| Jan 10 19:08:20 | Dead Earnest | ♥ 1 | Well done! The voxel look/engine really works for what you're going for, and it's impressive how well it runs even in-browser. Feels like a pretty strong Minecraft influence in terms of the look and feel, but doing it in an isometric view makes it feel fresh even though it's something most people are already familiar with. The gameplay itself is a little thin, but what's there is well executed. Not super clear what the end goal is, or to what extent I'm making progress towards it, but it feels good, and is solid for a weekend's worth of effort. Nice work! | |
| Jan 10 20:59:56 | 1h 51m | Hector the Apothecary | ♥ 1 | Impressive game! In true Ludum Dare form, I am not 100% sure what the goal is, or what many of the elements do in the actual game, but the mechanics around them are all very solid. Strong vibe, excellent visual and sonic identity, really complete-feeling experience. I've never worked with Unity before - how much of what's there e.g. modals, interaction events etc. come from Unity tooling, and how much did you have to write yourself? All of my (admittedly limited) experience making games has been in LibGDX - curious to learn about the process with other engines/toolsets |
| Jan 10 22:29:05 | 1h 29m | Bow Knight Drifter | ♥ 2 | Nice work! The art and sound/music were spot on for the feel/genre, and the gameplay mechanics were intuitive and actually fun to use. The walking/swinging felt a little clunky, but it's understandable given the constraints of the LD jam format. It's a solid submission overall, but for being a 2-person team, it's extremely impressive output for a single weekend project. Little things to simplify the experience, like, having the merchant's list appear automatically whenever you approach, are nice user-experience touches that really make things feel smooth. Job well done. |
| Jan 12 20:09:13 | 45h 40m | Crop Rush | ♥ 1 | For being such a simple-looking game, this is a surprisingly enjoyable gaming experience. Nothing fancy, but extremely well executed for what it is, and it successfully induces the "just one more try" compulsion from the jump. Graphics aren't mind-blowing but work very well with the format, and the sound/audio is simple but effective. The little snip-snip sounds are very satisfying, and the minimal musical backdrop make it easy to zone out (or zone in?) on the gameplay itself. Well done! |
