Loved it.

Loved the concept. It was a lot of fun bouncing between all the worlds. The inclusion of DDR made me smile. Solid game!

I really enjoyed this game. I'm totally going to play it again.

The platformer aspect was really difficult and could go for some fine-tuning.

The breakout aspect sent me straight to a gameover screen after I broke a few blocks. I think it was when I collected a platformer icon.

shatterhand 2014-08-25 04:05

Doobie, aren't you sure you just lost all energy in one of the worlds?

The platform section indeed need some fine-tuing, but the time ended :)

Loved how you incorporated so may modes, but the controls for the platformer were kinda janky.

shatterhand 2014-08-25 04:53

There's too much inertia on it.
I should have slowed down the speed of the character a little bit there. Oh well.

Splitting a Ludum Dare entry into 5 different minigames sounds like a recipe for very low quality, but you actually managed to make each game fun and somewhat polished! Each minigame had me engaged rather than just going through the motions which definitely says something. Good job!

Great game, and great use of the theme!

ludipe 2014-08-25 14:00

Cool concecpt, must have been hard to take care of all the mechanics.

elkiwydev 2014-08-25 15:09

I simply got stuck in the second level in a loop...Also I hate blockbreacker game but that is only personal taste

denisre3 2014-08-25 21:04

The game is really fun, I cannot belive you made all this in 48 hours.

crazyrems 2014-08-25 21:09

The gameplay is a bit too fast. The concept is quite nice, pretty design.

docjekyll 2014-08-26 08:29

Great interpretation of the theme!

There are a lot of gameplay mechanics you implemented here in a short amount of time. So while each one could use refinement, it's a very solid entry. Great job!

This is a good game that could be great! Some tweaking could bring it all together nicely.

Found Footage...
Found Gaming...
Like Wreck it Ralph...

You can't use orginal asset but it could be a real fun metagame with the original asset of inspiring game.

It could maybe be more interesting to no pass through a hub, but maybe use a zapping effect like a switch.

The story is really nice, the game is basic, but it give something really deep! ;)

And also made 5 game instead of one, even if they are classical, that's impressive.

Nice multi-game. Concept well implemented. And yeah, some kind of tutorial is really missed here :3

killswitch 2014-08-27 10:00

Best game I've played so far: a platformer, a shoot 'em up, a racer, a rhythm game, and ball-and-paddle.

synchingfeeling 2014-08-27 21:13

That was really fun, felt like I was spinning plates.

aeveis 2014-08-28 03:50

my score was 8540. Impressive that you got all the games in!

shatterhand 2014-08-28 21:19

My best score is around 21000 , but I am the guy who created the game, hehe :)

peerplay 2014-08-28 22:24

Really fun game. Overall 5/5, I love the idea of scoring life in a minigame for other minigames. The only thing I didn't like was the inconsistency of graphics, and the audio/music. Though to make 5 mini games in 48hours, hats off ;)

thecolorhacker 2014-08-28 22:58

Nice entry and good idea. Platformer was very difficult.

androniq 2014-08-29 13:55

Nice idea. Very impressive to finish 5 games in one and all of them playable.

waynaul 2014-08-30 06:57

I like the sound and animation when warping to another world. It reminds me of the old Atari games. Great implementation of the different game genres.

kingbolonzo 2014-09-01 08:28

OWWW MY EYES!!! haha nice job it was real fun till I hit that eve that made my eyes fall out haha addictive

wheelsx 2014-09-02 18:05

Great concept.

whalebot 2014-09-02 18:19

While some people struggle to make one simple game for this jam, you managed to pull off making 5 (6 counting the Game HUB). Nice work! I just wish there was a little more predictability with which power-ups you were getting so you could have more control over keeping yourself alive.

shatterhand 2014-09-04 14:17

Whalebot, they are actually very easy to predict. Each world only spams power-ups for 2 other 2 worlds (Check beloew the energy bar of one world to see what powerups it spams).

And they are always spammed at the same order and at the same rate.

jonathang 2014-09-05 17:06

Very impressive effort, any one of these games would have been a great entry, but getting the whole collection done in that time limit is amazing. Interesting theme use, good thought put into the graphics and gameplay and nice music and appropriate sounds. Top job!

cosmologicon 2014-09-09 20:22

Great concept, pretty well executed for the most part. Just needs overall balancing and progression of difficulty.

zatyka 2014-09-12 00:27

Each mini-game could use some polish, but together, it's impressive for 48 hours.
