting damaged oir doing any damage back though. That being said, very nice work overall I'd say! |
| May 11 12:56:43 | 8m 19s | You Know The Drill | ♥ 2 | Nice game! It's a simple enough loop, but I like it! The digging and jetpack energy being the same resource is an interesting touch. I do wish there was a couple more sound effects in there, given that it's THE core mechanic, I could use more audio feedback from the drilling for example. Nice work overall, cute character art too! |
| May 11 13:04:37 | 7m 54s | PANEMUAN | ♥ 1 | really lovely art style on this one! The parallax scrolling is cool, and it's an interesting take on the theme. Congrats! |
| May 11 13:12:28 | 7m 51s | Woof need to go deeper | ♥ 1 | Really nice entry, gotto love those pooches! 3 different modes is impressive, and it's not common to go for muiltiplayer in a jam game, so that's commendable too. Nice work! |
| May 11 13:17:58 | 5m 30s | Debts and Pandamonium | ♥ 2 | Wow what am ambitious entry, lots going on in this one! I'm impressed with all the characters, writing etc... Good work! |
| May 11 13:36:33 | 18m 35s | Below the Ocean | ♥ 1 | Fantastic work, one of my favourite entries in this LD! Really complete experience, smart puzzle/level design, very well tuned, all in all I'm astonished! I want to play more of your games now! |
| May 11 14:00:54 | 24m 21s | Corla | ♥ 2 | Brilliant! Really impressive work for a jam game, lovely mechanics, feels like with some polish this could be worthy of a proper release. I got quite addicted... Congrats, one of my favourites from this LD. |
| May 11 14:11:29 | 10m 35s | Carpet Flea | ♥ 1 | Great game! Really enjoyed the different platforms move when you use different abilities, very smart mechanic. It did feel a little bit floaty and therefor punishing to me at times, but all in all, I'm very impressed with the game. Congrats! |
| May 13 12:26:46 | 46h 15m | Deeply Organic | ♥ 2 | That's a really impressive amount of work for a jam game. So many different mini games! It's also nice to see a different take on the theme. Congrats! |
| May 13 12:31:17 | 4m 31s | Deep Pocket Digs | ♥ 1 | Some cool ideas here. I especially like the points being affected by physics and having to avoid dropping them. It feels like a novel mechanic that could really be interesting if you pushed it further. Congrats on the entry! |
| May 13 12:44:02 | 12m 45s | Crust | ♥ 4 | This was fantastic! Really like the Lovecraftian imagery, the art and music are on point (got some Vangelis vibes). Really good entry, congrats! |
| May 13 12:55:44 | 11m 42s | The Squeaky Affair | ♥ 1 | Great game! Really simple but satisfying puzzle mechanic that supports the theme, looks great too. Really impressed with this, congrats! |
| May 13 16:07:17 | 3h 11m | Boombox | ♥ 4 | What a fantastic game! Really well polished, and seriously addictive too. I'm very impressed with this one, congrats! |
| May 13 16:13:17 | 6m 00s | Mandragorae Somnus | ♥ 1 | Very nice, I've seen a few roots digging for water games in this LD, and this is one of the nicer ones. The mandrake is a nice twist to that theme. Good work, congrats! |
