| May 2 10:16:26 | DreamLoom | ♥ 2 | Wow! In my 5 years of Ludum Dare I've actually never encountered a game like this. From the moment the game opened, you could definetely feel the calmness you were going for, and man I gotta appreciate an entry like this. π Don't know how to really comment and critique the gameplay, it worked fine in my opinion. The colors and music really made this feel soothing and I can imagine some people could really like to play a game of this sort after a rough or busy day to just relax. So if that's what you guys were going for, then perfectly done! Very cool entry and congrats on making this! π | |
| May 3 05:16:54 | 19h 00m | Reigning Race | ♥ 1 | Hey! I'm not sure if im just completely dumb, but could you tell me the controls or how to play? Right now the only thing I can figure out how to do is press the end turn button π |
| May 3 05:34:56 | 18m 02s | Hedgie's Letter Hunt | ♥ 2 | Hey you! Awesome job on your first ever solo Ludum Dare entry π Sometimes it's very nice to play a basic 2D platformer, often you see games in LD where people (including myself often lol) try too hard to make the game stick out, but it's just actually more fun to play a polished game like this. Pretty nice level design for the levels that were in the game, there was no way to get stuck anywhere and overall the levels were great and you had a bit of variety in there! In my opinion the game could have been a lot harder, but at least I could complete a game now π The crows were also cool and that they made a sound when you pass it, little details like that make a lot in a game. Also great job on the animations!! If i could give you constructive critisicm, it would maybe be that (how I think) if you make a pixel art game, it would mayyybe be better to stay in that one style for the whole game? Or how I look at it the graphics could look better or more consistant if it was always the same pixel size and only pixel art. But I'm not hating on the graphics, in fact I liked them, but thats just how I think about it πΊ Also the movement didn't feel 100% responsive, but that could very well be a macbook's webgl problem, they rarely work as well with macOS as with windows for what I've seen. But as said before, really good work from you and you can be very proud of yourself and congrats on this LD entry! It was a really fun game π¦ |
| May 3 06:10:17 | 35m 21s | Seedling | ♥ 1 | Don't know why but this is one of my favorite LD entries of my five years of taking part! π The most relaxing game ever. What you said in the Wrap up section of the description makes a lot of sense. A game like this with quite simple mechanics, but somehow still very hooking gameplay is the way to go! Nailed it π For the first minute I needed to figure out how the game worked, but when I got it it was super nice! I maxed the upgrades and started to spam attempts, and when I realised in the bottom corner that you can disable the birds colliders it got a lot more fun π Before that it was kinda a burden to fly to 40k altitude and fall down hitting 145 birds on the way hehe ;D And dude I could listen to that music forever. So nice just watching the flower fly miles with that playing in the background. Literally perfect π΅ The oooonly thing even I could maybe say as another player has already said, I think a goal altitude would've been nice, but I get that the point is probably just relax and go wherever it happens to go. Well, anyways, one of my favorite entries of all time so great job π |
| May 4 07:06:14 | 24h 55m | Brass Monkeys | ♥ 1 | Hey! I happened to scroll the LD page on my phone and saw I could play this which was really nice. Controls worked well and were very responsive! Nothing to complain about on the mobile buildπ I tried this for around 10 minutes and couldn't beat it, I guess I should be even faster with how I collect the cannon balls, but certainly felt very hard!(which isnt necessarily a bad thing) The sound and animations were very good and I appreciate the front flip every time you jumpedπ I quite didn't catch how the Hit and Miss thing worked. Since the ship was shooting at us all the time, was it just random if it will hit or miss or did I miss something? Also I didnt use the downwards button a single time so I dont know if that maybe had something to do with itπ But yea there are some of my thoughts! Anyways it was really nice to play a game on mobile and it worked very well with no problems. Very good entry even though i couldnt beat the game ππͺ |
| May 7 14:27:32 | 79h 21m | Courier Cacophony | ♥ 1 | An actually a very solid puzzle game. Mechanics worked really nicely and they were taught in a clear way while progressing through the levels. Graphics and sounds felt a bit artificial, but served their job well enough. Color changes in background felt a bit intense. Perhaps the use of color could have been reserved for the puzzle icons instead? The levels seemed to be designed really well! It was challenging enough but we managed to get to 41 levels! Very nice puzzle entry by you, congrats on the job! π |
| May 7 14:44:56 | 17m 24s | Schooled | ♥ 2 | Hello! Very interesting game. After playing for a bit, we have some feedback! As people have commented, the swimming mechanics worked very smooth and controls were good. Absolutely nothing to complain about that! Firstly, we thought the instruction boxes were sort of irritatingly placed, and we don't think you would need the controls text box to be on the screen all the time. We also saw a flying fish above the water sometimes which was quite epic π For the graphics the fish' trails are really cool, and the smaller fish are very cool looking! Also the smaller fish swimming around you move in a fascinating way and seem realistic and epic. It would have been cool to see a bit more detail on the textures and something to make it look even more like you are in the water. It was also really cool that the fish changed form and started to look better after evolving! π³ Audio was pretty decent, maybe some water sound effects could have been cool and make it more immersive? Music was pretty nice and made for a good mood π Breeding points were quite easy to find since they were white, but maybe a little shader / animation / text above it could have been a nice addition, but it still worked well! π Also side note, it was cool that the plants in the water were moving a bit, small touches like that are very important! Last note, level upping could have been a bit faster, now it took a super long time to level up and it maybe doesn't give for the most fun gaming experience. But yeah here are our thoughts of the game. You did a great job and put up a nice game π See you around! |
| May 7 15:00:13 | 15m 17s | Olith | ♥ 1 | Hello! Here are some of our thoughts after playing! The audio was very nice, sound effects and music were good! Also the couple different soundtracks are cool and makes it nice to listen to. What we thought, was maybe the drone's movement could be a bit different to make it better. Maybe it could move for just a little bit after you stop pressing the moving button, since right now it stops right when you stop pressing it. Also, we think because the level is this long, it takes a very long time to play the same parts again if you die, and it may get kinda frustraiting π That's why checkpoints / faster movement for the drone would have been really nice. We did eventually beat the game though and get the package delivered for the mans brother π But yeah gameplay was very simple but it definetely worked, it just took a while to complete it :D At least it was decently difficult, it isn't necessarily a bad thing π But overall its a good entry and the game works fine, so good job on making the game man! π |
