From: http://momorgoth.itch.io/blockade I get "The developer has not uploaded a game"

I see the same thing... Hope you guys can get it straightened out. I just like how the title screen looks. lol

I get a donkey kong vibe there.

The music, the grungy pixel graphics and scanlines and very solid controls. I love it! A tiny but polished package.

Fun and addictive, a bit buggy when you restart a level but ok

Music is fantastic, but the game seems to run a little sluggishly, especially when pressing R to restart. The entire thing freezes for a bit while the music keeps going. Not bad! :D

good game but i realy dont like the audio

Hitting enemies with blocks doesn't feel satisfying enough; maybe if they exploded or something instead of just sliding off the stage it would be cooler.

I really like art and music, but this game in my browser is so laggy, that I had to restart the computer :c

THIS
GAME
ROCKS

The music, with good headphones, is INSANELY sick, the graphics are cool, and the mechanic is really solid! I don't have much to say about this game except good job! However, I do have one compliant: it does NOT run well on my computer, which is a somewhat-old (but not ancient) mac desktop. The first time I played it, the load time after resetting my first death took ages, and the second one took so long I think the game was frozen, so I had to force-quit it. I turned the graphics down to medium-level, which helped, but on my second run the game often slowed to a crawl (occasionally just freezing for like thirty seconds). I could have force-quit again and set it to the lowest graphics setting, but I don't need to because I'm giving very positive ratings anyway ;)

I would take advantage of Ludum Dare's patching policies to make it run better as soon as possible, but otherwise you've got an excellent game here, something that could definitely be developed beyond just this jam!

Tried 3 times but couldn't get around to playing your game. Sorry :(

Windows version not working. "Should have a Blockade_Data" folder next to the executable.

Very nice audio and glitch effect, I liked the game a lot, even though I think power ups/modifiers would have made it a great little thing with cool replayability

victor-rene 2015-04-23 12:21

Trying to rate web version, still unplayable. The keys do not respond.

kabutakogames 2015-04-23 13:14

Cute little game, the graphics work nicely

roryd 2015-04-23 15:52

Like Victor RENE, I can't play this game on Chrome due to the keys not responding.

dracomagna 2015-04-23 15:55

Wow really nice game! I love the concept. The art and the visual effect are really cool. However, I'm not a fan of the music but it's just a detail.
Well done!

pi_pi3 2015-04-24 16:35

This is fantastic. Like in Doctor-Who-Fantastic

sowihowl 2015-04-25 10:33

Nice game, a good work on polishing the user interface, effects, ... But I find it quite difficult to play

springcabal 2015-04-26 06:23

Not really fun (overly simplistic), but audio and mood is good, and especially graphics.

dkoding 2015-04-26 10:37

Great stuff.

Music is the best aspect of this game. Controls seem to me a little bit awkward. I like the minimalist aesthetic. Your project reminds me some old games on GameBoy. A good vibe. Neat ++

What a nice, glitchy visuals that makes consistent sense...then actual glitches that makes the game less fun. It's weird that slamming through the blocks is randomly possible, when it doesn't happen any other time. It makes the game terribly unpredictable and difficult to enjoy at times. Very addicting, though, I really liked it. Has some excellent replay value.

Fun game! I Really like the concept. Art is on point and so is the gameplay. Well done guys!
