| Oct 3 01:19:38 | Impending Doom of a Thousand Kitties | ♥ 4 | This is such a cute game! Cutest sprites ever I love it and the *meow*, soooo cutee!! Btw, you can patch the awkward embedding! Directly modifying these two width and height lines to the values shown allows the embed to fit in Ludum Dare's embed. ```JavaScript /// ... code above ... canvas.style.width = "925px"; canvas.style.height = "512px"; } /// ... code below ... ``` | |
| Oct 3 01:36:38 | 17m 00s | Radar Rider | ♥ 4 | This is a really cool concept, the introduction of the alien spaceship was so oddly terrifying too, where is it?? If you continue on this game, I'd recommend some quiet/ambient spacey music to fill out the silence between pings, or even just a quiet hum to make it more eerie. |
| Oct 3 01:44:43 | 8m 05s | One Shot Death | ♥ 2 | The variety in the bosses was fun, especially the ones that make you aim *just* right. The explosions when the enemy dies is also a nice touch that may or may not have gotten me several times. On the critique side, the audio's fine, and art definitely needs work, but there is never a question in how to play the game which is good. |
| Oct 3 18:45:36 | 17h 00m | Nuke Yourself to Alpha Centauri! | ♥ 0 | As a fellow astronomy/cosmology nerd, I love this concept and that introduction text is quite funny in my opinion. However, I must say the controls were not very intuitive, and I never figured out how to steer (from what I read in other comments, it's broken in Firefox). |
| Oct 3 19:00:25 | 14m 49s | Satellite commander | ♥ 1 | This is a really entertaining game, especially if you understand orbital mechanics. It's difficult but I think that makes it fun! |
| Oct 3 19:17:34 | 17m 09s | Supply Chain | ♥ 1 | This is a very visually appealing game, very clean looking. It took me like 5 minutes to figure out how to connect the nodes, even with instructions (people tend to skim large text blocks), so if you were to come back to developing this game, I'd recommend building instructions into the gameplay (eg. mouse icon dragging between two nodes or something). |
| Oct 3 19:28:18 | 10m 44s | Card Empires | ♥ 3 | I never would've thought to make a turn based game with the 10 second timer, very clever. It is surprising how much difficulty that emerges from those simple rules. Nice job this year. Oh yeah, and the UI design is very navigable and satisfying to use, can't go wrong with good UI design. |
| Oct 3 19:38:24 | 10m 06s | Hovering Bird | ♥ 1 | This is cool, I didn't expect to see any pen and paper games. It's a very interesting thing to see a game where you have to think and analyze all the things that could happen next, I love that aspect of this. I kinda wonder what the optimal strategy is to have the highest probability of success. |
| Oct 3 19:49:34 | 11m 10s | The Gemancipator | ♥ 0 | It looks nice and feels satisfying to explode things, but I couldn't understand what clicks were causing them to explode (eg. matching seems broken: If I click on a red gem near other red gems, they may not explode, but some other gem surrounded by gems of other colors, when clicked don't explode). One thing this game definitely does have going for it is that it is 1: satisfying to explode things, 2: the nostalgia of the old mobile games like this definitely kicks in. Overall, enjoyable, but confusing. |
| Oct 3 19:55:55 | 6m 21s | BOOMBOX TERMINAL | ♥ 1 | This is a fun game, the news entries are funny too lol. |
| Oct 3 20:02:08 | 6m 13s | Lighthouse | ♥ 1 | This game looks amazing! You really set the mood well with the thunder and rain. |
| Oct 3 20:09:10 | 7m 02s | Time To Live: 10 | ♥ 1 | This is one of the best uses of the theme I've seen yet, the way you have to think through the puzzles is fun. I must say though, the controls were very awkward and I couldn't always jump when I should've been able to. |
| Oct 3 20:17:14 | 8m 04s | Jekyll and Hide | ♥ 2 | This is so innovative, works very well with the theme while feeling like it's own game that could very easily stand on its own without the theme, amazing work. Also, I'd say that the sprite art is pretty cool (the blood made me feel so bad when I killed nooo (nice work again lol)). |
| Oct 4 23:15:49 | 26h 58m | The CyberZapper | ♥ 0 | This hast to be one of the games with some of the best graphics yet, its amazing that so much cool art was done in such a short time. Although, I'm not sure what I broke because I seemed to be stuck in an infinite loop of not being able to see and the timer counting into the negatives! Probably because it froze here: [Screenshot 2022-10-04 191428.jpg](///raw/c31/82/z/522fa.jpg). Other than that bug, though the gameplay was quite fun! |
| Oct 4 23:37:31 | 21m 42s | The book of time magic | ♥ 1 | This game is so addicting with the combining logic. And I love the voiced sound effects, so funny lol. I spent way too much time on this game lol. Although, I must complain that between level ups the new cards sometimes being incompatible with the old cards (such as any prime number, like 3 or 5) and this leads to small cards that you can't effectively use or get rid of, but this is kindof a nitpick. Also mention of the name bob reminds me of a few years back when I made the game "Bob the time travelling square" lol |
| Oct 4 23:52:38 | 15m 07s | Cat Wave RUN | ♥ 0 | This is another very unique and addicting game. The slime killing mechanic was definitely oddly satisfying, like some kind of rhythm game without rhythm or something lol. But with slimes sometimes seem like you can just go around them instead of battle. Also I almost beat your record:Screenshot 2022-10-04 194633.jpg |
| Oct 5 00:03:53 | 11m 15s | Drone TD | ♥ 5 | This was a fun game in my opinion. It's a bit confusing to get started, but then when you figure out what's going on it begins to get quite interesting. Nice work this year! |
| Oct 5 00:14:10 | 10m 17s | [X-ED OUT] | ♥ 3 | This game is soo satisfying to play, once you get started you don't want to stop until you've finally lost. I made it 15 waves. The splat, the screen shake and everything is just so oddly satisfying to me. Nice work! |
| Oct 5 00:20:34 | 6m 24s | The Curse of the Four Towers | ♥ 0 | That is quite a neat effect, swapping the enemies every ten seconds, and it makes for very interesting gameplay. Nice job! |
| Oct 5 00:33:14 | 12m 40s | Sprawl: A cyberpunk interactive graphic novel | ♥ 0 | Wow that's interesting, quite the unique use of pdfs and unique kind of entry and excellent storytelling, especially with the use of the AI's variability in output. This really shows what AI art can and should be used for. Very creative, I love it! |
| Oct 5 00:41:35 | 8m 21s | autoball | ♥ 1 | Top tier game, so addictive, I may take this with me to play in class its so good. Clean, innovative, unique. Love it! |
| Oct 5 22:01:28 | 21h 19m | RoadFromHell | ♥ 2 | The art and sound are both very good but it's so incredibly difficult to pass even the first level. The option for checkpoints would be nice, or refinement of the hitboxes and movement could help. |
