I like this! Pretty cool set of challenges. +1

netguy204 2013-04-29 11:22

Yeah! Nice work. Love the different challenges and the general feel of playfulness. You did good work.

tiffi 2013-04-29 11:23

I like the game(s), good idea

finefin 2013-04-29 11:25

yep, nice collection of minimalistic minigames.
I like the music and the humor of the game-dev-cutscenes :)

taylorlunt 2013-04-29 22:49

I liked it, pretty good game.

fullmontis 2013-04-29 22:59

The intro made me LOL. The gameplay is great, simple yet fun, as it should be. Graphics and sould effects are very cool. Good job!

Fun, but can be a little hard. Very cool.

Nice work

Lovely game! keep up the good work.

rujomarco 2013-04-30 12:57

excellent entry, really complete and theme fitting

zillix 2013-05-01 04:42

very unique! the simple gameplay works well, and the sounds and aesthetic were fantastic

Amazing theme usage. 5/5 on fun. Considering theme, one of the best games on LD26 for no doubt.

Maybe it's just me, but I found the mini-games difficult. XD It was immersive and challenging, nonetheless.

And the self awareness of the whole game made for some very nice humor. XD

Loved the idea and the mood, the graphics and the music. The minigames were challenging, but on my machine (Linux with ff, chrome or opera), the gameplay was kind of "jumpy" and the response somehow sluggish, so I had to give up on the 4th mini-game.

f7f5 2013-05-01 19:04

Actually, just tried again after a reboot and the "sluggishness" was gone. My problem.

Really fun game(s), played through the whole thing. Great idea and funny story. Great variation.

thephantom 2013-05-02 08:16

loved it especially the text :) great game

prelucid 2013-05-02 23:39

Cool idea OP, but it made me go crazy by the end!

umu 2013-05-02 23:43

This...this was a sendup of the theme right? Or...I don't know.

Extremely well done. I'm annoyed at how clever I thought this was, which I presume is the point. The text did get a bit difficult to read eventually. My head was starting to explode.

vrinek 2013-05-02 23:50

This was a very good compilation. I would love to see this game in a more complete state after the competition.

There's a nice message here about game development, plus it was funny and the games were creative.

Still, the second game didn't work for me. After clearing all the shapes, it wouldn't let me advance to the next stage, just kept replaying the second game over and over.

Nice idea, nice thougths about minimalism, well implemented. It looks pretty clean and polished. What imo could be improved : a bit less talking (very long to read all the text), change music between minigames ? (I'm not sure it's a good idea, but it may worth trying).
very good overall, thanks for the game !

psenfilip 2013-05-03 13:06

I enjoyed a couple of runs.

I don't get the instructions text plus walk to the right screens. I think they are really not needed.

Think the diamonds level difficulty set is just a tad off. The red - instant-incinerate-you - blocks get in the way sometimes in a unforgiving manner.

The music fits your game but gets repetitive.

pikmin4000 2013-05-04 04:02

Thanks for playing/rating my game! Your game is incredibly unique and creative, I find it hard to believe all of it was made in only 48 hours. Well anyways, great graphics/music, with the exception that your main character doesn't have any walking animation. The games have a good progression system, and could use some tweaking, but other than that- fantastic varied gameplay

loxo 2013-05-05 11:48

Great idea and good implementation. Really challenging game.

krasse 2013-05-07 21:14

Very clever idea!

atraxgames 2013-05-08 19:31

Very fun, and cool music!

kill0u 2013-05-09 12:29

Love it :)

avidgamernino 2013-05-10 23:45

Great take on the theme, I like how there a different games.

sylvain-p 2013-05-13 22:13

Cool mini-games, great entry. I will read your construct code if it's not disturb you.

toadfrogs 2013-05-14 11:46

Thanks guys for playing and rating the game... I hope you guys enjoyed my 2 days of hardwork hehe... I hope the others will do it too :D

Sylvain.p - Hey, not a problem... That's why I've shared the source code of this game. ;)

captain_genial 2013-05-20 22:03

I like the idea, but the shoot'em up is really hard ! O.O
It's fun, a bit too fast to read text (maybe because I kept the button pressed)

Great Job !

davidpeter 2013-05-20 23:46

Clicking the squares is too challenging on a trackpad :(
