This is a very meta game. It's sorta like after the Ludum Dare when you have to delete 50 downloaded games off your desktop / out of your download folder. A lot of the icons were pretty funny references and all in all a solid entry.
I like the music the most :)
it's was funny :3
just as doitle says it's look like after the LD and it's make it more fun.
Favorite so far! Fun graphics, nice physics, and solid game.
Pretty cool! great concept. very polished
Amusing, fun game. However, I felt that I was repeating the same challenges multiple times, but with different characters that all functioned in the same way. Having some sort of interaction between icons would have been very effective.
This is a hilarious game. Great little icons. Music is fun. Gameplay is a bit wonky though. The collision detection seems to be a big square around the icons.
Very funny and efficient game! I really like the pysic of icons. Nice music and nice retro graphics. Adding a "time attack" mode or something like that would have made this game perfect! Nice job!
Love the puns! Bonus points for that!
Nice idea and graphics!
Audio is fun, reminds me my childhood and my sega md2 ;)
But I had an issue, when I missed a trashcan icon stuck in a lower right corner
This is really clever idea. Fun!
This game rules. I love the controls, music, and sound. Graphics are cute.
A++
Sooooo slipperyyyyyyy! I suppose that was what you were going for, though, heh. I appreciated that it took place on one 'screen'. I'm not really one for the action-games-you-need-to-practice-a-lot, but this seems good enough for what it is.
Very funny game!! Love the idea and the execution!! Also very difficult sometimes...
Thanks for rating my game, Four Seasons!
I really loved this, especially the graphics and the little puns. I felt bad throwing away Ludum Dare 31 though! Loved it.
Very fun game !
The elasticity and the bounce against the wall are both challenging and very satisfying to use.
The animation, music and text work really well together too :)
Excellent game! I loved the recycle bin theme, and the name puns were awesome :P I loved the art of the icons, but the red blocks could've used some more polishing though. The movement is really good. One of the best so far, congrats :)
Health 61/coins 26.
Seriously, loved this. Amazing music for your first time.
Really had fun with this, the tutorialization with the icon names was brilliant, and that last icon haha perfect. Great entry :D
Nice music and mood. I kept playing for the app names
nice concept!
I wish that would be standard mechanics for Windows - cleaning desk will be much more fun!
Nice and fun, good idea
Clever use of the theme! As far as gameplay is concerned, I think adding in safe blocks you could bounce off and a time attack mode would be a nice improvement, so players have an incentive to bounce their icons off stuff to keep their speed up, rather than just taking it slow. Also, some of the icons have hard to figure out hitboxes. Perhaps adding a highlight on the selected file could help with that!
Nice work with the music too!
Clever and funny idea for a game. I enjoyed it.
Basic game.
So awesome :D Great idea, looks cool and makes lots of fun playing it.
Hi there. Like the graphics and tutorial approach. Did about 8 levels. Love the twangy/slappy bass and the gentle round sounds from the icons. Good job!
I laughed alot playing this little game. The Browser McCloud icon was my favourite^^ Only thing I would want to see is a time-trial or something similar and perhaps get higher score based on time and life points left.
Overall a very enjoyable entry! Thanks.
Grappling with the intentionally floaty controls was really fun. It would be cool to have a timer, so players can't just inch along really slowly through the levels. Nice work!
Goddamn lovely! I've been play this game about 1 hour!)))
I like this clipboard style
fun little game. Pretty funny too! Great play on the theme. Music was good, but got a little repetitive after a while. Graphics are cool too, feels like an old windows 1.0 desktop. Great effort overall.
Cute! Maybe a time-based challenge or some variation in the gameplay would make it even more fun.
Love the style, very polished. I also appreciate the level of meta that's going on here. A game on a screen on a screen about deleting LD games...
One very minor nitpick I have is that the hitbox of the icons is always a fixed square, even if the icons themselves aren't. This didn't really become obvious until the C-- Nerd Cred icon, but it made things a bit harder. One easy fix would be to highlight the hitbox when you click on an icon, like when you click on icons on your real desktop. Just an idea :P
Great entry! Seems like there's also a lot of room for extension, the gameplay obviously calls for moving obstacles next. :)
Great particle effects and I liked the bouncing mechanic and take on theme :)
This was a cute idea, good job!
The game is VERY generous with the lives; even on very horrible runs on my part I could finish them. If it had fewer lives, it would have been a very interesting test in patience. Also, as other people have mentioned before, a time attack mode would have been perfect for this game.
On the plus side: controls are slippery in a good way (enough to lose control if you're not careful), the music is spot on and the icons are quite fun. Good job! ^^
Off-topic for everyone: You should try syncing your movements with the music and the Mood gets a 6/5 :D
Would have liked more mechanics, just the bouncing and "red zones" got a little repetitive after several levels.
Nice concept, which fits very well with the theme!
The icon names are pretty funny hahaha xD Also, I liked the music and your pixelart graphics. Maybe a bitmap font would fit better with the graphics ^^ And the best is the snowman at the end!! ☃
* Congrats for your first fully completed game jam entry. I did it on my third attempt.
The theme and the puns were well-handled. I also liked the way you made the filenames a kind of tutorial. Good first attempt at making music! The one thing I'd suggest is normalising the volume by checking how loud it is compared to other applications. (A small issue, really.)
This was fun, and a great idea! The hitboxes seemed to be a bit too big.
I wish I could clean my own desktop like that! Sadly, the graphics are not as strong as the idea.
Funny little game! I Included it in part 16 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/3EfYtGD2H88
Funny referencing to apps and games. Graphics reminded me of 90's desktop and the music enhances the game really nicely.
